[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SUPERUSER:
jesus...way to bump like almost the first thread in here.

Why did u even use vroot????? It was the first AND now known to be a malware solution to root your phone. Yes I did use this too when we were the first in here because then there was no other way to gain root.

Today there is many other and all of them is more "safe" ways to root your phone then vroot :confused:

No trolling!! Thinking about moving to iPhone?. I really like the design since the iPhone 4. I love big phones phablets. I love android I'm a neutral. But recently Apple's new gold iPhone caught my attention, not just the design but updated internals, I know I know, overpriced. Not as open as phones. But is it really bad to try something new, see if they really talk true about how perfect the iPhone is? Please no trolling. I recently was offered an iPhone 5 64gb in trade for my ultra. Let me know your thoughts guys. Thanks
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] baileyjr:
I ditched ios a few years back, to restrictive and the screen size will kill you.

At least the guy who wanted to swap for your ultra had the right idea :D
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] witeboy07:
Lol, I mean yes. Restrictive and small. But games and apps are more popular and big names like Disney and stuff like that, my daughter likes to play and not much of that is available on android.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jacktherapper00:
If you're not feeling the borders of restrictions due to your way of usage, then its just about the screensize. So if you want a way to use the apps, then go for an iPad Mini.

Gives you the best of both worlds.

Disney option for your daughter, and a good phone (XZU) for you.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sebring5:
There is nothing wrong or bad about the iPhone. It is the best out of the box solution for most people. No need to add apps or do more than minimal set up. It works and works well. Not for me though-I like big screen, customization, variety of apps and the ability to experiment. Android is less defined and more challenging-a tinge of excitement in an otherwise mundane landscape.

Android is more defined and less challenging than ever-it's losing its edge. With CyanogenMod going corporate, hopefully someone new will step into the captain's chair and boldly go where no one has gone before. We are talking Smart watches, Google glass, flexible phones and credit card phones that slip into your wallet. Maybe a phone implant with your hand as the dial pad? What about a phone you never touch? Sounds like something Steve Jobs would like to do. After all, Android fell from the Apple tree.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
Weird, Android was created 4 years before IPhone and by a team of 4 people who never worked for Apple.

This is a really personal matter. But if you like phablet, you have the best of it in your hands. The guy who offer you an iPhone 5 against your XZU know what he is doing. He would be all winner.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] SpyderTracks:
Urm, sorry, but android was only in beta in 2007, not released publicly until 2008, iOS was mainstream in 2007. And Eric Schmidt came from Apple. Just setting some facts straight.

I think for a child's needs, iPhone is a lot more suitable. Has better security and apps. But agree with above poster, get her an Ipad and keep the ZU for yourself!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Android was actually meant to power printers back in the days, and then they concentrated on making it into a smartphone OS - but with physical buttons like a good ol' Blackberry. Then when the iPhone got released, they scrapped all of that and went with the touchscreen experience. A smart move, but Android wasn't the first touch friendly OS.

But let's not make this thread into a flame thread. OP is curious and is thinking about jumping ship. I was an iPhone users before I got a Desire HD, and it was "fine". iOS is an okay OS for what it is, but I quickly grew tired of its restrictive nature. I jailbroke and what not, but let me tell you that things that isn't "native" to iOS ("widgets", and other springboard mods) ran like complete ****. If you want a simple and straight forward experience, then iOS is the perfect solution. I've recommended the iPhone to a lot of friends who only send SMS' and do simple things. If you're an advanced user that likes to modify and actually DO stuff with your device, it'll be hell on earth.

If you want a PHONE, get an iPhone. If you want a flexible DEVICE, keep the Ultra.

I dig apple products. I own pretty much every apple products, except for the iphone. I had the first gen up to 4s. I needed big screen phone because of poor vision..hence the Note1. But now im a much happier camper with zu.

Iphone5 for the ZU? Heck NO. 5s maybe.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] avetny:
I very like iPhone 5s hardware specs...it's sick....nothing to say.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] djmaxi:
To each of us their own... I'm quite happy with the Ultra, could be perfect if Sony fixes the SOD. Nevertheless I was playing with the 5S yesterday and it's silky smooth, couldn't avoid imagining it with a bigger screen... But that doesn't exist, so far there is no perfect device but at least we have plenty of options.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] witeboy07:
Yes. That's what I'm saying. The iPhone has an amazing design and the internals are eye candy. I would go with like a 32gb since no sd slot. I see the iPhone as a more professional device.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] ewatt74:
Well i've had every iphone except the 5s. I've had both notes 1 and 2. And now the Xperia Z Ultra. You will love the iphone at first then you will very soon grow tired of it and the small screen an come back to android.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjb1567:
I need some help I've read plenty of help pages on this and only made things worse. I had everything rooted, flashed, and unlocked using the windroid desire hd tool kit which is amazing by the way! I didn't think about using the Gain S-off options which was foolish of me :rolleyes:. So I flash CM10 and get stuck on the htc logo. I tried to fastboot the boot.img and it kept giving me the error "cannot load boot.img". I also tried flashing the file with the windroid tool kit in the fastboot tab. That didn't work so i read in one of the threads to re-lock the bootloader. Which was a :silly: foolish move also. I would just like to know what can I do before I make things worse. :confused: Help would be greatly appreciated :good:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ranger4740:
It would help us diagnose your issue if you told us exactly what command you typed to try and flash boot.img, the error you reporting doesn't sound quite right.

