problem

sbdags, Thanks for the help but patch not decided my problem. I have this trouble on a stock and cm.

I mean 2 hours games OR 5-6 hours video.

In tests, the main consumer of the battery is the screen but if I turn on WiFi or any application, then it will be the main consumer. Most likely it's a defect.:crying:
[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
You could try android tuner 3c or the battery app to check your battery consumption etc.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
No still sounds about right. You won't get a lot of battery out of intensive gaming - depends on the game. I think you may be expecting too much.
[Asus Transformer TF701] samsonslatebook:
Excuse me if i'm not posting in the good thread. But could you tell me more about how the dock battery works?

Does using dock while none of the two batteries (tablet+dock) are at 100% charge could somehow reduce the autonomy of one of the two batteries?

Can the dock be used as a charger to fully charge the tablet?

Is there any way to know if the tablet is 100% charged without booting? And also for the dock ?

Thank for answering it could really be helpfull because i don't see any q/a talking about this.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Dock only starts charging the tab if the tab battery drops below 70%. Stops charging at 95% or so.

That's it. Not aware if anyone has figured out how to change the behaviour.
[Asus Transformer TF701] samsonslatebook:
Thank you for that, but if i charge the tablet or thz dock while the batterie is at 70% , is that bad for autonomy? Or should we charge only full cicles ( 15% to 100%?

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Charge it how you want. Modern batteries don't need full cycle charging anymore as far as I am aware.
[Asus Transformer TF701] TrekMD:
I have noticed the battery issue as well with short battery life but only when I have the Pad connected to a 5GHz WiFi signal. If I use the 2.5GHz the battery lasts a lot more time. The tablet also gets warm with the 5 and not with the 2.5. Has anyone else experienced this?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
Will test that.

Ok, I am trying to connect the ht820 stereo headset with my wizard but it will not play sound through the headset. I have the Cingular 2.08 Rom Loaded under bluetooth devices when I "refresh" it shows Headset and Handsfree. I have tried selecting both, and even a combination with no luck. The voice dial/phone functions of the headset work but not when I play music. I know the headset works because it plays music on my bluetooth laptop. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
press the right ear button, and it will sync the phone to the headset, and start playing the music through the headset.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] steveb155:
right button doesnt do anything when I press it. When I press left button it goes to voice speed dial.

Checked Bluetooth settings - Both Headset and Hands Free are Checked.

Any ideas?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] darkjedi:
wireless stereo needs to be enabled. does your ROM verson say 2.8.7.11? if not, you don't have A2DP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] steveb155:
hmm thats weird, during loadup OS reports 2.17 but i installed the 2.08 rom.??

Thanks for pointing that out to me though, I assumed since I installed the 2.08 rom it was running 2.08 wit a2dp.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] pzucchel:
i have 2.08 and the motoroma ht820 does work....somehow. I mean that i get evrw 20-50 secs interruptions for a fraction of a sec....the same to you? i tried various things (including Hard resets) but no success...

on 2.08, indeed, the bluetooth allows to have stereo headset, and the right earpad button does the rest.

Music through Bt ear bud

ok, i upgraded to new rom 2.17, this rom is excellent, battery life was beyond terrible before, now it is nothing short of OUTSTANDING... :lol:

Question, does this version support music through Bt earbud? I'd really like to have that feature... :roll:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Puckster:
Some clever people have worked out how to extract the files for a2dp and install them into wizards, prophets etc.

See the thread in the main Wizard forum here: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=48535 which direct to another post to download the files.

I have this working on my k-jam using wwe 1.16 rom and its great.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
Just, within the hour, received my Ultra. I have not yet even turned it on! I have it charging. I use at present the SGNote 3 and the difference in quality is immediate. I owned the original Xperia Z and the quality of that was simply superb, why I bought the Note 3 I have no idea however.

So pleased to again just hold a device that feels so well made and worth its value in terms of cost also being a flagship of that group. When I hold the Note 3 now...........The Note 3 is a superb phablet but simply lacks that feel of being a flag ship device. I am so pleased to hold the Ultra and experience that feeling of class. Of purchasing something worthy of my cash and its title.

I will post again latter when I have charged the Ultra and turned it on. I am praying I have made the right choice in changing over and the Sony will perform well without the software bugs I have with my Note 3?

Kind regards to one and all.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cameljockey1:
I came from a note 2 and never going back to samsung. It does everything that samsung does but better and the quality of the Zu is just amazing. I feel my money was well spent. Instead of buying a big piece of plastic.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
I can fully understand your sentiments.

My major gripe with Samsung is the materials used in the construction. The Note 3 is one of the most expensive phones on the market. In terms of Android I think it may well be THE most expensive? If other brands like HTC, Apple and Sony can produce top spec phones AND be constructed from quality materials, why cant Samsung. My Note 3 has plastic leather back with plastic pretend stitching along with plastic chrome sides etc? I am amazed Samsung didn't use cling film for the screen! Its a missed opportunity as the Note 3 when bug free works very well indeed.

