[AT&T HTC One (M7)] XGhozt:
Actually it's nice to have a search button where if I'm in the app drawer I can tap that and search for an app. Or if I'm on the home screen it opens google now. Or on a browser, it's a quick search button. You get the idea. What's the alternative now? How do you open Google Now or search for apps quickly?

I hate the way the S4 looks, and the S3. The huge rounded corners are a big turn off. I would end up getting that if I can't put up with the limitations the one has to offer.

Actually, I don't care about that.. I can optimize android to get what I need out of it. But I do like the ability to replace it if it dies or degrades in performance in a year from now, or say.. my phone is frozen, taking out the battery is often the fastest way to turn the damn thing off. Most of my stuff is in the cloud now, so I don't see me needing to replace my SD card. But it has occationally come in handy when I want to just pop it into my laptop to transfer some large files. I'm going to miss that.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] dxwilliams40:
I'm usually a Samsung guy but the one is amazing. We complain about the battery being no good over time and needing the ability to swap out. However, we get the next best thing after a year or so of use then sell the current device. The one is good. I haven't even rooted yet. I can wait until we get a stock RUU.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Marcismo55:
If I have any issues with the battery I am calling Squaretrade and getting a replacement. That's the great thing about having insurance even though I am not even sure If I will be using this device for the full 2 years. Also, if you hold the power button down for 10 seconds its just like pulling the battery, but much faster.

I came from having a Galaxy SIII on Verizon, switched to ATT with a Galaxy SII Skyrocket and am now a happy camper with my One. The biggest hurdle was getting over not having the same capacitive buttons and how much faster the One is.

By no means am I a heavy user but I am sitting here with 60% battery going on just over 8 hours.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] WindroidApps:
Lol I love being to put a beastly 7000 mah battery in my phone to get 3 days of battery. But if I can't, it isn't that big of a deal. Btw I'm not a Samsung fan boy, I'm a fan of whatever is the best.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] joshuadjohnson22:
On a custom rom you can map the other buttons to do a menu and maybe even a search (I'm not sure)

Holding power+vol up and down simulates pulling the battery

Right now there is not a way to remove sense, you can use 3rd party launchers for now. They are working on pure android ROMs and development will be GREAT on this device. I have owned a S2 and played with the One and the One is SWEET. (I'm still waiting for my black to arrive). I have a HTC One XL and think it is MUCH better than my S2. Just get it, You will love it. Or wait for development to grow a little to give you all those features

Great Job .

Just Flash With Flashtool ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] infernovip:
Yeap, you need to use flashtool: http://androxyde.github.io/

if you dont know how to flash you need to find some manual here on forum or in other place

for example:

http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?start=0&tstart=0
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hlcxcx:
Thank you bro. Great job.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:

thanks friend, installed last night and doing very well. Spain
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lastsamuraial:
Are there any differences between this and the Taiwanese one?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CONdemmedNORmal:
The main difference will be the pre installed apps nothing more really
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] s4tch:
Mainly the apps. Not much bloatware in it: Wisepilot, some Sony apps, and that's all. This fw is a bit smaller than the Taiwanese. Same fw, same kernel.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] petulinka1:
Hi,

I'm preparing dark version of Phonebook and Conversations, but I need some files from this firmware version because I don't have XP... Can you please upload framework-res.apk, SemcGenericUxp-res.apk, SemcPhone.apk, Phonebook and Conversations? Thank you very much! :)

EDIT: I have these files from now.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] atarum0r0:

Can anyone confirm if beaming photos from Album works??I tried with my GNex but it says Content not supported.Was it like this in ICS??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lastsamuraial:
It would be great.White is not very pleasent for some of us.:)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vyker:
Does anyone know if using Flashtool to upgrade to JB from ICS will wipe all the data and apps? or does it upgrade them all?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
There's a option after you choose ftf for wiping data, try uncheck it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] atarum0r0:
its ver strange but album not works
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] infernovip:
all works perfectly

reflash again

follow instructions here:

http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/35239?start=0&tstart=0

briefly:

