[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
Does anyone else think that this is stupid. First I create a topic that the t has issues and decided to tell them about one of the experiences I had from sony customer support. It was horrible, they lied in front of my face because I told her the t has heat issues and she said this has not been reported. I then gave her 5 different topics on sony xperia forum and in the forum they said that they will report it. She says there are no reports about it. I then express how disgusted I was about this dangerous phone. And then they ban me. Then they send me an email about I said an xperia play had heat issues when I clearly said xperia t and in the email she said she telephoned me. WHAT? I have not given any number to sony. I urge everyone to not buy a sony phone. No wonder why they are bankrupt.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Torres77an:
Well I don't like Sony's customer service all that much either I've owned a couple of Xperia's and I've never enjoyed talking to them but on aanother

Note

Yes the Xperia T gets hot but to me that's not an issue it has over heat controls built-in so try not to worry so much about it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
I don't care the overheat control does not do anything and my phone smells like its going to burn the back off and the phone destroys sd cards. I thought overheat control would prevent this but it doesn't
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] claudio917:
Sony customer service in my opinion is horrible. My Xperia T worked perfectly for 5 months and then i got a screen with White dots issue. I sent it to the repair center and after 3 weeks i got it back with no accelerometer! I mean that the accelerometer was not detected by the phone and the screen was always vertical with some random rebooting. I sent it back to those idiots and after a week at the repair center they replaced the motherboard and now the screen turns black and doesn't turn on, it happens 4 or 5 times per day, forcing to soft reset the phone... It happens randomly and after flashing other firmwares and "repairing" with PC Companion i didn't solve the issue. I called Sony Xperia Care several times and i sent them an email asking for a new device and finally they told me that this time they'll give me a NEW device.

I mean maybe i got very unlucky but it's unbelievable that they f***** up with the repair twice!! We're talking about Sony, not an unknown chinese brand... I just want a working device! The T is a good phone according to me but i don't think i will buy another Xperia after this experience.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Torres77an:
Yeah that sounds a bit Extreme there might be an issue with your Xperia T.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
When your phone gets over 40c smell the back it smells like it is going to melt itself try it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] lunarjetman1:
The only time my Xperia t got hot was when trying cyanogenmod roms. I suggest you don't try them if your phone has issues anyway.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Torres77an:
Why are you quoting me ? I'm not the one with over heat issues my XT only gets hot after game play and other extensive tasks but it's not an issue.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] lunarjetman1:
Sorry, I meant to quote the post with 40c in it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
Either all xperia t's have overheating problem or just mine but whatever. I can get this f****r up to about 38c within 10 minutes of switching on. I will show you how it happens. First switch the phone on, then turn wifi and gps on only, auto brightness then click on the internet browser and browse some pages. This is with stock rom as I cannot unlock the bootloader. Try it it shows the heat problems with the phone and you will see. Sorry for swearing but no other way to describe it.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] BigD18t:
The only time i have had worries about my phone heating up was running either CM10.1 at one point, or Petres Rom when he change some stuff.

i never have issues normally, so i would say your phone is faulty, and possibly a few others out there, but it's certainly not a major issue with all T's
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mr_torture:
Just to add my few cents on this subject.

If by "overheating" you mean temperatures about 40 degrees, then I guess it is totally normal behavior, when doing some heavy tasks.

I am also using stock 4.1.2, and I'm not experiencing any abnormal overheating. Yes, sometimes it gets a little bit warmer when browsing the web with Chrome, but it is tolerable. For example, it gets about 40 degrees when I'm playing game for a long time, but never goes much higher than that. Just today I was playing Frontiers for a few hours, charging battery two times today already, and it never got hotter than 40-42 degrees.

