[LG Optimus 4X HD] Pawelss:
Thanks for your suggestion, I'll try it once I'm home.

No. As stated in the first post, I did in fact unlock the bootloader. I also confirmed it in the secret menu and it said "Unlock" which as I presume means the bootloader is unlocked.

No, there's no reason for me to laugh :P the secret menu confirmed it too.

Thanks for your replies, I hope it works :)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Rudjgaard:
I'm sorry i missed the first line, what got me was when you said you flashed recovery but it was still the same

The adb command to flash recovery is

1) adb reboot oem-unlock

2) fastboot flash recovery /path/toyour/recovery.img (not adb because you must use fastboot when in bootloader)
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Pawelss:
hey, thanks for your reply.

I assume the /path/toyour/recovery.img is a path on the phone, the thing is I cant copy it to the internal storage with adb for some odd, unknown reason (well the reason is the directory doesnt exist). I'll try to return to stock first, and I'll post the result.

thank you again

EDIT:

SOOO I managed to fix it and get it all to work :D the device boots up normally again :D thank you VERY much for all your kind help. I love you guys!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
Does anyone know how Sony are doing with sales of the Ultra? I have not managed to find anything on the net regarding this?

I just wondered how popular such a large phablet is?

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I have no idea. It could be 20, 100000 or 1 million. Take your guess.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
There are at least 4 in NZ, that I know of - a country of 4 +million, extrapolate that to the world population - that means that there should be about 8000 sold ;)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Leechoonhwee:
We'll never know because that will translate to how much tax they gonna pay lol...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] RodrigoFreijanes:
I wanna know it too.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Sony has released its numbers for Q3. They sold 10.7 million Xperia devices in Q3 which means they sold, and will sell around 40 million Xperia devices this year, which is a lot more than i thought myself. How many of those 40 millions are Ultras? I have no idea, but at least 1/40 should be Ultras, so 1 million (yes, i'm only speculating).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
I had no idea Sony mobile where selling in that sort of volumes. I have been keeping an eye on Samsung sales and knock all other mobiles way out of the ball park. Oddly enough when magazines mention and debate mobile sales only three main names even appear, Samsung, Apple and LG. HTC even Nokia have been trying hard to play catch up.

Blackberry, Nokia, Motorola and HTC have all been in dire straits this past few years.

Sony has also obviously pulled itself up by its shoes laces as they also saw a very large drop in sales. I am pleased to see Sony making headway again. If only Nokia had made Android phones. Now they never will.

Just imagine the size of the Samsung empire! Jeez its a behemoth of a company. Must be THE most successful electronics manufacturer of all times not to mention its heavy and light engineering divisions. Korea became what Japan once was as Japan became what the UK once was.

No prizes for guessing what the new leading countries are going to be.

Interesting.

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yeah, and Sony sold its VAIO division today. It's a sad day, but I think this will make Sony even better and they'll hopefully think twice before they do anything or think about releasing mediocre products. Sony should only release well engineered and designed products from now on, so they can get back to being the company they once were, that Steve Jobs admired and loved.

(Yes, Jobs looked up to Sony back in the day)

Sansui, Sanyo, Toshiba, Aiwa, Nakamichi, Pioneer, Rotel, Technics, Akai, Sony, Nagaoka. Denon JVC, Hitachi, Stax, AT, Sharp, Kenwood, TEAC, Onkyo, Marantz ............Many of those names in Hi-fi where legendary. Some have now disappeared all together.

Nakamichi made some of the greatest tape decks ever produced while Pioneer of old made some outstanding amplifiers as did Sansui. Sony AV multi channel audio amps.... So many now owned by other companies or gone for ever. Sony was one of the high street brands one could take for granted as being top of the range. Must add very expensive BUT one used to get what one paid for.

Sony has been one of the only brands to have their own high street shops as do B&O and Apple.

I have also been reading some reports today about Sony and the billions in sales they make every year yet some sections of the company still manage not to make a profit while others only make a few million in profit. Some years ago Sony nearly went under all together.

Rather pleased to see Sony now back on the right track. Sony have always been a niche market and never sold in massive numbers with regard to Hi-fi, Mobiles and TV's etc. Perhaps they diversified to much by purchasing all those Hollywood film companies?

