[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trafford Devil:
The native Sony implementation requires you to have a USB OTG cable or a mini USB to micro USB cable to pair the DS3 with the Z.

If you're rooted however you can use the Sixaxis controller app to pair without the need for a USB OTG cable.

I use the moga pro and once you figure out gamekeyboard it works just as good if not better than ps3 controller but I'm sure others would disagree,

Just needs more support from big game devs like more gameloft games and I would love glu games to be supported, but it's only going to get better as game devs support more controllers and HID, love playing DS games with my moga though I can play all the pokemons I never played now! (using draStic)

Unofficial controllers

Hi, does anyone know if can I connect other unofficial controllers to my Xperia Z3 Compact? I dont have the original PS3 controller from Sony and I want to buy a cheaper, unofficial one.

Do you know if will it work? Do I have to do a different process to connect it?

Thanks

Hi there.

I got an idea and I think it would be awesome but I don't know how to make widgets for UCCW.

The idea is a click wheel as in the iPods and that it work the same. It doesn't needs to say any song info (optional) just change the songs and play pause.

Thanks, if it exists please share

[HTC Sensation] ezzony:
Hi I need help with trying to repair my sensation z710e.

I had to replace the digitizer today. I followed a couple of guides i found online. I was very careful and gentle throughout the procedure. Unfortunately I did break a cable which lights up the bottom row of buttons. It was glued solidly to the digitizer but even as i scraped at it as gently as I could it snapped. Okay , not the end of the world. I was warned about it in the guide but it was just glued to solidly.

Anyway put everything back together and got a boot loop when i turned on. I rebotted into the bootloader to see what would happen, that worked fine but when I selected recovery the thing just froze and rebooted and continued to boot loop.

I then tried to re-flash the radio file PG58IMG.img but wasn't allowed to as the phone reported that the batter was too low.

So i plugged it in and left it there for an hour or two switched off.

But the current situation now is that the phone won't turn on at all. When the charger is plugged in the orange LED is on but flashes to Off for a second every 10 seconds. Does anyone know if this is a code for something.

It looks to me that the battery died and didn't charge at all when I plugged it in earlier. Could that be due to bricked firmware? I have no way of telling if the battery is actually dead as I don't have the equipment to test. I have a feeling I can save this phone somehow. Any ideas anyone? Thanks.
[HTC Sensation] erdal67:
The orange blinks mean that your battery is drained to the fullest. So you need to recharge it. Plug the phone in a 'wall charger' not computer or ps3 whatever just straight from the wall charger keep im mind it could take an hour to recover but when it happened to me it took 30 mins to get enough juice to power on

EDIT:

Alternative if the charging doesnt work.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GiftigDegen:
My MT4GS has some serious RAM issues. I even think it may have leaky or bad RAM. Basically, Android will close background apps to make room to run new apps, right? So here's what mine does: When I load an app, Sense closes. And when I try and play games like Draw Something which require a second app (FB mobile) to log in, it closes Sense AND Draw Something. So I'll tap Draw Something, it'll load, then switch to FB Mobile, log in, then switch back to Draw Something but because it closed Draw Something it has to start loading from scratch, requiring a new log in, then when it does that it closes Draw Something again. It basically creates an infinite loop, if I let it run without hitting back (several times) or home. And then I get to wait for Sense again.

I've tried third party RAM apps and they don't seem to help. (I don't understand how they could anyway.) So I'm hoping someone has a solution outside of rooting.

But if not, I've never rooted a device of any kind before. So I'm really apprehensive to try it without detailed knowledge of every step required. And if I rooted, I'd probably want a new ROM, yes? I've heard Bulletproof is nice, but I don't know a lot about others.

All help is appreciated. Thank you.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] WeekendsR2Short:
Rooting is no big deal. We could have you rooted in 15 minutes. I believe achieving "S-Off" is what you're trying to avoid......even though it's not too bad either. But it sounds like you may have used up any swap file your system has & could stand a bit more. Probably installed quite a few apps that are running in the background. You could probably reformat your SD Card to Ext4 and get rid of the issue but you'll need a custom recovery. That's how it sounds to me anyway.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] GiftigDegen:
I do have a few background apps, but I've tried to avoid a ton and I only have one widget running.