Presentation has an awful lot to do with how we feel about what we own. For top price models I think it only reasonable to expect top quality materials and finish. Still, Samsung's loss and Sony's gain.

It is also very reassuring to own a device that is NOT region locked and to that end I am able to use it all over the globe unlike the Note 3 that I can only use within Europe! Don't set me off on that one.:eek:

Just waiting for them to charge then I can play..............I just have to start to act my age! Scrub that what an awful concept...yuk..:p

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Ex Note 2 user here too. I really was never bother by the plastic to be honest although holding the naked Ultra just feels amazing! Note 4 would have to be more than amazing for me to go back. Besides, knowing samsung they will add .18" again to its size to make it just short of 5.9 so it will take a few more generations to get to the Ultra size lol
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
I bought the Note 1 the day of release only to sell it some months later because I could not live with its pocket unfriendly size. I recall writing in my Amazon review that a phone that size will never sell in any numbers.....Talk about dropping a brick! The Note series has sold in the millions.

The quality of the Note 1 was far far better than my Note 3. I didn't purchase the Note 2 but understand the general build of the Note 2 was also superior to the Note 3? Enough of the past and the plastics.

I am very pleased with the quality of the screen and the speed of this appears to me just a smooth and fast as my note 3. I think the 3GB of RAM on the Note is needed to run the UI. The Sony is more vanilla in UI and I prefer that.

The colour scheme on the Sony is also beautiful. I prefer the Sony screen to the Samsung though this is choice, both screens are simply superb.

No sooner I turned the Sony on that it updated to 4.3 OS and I then spent some time downloading my apps etc.

This IS one beast of a phablet. I have zero idea how I am going to live with the size but I am going to make ever effort! The SBH52 will help so I don't have to keep taking the Ultra out of pockets. I had to laugh this afternoon as I cant find a single pair of trousers that this beastie will fit into.

I like the SBH52 even though it came without a charger and no instructions at all. Soon found what I wanted on the Sony site.

Early days to write much more. One tiny thing I have noticed is that Sony have made the icons smaller on the screen? I was surprised at that. I would have preferred larger icons.

I hope it proves reliable. I have it housed in a very nice real leather flip case holder. Holder has one small snag in that no space is cut out for the charging mini USB port so I have to remove the Ultra from the case in order to charge it or down load things to my PC. I will see if I can cut out a small space myself tomorrow.

So..........So far all good. Wonderful quality of materials, very different from the Samsung experience. Both good phablets in their own way.

Will be nice to be able to use my phone again in the rain etc.

Regards,

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
I recommend leaving your case as is.

=Cut out a space for the mag-dock. It charges slightly faster and it wont wear the O-rings out from opening and closing them a couple times perday.. that way it will continue to protect agains dust and water.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
Thank you for the kind and informative reply. There are oddly enough already cut outs for the dock. I have not purchased a dock though as I have read here that the phone does not fit a dock while still in its case only without a case? This would mean every time I need to charge the Ultra I would need to remove it from its cover.

Second point I need to connect my Ultra to my PC to update my documents etc. Is there another way, wifi for eg, of doing this?

I notice that inside the covers of my past Xperia Z that inside the tiny flaps was a white membrane. This was there to show if water had passed the flap and void the warranty? There is no such white membrane inside the flaps on the Ultra. is this correct?

Thanks for your help and support, I appreciate it.

Regards,

Ryland
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hamdogg:
You can get a cable that connects through the mag -dock. Don't need the actual dock.

You can use wifi direct to connect, but that will depend on your computer's hardware. Loads of apps and software to do this through IP address if you need. The only reason I use my Usb is to update firmware using an Ftp and flash tool.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I highly recommend a dock. You will be so sick of opening the USB port every time you're going to charge it, and you'll also wear the rubber seals out (i guess). It's also nice to dock it on the nightstand at night and watch tv shows, like it's a tiny Sony TV.

You can transfer files wirelessly by using an app. AirDroid is very good, but that's more of a full fledged manager that you can transfer big files, delete files, send SMS' and even navigate through the filesystem with. I installed Pushbullet last week and it's an amazing little app. It's so easy to send links, photos, files etc. to and from a computer or even another device. I highly recommend it.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
I was considering the Apple iPhone 5S. I know I know, going over to the 'dark side' :o The points that prevented me where price, its double the cost of the Ultra, not able to use any sort of expandable memory, not water resistant plus possibly the OS and UI? I wanted to try the newer Apple to see if I liked it any more than I did my first Apple. I have to write that the Apple is a quality product with quality back up. The packaging alone always pleases me when I purchase something Apple. I am just not an Apple OS fan.

Sony are getting there again. I think, I don't know, that some large companies like Sony sat on their laurels for too long and just depended on customer loyalty. Not possible to do that for many years. Pleased to see that Sony are moving in the right direction BUT still have a tad way to go.

