[Xperia Play General] TLRtheory:
I actually got my father a MOGA to go along with the EVO 3D I got him... and I'd actually even agree that it's support is far above and beyond the rest of those BT controllers... and I hope to see it get even more support because I'll likely get one for myself come January when my upgrade is available... but at the time being, not even the universal IME app brings it anywhere near being

even a fourth

of what the Xperia Play is.

From personal experience, I can vouch for the statement that it does greatly expand what it can be done outside of the pivot app, but it doesn't have all the specialized support Xperia Play has from having hardware menu navigation and all the precision of games tweaked to work especially with it's hardware, which results in cases like a *generic-converted* Eternal Legacy requiring an incredibly awkward form of still having to mostly use the touch-screen. While I didn't particularly find it as uncomfortable as poo-tang, the clip didn't really seem like it was designed to accomodate any kind of phone that has decent protection... meaning that my father was put in an awkward position where he'd either lose the convenience of his MOGA clip, or lose the protection of his EVO's ballistic case... this is particularly frustrating because I can use all the high-end protection that I want without sacrificing. Then the actual pivot app itself and the games involved don't seem entirely foolproof without all the tweaking options Xperia Play's given... NOVA 3, for example, has more natural feeling aiming... and all that aside, it's missing a major method of locomotion control by lacking that d-pad (which is a huge deal for precise input in 2D games). On a lesser note, I was quite shocked to find that it uses AAA batteries as opposed to having a rechargeable lithium like iControlPad does.

I do like the MOGA a lot more than other solutions because - honestly - even with all the minuses, there's still no other option on the market that allows well-done controls outside of just emulating tons of old content. Any cheap piece of plastic can emulate nowadays but the Xperia Play brought something truly special where we could play present-gen games like Wild Blood with physical controls, and the MOGA's actually picking up a lot of support for that audience with striking momentum. For that I give the MOGA credit above the iControlPad, Gametel, 60Beat, Red Samurai, Nyko Playpad and all others... but it's got a looooooong way to go before it's up there with Xperia Play... and with the ever-lasting hardware limitation (plus the burden of pairing per every game session), it may not even be possible that the MOGA can ever be up there with Xperia Play.
[Xperia Play General] LegionTHEFecalExcretion:
I will definitely agree that the lack of a true dpad is a disadvantage. There is a larger edition coming out later that has one built in, but its bigger which is both good and bad, but at least theres a choice I guess.

One thing that has actually made it not bad at all for me is the analog stick is very sensitive so as soon as there is any movement at all to either the left or right axis it registers immediately, something Metal Slug on my phone can attest to. I am not just saying this, platformers have not been an issue at all. What kind of case does your father use? I am using the shell/holster combo case and have not had it have problems.

I have never been a fan of shooters on the play, touch pad was always a frustrating experience at best and a nightmare at worse, at least for fps's. Twin Stick shooter kick ass on the play.

You mention a "everlasting hardware limitation" could you elaborate? Wouldn't the same apply to any game console, even the play? In other words, you can't upgrade hardware with an ota, which I know you know Im just illustrating my point.

Pushing the power button and then opening the pivot/universal ime app is a bit less seamless than sliding out the gamepad but I don't think it takes away from the experience. I have the whole process down to about 5 seconds before I pick my game.

Ok im confused heck about this flashing stuff. I have a S2 I rooted, and flashed... using zerg oneclick.. didnt flash my counter.... and I flashed tons of times

I have a s2 rooted but I own a S3

Look im on ICS right now from the store (just got my phone) I want to root it and install a custom rom.... now my question is

Because I don't have JB yet I won't flash my counter right? Question is I can easly choose to flash stock firm ware again later on and reinstall the offical JB rom right? The one from the KIES and samsung,..

So once again... Im on ICS offical.... I want a custom ICS rom.... im ok ? no flash counter? I choose to go back to stock and go forward with JB im still ok no flash counter?

Alright.... but if I flash a JB ROM It will flash right? and it keeps flashing the counter every time I flash

Im a bad type try answer my question if you can please.

I am a person who may need his warrenty some day
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smelenchuk:
You will trip the flash counter if you use Odin to flash something other than a stock (untouched or properly rooted) image.

Yes - see here for completely stock images you can use for that, or here for pre-rooted stock images.

Well, to reach the point of having a custom ROM image without having tripped the flash counter, you'll need to go through the root process listed in the second of those links I indicated above so that you can install a custom recovery through which you can install those ROM images.