Honestly, my last phone, Xperia Arc S, was getting much much hotter on heavy gaming than Xperia T gets now. So I'm not panicking about this at all. Either you're not used to this kind of phone behavior, or maybe your unit is faulty to some extent.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
I know 40 is pretty normal but getting it in 10 minutes of switching phone on is not
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] space_eyes:
Well I'm in the same boat in regards to supporting Sony. I feel that they have really let me down. Lack of support in updates and troubleshoot. sorry Sony, but you have hurt my feelings. Good bye
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
Actually my xperia play overclocked to 1.6ghz gets max 38 so how can an arc s with a lower clock speed get that hot with the same processor as the play
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mr_torture:
So, you're asking ME how? Ask Sony developers, and hardware manufacturers. Also, you got several threads in Arc forums about heating, so you can check them any time you want. Also, the point of my post is that every phone nowadays is having "heating" issue, as people describe it. I think there are "overheating" threads on 90% of Android devices, here on XDA. Tiny devices, packing powerful processors, with almost no cooling, ofcourse these will get hot with heavy overload. Now back on question, I don't have my Arc S anymore, but I remember that area where cpu is placed tends to be so warm that it's unpleasant holding your finger there. To repeat again, much much hotter than on T.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FaiselW:
It is just sony which is the problem. Xperia z1 people said was overheating it goes up to 50c! Galaxy note 3 and lg g2 never get to 50c and all have same processer, same ram (note 3 3gb ram) and they don't get to 50c. This is a lot of owners which have this problem
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mr_torture:
I don't know then. Maybe Sony is heating more than others. I can't really say since I never used any other Android device beside Sony. I know that there are dozens of similar threads on many other devices forums.

All in all, only thing that could make me go away from Sony, is lazy update policy. First with X10, then with Arc S, and now with T. My patience with Sony is coming close to point of no return. I would never switch Sony hardware+design for some other brand, but customer "care" is killing Sony, year after year.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] oddeceed:
different chip sets, hardware, command lines etc even if you think the chip set is the same as its labelled the same it could well be different its more complicated than that ... take the galaxy ace some CPU's i could get to overclock to 1.4GHz where as others would make 1.2 and alot wouldnt even make that (i have had 8 ace's myself and have modded around 30 for friends who just didnt like the samsung stock) just comparing clock speeds and things like that for example i have a pc with a single core GHz intel processor and a pc with a dual core intel processor at GHz (so that's equivalent of GHz) ..... on that the dual core should get hotter but it gets to around 25 and sits there almost no matter what i throw at it where as the 3.7 single core regularly reaches up to 45 when its just playing a song not even doing anything hard really ..... have tested this on xp, 7 and ubuntu all with the same results ..... going back to the mobile phone my arc s used to reach 42 with heavy use and my T reached around 38 so im not worried about the heat
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I do not agree. If I do what you described in one of your previous posts, my V will reach easily 40 C. Especially the GPS sensor is a relevant mA consumer. The power it consumes will be generating heat. The same happened when I was applying a new ROM, the first day the phone was unpleasant warm to hot.

But mine does not smell when hot. If your's does then that would be an easy case to demonstrate live to a customer service person, and the way how you write it, it seems this is easy to replicate. Then why do you bother with quarrelling with them on the net? What do you think, how many people come around a customer service every day with nothing more than a hot fart?

Unless you come up with some new aspects, I am not intending to write any more than that to the issue.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] mr_torture:
This.

Last night I was playing Kingdom Rush for a good two hours with no pause, and later I checked battery temp log, and it never crossed 40 degrees... And I definitely couldn't smell anything. :)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] oddeceed:
even over clocked [MENTION=4149147]1.8[/MENTION]9 my T doesnt get any hotter than my arc s ever did .... there is alot of things all crammed in a small space with NO cooling system implemented so its going to get fairly hot "heating issue" doe exist on other devices too its not just sony one of my friends has a htc one and that gets just as hot under the same work load .... she had the galaxy s4 prior to that and the thing fried itself .... its all to do with the amount of power the processor needs to do the task it is doing and the fact there is no cooling systems in these phones

---------- Post added at 10:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 AM ----------

back to this point .... if you are using your phone then it is perfectly normal in my experience ..... dont forget that in the first 10 minutes or so (depending on how much data you have stored on it) it is checking all the files etc to the search libary it has built to make sure it knows where everything is and whats still there and whats not etc etc ..... (this is put in simple terms and should not be quoted as wrong)

I've found lots of cool HD home screens for note 2.

