[Oppo Find 5] drvsbsm:
Xperia Z and Oppo Find 5, have the same Sony Exmor RS camera sensor

The display is awful on the Xperia Z IMO, if you are not looking at the screen straight on, it gets really washed out, and another thing is that it is such a fingerprint magnet. Every review that I have saw, the device has fingerprints all over it and that is one thing I can’t stand personally. The Xperia Z does not have Gorilla Glass 2 either.

I would hate to have a stand/charger/holder for at night while trying to watch a movie on the Xperia Z, you would have to have it directly in front of you to get a clear picture,. You couldn’t have any angles or the video would look washed out. The only advantage I see is that it has an SD card slot, but this may not be an advantage for everyone. I have the 32GB version of the Find 5 and with all my Cloud Storage accounts, so I’m fine with 32GB. You can’t use the SD card anyways for the use with games or apps, which Google screwed up by doing this for some reason.

The Xperia Z is a nice device but, I was just turned off by the display, and all the fingerprints it picks up. I don’t think the Z is superior in any way, both devices have the same specs, but the Z has an SD card slot. Both have the Sony Exmor RS camera sensor, so it’s a pretty close call, it comes down to which device you like better, Both phones are nice to have though.

Hi everybody.

I study Spanish and I transcribe songs as a part of my study process.

I need to be able to go back 3 or 5 seconds in an mp3 file using phone volume control cradle.

Are there any software for it?

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efaustino84:
most big mobile manufacturers go through lengths to roll out new phones with new OS

so end of the day it is pointless for them to roll out a release of a new OS for an old phone

and yes i mean old phone

the S3 mini is now technically an old phone by normal tech standards

so don't get your hopes up that samsung will release a 4.2 version for this phone

your best bet is to help the dev guys here in modding a 4.2 ROM for this phone

quick google search also reveals the below

http://www.androidauthority.com/android-4-1-vs-android-4-2-jelly-bean-149740/

so all in all some of the new stuff that comes with 4.2 can be ported onto our current 4.1.2 ROM

can someone please explain the point of installing XDA and XDA premium when I already can access XDA forum using tapatalk?

Seems to me that XDA just wanna some buck?
[About XDA developers] deathnotice01:
it's just like asking why superman wears his underwear on the outside.

user preference.

period.

XDA has real expenses like server maintainance,

with 4,000,000 registered users and 30,000+ people online,

they need some financial aid to help them provide you people the service,

XDA never forced you to pay a dime but have given you a tremendous amount of service,

i'd like to see you manage a server with 4,000,000 users and let's see how well you go
[About XDA developers] FinancialWar:
I don't know you can draw XDA app to superman wearing his underwear on the outside? May be except they both don't make sense to me as a user.

yet, the rest of your argument is from server-sidepoint of view, not users...

that's fine, I understand, I have no issue with XDA asking for donation or anything. But how is this an reason for an independent forum app? There are thousands of forums, many with millions of members and I am a member of many forums. I don't see the logic for me to download independent app for each of these forum if they each had one.

what does my ability to manage a server with 4m users have to do with my original question?
[About XDA developers] deathnotice01:
you lack creative thinking and i find your knowledge disturbing,

USER-PREFERENCE,

i never use tapatalk,

i use the xda app FYI,

it's XDA's project,

and from my point of view,

i find it pretty useful since i only have XDA as my active forum so why bother getting a 3rd-party app when you can download a version directly from XDA.

it's kinda rude, saying that XDA is doing it for bucks,

since they did this to provide users an independent forum app,

you justified the means without proper knowledge,

i got both...but to be honest i only use XDA app now as this is the only forum i check. and if by me having the premium version helps support for the maintenance of the site, it is the least i can do for what i have learned from XDA over the last two years and the goodies that i have done to my phone to make it better:)

Reread your thread title and OP. Nowhere does it state that it's directed to people who use multiple forums, and you probably would have received different replies completely if you had made that clear. All you did was make the XDA app seem useless, which is wrong, because for people who only use XDA there's no point paying for tapatalk.
[About XDA developers] Zeuszoos:
Personally, I don't see any difference between the two. They are identical to me, except that Tap can have multiple forums in it, obviously. :)

But I am having a problem with both and can't use any of the four forum apps I have purchased:

XDA Premium (phone)

XDA HD (tablet)

TapaTalk HD

TapaTalk 2

Don't get me wrong, I am more than happy to support the developers! I'm not bragging, but I have purchased about 300 apps in the last year and most of them worked fine without paying for them. I just wanted to make clear that this is not about complaining because of spending the money. I just sincerely want to be able to use them and I can't use any of the four.

What I mean by that, is that after scouring XDA and Google, I cannot find any help on how to view messages that I have received email notifications for, like when someone responds directly to one of your posts, or even when they post in a thread/forum you are Subscribed to.

I know that I can go into the XDA/TapaTalk (2) apps and go to:

LATEST >> PARTICIPATED

... But that doesn't take me to the posts that I have been notified about, like if I tap the link in the email and it takes me right to the message, ya know?

So I end up tapping the link and trying to view the messages in the browser on my phone, but since XDA does not have a mobile version of their web site, I end up double-tapping it to try to blow it up and then moving it all around the screen, back and forth, to try to read the message.

And of course, posting that way is Hell! It is very difficult to get it to go back up in the message and you can't even see a whole sentence, because it's blown up and the regular display is microscopic!

Does anyonne know how it is done? I love the concept of these apps, but I cannot believe that they would have left that sort of feature out, given that people would constantly be responding to posts they are notified about, right?