Just remember - if you're using Odin and you don't want to trip the flash counter, don't flash anything other than stock images. You should be okay then.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RPelham:
Also, keep in mind there is an app called Triangle Away which works for the GS3. Triangle Away can completely reset the flash counter.

Hi my names mysticfrog and ive just got to ask most of the people out there (and you know who you are!!) why root your phone then blast t mobile for being soooo slow with there updates and just totally hatin on them and THEN showin all the love for the rom you are on.. BUT ONCE Tmobile pushes out a update ......... BOOOOOOM!!!! you all feel the need to unroot then kies the new "update" ?????? then ***** about it and all the bloatware..... you have been told countless times "there will be a flashable zip within moments of it coming out... It happens every couple months and ive seen this activity since.... DAMN YEARS!!!! Im not hatin are anything but why dont you all just hookah chill and "it will come!!" Im only curious all were all grownups "I guess.." Im just curious... are you all thinking that something SPECTACULAR!! is coming from are provider???? please.... you should all know whats up... any how im just curious... say what you will.... I for one have no reason to jump ship and think unrooting would be better just to play with for a "FEW" minutes and come back to the jedi.. ooopps rooting side.. love you all and happy Christmas....:D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
This is not important or serious. This is just ranting. But I will bite anyway.

I am I guess a rooted stock user. So I am not the ones that love to go and use lots ROMs. But I like solving problems. And it is cool that we all give our experience on the table that helps everyone. That is why I put my experience log in some of my posts. Yes, I could of waited for the new injected stock root rom. But that is not the point. It is sharing the experiences in solving the problem. The problem I worked on is root the new update without triggering the "Custom Binary Download" counter (keeping "Custom Binary Download" as "no") and keeping the "Status" as "Normal". Some see this as pointless. But for the Stock root user fans this is important. At the end we worked out the kinks and finger out how to do this without the injected method. So now we have two ways of stock rooting and keeping counter as "no" and status as "Normal".

Now I am checking out the new injected stock root rom.

Troubleshooting is an art (with science) that you need to practice to master. What better way then practice together.

My point is: It is not the destination that is important. It is the journey that is important.

When it comes to most carriers being slow in this multi-window update, I feel that they should of been faster with update. Like Verizon out the door. This problem was resolved months before releasing to the US. If you buy a product it should do what the other of the same products do, and manufacturer claims, but doesn't then you are not a happy customer. It is not the multi-window feature that was important. It is getting the whole product that was important.

And yes, there is a huge problem in the cellular carrier world with Android that the carriers causes the largest delay in the updates. As well as the carriers causes other issues with Android that we can talk about in another thread. For now I hope you have a different prospective of all this.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpat258:
I got my nexus 4 yesterday and i opened google wallet. It said "setting up....wait about 5 min" blah blah blah. After waiting i got this message, "Wallet is unable to proceed until this device is fully initialized. Make sure the phone has network access and try rebooting if the problem persists." I tried rebooting it and it didn't work. i also have access to network. Would anyone know what could be the problem? Who else is having this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBunny:
Same problem here. Have you gotten it working yet?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMattS:
I'm getting the same thing, got my RMA replacement phone in yesterday and haven't been able to get wallet setup yet. Called device support and was transferred to the wallet support team after trying to do app cache/data reset failed. Wallet people said they weren't sure what was going on either and punted to their escalation team. Currently stuck waiting to hear back from them to see wth is going on....

Had no issues with wallet on my original N4 and I'm guessing either these are refurbs that didn't get properly wiped, or something else screwy with the secure element. Or perhaps the wallet system doesn't like seeing more than one phone of the same type on an account (tho I did wipe my first N4 before setting the new one up).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ballastatuz:
After rooting mine it says it was an supported device but still let's me go in. Anyone know how to fix this?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBunny:
Mine is also a RMA replacement unit. I also wiped my original one before sending it back. However, I forgot to disabled wallet from the web on that device before dropping off at UPS. My wallet device page now says wallet on that device will be reset once it connect to the sever. I an not sure if that has anything to do with the current problem.

Please keep us posted.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dacho:
Same here with a replacement device. If I restore a backup from my fist n4 it works fine though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misfits9095:
I would retry setting up an account at a later time. As dumb as it sounds, it's taken me a few seconds to set up or almost an hour. I don't know why this is the case, but i'm sure it has something to do with google's service.

Supposedly the unsupported device message means nothing interms of the operation of the app. I have personally never been able to use Google wallet locally, even when I was unrooted.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMattS:
Yea, on the Web it's showing the old device as disabled and I'd actually wiped from within the wallet app before signing in on my new device. I followed the same procedure when I upgraded to a 32G nexus 7 and didn't have a problem. Logcat is showing it's waiting on the secure element so I'm starting to lean towards this being a hardware defect.

