[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
Is there any way to do this? I have a mate who lives in Cyprus, and I'm using that JustDial service to use my free O2 minutes to ring his mobile (instead of rack up tens of quids worth of extra charges every month)... On my old Nokia, I used to be able to tap the asterisk key three times to get a p, and four times to get a w ... So say, if you were dialing the number 08707 123456 to access the international dialing service, and then dialing the number of the person you wanted to call, you could insert an entry into the address book like

08707123456p0035987654

(where 0035987654 is the number of the person you wish to call via the 08707 service).

The difference between the p and w commands, for those who don't know, is that if you typed p, the number would just pause for 3 seconds before dialing the numbers after it, regardless of whether the call had connected or not, but if you used w, the phone would wait until a connection had been made, and THEN dial the numbers after it (useful for connecting to an exchange number on a corporate phone system, or quickly accessing a particular menu on your phone network's helpline).

Oddly though, it seems (to me, at least) like there's no way of replicating this functionality on a much more expensive phone - I've tried typing P and W into the number dialog using the on-screen keyboard, but the phone just ignores any letters, I've tried tapping the asterisk key to show the symbols, but they're not there, I've tried holding down the key to get the symbols (the only symbol you can get is the + symbol by holding down the zero key, and that's only if it's the first character in the string of numbers)... I'm a bit disappointed, because that means I then have to delve into my phone book whilst I'm on the line to the Justdial service, which means I waste about 45secs/a minute retrieving the Cyprus number, putting the phone on speakerphone, typing in the Cyprus number and THEN connecting to my mate's phone.

Anybody found a way of getting this pause/wait functionality on the 2i, or am I relegated to having to type the second number manually? Seems a bit rubbish if I'll have to do that, especially considering a much cheaper phone that came out four years ago can easily manage this functionality. :(
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] kevino:
Try 08707123456,,,,0035987654
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] christopherwoods:
IT WORKED! Genius. Thanks very much dude :D Took about four seconds before it started to dial the second number, as I guessed it might do (one comma per second... logical, captain), and it didn't show the second number while it was dialing, but I don't care about that because it works!

Many thanks, have an eBeer on me. ;)

Hey guys!

I wonder if there is an option somewhere hidden so that taken piictures have date and time in there filename. I think thats way more vonvenient than just a number..

Or is there a mod maybe?

[Xperia SP General] omoithesane:
Maybe I missed some annoucement... does anyone know if Sony will release sources for 12.0.A.2.254?

Seems to me that development for custom kernels (like Doomlord's) have stalled because there are no sources available.
[Xperia SP General] Rajeev:
Not available yet... :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[Xperia SP General] omoithesane:
I know :crying:

But does anyone know if Sony will release the sources? How long does this usually take? I think FW .254 was released a month ago...
[Xperia SP General] MagicMagicD:
As I understand it they have no choice but to release the kernel source as it's linux and the licensing requires that it be made available. That said, the proprietary blobs for the cameras, wifi, etc. aren't generally licensed the same way so they don't normally get released, at least in source form.
[Xperia SP General] eagleeyetom:
I've requested Sony to provide the source and they will do that really soon :)
[Xperia SP General] omoithesane:
Nice! :good: :D :fingers-crossed:

Just out of curiosity:

I had an Xperia Arc. My perception was that Sony released the kernel sources (including proprietary modules and everything else which is necessary to build a working custom kernel) relatively quickly and without anyone asking for it. Has this policy changed, did they just forget in case of the Xperia SP/.254 kernel sources or did I just perceive this wrong?
[Xperia SP General] Siddhesh:
Finally Sony releases .254 kernel sources

GitHub may have derped.

Here is a diff between previous kernel sources and now :D

That's the most recent kernel source

https://github.com/uberlaggydarwin/sonystockkernelxperiasp
[Xperia SP General] sarkar1990:
So that means, the CM 10.1 kernel will be updated, right? :good:
[Xperia SP General] Siddhesh:
Yes :D
[Xperia SP General] adfad666:
Probably not, the kernel used for 10.1is not related to the Sony kernels as I ported the drivers to a newer kernel version. We already have any changes that may be in the 2.254 kernel and more. (I didn't notice any changes to the Sony drivers).
[Xperia SP General] uberlaggydarwin:
Won't rebase off this.

Finally had a chance to look at them as I got home from work only just before...

Just left my computer to push them today so didn't get a chance to check them but adfad666 is right and not much actual changes changed though which are useful for us.

Just some general CAF / kernel updates so not too important.

A panel driver was updated but I'm doubt we we will use it as our kernel is not based off stock.

Probably not. . Let's wait for 4.3 kernel from Sony as it will be worth rebasing off that :D ;)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ilgreco112:
xperia U didnt even had 4.1 so how can it have 4.3? also ST Ericsson has gone bankrupt before 4.2 so no device will get 4.2 or 4.3 officialy because it doesn't depend on Sony, only Qualcomm devices may have 4.3, if you really want latest updates don't buy OEM just get a Nexus phone

how possible that sp cannot get update but l and m can

please think before your post
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
I doubt it's official...Xperia E can't even run 4.1.2 normally not to mention 4.3! Same goes for xperia J and T. Their support period has ended and they most probably won't further support them...

but who knowa may get it later because it isn't mentioned that U will not get 4.3:confused:

I think developers in XDA can make it for our Xperia U because they already ported Jellybean 4.1.2 with no bugs..
[Xperia Z General] Warmo:
So i took a vid with my Z in an indoor enviroment and whilst it does have detail, smoothness it comes at the price of huge noise.

now i know this is a smartphone, but my previous phone, an HTC One S, did excellent shots even in indoor and poor light conditions.

