[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Other than obvious physical damage, is there anything else I should check besides the bootloader status?

Is there any way to tell if the DRM keys are installed/working if the phone has been rooted and restored?:confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
I thibk there is no way to tell it has or has not the DRM keys working.

But be sure to check the moisture detectors under each flap. If they are even jist a little bit pink, refuse the phone, as it has been exposed to liquids.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
So, I need to pull out the plugs and look inside each (USB, headphones, SD, etc.) and check them for pinkness? I assume they are white normally.

I assume most International LTE models are booloader unlockable if they are not carrier devices. Is that true? (I'm buying for CM compatibility)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
Yes, they are white. They are little rectangles, paper like.

Here in Spain they only sell the LTE C6603 version. Most of them are carrier locked, and carrier locked devices, all of them, are locked.

Mine's also a LTE C6603, but I boight it from a Sony Store. My device is unlockable. I mean, it can be either unlockable or locked, no matter what version.

Plus, there is a known bug with rooted devices. A rooted device will show Bootloader unlockable: Yes. Even if the device is not unlockable.

So, first check if the device is rooted, if it is not, you will have a trustable read of the device's unlockability.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Other than looking for super su, is there a way to tell if the device is rooted?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
There is an app, root checker or root check I think.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
But I need that app installed to check it, right? There's no dialer method for root check, is there?

I also heard some rumors about wifi issues with the Z. Are they accurate?

I believe I have a chance to swap my S3 for an Xperia C6603. AS I understand the C6602 is not LTE, but the 03 is, correct?

The box on the photo the guy sent me says LTE, so this is why I asked. I'm meeting the guy later tonight to possibly swap, so I'm just trying to get my facts straight before I do so. I am more familiar with Samdung than Sony devices, but they aren't CM friendly.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
There is no other way to check for root if it's not with that app, maybe su command on a terminal, but for that you'll need a terminal emulator installed.

They say WIFI reception is lower compared to other devices. I only have other Sony devices to compare to, and notice no discernible difference in reception quality between Sony Walkman Z1060, Xperia S, Xperia T and the Z itself. I get higher download bandwith on the Z. 40Mbps on my 50Mbps line, compared to the 20ish the other devices have.

02 is non LTE, 03 is LTE, correct.

IMHO, CM is overrated. Too many bugs, subpar audio quality from the headphone out, subpar camera software (I think Sony is providing some sources of their camera drivers so it's a matter of time before they catch up), low battery life compared to stock.

Performance is probably beyond stock, but why would I wan't just performance, if the device don't live enough to take advantage of it. But every one has their own needs.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
I can install any generic 03 Sony ROM on the device, right? I'll test it out with stock ROM for a while, but I'd like to have the latest version available.

On Samdung devices, the region didn't matter, so I ask before I screw myself up. :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrKrFfXx:
Region doesn't matter. Any 03 will do fine.

I'd suggest stock based plus doom kernel.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fareeed:
There is :D open the service menu (dial *#*'#7378423#*#*), go to service tests, security. Look at the keys, MARLIN and WMLA, if it says Unknown Error, DRM keys are gone but if it says Key OK then DRM keys are intact :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bit1der:
I think you should check flaps condition also. They are easily damaged.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montrealguy:
I want to change from stock JW to JS. Is there a way to update without doing a full rom flash? I don't want to have to unlock and reinstall/restore all my apps again.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipusz:
Stay on JW for now. JS is kind of buggy. Deadlocks here and there.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montrealguy:
Wow really??? I've been reading that it is a release version. And that it contains more fixes than JW.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipusz:
JS is only present in AOSP for building. It might contain fixes, but at the same time, many users experienced deadlocks and other strange behavior. Only the JW-based ROMs are free of this. Moles roled back a couple of things on Paranoid Android to JW and now it's working without any hassle. The problem is that this deadlock issue cannot be pinpointed exactly, happens in various contexts. Also, you cannot use JW kernels with JS builds and vice versa. Long story short, I'd stay on JW until something happens on Google's side.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealiZms:
I'm running Cataclysm w/Franco kernel. This ROM is a flawless victory. I highly suggest it to anybody that wants useful customization along with a stock look and feel. Everything just works.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] montrealguy:
On JW or JS?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
You still require a wipe if you're going for cataclysm
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] I_Need_help:
Hi

I have an XDA2i and a leadtek BT GPS working together well, But Have only just got the XDA2i and want to use it for navigation and as a phone!

incoming call seem to work ok TTN5 mutes I talk on my Plantonics BT headset end call unmutes...

Making a call seem difficult while driving as there is no voice dialling running and searching contacts is difficult to see and operate!

How do others do this? Is there a dial that will display the contact list on double clicking the headset that uses a big font?

has anyone tried a headset with call display an directory browsing such as BT800#? if so do they work with the XDA2I

Any advice or help appreciated as at the moment I can't see me getting rid of my other phone!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] imatelvr:
i use Phoneplus. works great on my i-mate... http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=13354
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] I_Need_help:
Thanks, I will give it a go.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] masquerada:
I also use phoneplus3 but you can also create POI with phone numbers for all the important numbers like home, work and friends then you can call them directly from within TTN5 via the 'call number' button in main menu 3 of 3.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] I_Need_help:
Thanks, I have already added numbers to TTN5. I found and like pecaller, unfurtunatly it has a number of bugs like not remebering the groups etc.

