[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolguy420:
the phone is neither switching on nor charging.....I cannot connect it to computer also.....I cant put it in flash mode for connecting to flashtool....nothing is happening except it starts heating gradually after connecting to charger.....:(((
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jai554:
Tips to connect your phone in flashmode if there is no green light when you are trying to connect it to flashtool:

1. Press back button while plugging it into your computer USB port.

2. Do not release back button and press power button once while you are pressing back button.

3. Green LED light should appear.

4. Release back button when your phone is detected in flashtool.

(MAKE SURE THAT YOUR BATTERY IS FULLY CHARGED)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolguy420:
I charged the battery fully using an external battery charger. When i connect it to flashtool, the green led glows but as soon as i select the file to flash, the led comes off and it starts heating again. I tried using Sony Update Service also to repair it, but as I click on next after connecting it, the same happens, green led goes off and it starts heating up.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolguy420:
Please SOMEBODY help me!!!!

I downloaded the Stock firmware from the following thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749426

I downloaded the India Generic Kit 1237-0692. I tried flashing it through flashtool but between 14-15%, the flash mode just goes off and the phone gets disconnected. Now, the condition is worse than before. Earlier, I was able to switch the phone on and see the 'Xperia Never Dies' screen from scritch's kernel. But now, nothing is there. Everytime I try to flash generic firmware either thru flashtool or SEUS, the green led goes off and it gets disconnected.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME FIX MY PHONE. I HAVE NO OTHER PHONE TO USE.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jai554:
I dont really understand what your problem is

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

You should select the FTF file first then you can connect your phone when the flashtool ask you to connect your phone...

your steps are wrong... the same thing goes to me too when i connect the phone before i select my desired firmware file...

please attach your flashtool log
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raghav@awesome:
Here are some suggestions my friends note had a similar problem:

1.Try using a new battery maybe the battery fails as it spoilt and can't handle strain(my friend had this problem)

2.Since your phone won't do anything u can try go to a store and say I don't know what happened and ask for help

3.Did you try entering recovery and flashing a Rom or nandroid backup. Your question is not very clear.

Please let us all know what u did to solve the issue.

The power button on my csl mi410 is automatically responsing like displaying phone options on one press instead of long pressing. Sometime it locks phone automatically while using apps without pressing power button, sometime shows unlock screen continously for 4-5 times witout pressing power button. Sometime the power button doesnt response while pressing. Please someone guide me how can i overcome this issue and if its hardware issue please guide me how to freeze power button and use volume button as power button

Thanking you in anticipation.
[Huawei Ideos X6] ezio2:

Hi all..

In the coming weeks I'm due an upgrade.. :)

I'm currently in the process of doing research on which phone to purchase..

:confused:

So far I have short listed some phones.. my final decision will be bad on a few factors.. I was going the good old peeps here at xda can assist/help me choose the right phone..

Factors..

1. Phone spec (processor, phone ram, internal/external sd etc)

2. Development (is it easy to root, custom rom development)

3. Look and feel

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO GIVE YOUR OPINION.. GIVING YOUR REASONS AS TO WHY CONSIDERING THE FACTORS MENTIONED ABOVE..

:p
[General Topics] raees93:
Im in the same situation .. I'll most likely go for the Nexus 4 simply because it's a nexus decide .. First for updates .. Yes please :)

But on the otherhand the S3 is a better multimedia device seeing as you've got alot more storage compared to the 16GB on the nezus
[General Topics] Roots:
Yes me too, the storage factor it's an important issue..

Which of the two are the two are easy to hack > root and custom roms.. and easy to restore from soft unbrick..

Any ideas

Samsung S4 :p
[General Topics] tchen510:
If money is important, you can buy the nexus from the play store and ask you carrier to forward the money for the new phone upgrade to the payments for the service. This could save some money and you would still be able to use the Nexus 4.
[General Topics] Sully6789:
Spec wise, the N4 wins hands down. If storage really is an issue though, then the Quad Core S4 Pro, 2 GB of ram, and the absolutely gorgeous display won't matter. All you'll get hung up on, is how you don't have more than 16GB of storage. Development wise, its a Nexus...'Nuff said.

