[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] A1CMcLovin:
First, I'd like to say that I have seen other threads on this topic and tried but failed.

I've gone through different roms, stock roms, stock radio, Odin, etc. I attempted to download ADB but it doesn't work on my windows 8 and I've just gone through so many problems that I can't take it anymore. I need help.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 i535 on the Verizon network.

It started with me trying to root my phone

I used the Odin method and CM 10.1 with Clockwork mod.

Phone booted up and everything and had Superuser but kept getting errors about process.android failing/closing as well as other processes.

I needed Gapps so I tried to flash the one for CM 10.1 and the installation when I boot it up would always fail due to network error. It showed up every reboot so to get rid of the endless failing I tried to change the rom in recovery.

Changing to Synergy Mod

As I went through the installer for Synergy, everytime it got to the wiping data/cache portion it rebooted the phone and failed to install.

BUT, when I went back to CM 10.1 the Gapps screen had finally vanished.

At this point

I had signal but could not send out texts or calls and I had no data connectivity.

Stock Attempts

Tried multiple attempts on this site as well as others, mostly having to use Odin. As of now, I'm in Android 4.0.4 stock rom and recovery with call/text ability, stuck in roaming (little R/triangle above bars), Google Play not opening, and no ability to update software due to no network connection.

Please, I don't know what else to do. I'm going insane and am losing hope, I need the help of you beautiful people.:eek:

I'm in the Air Force and it's hard to spend this much time trying to fix this issue, a lot of things are tied to my phone with it being my only communication. I'm okay with rooting my phone again but I need to get the 4G data working first. Thank you in advance.

I'll try anything, even if I have before, and i'll post the results. Any help is appreciated.

If you're completely stock on 4.0.4 try reprovisioning your phone. Open dialer and type this *2767*3855#

My Xperia Z started to act weird from two days ago, when it started to vibrate during all the time.

I restarted the phone,discharged the battery and recharged it again but it does not help me at all. It keeps vibrating even when the phone is turned off and it seems that it will never stop.

Did you guys had any similar issue?

Plzzz somebody help me:crying::crying::crying:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciapa1:
Did you tried a hard reset?(hold power and Vol Up at least 15 seconds)

And if i understand right, it vibrates too if you shut it down, or only from boot on?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aldusxp:
Yes,I've tried the hard reset as well but it does not work.

It keeps vibrating even when the phone is turned off ,until the battery dies.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~iPod~nano~:
what did you do before?

Immerse in water?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aldusxp:
No,not immersed in water.

I now that it seems crazy but the problem started in my pocket when the phone was together with my bio-metric passport for a couple of hours. Maybe it s caused from the chip of the passport?!:eek:

I want to share another fact with you:

Always before having this issue when I was pressing the phone from both sides with two fingers close to the menu button it starts vibrating but stops immediately after releasing it. I don't know if it happens to all Xperia Z mobile phones.

Thanks
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciapa1:
Doesn't happen on mine.

Maybe you should Send it to a Service Center or go to the shop where you bought it and ask for warranty. Did you Already tried to re-flash Stock Rom using FT?

Try flashing an old 4.1.1 one, it could be the NFC sensor. The downgrade will Also downgrade the NFC software. It may help.

If I should upload mine 4.1.1. ftf, just ask.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aldusxp:
No,I didn't tried reflashing.

I'm getting in touch with the shop because it is still under warranty.

Thanks for your help.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ~iPod~nano~:
no, NFC does not interact with vibrator motor. That two devices is so separated

Sony must replace your phone in any reason. That's definitely sony fault.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fid-Oo:
Just had the same problem, My sony Z is a repaired one just over a month old. It is Always in a Leather Case. Just 15 min ago the Phone just started vibrating (thought it was a call) non stop. Turned the Phone off but didn't stop. Turned it on again but nothing changed.

meanwhile searched the web for solutions, only thing i could find that it was hardware related.

Since the Phone is little to big for my pocket i thought it could be from flexing the Phone or something like that. So i put it back in it's case, and put it flat on my hand and gave it a firm tap on the back with my other hand. The 2nd try was succesfull and the Phone stopped vibrating.

Checked if normal vibration still works and found no problems.

My experience with the latest Phones is getting worse with every model they (HTC / Sony) release. Feels like the phones suffer more and more from stupid (hardware) problems. Looks like the Urge of releasing a new model every half year is showing its flaws...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KazBee:
Mine vibrating too and getting worse!

The store guy told me it was the cover I had it in. Bollocks. The cover has been off for two weeks and still it vibrates! Seems to be worse if I charge it via a USB charger in my car. Related perhaps? I just tried the suggested holding down of power and volume and it has stopped vibrating. Fingers crossed! Glad I'm not the only one but need a fix
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BMXLY:
same thing here. my phone is vibrating RIGHT NOW!

my z3 is dual sim model the D6633. only 2 weeks old.

GOD! why me

vibration problem

Hello,

I had the same problem.

Sony claims that there products are waterproof.

We as customers like that and want to try it out.

Maybe not in a swimming pool but at least clean it under de faucet.

That should be no problem, it is waterproof right!!!

After a while this vibration problem occur to your device.

Because none of these solutions help to stop this problem I decide to open my Xperia Z2.

My surprise was that I saw very small tracks of water inside!

Then I put it in the hot sun while it was open en the problem disappeared.

My conclusion:

It is NOT waterproof en a small short circuit causes the vibration problem.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rzr92:
It works thanx alot

could you explain how you did this?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperHanss:
Yep sure. Basically all of the softkey images are PNG files stored inside SystemUI.apk. And it's really straight forward if you just want to replace PNG files such as battery, signal and softkey icons.

