[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] ja981pda:
Hi there, I'm new to this forum so forgive me if I'm not doing things quite right. I've recently purchased a new MDA III and am unable to install Jave programs (.jar) as the Midlet manager is not installed (eventhough it should be according to the manual!!)

T-Mobile have eventually realised that the Midlet manager is not included when it should and have asked me to run SETUP-MidletManagerAppSuite-1.0.0.4-MDAIII-ENG-14Jan05.exe which they sent me in an email. I've run this but it fails with message “Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again”.

T-Mobile then asked me to download latest ROM update from http://www.t-mobile.de/blackberry_solution/support/english (there is an update for an MDA III eventhough it says BlackBerry). I ran upgrade MDA3_TMUK_v106160_SHIP0307.exe which upgraded me to:

CE Image (1.06.00)

Extended CE Image (1.06.160)

Radio Image (1.00.00)

Ps. this was the previous version I had before the upgrade but I thought I'd run it anyway.

I then tried to re-run MIDlet manager installation program but it failed with the same error.

Is anybody out there able to suggest anything please? T-Mobile's answer was that I have to wait for HTC the manufacturer of MDA's to release a new ROM update.

Many thanks in advance,

Regards,

John

Hey!

I want to try out Botbrew (botbrew.com/) but its not working on my device. I installed the opkg-version via apk as well as the experimental botbew basil-version via fdroid (i coulnt find an apk-package on the net of this). The installation went fine.

Problem: There is neither a command "opkg" nor "apt-get" nor "botbrew" nor "botbrew2" available. Manpages are missing as well.

Referring to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1446541

The commands should be available. So where did i make the wrong turn?

Many thanks in advance
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonRebornedx:
Hi there.

I own my stock Galaxy S4 i9505 for 2 months now, and since a week or 2 it started to act strange.

The phone turned always around 20% battery off, and started to freeze sometimes in normal use.

I did today a factory reset, since then it turns off around 63% battery.

Ill try to charge it for 100% and let it charge for some more hours, and do another factory reset then, but i doubt its a battery calibration problem.

Do you guys have any tip that could help me, or should i just return it to seller?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameracartwright:
Don't know if this will work but factory reset the phone then use until battery dies then charge whilst off untill 100% may be battery calibration issue.

Let me know how u get on mate
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
It's definitely not a calibration issue as that has no correlation to battery life. Thee OP is facing a hardware issue- either a defective battery or PMIC.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cameracartwright:
Ok
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thzone:
similar problem

I'm facing similar problems. sometimes it last for a day and dies at 10% but sometimes it dies after a few hours with still 30 to 40 % battery left. After the phone switches off automaticaly i'm not able to restart unless i plug him in.

I tried a lot of things like flashing custom roms, factory reset, flash stock rom with odin with factory reset afterwards.

All with no luck.

It all started after flashing I9505XXUBMGA-PRE-ROOTED

Currently i'm on an older version suited for my region but the problem is still there.

I'm considering to buy a new battery. Can anybode help me please?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SunSide:
You are not alone.Many people report that problem with the original battery.Have a look at your battery if it is/gets fatter.

Buy a new one or go to the shop where you bought the phone,maybe they give you a new one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Hey Guys I just got this phone recently. 2-3 wks ago. My problem is I get very poor signal. Mainly in my Neighborhood and in my house. Now I am wondering if I have a faulty device. The nexus is known to have very poor signal but it had better signal than this phone. I drop calls all the time (Mainly in my neighborhood)I do get texts just fine. I am on the latest VZW Modem/Baseband. Should I Odin back to stock to see if it improves? At my job I still get 0-1 bars but I do NOT drop calls. Should I ODIN back to stock using mobile Odin without the data wipe and ever-root to see if it improves? I do not remember what signal was like on stock and i pretty much put it on AOSP a few hours later.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
I just realized I can go stand outside and get 7.5 mb on 4G but my dBm is 106. In my bed room it toggles between -112 dBm and 0 dBm 99 asu. Is that odd?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
96 views and no replies? At least let me know of going to stock would be a good idea?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I live in a similarly low signal area as well, my dBm hovers around -105 to -117 given the day. I don't frequently drop calls but mobile data is slow. Maybe Odin flashing a stock tar will help, maybe it won't. I don't expect much better results for you to be blunt.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
I appreciate the response. I'm going to Odin back today just to see. I wonder why I drop calls so much. I think I only drop calls in my neighborhood so I don't think it's the device so much. At Least I Hope Not
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I know the feeling. I don't typically hold long phone calls at home so the dropped calls don't occur too often. I'm fairly certain if I made calls every day, I'd see dropped calls 3/7 days with the same dbm each day. Mobile data strength doesn't bother me since I have wifi at home. When I'm out and about, my signal is fantastic so its a tradeoff I accept.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MPDnnrd:
Poor Signal

