[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] babazii:
basically i want reboot option, but how?? please tell me i am new on xperia s, is this works on Stock firmware(rooted)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mr.AnakinSkywalker:
This is useless without transparent statusbar
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Aditya Srinidhi:
Hey could you please upload the widget you have on your Home screen and a small bug btw - in call volume reduces by a step if I change to vibration. Great mod, thanks ^^
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jjpforu:
Making statusbar transparent is very simple, but i personally dont like .. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jjpforu:
I think u are talking abt power toggle widget. Get that from google play thats free.

Also press thanks if you like my work.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] paco8784:
Really nice mod!

I have a question about transitions... Before I install this, I was using a transitions mod... but lost it with this...can I insrall em again? or may it cause some conflicts??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Aditya Srinidhi:
Yes I got it, pressed thanks, thank you for reply :)

Just one more thing, I tried to find call recording but unable to find it? Everything else is excellent, thanks for sharing :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Nidhal AKA the king:
thanks!

the sound quality is AWESOME! and way better than many other 3rd party apps.. it's also .mp3 codec!

well, i just threw the ''com.android.phone-res'' in sys/vendor/overlay, gave permission and reboot!

i've noted that there is other overlay folder in root directory!

should i throw in both folders location?

thx!
[Moto X Q&A] Evo_Shift:
Can you add whatever app you want? Let's say I use handcent. Can I set the active notification to handcent instead of the stock app?

In other words, can you set any app to use the active notification or does each app developer have to support it?
[Moto X Q&A] ShamanicEnzan:
As long as it makes notifications you can make it an active notifications and you can remove the stock app as you wish.
[Moto X Q&A] Superpopsss:
Whatsapp works ?
[Moto X Q&A] _MetalHead_:
Any app that has notifications works.
[Moto X Q&A] rmead01:
Can you turn off the haptic feedback?
[Moto X Q&A] _MetalHead_:
Not in the active notifications, unfortunately. Been nagging Moto about it, hopefully they'll give us the option in a future update.

Edit: You're screwing with me, aren't ya? Not cool haha
[Moto X Q&A] rmead01:
haha I see you posted the exact same thing in another thread. I blame it on football and having welker on my bench with the ravens def in.
[Moto X Q&A] ShamanicEnzan:
I had Peyton on the bench...

Also I don't ever notice the active notification vibration...is it only when your phone is on silent/vibrate?
[Moto X Q&A] rmead01:
nope, it's all the time. It when you touch the lock and use it to unlock/view/ignore. It's the haptic feedback.
[Moto X Q&A] _MetalHead_:
Yep and it's ridiculously annoying. I just went to the AT&T store to see if their display model is as loud as mine and it is, along with the 3 other phones they let me look at. That kinda sets my mind at ease knowing my phone isn't defective- I was seriously considering exchanging it based on the vibration alone. But now I'm keeping it, and I'm happy.
[Moto X Q&A] ShamanicEnzan:
Oh okay, I don't mind that.
[Moto X Q&A] ShanMan14:
Mostly out of habit, I've been hitting the power button to get the regular unlock screen which doesn't vibrate with haptic disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NillKill:
Hey guys,

Need some help. I'm running CM 10.2 (4.3) on my VZW Samsung Galaxy Nexus and everytime I try to send 1 message to someone, it sends multiple. Sometimes, 10. Sometimes, 30. Sometimes, even 60. Does anyone know what I should do? It's getting really frustrating when my friends complain about all the messages.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgnex:
Maybe there is something wrong with your radio. Try to flash the latest.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tataykokalbo:
when i went home a while ago i charged my phone because of the low battery. and after like 10minutes of charging my phone is really really hot.

