[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diffstyle:
As everyone has replied, you should have READ THE FORUM's before just going in and unlocking your bootloader. Right now if you unlock the bootloader, your camera will be completely useless. And since your posting here and are asking for help, i'm positive you did not back up your T.A partition which includes all the DRM keys for your camera to be fully fictional. Bottom line it if you do not have your T.A partition, there is no way to get your camera functionality back until Sony's fixes this issue and from the looks for it on the Sony forums, i doubt it will be anytime soon. Sorry, your pretty much SOL =(. On the upside, now you know to read the forums before doing anything that will void your warranty =).

And no, there is still no way to fix it if there ever will be (My guess is that Sony might fix the unlock process, but I don;t think there will ever be a fix for already broken unlocked phones)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
Can I ask gently what all the developers missing than fix this issue? or what they need from Sony?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagrim1:
No expert on the issue myself, far from it, but source, documentation, anything. Apparently the device, hardware and software, is pretty heavily protected making it hell to reverse/figure out. Especially without any documentation or code to help.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harfot:
Camera is programmed into TA and spoiled when unlocking bootloader. Only Sony can program it in another way.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eclyptos:
So is a kind of security, if you touch it you will lost the warranty, or something like that. I hope will leak something from Sony a soon as is possible because I don't understand why is so restricted.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hudorba:
Where the solution???

Hi everyone!

I'm from Russia , bought informal unit of Hong Kong ...

because the curve warning on the forum when you unlock the bootloader was lost functionality of the camera ... (((

as a result of treatment in support of Sony in Russia , not in what they do not recognize the fact that in this case the recovery is not possible even a special brand programmer!!!

I 'm not talking about warranty repairs , as I understand it - Sony does not solve the problem even for a money!!!

My question is why such a silence, it's okay to sell unsuitable for repair device software error, for a lot of money ???

I know any device from Samsung, you can bring back to life from any state by the brand programmer, but it NOT Sony XPERIA Z1 ... :mad:

I'm new to UCCW and Zooper Widget. I'm trying to make text widgets for shortcuts to individual playlists within Google Play Music. I've successfully used these custom widgets to access other shortcuts and apps just fine, but as soon as I make the shortcut for a Play Music playlist it stops working.

Has anyone else tried this? Is there a workaround or possibly something I'm just doing wrong?

Hi there,

New the the whole xda wm5 thing and just getting my head round what I can and can't do with (so be prepared for some dumb questions from me). Here's my first 2:

I don't use outlook and all my email contacts are in thunderbird. Is there a way to import these to my xda without going through an outlook sync?

I only use the wlan when I'm at university. So far it connects fine and I can surf the web quite happily. I can also access my email (imap accounts) but, as yet can't send. This is because the uni network restricts functionality for basic connections. To send email, I need to establish a vpn connection. I've tried setting one up and telling it to connect but nothing happens. I've read on the forums about an issue that vpn is only supposed to be used for "work" connections - I think I set up my wlan connection to be a "connect to the internet" type. Does this mean that I cannot do what I'm trying to do - that is, connect to my uni wlan, establish a vpn connection, then use it to browse the web and send/receive email? Do I need to connect in 2 different ways to do what I want?

Thanks,

John
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Beeble:
Q1 - no idea, sry

Q2 - If i remember correctly, you can set your VPN to connect to "my work network" (or make a new network group, call it Uni or something) then you can make that (Uni) network connect to the net. this should allow you to passthrough the local network and onto the internet.

If you dont know where the options are, look in settings/connections/connections/advanced. and/or post again for more help.

Hope it works :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jko:
Cheers for the reply. I'll give that a go tomorrow.

Anyone any suggestions for the contacts import?

[LG Nitro HD] Truepeace:
Hi,

I flashed correctly CM10.1.3 stable, google apps for 4.2.2 and the wind kernel.

The camera app crashes sometimes saying "Unfortunately gallery has stopped".

I have to enter the app many times before it works again.

I searched the threads, some of them suggest using another camera app from the store like Camera JB+.

A user here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2052290&page=2 suggested flashing gapps-jb-picasa-20121011-signed.zip

I've read somewhere someone flashed the new camera app for 4.3 but I didn't read the details since a user replied that it didn't work.

I tried a fix on a youtube video for a samsung phone that comes on the top google searches but I don't know why it caused me the phone not starting the apps after booting so I unbricked and re rooted/flashed my phone.

What do you suggest me to do for a working camera?

Thanks.
[LG Nitro HD] NFleck:
Works fine for me with stock cm kernel
[LG Nitro HD] Flyview:
You must be using wind kernel 2.6. It's a known bug. Should work fine with 2.5.
[LG Nitro HD] Truepeace:
But the 2.5 version is not specific for my CM10.1 ROM, it is said to be for JB.

I tried using the Camera JB+ app but it had the same problem.

