Stylus-lag

Hi!

I went through the downgrade-root-upgrad-process serveral times. Everything works fine except one very annoying thing: the stylus-input gets laggy a short time after boot. Finger is perfekt but stylus is not.

(I already asked here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52580564)

First I thought it has something to do with apps, but I couldn't find a guilty one. This behavior is found everywhere except actual stock rom. And that's unusable for several other reasons...

Does anyone have a clue?

hello i have qouestion..i want downgrade from jb to gb..it is ok?? which is better gb or jb?? please let me know as fast is possible.thanks.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chrissiong:
I think jb is better since it have more features than gb. Gb have good performance and battery life but it is kinda old for now:rolleyes:

Jb also can achieve better performance and many apps requires jb to work

any way to install google legacy keyboard? I'm pretty happy with the stock one but if I activate dot and comma key the spacebar became outragiously small (despite che enter and number key, enormous)... So:

- how to resize the spacebar?

I've been wondering for a while. I dropped my precious SL on tiles, carpets, roads from an average height of about a meter. But nothing has happened to the phone. Nothing. Has anyone ever dropped their phone, like, a lot?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ganesha27:
A few times

I've dropped my Xperia S a few times on the floor from a height of around 1.5 mts, but I've a Si Gel cover for better protection and it never switched off like other phones do when they fall.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] entermetallica:
Its more durable than a Nokia :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] ganesha27:
Yeah, it doesn't break as a coconut :p

Even Xperia U is strong enough to take the impact of falling from a 100kmph speeding bike which isn't possible with Nokia :p
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
I've dropped it at least five times from elbow height without any kind of protection. Even dropped it halfway down the stairs :D

The corners are a bit rough now but the screen is perfect.

I thought this was normal until my gf dropped her Gorilla Glass protected S3 from the same height and the screen actually cracked by the impact (it didn't fall face down).

I realize now that Sony's build quality is much superior :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] YuriBasescu:
Never,i have it attached to my neck. Impossible to fall.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] barbosa84:
lost my counts as my son always drop it. still, it never fails me. Thank you Sony for making such a durable device.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
I had a few drops from table height, once pretty violently when my girlfriend yanked at the charging cable (by accident of course). It was never enough to really damage the screen, but my screen has had a small crack ever since I bought it. I got it second hand (way back in september 2012 already) and I though the crack was just a hair under the screen protector, but after removing the protector a few months later it turned out to be a small crack.

What is more damaged is the USB cover, it got really loose after a year or so and a few weeks ago I just removed it. The USB port is very ugly now, but at least I don't have that cover flapping around anymore.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Devnull81:
Made for destruction

My kid constantly finds and try to destroy it. He have been trying to eat it, used it as a trowing toy and i have it without rubber protection.

Still works fine. Well designed phone :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] genecis:
The USB flap gets loose because there's an inner soft plastic part which is glued to the outer flap and it wears out over time...

I glued them back together using a strong adhesive and its good now, obviously not as good as the very rarely used HDMI flap, but its OK...

The only real problem I've had with this phone is the really low in-call volume...

---------- Post added at 03:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 PM ----------

Forgot to mention, the part below the illumination strip isn't very strong though... I know a guy who dropped his SL only once and that part was cracked pretty bad... luckily its not of much use ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] b0ngma01:
I have dropped so many times. I think more than 20 times L.O.L but all work fine :good:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] monivan:
Countless with my xperia S! There is one time i dropped it from chest height, and i tried to catch it, but push it downward instead. The phone screen landed on floor. My bro heard the impact came to see. I closed my eyes and pick it up. When i open my eyes, the screen.......not even a scratch and totally fine. It didn't even turn off or the battery fall off like nokia did xD
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] patrik123:
I dropped it more than 100 times, many times it landed on the screen but screen never broke. Now when i drop it i'm not even worried because i know nothing damaged ;).

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mharckk:
when i was using my XS i drop it countless times already, there was a time that when i was walking and then i dropped my XS i stepped on it and drag it, luckily the back is at the bottom and the camera was not affected :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] xperiauser1221:
Twice... Once really bad but the Silicone cover saved it..from about. 4.5ft
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Redstarr1:
I tried gluing it back with a pretty strong adhesive, but it didn't stick (adhesive was pretty old though) and it only made the soft plastic harder. The next phone I'm getting will ideally have wireless charging so I don't have to open that USB flap so often and it would also be nice if it were waterproof, I'm hoping the next Nexus will be waterproof.

