MS has no consumer-based solution for what you're asking. For IT and OEMs, there are commandline tools to capture and deploy WIMs (Windows images). To go this route, first use DISM to capture (back-up) your current setup into a WIM file. Next, update the System (ESP) partition, then the WinRE partition with files from Win 8.1 boot disk. Finally, apply the captured WIM into the recovery partition, overwriting the old WIM. Commandline tools to do these are dism, reagentc, et al. All of the needed info are available on Technet. Start at the below link, and branch out as needed:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825072.aspx

The vastly easier (and faster, and more efficient) solution is to forgo the MS solution, and simply use a good image backup solution. I use TrueImage backup, and there are many others. You can back up directly to a USB storage device at any time, obviating the need for a recovery partition. Recovery is just a USB boot key away.

If opting for the latter, aside from reclaiming space from recovery partition (30GB), you can also reclaim space from the now-obsolete "driver" partition (20GB).

[Galaxy S 5 General] stanley08:
Sad that Indian prices are always that high. In my country (Nigeria) it is launching at around $655. Which is around 40K INR. I bought S2, S3, S4 and Note 3. But sadly i'm totally disappointed with S5, as my Note 3's build quality is really bad, which is a surprise because my other Samsung phones looked like BRAND NEW even after 4 to 5 months! The Note 3's chrome peeled off, S-Pen chrome is chipping off. Though the pricing here is fantastic... I am not buying Samsung again until they start to build it better. My 6 months old Note 3 looks 5 years old and i'm an extra careful person, the phone never dropped! Not once! Ever!

Will buy Z2 instead, because i think it's better than S5 in almost all aspects and it really is hard for me to look at the S5. The design is just 'upsetting', looks like a cheap grand or duos phone (Grand 2 actually looks better). Features are great however! But i guess not a good upgrade for a Note 3 user. My 2 cents! :D
[Galaxy S 5 General] kaifkhan97:
yes it priced to high .

Also we didn't got the lte version.

They said will launched lte version when all the market is lte capable

Hi,

I have a Z520e running MaximusHD for 4-5 months now, but last two weeks were quite difficult to me. All started with my phone random rebooting and sometimes it was just turned off. Later issue started to be more and more annoying reaching reboot after 3-4 minutes after screen off.

The thing is it never reboots while I'm using the phone (only when screen is off) and it never reboots when it's connected to a charger.

Since I was using ElementalX kernel I reflashed to stock but it didn't help I even tried to change Radio to 1.15 (originally 1.20). Since I thought it was ROM related I reflashed rom and firmware but it didn't help.

`

Now sometimes I have problem powering the phone I try pressing vol- + power, vol+ + power or both vol with power with charger connected or disconnected end eventually I manage to power it on but it's difficult to say which combination actually worked. Sometimes I have problems to get into recovery because phone just reboots. And sometimes charging led isn't lit even the phone is connected (of course when it won't power up).

I would thought it's a hardware problem and I even started to look for a new MoBo but one day after flashing 1.20 radio and stock kernel It was all ok, I run for around 4 days with no reboot so I thought now is a moment to try ElmentalX - it run for around 1 day with no problem, but after that everything came back.

I tried flashing also bulletproof and Bricked kernels - but I think I did something wrong cause it won't power up (black screen instead of boot logo with button leds lit).

I've also tried reflashing recovery and flashing kernel via fastboot - no help.

But if I manage to flash kernel, or just clearing dalvik - phone will power up, set everything again and it will work as long as I will use it - because when I turn off the screen it's hard to predict anything. Now most of the time I keep charging phone so it is working.

I even found a thing of HOX about reseting charging circuit by pressing both vol buttons and power for 2 min. Once I by doing that I managed to power on, when I had a problem doing that - but it didn't solve anything.

And in last_kmsg I found restart reason 0x776655AA which is kernel panic - but I didn't find anything helpful

Any ideas what can I try instead of changing mobo or trying stock rom - because I really want to stick to maximus and I was running several months without a problem ;/

It didn't help. I'm starting again to think maybe it's voltage control or something but hardware related. Curious is that I've managed to run smoothly for 3-4 days, but I'll start to look for another mobo.