51 degrees Celsius as i remembered. until now i don't know what's the problem. my phone overheats when i turn it on and also while charging.

help me guys i don't know what's happening on my phone :\

Sorry for my english. (my 3rd language)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
There is a app that is causing the problem, you need to find it and delete it
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] electrash:
Overheat during charging is normal, Also overheat can come if you use lot of procesor power ie intensive 3D games (subway surfer,minions rush, and we will not talk about asphalt, dungeon hunter etc) small games but is very intensive on impact of proc.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
Well it seems i only have this problem when im on a OC kernel, no heat when charging, and some when gaming

Weird, do you get ths?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] electrash:
Well that depends how your proc is set.

Noop, deadline, on demand.. They all act dif.

Your max mhz maybe is 1.7 or even more, but current maybe a way lower then on stock kernel because of difrent mods and handling.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] luptatorul:
Possible way of resolving the problem

Hey mate! I've seen this problem before, and mostly it's because you installed a rom wrong. Try installing the rom again via cwm or twrp, and do an absolute FULL WIPE... format the system, data, cache, delete cache, delete dalvik cache etc and make sure you install the rom properly, that way you shouldn't have this problem anymore :) hope it works! Come back with feedback
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
it may be device specific

i have 2 Xperia S, and One Heats up when charging, my other doesnt,

-XS 01 no heating issues at all (max 1836MHz Clock)

-XS 02 Charging heat, Heat issue even when not overclocked, youtube Heating issues, (weird), Max 1728MHz Clock

Other info

Both Devices Use SAME ROM And kernel,Both Devices Were purchased from same place,

XS 01 is Older then XS 02, by 4 months
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tOrNadO™:
Try reducing Max frequency using Kernel Tuner.. And use different governors.. Like Ondemand for CPU0 and Conservative for CPU1.. This combination has made my phone stay cooler enough even after half hour of gaming.. Even with Asphalt8 and NFSMW.. And lower your Max Freq to 1.4 or 1.2.. 1.3 will be same as 1.5.. I mean in terms of heating.. :p

Hello,

my xperia s has been playing up or is about to die on me. My batterys is fine once charged to 100 etc last a decent time and everything but as soon as the batterys is dead and im out, ill come back and charge the phone only to find no red charging light no screen light or anything. I have managed to get it charging some how by leaving in on the wall charger for about one hour or two then i find itl turn on and charge normaly. This is happening more and more now, i dead when my phones dies its taking the mik to charge from a dead battery!!

Does anyone know whats happening... im using the latest jb stock rom .... i've even used cyangenmod which was fine for ages then my phone kept on restarting and it dead... same problem wouldnt turn on.. so thats how i've now got the stock rom. fully restored no restarting of the phone but it takes like three hours to charge if completly dead!! help anyone?!!?!?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
wipe absolutely everything (including internal storage) and flash an ftf and start over
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] electrash:
It need sometime to charge battery. It will not turn on imidatly.

Leave it on chargher for some time and it will be god.

This happens to me all the time, no panic anymore. :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elitestatus:
Everything has been wiped except storage because i dont see why that would matter? to the other guy thanks but my phone will litterly take 6 hour to even START charging.. there must be something wrong with it, my nexus charges straight away from the wall plug
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ben36:
have you tried different chargers?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elitestatus:

Xperia SP and S roms

Hey mate! I've seen this problem before, and mostly it's because you installed a rom wrong. Try installing the rom again via cwm or twrp, and do an absolute FULL WIPE... format the system, data, cache, delete cache, delete dalvik cache etc and make sure you install the rom properly, that way you shouldn't have this problem anymore :) hope it works! - if you are not using roms, the reinstall and original firmware via flashtool, that might solve your problem... After that, you can try to charge your phone to 100% then drain it to 0% and charge it again, see what it does. Come back with feedback!

