Hmmmm you are quiet wrong, lmt pie is really popular and well known and it came out way longer and older than pa pie. And works with most andriod devices, instead of pa pie is a built in rom only.

---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

If u grab the original file from lmt pie, it works with note 2, Make sure pick option 2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgamble160:
Ok. Well thank you. I never heard of lmt before finding this. Regardless I thought it a good idea to post it for others who didn't know about it either.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
I read through that thread yesterday and there's a work around for it from what I remember. Try picking an activity instead of the actual phone app and look for the dialer or contact activity. It does the same exact thing as picking the phone app, and since picking the phone app doesn't work this is the work around for it. Hope this helps. :D

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ReelFiles:
Figured it out, somewhat. Use the contacts app and just tap the dialer tab before exiting. The next time you start it it will be in the dialer. It's a shame you can't modify the app name in the pie or all the app icons matched. Other than that it's pretty sweet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tgamble160:
Worked like a charm. Thanks

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
I could be wrong but I think that's only if you have 'use last action' on next start (I believe that's the default though) selected in the contact app's settings. You can change it to always open to the dialer tab and then your set :D

That's a good point though for the people who are having problems with the phone app (mine works fine luckily :D) because that way at least you can have the contact icon unlike the when you use the work around. I definitely agree with you though it just needs a few more tweaks allowing for a little more customization, and then it will be the mother of all freakin apps. Lol

I don't see an option to set the default opening tab anywhere in Jedi 10, maybe I am missing something.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jeep447:
Ok i just looked at my contacts app too and I'm not seeing it there either so I was probably thinking about one of the cm9 or cm10 roms I had before, so my bad. I can suggest one you can get though that does have that option, and it's up to your personal preferences but I use it and I think it's a pretty good one especially for free. It's basically a free dialer app on Google Play called TouchPal Contacts, and it let's you pick the default tab upon opening as well. If you do try it, the app is called TouchPal Contacts but once it's installed it will also give you an icon called TouchPal Dialer with a pic of a phone (kind of similar to the phone apps icon). You can use that dialer icon for specifically pulling up the dialer portion of TouchPal Contacts (same concept as android contacts and dialer) for the best possible work around imo. Just throwing it out there. Hope it helps :D

After struggling for a couple of days with this :confused:, I gave up on getting the wifi to work on my TF101 B4O. :mad::mad:

I found a run around to get internet on the tablet, albeit very slow internet.

If you have an android smart phone you can actually tether your internet connection through Bluetooth!

I am not sure if you can do it with other phones but definitely through android using a nifty little program called Bluetooth auto tethering.

Using either your mobile 3g/4g connection or whichever wifi your phone is connected to.

I'm excited I can still use internet on the tablet, and it is not rendered almost useless.

Hopefully this helps all who are struggling with no wifi connectivity on their TF101 and are out of warranty and do not want to pay to fix their tablet (like me)

God Bless! :D:D :good::victory::victory::victory::victory:
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frederuco:
I can tether to my iPhone using bluetooth, no 3rd party app required.

First, pair the two

Then tap the 3 sliders to the right of the BT pairing and tick the "Use for internet" box.

Profit!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Closed Source Project:
Hey XDA, I was looking to purchase a USB OTG setup for my HTC One S and had a few questions for those who have it and use OTG in general (please, only respond if you use OTG and can help). I know support is different on different devices, I would just like general answers is all :) [Also seen on the One S General section]

1) Is OTG reliable / stable? As in: can I store music on it and easily play it through a media player with no lag / media scan delay?

2) Is it possible to store game data on the storage? In example, Vice City or Modern Combat require you download ~1gb of files (game data) to the SD, can this be placed / read from OTG instead of /storage/sdcard? Keeping in mind my device has internal storage and no external SD support.

3) For those of you who use TWRP recovery, does it play nice with OTG? My device's TWRP version says it supports OTG, I just want to know opinions if it works well. My main use for OTG would be to backup / restore TWRP backups.

If anyone can answer these any of these questions I would greatly appreciate it. I am really interested in OTG since the One S has a limited storage space. Please note: I posted this in the One S general section as well, just putting this here to get more traffic / more answers, plus this may help other users considering OTG on a device with limited storage. Thanks again!

I got wild blood from play store but uninstalled because I needed space but now when I wanted to reinstall it says I have to buy it again. Does anyone know if there's anything I can do about this?

rom: extreme ics betav3

kernel: turbo v3
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayact~:
If you purchased it, go into your store, then bring up the menu. Select 'My Apps'. It will show you a bunch of tabs, the current one being 'Installed'. Swipe left to the 'All Apps' tab. There, you should be able to find all the apps you previously installed/purchased. Click on Wild Blood, and it should bring up the page with 'Install' as an option.

