Thats really good question 2GB is useless because its very less take for instance max payne game..it has 1.5 gb data.. whats left after u would download and install max payne 500mb.. let me tell u in your opinion can u play more than one game having huge data files ?? Of course not.. so what i did was i used all my phone storage for apps.. viz 2.5 gb after partition.. and then used dan.man 's swap memory thing which makes a89 belive that external storage is internal storage.. :p

..and when you have have mem card more than 8 Gb u can install more than one games having huge data files.. right..so search for dan mans swap phone storage as external thing and you will get the idea..currently i have 2.5 gb storage for apps and about 8 GB phone storage..hope this will help to clear your confusion!!

ALL THE BEST

So a weird thing just happened:

My phone was on and running fine. (I'm on Mack 3.5 with LK8). A few minutes pass and I pick my phone up and it's completely shut off. Wouldn't start up with the power button, I had to pull the battery. It loaded up fine and the only thing I notice that changed was the inverted google play store I had installed reverted back to white. Any thoughts on this? :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
Maybe play store updated?

Update: New one finally received.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] dimasp6:
I don't really feel like going all the way back to stock and then going through the whole root and unlock process, so is there a way to have the tz partition updated with a flashable zip and be able to flash all these awesome new roms coming out?

( I'm on snowjb 1.1)
[AT&T LG Optimus G] gunnyman:
Look in development section for teenybin
[AT&T LG Optimus G] psychotropicfx:
No flashable way, but the process has been made quicker. Like gunnyman said, checkout the android development section for TeenyBins from autoprime, I LGNPST'd the TeenyBin (alternate) to get my TZ/RPM updated. I've tried 3 AOSP/AOKP roms since then, so it definitely worked.

Not hard to lgnpst was hesitant at first not much harder than rooting and unlocking just dowoad the JB tot and flash away
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Rudegar:
somebody be sure to let us know if anybody come across something like this

http://pc-mobile.net/pxdaa.htm

which just works with pickup and slam down phone support for xda2

:)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] Pc-Mobile:
As informed on the web site, it is not 100% compatible with XDA2.

XDA2 use a completely different audio connector (5-pole) for a start.

PXDAA does work in XDA2 to a degree:

3.5mm setero jack works as normal, as of course volume control.

Microphone also works as normal, you can use it as phone handsfree or voice recording.

On/off button does not function on XDA2.

For those who do not have both XDA and XDA2 so do not know, the original XDA headset has ONE answer/mute button, while the XDA2 headset has TWO buttons: one for answer and one for end.

We are looking into it. At this moment we do not think making a new headset for XDA2 is on our plan as the demand is probably not high enough to warrant spending money on a new developement. But we might look into using the existing one button design and use the button as ANSWER, sacrifising the end BUTTON, which XDA users were used to not having anyway.

But it may still be some time before we have any conclusive plan.

I found out that i was not using the Beta5 version which is the one indicated for the Xperia Z and now im facing a different problem,

The phone doesn't stay in flashmode for more than some 30 seconds, then it disconnects and boots normally and i still can't flash the phone.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Yes it is, it happens for all xperia models

Ll give you the idea

1. Install flashtool beta 5

2. Install Xperia Z flashmode and fastboot drivers from drivers folder of flashtool installation directory

3. Copy the ftf to firmwares folder

4. Don't connect the phone, now flash the ftf and wait till it prepares the files for flashing (believe me this WILL take a while)

5. Now when it asks to connect after preparing, switch off the device and connect by pressing the volume down button

6. Now it starts! Solved?

Press THANKS if I helped!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smash_07:
Thank you for that guide :)

I followed your steps but the same happens, phone disconnects from flashmode to boot normally. I even tried using a Windows 7 pc but same issue.