---------- Post added at 07:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:06 AM ----------

I remember having the same problem, and the reason was that i was using a wrong kernel or something. The kernel can be a badass on battery drain, you might want to check that out too :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elitestatus:
I dont think its that because i was using cyangenmod 9 for ages without problem then like 7 months later boom, phone kept on restarting and when it dead it wouldnt charge. so as i said i relocked my phone and put the laitest stock rom on it and the problem charging still occurs
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamingDj:
Hi! I've left CM/AOKP based ROMs 3 months ago.A lot happened since...for example,CM 10.2 (Android 4.3 ) has been released.

I left CM because of the well known Mali bug,which caused 3D games like NFS:Most Wanted to freeze.I'm a heavy gamer on PC and Android,too.I plan to go back to CM ROMs.

But first I have to know if this Mali bug is fixed or not.I know Carbon ROM didn't have this bug,but I don't want to use Carbon ROM.Any helpful answer will be thanked.

[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
Just bought the Xperia a few days ago and been playing around with it ever since. by end of the Day One, I find the overly whitish brightness increasingly annoying. and the more I compare them with the display in other phones, the more I find it unbelievable that Sony would be incapable of incorporating a better display into this phone. In fact, after having personal first-hand user experience with the phone, and making repeated visit to the Sony Centre with its full range of Xperia smartphones on display, and comparing the SP with the displays on other models, I found that Sony phones general has that whitish overexposed element which are not present in smartphones from other brands, HTC, Samsung. Heck, even a ACER and LENOVO phones has better display in term of its viewing angles and in showing white colour. Displaying black is acceptable but the moment there is any bright colour, all hell break loose with the display, with pictures and graphics looking like they have been photoshopped and tweaked to the maximum brightness. I find this totally unacceptable and I am putting the phone on garage sale forum already, which is rather unfortunate, because other than the display, I am very fond of the phone's design, material and the general simplicity of Xperia interface.

It is a complete mystery why nobody and none of the reviews make a bigger issue about gross inadequacy. it is utterly terrible. I am sure I am not the one only here who noticed this. can any members here share your views on this ?
[Xperia SP General] ZakooZ:
Lol... I've had many android devices and I always prefer the whites on the Sony devices because they're the ones that actually look whiter while other devices have whites that are way too warm and ruin many pictures... Don't understand your complaint...

Adjust your white balance on the settings
[Xperia SP General] Deathless93:
I also compared the display with other smartphones. Its like u said. Even the HTC Desire Z, which is more then 3 years old, got a much better display.

This was my first sony smartphone and for sure, the last. Its not only the display. I noticed many more things, which should be better.

Sony failed!
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
you have no idea what I am talking about. the white balance is already at its lowest possible setting. adjusting anymore will only change the tint effect and not the brightness. it is not just whiter. it looks OVER-EXPOSED. do you even know what an overexposed pictures taken by a camera look like ?

when a colour that is supposed to look red started to look like pink from certain angle, it is just pure, unaduterated, lame display.
[Xperia SP General] Sadman Khan:
In that case, get yourself an Xperia Z1 or Z Ultra..they have amazing displays with

good viewing angles thanks to the Triluminous Display and X-Reality
[Xperia SP General] Onecton:
I have the same problem, not that the phone looks over exposed ..

but the screen is compared to the xperia ray of my gf rubbish....

i'm confused.

But seeing that my SP also has a bad issue of a dodgy touchscreen, and random severe input lags, my guess is that i got a "lemon" phone :(

again im not thrashing any SP's out there, just guessing that i got one faulty device of the bunch thats out there :eek:
[Xperia SP General] Pete_S:
The screen hasn't got the best viewing angles, I agree. I also find the gamma curve is biased towards showing a lot of definition in darker tones, which leads to the impression of reduced contrast - ie: dark tones don't look dark enough until they're near to black.

Those criticims aside I find the screen very good quality. I'm glad I don't have to live with Samsung's "technicolor" OLED screen where everything's pumped up.

