Hi guys

i have a orange SPV m2000 in french, i'm english...you can see my problem.

to solve this would it be a case of flashing an english ROM? or is there a simpler method of adding some language pack
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] RTP:
As far as I know, you would need to flash to an english ROM. You also need to be careful of keyboard layouts. I believe there are some patches on the FTP site.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onolox:
Since JB 4.1.2, the nandroid backups have become useless for me.

I install a official samsung rom via Odin, then I install NeatRom, then, make nandroid backups via CWM.

Then, if I try to restore one of them via recorery, I have the bootloop.

None of the previous backups works. I have tried every option, format system, data, etc.. Scripts of cleaning. Clear cache, dalvik, factory reset.

The only option is Titanium Backup. That saves me for now.

In the past the 2.3, 2.2, 2.1 versions are rock solid in terms of nandroid backup and bootloop.

My question is: There's a way to really use the nandroid backups today? Because, for me today, they are useless.

NeatRom 4.6, philz kernel LSW.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
Well im guessing you havnt backed up the rom properly and havnt included the Preload partition, its the same size as system but holds all the apk's in stock jb roms. So without that partition it isnt possible for the rom to boot.

Im confused by how youve worded your post. 'None of my previous backups work' i assume you mean previous jb backups? As they wont work if preload isnt included. I restored a gb backup from stock jb with philz lastnight. All works fine.

And also youve said you flashed a Stock official samsung rom via odin. And have made a backup in recovery, you said stock rom so i assume stock recovery. That wont backup preload.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paul Blake:
Search... I saw that is a script to backup/restore preload

Also philz kernel have option to choose what to backup (data+system+preload+efs+modem+kernel+recovery)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onolox:
Sorry, I forgot to mention more cleary. I backup via philz kernel CWM.

I use the default options, I will look now the options mentioned here.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onolox:
Hum, the option preload is not marked by default, why?

The other options mentioned by krazy1101 I don't have here. Only preload, md5 and compression.

If I include the preload the backup will work?

And if this is necessary to the backup to work, why the hell is not marked by default?

There's a way to make my previous backup's without the preload work?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Yes will work if you include preload and don't no why its not default. And no forget them old nands. Go to custom back up for extra options
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
It's because /preload wasn't necessary before JB, since JB our /system partition is too small to hold all the new system apps, so via symlink we use the previously hidden partition /preload as an extension for it,a similar(if not the same) concept of link2sd. So basically if /preload isn't backed up you aren't backing up important system files, thereby causing bootloops.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jebuchanan:
It isn't included as default because only the n7000 and i9100 use Preload. The other phones do not.

Why is it that once I connect to miracast it will disconnect from wifi? Is it hardware limitation or software bug? My Samsung note 2 can connect on both miracast and still maintain wifi connection.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mddsd:
I believe that Sonys implementation of Miracast is wrong.

From what I read, Miracast it self allows for up to 10 connections and as you say your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 can handle both network connection and Miracast.

There's two threads at Sony's Xperia Forum that discuss this problem.

At first the Xperia Team said it was by design, but when several users explained that Samsung phones can have a Wifi connection active at the same time and that all Nexus phones running 4.2.2 could also handle this,

then the Xperia Team said that they would escalate the issue, but after that there has been no more feedback...

Here's the threads at Sony's Xperia Forum:

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CandyAndy:
This is actually a really bad thing. I also purchased the push2tv system so could stream Netflix and YouTube from my tablet. No luck with that. My HTC one does it without problems.

I am starting to think that what if the random wifi disconnections are related and is because Sony uses only one antenna while there should be two.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] om22:
actually the tablet z uses MIMO and has 2 antennas. in my opinion it´s clearly a software restriction.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kiikooo:
I had the same issue since i bought the dock and push2tv for the same reason. Unfortunately nothing so far. It is definitely a software problem as Sony seems to have fixed it with the Xperia Z Ultra. It works fine while still connected to wifi.

The Xperia Z disconnects also by the way.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
Is it a restriction on the S4, over Snapdragon 800? That could be why the Ultra (and then Honami) works.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMCP:
So it was not fixed with 4.2.2? LOL
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
No. I have to assume it's a hardware restriction then, or Sony can't or won't fix it.

