[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kmad86:
haha, I feel like I am in here by myself. However, I want to document all of this in case somebody else runs into the problem I ran into and they're a rook too.

I fixed it. I wasn't sure what ROM was originally on it and when holding volume and power I noticed the 9.4.2.7 so I assumed that was it. However, I tried that ROM and it seemed like it was going to work but kicked the gear and triangle.

I then figured what the heck and tried the newest rom I could find. The 10.4.2.18?? I think it was. Whatever is the newest on the link I put in the first post.

It ran, and rebooted and Wahla, worked.

It's important to note my directions of FAT32 and the EP201_SDUPDATE as it took me a while to realize those had to be in place properly for the MicroSD card update to work.

Enjoy!

I just uploaded a new screenshot with battery usage after 4 hours of normal usage, I have 3G data permanently connected, synchronizing emails from 2 accounts every 15 minutes (one account using IMAP the other Exchange), Whatsapp, Talk and Viber running on the background. Doing and receiving normal calls. It looks decent the battery usage so far. I still have to test the stamina mode.

As always with Sony there is no option to encrypt the phone memory.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ilgreco112:
You read my mind I needed this one ! What can you say about it ? Does it lag or something ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
It lags a little bit after the first boot then you wait a couple of minutes, reboot the phone and it works better. So far is working fine, haven't use it that much for a full review yet.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ilgreco112:
Because i updated mine, central Europe, and it's laggy and battery drains too fast ! Only 3 hours I have 44% left
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
I will update about battery usage later today after some hours of normal use, I did a factory reset when I installed it and right now I am downloading a lot of apps using 3G, so far battery looks similar to ICS.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nymro:
Nice

It's working in Turkey, thank you :good::good::good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Belbol:
Thanks , does it have English and Arabic "عربي" language?​
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] joaovsjf:
works on brazil ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
Yes, it does have English and I believe arabic is there too.

In regards to if it works Brazil, it should, all the Xperias P have the same hardware just different software.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Belbol:
Thanks , just 2 little questions:

1- Is flashing JB FTF will format internel 16 gb memory? "No , i know that it will not but just to make sure"

2- What is the differents between reagons? like Tiwan-Germany-Centre Eourope?​
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
You won't lose any personal data. Different region may come with different pre installed software and customizations from the network operator.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
Also different default language, HK firmware uses by default Chinese keyboard, but besides that most of them are very similar, except for the carrier specific versions which come with lot more useless software.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
I suppose so. I also think there may be some difference on baseband but cant tell for sure.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sdato001:
Most likely the baseband is the same in all firmwares since all the LT22i works on the same 2G/3G bands so they all have the same modem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
Yes, I think all phones are quad band.

Is it just me or is there no gallery or photo widget under widgets? I would think even the stock jellybean widget would be there but I don't see anything. Can anyone confirm?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] arsalann24:
Don't see, I guess its not there.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] veliksam:

I know it's not a widget but that's the closest thing I could find.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] gustav30:
Thanks. Just kind of weird. I would have figured they would have included at least the stock gallery widget. Past sense versions were overloaded with gallery widgets so just surprised, especially with how good the camera is.
[Motorola Droid X2] Greedy Greed:
After trying to sbf with the RSD program back to stock 2.3.4 from the Daytona CM 10 rom the RSD program failed and now i'm stuck at the RSD prompt on my phone. The worst part is I can't try again because my battery is to low and.won't charge in this mode. Is their still hope when I receive my charger?
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
unfortunately the phone can not charge in the boot loader and it will always default to rsd mode after a bad flash, so no charging. ways around this is to make a factory cable (hard, not recomended), hack together a stripped down charge cable(connects directly to the battery, not hard but not the safest way), find someone with the same phone and use their battery, find an external battery charger, or go to verizon(probably not a good idea)
[Motorola Droid X2] TheTechnicalBoss:
That's weird, when my phone would not get pass the M Logo and my battery was too low to RSD it would still charge, maybe I got lucky
[Motorola Droid X2] Greedy Greed:
Well I ordered an extended battery before this happened so hopefully it comes charged and I can try again. If not not I will get the external charger hopefully it's not fully soft bricked. I was worried this might happen since this was my first time going back from Jellybean to gingerbread.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Ive never had any luck with that. I guess it was a lucky flash.