Also, turn off BE2 if you want natural colurs and contrast.
[Xperia SP General] dara007_168:
Try Nokia 1280 bro best display of all smartphones in 2013 even better than s4
[Xperia SP General] Onecton:
Capt'n Sarcasm to the Rescue ;):D
[Xperia SP General] technaudio:
Perhaps next time, make your comparisons before purchasing your phone.

Secondly, all this talk of viewing angles, now, forgive me for being a little simplistic here, but, as a general rule, I, and probably many others, tend to hold my phone pretty much parallel to my eyes, why anyone would want to look at their phone at any angle other than say 30 odd degrees to this is completely beyond me!???
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
After reading the replies, I noticed the difference in quality is there but apparently, some people doesn't find that it is a big issue, which is a complete mystery to me. one good example is this kind of comment, which make absolutely no sense in how one justify and defending an obvious fundamental flaw. "as a general rule", people nowadays do put their phones on the tables and turn their sight to somewhere else and then glance at its side from the sight. the same goes for the tablets. maybe, you hold and look at your phone right in front of you day and night, but if you don;t know single person who doesn't do that all the time and expect to be able to see the same colour and contrast when you are viewing your phone when they are lying on the table, then the problem lies with you. seriously, even if you hold the phone directly in front of the eyes, the ****ty quality of the display is so significant, it just boggle my mind why so many people wanna defend the indefensible ? the inferiority in comparision to the display in other phones are clear and present, why would you or anyone allow a phonemaker to give you a display that has brightness that give you a completely washed-out effect, when the display on even a China no-name brand doesnt ? just because you grew up with a Sony Ericsson phone and has a soft spot for it ?
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
that is not an option. i chose Xperia SP because of the size, which is just right for mobility and convenience sake. Xperia Z1 is too big and Z Ultra is just ridiculous. it is a mini tablet, not a phone. and since you brought this up, this is what irks me the most. these two upper-end models are the one only with a display that has the natural brightness and colour seen in phone from Samsung Galaxy, HTC etc but their screen display are consistent across the entire range from budget to upper-end. mind you, this "Triluminous Display and X-Reality" doesn't really offer anything new or fancy, it is just a fancy term of Sony to integrate something into its phone display to make them look comparable to phones from other brands, something they should have included in its range of phones to begin with. I highly suspect that Sony deliberately skim on the quality of the display for this Xperia SP in exchange of giving you a mid-ranged 4G LTE phone with Adreno 320.
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
no one should apologise for thrashing Xperia SP. dont even get me started on the insensitive touchscreen AND the totally unbelievably weak WIFI reception. I am talking about a wifi connection that I have been using for years in my house, and is being used and detected now by other Samsung, Iphones, tablets, notebooks in the house now. nine out of ten times, the Xperia SP is unable to detect, latch on and then subsequently connect to the WIFI signal after I went outside and returned home. this has never happen to any of the devices we used in the house before, except when the device is faulty to begin with.
[Xperia SP General] Sadman Khan:
All i meant to say was that, if you stick to Sony, then right now only these two offer the good displays with good viewing angles..besides the honami mini will also be released and that just might be the perfect phone for you. SP has great hardware and software and really at this price range, a phone cannot get any better . It's a high end phone with mid range price. I personally prefer phones with viewing angles like SP because it's more private. Or else people can read anything or see anything from anywhere -_- again, that's just my opinion. My idea is to switch to a Z1 mini when it comes out. The quality of the display is something i need, and viewing angles is just a plus point to me. I really don't care much if the viewing angles are good or bad as i do always use my phone at parallel eye level

And trust me, i know the difference in display as i myself come from an Htc One X which has awesome viewing angles :P but sadly this phone has far better battery, speed and gaming performance than One X
[Xperia SP General] technaudio:
I think the display is fine myself. Samsung displays, in. My opinion, are bloody awful, yes, you might be able to see it from pretty much perpendicular to your eyes, but the dreadfully oversaturated colours are terrible. Add to that the phone isn't that good looking (again, my opinion) and the people I know that have got one have both complained about poor build quality (chrome bezel peeling off) and rubbish battery life, and Samsung STILL insist on putting the back and multitask button s the wrong way round!
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
incidentally, I happen to remember looking closely at the Xperia Z in the Sony Centre and still remember its display screen as having a certain whitish element not present in other phone. and its comparatively inferior constrast ratio is more or less corroborated by some reviews, including this one http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_z-review-887.php