FLASHMODE

(v) wipe all

(v) exclude TA

(v) no veryfication

when flash end, disconnect phone and turn it ON you will have to wait some time in first boot

maybe you do something with your phone earlier?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] vaorr:
Gps problem... I cant fix gps in portugal...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] atarum0r0:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] umz_786:
This is great! I dont like the white version! I have got the files you asked for. They are at this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ysbwjinl45ig4eb/Semc.zip

GOOD LUCK!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thehavoc:
I think NFC is not working that well, I flashed it last night and kept trying to send files via NFC to my S3, at first it does send on Albums through NFC + bluetooth but after that, it's not gonna send anything at all. to send another file, I have to turn of NFC and turn it on again just so I could transfer something.

I flashed this without wiping data, only the cache. everything works but the battery seems to be.. really bad. I think what made the build so smooth is because of the project butter? maybe.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
I made a full wipe before flashing this one and battery is being great to me.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Miqueas111:
Please, man, could you tell me how to do a full wipe?

Should I install CWM and enter recovery, wipe data/Cache/dalvik reboot, turn off device, flash JB with flashtool?

I'm using JB stock Taiwannesse but i'm getting a huge battery drain.

I know how to flash, i just need how to do a full wipe.

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] panecondoin:
If you flash via Flashtool the wipes are usually done by default.

You can check or uncheck relevant boxes just before you actually flash the firmware you want to.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] shawonh:
Does It need another kernel???
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sephirothrx7:
The ftf already contains the kernel for jb.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TMacPT:
Hi guys.

Flash it a 5 days ago. Evething works great except the battery! it´s going to fast! Any fix?

Another thing, in the ICS i try a lot of times to root the XP but never work (try a lot off methods) but don´t work because somehow loose the USB Debugging.

What i want to now if for the JB (this version) is already available a easy root for JB XP??

Regards,

TMacPT

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] daniel040:
unlock your bootloader, flash a custom kernel AND/OR flash a custom rom like JBMoonbreaker & Enigma both are pre-rooted, debloated and has better performance and battery life than the stock one :highfive:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TMacPT:
Hi again,

My BL can´te be unlock.!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Miqueas111:
Which kernel do you recommend? I'm going to try using stock first, then I'll try some custom rom like you mentioned.

*Anyway I'm going to unlock the bootloader, seems to be dificult :(

Thanks in advance, man.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] daniel040:
sliding_xp or nemesis . yah, try stock kernel with a custom rom . if still not happy, unlock BL then flash a custom kernel :good: unlocking the bootloader is easy, just follow the steps on sony's website :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Miqueas111:
What I meant to say is that I'm going to use a custom kernel with stock rom, first. In case, I'm not happy with it, I'll try a custom rom.

Anyway, thanks man, it really helps.

Unlocking BL...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] daniel040:
oww , i thought you meant the other way around :p . goodluck :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TeraXimoS:
About to flash it, and thanks a lot

but please tell me, does it read and write with Arabic?? I know there's no Arabic system and menus, and this not harms me, but I need it to read Arabic of course

please look and notify me :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DutchPlayer:
Thanks for posting this ROM. SE helpdesk couldn't help me with the problem I have that the Sony update Software keeps telling me my phone software is up to date but it's still on build 6.1.1.B.1.54. Helpdesk dude told me I had to wait until the software update is available for my phone. Stupid thing is the SE website tells me that the update should be available.

Had some problems with Wifi so I want to try out the new software build. Only thing I would like to know, when you use this ROM, the phone isn't rooted right?

=====

• REQUIRED APPS:

Nova Launcher/Prime – recommended for swipe down to see status bar

Desktop Visualizer

Zooper Widgets

Eye in the Sky widgets

UCCW

Multipicture Live Wallpaper

and a bit patience :)

If you prefer BLACK : Download the base image from:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gbrdcjow96x8vz5/amTEerYVBI#f:BlackFinal copy1.jpg

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gbrdcjow96x8vz5/amTEerYVBI#f:WhiteFinal copy.jpg

UCCW Battery:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gbrdcjow96x8vz5/tywsIacwNv/bat.uzip

Put it in your SD Card.

