Dang. Unfortunately I don't have this offer.
[Xperia Z General] parfa10:
Do you know how to download them? I've redeemed the code and signed in on my account and now they're listed as media but how to put these on your phone?
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
Open the Playstation Mobile app on your phone, press the menu soft key and select 'Download list'. The games are available to install in that section.

If you don't have the Playstation Mobile app, you have to install it via the 'Let's start PSM' app that you should have preinstalled.

Ah it works, thank you! :)

I followed those steps but I don't see the games on my phone. Am I too late? (T-Mobile USA varient of Xperia Z in the USA)

Did you check in the Xperia Privilege app? You have to get a code from the app and redeem it before they will show up in the list.
[Xperia Z General] PR0XIDIAN:
Hmm. Not on my phone. The T-Mobile Xperia Z is the C6606 and it doesn't have an app called "xperia Privlege". Guess I'm sitting this promotion out haha. EDIT: after a quick search I found it on the play store here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sony.gsmguxmk.xperiaprivilege2012&hl=en got my free games.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arc209:
I am a noob and tried to sim unlock my HTC one from Sprint and really messed things up, I erased the OS and no longer have TWRP access.

Let me start from the beginning, I have an HTC One (M7) by Sprint. I wanted to sim unlock it so I could use it with another carrier. I successfully unlocked the boot loader through htcdev. I then successfully rooted the device. Then I was stuck on trying to unlock the sim. I think I was unsuccessful because I had upgraded to Android 4.3, but not sure.

To make a long story short I kept messing with it and accidentally erased my OS while trying to use rumrunner. I had access to TWRP, which I had installed earlier, but as of today I no longer have access to TWRP, it just does not load anymore. I can still load into the boot loader usb section of my phone that’s about it.

I also relocked the boot loader because I read somewhere in another forum that I was supposed to do so.

So as of now my HTC one is Bootloader locked, S-ON, HBOOT 1.55.

ADB won’t recognize my HTC at all, I have another HTC (Different model) and ADB recognizes it so I know I have the drivers installed correctly, but it wont read the HTC One.

I tried using fastboot to flash a new ROM, and TWRP recovery but no luck, it stops at bootloader (Signature verify fail). So I can’t even push anything to the phone.

Can anyone please help? If you need anymore info please let me know.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fadimanansala@gmail.com:
You have to unlock the bootloader again, flash twrp recovery then sideload a rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
+1 on the unlock

and get the recovery specifically for SPRINT, it's different than the GSM HTC One, you'll also have to flash a "close to stock" ROM to be able to use the SIM unlock code. no need to be locked!

and remember to get a close-to-stock ROM for SPRINT!!!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] MysteryE:
I'm fed up with this slimy plasticky battery door that come with note2.

I'm looking for a soft touch matte finish battery door. Perhaps something similar to Nexus 7 2013 or Nexus 5.

At first I was interested in leather one (as there is a thread for that). Looks like a Note 3 and have better grip. But the again I just dont like the leather look. I prefer a simple soft touch finish that wont left many fingerprints.

Does anyone know this?

I've been searching around but no luck or probably just my pretty bad luck..

I don't like the leather look. and, yes, I already checked that thread over and over again. If I really want a leather case, I won't create a new thread like this...

What I'm looking for is the soft touch, not leather.

I just posted on a similar thread here about the Ringke Slim. Might be just what you're looking for (and no I don't work for them ha ha!)

Edit. Sorry this is a case and not a battery door. However it is very slim if that's your reason for looking.

Where you get it i am also want to install it
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] waczze:
Carbon-like back cover

How about Carbon Backcover like this? Not as plasticky as the original. However, it's not too soft I guess, just enough for comfortable gripping and exclusive feeling instead of plasticky thing.

any idea for this problem, or i have to change a new one in o2 shop?

by the way, can i change a new one in bath o2 retail shop, as i bought the phone in bristol ten days ago?

thanks a lot

There's a thread on here about Activesync 4.0/4.1 not working over USB. It's usually a firewall/network manager issue. I don't know how to post links here so sorry, try searching the threads for activesync (and 'resolved').

Ihave the same problem and I still can't fix it. Microsoft are involved and are working on it.

Sygate seemed to be the cuplrit

I just turned off Sygate Personal Firewall and it sync'ed straight away.

I think I'll try and reconmnect it with Sygate up now that it has done it, but if that doesn't work, I'll either reconfigure Sygate or turn it off when I want to sync (I'm only sync'ing music on this PC).

[Nexus 5 General] OneChance:
I just wanted to let you guys know my situation.

I have had problems with the build quality! I got my phone from Carphone Warehouse (UK) on Friday, I noticed a dead pixel and that the vibration was really loud (sounded cheap) so I took it back, the 2nd one I got the power button rattled like mad, I swapped it again and the same thing is happening with the power button. I am sick of it now and although the software is superb I cannot deal with the build quality. I'm now on the hunt for a different phone.
[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:
Cool story bro if your letting a freaking button keep u from keeping a phone then idk what to tell u
[Nexus 5 General] aaron.bufc:
My power button makes a little noise too...but only when I shake the phone. Which really isn't a problem for me.
[Nexus 5 General] Docavelli:
Sorry to hear man. While I'm sure your not the only person that will have this issue, I'm equally certain most will be just fine.
[Nexus 5 General] alangrig:
You get what you pay for. Really sad. Same issues as N4.
[Nexus 5 General] MLAM:
I can imagine it being annoying but lets not forget the iPhone 5s has many reports of loose/rattly power buttons too and they cost double of what the Nexus 5 costs.