There are two ways, you can either decompile SystemUI.apk and replace the PNGs inside (harder, time consuming method) or use a program called 7zip to open the apk archive and replace the PNGs (easier, quick method).

I used the second method to replace the softkeys. Here's how to do it:

*Always backup in recovery before modifying files*

Install 7zip

Right click SystemUI.apk and select 7zip -> Open archive

You'll see a few files/folders, open 'res' then 'drawable-xxhdpi' you'll see lots of PNG files

The ones I replaced were 'ic_sysbar_home.png' and 'ic_sysbar_home_land.png'

Drag these two files to the Desktop and open them with Photoshop or any image editing software

Erase the existing image and replace with any other desired logo/icon and save (remember the background must be kept transparent)

Drag the edited files back into the SystemUI.apk archive (res->drawable-xxhdpi)

Then copy the edited SystemUI.apk back to your phone, then move it to /system, change permissions to rw- r-- r-- then move it to /system/app and overwrite when prompted (your phone will probably reboot, it's normal)

That's it! :)

Looks like trick with installing additional keyboard to get internet sharing stopped working after Amber update (even for the developer device!) :(

So, if you on Amber, DO NOT TOUCH stupid Nokia's "Access point" app in the setting or you'll lose your ability to tether your mobile connection.

"Thanks", damn AT&T & Nokia...
[Nokia Lumia 920] derausgewanderte:
you can get it back by doing a factory reset. PITA I know, but one way to get it back. Posted on WPCEntral. See step 12.
[Nokia Lumia 920] sensboston:
Are you sure? I saw that post but still have some doubts... Before Amber - yes, it works this way, keyboard installation restore registry settings. But looks like Nokia "fixed the issue" (damn greedy bastards, AT&T & Nokia!) so I'll wait for some proof - I'm not ready to waste my time for reinstalling & restoration :(

P.S. I'm start thinking about changing platform: I'm so tired with damn MS & Nokia and all these limitations! Will wait for Nexus 5 with LTE...
[Nokia Lumia 920] gee2012:
Internet sharing works flawless for me on Amber, though i`am not on AT&T off course (Netherlands) and it is an unlocked device.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Solarenemy68:
I have a 920 and AT&T. With my account the phone will actually go out and verify if my account allows tethering before it will turn it on. I switched to the 3gb plan thinking it would be enough, but was not aware that it did not include tethering. When I tried to turn tethering on the phone said tethering is not currently enabled and to contact AT&T for further information. Once I switched back the the 5GB plan that does allow tethering the phone turns tethering on with no issues.

I do not have Amber yet but my guess is that the phone will still behave the same on an AT&T account. It will verify if you have a plan that supports tethering regardless of any keyboard trick that to my knowledge does not even work on official ROMS.
[Nokia Lumia 920] Etaduck:
I can confirm that the keyboard unlock works for bypassing the tethering check on amber dev rom for ATT, up until you open the access point app..... I already did 2 factory resets to get to Amber, I think I'm just going to hold off on it for a while until I know I'll need it. I don't use it as much as I use to.
[Nokia Lumia 920] sensboston:
OK, thanks guys for the info. I'm also don't use tethering very often, just a couple of times (to test a new Nexus 7 GPS stability with google maps).
[Nokia Lumia 920] TopoX84:
mine still working even after opening the Access point... =\
[Nokia Lumia 920] sensboston:
Are you on AT&T plan? That limitation added by (damn & greedy) AT&T request - they want more my money for the built-in handset functionality!
[Nokia Lumia 920] Etaduck:
And for that matter, what ROM are you on?
[Nokia Lumia 920] derausgewanderte:
guess the question I have is whether "merely opening access point" will break it or whether you actually have to make a change, e.g. switch from LTE2 to LTE1 and back. From posts at WPCentral it seems that people lost tethering when they made a change.

just a guess.
[Nokia Lumia 920] TopoX84:
well I'm not on AT&T but T-mobile USA,

and i'm on ROM 059R2L5 which is the AT&T Developer device black...

Hi All,

Got a GS4 i9505 originally locked to Vodafone, had to downgrade modem firmware to unlock to all networks - put in a Three sim - gives me signal but for emergency calls only - No data, no texts and no calls.

upgraded the modem firmware again - no change.

But a stock rom on - No change

Rooted and put a custom rom on - no change.

Tried a different sim (EE) and doesnt give any signal.

Everything now points to the IMEI being blocked right - Nope, checked that and its not blocked.

So im stuck, any ideas?

Its on 4.2.2 - stock rom - it was on a custom rom (not sure what though)

When you say Modem, do you mean the hardware or software?

If it is the modem, how would the 3 sim get signal but an EE sim wont?

Hi all,

EDIT: IT SEEMED TO HAVE FIXED ITSELF - MODS Please delete thread!

I have had my Sony Xperia Z Ultra for a while now and experienced many of the bugs read on this forum.

When I saw the .532 update for the HK version I immediately went on to flash it officially via the Update Service (mine is the HK version).

It updated fine without but I couldn't turn the screen off fully and the backlight stayed on continously draining the battery very rapidly.

So I decided to restore the device fully via the Official update service and this when the problem occured.

It started updating without problems but after a few seconds it just stopped and told me there was an error.

I tried it a few times to no avail and get similar result with the flashtool.

If anyone has any suggestions fire away.

Also, BL not unlocked, not root and neither custom recovery.