I have a VZW Galaxy Nexus and have had signal problems the last couple of months and recently reverted to stock and the signal did not improve. I have signal problems in several places and have read others say it is the network and some say Samsung devices do not work well on Verizon. Of course with my issue the signal is between 0 and 1 bar toggling between LTE and 3G so my battery drains quickly within a few hours. Calls to Verizon end up turning into a sales pitch to buy a new phone. I am probably going to have to switch to another provider if I can find one that works.

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:08 PM ----------

Something else to try is see if there are other radios for your model and flash them and see if one works better than another. I have seen that advise given on some of the other threads.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
I will have to try different radios. However do notice i have a GS3. I was just pointing out the fact that signal worst than my old nexus. I'm on VRBMB1 and signal is better. Going to update my baseband now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
I didn't realize that mobile Odin erased internal SD and so i lost everything :( Luckily I baked up my titanium backups to Box.com 5 days ago but I still lost 5 days of texts and my pictures
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That's tough, the pics matter more than texts in my opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thefatalepic:
I'd like to add that I never had signal issues with my VZW Galaxy Nexus, and I get complaints now of the people on the other end of the call with the S3. They keep telling me they can't hear me right or that it sounds muffled or garbled. I get my second S3 replacement today so hopefully it helps.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] iceblade997:
So, I've been wanting to get a second (and third) battery for my Note II when it arrives. Which of the two are better, though? A lot of people seem to support Anker but it looks like Hyperion are good as well, and seemingly cheaper.

Any advice would be very much appreciated, and thanks :)

http://www.amazon.com/Batteries-GT-...8&qid=1377449993&sr=8-1&keywords=anker+note+2

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Comp...id=1377450310&sr=8-4&keywords=hyperion+note+2

These are the batteries I'm talking about.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] apallohadas:
I keep a set of the Anker's that you listed there, in my emergency bag. I based the purchase off their reputation and Vectron's review.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Both are reliable brands, cost the same (Anker w/free shipping, Hyperion with $5 shipping) and I have a feeling they get their batteries from the same source (neither of them manufacturer their own stuff). But I can say with certainty you will get a much better support from Anker and also 18 months extended warranty. Also, I'm not quite sure why Hyperion says "now with NFC" when these are standard slim batteries to use with Note 2 original battery cover that has NFC antenna built-in (no need for anything built into a battery).
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] iceblade997:
Thanks! :D.

Thanks as well! Yeah, it's the S3 that has the NFC chip built into the battery, isn't it?

I'd like to ask also - how is the Anker wall charger? Like, how long does it take to charge from the wall?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Their wall charger is 600mA which is probably the highest you can get in that type of charger. At least I haven't seen any wall battery chargers or universal wall battery chargers at 1A or higher.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] iceblade997:
Gah. So it sounds like you pretty much have to charge it overnight, then? Or save time and charge it in the phone?

Also I'd like to ask one other question of you - do the Seidio Vitreo screen protector and Otterbox Commuter go well together? Any problems with fitting, etc?
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SWFlyerUK:
I completely concur with points 2, 3, 4 & 5. I watch a lot of movies on this tablet, but as you say, despite airplane mode and the Mobile Bravia Engine turned off, the battery drain is absolutely phenomenal. My device is constantly on charge - it takes a good 6 hours, if not more to charge the tablet to 100%, watch a movie or two, or a long YouTube video and it's time to recharge again!

I rooted my tab - in the build.prop I changed the WiFi refresh interval to like 10 minutes, but even that doesn't stop the constant drain!

Point No.5, I can understand your concern here - so far, I've used my tablet vigorously in water. Several times in the bath and once in the shower. All times where successful with the covers tightly closed. Leading on from that, I know this is likely to be un-avoidable, but it seems a bit of a waste having a 'water-resistant' device that responds to water 'touches' on the screen. It makes watching a film a nightmare. I did however install the beta touch block from the ZR, but whenever the screen is touched (constantly in the water) a large label appears in the center of the screen with a slide bar to deactivate it - plus, the screen turns a slightly transparent black (on purpose) meaning it's useless got even a film.