Did anyone drop a Xperia S in water and still manage to save it?

Oh and true the in-call volume is so low, I have to ask people to say things again (looks really unprofessional when looking for a job, luckily I still managed to get one :p) and you can forget about calling from a busy street (I use my headphones in that case). It's too bad you can't test this when buying a new phone, and review sites seem to ignore call quality nowadays..

I did also experience extreme power drain after upgrading to KitKat. In my case it was media server that seemed to run constantly.

If removed my SD card the power consumption was normal but as soon as I put the SD card in the phone media server started to drain the battery really fast.

I have now formated the SD card in the phone and are putting things back and so far the power consumptiomn seems normal. :cyclops:

This happens only when the SD card is inserted, but all my music and photos are on it. With the SD card, the phone is pretty much useless now, as the battery lasts barely 4 hours in idle mode. This update is simply horrible.

hi there,

i was on HYD52ROM V2 for the Ascend P6.

I decided to do an upgrade to the KitKat Version of HYD52ROM. So i installed the TouchRecoveryInstaller-v1_01.apk and rebooted. I had the newest file of the Rom on my SD-Card. I wiped the phone and the dalvik also.

Then it said, that there is an error while installing the KitKat Rom.

I thought "no problem" - i had the old V2 on my sd card also.

Now only the bootscreen "Huawei Ascend" appears and nothing more. I can switch off the phone while hitting all the buttons but nothing more. Is there any possibility to get it back working?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axlastro:
Hi guys, I just sold my S3 LTE , as I cracked the screen and didn't want to repair it. I was looking for upgrade before that, so now the time has come.

I need a device that is a bit more rugged, not necessarily waterproof and so on... I read that the S4 is even more fragile though.

Anyway. I'd really love a high end device, so I don't have to upgrade it for the next 2 years.

I don't play games but do a lot of browsing, emailing and other work related stuff. I have good cameras so the camera on the phone just needs to be OK, but It should bebetter than the S3. I'm now using an iphone 5 and while it's a marelously well build and fast, I'm not quite sure I could deal with it's quirks. I've been on Android for almost 6 years, so you get what I mean.

I'm looking at :

LG G2 16GB

LG Nexus 5 16GB

Galaxy S4

Huaiwei Ascend P6

HTC ONE

Anything else you might recommend, except for Sony...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Havoc-X:
LG G2 - Very Good Choice

Nexus 5 - Awesome (but not the best camera)

S4 - Sucks

P6 - Friend has it, not bad, but battery life is terrible

HTC One - Awesome.

Also, look into the Xperia Z2, another good option for you.

Personally, i'd go with the new HTC one.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] axlastro:
I really like the One too, but can you give some more details why would you choose it. And with the new model just around the corner - I'm no sure. I'm interested in the N5 too, bu tI'm put off by the small-ish battery
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Havoc-X:
Friend of mine has the current One, played with it quite a bit. Its just everything i would want in a phone. Its really well made, fits very comfortably in your hand. I'm a fan of IPS LCD over AMOLED. Operations are much smoother and faster than Samsung. Blinkfeed is awesome (for me personally) and you have all the freedom of Android with a very good display incased in a very good body. Also i dont really need crap like airwave and air gesture, in fact, since 4.3 my smart stay barely works.

The One is just my personal choice, i think its the most balance between design, UI and performance. LG G2 isnt far behind. If you going to go with the One, u might as well wait for the new one. If you dont plan to get the new one, i'd probably go the G2 over the Old 1. The Snapdragon 800 will last u much longer than the 600 in the One (2013 edition) The G2 has IPS LCD as well and is very very fast. Only thing lacking is the aluminum body and blinkfeed. Also LG has a pretty good multi-tasking interface, it opens small windows of apps. I suggest you Check out YouTube for the G2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moster2:
Depending on how much you want to wait, you should definitely also consider the oppo find 7. This phone's a beauty in my eyes. Specs are great too.

Another interesting phone is the oneplus one with cm. Its going to be 5.5inch with the size of a 5 inch sony z1, qualcomm s800 and its supposed to cost less than 400$. Too bad that there arent any real pics yet and the release is going to be somewhere in Q2 of 2014. So, it can be 1 month or almost 3 :<
