[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mazensahlieh:
is it ok if the download paused then i resumed it then i flash the ftf?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zjarkov:
Check MD5 sum of downloaded file ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mazensahlieh:
sorry for the naive questions but the downloaded file is zip how to change it to ftf so i can flash it? and how can i check the MD5 sum?

edit: i managed to make an ftf file using (Bundle Creation) in flashtool, but how can i know for sure that its not corrupted?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] slackerzz:
to check md5 google for md5sums.exe, it must be f6989bc761da3bd7e48e6cd08a69fcb2

then to get the ftf simply extract the zip (i zipped it to save some MB of traffic)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] qhuinzy_09:
this is the one that i'm looking for ..

just ask something ..

flashing this file in sola will revert my sola to stock rom ?

cause i delete my firmware back up after i intall ultimate sola rom
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] slackerzz:
Yes, like a repair with SUS
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] qhuinzy_09:
thanks buddy this is a lifesaver for my phone

---------- Post added at 04:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 AM ----------

is this the method that i will use to flash this?

Once u have the ftf file and flashtool

Install flashtool in any drive lets say c drive

Go to c / flashtool / firmware

In the firmware folder place ftf file

Now go to c / flashtool / driver

And install driver for xperia sola

Now open flashtool

( make sure ur device is off and not connected to ur pc)

Click on thunder icon

Select flashmode

Select ftf file

Check on exclude ta

Also check no final verification

Now click flash

Flashtool will ask u to Connect phone

Now pick up ur SWITCHED OFF phone, press the VOLUME DOWN button... Keep the volume down button pressed.. And connect the usb to ur phone

Flashing will start ( once flashing starts leave the volume down button) and let it finish

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
When you power on the device and connect to flashtool it recognize the device, thats ok.

BUT when your device is off and you are trying to connect in flashmode, the device need different drivers for this kind of operation.

All drivers needed are in flashtool folder under Flashtool/Drivers... Just install them, there is option P and U visible sola is right behind, see attachment.

Just install them and you should be fine. The error you posted in the picture is clerarly asking for this.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F1_SS:
So I got my Nexus 4 and overall I love it. It was a nice upgrade from the Galaxy Nexus. 2 issues im having though are

1. The vibrate seems really week. Much weaker than the Galaxy Nexus. Its so weak, if I lay the phone down flat on a table I cant hear it vibrate. I even have an app installed to make it vibrate longer.

2. My led light doesnt seem to work. I installed light flow and nothing. It worked fine on the Galaxy Nexus.

I dont know if I should try and return it to google for another one simply for the vibrate issue or what.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] junkbots:
I can confirm the weak vibration. I had a G2 which I could hear rattle against the table. N4 is nowhere near as powerful.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvirginia:
the vibration intensity of the LG Optimus G variants are also the same. i have noticed that Samsung makes the best motors for this function. HTC/LG/Moto appear to use the same, or similar, motor.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F1_SS:
The vibrate is really bad. Its basically useless. I just might disable it. I cant get any of the LED notification apps to work. I tried trusty light flow and nothing. The only time the LED works is when I press the option to test it and then its only 1 color.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] F1_SS:
Ok so an app called sms popup was preventing light flow from working for some reason. I uninstalled it and now light flow works as it should. An FYI if anyone does a search
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akhan47:
First time I've owned a phone built by LG and the vibration really is pathetic.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwahchees:
Yeah, I can't feel anything either. :/
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drose6102:
I am disappointed with the vibration as well, I can live with it though. I have not had issues with flow light, in fact it's a great app to allow me to set vibration reminders in custom intervals
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n1ggyn1ce:
I'm disappointed in the weak vibration..no tingling sensation in my pants :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkedge:
Wondering about this as well; the vibrate actually works fine when I've got the N4 in a pocket but when it's on a table or desk, I can't hear/feel it at all. One thing I've noticed is that if I can get one of the longer edges to touch the desk, the vibrate seems much stronger on the edges of the N4 (no bumper here). When it's just face up the vibration just isn't strong enough through the back of the device to notice.

I've read other posts in this forum where people feel like the N4's vibration is actually stronger than the GNex. Is it possible that something needs to be replaced in these devices with weak vibration motors?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I actuallyl iked the vibration on the N4.