Anytime that I set one as my home screen, it asks me to crop it and ends up being zoomed in.

Does anyone know how to make a picture be the entire home screen, like the stock home screens do?

Cheers

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CallOfHonor100:
Hey guyss

I am currently using RemPuzzle's latest ROM but the reason why i am posting it here is becoz it has been happening with all the ROMs that I have tried!

The phone works completely fine until the display is turned off for quite some time (put to sleep)! Then when ever I try to open it, it wont! The only way to make it work is by battery pull! I have tried flashing other ROMs but the same problem occurs with them. For now, I have selected in 'Screen Timeout' to 'never turn off'! But still it is very annoying me!

What I do when flashing the ROM: (CWM 5.0.2.0)

Wipe data/cache partition

Wipe cache partition

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Wipe boot

Wipe cahe

Wipe data

Wipe system

Flash ROM

Flash gapps (if necessary)

Flash CronMod

Flash CronMod dalvik cache wipe tool

Reboot system

Do tell me if im doing anything wrong!

Thnx in advance!
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stone. Cold:
I think the phone isn't functioning properly, you've done everything right :good:

But my best guess that it's the phone :rolleyes:

I've got a few tips, revert back to stock

Flash cwm revolutionary 4.0.1.4 and re install a custom ROM, it's what I've done every time to solve all my issues :good:

If my way doesn't work or solve any issues, then I'll try to give more advice in return, if others would like to aswell :)

Also if phone still reacts all weird, it's best if you take the phone to someone who can fix it up :good:

In any case i'll try and do my best ;)

Do you have a HTC buzz or a HTC bee? This is a deep sleep issue from the kernel. My and kylon had this issue with the htc bee.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CallOfHonor100:
Yep! I am sure it is HTC buzz!

Unrooted and rooted again! At first, i thought it had worked but...BAM...it hanged again!

I think I am not rooting correctly...=(

1. I wasnt able to S-ON my device after unrooting so I carried on...=/

2. After doing the revolutionary part, I wasnt able to install Android Bootloader Interface! It kept giving me the error that the hash of the file is missing or something! So I did something else. Now, when I go to cmd and write 'adb devices', it doesnt show my device! Although, when I write 'fastboot devices', it shows my device attached! (weird)

3. I flashed recovery with revolutionary so I reckon that I didnt had to do the unrevoked method...was i wrong??

Help appreciated...=)

But now there is something else!

I again unrooted my phone and rooted it again! This time, I did everything perfectly! The drivers, the unrevoked, everything right! But, I didnt flash ANYTHING!! I didnt flash cronmod or even a ROM! And it still hangs up!! =(

Is it possible that im rooting it wrong! Or it doesnt support sense? =/
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
Well this will only work if you have the correct ext partition on your sdcard, and I don't think root has anything to do with this. Have you ran an ruu yet? If not run one, if yes which one?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CallOfHonor100:
Oh DAMN! I completely forgot about the ext partition! =D

I made the partition long ago via recovery! I dont know what type of ext it is... =/

will removing the ext would solve the problem?

Which ext is the correct ext partition??

Menghapus file secara tidak sengaja adalah salah satu kecelakaan yang sering terjadi pada pengguna PC, dan biasa juga menimpa Pada pengguna Android. Biasanya kecelakaan ini bisa terjadi karena anda salah menghapus file, atau secara tidak sengaja terhapus oleh anak-anak yang tidak mengerti menggunakan PC ataupun perangkat Android.

Pada PC atau laptop Windows, fitur Recycle Bin masih bisa menyelamatkan data anda yang tidak sengaja terhapus. Kamu masih bisa mencari file Yang sudah terhapus di Recycle Bin, kemudian dengan mudah Kamu bisa me-restore file tersebut. Namun tidak berlaku untuk file yang berukuran besar di atas 5GB, maka file tersebut tidak akan masuk ke Recycle Bin terlebih dahulu, Windows akan menghapusnya secara permanen. Dan untuk mengembalikan file tersebut anda harus meng-instal software recovery seperti PandaRecovery dan sejenisnya.

