This ROM is friggen amazing. My question what is the best kernel for battery life and sometimes my screen flickers how can I fix that?
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] mareis1973:
Rom is fine. Battery life isn't that good and I also have this flickering

[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] benni_1994:
Can confirm that the screen flickers. Mostly in dark background
[Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development] feelpt:
Which release are you guys using?

Are you guys using auto brightness?

I never noticed that on my device... I'm using release from 05.11.

As for battery life, it has improved a lot since the first release, specially in the last 2 releases. The stock kernel is based on KT, and you can use some kernel tweaking app like trickster to set the kernel to your needs.

I'm using greenify and deepsleep bat saver which, together with a little underclock and undervolt allows me to get around 4h30-5h00 screentime (heavy web browsing and game playing). With deepsleep bat saver it switches wifi and/or data off while screen off and turns it auto on when you unlock screen... This was where I noticed the biggest battery gain.

Some posts ago I also posted links to some slim gapps, which are basically the google core services and playstore (all the rest can be downloaded from playstore). Here I also noticed a big increase in battery life - no more random services hogging around..

In previous release I was using official KT kernel with some bat profile from the following link :

Is there any command line parameters for the camera.exe PPC 2003 2003SE & 2005.

Need to do the following if poss

Call up the camera ensure it is set to photo

set resolution

Auto save file in (my Documents)

Auto close camera.exe without preview

Is there a hack to get activesync4 to sync pocket access tables.

I can connect a 2003SE machine and sync okay with ver 4. Maybe there a way to hack the registry to ignore checking the OS version

Xda Camera command line parameters (some of them...)

Hi - been messing around calling camera.exe from pocketC / command line

(an ancient and obsolete virtual machine language for windows2003!)

So far I've managed to start the camera and change modes using these

parameters:

exec("open","/Windows/camera.exe","-i");

these are the parameters i've discovered so far:

-i =photo mode

-v =video mode

-p =contact photo mode

-m =mms video mode (also switches screen to landscape !?)

Hope these are of some use!

If amyone finds out the the argument to press the shutter button

PLEASE tell me!!

I think it might be some kind of hexadecimal code - but I am not

very bright with this stuff...

I'd like to first of all thank the CM guys for a great ROM - I'm a skeptic, but I really like it, nice work.

So far everything works on this ROM except I have two nagging issues:

1) My WIFI constantly cycles on and off - that's a deal breaker, I use my DNA alot online for work.

&

2) My LTE signal is much weaker now. Instead of the usual 4 bars at the office, I get 2.

Any help would be fantastic.

The CM 10.2 that I've loaded is: 10.2-20131014-NIGHTLY-dlx

Thanks so much.

CM reports false radio info. It should be the same as long as recent radio's are installed..

I spent a lot of time researching - and taking pot shots from some of the devs about not installing NIGHTLY ROMs on my daily phone.... and finally decided to go with a prime time ready ROM. So I installed ViperDNA, it's perfect so far.

Thanks for the help folks.
[HTC Droid DNA] pjfry808:
I've had similar problems with the radio and WiFi in CM10.2 nightlies. Ended up installing Viper Sense 5 just to get to 4.2. Sense 5 is horrible but I don't want to go back to 4.1 so I can't wait to see a working AOSP ROM.

Updated to the latest nighty (10.2-20131201-NIGHTLY-dlx). Same problem, very weak signal.

Sorry if I hijack the thread, but I have 2 more questions:

1. Is it possible to make to icon group background transparent (when you group multiple app icons)? The circle black background looks terrible.

2. What can I do to have the actionable email notification, i.e. the ability to delete email when I pull down the notification bar?

TIA.

I also get weak signal. After I left stock.

I'm sure there r mods out there but never looked. I don't think you can delete emails from pull down or at least I can't.

Unfortunately no Sony Store in the Toronto area has any unlocked phones in stock, or if they did they are hoarding them :(

Supposedly the stores will be getting their unlocked phones on Friday and stores are doing pre-orders now. This whole "launch" is pretty discouraging - as it seems like there are not that many phones available - my local store is only getting 4 black phones - I'm number 5 so won't be getting one until the end of October - which is when the next shipment is expected. I wasn't even told there was a pre-order system setup - even when I visited the store beforehand trying to get a glimpse of a display model. There wasn't any then, but there is one now - so my trip wasn't a total waste of time. Finally got a chance to see a working model.