I waffle, Sorry,

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Great post. I also just read that Sony is cutting loose its Ebook business. It's pretty obvious they're restructuring the company and are cutting loose everything that doesn't make them a profit. It makes perfect sense, and i support the decision. They should focus on a few things, and make them as good as possible, and not do everything half assed and hope for the best.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
although their ereader is good.

Down here they have a good chunk of the TV market,although I suspect Samsung is making inroads into it

Product identity and consumer understanding.

Grab a coffee, this could be a long post...........:p

Like most of us I spend a fair amount of time reading various reports, industry reviews and forum posts. There is an awful lot of confusion with regard to mobile devices.

When is a mobile phone a mobile phone and when is a tablet a tablet? Part of the sales problems with the in between range of devices is identity. Unofficially we have named them 'phablets'. This IS important. Far to many professional reviewers write about the size of over 5" screens as being to big and not mobile. I tend to agree with them. Hang on. I tend to agree with them when they review said device as a mobile phone. IF we could officially adopt an industry name and categorisation such as 'phablet' this would reduce customer confusion and also help with sales and customer satisfaction.

When the net book was introduced they initially came out with an 8" screen. Toshiba made them, started a whole new segment in the portable device section. Consumers then purchased them and moaned about the screen being too small! Next model came with a 9" then 10" then before we new it we where in the lap top range so customers reverted back to lap tops and the net book died.

Then came the ultra book with an Intel industry specification. That seems to have worked as the industry has kept to that specification thus there is zero identity crisis when one purchases an ultra book.

The Xperia Ultra et al are not true mobile phones. With this is mind such devices come under an awful lot of fire as reviewers compare such devices with, for example, the Apple 5S. rather absurd when one thinks about it BUT understandable because as yet the term 'phablet' is unofficial. it matters, identity matters to avoid wrong and negative comparison.

IF those who make 'phablets' call them 'phablets' and box them as 'phablets' the consumer can make a much more educated choice of purchase.

The Ultra and those of a similar size should be marketed as a new breed of device, their strengths should be highlighted and that way this constant comparison game wold stop. No one reviews a car with a motor bike! Tow different machines.

I would very much like to see an industry standard with regard to this situation and each device market under that criteria. So much criticism is aimed at the Ultra also Note and Mega etc as being too big as a mobile phone. They ARE! They are not too big if we call them what they are...vis,,,a phablet

A phablet is not a mobile phone nor a tablet so why should we not celebrate the difference and concentrate on our phablets strengths?

Words and correct identification matter. Sales and consumer opinion matter. To this end we could boost sales also have a greater customer level of satisfaction if we called out Ultra et al what it is and not what it is not. What is the problem with the large companies marketing their phablets as phablets?

Just another ramble.;)

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
I understand your point completely. May I suggest the following? Maybe sales are affected due to consumer confusion vis, its much to large and rather preposterous to be sold under the guess of a 'mobile phone' YET absolutely spot of size for a superb 'phablet'?

Second point. Sony went thin on the Ultra. To reduce those top and bottom large bezels would mean making the Ultra fatter. if we think on this for a while it is logic as the electronic components have to go some where. If we take pastry we start with a think lump not wide.as we roll it out it becomes thinner and bigger, same amount of pastry in both scenarios though, not my best analogy!:silly:

Hey. Much better example. The MPV, its not a car nor a mini van and isn't sold as either it has its own unique identity :)

Visit the sites of Phone manufactures and they separate, for obvious reason, a phablet from a mobile phone. Why not introduce that third option the phablet? Correct and accurate branding will help greatly with sales as we human being do love to compartmentalise things be it people, behaviours or purchases, all to do with out comfort zones.

Place an Apple iPhone 5S along side an Ultra, mega or Note3 et al and call them 'mobile phones' and............its just speaks for itself.

Now remove that possibility and introduce a new product category with the correct sales identification and you have a wonderful option. More than a mobile phone and more portable than a tablet, its a phablet..........away ya go..........:good:

IF only life was that simple eh?:eek:

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
LOL... love the logic!

