Well it's waterproof, but this doesn't mean that your phones changes Gravity and pushes away the water from it. :)

Water has to vaporize or fall off so it won't work perfectly just after taking the phone out of water.

[Xperia Z1 General] Hanozy:
Yeah, I just thought that the water couldn't pass the exterior of the phone but I was wrong.
[Xperia Z1 General] ghostman2:
In the manual says that after put into water you have to wait 3 hours until water vaporize completely, so its very normal....
[Xperia Z1 General] Steve_max:
If the microphone and speakers were completely sealed, they would be useless. That's just physics, you lose most of the sound when you go from air to a solid layer, and then to air again. The waves need to stay on the same medium to have good propagation, so, you can't have a physical layer between you and the speaker. In other words, a waterproof phone speaker is very, very hard to do, and impossible to do on a thin shell. You shouldn't use the speaker and microphone for a few hours after submerging the phone, they won't perform very well.
[Xperia Z1 General] yummyxyz:
out of curiosity, how do they actually make the speaker/microphone waterproof?
[Xperia Z1 General] JuicyBrah:
The speaker probably has a water resistent membrane. The microphone jack is probably gold coated.
[Xperia Z1 General] Hani88:
yeah happened with mine too.. I was worry but everything back to normal after that
[Xperia Z1 General] Hanozy:
Thanks everybody for your answers, I appreciate it.

yop sony should solve tht issue

Itz also happens in my z2 but nothng wrng it recovers withn 30min....
[Xperia Z1 General] nikc0069:
It is indeed a membrane over the speakers and mic. It keeps that water out but I believe it is acoustically transparent when dry. The headphone jack has a seal that gets pushed down to when headphones are inserted. So never insert headphones whilst still wet.

Hello guys :)

I got my P600UE with mail recently and looking for a way to somehow get the value of my promotion code transferred to EU. Is it even possible, maybe with a trade?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] karank6:
Well, google won't let u do that. I bought the p600 while on holiday in the US. The easiest thing to do is, create a new google account, with a US address, without any payment options. Add your gift card to that account and make the purchases. The device works perfectly well juggling with different google accounts.

[Micromax A116] madpest:
I want to know how you can make an app permanent ie; it should not be uninstalled by anyone. I have searched the forums and found that most of the people are suggesting to move the .apk file to /system/app folder using a root explorer. But my doubt is whether it will still remain there (as a system app) even after flashing a new ROM.

This will be really useful in case of security/anti-theft apps. Even if the thief factory resets and flashes a new ROM, the security app will still be there in your phone..

Can this be done, guys?
[Micromax A116] GroovyG:
Short answer: No

If you format both /data and /system all apps are gone for good.
[Micromax A116] rajneeshk:
Not possible bro.Generally All roms first formats your system and data partition before flashing theirselves.
[HTC One X] dimi_dimi:
Hello,

when i run into bootloader I get a strange radio version listed: Radio-6.1204.104.16

It does not match the version in settings > About phone > Baseband version = 5.1204.167.31

Is that normal? I have never seen 6.* radios for HTC One X mentioned before... Why the versions do not match?

The signal is good and everything seems to work ok, but I got some huge problems with battery drain associated with WIFI, that is why I am wondering.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HouWWari:
I just bought a new S4 (packaged but open), it was with android 4.2.2.

I've used it for 2-3 hours, but suddenly no GSM signal. I rebooted but nothing.

Strangely, i can only use 3G, but no telephone calls, plus wifi disconnecting (every ~10min)

I checked the IMEI *#06# and I see number not like any other IMEI: "= / 27". I'm in the panic :crying:

and I also found that my phone was already rooted.

The first thing that I tried is a reset (Application-> Reset factory), but nothing.

I think I am not the first owner of this and the previous owner tried to unlocked: (

I installed the latest version of Cyanogenmod, nothing, still no signal, but I can use 3G and wifi (with disconnecting), and IMEI number is: "="

Finally I installed a stock rom I9505XXUEMKF_I9505OXXEMK3_I9505XXUEMKF_HOME.tar.md5, and:

-I can call and receive telephone call.

