why not use custom rom which is based on windows..!!

I have a Galaxy S4 running Android 4.2.2 and have been looking through the Settings->Accounts->Add account menu and found there is an entry called "Server" that seems to allow you to sync calendar and contacts from a specified server. Does anyone know how this works? I have tried pointing it at my OwnCloud server but cannot seem to get it to work...

Is there a way to turn down how bright the LED's are for notifications? I just updated from stock to CM 10.2 and the LED notification lights are a lot brighter, and a different color. It's so bright that when I'm charging my phone at night the light really bugs me. I liked the old blue light from teh stock set up much better.

I looked around and also searched but didn't see anything on this.

Thanks,

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Manevitch:
What about using the Quiet Hours setting to disable the LED altogether during certain hours?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Citznfish:
I have it set to turn off the ringer. If it does the LED's too I totally missed it. Will check that out.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DefunctiO:
Good evening ladies and gentlemen.

I have received my Z1 day before yesterday, it is a great phone with amazing performance BUT

While taking some pictures, phone refused to continue, apparently it was too hot. I will post a screenshot.

Then when I connected to a original charger, xperia told me that the source is insufficient and my phone won't charge fast enough.. (i might have been playing some games, but still, original accessory). Is this ok?

I have heard that some Z1 phone have included screen protector mine did not have it. Other info I read is that there is one already installed, I can't see anything on the device though. And what about voiding warranty when removing it?

And is there a way to root phone (without unlocking bootloader) and voiding warranty?

Thank you guys for your answers and have a great day :)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Don't know about this, sorry

There is a factory fitted screen protector, you can feel the edges of it at the very edge of the screen with your fingernails.

You will not void warrenty by removing it, I normally do remove it from xperia phones (Its difficult but can be done with your fingernails) but I have not done it yet on my Z1

Yes, just look in the two threads about rooting in the dev section.

Don't forget, rooting is different to unlocking
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadFromWales85:
The protector pre-installed to the screen is not a scratch protector. It is a shatter protector, and scratches easily. It is also where the 'SONY' logo is printed, and removing it does invalidate your warranty.

It is recommended a screen protector is installed over the top of this shatter protector.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
I have never had a problem with this.

Infact I removed this from my xperia T as soon as I got it. then several months later I dropped the phone flat onto its face onto a metal spike and screen shattered.

I got a free replacement under warrenty and no mention of the protector being removed.

I also, have never read in any of my contracts about warrenty being invalidated if its removed.

I also keep my phone in my pocket with loose change and car keys with no screen protector or case and have neve had a scratch or anything. the only time I had an issue was when I dropped it, and trust me, the way it was dropped, and what it landed on, it would not have mattered if it was srapped in bubble wra, it would still have shattered
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jiyeon90:
Thats false, removing the shatter protector that comes pre-installed doesnt void your warranty
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LadFromWales85:

I downloaded warranty guide (for UK and Slovakia) from sony web site and I didn't found anything about shutter protector :-/
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DefunctiO:
So, to sum it up..

1. Screen

- there is screen protector pre installed

- we do not know for sure if removing it will void my warranty

- it is recommended to put another screen protector over it

2. Root

- If I avoid unlocking bootloader it will not void my warranty.

- there is how to on XDA already

3. Overheating while taking pictures

- no info so far here

- am I really the only one with issue?

4. Charging

- again the only one? (happened only once, is it reason to contact telekom?)

Thank you guys for your answers
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:

overheating z1

ok youre not the only one:confused:

i just bought my z1 3 days ago and all was fine.

until today, i spent 30mins playing with chrome and taking pictures and the back of the z1 got extra hot.

The camera didnt work anymore, was showing the overheat warning as you posted in here.

I wonder if this an issue with the mobile or is it a firmware problem ?

Lemme know if u have any solutions

getting hot is normal yeah, but getting extremly hot and camera stops working coz overheating, i dont see that as normal

what ya think ?

---------- Post added at 09:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 AM ----------

same for me, my software is 14.1.G.1.534, and it did not solve anything. what happens if u keep using it when getting extremly hot? r we in a risk of burning it ?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chekhn:
Well i am not sure, but can a phone overclock by itself? Cuz' if so than that might be the problem, if you have root you can try to download some app in google play and try to "underclock" and see if that helps, if it helps it might be that your phone is overcklocking by itself
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msupreme:
why should it overclock by itself? i never heard about this. i am not rooted no, since its a new mobile, i dont wish to root it yet.

I think sony should urgently look at this issue before we seriously burn the hell out of it :)

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shinasurada:
If using an international LTE capable note 3 in a country with incompatible bands, the phone will run on hspa+ mode, but the phone will be constantly looking for an LTE signal.

A phone consumes the most battery when searching for a signal.

Does this mean that using an LTE capable phone in a HSPA+ environment will cause a battery drain? I.e. its better to get the n9000 and not the n9005 if using an international unlocked phone in the USA.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cj10488:
So I have had 2 screens crack for no apparent reason. 1st replaced by costco under warranty. Second I send to samsung. Samsunf supervisor claims the sprint version as well as multiple other us carriers do not include gorilla glass. They discounted the repair from 200 down to 70 due to the confusion but warned me that the phane absolutely does not have gorilla glass and if it had they would without a doubt civer it under warranty.