It is incredibly hard to brick any Motorola phone. And it even harder to not be able to recover from a boot loop or a soft brick as long as you can run sbf flash or rsd lite.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlrogers:
I purchased an ivic 5d from a company called vaistech. This allows you to emulate your android phone on the touch screen in your car. It does so with hdmi inputs and a Bluetooth mouse setup. My issues come from the mhl. My phone connects and is perfect in airplane mode or on Wi-Fi, however as soon as a packet of data is sent over mobile data, didn't matter of 3g or 4g the signal is lost and the screen flickers. Sometimes it congress back and sometimes it does not. I am rooted and have tried every Toro kernel or there and cm and pa Roma, nothing seems to help. It also happens in the house hooked to a tv when mobile data is enabled. I have spent time on the phone with vais who says their product is working correctly, which I agree. I have also been up to tier 2 support with Samsung who has no idea and just blames it on the root and Rom once they run out of ideas. I have read of other people having this issue with genetic mhl adapters. But none has been able to resolve it. I have tried genetic and Samsung brand adapters with no luck. I am hoping there is someone out there that has an idea why a data packet would cause the mhl signal to drop, my initial thought was power draw. Anyone have any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freakb18c1:
I have the same issue! Yes, 3g data doesn't disturb it, ti's only when I get a text it will make the screen freak out. I'm thinking a overvolt could correct the issue i'm going to try increasing all my voltages by + 200 MV and report back.

edit: I pumped tons of volts to it, it has no effect on the issue :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlrogers:
An over volt was my guess too...this sucks. I've thought a lot about it and can't come up with any other ideas. Someone please help....makes me want to take an old Motorola to hook up to the car and leave on Wi-Fi and just tether my gn.

3g does disturb mine but not as much as 4g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlrogers:
Have you tried going back to 4.1 or even 4.0? Was thinking of trying it...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freakb18c1:
I pretty sure 4.1 has the issue as well. I'll restore a back up of my 4.11 and test it. I'll reply later with the results.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlrogers:
Sweet thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freakb18c1:
Same deal with 4.11 pretty sure it will happen with 4.0 too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jlrogers:
Thanks for checking, really sucks.... what mhl adapter are you using? Samsung? I have read it is worse with third party mhl adapters. Wonder if it is worth a try to do a warranty exchange for the phone and/or the adapter?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] freakb18c1:
Mine is Samsung, I wonder.. does this happen with the s3 too?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BareFinn:
Same issue with SG Note

I have the same issue with my Samsung Galaxy Note N7000. As soon a data packet is sent screen turns off. I've tried to connect it to my Pioneer Appradio 2, and I tried with two different TV's (HDMI). I even tried my friends Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100.

I thought I got a bad MHL, so I bought a original Samsung MHL. There was a tiny instruction in the pack which has a note that states:

Quote: "Any incoming calls or messages will freeze the media output. The media will restart to play after taking the calls or acknowledging the messages."

Could this be part of the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jakejm79:
I have the exact same issue, I have a Pioneer Appradio2 with a Galaxy Nexus (Toro) as the dedicated android device for it.

I have tried 3 different MHL adapter (a cheap Chinese one that looks like the official one, the actual official Samsung one and one that has the cables built in - the adapter is at the HDMI plug end with just a male full sized USB for power and micro USB to the phone).

I was hoping the 3rd cable would help thinking that maybe data transmission was causing interference to the adapter and moving the adapter portion to the HDMI plug (at the back of the radio) would help, but it made no difference.

So it seems the interference is internal to the phone, I have ordered a new USB flex cable for the GNex wondering if that will make a difference.

I've under volted, over volted and normal with no difference.

It's definitely data related, for example if I listen to music on Google Play Music that is stored locally on my device I will have almost no problems, but if I stream music from the cloud, it will cut out and flicker between normal, snow and black screen.