It's a good stab by Sony, let down completely by the software. I've had it since release. so refund is not an option. If it was, I would - on eBay they're only going for half the price I paid so I'm really stuck with it... No 4.2.2 for the WiFi either!
[Xperia Tablet Z General] zach181:
I'm not in agreement with some of your points but in others I do agree. I contacted Sony today as last night this Tablet failed badly IMO. I had the fun job of rebuilding my main server. So I plugged in the tablet to the mains and set up a load of TV to stream from my NAS. A few hours into the job.....silence!! At first I thought I'd left on some power save setting, but no. Despite being plugged in and having about 70% of charge in the battery to start with it drained it totally and the tablet shut down. I don't think it's asking too much to expect it to keep running when plugged into the mains.

I've either got a faulty one or they have a serious design fault.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] dirtyjeff:
Sorry to hear you didn't like it but clearly everyone has their own preferences etc. Personally I love the XZ Tablet. I seem to get better battery life than you do, though I've had mine longer so maybe the battery has "settled in" - if they do that I don't know.

The charging times are quite bad I agree but it isn't an issue for me. It has plenty of juice to get through two days for me and I just charge it overnight.

I haven't experienced the lag like you mentioned. I did have it freeze up for about 5 seconds last night but that was the first "issue" I've had. I find the tablet extremely quick and responsive. There is the odd Android lag now and again but nothing that bothers me at all.

Good luck with your next tablet. Maybe wait for the next Nexus 10. That should be a beast.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] CandyAndy:
I am really surprised to see how many people complain about the battery life of this device. Usually I feel that its me who have bad battery on every device while other people praise how good it is.

I just 2 weeks ago flew from Helsinki to Hong Kong and during the flight I watched about half season of game of thrones in HD and played some games. I still had about 25% left after that. I would say its pretty good result after 11 hour flight.

I do have wifi only version, I dont know if it makes any difference.

Screen I think its beautiful. I also had Note 2 but those colors are actually a bit too over-saturated for my taste and I don't like it so much. Of course blacks are much better on the Amoled screen and yes this tablet does have some light bleed on the screen and yes if I start paying attention to it, it is really annoying.

Charging time I can't complain much since I put it charge when I go to sleep and when I wake its back to full and will easily last whole day. I did however have to buy the charging dock because I started to feel that if I take the flap out every day it will eventually wear off (I actually already once managed to get the pin somehow badly and the flap couldn't close properly after that. Thankfully I was able to push it back straight)

After coming from Asus Transformer Infinity I have been so happy with this tablet. I think it is the best 10 inch tablet currently. Yes, better than Nexus 10. Probably the new Nexus 7 have somethings which I do envy and maaaaybe I will get that one also.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] xatlx:
I am sorry to hear that you are experienced this with the device. however i felt directly opposite of most or not all of your complaint.

i still enjoy my tablet like day one :D
[Xperia Tablet Z General] GretaLewd:
+1 to this ^

I was fed up with using a laptop on my lap, so I decided to get a tablet.

I initially went to buy an iPad. Picked up the iPad, picked up the Xperia - no contest. Bought the Xperia. Makes the iPad feel like a brick.:laugh:

To me, the Xperia is what a tablet should be - so light, so slim, lovely display.

Charging is a bit slow but I use my son's iPad charger and that makes it quicker. I'm just loving the Xperia.:)
[Xperia Tablet Z General] zach181:
So you're saying that you watched 5 hrs of HD video then played some games for ..... period of time and had 25% of battery left?

Enlighten me Andy as to how.... Screen brightness, volume, Video Player etc etc? I've never got nowhere near that on batteries so I'm trying to establish if it's either the software I use or I just got a bad tablet.

EDIT: My tablet is the 16GB WiFi Also.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] CandyAndy:
auto screen brightness, stock video player. And I think its quite normal get about this. I do travel a lot and usually I have some movies on the tablet and usually during long flights (always Europe to Asia and back flights) I watch at least 3 movies and battery is always fine. I don't play 3D games almost at all but for example World of Goo I can play a lot. And I never used stamina mode or low battery mode.

When going to airplane mode I think that this lasts very well. web browsing uses quite a lot battery.