P.s. after reading your post again it would also seam to me you didn't do enough reading before jumping in to making changes to your phone.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjb1567:
What did I not do right? Besides the S-OFF.

Is what I typed in the command prompt.

Well I fixed my problem myself I used fastboot to unlock the bootloader again then flashed that boot.img for the rom. Thanks for replying to my thread
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_blitz:
After buying my phone from a person (not an authorized seller) I factory reset the phone and it showed up in Arabic language, however since I accidentally bricked it I wasn't able to take a good look at what it's stock firmware was, Is there anyway at all to find what stock firmware I should be using? since I can't access the Lockscreen or the shutdown/screenshot features of the phone, I'm using a Turkey country 4.1.2 firmware :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Go to Samfirmware. You can use the pulldown boxes to choose OS/phone model/country/carrier & it will give you a list of stock roms released by that carrier. At the end of the day it doesn't matter what (or even if) stock firmware you run, though obviously it might be difficult to get OTA updates if you're not running one for your country.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dark_blitz:
Well that's easy but they said on the newbie thread that in practice it's okay but it's not since the modems are different, and I already searched for a stock firmware but the problem is that the lockscreen isn't responding or not functioning (regardless of what screen lock you would like be it pattern or pin). They also said that I should use my IMEI to match the stock firmware I'm supposed to use? but I don't know that method yet. :(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
If you flash a stock rom for your carrier, you will get a modem that's presumed they tested thorougly enough so it works for most people most of the time with their network before they released the rom.

If you've got that lockscreen issue, that's a different problem, but try flashing a stock rom for your carrier (and do a wipe after) before you do anything else.

An IMEI search won't give you the info you're after. And as I said in my PP, it's not important, but to make sure of things you flash a rom for your carrier.

Since we are talking about esthetics, that's an entirely subjective matter... I like stock Google but I like much more Touchwiz. My launcher is Nova Prime but I use stock Touchwiz icons, for example.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cherek:
I probably blundered upgrading my compact:

I read the page on a site where the whole procedure (which is the Word-file in the ftp's Backuptool folder) was explained. It stated that an SD card with at least 128 MB of space was needed for the whole procedure.

Since I had 132 mb left on mine I thought I could use that one, which was the one with my sprite backup file and games and sorts.

But the card remains unreadable for the Compact and XP. So must I really format it or is the some workaround to retrieve my stuff or delete whatever romupdate or ntrw did to my sd-card, leaving the data I had on it before the procedure?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] jimmy-bish:
Sorry to say this but your data's gone unless you get a program like undelete that can read data that's been passed over twice, even then I can't garantee that as I'm not sure if that process works on SD cards (I'm guessing it does). You will have to reformat the card to make it readable again first.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cherek:
O.k. too bad. Thanks jimmy. It's not a huge problem, I've got my Compact for just about a month now, so nothing too important on it yet. Well If you consider an AOE campaign not really important :wink:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] jimmy-bish:
LOL, I know what you mean about AOE! When I got my phone I played it for hours and hours. Then my card decided to corrupt itself. One and only time it's happened, too. When I didn't have an up-to-date backup! Lost my game, I nearly cried! That happened 2 months ago and I still haven't brought myself to reinstall the game cos it would just frustrate me now!
[HTC One X] Makiaveli22:
I flashed a custom six months ago and all was good until I tried to flash the new version of the rom.

When I go into recovery I get a black screen with the backlight on.

When I press the capacitive buttons I feel the phone vibrate I then connect it to my pc and can send commands to the like reboot phone, reboot bootloader etc.

I have tried flashing the latest versions of 2 custom recoverys, tried clearing the cache using fboot, tried flashing the rom through goomanager and it gets suck at recovery and nothing is working.

When I flash the recovery image is says image flashed successfully.

I have downloaded the ruu for the phone so might have to flash the ruu as it should not need to use the recovery.

Please help I need to flash a custom rom or go back to stock.

FC While Saving..

Hi,

This app seems very cool, I have tested your app with multiple versions.. below are the results..

Picpac_release_V1.01.apk -- Memory error

Picpac_release.apk (Hopes its latest) - Able to capture but getting FC while saving.

Observations:

The app is capturing pics very slowly, due to the slowness in capturing the users are clicking camera button multiple times which is leading to FC - please look into this area.

I am also observed double click on any icon (Ex: once all the three pics are captured there is a go icon) also leading to FC.

Hope this feedback will help you and looking forward to try this app again.

XPERIA P - JB 4.1

Thanks for sharing the app.
[Android Apps and Games] genliang.guan:
+++++++++

Updated to V1.02, fix some memory leak (recycling most bitmaps), reduce memory usage (resizing icons and bitmaps).

+++++++++

About "capturing pics very slowly", I make it auto focus first then take the picture to make sure of a clear picture. Need more signs to show it.

Regarding "double clicking" an icon. Now I set a boolean to skip the second+ clicks until the photo is taken. For me this make no difference so far, but it is safer.

Also for the above suggestion (thank you!), I added the camera sound after each camera button click. I was trying to add a quick white flash above the imageview after eash in case it is in silent mode, but it is not easy to make it look good... Leave it for next release.

See the first post to download the new apk without waiting for the store update.

I have already got more "one star" than "five star" at the store. Hope this would help. My fault to release it without more testing:crying:
