[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MEGAS XLR:
I have an Xperia X1a, which is locked to Rogers.

I've tried several times to update it from the R2A ROM up to R3A through the official Sony update software, but it refuses to detect my phone. I've gone through all kinds of troubleshooting to get it to work accross multiple PCs with no success.

I've given up on the official method and decided to download the stock R3A firmware and flash it manually. However, links to the firmware images are all dead.

Would anyone out there happen to have a copy of the Rogers R3A firmware, or the generic North American R3A firmware?

While I'm at it, does anyone also have the Windows Live panel? Something else that has disappeared from the Internet.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MEGAS XLR:
I downloaded and installed the latest Update Service from Sony's website, installed it, etc.

The update manager won't go past the screen asking me to put remove my battery, hold down the power and volume down buttons, than connect my phone to my PC.

The Xperia X1 starts in the colored stripe-mode, but the update manager simply won't detect that it's been connected. Windows detects the Xperia and installs the "Microsoft USB Sync" driver without a hitch. The Xperia is using the stock 0.72 spl.

I've gone through countless hours of troubleshooting, both online and by contacting Sony directly (I even brought my phone and laptop in to the local Sony store and they just can't get it to work).

I've given up on the update manager, which is why I want the stock R3A .nbh file to bypass the need for Sony's buggy updater.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CyberGmonster:
I find myself flashing different roms a lot lately. The only hassle is that I have to setup my home screens, settings, etc.. every time I flash a new rom. So when I asked around for a solution someone told me that I can actually use titanium backup user app and system data save then restore. So when I restored the backed up user apps and system data onto the new rom my phone went bananas lol. Error messages and freezing. So I had to end up reflashing and restore everything manually which is so frustrating.

So my question is, is there a proper way to do this, or do I have to set everything back up manually.

My phone has been Darthvaded and sent using Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BubZX:
I use ROM toolbox pro to do this. I use to 2 back ups. One I have just apps and one I have apps and data just and case something doesn't play well. After I restore everything looks like it did before.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CyberGmonster:
I always use titanium to backup my apps but for whatever reason trying to restore all TW settings/configuration is not working for me for new ROMs with titanium. I guess I will try toolbox if I feel like spending more $$$ on apps lol

Hi guys,my htc one x+ stuck on boot after flash viperXL.. then i try to restore back my backup system, but still stuck on boot.. can anybody help my problem.. thanks
[HTC One X+] superchilpil:
Did you flash the boot.img?

Did you wipe data?

Slithered from my HTC One X+
[HTC One X+] JoeyBimmel:
You can always try to go to stock and then go back to custom. Hold your power button until your device powers down. Then in bootloader run the RUU setup file on your pc. Good luck
[HTC One X+] Daywalker68:
Did you also flashed the kernel.

Sometimes it's the kernel.
[HTC One X+] accordangler:
Yes, i flash boot.img and kernal, but still stuck... when i restore, it say .android_secure.img not found, is that normal??

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ludin:
Hi guys,

I have a Galaxy S3 running 4.1.1. I love it so far. the one problem that i am having is this. I recently bought a blueant Q2. it sync perfectly with the phone and everything works well.

My problem is that the native phone dialer requires a network connection. This is stupid since my dumb phones that i had for years did not. I would just say call X and it would call X.

Is there a app that doesn't require an internet connection to dial people that will start automatically when i touch my bluetooth headset?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ludin:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
What do you mean by older device? Like not android?

Androids run with Google, which of course uses internet so I dunno if there's an app that would allow it without internet connection. That's like having a AI on your phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ludin:
all of my non-smart phones could do bluetooth dialing without connecting to the internet.

yet my smart phone has to connect to the internet. I don't want to blow my mobile data so i only use it when i have to.

i don't understand how a dumb non-smart phone can do something that a smart phone can't.

i have heard cyberon can do it i just didn't want to pay for an app.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Dunno how much data you have but I personnaly have 1GB and I never use all of it (and I never restrain myself from using the internet). Those voice search use next to nothing so you really don't have to worry about that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alexandre-P:
I suppose (but that's only a guess) you would have saved a voice entry for all your contacts on your old phone, and the phone would match your query to one of the voice entries. And on Android, this kind of match is computed by a speech recognition server. That's what I would guess...

P.S. Sorry if this is not the right forum for the thread, I'd personally contact a moderator and ask to move it if so.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] susp3nd:
I heard that the Note 2 is a world phone. My question is this. Can I purchase a phone from verizon unlock it, ship it to my wife in Afghanistan (she has GSM service) and install her sim without issues? The reason I ask is I am not sure if she is good at changing settings because she is kinda used to an iphone.

When she gets back I would also like it to work on Verizons network because that is the service that we have here.

Thank you for any information you can give me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
For voice and text, it should work out of the box as the Verizon variant is unlocked. If you want data though, you need to do a little work as Verizon wants you to use their global roaming so they left out the APN data. Below is a link to that process. Alternatively, some of the custom ROMs (like Beans) add that in for you. Hope this helps.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] purged363506:
You could just program the APN settings, etc before you ship it to her.

If it was me, I would get the phone... unlock it and install one of the stock based roms (beans, cleanrom, etc)

Configure it to her network, her email, etc.

Flash a nandroid of it using clockwork mod or twrp onto the sd card you are sending to her, and a spare smaller one just for that. Take a couple of pictures of how to restore a nandroid and print them out.

That way if for whatever reason something goes wrong with the phone that isn't hardware related, she can flash it back to a working condition.

(I say a spare card also just incase the sd crashes on her at some point)

It is super easy, so if she isn't that confident around screens normally this should work fine.

What carrier does she have?

We can look all the info needed up with the name of the network, etc.

If she doesn't have anything already, then afghan wireless sold by telestial is a decent affordable provider.

Lately I have been asking myself a lot about it and have read a lot of questions from other forum members who want to know "Are 301K manufactured devices any better than 212K?". Just to minimize the confusion and gather any/all information from 301K+ device owners, I am posting this.

There is also a POLL attached so that who have received 301K & above devices may give us feedback if their devices do not have the issues which earlier makes had.

The POLL has separate options for up to 212K device owners and for 301K and above N4 owners. This way we will be able to see if the issues have been reduced/minimized or completely wiped off. Of course, there aren't many 301K owners ATM, but they are increasing....rapidly. So this will help.

If you do not have any of the mentioned issue, kindly select option number 7. And if there any new issues found in 301K+ devices, please mention in posts.

From the RMA thread:

My 301K arrived, still has some light bleed. Not as bad as my 212K so I guess I'll keep this one.

One blob of light bleed on the top right of taskbar, vs 3 on my 212K.

The volume rocker isn't rattling any more either which is good, as I also got creaking on my 212K just above the volume rocker. Was as if the housing of the phone wasn't fitted tightly enough.

Not sure on CPU binning yet, my 212K was faster, but hardware/screen defects > CPU binning on priority, obviously.

edit: I've just noticed there is a huge bit of light bleed bottom left of the phone, makes half the bottom half of the screen brighter. Argh. I give up, LG displays are simply crap.