Locked phones are available but seem to be selling slower - either that or they got more stock. Maybe Sony Canada didn't anticipate there would be demand for off-contract phones?

If anybody knows of any Toronto/GTA locations that still have open pre-orders I would like to know. A friend just picked up a Rogers locked one today.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gitaroo:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhsanU:
Hold on guys - what does this mean for US people? I'm about to get a Canadian friend to buy a Z1 from Bell and ship it over to me in the US for use with AT&T. Will I have any issues? I don't want to return another phone if it doesn't work for me.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksoze:
I would advise against getting a Bell model - unless you're getting a discount. If you're paying the full price that Bell is asking for ($699 + tax), you might as well get the factory unlocked version directly from Sony for the same price. Rogers has the purple colour locked down if that's your preference, so only Black or White available from other sources.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AhsanU:
Thing is, I've gotten pretty desperate. I contacted Bell and in order to be able to use the phone in the US, the carrier does need to unlock it. That's an added fee of 60 dollars from Bell. I also contacted a Sony store in Markham, ON and they said that the earliest I can get an unlocked one from them would be a month or so from now, or until their next shipment.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aridoasis:
Just buy direct from Sony man - no need to pay extra for carrier unlock, and no carrier bloatware. Bell is selling it a $699, then you pay $60 to unlock, then there's the 13% Tax - that's about $860.

If you can't wait that long, see if you can get it from Rogers since they are selling it for $599 off-contract. At least you save a bit.

I myself will be getting it from my provider because hardware upgrade - picking one up tonight.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksoze:
Alright - just got back home after fighting rush hour traffic from Yorkdale Mall.

This whole experience has seriously cast doubts as to whether I will

ever

purchase another new Sony phone again.

I have been given so much misinformation both over the phone and in person its getting ridiculous. It seems that they really want you to be physically at the store so that they can upsell you on other items - I was told over the phone that the box doesn't contain headphones, so that I should go there and pick out one or maybe even a bluetooth headset. All this when I just simply asked about the pre-order status.

The latest I have heard was that all stores are taking pre-orders and the warehouse will be shipping out units to the stores as they are placed. I had one salesperson tell me over the phone that the black unit was heavily back ordered (negative inventory), while the white was still available - only to get to the store and told that it doesn't matter - they're both backordered. They can't even guess at when I would be getting a phone. I was also told that the 18th was the official launch date and they weren't allowed to release the phones, which coincides with other info from this thread. The problem is that I was also told today that the Upper Canada Mall location had inventory since yesterday and they just sold the last one today!!! WTF? I've been told that I would get one next week, end of Oct. or even next month - this has all been extremely frustrating.

I really wish they would just allow you to pre-order online and have it shipped to the store like a normal retailer would.

AhsanU - if you want to put me in contact with your friend I can let them know when I receive my phones (2 on pre order), or ask them to get to the closest Sony store and just put down a deposit and hope for the best. Bell and Rogers are notorious for overcharging for everything, whereas Telus is a bit better, but they will all take advantage you given the chance. The unlocking fee is only supposed to be $50 but I'm not sure if they included the tax already. Why do they insist on locking the phones when you're either buying the phone outright or signing a contract that stipulates financial penalties when breaking said contract. In Asia, none of the phones are locked and companies actually compete with each other. I just hope there is a special place in hell for all these telecommunication executives...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aridoasis:
in asia, the phones you get from carries are locked (from the Philippines anyway - I grew up there ). But there are so many retailers of unlocked phones that its easy to pick one up.

Unlike here in NA, the retailers there. mostly only carry unlocked devices.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] totaltoanage:
Hey aridoasis,

Are you saying to get the phone from a Canada Sony store and it will come unlocked for the C6906 model?

I'm also in the USA and was wondering whats the best plan to get the phone unlocked C6906 to work on AT&T's LTE frequency.

There is no way in hell I am spending that much money and not getting LTE.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aridoasis:
Yes, aside from the locked Z1's from carries, Sony Canada will be retailing the Z1 c6906 UNLOCKED. At the moment, they only have the Z Ultra available, but the Z1 should be available soon.