However, the "Camera ZOOM FX" app works flawlessly, never had any crash with it. So until I find a better fix, I'll stick with it.
[LG Optimus G Pro] bvzxa3:
I have been using this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=45953380&postcount=1

All the drivers are installed. After the program verifies the phone, it throws up the "LGUserCSTool.exe error". I'm rooted and unlocked and carrier unlocked but no matter what I try I cannot get past this. Uninstalled the B2C Client over and over again. every othjer method needs the AT&T E980 10g firmware but it takes 12 to 20 hours to download and keeps timing out. This is the most troublesome return to stock I have ever encountered. I may use the stock debloated rom but the baseband is kinda wonky. I just want to start over from regular stock. No where I have read has a valuable fix for this ridiculous error.

I have the AT&T E980. I saw they have other E980 kdz for other countries would that work if I flash the ATT E980 baseband to get my correct radio. The 10g rom is taking way too long to download and there are no other links because all point to the same download.

Any help is appreciated

Hey DustCrow you've got a whole bunch of threads started and some of the same questions posted to many ROM threads.

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] cmags:
Man I wish I were capable of cooking a ROM myself and stripping out the parts of other ROMs that work and compiling them together.

I'm on Sprint, xt897c CDMA, I've tried stock/rooted, CM10.1 stable, CM10.2 M snapshot, various CM10.x nightlies, and a couple of the latest PACman nightlies. Every single one of them has things working that others don't, and something not working that I can't live without:

Stock/rooted - need a good/easy way to wifi tether to my Nexus 7 tablet and laptop. Wifi tether app in the play store doesn't work like it does on other phones I've had. JB-style quick settings and notification widgets would be nice too, but mainly this is missing the wifi tether. I could live with it if it had that. However I really want to be running something CM-based...

CM10.1 - Everything runs great on the stable build - its fast, stable, has all the features I want, but there's a problem with the phone audio. My phone first and foremost needs a stable phone. There's a high-pitched whine/hiss in both the speaker and mic that makes phone calls annoy the far end, give me a headache, and makes speaker phone all but unusable. Its also there when recording videos and it stays with the video when its transferred off the phone.

CM10.2 - Same issue as above, plus it hangs on bootloader after the first reboot. Every version I've tried.

PACman - Phone calls sound great - no audio issues. All the features I want. But it's not stable. If I'm listening to music in Apollo and switch to Maps, Apollo just terminates (not FC, just closes like the memory manager killed it or something). Same thing with many other apps (Strava recording segments, etc.). Also the GPS lock is terrible or non-existent.

Ideally I'd like to solve the audio issue with CM10.1 or that and the reboot hang on 10.2. If anyone knows of fixes for these I'd be immensely grateful. I've seen others refer to them but no concrete confirmation or a fix mentioned...

/rant
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Try Carbon, try AOKP... try Slimbean. What else... PA? I can't think of any others which have been ported to our device.

Try other ROM's, and I can assure you the ROM's will get better with time - although it's odd you have a high pitched whine in CM but not PAC. I've heard some report that whine, and I was under the impression that all the aftermarket/custom ROM's suffered from that issue.

Either way, CM11 is shaping up to be pretty solid - although I have had a few random reboots, not sure what the issue there was. Mostly when using Google Music in airplane mode/no service areas.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
[MENTION=3363366]cmags[/MENTION]: As far as I was able to reproduce it, the high pitch whine/buzz was caused by MICBIAS CAPLESS Switch enabled and I've addressed this issue for CM-10.2 branch here: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/51949

I have no issues using speaker phone (I'm running cm-10.2 and cm-11.0 on my two Qs).

Regarding the noise in the high frequency range in camcorder recordings, I'm still not sure about the cause nor a solution for it. (I mean the pure noise, not the whine here).

Regarding the hang after first reboot, I'm not able to reproduce it and the logs from users I've seen so far were not very helpful.

I suspect that it may be caused by the timing of the mounting of internal partitions, but I'm not sure yet.

I'd welcome /proc/last_kmsg captured in recovery after such failed boot.

[Moto X Q&A] DoctorXdownz:
Hello. I'm having problems with my audio jack not playing music. When I connect my headphones, which are skullcandies, they play no sound out of the headphones but plays sound of the speakers for about a second. This is only happening with these headphones. They work perfectly on other devices and other headphones work perfectly on this phone. If I put these head phones in 1/2 way in so they haven't clicked yet, they work fine. About 3 days ago they worked fine. I thought if I updated to kitkat and wipe my phone they would work again, but no. Please help me, this is driving me nuts. Thanks in advance.

[General Questions and Answers] blackjack95129:
I have a problem pertaining to the storage space of my phone. I have an HTC One 32gb and I currently have about 5 gb of free space left. When I go into root explorer and check the space of my external sd card, it says it's only used up about about 15 gb. So my question is where is the rest of the space. I know the system takes up about 4-5 gb or something like that, but it shouldn't take up 17 gb! Also, there's a folder named "data" in my root storage, not the sd card folder, that takes up around 18 gb but I'm not sure what the files are inside. How do I free up more space on my phone? Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