I guess I will stay away from Sony Xperia phones until they completely overhauled its display technology. It is a pity, as I generally prefer the the simple elegance of Sony Xperia's phone design.
[Xperia SP General] lee480:
Welcome to the new age. Welcome to Xperia Z1.
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
I will accept it once I have seen it. as far as I am concerned, it is the dark ages if Sony only use its upgraded display tech on its high-end phones and skim on them on its mid to low-range phones. if Samsung and HTC can do it with across its range of phones, there is absolutely no reason for Sony to be unable to do it.
[Xperia SP General] jasonwsc:
I don't have any problem with my phone. .245 update solved the random touch bug and wifi for me, and I think the screen is pretty good, although kind of reflective.

You might want to have your phone checked. My display is made by JDC.

I have Samsung phones, so I know what amoled looks like. LCD displays are sharper, but amoleds have better contrast.
[Xperia SP General] rexxxxx:
Before SP I had Xperia J (changed it because it was too slow for me) and the display of the J (lower resolution thou) have better black contrast and it is better looking.

The XSP display have really washed out colors like the Nexus 7 (2012) have and on the SP I think they are even worse.

I have made this test: made a screenshot of my phone desktop and then saw the picture in the album - when the Bravia ENGINE optimized the picture - it looked far better.

Is there a way to make Bravia ENGINE work all the time in real time ?
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
as far as I am concerned, it is not just Amoleds have better contrast. even HTC and Huawei have better contrast, so does Acer and Lenova phone and the rest. from certain angles, Sony ****ty display have almost zero contrast. I have checked with display sets of SP in many shops since. Xperia SP screen simply suck.
[Xperia SP General] ByteFalcon:
I've noticed this issue too, but I knew about it before I bought my phone. A lot of reviewers have mentioned it was present on the SP as well as Sony's other mid-range phones. It was hard to gauge how bad it is from just video reviews, but now that I have the phone I could say the reviews were kind of spot on. It doesn't bother me personally though, I still bought the phone knowing this, it was a small tradeoff for getting the specs and size I wanted for an Android phone.

You're right. Even if it doesn't bother some people I found it weird that Sony would have such a limitation on their phones especially since they boast that they're utilizing the technology from their other products (like TVs or cameras) into their phones. It's Sony's area of expertise yet they are letting the competition get the upper hand.
[Xperia SP General] sss2sssss:
How to check the touchscreen manufacturer? lol
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
I am also interested to know. how do one check the manufacturer ? do they use different manufacturer for the phone sold in different regions ? it is pointless for a display to look sharper when the black text on white surface, which are how most texts are shown on textfiles and pdfs, appeared like they have just been scanned from a 100-year-old book with text that are almost fading away. I am pretty sure if you use it for prolonged period of time reading text, your eyesight will deteriorate.
[Xperia SP General] raziel123:
Whites are always displayed better on a IPS/LCD/TFT screens compared to Amoled ones,

they also show up better in bright sunlight, due to the fact that the whole screen is lit up, instead of individual pixels,

whereas Colour contrast and blacks are better on Super Amoled ones,

it's a compromise, chose which ever suits you,

regards
[Xperia SP General] watchman.see:
i think the compromise is too big to ignore and accept. i think it is silly and ridiculous for any reasonable person to accept a screen display that show a page of white with black text that came across as though the pages are scanned from hundred year old over book with text that is almost fading away. it actually hurts eye of whoever that is reading it for an extended period of time and I have absolutely no idea why anyone would think this is acceptable.