I'm willing to do what I need to to get my phone working the way it was intended.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] NooBOnTheBlock:
Ouutside of root...factory reset and watch what you install...there's little chance for a permanent fix outside of root though...inside root...or once your rooted...use es task manager and es startup manager...my mytouch was doing something very similas until rooted...also the v6 super charger will definitely help once your rooted...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
I have two Google accounts that I use on my phone. One is just used for purchases and the other is for a personal email. So my issue is I bought this app to unlock the full version under one account, the one I use for my purchases, but to do this I had to remove my personal email account. After adding that account back, the app tries to use the Google play account I just use for email and says that I need to purchase the app to unlock the full version. Anybody have any idea how to fix this without permanently removing one account?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Why not just remove the email account from the phone and use the paid account for your phone, launch the Gmail app and then add the email account. That will pretty much do what you're wanting.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
After readding the account it asks me to repurchase my iap. Somehow it defaults back to the other account as the default and since I purchased it on the other account it doesn't verify that I've bought it.

So far I've viewed a few threads with similar issues, but no solutions. I've found one, but it requires root. Remove the account, buy the app, make a tib, add the account, and then restore the tib

I don't use the Gmail app anyways, but I have had some past purchases on my other account that always end up having the apps trial period expire and say I don't own the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
It sounds like you need to delete both accounts, along with the purchased apps and then only add the account you buy apps pin back to the phone and reinstall your apps. You should probably clear all Play Store and Google Services Framework data.

Then if you want the email back add it in only the Gmail app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yeah, but like I said I keep having issues with power amp when I do it that way since I bought that a long time ago on my old DROID on that account. It keeps defaulting back to trial. I think this case is unique since it was an iap. Every time I add that account back it gets reattached since I initially downloaded off the dummy account. When I couldn't get the account to change for the purchase, I deleted my dummy Gmail account and bought it. I guess I could just cough up money and buy power amp again lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Well the way I understand is you are adding them both to the phone instead of just adding one to the phone and then going in Gmail and adding the email account there.

If I am wrong maybe you need to contact Google and explain the issue and see if they have a fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
Yeah, but what I'm saying is I need both added otherwise power amp always results back to the trial app stating they can't verify my license. Anyways, the tib method worked for me.

Help for noobeeee pleeeease.

I've read lots of posts on this, but I am not that experienced. So I am asking for easy to follow instructions.

Basically, my phone will not reset. I go thru the options, but when the phone reboots, nothing has changed.

There is one error msg when it goes thru the reboot:

Can't access to '/system/csc/ATT/system/

It as if it does not accept any changes. If I erase an app, reboot, the app is back again.

Any help is appreciated. Again, please do not send me to other threads that have instructions to root, reflash, etc....I need easy steps.

Also, I have a MAC. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
So you've read a lot of posts, and haven't grasped the meaning of them yet. Since I wrote some of the main guides, I don't know if my answers here will be any more understandable to you.

You will need to provide more information before I can tell what the problem is and make suggestions. What does the following mean? For instance, how exactly are you trying to reset the phone? What options are you referring to.

Also, what firmware is on the phone. Is it stock? Is it rooted?

This probably means that you are not rooted and are trying to remove protected files, or it may mean that you are rooted and trying to remove protected files while the file manager is in read only state.

both with the same results

Android: 2.3.6

Not sure if its stock. Doubt that it is rooted. How could I tell?

Thanks for the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Hold all three buttons, vol- vol+ and pwr until the splash screen appears the second time, then release the buttons. Phone will boot into recovery. It should say 3e recovery, which is the recovery that comes with the stock firmware. In recovery select the "wipe data/factory reset" option. The phone will reboot.

This wipe data/factory reset process basically removes all information from the /data partition, and returns it to factory default state. All user installed applications and personal settings will be gone, and the phone will be essentially like it was when new.

If you have gone through this exact procedure and not gotten this exact result, then there is something strange going on.

Please do the above exactly as described, and also confirm that the recovery you have says "3e recovery."
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
It says "Android system recovery <3e>"

I go thru all the steps, it says 'Data wipe complete', then I choose reboot....and the phone is exactly as it was before. No change.

Go to the Download Repository (see my signature) to find the various versions of stock. For stand alone Odin, you want a .tar file. You can also download the Odin3 v1.85 package from a link there.

How to use stand-alone Odin3 to flash firmware:

Follow and recheck each of the following steps. Do them in order listed, as some steps are dependent on previous steps. Instructions are for Odin3 v1.85. It should work with any version of Odin, but some details, like color of items, may be different.

1.) Open Odin on the Windows Desktop.

2.) Have the USB cable plugged into USB port on the computer, but *Not* plugged in to the phone.

3.) Shut the phone off.

4.) While holding down the vol+ & vol- keys, plug micro-usb plug into phone.

5.) In Odin, you should get the yellow box under where it says ID:COM with the text 0:[COMx], and in the Message area, <ID:0/00x> Added!! where x is some number, usually 1-8.

6.) In Odin, make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are checked and all other items are not checked.

7.) Click on the PDA button. Browse to the tar file you want to install and select it so its path appears in the text edit box next to the button.

8.) Make sure the check box next to the PDA button is checked.

9.) Click the Start button.

10.) You should see the green progress bar advancing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
Thanks. But before I start on this, I am working on a MAC! Will it work?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Oh. Sorry, I forgot you mentioned that. No this is for Windows PC.

You can most likely flash from a Mac using the Heimdall command line tool. It is not as straight forward. Can you get access to a PC to do this? That would be somewhat easier for you since the learning curve is not as steep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
ok, i'm on a pc. I have now downloaded i777_UCKH7_sbl.tar. Now what? I double click, and i get to a web site.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
No. You don't want the secondary boot loader.

Download from the "I777UCKH7-CL503881 Stock Binaries" section and choose the second item, "I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL tar.md5"

Flash that in Odin just as it is. You don't have to remove the md5 extension. This is 2.3.6, the same version you have on the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
ok now i have

I777UCKH7-REV02-home-low-CL503881.tar.md5.7z

now what? I'm on windows 8

double click does not know how to open it, removing '7z' also no luck
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You can download the 7z archiving program for free and use that to unzip the archive. http://www.7-zip.org/

ok now i have

I777UCKH7-REV02-home-low-CL503881.tar.md5 in a folder. Double click does nothing. What next?

Thanks for your patience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
You need to have the "Samsung usb driver for mobile phones" installed on the pc. I don't know windows 8, but if you find it listed in the place where you can uninstall programs then it is installed. If it is not installed, go to this page on the Samsung website and find the download at near the bottom of the page.

When the driver is installed, go back to the post where I gave the directions for flashing. In step 7, you select the .tar.md5 file just as it is to put into the pda slot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
This is your step 1:

1.) Open Odin on the Windows Desktop.

What is odin? the Samsung driver? There is nothing on the desktop for odin or the driver. I installed the driver. What do i start up?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
Well, I got Odin. Ran everything as described. Odin top right says "PASS". In bottom pane says ' all threads completed (succeed 1 / failed 0)

BUT THE PHONE IS EXACTLY AS IT WAS BEFORE!!!!!

What is happening?

This is not a help desk. You are not likely to get positive results by exhibiting an entitlement attitude. If you had started this thread a few months ago in these forums, you would most likely have been eaten alive. But recently, a lot of folks have moved on to other phones.

XDA developers forum is mainly for developers. People with knowledge and skills freely share. But it is generally expected that each one will read and study and learn on their own. You will find very few who are willing to hold your hand and personally guide you to the answers to your questions.

And now we learn that this whole thread was mostly pointless. All along, all you wanted to do was to remove your personal information which resides on the sd card. Performing wipe data/factory reset and flashing new firmware does not change anything on the sd card.

If you are trying to prepare the phone to sell, then all the information you need is in the guide "How to Prepare Your Phone to Return to the Store or for Warranty Replacement" which is a sticky post in the General forum. In that guide there are instructions how to format the sd card to remove all personal information.

Go read the guide. After you have studied, if there is something you do not understand, then ask. You will receive no more personal hand holding from me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] cupojojo:
First off, I apologize for doing the wrong thing here, of if I'm in the wrong place. I thought this was a place to get help. If it is not, please direct me elsewhere.

I have read and done everything in 'How to prepare your phone.....', the problem is, that even after all those steps, nothing on my phone has changed. All data, apps, etc, is still there. On top of it all, as far as I can tell, there is not even an SD card in my phone. That slot by the battery has nothing in it.

So I appreciate all the help so far, and any help you can still offer. If not, then please direct me to somewhere that can continue to help me with this. Thanks.
