Is there is any Way to Mount Xperia U Internal Memory as a Drive in MAC OS. ???

Maybe you can try SD MOUNTER app. It changes media transfer to mass storage mode, thus could be good for your mac
[Motorola Droid 3] MSGames:
Hey guys; I tried using psouza tools(the 2.3.4 one i think 1.06) to root my phone; and it successfully said it rooted however it did not. I'm thinking maybe revert to another version of os (besides 2.3.4) and root from there. Preferably 1 root; any suggestions for me?

Also I have another Droid 3 that only turns on and shows the Red M and freezes there; never passes by it even with a fact. reset; any suggestions there?

Thanks guys
[Motorola Droid 3] sd_shadow:
to root use MOTOFAIL “Droid 4” by Dan Rosenberg

to fix bootloop

wipe data or cache in android recovery

with device off, hold X & power, when you see triangle, !, & Andy, press both volume buttons

or flash recovery image

AP Fastboot Flash Mode

device off, hold volume down & power, to boot

0A.64 you can only use .906 1-click-sbf.exe + tools [10-8-2012]

0A.53 you can use 2.3.4/5.6.890.xml or 5.5.959.xml

if it says battery low, Cannnot Program you need a charged battery, before flashing

if it says Connect USB Data Cable, try a different usb data cable, usb port, or pc

Hey guys,

my mom bought a Nokia Lumia 800 a few hours ago and we only now found out that the sms text si too small and that there is no option of changing it. She doesn't have the best eyes...

Is there a way to increase the font size or is there an app that does the same as the native sms app but with a larger font? I saw Large Contacts and Big Phonebook but those don't work for text messages/SMSs.

Help?
[Nokia Lumia 800] alecs:

so what's the problem ?? :laugh:

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Hey there,

Im a newb here, and this is my first thread, but whatever.

It all started a few months ago.

Several weeks after I rooted my play, and flashed cm7, with doom kernal, my play just suddenly didn't turn on. (Like, turned it off for the night, but refused to turn on in the day again) . However, after I took out the battery and charged it for 10 mins before plugging the battery back in and turning it on again, it worked. This happened intermittently, and through the 12 months I had with this phone, this has happened multiple times, albeit rarely. Every time it happened, it wouldn't turn on, no led when plugged in the charger, no nothing. Its like a dead brick. Plugged it into the computer and it says "QHSUSB_DLOAD". It would work after I charge it without the battery tho. LOL. - weird. (Something like this, link here

However, yesterday, 31/1/2013, my luck basically ran out. The same thing happened again, with "QHSUSB_DLOAD" showing up and all, but my above method didn't work. And so, I'm stuck with a dead brick.

Basically, my xperia play is unresponsive. Plugged it into the computer and it shows "QHSUSB_DLOAD" I think it stands for Qualcomm High Speed USB Download mode. Today, following this link I just randomly plugged in my phone while holding the back button, with flashtool open in the background. Its some miracle, like, my pc suddenly detected it as an unknown device, and flashtool did some kind of thing, not sure, forgot to screen shot but i think it goes along the lines of "installftfkit". After that, my phone booted.

However, because I wanted to plug in my sim card, i rebooted it, and this time it wouldn't turn on. I tried replicating the results, and all i got wasn't "unknown device" but "QHSUSB_DLOAD".

And there you have it, Xperia Play stuck at "QHSUSB_DLOAD" permanently after several times of intermittent incidents of that happening. It may be hardware failure, which explains the intermittent incidents.

But Im still kind of curious. What causes "QHSUSB_DLOAD"? What component fails that would cause the PC to read it as "QHSUSB_DLOAD"?

Its a dead brick, but I am still trying to revive it. I installed qpst and the QHSUSB_DLOAD drivers. QPST configuration reads a phone in download mode(image 1), QPST software download seems to be able to flash a phone and boot image(image 2). But it needs a hex file and stuff. (Not sure bout that)

Is it easy to get a boot image thing for xperia play? Can i flash it using QPST and make my phone work again?

Thanks for your help guys! Really appreciate it!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 216Monster:
Correct me if Im wrong...but Im guessing you tried Flashtool and it doesn't work ?

Also , are you familiar with using fastboot?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extrem3hunt:
another Xperia Play Problem

Hi I am a noob also.

I am having a similar problem. Today I was trying to install the wifi module since it wasn't installed on the gin2Jellybean rom, i tried to flash the phone using the Flashtool (turned the cellphone off and pluged it in again while holding the back button) then the window disappeared and nothing happened. So I tried again, but first I took out the battery and put it in again and tried to flash again and now nothing is happening, Doesn't turn on, Flashtool doesn't do anything and when I try plugging it the laptop does the sound of an unrecognized device. The phone doesn't vibrate or anything when I press the power button.