So I'm using phonepluse but if they get the bugs fixed I would switch to pecaller and its free!

Thanks

You may try VITO Voice2Go for voice dialing or VITO QuickContact for finding contacts and calling with joystick (one-hand operation program, no stylus).

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ASharpEdge:
I know there has been a lot of discussion about this but I am gonna bring it up again....

Call recording on WiFi...I cannot get cellular here at my house most of the time so I must resort to using wifi. I had someone call me and threaten my life last week and I was not able to record the conversation..

I called the police and they arrested him and now I must say I am more scared of a payback than ever.

I MUST HAVE CALL RECORDING ON WIFI!!!!!!

I WILL PAY ANYONE WHO CAN DO IT OR TELL ME HOW TO DO IT!!! I am not rich though...I am disabled and have very little income...

PLEASE!!!! IT IS JUST ME AND MY NINE YEAR OLD GIRL...I AM SCARED TO DEATH ABOUT THIS THREAT. If this happens again I want to be able to record the bastard!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Do not worry about threats if you knew how many times it happened... its probably some people who have lot of time to waste
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
With all due respect, this advice is absolutely terrible.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I of course can't make any promises as I don't really use this feature so i havent spent much time working on anything with it in the past, but ill try to look at what's out there later tonight.

Which roms or recording apps have you tried this with?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Almost all out there don't work on WiFi calling as reports have gone across and not many devs seem to worry about it as they don't have the need for it or they don't even have T-Mobile so it's 100% not in their interest to spend time on it, totally understandable.

There is also the option of Google Voice maybe??
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
That's pretty much what I was thinking. Also that the best chance for finding one that works may be to try the apps from the store such as Total Recall and Call Recorder from ?svkalex?. There's a dev thread for his somewhere here on xda. It may help to pose this question on his thread if he doesn't already have it working

I wonder if any of the old ICS roms would be able to do this? They get forgotten easily, but had call recording enabled in some of those too.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
Well personally I try not to panic when it happens because before I got some serious threats several times and till today nothing happened to me but I can understand him...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Every situation is different, and in this case there is a child present. You don't take chances when you have a kid with you, period.

I understand where you may be coming from as well, but there is no minimizing it when a child could be in danger. Even if you're positive its just an evil prank, you don't take the chance of being wrong, because you only have to be wrong once....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] shahkam:
I completely missed the part where he mentioned his child ok now I totally do agree whit you I'd never risk a child life either..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
You don't know this is a male either, it may be a female dealing with a crazed male that is 300lbs.

What about ICS if she goes back to 4.0.4 did it work back then on WiFi calling?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I don't know. I just know several roms had call recording and it was easier to implement on ics. Figured it'd be worth a try at least.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Update: Tried several apps w/JB and no progress. I was trying to get an understanding why and I do have a theory. Basically, the call recorders all interface with the Qualcomm cellular radio to record from the uplink/downlink streams. On our S3's, wifi is handled by a separate Broadcom chip. So it would probably require either writing new code from scratch or a major rework of existing call recorders to work.

Like I said though, its just a theory, but it kind of makes sense I think. Its highly possible I could be completely wrong too.

There are still a few things ill try, but unfortunately, I'm starting to think it may be well beyond my ability to solve. I've got my daughter today so it may not be until later tonight before I can try much else. I will update when I have some more info though.

In the meantime, try calling T-Mobile customer care (ask for retentions if you've been with them for several years). Try first to just explain that you just have very weak signal and ask about their cellular signal booster (actual name escapes me atm). If it seems like you need to, explain your situation and why you are in need of it. (You could first try saying you are about to drop your broadband service, and won't have wifi calling available anymore. Also that you may be forced to look into switching carriers if this can't be solved. This is precisely what retentions is for). I'd avoid getting into explaining the need for call recording if possible, and if it seems you may have to but it wouldn't match what you've already said, you may want to call back and speak to a new rep first.

Some people have reported outstanding results with the signal booster, while others have said it didn't help a bit, so ymmv. But it is another option and T-Mobile has been known to provide these free of charge to some customers for home use only where they have weak coverage.

If you can get one of these and it does work for you, it would eliminate the need for wifi calling and you could use one of several recording solutions "as is".

Note: check T-Mobile 's coverage map and get an idea of what they claim their signal quality is for your home address before calling. And just use your best judgement for what you want to tell them. It could also turn out that if you tell them exactly what you told us, they'll be more willing to help you. I'm just not sure on this one. Maybe someone else can chime in with an opinion for you.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
I have heard you can get a range extender from your provider which is like a mini-cell tower if you're confirmed to be out of the service area. You'd contact your mobile provider and an have them go over the coverage map with you -- yada yada and they should help you in some way. ESPECIALLY if you threaten to leave them. Don't forget to try that if they give you a hard time.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
So true. I've read about 5-10 posts about people doing this.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bfranklin1986:
The one they sent me only picks up hspa signal and broadcasts it through the house, worthless if you live in an edge area like me
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
But for the situation being discussed in this thread, it could be priceless. All that's really needed is the cell signal for voice calls.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
[MENTION=4923706]ASharpEdge[/MENTION]

I hope everything has been going ok. Just wondering since we haven't heard from you since you opened the thread.