Been trying this off and on since yesterday afternoon, keep hoping it'll decide to magically work. The unsupported device message is just a warning if you're rooted and hasn't prevented me from using it on my previous N4 or my old gnex.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBunny:
Called Google support and transffered to Wallet support and this the reply I got:

<reply>

We're sorry to hear that you're having difficulties accessing the Google Wallet mobile app. You seem to have encountered a known issue, where the NFC Chip in your SIM card and the NFC Chip in your device are preventing you from accessing the application.

Our engineering team is working hard to fix this, but it will likely take a few weeks to be resolved. If you'd like to continue using Google Wallet, we suggest you try to use a different SIM card that does not

</reply>

I don't think this is the cause of the problem I am having. I tried to launch Wallet without any SIM card in my phone and still got the same error. There couldn't be interference from the SIM card. At this point, I hope it is not a hardware problem. Otherwise, I'll have to RMA the phone, again...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JD914:
I'm in the same boat. I received a replacement device yesterday and I was trying to get Google Wallet working all day to no avail. I also tried everything I could this morning and nothing. My last step was to do a factory reset before calling Google. I had no luck after a factory reset. I called Google a few hours ago and ordered yet another replacement. They sent me an RMA and I'm going to have to send back my original defective device back first (yellow on screen) then order a second replacement.

I think this is a hardware issue. Seems too coincidental that everyone that has received a replacement this week including myself are going through the very same issue with Google Wallet.

BTW, I'm not rooted or have an unlocked BL.

Edit: I didn't get a refurb. The replacement was brand new in a sealed box.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBunny:
Is there any way to determine if this is really a hardware issue? I really don't want to go through another RMA if this is fixable by software. Not sure what else might be broken in the next replacement... :mad:

I have a rooted Nexus 4 and google wallet is not working. I don't think it's a sim issue: I'm almost sure is a google wallet problem:

With phone rooted but no google wallet installed, I passed the phone on a cab credit card machine,

the machine recognized a number and emitted a "beeeep". After I installed google wallet is no longer working
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaerty:
I have this same problem; I'm not convinced it's hardware, but I don't know how to be certain.

On my first N4, Wallet works all the time, with or without the SIM card. On my replacement N4, I always get stuck. Every other app that uses NFC (Android Beam, Barcode Scanner, Taginfo, stuff like that) works fine.

It's possible there's some hardware defect on the refurb batch, but I'd be more likely to blame software somewhere.

(FWIW, I also deactivated my first N4 and that made no difference. Both phones are completely stock and not even rooted.)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellBunny:
I don't have any problem activating Wallet on my first N4 either. It seems strange that all of a sudden people are having problem with their RMA replacement units.

Android beam works fine on the replacement, so the NFC is working. The problem could be just the secure element. The system log shows Wallet failed at initializing the secure element.

I called support the second time and they have escalated my case to a specialist. I hope it is just a software/firmware issue. Going through another RMA would be painful. The wait for the new unit, dropping off the old one, not sure what could go wrong with the new one, restoring my apps and settings, not to mention buying a new set of Skinomi invisible shields and reapplying them.... :banghead:

---------- Post added at 03:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

I came across a post for the Nexus 10 having the same problem. The issue is resolved by unistalling and backing up the original Wallet app using Titanium Backup, then download and install the Wallet app from the Play Store (older version). The app will activate fine. Then restore the one that comes with the phone.

I have no idea if this will fix the problem on our N4 and I am definitely not liable for any damage on your device if you try. However, it might worth a try if your pHone is already rooted. At least it will prove that the problem can be addressed by software.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaerty:
One thing I have noticed (and apparently a bunch of other people) is that my replacement device is subtly different on the surface. I have a different black area around the rear camera and a different feel to the buttons. There's reportedly a different internal hardware revision too...

Hopefully this problem is something boring like a revision bump on the NFC chip that unexpectedly requires different initialization. :fingers-crossed:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMattS:
Tried removing wallet with titanium backup and installed the market version, was able to do the initial sign in and setup steps but it failed to add any of my cards. Going back to the version that came with the phone just resulted in wallet crashing at startup. Cleared data and back to the same waiting on setup screen.

Out of curiosity, are folks using the android version the shipped with their phones? I flashed mine to 4.2.1 right out of the box so I'm wondering if that was my mistake.
