Hey guys .... Though Android Studio is quite User-Friendly, many newbies to Android Studio find it difficult to use some libraries (ex. Parse, Google Android Maps API v2, ABS etc) in Android Studio and are left with gradle errors while compiling ...

So ... I made these two Guides for new users.

[GUIDE][Android Studio] Using Google Android Maps API v2

[GUIDE][Android Studio] Using the Parse Push Notifications Library

Hope they are of use to many ..! Any suggestions to improve the guides are also welcome ....

Tried it for a couple of weeks and it looks pretty good. Liked that there is a possibility to switch to native Eclipse keymap, should be useful for those Eclipse developers who are starting using IntelliJ.

Yeah, in my opinion it is great, too. ;)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] felicious:
I'm wondering if there's a way to properly change my xperia Z version to an international version because mine is a china version, and has many things blocked. (Google accounts are banned in china)

I recently bought a Xperia Z in Beijing. Now I am in Moscow. I did not realize about the Google stuffs. I just thought that all Android are based on Google. However when I started to use it, I realized everything was in Chinese (I wish I could read that). Then I realize there was no Play store, no Google map, etc.

Instead there was a "PlayNow" app and "Baidu" app, which happened to have the apps Play store, Google map etc. for download. However once I tried to load them, they would crash instantly (well, Google map doesn't, but the GPS doesn't work in it. Foursquare did not function at all). All of this seems crazy because when I look around the world, people show their reviews of the phone and of COURSE they have Google map, Google app store, etc.

I've looked into unlocking my boot-loader and rooting my phone. Both things I've tried but after unlocking the boot-loader, everything was just factory restored and Super User was added, and still I couldn't do anything about Google apps. After rooting, I can not fast-boot my phone at all.

If the whole system was changed to international, then there wouldn't be any restrictions. I wish if someone could help me to solve the problem. Thank you very much.

Hello,

I have JB 4.1.1. I'm trying to upgrade to JB 4.2. I have unlocked the bootloader and been trying to root with no success (I've tried many ways). Now I'm trying to upgrade to JB 4.2 but the tablet won't boot on recovery mode. When I try to boot on recovery mode I get the laying android robot with the red exclamation mark.

Please help!!!!!!!!!!!

[Asus Transformer TF700] Tylorw1:
This is your stock recovery. You need to install a recovery. You can do this using the ABD tool in the Dev section. After you have a better recovery, which I suggest at least TRWP 2.4.4, Flash the zip in the stock 4.2.1 thread that has TWRP 2.5 and 4.2.1 Boot loader. 4.1.1 will run on the 4.2.1 boot loader. After that then flash the stock 4.2.1 in the same thread. It is pre rooted. This is all if your unlocked.

[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Unzip the file then rename the unzipped file to "EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip" (without the quote), then copy it to the root of your micro sdard, boot into recovery by hold volum down and power button, when you see the white text on the screen let go both buttons, then hit volume up twice, it should flash the firmware file
[Asus Transformer TF700] Tylorw1:
The guy with the exclamation mark ISSSSS your recovery. It is not a full interface. It will only flash a rom if there is one available, if it is not, it will do what you stated. Unzip the file downloaded from ASUS website once after downloading, then put the zip on your Micro SD card and rename it EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip. restart going into recovery and it should flash it.

Once it has booted up and you have completed your set up you will notice that you won't have root so use Motochopper to root and then download Goomanager and install trwp 2.5.0.0 recovery should you want it.

That is, if he wants TWRP. But make sure you read all guides carefully just incase to prevent later issues.

I've read a lot about the media server process since it always takes the second highest percentage in my battery use (8-12% or more) and I've tried turning off sounds, checking for faulty apps but it always seems to get more time out of nothing. Just to check, the process had been running for 1 hour 32 minutes and 50 seconds, so I opened YouTube, played a video for 3 seconds, then quit and returned to see that now it had used 1 hour 33 minutes and 15 seconds. Is this normal? The issue has been present with all the ROMs and kernels I've tried.

Hi I know this seems a very silly question, however after reating the manual and try after try I cannot manage to turn off the XDA.

The manual reads, press and hold the power button (top left). When I do this the backlight of the XDA turns off but the handset is still active and will still accept incoming calls.

How stupit am I, but how the hell to do switch this device off?

Go on have a good laugh :D but I am getting :twisted: .

AT the top of the screen there is a signal meter, just click that and you will be offered the option to turn off the radio, also in profiles you can select flight mode this will turn off the radio then you just press the power button to turn off the xda.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Jos:
Don't keep the button pressed.

Just press and release, can take a few seconds before it switches off.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Red_Toyol:
XDAII has two functions: PDA and phone.

To switch off phone: Click on signal icon at the top of Today screen. Click "Turn Wireless off" or in some version click "Turn Flight Mode On"

To switch off PDA: Press the power button on top of your XDAII. Press and release, wait a few secs, your XDAII will switch off. If you press the power button and hold, only the backlight brightness will 'turned off'.

To switch both PDA and phone, switch off phone first, then PDA.

Hope that helps.

Hey guys, considering jumping ship from Samsung, currently running a Note. I'm eligible for an early upgrade on Smart and looking hard at the Xperia Z. Normally I'm a Sony hater (root kit et al.), but I like how they are contributing to AOSP, and it is good hardware.

Hi everyone!

I'm planning on selling my XS and upgrade to an XZ (or the rumored Honami), how much does a second hand XS fare nowadays? Is it a good upgrade or do I wait for one more wave of smartphones (sony, of course).

Also, I heard that Smart carries the XZ exclusively. I've been on Globe since primary school (year 2002 i think), is Smart a good network? Is their LTE stable? Kasi, if I won't buy the Z from the Xperia store, I might try jumping to Smart just to avail Z plan :)\

Since I'm on Smart for my XZ, I could possibly test the LTE, that is if I get the settings and the budget right. Yes you could jump to Smart for the Z plan, or call WidgetCity or Kimstore if you don't like the plan

I have been loaned an Xperia Z for a week. HAHA. So far, I had certain bumps in the road.

When you take calls via car control, do you experience delays( Give or take about 5 seconds before the voice is head)?

Second, sometimes I find the device dropping signal (I'm on globe, btw) and I have to turn into airplane mode or restart the voice just to have coverage again.

How long does the battery last? With me, mobile data on, full brigthness, no gaming. The device lasts about 5 hours. Is there wrong with the device?

Also, sometimes Yahoo! Messengers hangs up on me. Anybody else who experiences this?