[Fairphone 1] Gwerain:
I bought a JABRA bluetooth headset last week, and most of the time it works perfectly with my FairPhone (Android based). But when I've had it running for 5 hours it suddenly starts disconnecting and reconnecting in a silly loop every 5-15 seconds, regardless if it's currently in use or just in stand-by. It certainly gets very annoying when it starts behaving like this during phone calls.

The only way to get it working properly again is to restart the FairPhone, and following the restart it will work perfectly again for another 5 hours. Restarting the headset doesn't help if I don't restart the FairPhone, and if I restart the FairPhone I don't need to restart the headset to get it working properly again.

I don't have any other bluetooth equipment, so I can't check if it's only my JABRA headset that suffers from this problem.

WiFi is disabled, and GPS is disabled.

Hello guys,

I just got an Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i, on 4.0.4 ICS) and I want to install a custom rom to make better use of the device but I'm quite a newbie with android phones.

I searched around the net a bit and found the following roms:

Super Jelly Bean 8.0[JB 4.1.2

Android 4.3 Jelly Bean PAC-man ROM

[JB 4.3.1][CM10.2] LegacyXperia

[KitKat 4.4.1][CM11.0] LegacyXperia

Which one is the better solution? Has less impact in performance and overall is the better choice?

From what I understand Super Jelly Bean 8.0 is the better one.

I want to move apps that are installed on the phone's memory to the SD card. I used this guide but it doesn't move all the apps, only some that I downloaded on my phone. I suppose rooting would fix that problem too. Also can you download (and install) apps directly to the SD card?

Regarding rooting I found this.

Sorry if I made any mistake, please bare with me.

Thank you in advance! :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
First of all asking for the best rom is not allowed. Try some of them and find the best for your usage :)

For moving apps check out Link2SD :good:

For rooting use the program that you posted in the link and it'll work. But for installing a custom rom you have to unlock the bootloader to flash a custom kernel ;)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
read mihans very helpful post above :)

just to gettting know you: if u install a custom kernel (which all the 4 roms require) you dont have to root the phone as all of those kernels /roms come prerooted, so no need for errot, just for ics maybe. if u want to install some that roms:

- read b4 doing, like the installing process. & if u can get some friend whos a bit xperienced in this for help.

- unlock BL.

- flash custom kernel form rom.zip / or the one which is required

- install rom by cwm & use it for some days
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cyber_marco:
I see. I just asked to see what's more popular and overall better, like saying update 5 is better than update 4.

I downloaded Link2SD but I suppose it works only on rooted phones.

For installing the custom ROM, I should follow the instructions in its thread I presume.

Thanks again for your help.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cyber_marco:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihahn:
Okay ;)

I haven't found that option on my phone (nexus 4, stock android), but it may be there. But I've found some apps on google play to manage Sim card contacts and to call/text them etc. Maybe try an app in the playstore and it'll work :)

Hey Guys!

I've tried to install the newest pac-man rom on my girlfriends Xperia mini pro (sk17i with 4.0.4 stock rom).

After i had opened its bootloader i flashed its kernel with the kernel i found in the pac-man zip by flashtool. After that, in cwm i tried to install the zip file, but i get the following error message: "Error in /storage/sdcard0/pac_mango_4.4.alpha...zip (status 0). Installation aborted"

Please help me. What did i do wrong?

How can i install the rom properly?

Thx in advance!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cyber_marco:
Hi again, so I managed to unlock my bootloader using your guide, it was really helpful!

Then I went to flash the kernel of the phone using the Super Fusion kernel from here.

All went good with the flashing, no errors or bad blocks in the log file. But when I try to power up the phone to install the custom rom the phone shows a black screen.

I powered up the phone and kept pressing the down button. The led turned blue/cyan (it vibrated) and then it stays yellow.

Can you help me?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Attitude.SSJ:
Afaik superfusion was never built for mini pro... Choose a cm10 supporting kernel for mini pro...

Thanks for the help. Is this kernel compatible?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cyber_marco:
Finally I managed to solve my problems.

As it seems I was using the wrong version of the ROM I was trying to install. In the end all went as they should! :cool:

Mihahn you are a genius! The ROM works flawlessly, it's super fast!!! I can't believe that a 2011 phone can be this fast, great job man!!! :laugh:

I found only 2 problems, the Gallery app doesn't seem to work. Every time I click on it, it tries to open but then closes again. I guess that's not much of a problem as I can install a different one.

