Hi,

I'm about to receive my Wizard soon, it's the 100 Model that Vodafone germany sells. Since I can not use a camera, and no provider hat the 110 model, I will try to remove the camera and get the back cover of a 110 model or a dummy. So my main questions are:

did anyone yet disassemble the wizard? Is it easy? pictures?

And which company sells a 110 version that I can get the back cover as service parts from? So far it seems Cingular has it as 8100, but I can't see anything on their site since one has to log in it seems...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
I'm confused.. if you don't want to use the camera, then why not just not use the camera? Or do you need it at work, and work has a "no camera phones" policy?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
exactly, guess I didn't make that clear enough, I'm not allowed to have a camera phone at work (and I don't want to switch devices all time).
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:

..did take theirs apart, at least a bit. There's even some images - but they're broken - and a bit of description on: http://www.howardforums.com/showpost.php?p=6298030&postcount=27

Here's one of the pictures...

But it doesn't show much with regard to taking the wizard apart :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
Thanks, that helped at least so far that I know about the screws to lose and how to open it... Will have to figure about the lens etc. when I have my hands on.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] heliosfa:
Before you go butchering a new device (which might cause problems the hardware complaining it is missing something), why not just try the rear cover from he other model before you remove the camera.

Another other option would be a small bit of plastic to secure over the hole in the covering using something like Bostick All Purpose. This would be removable if required.

One more thought is to buy the non-camera one from another network and unlock as required.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
Of course I will try first without removing anything... My guess though from pictures is, that the lens will protrude too much for the other cover to fit. I hope that the ccd is soldered directly to the pcb, while the lens is clipped on, that would myke it easy, and no "hardware" would be really missing. And it would be reversable as well. Have to see that when I got the device.

Believe me that I did a really good search for the 110 model, but I couldn't find it, only one was Cingular, where I would have to buy it for full price, compared to paying ~200 US$ for the subsidized one here...

Now I only need a way to get service parts from singular ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] X-man germ:
Your job sucks. I am glad I don't have that problem. Eventhough I don't use the camera very much, every now and then I do take a few.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
his employer may also not be satisfied with just having the cover over it (if it did fit).. as taking a picture would just be a cover-removal away ( okay, okay.. bunch of screws.. but you could leave those out and pretend there's no camera %) )
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
actually my job is quite cool, and I hate all those handy-cams... I have a digital SLR and if need be a small casio if I want to take pictures...

From my view the providers are responsible for the current situation, as they want to earn on those MMS messages...

I for my part just need a smartPHONE or pocketpcPHONE. And if we're really honest, those pictures taken with GSMs are mostly horrible ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
Most, yes... However.. S/E k750i/w800i, Nokia N9x-series, Samsung whatchamacallit... all have quite reasonable 2MP cameras, and better is coming up (with telescoping lens and all that, as can be seen on many of the very thin consumer cameras).

It's not just the providers - it's people as well.. I have a very nice DSC V-3 myself for my photography stuff, but I don't lug it with me as it's fairly big. But even if it were one of those thin cameras, I'd be lugging around both a phone -and- a camera. If I can have both in 1 device, then why not? That's the argument for a PDA with GSM as well, isn't it? Not having to carry around both a PDA and a phone ? :>
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
sure, true as well... of course there's always different views on that... I'm just referencing the *current* quality of the pictures, and without a optic zoom and a reasonable flash, they just don't work for me... and of course I like the all-in-one thing... though GPS would be more important to me ;) And I alos wonder, since everything is more or less modules these days, they could just (like with the HTC 100/110 or HP 6500/6900) make models with and without camera. From observing a bit, I think the need for phones without camera is quite big in enterprise environments...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
Well.. once upon a time, there was the SD card. With it came enough bus bandwidth and whatnot to create the SD I/O standard. You could buy a little camera SD I/O thing, plug it into your PDA/phone, and you had an added camera. GPS ? Ditto - GSM ? Yep. WiFi ? Absolutely. All at the same time? maybe not, but not impossible.

Problem is that you'd be stacking devices, which isn't very attractive ;)

Of course, on the manufacturer end, you can drop features from a 'high end' model and sell it as a 'lower end' model - like the WIZA100 and WIZA110 for camera/cameraless (or the other way around). But then there's the question of it actually being available to you ;)

I'm curious, though - if you knew that your employer doesn't allow camera phones, then why not get a PocketPC phone without the camera -other- than the Wizard?

( I assume they exist :x )
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] TauTau:
There's a few I know of. Currently I have a 9210 Nokia communicator, but I want to get away from "proprietary" systems (Windows seems to be more open in this case). The upcoming Sony-Ericsson M600 (?) seems to have the same problem. And then there's the HP 9500/9800 series, but those are a) expensive, since nearly no provider takes them in their program, and they have a 240x240 resolution, which also can make problems.

The HTC Wizard just is the perfect device for me, and obviously it even seems to exist in a version without camera ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] ZeBoxx:
TauTau - if you're still reading, check:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=244134#244134

For pictures of the device taken apart. And guess what? Looks like the camera is a module you can just 'unplug' :) Good luck!