-When I makes a phone call, no one can hear me unless I turn on the speaker or I put the hand-free kit.

- Always cuts Wifi

- Still IMEI problem but now is: "= / 0 1"

Is there a possibility to solve those problems?

How do I know if there are hardware problems?

The problem is that i can't resend it to the seller. and it cost me 430 euro :crying:

You can get it to repair if u are in warranty. I doubt it. Go to download mode and take a look if ur knox still 0x0:

Follow this steps for next time before buy any samsung for internet:

1. Ask for the IMEI of the phone always. You can check the IMEI in professional websites that will tell ya if is blacklisted or stolen

2. Ask if is modified. Ask if this person can make a screenshot of the DOWNLOAD MODE (knox, custom) and status (Apps - Settings - More - About device)

3. Buy always with bill

4. If one phone is cheaper than other normally no is only coz is a second one hand. For 430 euros u could buy one new without problems

5. Ask for pics. Lot lot lot of pics about the phone.

6. I hope I helped u a lil bit and Im sorry for ur "new" phone :fingers-crossed:

Thank you for those advices, but it's too late now.

That mean that there is noway to resolve such problem ?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spamtrash:
you have three options:

1. EFS partition is corrupted. In this case, please use search button to find the corresponding thread.

2. You have the hardware fault. In that case, the service is your only option (warranty or paid)

3. the phone was stolen and IMEI was intentionally changed to avoid the network provider blockage. In that case, do not go to the service, as if they will manage to recover info that the phone was stolen, you'll be in problems bigger than faulty phone.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HouWWari:
Ok, i'll do that, i'm afraid to go in deeper problem :silly:

I don't know how to check if it has a hardware or software problem!?

I don't hope so, i just checked many site, and no one of theme says that my phone is stolen.

While waiting for other helps... I gonna check about "EFS partition is corrupted"...

hello

i'm new in this forum and I do not know many things but I would want to learn, in what I am mistaking why nobody answers to my questions :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] Robson:
hi

although i don't use an xda anymore as i've switched to using a mio a701; i still frequent this site as it's very helpful in most cases. for one of your posts:

=============

hello

I have bought from little a bt8000, I would want to know if it is possible to hear music and if i can , how i can do it .

i have a qtek 9000 italian .

=============

first question is if the bt8000 has a2dp support. a2dp is needed by the headset in order for you to listed to mp3s and the like. i take it the qtek9000 does have a2dp in place. with that the headset itself might be the problem. i use an itech clip s headset which has a2dp support. although the mio does not have this system yet (the manufacturer will be releasing a new rom upgrade for the mio which has push email and a2dp); i use an infinxx bluetooth adaptor. it's a simple little device which i plug in to the mio (with the aid of a 3.5mm to 2.5mm jack converter). the infinxx has a2dp; once paired with the itech i can then listen to the media player wirelessly. another option is to use a bluecon 35 adaptor; works similarly as the infinxx...but i've heard a lot of complaints in terms of compatibility with certain headsets. however; take note that the infinxx does not support the phone app. meaning; if my mio rings the media player gets muted BUT i can't take the call through the headset. the infinxx is only "one way"; output only. i can either take the call via the phone itself or via another headset which is paired with the mio. in this case i chose the latter. if the itech were paired with the infinxx AND the mio; if a call i can answer a call through the itech but the bond between the itech and the infinxx would be erased and i would have to pair them again.

that's just to give you an idea of what a2dp is; for your case you can start by checking the headset if it supports this system. if it does; settings in the qtek 9000's bluetooth should give you options for "hands free" AND "listen to media".

hope that helps

cheers

My black one mini has a grey beats logo. Im thinking the red logo versions will be later builds or manufactured in a different country. Doubt there will be any real differences in spec.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] free2hear:
hi guys,

system win7x64, moto g retail uk

in order to root i unlocked the bootloader from motorola page. successfully unlocked and rooted but...

problem nr 1 - from that day i was unable to access recovery by any means. every time i accessed it the withe screen with the motorola warning after unlocking came and nothing happened. i discovered this thread xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2585755 and was able to change the boot logo from that screen to a regular one, but the problem persisted. tried to solve the problem and came to this thread forum.developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037808. "There's a file in /system/etc/ called install_recovery.sh that may need to be deleted for the custom recovery to stick. You need root to remove it."