Just realized that I tried flashing my cell phone using the x10 BLRelock.ftf crap.. is there anyway I can fix this?

Please Help.

Thank you.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Flashtool and fastboot doesn't detect my phone. So yea :p.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 216Monster:
Are the fast boot drivers installed ? Is your boot loader unlocked ?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
LOL WTS.

As I said, its totally intermittent and random. I tried plugging it into the computer today, and this time a red led was flashing. I let it charge up a little, and there i had it, booted up perfectly normally.

Maybe the plug is becoming dusty or whatever, resulting in the detection being very intermittent? It happens on and off.

When the phone booted up, I noticed the battery level being very low (2%) maybe it needed some charging? Maybe the battery's screwed?

Its really weird.

And yea, fast boot drivers are installed, and boot loaders are unlocked (If not cm10 wouldn't have been installed lol)

Gonna keep you guys posted and see if it goes dead after restarting. Gonna restart after it charges up to 40%.

(I need to restart cos I have to plug in my sim and memory card)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Well, I restarted and it worked.

My theory is this: Phone ran out of batt one day. Plug is loose and dusty. Computer couldn't detect it properly, charger couldn't charge my phone properly (contacts are rusty or whatever shyt) and therefore phone couldn't on.

Don't know why my computer detected it as QHSUSB_DLOAD multiple times throught the 1 month tho.

Could a dirty plug cause that?

During that 1 month there was no response on the computer, thought it was bricked lol.

Anyways, I will keep you guys posted if this happens again, thanks for your help guys!

Imma keep this thread open since this is intermittent.

I'll only close it after 2 months.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
zzz. It couldn't boot up again. This time no QHSUSB_DLOAD, no nothing on the computer. 0 detection 0_0
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
My phone is just driving me batshyt insane -.-

I tried pressing the power button again and it worked, without plugging in the charger nor the computer.

It's intermittent, and now im afraid to turn it off 0_0
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
FML. Hands were itchy and wanted to see what would happen if I turned my phone off.

Now it can't turn back on, with the computer only detecting QHSUSB_DLOAD.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Turned on my phone after 10+ tries.

What I did:

1) Plugged out battery, held power button

2)Without releasing the power button, insert the battery.

Repeat until phone turns on.

Moral of story: Persistence pays off. Nah jk.

Made sure to on my phone with the sim card in this time :D

Never gonna off my phone ever again (Hope it doesn't run out of batt LOL)

One thing to note is this really weird fluctuation in my phone's battery levels. Maybe my battery is going nuts? Attached is the screenshot.

Made sure to on my phone with the sim card in this time :D

The epic fluctuation may provide clues as to why my phone's behaving like so.

As you can see from the third dip, I was charging my phone. And then after switching it off, it wouldn't turn on. After a day, and countless times of trying to wake it up, you can see that the battery level has dropped sharply. Weird.

The first dip happened a few days ago(not able to turn on) on 1st Feb. The second dip happened on the 4th, while the third happened on the 5th, today These drops in battery levels happened when my phone couldn't turn on.

Qhsusb_dload

I am sorry to say that my problem is still the same every time I plug my phone it is shown as QHSUSB_DLOAD.

I just need to find a driver for it.

PS my phone never turned on after the brick.

Can someone send me a link to the driver and instructions if hard to install.

Thank you.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Does plugging the phone into the computer while holding the back button work?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extrem3hunt:
Nope every time I connect it is detected as QHSUSB_DLOAD and it tries to find a driver and fails.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
Even if it finds the driver, it wouldn't help you, cos QHSUSB_DLOAD means that the phone can't find the rom, and kernel or whatever. (I think) Its like a computer without an operating system. QHSUSB_DLOAD = Qualcomm Highspeed USB Download Mode, which means its waiting for the manufacturer to flash the rom and shyt, and therefore, your phone is bricked. (Dead brick, i think?)

For me, i think there's something wrong with the connections in my motherboard, resulting in the phone not being able to find the rom and stuff.

Maybe there's no hope for you.........

In short, I think your phone's bricked forever.... Most probably.

Before flashing your "bricked" device, try this!

YOU SAVED ME! We have an Xperia Play at work and it wouldn't boot. Plugged it in USB and the HS-USB QDLoader 9008 Device came up. I read your post, did the power+battery thing 8 times, and it magically came back to life!

I wouldn't believe it if someone told me, but for some reason this seams to work. removing the battery and plugging it back in did not work for me, but holding down the power button did the trick.

:good::victory:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Pistachios:
HAHAHAHA LOL.

Glad it worked out for you :P

My guess is that there's something loose inside, and repeatedly trying to do that may help.

I think it's something to do with Sony's build quality, or maybe because the phone sustained hard knocks and stuff. (Probably just wear and tear)

Aledranssimo didn't reply me, so yea. T.T

This issue is probably an intermittent one I guess. I've since moved on and gotten a new phone (Lumia 520)

Had a heck of a time figuring out where this should go, if its in the wrong forum, feel free to move it.