So I just grabbed the GNex out of my car and went connected it up to my TV with the official Samsung MHL adapter, same issues (or very similar) watching a trailer on youtube website on mobile data, audio will cut out and screen will go black, if I switch to airplane mode but enable wifi (so it uses wifi for data and not the mobile data connection) I can watch the whole trailer with 0 problems. The only difference is that I don't get the snow, just a black screen and audio cut out with my TV, though I suspect that is probably just how the TV handles the bad/interfered signal. It did seem maybe a little better connected to the TV, but I suspect that BT being off rather than a constant connection helped too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jakejm79:
So for anyone that is interested, I swapped out the USB flex cable (about $7 on ebay) and all my problems have vanished. Just took a 1.5-2 hour drive streaming Pandora the whole way and the GNex connected to my Appradio2 and not a single drop out/black screen/snow storm. I also ran Navigation for about the first 45 mins and it was still perfect, previously it would be constantly dropping out under that scenario. So for anyone else having similar issues try swapping the USB flex cable, cheap and takes about 5 mins.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickhimself:
Does anyone have a full listing of every app removable from the stock rom without killing it? I've frozen lots of stuff that I don't believe should impact general performance, but end up having to completely wipe and reinstall due to something I've frozen rendering my screen unusable. I think it's in the Samsung apps, but haven't done enough testing to determine which apps it NEEDS to have running in order to work.

The tablet can boot up just fine but as soon as I go to unlock it, it just sits at the homescreen unresponsive to any button or touch input.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcrudup:
This is not a "bloatware" issue (and it kills me when people go hunting for this stuff, unused software really has minimal impact).

You may be suffering from a problem I'd discovered with the Samsung kernel (namely, it doesn't reserve enough memory that the Android framework needs in order to do InterProcess Communication).

Can you try this kernel (rename the file to "boot.img" and flash it with either Odin or Mobile Odin) and tell me if that fixes anything for you?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickhimself:
The meaning of my quoted sentence in your post was central to the freezing issue I had following a reboot after I'd disabled apps. I didn't disable them because I thought my tablet was running slowly, I disabled them because I didn't want 200 applications installed because some guy in Samsung's marketing department said "well they have to have twelve different notepad applications, nine clocks, four calendars, several methods of backing up data to various cloud services, and also put a whole bunch of wallpapers in there for no reason because I really like cats and flowers so other people probably do too."

Also, sorry to tell you this kcrudup, but... I'm already using your kernel anyway :P
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcrudup:
OK, as long as this is a case of "shooting yourself in the foot", then.

BTW, wallpapers (as just one example) take up NO resources if not used, and since you're not going to be installing anything in /system anyway, what's the point?

(BTW, it's not just you I'm talking to here- it's all the other Quixotic "bloatware" folks out there. Unless something like "Better Battery Stats" are showing multiple wakelock instances and/or Alarms, y'all are wasting your time on that; eliminating "bloatware" is the "ATK" of ICS+)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nickhimself:
I think it's more carryover from working with windows for so long. I'm used to, possibly even trained, on expecting the first steps after a new install to be Clean Out Everything and Trim Services ASAP.

I just don't like feeling like I have no power over a stock ROM through removing any and every piece of software I just don't want.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kcrudup:
Sure, I get that. One thing to remember (and I've worked on a number of Android devices over the years for a number of manufacturers and carriers) is that no manufacturer (nor carrier, believe it or not) wants to do anything that reduces overall performance (even predatory ones like VZW who'd rob your Grandmother if there's a dime to be made off her).

What's instructive is to run BBS and check on "Alarms", "Network" and "Partial Wakelocks" at the reference "Since Boot" after the tablet's been on a while- you'll see that all this "bloatware" isn't even a factor in the parts of the system that count.

It's a root feature isn't it? Try using Root Browser Lite or something that has root access. Not sure if ES does.

Make sure you have root access enabled and system mounted as writable.

They are in ES file explorer's settings all the way at the bottom.

I must be doing something wrong, can't figure this out. Even the instructions on here and videos online I find seem to be for older version of ES File b/c it looks nothing like mine. They say to go to settings, check off root explorer and check mount file systems.... there's no settings like that in my settings.

There's another option on mine through "fast access" where you click root explorer and gives you options like one key install, mount r/w etc. But not sure, see what you guys say before I play around with it lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fiffan86:
They revamped all the menus, I had to play around with it but you need to click on the mount r/w and a su request will pop up, then click OK to all the things you want as r/w. I was able to delete some of the files after I did all that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
If you indeed are using ES File Explorer then there must be a setting for that, regardless which version.

I'm using it from v1 to v2 and recently v3.

It's there, look for it.

Wouldnt something like this work too?

[General Accessories] vectron:
No, that charger is a joke even for a standard battery, toooooo slow in charging due to only 350mA supply. Also, it plugs in to the wall while you need something that will plug in to the external wall charger with usb/micro-usb. Not every charger will work. You need something similar to what I have above.
[General Accessories] drnihili:
I agree that the supply is too weak on that charger, however the form factor should work if you have an outlet on a horizontal surface. Powerstrips are often placed in this way. You just need to find one with a good 2A output.