I am now using MHL, which seems like a far easier solution - although even that cuts the performance of the phone considerably. Epic Citadel can benchmark at around 59fps on the phone display, but output via HDMI and it drops things to 30-40fps.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisMCP:
weird, some say it works on T, so why would XZ and XTZ be affected?:rolleyes:
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
That's weird if it works on the T. I think this needs to be clarified. If it does, Sony really should be able to make it work, or else asked why they went backwards with the Z/TZ by changing the Wi-Fi specs/antennas.

I am going to go and check my Nexus 4 and see if that retains the connection. Previously I couldn't connect it to my TV but a new LG update on the TV has hopefully fixed things.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CandyAndy:
So did Sony really f*ck this up here. Unbelievable..I must say that I am so disappointed now. I was hoping to stream Netflix from the tablet.

Maybe I then have to get chromecast when available in Europe. I assume that it doesn't use miracast to do the streaming but likely it will stream on its own.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
Right, just tried my Nexus 4 and it does keep the Wi-Fi connection. However, there's a lot more lag and the TV image doesn't quite keep up. What's more, the picture breaks up when it doesn't on the Xperia Z.

However, having an Internet connection does of course mean you can now stream TV and movies with Netflix or Google Play. Play crashed when playing a film though, and I have to say I didn't realise it could output a different screen. Netflix doesn't support this, and I'm not sure what else might (perhaps YouTube and other Google apps?).

Anyway, here are some photos I took;

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
Forget it, guys.

This concept of streaming stuff from the tablet is going to fade anyway.

For Youtube, Netflix etc. simply shell out $35 and get a Chromecast.

Or buy a Raspberry Pi and make your own Chromecast-y device.

Or buy a Satellite receiver like the Vu+ Solo2 and use Airplayer plugin.

All these solutions have in common that the streaming happens on the other device, not the tablet, and therefore is simply more stable and reliable (especially when a wired network connection is used). The tablet is only a controller, a"chooser" for media. (That's also more battery-friendly, by the way.)
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CandyAndy:
Yes I know it should keep the wifi connection. I am mirrorring with my HTC One and wifi doesn't disconnect.

Only problem with HTC One is that after using for an hour or so the phone will get so hot that I get some warning message about it.

So that much for watching a movie like that.

---------- Post added at 12:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

Yes thats basically the better way to do it. I also do have WDTV Live and I can basically use Youtube so that I control with tablet and play on the big screen. Unfortunately the software on WDTV Live is buggy as hell and it crashes every now and then.

Also for some reason Netflix doesn't have this similar possibility.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
I agree that the Chromecast way of doing things is the way forward for streaming services. However, I'd have liked to be able to play games without lag/dropped frames on the big-screen - and it seems that with or without the Wi-Fi connection staying open, the quality isn't quite there.

Maybe Snapdragon 800 improves this - and that could be something to sway me towards Honami - but perhaps Miracast will remain useful for showing off photo and videos stored locally (your own content) as a far better option than DLNA that rarely, if ever, works with modern video formats and resolutions.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
Things like Miracast etc. are mostly used at home, where you have your TV or projector.

But at home it's not necessary to store the videos on a tablet and then stream them to the TV.

At home one has some kind of NAS from which the files are fetched.

I admit that for a long time I also thought about using the tablet as media hub / storage.

But if one thinks a bit about it and researches, it becomes obvious that much better and tried-and-tested options exist.

And for all other cases (like projecting different apps or playing a game on the big screen) the Tablet Z has a MHL/HDMI output, that's what it's for.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
Even MHL slows the phone down, which must be a hardware limitation of the phone.

SlimPort is even worse. I don't know what sort of handshaking is carried out with that, but on my Nexus 4 when I was at CES I was on the stand of a company making them and we hooked my phone up to have the phone crash (even restarting on occasion) within seconds of connecting it.

I'd be interested to see if Snapdragon 800 has less problems with TV output, via Miracast or a cable - but the idea of using the smartphone as a remote to control streaming directly to a device (like a TV with a wired Internet connection) certainly makes sense. Google has once again come up with something great here, and it's probably totally the opposite of the direction Apple intends to take TV in the future.

Hi guys, has anyone else had problems connecting their XTZ using miracast? I have the push2tv and my HTC One connects perfectly, but my Xperia tablet gives the error "Could not turn on screen mirroring. The output device does not support HDCP". It seems very strange as the tablet is listed the supported devices on Netgear's site.