[About XDA developers] [NUT]:
Hey guys... I hope some Admin will have the chance to look at this:

Every time I try to access the XDA wiki, I'm seeing an empty page... which is a crying shame from my point of view... This happens both when viewing from work as well as viewing from home... even when viewing it on my mobile this happens! I'm connecting to the world from The Netherlands... which has possibly the best IX connectivity in the world... but the wiki is unreachable :(

Who else has this issue? What can I do to fix my access?
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
I'm not have any issues with it, but I'll test out some things and get back to you.
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
Can you try now? The issue is that the [ and ] in your username are restricted characters in MediaWiki but not vBulletin. I've written a patch that should fix this by setting you a username based on your user ID, so please check to make sure this does work for you.
[About XDA developers] [NUT]:
:D

It looks a bit funny (My user ID + space and xda as username), but I can actually see the wiki now! :victory:

Good patch! :laugh:
[About XDA developers] bitpushr:
Yeah since [ and ] are restricted characters it kind of messes up the integration. I was just going to convert them to _ but in case someone registers that name on XDA (like _NUT_) we just use the userid in that case. So it is a bit confusing but should at least get you access!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntiDroid:
Hi

My camera isn't working anymore. It's crashing when I start it and apps like Instagram can't use it too (app returns to homescreen). I have a LOCKED Bootloader and Root permissions on .257 (4.2). I used Apps like Pimp my ROM.

I DO NOT have a TA backup. Is there a opportunity to fix it ? Maybe with a coming Sony update like 4.3 ?

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingOfTheLab:
You say you don't have a TA backup, however, the TA partition only gets wiped if you unlock bootloader, which you state you did not do, so that should not be a problem.

Did you try resetting your device? If that does not help it might simply be a hardware failure...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntiDroid:
I do have a basic knowledge but I had never heard things like TA Partition before i bought this phone. I thought the app had used somekind of way, which "breaks" the camera as well.

Other camera apps do not work too. Wiping the camera cache didnt work :| I think I'll reset the phone and flash 4.3 this evening

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] kutemustsmile:
settings have tranparent only framework-res.apk then again I do not know to fix it tranparent according to theme! hope of helping pro
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Fragmentos:
Here is the guide

The how to:

1. Decompile the framework-res.apk

2. navigate to the res>layouts>styles.xml and with notepad++ locate <style name="Theme"> and edit these lines:

change:

Code:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/background_dark</item>

to this

Code:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item>

then change:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark</item>

to this one to use a png for the background:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/backgroundftw</item>

or to this if you want to change the color:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@color/name of the color</item>

3. Locate <style name="Theme.Black" parent="@style/Theme">

and change this line:

Code:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/black</item>

to this:

Code:

<item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item>

then change:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@color/black</item>

with this if you are going to use a png:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/backgroundftw</item>

or to this if you want to change the color:

Code:

<item name="windowBackground">@color/the name of the color</item>

4a. If you are using a png, Create a 480x800 png , name it "backgroundftw" and place it in drawable-hdpi folder

4b. If you are using a color, you need to look in the res>values>colors xml to see if the color you are wanting to use is defined. If its not defined, just copy any of the lines in there and add it. So if you wanted hot pink you would copy an existing line in the colors xml and change it.

Example:

existing line: <color name="white">#ffffffff</color>

copy it and make your change to hot pink:

<color name="pink">#ff00ff</color>

5. Recompile and enjoy.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Sahaab:
okay first this jader13254's framework is not transparent ;)

secondly it is quite easy i will tell u it in a second

---------- Post added at 12:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------

okay so try this

lets hope this works

decompile framework-res and navigate to /res/values

and open styles.xml

then search for Theme.devicedefault

and under it paste this

<item name="backgroundDimAmount">0.6</item>
<item name="semcWindowShowGlobalAppBackground">true</item>

then recompile and sign

if its still not good enuf

add the same to Theme.Holo

I also opened up the phone to see if anything was physically busted but nothing. Then when I want out of my way re-format my microSD card on my computer (formatted in FAT32) and on my phone and it still didn't work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ThattOneKiddMichael:
This weekend I manged to leave my included Note III Micro USB B 3.0 charger at a friends. I didn't think it was a big deal because I knew I had plenty of micro USB 2.0 Cables I could use in the meantime as they are supposedly backwards compatible.

I was home watching football for most of the day yesterday. The phone charged all day yesterday but I don't remember it ever getting as high as 45%. I didn't get worried until last night when I looked closely and realized the percentage was declining as I used and charged it.

When I went to sleep at about 12:30am I was at 9%. My WiFi and 4Glte were both off and I wok up at 5:30 am to find my phone at 63% only after 5 hours. This is the same charger I used with my Samsung Galaxy S3 just over a week ago til I got this. Why isn't it charging. I'm afraid I'm harming my battery somehow. That's why I'm writing this at 5:45 am instead of sleeping. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

P.S. In the 10 minutes it's taken me to write out this thread my battery has declined to 62. (Still on charger)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DWebber18:
I had a usb2.0 cable plugged in in my car and I went skiing and streamed music and did the same while plugged in on the way home. I don't know if the cable just slowed battery usage or not but it was plugged in for 2 hours on the way home and I still lost like 5% while plugged in. I bought a USB3.0 cable off Amazon and it works well in my car, not as fast as plugged in to the wall charger but much better than 2.0
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] ThattOneKiddMichael:
I understand that 3.0 will be faster but this is horrendous. It's now 8 hours since I plugged it in and I'm at 74%. And it's plugged in to a wall adapter not a computer or car. Haven't even had this phone for two weeks. Samsung you're killing me here.

Not sure. My phone charges the same on both 2 and 3. I know data transfer is faster on 3. I don't think charging is.