=====

APPLICATION SET-UP/SETTINGS:

NOVA LAUNCHER:

• 12×12 desktop grid

• Hide status bar

• Hide dock/disable

• Gesture down for status bar (optional prime)

• App label = disable/do not show

————-

Multipicture Live Wallpaper (MPLW)

Menu bar/tap and hold desktop – wall paper – live wall paper.

• Make sure the common settings – Crop/Resize Ratio is FIT TO FULL SCREEN

• Screen 1 settings – picture source – select the file (white or black depends to ur phone)

APPLY WALL PAPER.

———-

EYE IN THE SKY WIDGETS

• Select the forecast and customize your desire color.

I prefer teal since it matches the font color for text/calls/mail

• It will display the icons of clouds etc… so i made it thinner to hide the clouds :D

—————-

UCCW – battery/sms/call/mail count

• Download from https://www.dropbox.com/s/hsxcsiycw5mwhj1/bat.uzip

• Copy to /sdcard/UltimateCustomClockWidget folder

• I assume you know how to use it and import as file the uzip file… resize to match/aline with text/calls/Mail

(ask me if you do not know how to use UCCW.. search first)

————————-

DESKTOP VISUALIZER

• Basically, the marbles inside will serve as the app icon.. so we need blank PNG.

download at https://www.dropbox.com/s/gzmnntu3ewb5x75/Copy of blank.png

• Always select 1×1 DeskVis widget and just resize it to fit the icons.

just set up the widgets(do not configure yet to avoid confusion) see image: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8exa8nzsqewttre/tutDV.png

• after polotting, then configure each one, icons will be the BLANK PNG and select the app to launch

• select NONE for the touch effect

• Clear label text/name

• Vibration, select on or system/haptic

do that for all of the DV set ups and lastly..

tap and hold on anywhere (not with the widgets) Nova actions, select APP Drawer.

just fit it near the APP marble and for the icon, select blank as well.

Go to nova settings again and lock desktop to avoid moving invisible DV widgets.

I almost forgot, for zooper widget.. just select the default from the list and modify the location/colors if you want too… recommended to select 5×1 above size.

DONE…

thanks and enjoy.. comment for any help. :D

DONT FORGET TO HIT IT THANKS! or buy me a BEER lol :D

You mean after reboot, you can see sony screen and got black screen after. If using flashtool, get any .ftf that you like, install the drivers first, then flash it. Remember, only connect the phone when flashtool ask you to. If youre still on locked bootloader, pc companion - repair would be easier.

Hi folks got this today for the mrs, just posting my thoughts on it :)

It's quite a bit more than I've spent on a case before but looking at the other alternatives at the time, decided it was the best of limited options...

I wanted a case I wouldn't have to remove completely every time the phone needed charging and with as much protection as possible (for when thrown in a bag with keys, brushes, coins and anything else imaginable...)

Standard shipment from France to the UK was quick and traceable (2 days dhl) I'd ordered a custom color though so total time was 2nd April to today.

The Case

Packaging & Presentation

It comes in a nice box and drawstring bag, before even seeing the item you feel 'this is a quality product' good marketing by them for sure.

Initial Impressions

Looks a bit jagged on some edges with a definite 'man-made' feel to it, overall it seems like a really good quality case but I do have some concerns detailed below.

In Use

Phone in the case it feels solid and secure, when shut it doesn't feel like it's going to open, discovered a certain push/slide technique to shut with minimum effort.

The 'fold away part' that allows you to fold it away for placing in dock is very secure (a little bit too secure for my liking but maybe with time it will become easier...at the moment i'm noticing sort of 'pressure marks?' on the screen when opening it, there's definitely a technique required to avoid putting too much stress on the phone when undoing this bit.

In The Dock

That is how it should be :D unfortunately the clasps on the power button side and bottom IMO aren't quite secure enough and missing an extra one (which would cover the headphone port...) so unless you place emphasis on holding the phone *and the case* when putting it in the dock it'll easily end up like this

I had hoped I wouldn't have to make any alterations but I feel it will definitely need some refix/double sided tape as per the simplism? version.