I have the 312 version, and have the latest firmware on the push2tv.

Hi all,

Can Sony jolly well FIX this bug or else please do not call it "WI-FI CERTIFIED" on the box?!

By the way, Netgear removed the "WI-FI CERTIFIED" logo from their 802.11n USB dongle box. Does "Wi-Fi Certified" mean that it must support multiple wifi connections?

On a positive note, Bluetooth speakers and Miracast works OK on the Z but not on Samsung devices.

I think the reason why some people can get wifi and miracast to work is because they are only using one antenna to connect to their AP and the other for miracast.

Can anyone confirm if they have an AP link speed of over 150mbps while using miracast?

On the official Sony rom I have a link speed of 325mbps and miracast and wifi wont work using the method above. If I switch to a custom rom like cm11 - 12 or omnirom my link speed will never go above 150mbps but I can use miracast with wifi

Hi all,

I have a HTC Desire Z and having an issue with it, it is a stock standard DZ. Done some searching and couldn't find anything like this with a solution. So tonight my phone vibrated in my pocket like i received a message. When i got it out the screen was black. None of the buttons were responding so i removed the battery and restarted the phone.

The phone now gets stuck in the bootloader every time I turn it on. When in the bootloader none of the buttons respond, meaning i cant select anything. Have tried cleaning the volume buttons, they were a bit dirty but it didn't fix it.

So when it boots it goes into a white screen, Fastboot and bootloader are highlighted

My question is, has anyone experienced this problem? Does anyone know how to get the phone to boot properly.

Thanks for any help.

[General Questions and Answers] crisosma:
Hi guys

So, I got a friend that is going to Japan next month and I thought that she can buy me a new cell phone (galaxy s4 or xperia ZR) there.

I've been reading on the net that it is really difficult to buy a cell phone or even a sim card if you are no resident. It depends on the store that you are buying.

My question is: Is this cell phone going to work in my country, this case Brazil.

I asked this because in the past Japanese cell phones didn't use sim cards and networks where different, and I don't know how is it now.

Also, it can be network locked so it would't work with my carrier here.

any of you have some experience buying a cell phone in japan?

Thank you very much in advanced
[General Questions and Answers] Product F(RED):
I would advise buying against phones from Japan because most of them are tailored to their weird networks (general statement). I'd check what frequencies are used by your carrier and what frequencies the phone you're friend is going to buy supports. Japanese phones in general are usually made to operate in Japan with minimal support for extended use in other countries (e.g. you may get EDGE but that's it).
[General Questions and Answers] crisosma:
Thank you very much.

Looking on the web, I saw that there is a Sony store that sells international versions of their products. (And also a tax reduction :) )

Maybe I can find something there, looking at the webpage didn't find any cell phones.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepasadish:
I am one of the unlucky ones that have the nexus 4 slow wifi issue. My wifi speed crawls sometimes at like 1mbps.

Already implemented the fix at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2300873 (thank you!) and I think it helps overall but not in the following scenario.

I have xbmc loaded on the nexus 4 and a hdhomerun on the LAN. I can stream 720p 60fps or 1080i 30fps ATSC broadcast video over the N wireless without any issues to my laptop.

Doing the same on my nexus 4 it either buffers or stutters (misses packets) and my wifi speed will drop.

For example, before running xbmc my nexus 4 will show 65mbps. Once I start the video, it will play for about 5 secs and then stutter. If I check my wifi speed now, it will show 1mbps. It is as if the nexus 4 just can't sustain a high speed transfer over wifi.

Anybody else experience this? Any possible solutions? Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smallsmx3:
Xmbc is tricky add it's still kind of beta software. Which build of xmbc are you running ? Currently the official build does not support HW acceleration on android. So HD video will always play that way. There is a custom build that let's you use MX player which allows HW acceleration. I sometimes have a hard time getting videos to play on this build but when I do it's great. There are also experimental builds based off of the official one that had HW acceleration. I like this one better but sometimes I get booted out of xmbc and have to load everything up because the app restarts. Xmbc for android is coming along. But until then HW acceleration becomes a stable addition HD video will be a crap shoot. For more I would say that the fro do 12.2 official build is most stable for me on my n4. It's not the WiFi that's the problem. You will just have to suck it up and stream SD video. I've been battling thus for the past month. And to complicate things I'm streaming via miracast dongle to my TV.
