I was watching a 720p 1.4gig episode of Spartacus last night.

Device got really hot & noticed some frame issues towards the end.

Was playing via MX player & SW encoding due to audio so Bravia wasn't running.
[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
If you use MX Player you should enable the HW+ decoder in settings, it'll allow you to play nearly all video with HW and the audio with SW. Software video decoder is never a good idea.

[Xperia Z General] alnikki25k:
If you have unlocked your bootloader, you should try DooMkernel. It lets you undervolt. It did make a difference, albeit a minor one. But then again, mine never gets very hot. The only time it does get hot is when it's charging and I try to run a heavy application. That is definitely normal. Also, the Snapdragon S4 Pro is notorious for high temperatures(as evident from the Nexus 4).

AW: Phone runs hot while playing games

As stated, the SoC (Snapdragon S4 Pro) is known to become very hot under load. It has to be considered as normal.

Sony devices are well protected against overheating so dont worry.
[Xperia Z General] MiRaCL:
I returned my XZ today after 5 hours of use yesterday.

The phone i had got extremely hot while just browsing the menus. I started the phone out of the box(battery was at 62%), ran trough the setup, added gmail, facebook & exchange. The phone was to hot to have next to the ear. Had some problems with exchange so the whole process tok about 30 minutes and the battery ended up at 23%.
[Xperia Z General] MrPhilo:
Thats true, but it's due to the ****ty qualcomm mpdecision. On the Nexus 4 the overheating issue was fixed after turning it off.
[Xperia Z General] schaggo:
Now that we can root, this should be doable on a personal basis.

That of course is not a fix by the components supplier nor by the manufacturer, but a fix none the less.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RizzleJa:
Okay so I got an S3 for little & nothing with a cracked LCD, at the price figured it was worth a risk. Its an AT&T i747. Figured I would replace the screen in the week and have a functioning device, It turns on fine and everything (doesn't make any sounds though just vibrates) not sure why.

What I noticed though is that the circuit behind the touch capactive buttons is marked GT-I9300, found it odd so i proceeded to pull apart the device and check it out. On the back where the mainboard is, Its marked SGH-i747 on the sim tray but the circuit that connects the sim tray to the board is marked GT-I9300 along with the LED notification light circuit. Everything else seems to look legit. One thing I noticed is that nothing in the device looks tampered with, looks more like it has been like that from the factory but i'm no expert.

My question is, are a few parts in the device supposed to be marked GT-I9300? If not will the device function as it should 100% with the current mismatched parts inside?

Any help or advice is much appreciated, thanks in advance :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] AtoZ0to9:
When it comes to the screen, the parts are different, and you need the part for your model... You may have to take the screen off and match it to pictures to know which it is, it's prob I747...
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottmog:
So I had a r800at a while back and the emulator gaming experience was unparalleled with any other device. Went onto the Asus padfone and then to the note 2 while using a ps3 controller but that setup just doesn't work for me 100% I kept thinking about how I used to play with the xperia play and it was just such a more compact package.

I picked up a r800i on craigslist for 80 bucks and wanted to root it again and go to the nxt rom. I still have everything installed on my computer. I just needed some quick guidance of how to root and install everything again. Also wasn't sure if the r800i root was different then the r800at.

I believe I used flashtool to do everything. But just needed a quick reminder please. Thank you.

I think u've already answer ur Q. Flashtool definitely able to root ur phone. Dont matter which letter u hav at the end of R800. But if want a much simple way, just unlock ur bootloader & flash a custom kernel. Not only u'll root ur phone, u'll also gain init.d support.;)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
If you want to install NXT, you might just unlock the bootloader and install a kernel like Doomkernel. You can find tutorials here.

Thanks to both of you for the help.

I'll pass on the doomkernel. I didnt need it last time so I think I'll be fine. I wont be using the play as a phone this time purely as a portable emulator machine.

I'll read a bit at the links when I get home and reply if I need anymore help. I dont think I should ><

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] akky:
Hi All

Wonderful resource of information this site!!!

Before I opted for the XDA had the opportunity to test drive the Sony P800. Overall its OS is a bit clumsy compared to the Pocket PC, but one thing that I really really loved about the P800 was the ability to use most of the phone features single handed.

You could look up appointments, make calls after searching thru the contacts list and a whole host of other features could be accessed single handedly.

Now, with XDA apart from dialing numbers you have to get the stylus out and hence use both hands.

I have searched high and low for a .... sort of shell that would provide me with similar features as the P800 to use the phone single handedly. I have used the ..PhoneExt program but its sadly lacking in that it doesnt display a list of contacts that match the so far entered name.

I am convinced if the P800 could be made to run the Pocket PC OS, then with its bluetooth capability it would have provided stiff competition to the XDA.

So any ideas if such a shell exists for the PocketPC platform?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Peter Poelman:
You might want to try PhonExt for dialing single-handed.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] akky:
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have used the PhoneExt application. Its sadly quite lacking if compared to what the P800 can do!!!

If truly no application exists that can meet all the items indicated here, surely its a gap in the market - and I thought apps existed for every conceivable need.

Better get my programming hat on 8)

Hello? Today I modified WhatsApp (latest apk downloaded from website), only images and some string definitations, recompiled it back using apktool without any errors, signed the app using sign+ and installed it.