converted that install_recovery.sh to bak and rebooted.

problem nr 2 - no access to recovery. lost root privileges. no acess to bootloader. the phone does a full reboot everytime (goes on reding every android app).

tried to upload an new "install_recovery.sh" (the same but renamed) but have no privileges through airdroid.

any suggestions highly appreciated. can i push the file through adb or sanything else?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] free2hear:
after opening /system/etc/install-recovery.sh with notepad it reads like this. i guess it was changing the name from .sh to .bak that broke rooting

#!/system/bin/sh

# If you're implementing this in a custom kernel/firmware,

# I suggest you use a different script name, and add a service

# to launch it from init.rc

# Launches SuperSU in daemon mode only on Android 4.3+.

# Nothing will happen on 4.2.x or older, unless SELinux+Enforcing.

# If you want to force loading the daemon, use "--daemon" instead

/system/xbin/daemonsu --auto-daemon &

# Some apps like to run stuff from this script as well, that will

# obviously break root - in your code, just search this file

# for "install-recovery-2.sh", and if present, write there instead.

/system/etc/install-recovery-2.sh
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
install-recovery.sh is altered by superSU. You lost root as this file is required for root.

The original file does flash stock recovery on boot (or at least after an OTA AFAIK)

Sounds to me like your original problem of not accessing recovery was maybe due to you using the power button to select recovery option in bootloader rather than volume UP which is the button used to select an option.

No idea why you can't now get to the bootloader at all, just renaming that file would not cause that. I guess altering the boot logo has caused an unknown issue somehow.

Putting back the install-recovery.sh file won't help at all with not being able to boot to bootloader. In actual fact I find it hard to believe you can't get to the bootloader, as if the bootloader was messed up you wouldn't even be able to boot the phone.

Anyway - without root the only way to get the file back in place is to flash the file (ie as a flashable zip) from custom recovery AFAIK. ADB won't work as you can't push a file to /system without using 'insecure ADB' which needs a rooted device.

Maybe search XDA and see if there is some other key combination to access bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] free2hear:
Right. Already tried different forms of adb (mount, remount, su, push, but NADA). Didint go for the custom recovery because i'm noob and dunno what it is (yet) but i'll try to find out. If you can guide me i any direction i really appreciate :good:

Despite all this mess, at least i hope this knowledge serves the community.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
If you can't access bootloader and no longer rooted I don't think you are going to be able to flash a custom recovery anyway (custom recovery allows you to backup/restore entire device and flash ROMS).

Without bootloader access you are in a mess as can't access recovery and can't root.

You can't even reflash entire stock ROM inc recovery etc.

Basically unless you get bootloader access you are screwed AFAIK.

Hopefully someone else may have an idea.

As I mentioned before - search XDA and see if there are some button combos that may get you to bootloader rather than normal combos. Or any button combos to hard reset bootloader etc. It doesn't look good though.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] free2hear:

Thanks Scott.

The situation got a little worse. Now SO (w7x64 and x32 i have both) do not recognize moto g. I connect usb cable and it only charges.

- if i connect it while off it reboots (every time rebuilds dalvik cache)

- if i connect it while on it only charges but windows doesn't make any sound (nothing at device manager)

- if i connect usb cable (while in bootloder screen) windows recognizes it only as android adb but not as media player (drivers installed). when i do 'adb devices' nothing comes although the phone says usb connected.

at settings i have USB-MTP, USB debugging enabled.

i can power off and acess bootloader screen but at that screen if i choose any option it just cold reboots. no recovery acess, nada! no adb acess.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scott_doyland:
In bootloader ADB doesn't work by design. Its fastboot you need.

So do in bootloader

fastboot devices

When booted to android AND if you turn on USB debugging in dev options you can do

adb devices

So one you have 'fastboot devices' working, ie PC recognizes device, then you are OK as if need be you can even download and flash complete stock images for everything inc /system, recovery etc to get it back to how it was out of the box.
