[Sony Xperia C] metalrules321:
Is anybody experiencing grey borders and two blue marks on the screen?? or anyother bugs ?? And screen flickering too ?
[Sony Xperia C] TacoNikky:
There is screen flickering when auto-brightness is on.

Also there is a silly bug. If no charge left in the battery (phone is off), you connect it to charger and it will not pass sony's colorful animation(if microsd card attached) You need to remove microsd card first, then press reset :(
[Sony Xperia C] metalrules321:
Hmmm....strange. The bugs dissapeared and all seems to be going A-okay for me.

But I donot seem to be experiencing the bugs you described. My SD card and bootanimation are both okay

hey can you please upload it on google drive..i am unable to download it from dev host :crying:
[Sony Xperia C] palimatix:
I'm not the owner of the upload, devstaff(above your post is), you can ask him to create a mirror..

I would advise you to update through the Sony Update Service though since there are few issues people reporting with flashing using the flashtool..
[Sony Xperia C] :
I can upload a copy to something other than google drive, as I have no space left. I'll put up a mirror in a hour.

Flashing issues. stuck at 0%!!

Guys xperia c(c2305-India) stuck at 0% with flashtool 9.13 while updating to new fw2.13. The only alternative left is the Sony companion but I want to use flashtool which is more convenient. Please help :crying:

Any help would be thankful.

You are trying it with usb debugging off. Go to developer settings and tick the usb debugging option there, then try flashing. Good luck.

[Sony Xperia C] Abby Oddie:
Sony is a my favorite phone. I like their applications. Now they release very first firmware update for Xperia C in form of 16.0.B.2.6 firmware and now Sony has rolled a new 16.0.B.2.13 firmware update for Xperia C which keeps Xperia C on same android 4.2.2 version, minor big fixing update only which changes build from 16.0.B.2.6 to 16.0.B.2.13. It's a good application.

i can't update my xperia c via sony update.. it keeps on showing error that server is down these days so,i tried flashing my phone by latest firmware 16.0.b.2.16 via flashtool but it won't show my placed firmware in firmware folder only x10 is shown... what can i do to flash it manually by flashtool... i have flashtool ver.9.0.16 and it also not showing drivers for xperia c.. although i've downloaded all of them in case of same variant found... but still stuck on firmware problem it's not showing there when i try to pick.
[Sony Xperia C] iSiddharth:
Nice Firmware

The new update is really good and provides a better experience than before. Providing more free RAM is a good release by SONY, Camera lags are reduced and also the focus is improved... Nice update :)

This thread is out of place + a dupe
[App Stores] michalsrb:
Hello,

I am writing mostly because of curiosity. I made an android game inspired by one DOS game I used to like when I was kid. With several added features, like online multiplayer, you can search for "Annelids" if you want to check. (I can't send links yet.)

After initial struggling it got more or less popular, but what is interesting:

About 25 % of all downloads come from Russia and only 4 % from USA. According to Google Play statistics, average in Arcade games is having 5 % from Russia and 13 % from USA. Downloads from other countries are close to the average values.

The game doesn't have Russian localization and until recently we didn't even have Russian translation of Google Play page. We didn't do any kind of promotions for Russia.

I am not complaining at all, but I wonder how could that happen. :laugh:

Any possible explanations?
[App Stores] Fyerwong:
That is to say, people in Russia like your game more. So,I think you can focus your market in Russia.
[App Stores] dillop:
What are the overall download numbers like? If its a new release with very few downloads, then its possible the % difference comes down to a single extended group of friends in Russia.
[App Stores] michalsrb:
The number are quite big now, bit over 100 000 downloads and over 24 000 is from Russia, second highest is Mexico with 7 000 (there I know why, we had some marketing in first phases there), then the others...

I am curious if there are some significant differences in the Google Play in different countries.

I find it hard to believe that there would be so different tastes in games in different countries. Do people in USA hate worms so much? :laugh:

One possible explanation to me is that there is lot of games enabled only for USA, so there is bigger competition. But I don't know why would anyone want to limit themselves so much.
[App Stores] Codengo:
Double Down on Russia

I can't explain why it's done so much better in Russia but I would double my efforts in Russia ASAP including localizing and submitting to the Yandex store there.
[App Stores] xjoey20x:
I would suggest to keep marketing in Russia then. They like your game.
[App Stores] tornadonoob:
US is 7 times more competitive than Russia. Here is why.

First of all, congratulations. Russia is not an easy market, it is very competitive, and your success shows you are doing things right.

However the number of downloads required for a game to make it to the top ranking in Russia and the US differ greatly. Of course ranking high means that you get maybe as many paid downloads (through advertising) as organic installs.