Dumpster

Namun bagaimana jika kita secara tidak sengaja menghapus file photo, musik, apk, ataupun video di perangkat Android? Jawabannya adalah Aplikasi Dumpster, dimana aplikasi ini berfungsi seperti fitur Recycle Bin yang ada pada OS Windows.

[General Questions and Answers] adarshsosale:
I was just wondering what exactly were 4.4's minimum system requirements. Is it possible that a device with 512MB RAM can really run it or is it just a gimmick?
[General Questions and Answers] akarora121:
Ya hope so!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] Fantassy123:
I'm not sure that a lot of that technical data is released yet. If you are referring to older, legacy devices, then it's likely not possible to get those running KitKat, simply because the various drivers and hardware need to be compatible with one another. This was a major issue with older devices trying to run ICS, which needed hacks to run properly.
[General Questions and Answers] givemeaname:
Yes Android 4.4 was developed to support low-end devices.

look at:

hxxp://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/news/android-44-kitkat-supports-devices-running-just-512mb-of-ram-440357
[General Questions and Answers] manchasolar:
Well, if you look after Nexus S' forums, you'll see a lot of people working to port the Nexus 5's ROM or even compiling the KitKat sources to their devices. So, yes, it is possible using 512mb of RAM. The problems, instead, are all related to drivers' compatibilities.
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
i heard that its going to be supported for lower end devices, such as your 512mb of RAM
[General Questions and Answers] AlexX-DE:
Android 4.4 is designed to run fast, smooth, and responsively on a much broader range of devices than ever before — including on millions of entry-level devices around the world that have as little as 512MB RAM.

KitKat streamlines every major component to reduce memory use and introduces new APIs and tools to help you create innovative, responsive, memory-efficient applications.

OEMs building the next generation of Android devices can take advantage of targeted recommendations and options to run Android 4.4 efficiently, even on low-memory devices. Dalvik JIT code cache tuning, kernel samepage merging (KSM), swap to zRAM, and other optimizations help manage memory. New configuration options let OEMs tune out-of-memory levels for processes, set graphics cache sizes, control memory reclaim, and more.

In Android itself, changes across the system improve memory management and reduce memory footprint. Core system processes are trimmed to use less heap, and they now more aggressively protect system memory from apps consuming large amounts of RAM. When multiple services start at once — such as when network connectivity changes — Android now launches the services serially, in small groups, to avoid peak memory demands.
[General Questions and Answers] BigAznJimmy:
This thread may be old. But yes you can run KitKat on 512 MB RAM devices. I'm running KitKat on such a device. But I have to mention that it's also possible to run Android versions lower than 4.4 on low ram devices.

This is going to sound abit weird and im not sure if anybody has noticed but my N5 seems to be slower (connection) than my N4?

I used to get an avg of around 20mbps download and a ping of around 30-50ms on my N4

on my N5 i am getting 12mbps avg and 100ms ping?

I am on the same network Three (uk) who have DC-HSDPA and i have tested in the same area where i normally do, with full signal and i cant get any better than 12mbps on my N5

I've also noticed that on the N4 within the signal bars used to show an up and down arrow to indicate data activity and the H used to change into a H+ when data connection was active but on the N5 there are no indicators? The H stays as it is and there are no data activity indicators?

Would i be right in assuming that this is normal or has anybody else had a H+ signal on their N5? sorry for the confusing post.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] br0adband:
Go into the mobile network settings and verify the APN information is correct based on your carrier. If you still have your Nexus 4, take the SIM card from your Nexus 5 and put it in the 4, see if the network connectivity is as slow or works better. If it's slower then it could be some other issue; if it's fast like it should be, look at the APN info and write it down, put the SIM card back in the Nexus 5 and modify the APN info to match what the Nexus 4 was using.

Reboot it and that should get you up and functional with the proper speeds, more or less. If this doesn't help/work then you could have some other issues.

And yes, there's always the possibility your Nexus 5 has some hardware issues, it's always something to consider even in spite of it being pretty crappy if true.