Multiple samsung reps will confirm this. If you check on Sprints website you will see no mention of gorilla glass on the s4 either

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] amieldl143:
Hell no want my money back....freak kind a glass is this.....I'm so pissed right now...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mjs2011:
I'm generally afraid of gorillas, so I'm happy with this news.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Likwidflux:
The S3 doesn't say Gorilla Glass either. Corning advertises it

http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/products-with-gorilla/samsung/Samsung-GALAXY-S4
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cj10488:
All international versions of the s4 have gorilla glass. In US versions these versions do not. Verizon claims theirs does so yes it probably does.

James
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Foch3:
They all have Gorilla Glass. I repair the screens and get real intimate with the glass when taking them apart and they're all the same. Just played with a L720 and I545 and they both break with the same amount of force.

I know its not scientific but as best I can tell its the same glass.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] daniel4653:
Why the hell would the US variants not use the same glass as international. Doesn't seem logical to me. It would cost more money as you would have two different assembly lines, increasing the cost just to put a cheaper glass like the guys above us are saying.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mjs2011:
How intimate do you get? Do you actually......hump the glass?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] hunterbeav:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] robogoflow:
Lmfaoo.. That's too funny.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] KennyG123:
Gorilla glass is scratch resistant...not scratch-proof or unbreakable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] supercholo:
No phone directly says Gorilla Glass anymore. Check tech specs on most phones and for the most part they say scratch resistant glass.

In the US, Gorilla Glass is no longer a selling point as it once was. A few years ago when it was new everyone asked about it. No one really asks this anymore. I have had maybe 1 person ask about gorilla glass in the last 6 months. The focus is resolution, camera and extras. Those are what providers focus their info on.

If you compare these screens vs normal glass screens (cheap ebay replacements) there is a noticable difference. From thickness (check with a micrometer) to strength and weight. A real gorilla glass screen is a hair thicker than glass but noticably heavier.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] maxpower7:
Pretty much any phone these days is made with some form of chemically-treated scratch-resistant glass, with or without the "gorilla" branding.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eskomo:
All US S4's have Gorilla Glass 3. Just confirmed with Samsung on the phone and with a Sprints Phone Rep. Not on the phone with a desk jockey. But the actual Rep for phones. No one brags anymore about Gorilla Glass as its just common knowledge. But it's there and part #'s prove it. Samsung stated basicly the same thing. All S4's have GG3. Its standard and they would not deviate from that for any reason.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] kvan1707:
Glad to hear it is GG3 because everytime one of my customers at work flaunts their iPhone, I say, "can you do this?" And proceed to hammer my phone with my car key. Took two years to break my Epic 4G that way... lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eskomo:
Well understand that metal is softer than glass. So it won't scatch it but it can scratch the top layer that is there to prevent finger prints and stuff. I'm not sure how to spell it so I won't attempt but I'm sure someone else knows.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] elodis:
Good to know - thanks for the research
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] GramKrackr:
The only thing it is, is an "Oleophobic" coating on the glass for scratches, prints, things like that. That is why if you see some older or lower end phones once the coating deteriorates you can see like blemishes and scratches that seem to look like there almost in the paint or under the glass. Really common wither older iPhone screens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] KittyTeapots:
Although I know this has been addressed just to reiterate. .. I am a sprint Rep myself and yes the S4 (all versions) does contain the GG or Gorilla Glass. Anyone think we can get a Cleaner out here to close down this thread. No offense CJ I am sure were just trying to help and get info you were told out there. But unfortunately everyone doesnt know their stuff ( as I'm sure you now know) this is how false information gets around.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] maxpower7:
"Oleophobic" just means that the screen is fingerprint resistant (it repels grease to some degree). It doesn't have anything to do with scratch protection.

I am wondering if anyone knows of an app or a mod now that I have rooted my xperia T, that will allow me to control all the different volumes as one.

I find having sepperate volumes for everything more of a hinderance than a help, Id be quite happy to go back to the days of my old Nokia 3310 where I had a single volume switch for everything.

Also if this is possible I would also like to make the phone lock all volumes to max when a bluetooth audio connection is made, I have managed to do this with volume control+, but havnt found a way of controlling all the volumes at the same time with that app.

I'll give it a shot...

Coming from a Note 2, and I rely a lot on Google Now (aka Voice Search).

I was able to set up my Note 2 to launch Google Now by long pressing the menu key.

If there's a way to do this on the Note 3, I haven't found it yet. Anyone know a way? (For now, my workaround is to long press the home key to bring up task switcher and press the globe icon to launch Google Now.)

Question 2:

I used Internet Browser (had manually installed flash) on my Note 2. The version on my Note 2 had a "Labs" menu where you could turn on a circular floating menu feature to operate most browser functions by just sliding your thumb in from a screen edge. I got really fast with that and feel very inefficient in the browser without it.

My Note 3's Internet Browser app doesn't appear to have a "Labs" menu at all. Any secret way anyone knows to get that menu (or the floating circular thumb menu feature) back on this apparently newer version of the app? I know loading an older version of the app is probably out of the question without root.

Thanks for reading my stupid questions.

Despite these minor quibbles, I'm really loving this faster, brighter phone and its (in my opinion) vastly better camera.