Using a custom kernel such as Francos increases the vibrate intensity.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akhan47:
I highly recommend flashing Franco's kernel. Fixes the vibration, improves performance, improves battery life and improves the colours on the display.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AshtonTS:
The weak vibrate is because the nexus 4 uses a linear oscillating vibration motor instead of a counter weighted rotational motor. A linear oscillating motor produces crisper, smoother, and quieter vibrations, but it isn't clanky, rattly, or annoyingly gritty sounding like a counterweighted motor used in most other phones.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] catlog:
Confirmed, when I hold the buttom of the phone standing up to the desk,the vibration actually goes to the desk. :p

---------- Post added at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Well, at least it isn't as strong and loud as the one in my iPhone. That sure was annoying.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
This is good information to know. Upon unboxing my N4 I definitely felt that the N4's vibration was DIFFERENT. When I say different, I meant in a good way, it just feels more real and thats the only explaination i could say but the way you worded it was just what I was trying to say but could never think of the words.

I disliked my old phones' vibration where they rattle and sounds like a car motor.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkedge:
Definitely agree. I really like the way the N4 vibrates, but I just wish I was able to notice it when it's on a flat surface. Figured it had something to do with a difference in motor; glad to know I'm not crazy!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhock:
I agree about the vibration, almost useless (I find the maximum ringtone in my pocket on the street to be too quiet too).

Lightflow works with no problems for me, did you enable it in the "accessibility" settings?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctowne:
I like the vibration on this phone a lot better than my old gnex

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] republicano:
its too weak,yet my keyboard vibrates like it should.

I just hate it as I don't feel a strong feedback on the navi bar and selecting items half the time.

tried that app above and on francos so its at 100 already. o well
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neocryte:
I am in an LTE area, so have 10+ Mbps downstream on my One X. However, when I tether my iPad (mini) to the One X (using the WiFi Tether app for rooted phones), I get very slow speeds: 100-200 Kbps.

In terms of other tether apps, I tried FoxFi and get even worse performance. Barnacle doesn't seem to work (after loading the apk, it claims there is no root/su privileges). With SVTP, the iPad can't seem to connect to the hotspot.

I am running Nocturnal ROM with Elemental kernel. Any thoughts? Have others encountered this issue?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
Did you try running the speedtest app on your phone. Then tethering your iPad and running the speedtest app on that?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
I always use the built in wifi hotspot app and have always had good results. I'm in a LTE area 99% of the time and get the same LTE speeds on my Galaxy Tab when tethered to my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] neocryte:
Yes, my phone has about 10 Mbps up/down. The iPad is getting 0.14 Mpbs down and 0.06 Mbps up.

Great ROM. Stable, everything I use daily works flawlessly. I was previously using PACman without much luck (or stability). Haven't had any complaints from others on the other end of the phone, and the call volume isn't bad. Even the camera works great, wifi tethering has no issues, and the customizability of PA makes it the best non-pure AOSP ROM I've ever used.

I do have one question, that no search has given me an answer to yet- where can I find voicemail/call forwarding options? Either it's very well hidden, or missing. Any ideas? Thanks very much!

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:
It's sultan kernel. He's in the process of rebasing to fix it. It should have only been broken on the first call though. Check out his thread.. I believe it's been discussed recently
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Splitz300:
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or not, see screenshot below of the battery:

This is very little usage in 5 hours, down 40%. Is this "normal"? I'm concerned at this point because i'm going to work on Monday and will need a decent battery life (no charger available at the office)

This is my first experience with a ROM, so a bit coaching is encouraged! Phone is just now a year old.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] camo_flage:
You have to let the Rom settle in and do 3 full charging cycles ( fully drain then charge to 100 while off )
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Splitz300:
Ah. Will wait a few days then and report back later.

Battery life was always horrid on this thing. I figured it couldn't get any worse!

This may help a little...

3.0.80 kernel for PA . This is just the PA kernel updated to 3.0.80. Simply flash the boot.img in fastboot and if you cant get wireless working put the bcmdhd.ko in /system/lib/modules folder and reboot... if it asks to overwrite that file say yes

(Yes its the same thing as in the PAC thread. They use the same kernel according to source)

DO NOT FLASH THIS IN RECOVERY!!!!

Enjoy!