My other problem is with the mechanical keyboard. I managed to change from 2 different languages of writing (English and Greek) with the "globe" key but it seems that there is no auto-replace/capitalization/punctuate function. Is there a way to fix that? Also the brightness of the keys is a bit low, is it possible to increase the brightness?

Thanks again for your stupendous work, keep up! :good:

Hi there,

there are tools out there to lock your Windows when bluetooth connection to a device is lost and unlock when its established again.

That would be a nice feature for the Smartwatch (better than mobilephone) because its always with me.

I cant connect the watch via Bluetooth to the pc.

Any ideas how to do this.

Maybe we have a good app-developer here ;)

Thanks alot!!

I think he wants to lock a PC with windows...

you can't do this because it doesn't exist an app to conect both etc...
[Sony Smartwatch] painkillerde:
Yes thats what i mean. If the bluetooth connecton to the pc is lost (out of reach) it locks itself. Back to the pc it unlocks. There are tools for windows you can realize that with a mobile phone. But i often leave it at the desk. The watch is always with me.

The problem is i cant connect the watch to the pc.

Sorry if the first post was misleading.

Is there any possibility to get the watch connected to a pc. More is not needed to realize this.

Thx.
[Sony Smartwatch] Alahdal:
If you can't connect the watch to the PC, how a tool (if there is one) will know that the watch is connected and perform an action. Logically and programmatically, is impossible.

Secondly, why such watch should be connectable to a PC? it wasn't made for this purpose.
[Sony Smartwatch] painkillerde:
I see what you mean. But isnt xda a developer Forum too? Maybe MAYBE its possible to make an app that could make the watch connectable to a PC via bluetooth or the watch os itself.

Its just an idea - im not a developer and i dont know about what is possible and what is not. But its an android running on the watch and we are in a developer forum so why not!!

I would like this feature...
[Sony Smartwatch] badplanet:
Technically it should be possible but it may not be worth the effort. I think the Windows program would have to try to connect every minute or every 30 seconds and lock the screen if it cannot. Then keep scanning to unlock when it can connect.

That would be so cool! If only the watch worked with a computer.

[Sony Smartwatch] ffarber:
I love this idea, totally useful. Isn't the problem really on the watch side though? It will only pair with one device at a time (the phone) and then is no longer visible. On the PC side just being able to see the watch would trigger the unlock, no need to actually pair. I am probably missing something as I am not a developer.

Fred
[Sony Smartwatch] painkillerde:
Yes I also think something like a ping would be enough - but it seems the Lock/Unlock Software wants a paired device and the watch isn´t visible after pairing with the phone.

So it seems we have no option to get it work. :(
[Sony Smartwatch] ffarber:
Don't give up so fast. I think there might be a way...

How about if the unlock software would unlock the PC when the phone was connected but only if the watch was connected to the phone? That would probably take a small amount of coding on the Android side to inform the PC whether the watch were connected or not. This way both the phone and watch would have to be connected to their respective pairings. I think it still solves your problem of walking away from your desk and the phone which would lock the PC and when you brought the watch back the PC would unlock.

Do you think the PC lock software folks would be interested in such a scheme? Have you been in contact with them? This would work for all types of smartwatches with only coding done on the phone and PC.

Cheers,

Fred
[Sony Smartwatch] painkillerde:
Yeeeeehaaaaa

GOT IT :D

I give me the needed idea.

You need

Tasker + Secure Settings + your Mobile.

Mobile is connected via bluetooth to PC. Software locks on connection lost to mobile.

Now i made a task which disconnects the bluetooth connection to PC when connection to the watch is lost. -> PC locked

You may also use the notification message of the Smartwatch - try it later.

An other task reconnects the mobile to PC when watch reconnects to mobile. -> PC unlocks but it takes a little time (but for me the lock was the important thing).

If you take away your mobile it also locks the PC. What more do you want!!!!

I would say - Mission accomplished...good:

Now its time to play arround with tasker a little bit more :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Smartwatch] painkillerde:
Damn it was tricking me. the Phone reconnects after a few seconds so the lock timer has to be extrem short ... working on it

Any ideas how to prevent autoconnect to the Computer but stay paired?
[Sony Smartwatch] ffarber:
I am not sure what you mean. When does the phone reconnect when you don;t want it to? Seems like your idea should work. I am not a tasker user but are there any timer tasks built into it that would stop the unintended activity for a period of time?

Fred