Anyway, an additional small update. I have tried several apps and a couple of roms with no luck. I'm downloading two ICS roms now so will try them tomorrow. They were both two of the best we've had on here in the past, FreeGS3 and FrostyICS. If I can't get it to work on these its going to end up requiring codework that's going to be beyond my ability I'm afraid.

The closest I've come was using Skvalex's Call Recorder. Using the Alsa Mixer as the recording method, it was able to attempt to record, but the file was just dead air. I think its still trying to record off the cell radio, not the wifi radio. All other settings failed to even start.

So I hope you don't mind, but I've posted in Skvalex's thread to ask him about this. I did include your story in hopes that it would have a better chance at sparking a reply, both for solutions and other options. If you do not want me doing this, ill edit it out right away.

Again, I hope all is well and that you and your little girl are staying safe!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ASharpEdge:
I really want to thank all of you for looking into this. I have been praying about it daily. My ex-wifes boyfriend is the one that started all of this. Went to pick up my daughter from her mom and boyfriends and he attacked me while my daughter was getting in the car...she was hysterical watching all of this...I handed my phone to her to call 911 and she couldnt..(to hysterical at the time) Then her mom took the phone from her and would not give it back. I finally was able to get out of the car and managed to grab the phone from my ex-wife and then me and my daughter ran to the street and called the police.

The police came and arrested the boyfriend for battery and my ex-wife for interfering with a 911 call.

Then a week later the boyfriends dad called me twice telling me to drop the charges on his son or he would cut my fu**ing balls off and kill me!

The father is a bit psycho from what my daughter told me and I know that he was in the military and has a wide selection of firearms at his house that is about 2 miles from me.....SO, I immediately called the police on him and they arrested him for verbal assault and interference with a state protected witness.

I am even more concerned about a payback, but I know I did the right thing by calling the police on him.

OK, now everyone knows the story...I am a disabled 45 year old father with a 9 year old daughter....She is scared as am I. I just wanted to have some peice of mind that if I got a call I would have proof besides the call log...

Please do not go out of your way though trying to get this working. I have the Lord Jesus on my side and I fell comfortable that we will be safe in regards to this matter.

To answer your question Doc...I have tried S3Rx 1.5, Dandroid, Wicked v10, and z999...Those I know for sure. I know some people say theirs worked but mine definately does not. The only true way to test it is to be out of range of a cell signal and then try it on wifi.

Again, thank you all and may God bless you and your loved ones!! :angel:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Wow....That is a hell of a situation. I am sorry you and your daughter are having to go through all of that. My daughter is 7 and I could only try to imagine what I would be going through if all of that were happening to me. Some people are just really screwed up in the head and, IMO, have no business being in a position of influence over any child. I just hope you are able to get some sort of restraining order and full custody if you dont already have it. Personally, though, I honestly would be arming myself. All too often, the only way to actually Stop a bad guy with a gun, is for a good guy with a gun to intervene.

Anyway, a bit more on topic. My daughter had her meet and greet with her new teacher today so I was gone most all day long. Im making a new nandroid backup now, and will try to test a couple more things out in the next hour or two.

And it really is not a big deal. If I can help find a way to do this, then I just hope it can help give you guys even just a little piece of mind. (No, I am not doing this in response to your thread title btw. I'd rather you spend your money on your daughter, especially if you can get her something or do something for her that can help her get through all of this.)

Oh and consider calling T-Mobile as I mentioned before. It could be a better solution than this and its probably best to try talking to them sooner than later.

Hang in there man! We will keep you guys in our prayers.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Ok, sorry I didnt post yesterday, but I really had nothing new to add unfortunately. I have tried several roms, apps, mods with no luck on this at all.

I am pretty sure it would require someone to modify the code for WiFi Calling to allow recording. And then it would have to also have to be modded to integrate call recording as I don't think this would allow any 3rd party apps to work anyway.

I have sent Skvalex, the developer of Call Recorder on the Play Store an email. I was told he was away and not able to respond in the thread, but he should still be able to receive and reply to his emails about the app. At this point, I am just waiting to see if he has any ideas or if he thinks he might be able to add the functionality to his app. Other than that, I am just not sure of what else I can do right now. Though if I think of anything, I will certainly let you know. And of course, I will post again once I hear back from Skvalex.

I do hope your situation has improved over the last couple of days. I am really sorry I was not able to come up with anything for you. But if there is anything else I can help with, do let me know.

Take care!

Anyone else have any ideas on this issue???

Found an ap that works with wifi

Try the call recorder ap by developer: Global Effect. They give you a two week trial before you buy for $5.48.