i believe one answer to this might be the fact that HDR is hardcoded in staying on at all times. i believe this messes up with the exposure values and eases noise to make way in the vid.

i tried tinkering with the settings, best i found was to put exposure at -2 and iso at 100/200 but still the noise persisted.

do you have any tips/tricks to improve low light video?
[Xperia Z General] pandaball:
Do you have any proof to show HDR is enabled at all times? I'm finding it a bit hard to believe that HDR which is supposed to get more accurate colour intensities can let noise enter the video. I would say that compression is a more likely culprit than that, given that you tweaked the settings and still got noise. What say you?
[Xperia Z General] coolrevi:
I disagree with HDR being always on. I tested it with similar condition HDR off and on. HDR which looks like more exposure and is tweaked for low light videos. However the Noise is due to HDR failing to focus faster. In simple words HDR takes time to focus but give better results if your hand is firm and the video is slow mo. however you can uncheck HDR and change other settings like ISO and exposure you can get better results. (Video)
[Xperia Z General] Warmo:
"The new Sony Xperia Z flagship boasts a feature no other phone can brag with, and it is High Dynamic Range capture, but not only for still photography, but in videos as well.

The option is hardwired with the new Exmor RS sensor of Sony."

that last phrase is not exactly absolutely clear, but i assume that if it says "hardwired" it means "hardcoded" so to speak, and usually hardcoded means that it cannot be modified in anyway.

also, everytime i shoot a video i get the HDR tag right next to the timer on bottom-left side of the screen. and that little HDR tag remains even if i turn off the HDR function when in Photo mode.

i might be wrong of course and HDR can be disabled.

If HDR can be disabled please tell me how! I would really appreciate it!
[Xperia Z General] coolrevi:
It's simple. Open camera, video camera, hdr off, you can clearly make out that hdr is off as it reduces the color boost and exposure.

Because read reviews and it's not really samsung this happens all the time when it comes to products like this just like the apple mac book chargers there are numerous reviews saying they're fake.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tdgillihan:
Just got mine today. I saw that picture and comment you're talking about. First thing I did was look at the box... looks like I got the real one. Works well too, and charges, albeit a little slow when I'm watching on the TV. But it keeps up. I'll try turning on the fast charge option in Trickster app with Saber kernal and see if it makes a difference. Oh, and I ordered the one that was next higher in price from the one muqali ordered on Amazon. Like $24 I think.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tony yayo:
+1
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] XxLostSoulxX:
All fast charge is, is when you actually connect your phone to a USB port via PC it will allow it to charge like its in the AC wall so you won't have any USB capabilities of transferring files doesn't this so if you're connecting your phone to the adapter and charging it simultaneously through the wall its not going to affect the charge speed its going to be the same fast charge will have no effect

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ShimmyShimmin:
I am attempting to make my lock screen appear like the image posted below. This screenshot is actually of the home screen, not the lock screen.

The only lock-screen app I could find that allows widget overlap is "WidgetLocker". If there are others I could play around with, please let me know.

My current strategy is to add both "Dash Clock" and "Circle Battery Widget" to the WidgetLocker (WL) lock screen and attempting to align them via overlap. Unfortunately, it looks like WL only allows overlap via resizing - not by placing one widget on top of another. I think it is still possible, with enough tinkering, but it won't be easy.

One thing that might make this easier would be if I could

see

the grid when moving widgets on the lock screen. The settings for this app are pretty extensive and I can't find the option if it's there.

Any suggestions that might help me reproduce this lock screen are welcome. Thanks in advance!

When I first got my Wizard, I plugged it in through USB when ActiveSync installed, and right away the green wheel started spinning, no problems.

Now, after the hard reset:

I plug in my device... ActiveSync doesn't do anything. Stays grey.

Windows recognizes a "Windows Mobile device" but doesn't know what drivers to install, so it appears in the Device Manager as an unrecognized device.

This is the same on two different computers, two different USB cables, latest version of ActiveSync 4.1, upon which ActiveSync worked perfectly before the Hard Reset.

Tried removing all profiles in ActiveSync.

Un-installed and re-installed ActiveSync.

Removed the device from the Device Manager.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lastdeadmouse:
Ok, so I flashed cleanrom ex, and on reboot I got a security error.

I tried to get to recovery, but it wipes data and immediately reboots.

I've tried flashing the stock rom, but lg flash tool tells me it's the wrong device (now thinks it's a D802).

I've been trying to get into TWRP on scrosler and samsunggalaxystig's advice, first by repeatedly trying an adb reboot recovery, then by writing a batch script to do it repeatedly in order to catch it before it reboots.

Problem is, I don't know if I had already had ADB drivers installed on this computer for the G2 (had rooted while at work), and despite installing them more than once, I don't think the device actually has enough time to be recognized as I still have an unrecognized "g2" in device manager while TWRP is wiping.

Any ideas? Is there any way I can force the install of the ADB driver without having it connected for more than 20 seconds? Spitballing... would it be possible to actually flash a D802 image so I could then root, change the build.prop to D800, and then flash the D800 image?

I downloaded the zip and try flashing it like flash a recovery in flashify but that din't work and readed that zip flashing though twrp didn't work but renumber this video and though it would update my recovery to 2.7.1 but it was successful in doing so but when I got to recovery it was 2.7.0. That not the problem form there I tried to boot into my system. Then it turn off though that I passed power off instead but when turn my g2 back on I found that I had a security error show up then turn back off. So can someone help show me a tutorial on unbick or a way to remove error. Also I have the d800 and i have some idea without going though unbicking a hard factory rest or flasing twrp form there site in fastboot. Finally that lg mobile support tool say that im up to date. I think doing the autorec twrp recovery locked as my phones recovery like trying to flash a rom with a locked bootloader.