Look and feel wise, this is the most beautiful device I have ever held. Its not heavy, but it doesn't have a cheap plastic feeling to it like Sammy phones do either. Its light, fits in the hand well, and is just nice to look at it. There's not really any cons to this phone. The only thing you'll notice coming from Amoled displays is the blacks aren't as deep. You get over it quick though the more you use it and notice the lack of over saturation, and increased clarity. And I'll be sure to let you know what Key Lime Pie is like if you go with the GS3. :p

Also, being contract free, is a truly liberating experience.
[General Topics] badlucktk:
i had a GS3 but sold it for a nexus 4. coming from an iphone 4, the GS3 is an excellent device. I wasn't too crazy about how the GS3 handled receiving MMS, but the screen was the ultimate reason for the switch. Everyone talks about how great the AMOLED display is but I just couldn't handle how it viewed when outside in direct sunlight. I never needed external storage and I live in an area that doesn't have LTE yet, so changing to the NEXUS4 wasn't that big of a downgrade for me. Actually, I love it! I did consider the Optimus G, but the lack of Google Now and Jelly Bean pushed me towards the N4. Couldn't be happier..
[General Topics] asweiler:
I would wait a bit for the next Nexus or Galaxy S to come out before deciding, otherwise I would have to say between Nexus 4 and S3. Depends on the functionality and specs that matter to you most.
[General Topics] adelmundo:
Maybe you might consider the Galaxy Note 2. Quad core Exynos, 2GB RAM, non-pentile SAMOLED 5.5" screen, S-pen, LTE if you live in an area with it, monster up-time because of the huge removable 3100 mAh battery (I easily do 24 hours on a single charge with 6 hours screen-on time), and SD card.
[General Topics] Roots:
The nexus4 sounds very appealing as per above comments.. I can live without sd expansion..

What about hacking side, which is easier and in development.. meaning which it's easier to root, flash custom roms etc etc :)

Does anyone know when either nexus or samsung next new phone will be released..?? :rolleyes:

Please anyone can help me??

First I can not find and install drivers to my PC so communicate the phone with my PC to root the phone

Second I want to root the phone and flash a custom recovery...

Please help me!!!

Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] brianmillar9:
You do not need the PC to root the phone, I rooted mine with a app called Universal Androot. Then install app called Superuser.

Then install Rom Manger and in that app give it superuser permissions and install clockworkmod.

Install Terminal emulator and type "su reboot recovery" - this will boot clockworkmod... put the custom rom on an sd card and install it through clockworkmod... good luck :)
[General Questions and Answers] lakkes:
Thank you for your answer but do not work...
[General Questions and Answers] Johnsmith41junk:
Not sure what you mean by "do not work..." but if it isn't working properly...

Does your computer detect the device and try to install drivers?

Is it a matter of not having permissions? If so, search the market for ADB Konnect (works WITHOUT root)

Check the box for a specific model number, or search for something like "Samsung Galaxy 3 Clone Z15A root rom".

If you are still having problems, let me know.

Definitely S3, one of the best phones on the market. Although I would suggest the S4.

But the nexus4 has almost the spec except external sd card (big draw back for me).. without prjejudice every tom **** and harry has one, if you where I'm cooking from.. :thumbdown:

Now the nexus will get latest firmware up know dates much quicker & also there's a lot going on in the dev section..:p

Yes the Note it's an excellent tab (not a phone) especially when size it's a very minor but important issue..

Dont get me wrong, the s3 is a good phone but the nexus 4 is a better phone..Best guess is ppl recomending the s3 havent had a chance to use the nexus 4 considering its curent availability status..

Keep in mind also that the Nexus 4 is a Google phone so u get the latest updates from Google first...