So I figure that I must be missing something. But I have looked at these apps for almost a year now (and recently purchased the new TapaTalk 2, hoping it had stuff the original doesn't) and I just can't find how to do this.

Does anyone know how this is done? Please?

Again, going to LATEST >> PARTICIPATED does not list/take me to the messages I am being notified about. The threads are in the list somewhere, I'm sure, but I'm hoping to do it like I do when I tap on the link in an email message. It would be really cool if you tapped on one and it opened Tap right to that specific message that you're being notified about! :)

I may have missed this answer somewhere in these forums, but I swear, I did scour them as best I could and I just cannot find this specific help! Nor did I find any help from the Tap folks, except how a forum owner could add their forum and a Google search produced the same result.

I apologize for the long message. I just wanted to make sure that I was absolutely clear, so that folks did not just guide me to "LATEST >> PARTICIPATED".

Thanks!!!
[About XDA developers] Bruce Wayne:
Big post.

So basically what you want is when you click on a link on any other app (mail for eg. since its giving you notifications). You need to clear all the defaults you have set around with your browsers. (do it from settings»applications»manage»here).

After that whenever you click on a link, it will show up a popup to chose the app to procede for the link. If the link is from xda use tapatalk (it'll take you to the post right away), if from other site, use your preffered browser. Again do not set anything as default as tapatalk cannot open other sites and you will need to clear the defaults again.

A Hero Can Be Anyone.
[About XDA developers] Zeuszoos:
Dear Bruce Wayne,

Okay, I did what you said and it did not take me to the exact message. But it did take me to the same page, which makes it just a matter of scrolling down a few swipes up worth to scroll down to the message, which is certainly plenty good enough!

Plus, now I understand why this app's default posts per page is set to 10. :)

Thanks a bunch for your help, Bruce! I mean that! I can now, finally, use TapaTalk after a year of owning it! And that's because you took a few minutes out of your time to answer my question simply and plainly, without first assuming a certain level of knowledge on my part and I really appreciate that!

And I'm sincerely not trying to patronize you. As I said, I do mean that. It can be very difficult to get help, when so many people see a question as being "stupid" and you can't find anything on the web, ya know?

There was one thing I noticed though in the TapaTalk 2 app, which was that there was no option to "Quote" when responding (I wanted to quote a couple of sentences of you response when I replied).

Is there a trick to making it show that option that you know of?

If there isn't one, how would you know if it's responding to the message you're looking at on the screen?

Sorry to bother you again, Bruce! Last time, I promise!

:cry: (soory my english) I updated the XDA 1.2 ROM throught the USB cradle, but before I overwrited my HDD by utility XDArit.exe so when I started flashing the rom, on the XDA was written "Update your rom" or something, but the process stoped cause the update program can finded the souce XDA rom 1.2 file. So I try the rom write to the SD card throught the card reader, go to the boot menu, updated rom, but the sign "Update your rom..." was still there. I made hard reset, soft reset, I got the sim out, nothing. The sing was still there. So I made upgrade T-Mobile rom 2003 throught the xdarit.exe a now I cant power on my xda. Boot menu is still off. When I get the XDA to the cradle, there is bad sign "Update your rom"... and some points...

Can you help me? Thank you very much.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] valheru:
You need to be a little more concise with your problems but from what I can gather....get an sd card, xdatools, and a rom of your choosing and read a lot more posts before doing anything else.

Once you've done that...burn an image onto the sd card and place it into your device. Boot it up and you should be oka.

As said above, if the link you give me for the steps are hard (I cant do complex stuff, i only understand simple instructions) you can re write the steps here for me to get a better understanding :)

Okay, i am kind of irritated with the whole 15 levels of volume for Android devices and i wish to increase the range upto 30, 50 is preferred.

I've tried this link HERE

And obviously it didn't work because it is made for a Samsung device which is not mine

So done with the intro (Sorry if I bore you :p )

I will just tell you what I have and what i need

What I have:

I use an Xperia Mini Pro Sk17i

Running on Cyanogenmod 9.1 (ICS)

Yes it is rooted (No duh)

What I want:

Better range for my volume from 0-15 to 0-30 (50 is appreciated)

At least a frameworkmod.zip

Easy instructions or link to where i can do all this if it has been done

I know if there is a thread about this this will just make me look lazy or something but no, i have been searching around (still am) but i decided to ask so that a kind, charming, knowledgeable person (Trying to attract you :D ) can step forward and help me

Hope I can get a reply

[General Questions and Answers] Naweed Reza:
How I managed to do it

This is just for people who need to change their volume on their Mini Pro or other devices

Things you need :

Java software Development Kit

Download Latest JDK (Just download the Latest JDK, not JRE)

smali/baksmali tool (Thanks to the Korean guy, 'vorcot')

Download here

Have Notepad

Have your Framework.jar file on your desktop

Now sometimes Java might not be recognized in cmd

This will be noticed when you use Backsmali.bat (Happened to me)

You can get such message like: "Java Is Not Recognized As An Internal Or External Command"

So to fix that watch this video

Credits to the guy because I thought i would never fix it

After that

Go HERE

And follow the steps from "A. Basic Steps"

and in one step to change the volume you cant just put 30 or 100, it must be in hexadecimal form

You can use the converter here

Just enter a number on the decimal are which is your regular 1-Infinite numbers and click convert

Hope it helps for people who need it :good:

And Any questions can be asked

When I am free, i will make a full Tutorial for complete newbies
