[Nexus 4 General] stevew84:
Nevermind the specs, I'm more curious about the cost of the device itself, and how it runs.

I have T-mobile, a GS2, which is pretty damn smooth, I recently was going to switch to ATT and picked up a refurb GS3 (30$) and an HTC One X ($0.01). The monthly rate plan is too damn expensive so I shipped them back and decided to keep TMO.

I'm going to buy outright, but rumors of the HTC One being around $800-900 is kind of a deal breaker, and the GS4 is really only a larger GS3, which I've owned in the past.

So my question is how is the Nexus 4, really? I know it boasts a 4.7" screen, but isn't it "really" only 4.4 or 4.5, since the home buttons are actually on the screen?

[Nexus 4 General] stevew84:
Because I'm curious how this device is, I've never actually held it. While the HTC One looks awesome, Sense pisses me off to no extent (I learned this from the One X).

I'm not sure if I can get over the mass amount of wasted space on the bottom of the Nexus 4.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] mjay:
Hi there!

Looking at the "connectors" page, it seems possible to me, to tinker a cable/plug for external line in; for example for a microphone - or, which I intend to do, for a guitar pickup, so the tuner software I bought (which works very well) will also do it's job fine under "real" circumstances (before a gig, when the surrounding always is pretty noisy).

But there are some questions:

- which way to go, with a large or with a headphone connector?

- for the second, there will the internal speaker be off? :(

- for the first, there's also just the possibility to switch off both, internal mic *and* speaker? Or will line in also work, if CAR_ON# is not on +6V? But then the internal mic will be on and catching all noise, too?

- what means "Audio needs to be capacitively coupled in" on that page?

- which other pins have to be connected somehow, to somewhere?

- ah, and if going with the (easier to realize?) headphone connector - where to get one?

sorry for silly questions,

thanks,

Manfred J.W.

No Lockscreen option? In Accuweather? Impossible, I am using Accuweather, because of the LS option - so I have all the data I need right on my LS.

Go to settings, then lockscreen, and there for wallpaper set accuweather. It has to work! Also, u can set it from the app itself.

hey guys, im new to this forum,,

anyways,

i know that unlocking bootloader will take away xperia z's bravia engine,

but if i relock the bootloader again, will i be able to get it back?

opinions pls :<:(

P.S. : does losing bravia engine is a really big deal to you?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thaevil0ne:
For now there is no way to get BE2 back after unlocking.

Maybe in the future, no one can tell.

Kind regards, Stefan.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokbepogi16:
thanks for teh answer thaevil0ne:), btw, do you think losing bravia engine is a really big deal?:o
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thaevil0ne:
For me, not at all.

I unlocked the bootloader even before checking out the BE, as I want custom kernels.

As far as I understand it will only work when you view pictures or movies with the Sony Album app.

If you browse the web or play games the engine will not be active at all.

Kind regards, Stefan.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheAngryCube:
Hey folks,

we often heard now that BE2 can't be brought back after unlocking bootloader.

My question is simple...WHY?? Maybe some dev can answer this question. I don't understand where's the link between unlocking and the BE2 engine. And why does this only affect pictures? That makes no sense...

In addition to that, there are a lot of ROMs for other sony devices which bring BE2 to them. Why shouldn't it be possible to bring it back then?

I understand that thing with loosing DRM support because of security issues...but an graphics engine....?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fareeed:
When you unlock the bootloader you lose things called DRM keys, these can never be restored after unlocking. These keys are used to make specific functions or features work. After you unlock as these keys are no longer there so some functions won't work. Sadly bravia engine is one of these things that stops working.

Bravia Engine 2

It surly does not work with the pictures.

Bth I had a few smartphones as far: iPhone (jailbreaked), HTC HD, S Galaxy Nexus, Galaxt Tab 7, and have never had problems like this that I irreversibly lost such important features after unlockimg the bootloader. Of course it is only me to blame as I should have done more research before but bearing in mind my earlier experience and the fact the instructions were taken fron offical Sony site I just felt too self confident.

Anyway I think next time I will not choose Sony smartphone as I am bit dissapointed with the situation esp. when you see BE ported on devices from HTC, Samsung or others.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defsix:
Do you still have the option for BE2? I also thought we lost the ability to get track info and movie info from Gracenote, that's still working fine for me. I don't do DRM so it's no loss to me.

I've not used other devices much, I vaguely remember with Samsung you're sideloading the firmware as opposed to Sony where you're unlocking to freely change the firmware... Correct me if I'm wrong.

Sent from my Brain via my Keyboard on my Xperia Z
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sikoro:
Yes I do. The button BE2 is still visible in my settings but there is no difference if I turn it on or off. For getting track info it is similar - I can start this option, wait until is finished. Then start it again and exactly the same number tracks is updated. You can repeat the process all over but in fact nothing is changed.

I don't know what you exactly mean "sideloading" but when I had Galaxy Nexus I could freely change the firmware, could have f.eg. JB with Touch Wizz from S3. Of course had no BE2 at all but the screen was more vivid so the pictures looked better (my opinion) than on XZ without BE.

Anyway there are mods which allow to install BE2 on devices from HTC, Samsung, Motorolla or other unlocked Sony models and that makes me even more disappointed.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defsix:
I still have the ability to use the Gracenote services, I updated all my music and it replaced the cover art, I also did the same with my movie & tv show collection.

On Samsung i believe the system is less secured when it comes to installing other firmwares hence the ease with which it's done. Firmwares can be installed without unlocking unlike Sony. (this is not my direct experience with Samsung only what I've heard)

As for BE2 it can installed on other devices and according to a post i read last night it's theoretically can be done, but not yet tried.

My nexus 4 maintains a different media volume level for when headphones are connected. So when I plug in headphones, the volume changes to whatever it was when headphones were last connected, and when I remove them, the volume returns to where it was before they were connected.

Were is the code in the android source that does this? I have looked in AudioService.java and AudioManager.java under frameworks/base/media/java/android/media/, but I can't find anything there. I have found that the the VOLUME_CHANGED_ACTION broadcast is not sent when this occurs.

Installed 6.1.1.B.1.10 and rooted successfully ( using this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1912865 )

Now.. My phone is not rooted and still - USB storage is not working.

I would like to return to my stock ROM but I need to relock bootloader to do so.