If you still can't download it, I guess you could email the developer or google and get it sorted out on their end.

Also, google suggests to check to make sure you're under the proper account that the program is tied to. Hope this helps.

I have an iPad 2 16 gb 3G been offered a trade for a p7500 I'm leaning toward doing it just prefer android over ios. Although I do admit my ipad has been a good tablet my main gripes with it are the speaker which it seems the 7500 does better. Also I was hoping to be able to Bluetooth tether from my galaxy note to conserve battery over wifi tethering.

Has anyone else made the jump from an iPad 2 over to a 7500? Any regrets?

Does it mean we will be able to correct display issue with display calibration application ?

Already clicked thanks :) Thanks for the detailed information :)
[Xperia Z General] Maedhros:
When Comparing the NA Xperia Z (production carrier testing model) to a HTC One X, it is abundantly obvious the screen isn't up to par.

Not sure if software can correct atrocious viewing angles and contrast.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Hi! I only did a quick glance on the whole code to confirm that docomo and international version have the same types of display but I haven't messed yet with the whole display driver itself. I don't have any device yet to try messing with the driver configuration so I can't say yet. But most likely yes it is possible.

Suppose to be yes. Like what I have said above I don't have any devices yet to debug this one but if the display calibration software sony included in the ROM is directly controlling the color enhancement and gamma(for saturation) then mostlikely it is possible.

I don't own any HTC One series phones so I can't compare actually but they are a whole different type of displays so I really can't tell if it's possible to calibrate it to be on par with the One X.

Edit: I am not familiar with Tegra 3 might take a while before I can check HTC One X
[Xperia Z General] ethan3686:
Ok this is good news..gave a thanks :)

If the software isnt included ill try get an XZ from japan only..do thy sell unlocked units?
[Xperia Z General] ipmanwck:
I have been totally put off xz now. Tinny speaker screen not up to par. M7 released today will wait now

Custom Stock Rom 4.0 Eternity

Stock but better
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Same with me. My eye currently is on HTC M7 since I got attracted by the frontal stereo speakers. But if it's the same like other One Series with unremoveable battery + no sd slot then back on anticipating the Xperia ZL. :D Being a current HTC user I find sense a very battery hog type of UI. Having a small battery capacity and unremoveable one would be a very big no for me. My current HTC device has already killed 2 batteries in 2 years and I don't want that to happen on a unremoveable battery phone. At least let us change batteries if it died. lol don't want a disposable device on my hand.
[Xperia Z General] Warrimonk:
Does the ZL use the same screen? Since it is thicker it might use a non economical IPS???
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
ZL does use the same screen as Xperia Z and what's economical IPS? If you're talking about e-IPS it's Enhanced-IPS not Economical-IPS. There's no such thing.

Also isn't e-IPS made by LG? And the display here isn't from LG but from sharp.

As you can see in the document it is a LTPS type of panel.

Panel	Low-temperature poly-silicon (LTPS) TFT
[Xperia Z General] vivftp:
Hmmmmm, a lot of people seemed convinced these displays were from JDI... so this is not the case? Interesting.

IF they are all Sharp displays, could that explain relatively crappy screen performance?
[Xperia Z General] Phorgasmic:
wow relatively crappy?!??!

what the... i mean its not top of the notch 2013 highend screen, but it sure does look sexy as hell in my eyes...
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Even I was also convinced on the past. But when the kernel source code was released this confirmed the real display being used.

There are actually 3 types of TF displays in general which are being used by phones.

AH-IPS, LTPS and ASV

AH-IPS are somewhat the AMOLED killer(Might be the display used by HTC)

LTPS which is being used by Xperia Z/ZL are the displays which is famous for being low power

ASV on which has the advantage of having a clear wide angle display.

I assume sony did get the LTPS display for utilizing the low power feature it has. This probably the reason why every review we get says that we are having excellent battery life for a 5 incher phone with high end chipsets.

So I'm not sure about what you're saying about crappy screen performance but if you're talking about the angle washed out issue then probably this is a screen issue.

If it's the saturation of the overall screen I'd say it's a software issue :)

I'm sure sony could fix it. It's just a matter of setting the ARGB values of windows manager of ROM they compiled.