A classic example of this is the SBH52. I purchased this with the Ultra. No instructions nor wall charger in the box? Even the packaging is rather cheap and cheerful. Apple just don't do that. Even the boxes Apple products come in is quality cardboard !! This is not a joke, all aspects of marketing need to be spot on to improve or even hold onto ones market place.

Remember HTC? Hardly see a single sale in this country today yet only 5 years ago it was nearly all HTC.

Apple have made a science out of how they sell and their market research is second to non plus their customer satisfaction and relations are superb. Of course there will always be the exception to any rule.

I like what Sony are doing. As I wrote above I think in some areas they have a way to go, they appear to be a getting there though. IF Sony can maintain this trend I think Sony will again start to show profits and the devices they produce will again reach the heights they did in the past.

Now Pioneer have ceased making TV's Sony and Panasonic make some top quality sets. Samsung and LG outsell them all BUT for how long?

Samsung is starting to slip with things like region lock on their phones. I for one will not purchase another Samsung until they drop this absurd behaviour.

I had to factory reset my Ultra last night after spending 12 hours setting it up just as I wanted it. The screen froze and no matter what I did it would not unfreeze. After turning the device on and off several times I was able to get into the settings and reset to factory settings. For around 30 minutes I thought it was going to have to be returned!:( The programme that caused the problem was 'talk back'.

One point that has concerned me is after a complete factory reset I noticed today that the files I had downloaded from my PC into the memory of the Ultra where STILL THERE! This is bad news as had I returned the Ultra those files would have been open to access. I was under the illusion that a factory reset would reset the phone back to a virgin state. This is not at all the case?

Very early days though and some teething problems can some times occur.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Ryland Johnson:
Hi. What an experience that was! No matter how hard I tried to explain the difference between water proof and water resistant some fellow posters just could not accept that their poor Xperia Z's where unsuitable for deep sea diving. The way Sony market the Xperia Z was, in my opinion, very poor. In the manual Sony made it clear with large diagrams that the Z could not be used in sea water nor swimming pool water YET their own advert had the Z being used in a bloomin swimming pool! :p

I gave up on that subject and just laughed at some of the things people did with their poor phones. Did you see the clips of them being cooked in chocolate and soup etc....Phone had more artificial intelligence than some owners had brains. I am still totally baffled as to why one would take any phone into a shower? How does one wash? To what aim would one need a phone while in the shower? Never mind.

Well folks after 4 days ownership and use I am so far a very happy bunny. Providing I understand I have purchased a phablet and not a tablet nor a mobile phone but the best of both worlds I am content. The SBH52 makes a very good companion device.

[Google Chromecast] AndroidUser12345678910:
Alright so ive been reading on some websites about how to cast sideloaded music to my Chrome Cast and the best answer seemed to be Avia, I dont have a problem paying for it but before I buy It id like to know what some of the details are...

1. Does it upload your music to the cloud and then stream it to the Chrome Cast from there?

2. Will it take up alot of my WiFi data?

3. Is it fast?

4. Does it have good sound quality?
[Google Chromecast] indiscriminant:
Avia works for both music and videos. It basically allows you to cast local media that is stored on your device, and it transmits it directly over your wifi network, not up to the cloud and back down.

I personally don't use it for music but for pictures/videos that I take on my phone, or movies that I have burned copies of. Quality is perfect and matches what I have on my phone.
[Google Chromecast] AndroidUser12345678910:
Alright thanks, I just wanted to know before I buy
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
No

It'll use as much as the bitrate of the selected file, sending to Chromecast, and Chromecast will need the same bitrate to receive, so unless your casting device is on a wired segment or separate AP, expect to to use 2x the bitrate of the file on your WiFi. See the links in my sig. :)

Not sure what you mean here. If you're wondering about the browsing speed, it maintains a media database so it's pretty quick unless you need to refresh the media database, which can take a while if you have a lot of media. They've been improving that part of the equation.

Browsing a remote DLNA source depends on the network and the source.

Audio quality is entirely dependent on your source. Avia does not transcode or convert your sources.

Note that RealPlayer Cloud is free and can also cast local nedia. It only requires upload to their cloud if the selected file is not Chromecast-compatible (whereas Avia will tell you that it's not compatible and not do anything with it).

Hi Everyone,

Recently I've installed an app on my SGS3 device and during the installation I was presented with a prompt from Google asking if I'd like them to monitor the app for suspicious activity. I accidentally selected yes, I actually don't want them too. This app is designed to monitor activity on my phone so obviously Google sees it as suss. The data that is meant to be transmitted from this app is not reaching the Web Interface I have to view it so I believe Google may be blocking the app. When I installed this app on my SGS4 I was never presented with this prompt and it allowed me to install it fine, the data that is being transmitted is successfully reaching the web interface.

Does anyone know the prompt I'm talking about? If so do you know how to stop it from monitoring the app? I've tried reinstallation, it just reinstalls without prompting me again.