If the phone didn't drop out of the case in the docking procedure sometimes it would've been perfect but being a realist I do understand the complications of creating a case for this dock...

Overall I'm slightly disappointed that it didn't do exactly what I hoped it would, out of the box, but it's certainly well made and feels good in normal use.
[Xperia Z Accessories] leminhnguyen0703:
Looks like a great product. I'm planning to order the Ivoire colour. Just a few question, how does the leather feels and does it add much thickness to the phone ?
[Xperia Z Accessories] m1keyb:
The leather feels really soft and it does add quite a bit of thickness, it feels slightly padded and gives a little when you touch it, in comparison to a leather case i had for my s2 which was hard with no padding. If i get the same phone when my contract is due for renewal in a few months id be looking for a case of the same sort of quality but to be used with a wireless charger. Im not that impressed with the procedure of docking it in this case but it may become less of a chore as it wears a bit.
[Xperia Z Accessories] leminhnguyen0703:
I'm not looking to get a dock any time soon so docking isn't a problem to me. Thanks, I'll be ordering one next week :P
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lawnguy:
I've been around for some time and never encountered this. I fastboot flash recovery and it just hangs at sending, bootloader shows empty green bar at the right side. PJ75IMG won't run. And goo manager says it installs but never does.

Just got this phone last night as a replacement from bb. Unlock bootloader works fine and I've relocked and unlocked again to no avail. Any one gotta clue what I'm missing? Phone is on 3.16, with 2.09 bootloader. I've tried twrp 2.3.2.0, 2.3.3.0, 2.4.1.0, and 2.5....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tilltheend714:
Without being s-off, the only way to install the recovery is to fastboot flash. You need su for goo manager. You need s-off for PJ75IMG. Check to see if you have the drivers installed, try a different usb cable. Fastboot should work if everything is right.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] corcgaigh:
USB debugging maybe. I'm guessing but its worth a shot

SENT FROM MY LTEVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
If you're still unlocked, try putting the attached PJ75IMG.zip on the root of your external SD card and see if the bootloader picks it up.

EDIT: Well I'm glad you don't need it now because I just had about 10 failed attempts to upload the file :rolleyes:. Time to find a new mobile browser.

EDIT 2: Finally got a browser to upload it, so here it is in case someone else needs it.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lameplx:
I got inspired by the design of Google Now and the new Play Store, so decided to give it a go on the Android settings, and battery menu. I'm hoping that Google goes towards this direction with Key Lime Pie, I don't really like the dark menus.

What do you guys think? :)

Would anyone be interested in helping me make a CM10.1 theme out of this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
looks good. Im pretty sure that this is what google is planning for the new ui in klp. The new playstores ui is similar to this-(holo light theme, with brighter colours)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingo64:
Using your phone at night would burn out your retinas if Google are planning on using a theme like this. Also light themes are bad on AMOLED devices for both battery and display life. On the bright side, your mockup drawings are perfect.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rocket321:
I see this question come up once in a while here, and I had a similar thread on the ET4G about this so I thought I'd recreate it here for you S3 folks. I recently flashed to LJ7 to do some testing and while there was getting bugged by the OTA update, so I tried this method out and confirmed it does work on the S3 as well.

[How-to] Disable OTA updates on Stock + Rooted ROMs

1. Download FOTAKill.apk* and copy to your Phone/SD

2. Use a root explorer (such as ES Explorer) to copy the file to /system/app

3. If the update already downloaded, use your root explorer to delete it from /cache

4. reboot

If the update notice is still in the notification bar after the reboot, simply swipe it away. That should be the last time you are ever prompted to update via OTA. Even if you manually go to system update and click check now it will no longer offer you the OTA. You can simply delete the apk from /system/app to reverse this mod.

*Credit for the apk goes to the CM team and or the folks who create the gapps packages!

*If anyone would like to make a CWM flashable I would be happy to add it here and give you credit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
CNexus created a

really good sticky guide to talk about OTAs

. You might want to post this over there. Could you let us know what FOTAKill does? Does it work regardless of phone/carrier?