---------- Post added at 06:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 AM ----------

Sony have their own finance company in Japan. makes tens of millions profit. Their manufacturing dep. don't make nearly as much. However their view is to "Be the brand of choice in the hearts and minds of our customers by delivering the best customer experience."

They said they didn't believe other electronic consumer companies did that, so they decided to stay in the market.

Interesting... I have had an excellent experience with their products... but not after sales service...

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RottenKitten:
Hi.

First of all, thanks to abhi922 for this great ROM. It is really light and cute.

I've read the thread in Development section, and I know how difficult it was to implement the lockscreens in this ROM, so it can be a little ironic that I want to disable them entirely, and even remove them to get a little more space. I can not find a way to disable them from the Simplicity options, it just let me choose between locks. It is possible to get rid of the them?

The other question is whether there is any way that the volume buttons do not wake up the screen. I use a lot the music player (PowerAmp), and I don't like having to turn off the screen every time I go up or low volume. I`ve read that PowerAmp don't do this, but in my case, it does.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hitesh2626:
For first,

First go to simplicity settings enable all 15 toggels

In that you will see Lock toggel just off it your lockscreen will get disabled .
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RottenKitten:
Yes, I have activated the toggle in the status bar. But is there anything more ... permanent? Do not know if it's normal, but I have to use the lockscreen toggle every time my phone restarts. It seems to work much like the "no lock" app: does not disable the lockscreen, only prevents it activates.

So I wanted to know if it is possible to get rid of the lockscreen, or is that Android simply does not allow it, and now I have to spend the rest of my life (or more like... phone life) inactivated it every time I turn on the phone. I know it is not that bad, but well... yep.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RottenKitten:
Ok, I think I've made it (at least disable screen wake from volume keys, for lockscreen I'm still using "no lock" until I find another way to get rid of it)..

I found this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1086526) and downloaded the file in the first post, but doesn't work for me. It seems that disabled lockscreen and avoid volume keys to wake up screen are not compatible. You have to choose one -_-

But reading the rest of the thread get me this idea and it works:

I've open /system/usr/keylayout with my root explorer and edited all the files that have VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN on them (in my case, bcm_headset.kl, qwerty.kl, sec_key.kl and sec_keypad.kl).

The thing is that you have to delete the word WAKE from each VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN that you find.

Mi lockscreen is desactivated (with "no lock" app) and my screen doesn't wake up anymore with the volume keys AT ALL :)

Thanks to DocRambone and aydc for the ideas. And to Hitesh2626 for your attention.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] philwire:
Hi guys, well after some googling i've tried a few roms here and there lately, tried and that... Now I would just like to install Jelly Bean 4.3 on my Nexus1 with the possibility to move my apps to my class10 sd card.

The Nexus one is rooted, blackrosed, but the power button is shot so I really need to limit the hard resets (battery out) cuz this one phone is really hard to do the battery trick on.

I have read a few howtos here and there, but is there a noob/fool proof howto somewhere, that covers everything from A to Z? I even tried kitkat, it went....well....but it froze/hung at least once per hour for the 2 days I had it.

thanks
[Ouya General] jlc403:
Hi everyone. One of the biggest things I use XBMC for is accessing my MLB TV premium subscription in HD on the TV as I don't have an xbox or other system to support it.

I know with an Apple TV that the resolution is perfect HD out to the TV. Is this the same for OUYA?

When I plug my S4 into the MHL cable, it's a decent picture, but certainly a much lower resolution than the XBMC feeds.

Does anyone have any feedback about the screen resolution using OUYA and at bat application.

Certainly I know I can continue to use XBMC and MLB on ouya, but I really love the native crash free setup.

Thanks,

Josh

try with changing the kernel...maybe another kernel can solve it...like next aosp ep4...there is also a beta kernel which is more stable then the version in OP ...just look in the last 5 pages or so for the download link...also repack it

One of the screenshots says that it's 4.3, and OP says it's 4.4

so i've just installed the rom. on the first boot. sdcard cannot be read and the camera forced closed when i open it.

but then i reboot to change to another room, flash aicp boot img and reboot. apparently my camera an sdcard problems is fixed.

update : immersive mode is not working

Ah ok. Sorry I thought you were still referring to the FC you had and not your battery issue. Nevermind.