This must be the reason also why Docomo version has good display while others aren't. Assuming that the Docomo version is a customized OS and not the generic one probably different developers must have made/compiled the OS.
[Xperia Z General] vivftp:
I agree they are great. By relatively crappy I was both referring to peoples perceptions of it and the fact that some people say the phones they have seen are great and others say they are bad. Originally it was believed the screen came from JDI, so if they are using screens from both companies that could explain this discrepency if the Sharp panels aren't up to snuff
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
:D found a decent description of the 3

AH-IPS

This display technology has been invented by LG. It is an abbreviation for Advanced High performing - In-Plane Switching LCD. It is being touted as the actual competitor to Samsung's 'Super AMOLED' display. In a competition held by 'Intertek', LG's AH-IPS display actually defeated Samsung's Super AMOLED in 2 parameters: Color-Accuracy and Power-Efficiency. You can find this display in the recently released LG Nitro HD.

LTPS

This is an abbreviation for 'Low Temperature Poly Silicon' LCD. One of the important characteristics of such displays is that, the drive circuits are directly integrated onto the glass surface which contributes to reducing the number of component parts designed on the outside substrate. This leads to the display's durability being enhanced. The reduced size of the TFT section leads to a crisper display and also leads to lower power consumption. You can find this display in the Lenovo LePad S2005.

ASV

This is an abbreviation for Advanced Super View display. The important characteristic of this display is that it offers excellent viewing angles and competes with the In-Plane Switching (IPS) LCDs. You can find this display in theMeizu MX.
[Xperia Z General] Phorgasmic:
yea sorry i sounded a bit harsh, my Z arrives today and the discussion about the display here just got me..

sorry for OT
[Xperia Z General] vivftp:
All good. I shall be getting the ZL as soon as it hits Canada in April. The screen easily destroys the one on my x10a, and that is all that matters to me.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Hi! If you don't mind could you try installing this software on your Xperia Z?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.netmanslab.sa&hl=en

And see if you can fix the saturation like they say.

If you can then I can confirm that the issue is within the ROM it is using and not in the display nor the gamma values defined on the kernel.
[Xperia Z General] Riyal:
Same with me :D I wouldn't exchange the IR Blaster, smaller size, comfortable back portion, Cool notification lights, Dedicated Camera Button, higher battery capacity(even if it's way too little it's still higher)

over waterproofness & classy looks only.
[Xperia Z General] vivftp:
Well the only other thing the Z MIGHT possibly have over the ZL is drop test durability, but no way to know for certain until they're actually dropped. My guess is they will either be equal or the ZL will be better, but so far we've only seen the Z dropped and survive everytime just fine.

I do like the idea of the dock for the Z, but I can live without that. I do wonder if Sony will have a dock for the ZL too...
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
What kind of proof?
[Xperia Z General] maverick1103:
Well I wouldn't say I'm being ignorant, I'm just not choosing to listen to people bash the device because they simple don't have first hand experience and are just going off reviews.

I will be happy once the HTC One and S4 is out so people can then vacate to the right forums! :cool:
[Xperia Z General] Maedhros:
This wouldn't surprise me. HTC sourced their screens for the One X from 2 different manufactures as well (Sony & Acer if I'm not mistaken).

I think your mistaken. Many people (myself included) have handled some variant of this device already and have come to decisive conclusions.

As I stated before, I have first hand experience comparing the screen on the NA varient of the Z to the One X. The One X's screen is far superior, despite 720p resolution. Since, by all accounts, the HTC Ones screen is an improvement over the One X, I can only deduce that the screen on the HTC One is undeniably better then the Z.
[Xperia Z General] Al Gore:
Everything I wrote? :p
[Xperia Z General] jayman1986:
So, are you getting this phone?
[Xperia Z General] maverick1103:
Not mistaken I have been following the thread daily so I know who has had a hands on etc....if you prefer the HTC One then cool go buy it, I prefer the XZ so I will buy it.

I loved my HTC One X, the missus has it now, I do pick it up at times and go dam that screen, but other things annoyed me with it and I feel that will happen with the One also....I just fancy a change and this will be my first Sony phone (hopefully not last lol) I'm going for premium build quality and a better UI, obviously these are my opinions!
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:
A bunch of people agreeing to the same thing with out any evidence is not really proof.

Anyway I think it is just in the eyes of the beholder, most reviews just say it looks fantastic when looked at upfront. Depending on how much you like viewing angles and care about what the meter says you like it or you don't.
[Xperia Z General] stefanve:

"But before we go on it’s important that we make one thing clear: both handsets’ display setups are better than excellent – they’re ridiculous. Both use Full HD 1080p displays and offer unparalleled viewing experiences. So much so that even relatively new handsets like the iPhone 5 and Nexus 4 pale in comparison. "