But I overall I am really happy of the battery lasting. Compared to my current mobile phone HTC One which just dies if I play a bit candy crush.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] zach181:
Ok thanks... I'll test some more as I do really like the tablet but if it's not fit for my purpose it will have to go. I can't use the stock player though as I'm partially deaf and no subs on that. Not to worry, I'll put my ear trumpet in and give it a go with that :laugh:
[Xperia Tablet Z General] CandyAndy:
Actually now when you mention it I didn't use stock because english is not my native language and its easier for me to follow when I can read the subtitles if some words hard to make out. I used MX Player, it supports subs.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] zach181:
Yeah I use MX, Dice or Archos. All do subs. If you like eye candy in a player, try the Archos one ;)

Well it's charged to 100% so I'll give it another try. And Sony might even reply to my email but I'll not hold my breath on them getting back to me.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] Ryland Johnson:
Battery life on all such devices is not going to be amazing. There simply has to be a pay off between performance and what the battery can offer.

This is an ultra thin, light tablet with a full HD screen and quad core CPU! WE wanted these parameters now we have them all I see people do who own all the top level devices is moan about the battery life! Same with the mobiles. Until battery manufacturers develop higher performance batteries this is what we simply have to accept. Failing that purchase a low cost low specification tablet or phone then one can reasonably expect a higher usage period.

To the OP. I respect your opinion. One does have to ponder though given your negative feedback, how this tablet managed to win the EISA award 2013-14 for best tablet? I also ponder what exactly you are looking for in a tablet? Can you name a more accomplished Android tablet at present?

All and every tablet, mobile phone, TV, electronic device, will have its positives and negatives. Its finding the balance of what we can live with and accepting some compromises.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] chriskwarren:
I have owned the Asus TF 101, TF 201, Infinity, Toshiba Thrive, Acer a500, and a700.

This Xperia tablet is the best so far. The responsiveness is the best out of all of them. Battery life is not the best but is competitive (the Acer a500 and a700 had the best battery life, with the Sony being competitive with the Asus tablets I had...I never used the keyboard docks for the Transformers though).

The Sony is the slowest charging tablet I have owned though. I have used the Samsung S4 and a 2a Blackberry charger that seems to have sped up the charging so I think the charger Sony included is part of the problem. I have not done any tests to measure the differences in charging, but it certainly is faster using a 3rd party charger.

Agreed with the water resistance; I don't trust the little tabs either, but the water resistance is only a minor feature for me. I was just sick of the poor performance and responsiveness that these other tablets had. I am very picky and while this tablet is not perfect (no tablet is), I can live with this one and I think the grass is always greener.
[Xperia Tablet Z General] HyperionX10:
I was actually wondering about the time it takes for the tablet to charge: could the culprit be the charger ? I also have an Xperia ZL and the chargers are identical: same type, same output, etc.

Maybe Sony didn't bother to release a charger with a higher output for Tablet Z?
[Xperia Tablet Z General] SrAdama:
I forgot to mention that.. yes, that really sucks.

Thanks! Not sure which one to get now, want one that is fully waterproof and works normally in water. Otherwise there's no point in getting a tablet for me, my Note 2 will do fine.

Yes, the colors can be over-saturated on the Note 2. But the amazing thing with that device is that you can select 4 different screen modes to fit your personal preference. That's a feature that was missing on the XZT for me, I just wanted the choice to be able to have more vivid colors.

iPad. High resolution screen, high-performance, thin and has what feels like double the battery life compared to the XZT. Sucks that it has iOS though.. like you say, there has to be a pay off. :laugh: The only reason why I won't buy an iPad.

Probably won because of its slim design, "water resistant" feature and weight? Those are the only things that sets it apart from most other tablets. And in my opinion the most important thing was the water resistance which to me doesn't seem so reliable with this device.

What I want in a tablet is for it to be fully waterproof with no unreliable tabs that could let water through.. no 30 min max. submerged in water up to 1 meter down BS. I want it to function normally when water touches the screen. I want it to have a beautiful screen, which the XZT doesn't have in my opinion. I want it to be fast, have a long battery life and short charging time. If I can't have the waterproof feature, then there's no point for me to buy a tablet.

Can I name a better Android tablet? Since the water resistant feature on the XZT is useless, yes.. Any of the best offerings from other brands that doesn't have a screen with dull colors. I'd rather take one of those than the XZT if I had to choose a tablet.