Not making excuses for LG/Google but even Apple isn't immune to this.
[Nexus 5 General] umesswitme:
Recently I even saw an article about the Note 3 having a loose or crooked home button. In all reality nothing is perfect, there is a margin of error allowed for every phone that comes off of the line that's just how it goes.
[Nexus 5 General] Batfink33:
I don't think the build quality is the best, it feels quite cheap and feels as if it could break easily. The Gorilla Glass 3 feels amazing to touch though!
[Nexus 5 General] CADude:
And that's why I wait for the problems to iron themselves out before I order a new phone.
[Nexus 5 General] hpsauce37:
power button is fine on mine however the volume button edges are razor sharp and seem quite rough.

Anyone else have this?
[Nexus 5 General] ragnarok_:
nexus 4 first releases had issues with the buzz noise in the ear piece. risks of being a pioneer user for the phone? At least you can freely get it replaced for now. after I RMA'd, I received one with perfect build quality. Keep trying!
[Nexus 5 General] hicks12:
Must be lucky then, no dead pixels here and any noticeable backlight bleed and the buttons are fine apart from being slighly rough on the sides. Cant fault the build quality here and I would say you're simply unlucky, 1 dead pixel is nothing in a display and for just a simple thing as the button rattling when you shake it... who shakes their phones?This reminds me of the silly thread in the N4 section where the autofocus for the camera caused a rattle when you shook the phone yet alot of people went OCD on it and were livid on such a small issue.

First part with the dead pixel I believe is fair but you replaced it and got one that didnt have a dead pixel so BQ doesnt sound like an issue...
[Nexus 5 General] force70:
Yep my note 3 home button was loose...but thats an $850 device i expect better than that. The nexus is dirt cheap so no biggie if something like that happens...

[Nexus 5 General] Kenneth131:
Just out of curiosity has anyone elses buttons rattle when you shake the phone. Im only asking as a point of reference. I know many will say it theirs doesn't but lets be honest Iv heard it a million times then I go to a store and try a a few and find they all do to some extent. It would be great to hear from those that have the phone and honestly,

hey if it rattles it rattles it will just be the way its made that results in a rattle. I would think it strange though that LG would put so much effort into making ceramic buttons for durability and longevity then not fit them properly on production.

so I would suggest this is probably normal although i never tried shaking the phones I had hands on today though,

The ones I had hands on did have a sharp edge to the buttons. Didn't bother me though its simply the type of material they are made from. Its not like it will cut off a digit and nice that it felt solid. It also had a nice click to them as well when using them.
[Nexus 5 General] eman3316@optonline.net:
When I get me N5, if the only issue it has is a rattling power button I will be more then ecstatic and consider that one hell of a device.
[Nexus 5 General] marcusva79:
I wouldnt care as long as dust doesnt get in the screen Im fine. HTC always had that issue. Plus I am getting a case so I am not worried.
[Nexus 5 General] MasterGGM:
Solution to your button problems:

Get a decent case, like the Spigen Neo Hybrid: HERE
[Nexus 5 General] abdel12345:
Get a case it should keep it from rattling. I think the phone is too good to return for a reason like that unless you wanna switch it for another one again u might get a betternone
[Nexus 5 General] Kenneth131:
Tbh in all the ones Iv held there isnt much to go wrong. Unless there is any noticeable pixel issues.

the only thing i foresee as being a common fault cry will be the back plate and any gaps between the edge of this and where it meets the phones frame because its secured in with clips around the backplate. So its logical to assume that since its not glued or screwed down at every point around the device there will be points that you would be able to get a nail under and bend/flex a bit more than other points.

However this is not a fault its just through the way its secured down.

Besides this and the sharp edge of the buttons there is really nothing else to be faulty on this. Earpiece and speaker all seems to be of good quality and screen is gorgeous.

Like everything else there will be the odd faulty one that slips though but im pretty surprised at how well this seems to be put together

[Nexus 5 General] alexktz:
Oh yeah never heard someone coming to me at the genus bar at work... "My iPhone rattles". Not once.
[Nexus 5 General] OneChance:
The rattle is not just when I shake it.... It is when I press anywhere on the top half of the screen, I would not mind if it was only when I rattled it.
[Nexus 5 General] Letitride:
Can you "elaborate" as to where the batch of N5 were made/manufactured and/or assembled, given it's designed by Google in partnership with LG?

Last time I checked, none of the current generation of mobile devices are made in the USA - even the iOS devices are made by the same vendors under contract to the Apple gang in China, AFAIK ... just saying .

Next, folks will start complaining about the lens/screen lifting by .0002 inch & barely met the laser measured specs ... similar to the Nexus 7 - 2012 model.

Frankly, I don't bother checking our 50" HDTV for 25 dead pixels, let alone one (1) dead one.

Solution - go to Amazon - order a Spigen Bumper Case w. Clear Screen Protector - mine has been shipped & will arrive on the same day as the N5 - slip that in and the buttons/rough edges will be covered & taken care of.

That's not fair. You're far enough away from that TV that you'll never even see them. On a mobile device, once you see a dead pixel you can't not see it. I got a nexus 7 with a dead pixel and had to send it back cause it drove me crazy.