I did this mod and it charged my zerolemon battery and it fit. purchased that same charger from the link. so far so good. I now own 2 of these zerolemon batteries, so hopefully this modded charger will keep me free from all cords.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Does your led turns blue when it's done charging? I think I have been tweaking my charger too much with mods and fitments, cause now I feel like charger is not making a good contact with a battery. I had it on for a long time and only got up to 78% which wasn't like before. Either way, this is the only charger cradle I found so far that can fit ZL and uses external USB wall charger. I hope ZL will come through with their own fast external charger!
[General Accessories] JesseMT4G:
Wonder if my Anker charger will work. Debating in this battery, but been happy with my Hyperion 6200 so far a d fits fine in my Anker external charger. Takes about 10 hours to charge, but don't use it everyday and always have a back up Anker 3100 on back up.

Fancy pants Note ||:)
[General Accessories] wase4711:
hey vectron, since you have ZL's "ear", tell them they should expand this catagory to include home /desk chargers, car chargers, and a couple of cases. Obviously, the chargers need to be a bit higher capacity, but, they should already have this stuff on the drawing board/test phase..

I was in the automotive battery/charger business for many years, and I know how successful a program like this can/should/will be!
[General Accessories] vectron:
I think they are well aware of the demand for all this stuff, but it seems they are focusing mainly on batteries. Heard from someone ZL will have 3x capacity S4 battery in a few weeks. So their #1 priority is a battery, and with so many new popular phones, it keeps them pretty busy.

What we need is one of those universal wall chargers that can supply 2A. If you look on ebay, they do have universal chargers where contact location could be moved to adapt to different batteries and it also expands for different battery sizes. But they all have internal converter built in and limited to 500-600mA. Someone in HK needs to realize all new phones use 1A-2A chargers.
[General Accessories] vectron:
I was able to zoom in on Amazon into Anker charger and from close up its 600 mA, so we are talking about 16 hours of charge time for ZL. This confirms your charging time of 6200 mAh / 600 mA = 10.3 hr. I do believe Anker charger will fit ZL.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] dhilgaertner:
They basically told me you guys over here at this forum are more intelligent in this area. I've searched this forum and couldn't find any solutions to this problem so I have posted this message with hope that it will be solved.

Here is a copy of my message I posted on www.clubimate.com
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] JamesManios:
When you run the ROM update, are you still trying to run the 1.66.131 ROM? If so, you might want to try the 1.52.113 ROM to see if you can at least get your device back.

When the Radio update failed how far did it get into the Radio update, (what percentage?)

I had a similar problem when trying to downgrade, the Radio failed at 12%, (which I was told was a security feature)... either way, what I did was in this...

1.66.131 - Update, (which worked for me)

1.03.00 - Downgrade (which failed at the radio stack and would not boot)

I then went into bootloader, (reset, power, up) and you should see Serial/USB 1.01 screen...

Then put the device in the cradle and ran the 1.52.113 'update' and the device was fine (back to 1.52.113)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] IanF:
I had a similar problem were the upgrade failed part way through updating the Radio stack (after the Erase).

Fortunatly the main ROM had upgraded OK and I simply hard reset and started again.

Some things I have noticed:

1) Never leave the PC unattanded - stop it from going into screen saver

2) Make sure all programs are shut down on the PC - Too much activity causes my USB ActiveSync link to close

3) Close Firewall software - I use ZoneLabs and the upgrade hates it

Just a few things to try
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] vpreHoose:
The other thing you can try is performing the ruu when the device is in Bootloader. Press and hold power, the Actio key (in the middle of the Joystick) and soft reset.

Connect your device to the PC and run the ruu update.

That should work.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] dhilgaertner:
Where do I get a RUU for iMates? iMates website doesnt have one.

Also the radio stack update fails at the beginning of the erasing part, it is still at 0% when it errors.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] JamesManios:
The clubimate site does have the RUU for both 1.66.131 and for 1.52.113, goto Tools\Device\iMates\Full Device etc...

Its towards the bottom...
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] dhilgaertner:
Yes that is the same update that gives me the error when I get to the Radio stack part of the update. It leaves me with a 1.66 rom and a blank radio and protocol version (if you were to look in device information).