However, if I use SUS phone remains connected and the process runs well. If i connect with flashtool (or without any programme at all) it will disconnect after some seconds,
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Futura2000:
smash_07 install pc companion and go through the steps for doing a software repair it will install the drivers, as the drivers dont always install properly from the flashtool drivers folder even though it says there installed, once the s1 boot drivers have installed cancel the software repair and then open flashtool and go through the normal steps and you should find it'll start flashing the software for you, as I had problems like you until I did what I posted, also make sure there is no other sony apps running as that can stop the flash from starting.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Confused, it is normal that it gets disconnected after some time but it is so peculiar that it disconnects so fast! Try the solution posted by the other guy and share the solution, ll figure out another way if it fails

Ps: Before starting flashtool make sure that adb isn't running. Open task manager in windows, kill adb.exe if present and then open flashtool, follow the guide I posted earlier and when the part comes that the preparation of files is complete and when you connect your device, make sure that none of sony related apps are running (sus, pcc, emma). If they do, EXIT them first (closing them will minimise them to system tray so exit them from there). This also can be done before opening flashtool.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smash_07:
I did all you suggested but in the end i get always the same result, phone disconnects from flashboot shortly after connecting, eccept inside Sony Update Service or PC Companion.

I unistalled all the drivers, even Sony's apps a reinstalled PC companion to install the drivers again. I used another pc with Windows 7 32bits and I get the same behavior, disconnects from flashmode in about 30 seconds.

I'm starting to think that there's someting wrong with the phone itself, which i hope not.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Where do you see the percentage when flashing?

I made a tutorial on HOW TO FLASH STOCK ROMs WITH FLASHTOOL and I don't see the percentage. It justs tells me that flashing is complete.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smash_07:
The issue has changed now, the percentage was because i was not using the correct flashtool version for the the Z.

The problem now is the phone disconnecting from flashmode in about 30 secs after connecting and flashtool never gets to start flashing it,

EDIT: Changed the thread title to reflect the new issue now.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowboy23:
Have you installed the driver using the flashtool? Not talking about the PC companion driver?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smash_07:
I tried both ways, with the flashtool drivers and pc companion ones.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Am confused, 30 secs is more than enough to start the flashing process, are you saying that the flashing doesn't start in 30 secs? If so, that's why I told you not to connect the phone at start and after the preparation of files is complete and when it asks you to connect, try connecting and immediately the process should begin. Even if you have connected the device before, no probs. Flashtool don't need the phone till preparation of files is complete, so you disconnect whenever befor you want, the time where it pops a popup asking you to connect the device (shows an animation) is where you should properly conmect and leave it aside. It will and it should start immediately
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smash_07:
Got the problem!

It was the firmware package that is corrupted. I tried using the UK .434 instead and it flashed with no problems or hickups. So the drivers and the phone were working well all along and the problem was where we less expected, in the firmware package.

I got the UK .350 firmware from here so there must be an error that has to be addressed with it.

Many thanks for your help :)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alz_uk:
Hi all, if anyone is having trouble flashing with flash tool because usb debugging isn't enabled error then do this procedure.......

1. Dowload latest flash tool 0.9.18.8 and also version 0.6.6

2. Try use the latest version first to Flash the tft rom. NOTE: remember the file it has error flashing e.g on my experia sp file system.sin was not able to Flash bcoz usb debugging error (enable usb debugging and unknown sources) ALL THE REST of the files flashed ok!

3.try flash again the rom but this time tick system.sin (or error file) in flashtool to exclude it from flashing. Make sure all other files are included. Also tick all wipe caches options and flash rom without system.sin (or error file).

4. Flash procedure will work. Now disconnect phone and leave it off without restarting it.

5. Uninstall flashtool latest version 0.9.18.8 and install flashtool 0.6.6 old version and open it to Flash the same rom BUT THIS TIME only select the system.sin file (or error file) to be flashed and rest excluded. Make sure all wipe options in flashtool are enabled and Flash! THE FLASH WILL WORK WITHOUT USB DEBUGGING ERROR and your phone will be fixed!

Press thanks if it helped!