I'm using dolphin browser on my touchpad because its the only mobile browser that I can find that supports Lastpass via add ons.

My problem is the touchpad doesn't have the native "back" button that all android tablets have and there doesn't seem to be a way to do it within the browser. Is there any workaround for this? The only solution I have found is to go to the gesture screen and use a gesture for "back". This is pretty cumbersome to say the least and for some reason the little dolphin button isn't consistently there.

Thanks.

I'm using Schizoid if that matters.

If you don't have the back button on Schizoid, you haven't set it up properly. Check the OP, but it can probably be fixed by: get softkey buttons in navbar, go to Settings->System->Navigation bar->Tablet UI soft buttons You should also check your settings to make sure you haven't set the navbar buttons to hide with full screen apps.

Be careful cleaning the back camera lens. It scratches very easily. I had some sticky spots on my lens and used my finger nail to remove it and I scratched my lens. Really? They couldn't choose a softer/cheaper material? Please no lectures that I used a finger nail. If it would have been glass it shouldn't have been a problem.

I saw an article where a person scratched a DSLR lens and it took shots just as clear as the new lens, They are close enough to the sensor and stuff that the scratch had no impact on the image. You have to REALLY scratch it or scratch REALLY deep for it to show up.

I feel your pain, I paid £62 for a n new unibody because the repair centre scratched my lense and couldn't prove it was done by them, so I get my phone back and the lense is kind of misty but no scratches, I think is an anti glare coating that actually gets scratched, if you look at the lense cover in daylight you will see it doesn't look very glossy, im sure its glass(could be wrong) its just that damn coating, it should be on the inside unless it on both because they were dipped to apply it.The onex is glass but theres no coating on it, its just plain glass.

Quartz will scratch glass no matter how many gorillas it's made of. Sand is basically quartz. So if you have a speck of sand/dirt under your fingernail or in the ridges of your finger, you can potentially scratch pretty much anything up.

hey guys,

do you think applying Polywatch on the camera lens will fix those annoying scratches?
[HTC One X+] henson0115:
it doesn't work on glass does it?
[HTC One X+] liory:
no, Polywatch works on plastic lenses..

I assume that the camera lens of our phone is not glass because it does scratch very easily..

To me, it looks like the camera lens is made out of some sort of plastic..

can anyone confirm this?
[HTC One X+] henson0115:
i believe it is glass, many people here also seem to think so
[HTC One X+] Kupfel:
the cover is very obviously not glass. I don't know how anyone could think that it is :eek:
[HTC One X+] boe323:
Whats being scratched is an anti glare coating, there isn't one on the onex, its just clear glass, if you put both phones together the onex+ as a purply coating, this is very easy to rub of and scratch.
[HTC One X+] 00mred00:
I think it is replaceable. I have a back cover you can have if you want to try pulling it off and replacing it.

Why would HTC give the onex glass and the newer updated version(onex+) plastic, doesn't make sense, I myself am not going to attempt to prove whether its glass or plastic, I still think its glass though.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cremacious:
Yesterday I rooted my nexus 7 with the toolkit and did a clean install of smoothrom. Later on I noticed my battery wasn't fully charged even though I had it plugged in for a few hours. The battery was at 67% and won't go past that.

I believe it is because I rooted and all that while not being charged 100%. So the device is fully charged but thinks its at 67.

Now.. how do I go about fixing this? I'm currently at work so I won't be able to mess with it til later, but I hope I'll get some advice in the meantime. I'm thinking to let it die and recharge to see if it will go to 100, or unroot and return to stock to see if that works.

1. Does it matter if I charge and use mobile at the same time?

2. My usb that goes to mobile has 4 pins. One is missing but it works fine so not big deal but wanted to see if it's normal or mine is with defect. Got other mini usb adapter from external battery (9000mAh Mobile External Battery Power Charger with Cell Phone Adapters) and it was much harder to put/take out in phone so I compared with original one and saw original is hardly noticable thinner inside and is missing one pin.

Maybe I shouldn't use that adapter, not to damage mini usb on note.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zayyaf90:
1. I would advise you not to use while charging. If i'm not wrong using it while charging results in the phone charging and discharging at the same time and that's not good for the device.

2. I think all original Samsung chargers have 4 pins. Even mine has 4 pins.

I've been using gesture. It's great. Swipe from different sides and locations give me different apps, previous apps, etc.

But when I have it set up to swipe from the edge of the bottom side, it doesn't work. The sides work, though. When I rotate the tablet so that the side with the charger is now the left side, swipe from left edge doesn't work. When I rotate to make the charger side the right side, swipe from the right edge doesn't work.

Anyone else see this or is it just my tablet? It's the side of the charger that is giving me trouble.