While its goes on sms verification after typing number, it says sms verification failed and when I press "call me" it says that seems like the app is modified, plz install latest version. (I was able to get the verification process completed by recomiling back with stock strings.xml file)

Secondly, I have seen that the WhatsApp is using images from drawable-xhdpi (plz see 2nd image) instead of drawable-hdpi folder which is disturbing me, i dont know how to make the app to use images from 2nd mentioned folder.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikloish:
Hey Guys,

I've been reading of a forum to this problem I've been having with any Cyannogenmod after 10.1-20130226. There seems to be this problem where when I make or receive a call, I can't hear anything but the other party can hear me talking. I've kept updating to newer and newer versions only to figure out all of them have this problem, and that the last working one is the 10.1-20130226 version. Is there something the devs messed up on?

This is of course for the SGH II T989.

And here's the link with other people with the same problem:

This is on the forum for cyannogen mod. copy and paste it into the forums.

topic/69560-101-20130302-nightly-phone-calling-is-broken/

If anyone knows a solution to this, that will be great, otherwise I have to stick with this version till the newest update fixes that problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Grntrenchman:
There's also about 10 threads here too. Same fix for everyone. Flash a different kernel, or a different ROM. Cerux kernel fixed it for me. It's in the development forum.
[General Accessories] xxwhynotxx:
I have an LG Lucid which isn't half bad. Unless you factor in battery life.

So I'm ready to pull the trigger on a spare battery or two, as well as a wall charger. You know those ones that you plug the battery into itself.

Anyone have recommendations on an inexpensive, decent charger that will charge a 1800-1900mah battery within maybe 6 hours or so?

Thanks!

Oh- looking on amazon if I can, as I have a gift card.
[General Accessories] Pennycake:
I just did this for my S3.

I can't recommend one for your phone, but once you know what to look for, it's the same basics across all batteries and chargers.

Do you want it to charge slowly ? You say 6 hours, but that seems awfully slow to me. Is that the point - so you can leave it on overnight ? I have a charger that chargers my 2200mAh battery in ~4 hours.

Look for a charger that will charge at 600+mAh. Often it will charge faster if connected to USB. You want to avoid the ones that charge as slowly as 300mAh. I guess they're good if you want to leave something overnight, but they're going to take ~8 hours to charge the battery !

Anyway - no matter if you want it to charge fast or slow, just look at the mAh output and do the math compared to your battery capacity - you can even use a "calculator" that will do the math for you (but it's really easy - "2200 / 600 = 3.6" - so 3.6 hours, but with some wiggle room for lower than 100% efficiency).

I got mine from the brand Anker - they were one of the few that offered a charger that wasn't ridiculously slow. It's 600mAh from an outlet, 1000mAh from USB (meaning it could charge the battery almost twice as fast). It came with two spares and the charger. All the reviews I read didn't say great things about the "universal" chargers, and they all seemed to have lower rates of charging - but maybe I wasn't looking at the right ones.

I am looking for info / help on Car Kits.

I have a TomTom Navigator SatNav System and am trying to decide whether or not to by an O2 Car Kit or Start modifying what I allready have to do the same job.

1. Does the O2 Car kit have voice cancellation Circuitry to reduce bounce back to my caller.

2. Does anyone have any circuit diagrams that will create the Radio Mute function on audio output from the XDA (I also want the radio to mute on voice navigation prompts)

3. Does the O2 Car Kit have a socket to enable me to attach my TomTom GPS Reciever or will i have to modify the Car Kit if i decide to buy rather than make.

4. Whats the cheapest place in the UK to buy the car kit from.

5. Does anyone have any other advice on this topic as it would be very usefull to me.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] LumpiStefan:
I think, the Car kit does include such a system. The "voice quality" is quiet good, like on other car kits....

This is the same function like the original Car kit do. It does mute the radio on all audio ouputs from the xda. There is no difference if the audio output is either from a calling, nor from the Navisystem, nor if the mediaplayer is used. But this is also a little problem. It turns off radio too, when you tap on the startmenu and get the "tap-beep"....

You have to modify it a little bit. Most of the GPS Recievers have a PS2 Connector to attach it to the XDA. The Car kit have an other Connector (don't know what it is..). i change the connectors of the Car kit to PS2 and it works fine....

I buyed my Car Kit at Ebay for 149.- €uro. This was the cheapiest place i found... (I live in Germany)

There is a thread about FVH an he has also a review of the original car kit.

Search here in the forum...

Stefan
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] roycruse:
One more question

I notice the O2 car kit claims to require professional installation and an external antenea

I presume the external antenea is optional and not required.

What is actually involved in connecting it all up - both electrically and physically.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] LumpiStefan:
In every car kit, there is a hint, to go to an "professional" to install it.

But you can do it yourself, when you're able to do some basic "electrical an pysical" installations.

You need to connect it to circuit of the car and to your radio and you have to install the speaker and the microphone. That's all.

The external antena is optional and not required. The same thing with the gps-receiver.

At the car kit are connectors for:

battery +

battery -

icognition or also battery +

Radio mute

2 x speaker output

microphone

external antena

gps

That's all...