Hope you can fix it with your new one x+ battery
[HTC One X] p70shooter:
Thanks for posting these, I went for the red one :) I've also got a favour to ask you, don't suppose you would post your repacked boot.img for lyapota's kernel. My computer is knackered so can't do it. Thank you kindly.
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
Ah sorry I'm using kernel lighter, so I don't have those repacked boot.img

Maybe someone else is so nice to post it here.

Don't know if I have time to repack one...
[HTC One X] p70shooter:
Was worth a try, thank you anyway. I'm on fauxs kernel and happy with it but everyone is saying how good lyapota's is. Grass is always greener and all that :)
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
Yeah faux is good too, haven't tried the new one though.

You could also try Next ep10 also intelliplug

Using it right now, cm11 boot.img inside, no need to repack. ;)

Will give that one a go soon. Let me know how you get on with it?

Do you use a different pixel density(dpi) ? What gapps did you flash?

Try slims gapps if you haven't, they have the multi dpi hack for playstore.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 PM ----------

I changed to faux's kernel at the end :) have had some strange reboots in this few hours using Next kernel.

But no real sleep of death, which I normally suffer from with it.
[HTC One X] zedmarcus:
Although it was a pleasure using this fantastic Rom I have now gone completely back to stock. My contract is up next week and a new HTC m8 is calling to me, so I will be selling my trusty HOX.

Thanks to the kind HOX community and I hope to see some of you in the future. Hopefully there will be a carbon Rom on the M8 before too long.

Cheers, ZM.
[HTC One X] arunpkrt:
Before I used 310 dpi but now I change to default 320 dpi. still problem exist. I always use slim gapps for all kitkat rom.
[HTC One X] p70shooter:
Thanks for letting me know, will stick with fauxs then. It is a great kernel just wish it went below 340 but doesn't seem to have a massive impact on battery tho.
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
have you wiped cache and Data from playstore? Maybe that helps. Normally with slims gapps I have no problems. For example candy crush has also this problem that you cannot update.

Yes. True, seems good on battery. Running 80% and 13hours now with 2h screen on time. With little game playing also(riptide gp2) ;)
[HTC One X] xb2:
Just flashed latest nightly 20140329 today and saw it's running quite smoothly so far.

Also, seems the landscape rotation issue in browser has been fixed in this release. Great work, Carbon Team!:good:
[HTC One X] cuzzo94:
is there a mirror for the last nightly?

From carbon website the download takes 9 hours :S 9kb/s
[HTC One X] Namautoenx:
I am using lastest nightly 2014..29.almost OK.but still 2 problems:

1/No SD card, it is still not Fixed (if using kenel followed with ROM).

2/the phone becomes to too hot,over 50 degree. (Using Faunx kenel #14,loading some apps from play store).

Anybody same me?
[HTC One X] p70shooter:
All running good here. Haven't tried ROM kernel been using fauxs kernel version 14 like you. Phone running cool and fast.
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
Had it also yesterday, just kept it loading over night, will check now if it's finished or aborted ;)

Normally though the speed is OK (100-150kbps for my connection), maybe they have issues with the server...

Still also using faux kernel #14 and it's really ok. No overheating, just a little warmth when playing for a longer period.

But I think will switch again to lyapota's kernel as I have slightly better battery with it.
[HTC One X] chihliouma:
Hi there, the d/l server is quite slow. Is it possible someone can offer the fast mirror for d/l for the lastest nightly ROM ? Thnaks.
[HTC One X] cuzzo94:
Ok i'll try again today. It's strange because I downloaded gapps from the same site at around 650kb/s

edit:nope, stil 9.6 kb/s for today's nightly too

It was too fast so it went down to 4,8kb/s lol
[HTC One X] JackIX:
Same here, besides the heat. All I did was flash the ROM and Gapps.

Any solutions ?
[HTC One X] cappuccina:
If you mean your problem with SD card, the solution is to read back a few pages.

...

Don't use kernel from rom zip.

Use custom kernel, Faux or lyapota's or Next kernel. Cm11/SlimKat boot.img will do also I think.
[HTC One X] JackIX:
I did read these posts but I didn't think it was the actual solution. Thanks.