But to get to the top to be noticed by the top players you need the following number of daily installs:

Top 10 free, iPhone - sorry, dont have stats for Android: US - 17'161 Russia - 2362

Top 20 free US - 5509 Russia - 1256

Top 50 free US - 2712 Russia- 403

To get there you will have a CPI of $2-$3 probably (of course everyone wants a magic figure of $1,5 but only if your optimisation and traffic sources are perfect). If you have that budget, prepare to spend $34'000 for a few days because your competitors are going to be Candy Crush Saga by King.com, and they have money to keep paying to stay up there.
[App Stores] condu32d9:
This seems to be the decent answer to your question, michalsrb. You're lucky that you get people from Russia to download your game. They like it, so keep marketing on that location.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] chuko303:
Thought so, hey man since you flashed almost all international roms the ones that don't have aroma or manually install the international kernel, my question is even tho it flashes an international kernel while the rom installs it won't brick my note unless I boot up? After flashing rom right away uncheck reboot at the end of aroma(if any) then flash kernel/wifi>gps>bluetooth fix? All should be gravy?

I am on mk2 from fresh Odin and root. I've de bloated using the tool and I've removed extra VZW apk's that I don't need. Is there a minimal TW ROM that can be used with SS? It still seems like a lot of the Sammy gimmicks were left behind and I don't want to break the OS by deleting them. The only reason I went to mk2 is for the baseband and 4.3 update. I was already on me7 when I bought the phone.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gnubian:
There are only a few to choose from. Hyperdrive is the only one thats really made for SS. There are 2 others that can be installed via unpacking them in the backups folder of twrp and restoring them. Both seemed a little buggy on my phone after a bit but others have reported them as being stable.

As of today RBC Mobile in Canada now supports NFC payments with your Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4,

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rbc.mobile.android&hl=en

OK here is what they DONT TELL YOU!!

I called bell to ask if i have an NFC SIM. NO.

NO CANADIAN BELL USER HAS BEEN GIVEN AN NFC SIM WITH THEIR PHONE. YOU MUST GO TO BELL STORE TO GET A FREE SIM UPGRADE.

ALSO. the guy at bell said they have a notice from RBC telling users to go to:

http://www.rbcroyalbank.com/mobile/wallet/nfc-update/

and fill out the form, and an RBC agent will contact you and arrange a push update to your NFC SIM to enable RBC wallet to work.

I am running a SGS4 from bell running a 4.4.2 google edition rom (by danvdh), with build.prop edited back to my original model number from bell.

I just got back from the bell store and have my NFC sim installed. I have the new RBC app installed.

The new card option on first page of RBC app (seen in screenshots from RBC site) is not visible on my device.

I have filled out the form and am waiting for a call back, i imagine this push update will enable the missing button in RBC app.

will update with more information as it comes available.

ONE WEIRD THING...

since i installed my NFC SIM, my phone is telling me i have a voicemail that does not exist. wont go away.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grashoper:
Yeah!... I been at it for the last 4 hours... LOL Took an hour just to figure out weather or not my SIM Card was an NFC enabled card or not. According to the Bell website that is linked to the RBC app, all S4 phones were shipped with NFC cards. Then to find out from a Bell rep. after talking with 4 different people from *611 that could FINALLY speak proper English, that I had to swap out SIM. and then to find out teh provisioning had to be re sent to SIM card to enable the NFC (6Th call) THEN a call to RBC to find out others are having the same issue with the Wallet option not showing up. I was informed that there must be an issue with Googple Play and they way it is being distributed (maybe a permissions issue) or something to that effect. So, from trying to get a decent English speaking Bell rep, to actually finding somebody that was able to help, and at that, she had to spend at least 20 minutes reading literature that nobody was trained on, to getting in contact with RBC, too.. well.. still no working app the way it should be... me thinks it wasn't ready to be launched yet!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
my first call last night = informed white dude. read above.

told ya, NO phone has been shipped with NFC SIM. oh and NFC sims SAY NFC on them!

could you give more info on this :

why did you need to do this? did it actually do anything that you can tell?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
to get rid of the voicemail. have someone leave a message, then delete it.

fixed. called bell to find that out.

that only happened to you after the NFC switch? or when you got the NFC card. (it happened to me when i got the card)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grashoper:
When i got the card... about 2 minutes after I powered the phone back on... same deal here... Its gone after I received and deleted a voice mail.

Any updates?? Have you got it working?? Or for that matter, has ANYBODY gotten it to work??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djakereur:
I am desperately trying to get it work but RBC and Bell put the blame on each other.

I spent a good 40 minutes on the phone with Bell yesterday, the agent didn't even know at first what I was talking about. He, according to him, checked a box to enable NFC and said there was nothing much he could do, it's now in RBC's hand.

Guess what, RBC keeps saying I need to get a NFC SIM card. ....

Looks easier to get "Permit A 38"
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djakereur:
Update from RBC

The SIM version they provided you isn't supposed to be released until March so our system hasn't been configured to accept it yet. Bell has escalated the issue to the store to ensure no more are released.

They are sending me a new one, hopefully it's gonna work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
So even though I went to the store and got the first NFC card the guy had ever given out, mine is the version number 2 and it's too new to be used?

Hi Wizard experts,

for a couple of days, I've been experiencing error messages on my VPA cII telling me that there has been a problem with gwes.exe and asking me to report this to MS. I get these messages when closing many different programs.

Another (maybe related) problem is that after closing the "programs" applications, there is a window with an error message that there was a problem in the shell and it's trying to restart. Closing this window results in a reboot of the device.

I couldn't find anything useful in the forum search about this. Any ideas what might cause this?

I have the original Vodafone ROM, in case that makes any difference.
