Sony Xperia Z1 Android 4.4 Kitkat update list of Feature I can't find on current Z1 Kitkat (Quite disappointed about the performance of the phone after update though - not better but even worse in some cases)

Android 4.4 Kitkat Native Features

- Better RAM optimization (Do not expect with this as Sony will be adding more features) - Not better for me

- Choice of default Android Launcher (Will be added with Xperia Simple Home Launcher on 4.4) - Only Z Ultra have it

- Audio tunneling (low-power music streaming, in which Qualcomm should support with their SoC) - Don't know about this so not sure

- Extension to Bluetooth AVRCP 1.3 (Notice that the volume on the Bluetooth device, for example, SBH-20, is not the same with the volume of the phone. WIth this feature, it will give absolute volume on the system to Bluetooth devices.) - Don't know about this so not sure

- System-wide Closed captioning (subtitles) - Don't know about this so not sure

- *Support for step counter and step detection sensors (built-in sensors inside Xperia Z2)

Xperia Camera Apps Update

- *4K Video app, Ultra-High Definition video recording (4K2K video, 4096 x 2160 resolution in cinematic 1.89:1 aspect ratio)

- *Timeshift Video app, lets you record 120 fps, 720p video, after which, you can edit multiple parts for slow motion or fast motion playback. It also saves two files, one with the edited video with 30fps parts and one with native 120fps playback.

- Background Defocus app, an app currently exclusive to Xperia Z1s where it captures 2 photos simultaneously and adds bokeh to the focused picture. You can also edit how much background defocus you want to simulate, as well as to choose from three blurring effects (2 motion blurs, vertical and horizontal, and a Gaussian blur)

- 1080p 60 fps as well as VGA (640x480) 30fps video recording

- *Portrait Retouch app, which you can see your face being retouched in real-time.

System Wide Xperia Update

- Sony Multimedia Apps (Walkman, Album and Movies) now use native Google-style side menu

- Smart backlight control (keeping screen on while using the phone without touching)

- Smart call handling (answer and reject calls, as well as turn off ringer, using motion control)

- *Double tap to wake (similar to Xperia Tablet Z's feature)

- *Choice of Audio accessories for a wide range of input/output devices to be connected. This will enable external devices, for example, the Sony Stereo Mic STM10, to be used as default recording microphone instead of the built-in stereo mic.

- *Hi-Resolution Audio output to USB DAC or DAC amplifier

- *Digital Noise Cancelling (DNC). (Now only works with Xperia Z2 since its headphone jack adds another pin for DNC)

- Power Management for Accessories (enable power management for Smartwatch and other devices)

- Sony's What's New app for Sony Select and Sony Multimedia updates (Music and Video Unlimited)

- "Close All" option in the Recent Apps section

not been rumored to have but already had in the Z1 KK update: sluggish performance occationally and not so improved camera

I was told this would not work for z1... But is this real?

The built in mic is ridiculous...

Excellent! Thank you for sharing.

But they dont have cases for this? Because im guessing after this battery since its so thick.. Normal cases for s3 wont fit.. I do want this battery im about to buy it on ebay but am concern about the cases.

You mean Hyperion doesn't give any case with their battery??

I'm also looking for an extended battery, but right now, only Samsung's has the best looking battery.
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Colleagues,

My Galaxy Note 2 came with its stock ROM, which I decided to upgrade. Because I didn't know what I was doing, and I was following several sets of instructions, I messed about in CWM wiping and formatting various bits (what an idiot!). Eventually I got a good build and it all worked fine. However.......

Could I do something in CWM that would wipe out the mobile voice and data functionality?

Here are the symptoms: when scanning for 'Network Operators' it finds five of them, including my own (O2-UK). When I tell it to choose O2-UK, it says the phone is registered on the network, and the signal strength meter is about two thirds of the way up.

However, the phone reports "Emergency calls only" and no voice or data service. It won't send or receive any calls.

I can't believe it's a hardware fault, because the radio is obviously working OK as it can see the various mobile networks, 'register' on O2-UK, and update the signal strength meter. It seems more like I've accidentally deleted some essential piece of software (a driver?).

I've tried several custom ROMS; I've installed a couple of different modems, and I've installed a new kernel. Nothing makes a difference. Here is what I'm currently running:

Android version 4.4.2

Baseband version N7100XXUEMJ5 (EMI6 also tried)

Kernel version 3.0.101-India-v2.7.3-OC-INTL AGNi@PSN-pureCM #1

CyanogenMod version 11-20140319-Linaro-n7100

Build date Wed Mar 19 01:26:42 CDT 2014

Build number cmn7100-userdebug 4.4.2 KOT49H e464f01cde2 test-keys

Have you any idea what I could do to get the telephony working? I'm out of ideas. So far I've turned it into a fine 5.5" Android tablet!

Many thanks,

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] vithlani2:
Check that ur imei number is correct by dialing *#06#
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Ah, thank you, Vithlani2. The IMEI number from dialing *#06# is:

354666056818321

The IMEI number inside the phone is:

354666/05/861832/3

If I remove the slashes and compare:

354666056818321

354666058618323

The ...68... is reversed to ...86... and the final 1 is changed to a 3.

Could this be the problem, do you think? If so, is it possible to fix it?

(I forgot to add in my first email that the SIM card works in two other phones, which suggests the SIM card and my local O2 network are working OK).

Thanks,

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Just to add: there is a file manager than comes with this ROM. I read somewhere that Samsung keep the IMEI in the 'efs' partition (thought I don't know if that is true, I just read it).

By starting at the root, and giving permission, I can see a folder called 'EFS'. Inside that is a folder called 'imei', which contains a file called 'mps_code.dat'.

However, this file is only three bytes long so it can't contain the IMEI, I believe.

[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Thank you very much for trying to help. Unfortunately it doesn't work. Using Maui META 3G v6.1316.01. I'm following the procedure here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CokpIVGPBw

It fails at the point where I switch the phone on with the cable plugged in (1m 15s): Maui simply doesn't see my phone - it just says "Please connet cable to target and power on", and doesn't change no matter what I do with my phone.

The Samsung USB drivers and cable are fine because I can talk to the phone with Odin3, which is how I installed the custom ROM.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks again,

Steve

[Xperia SP General] QBerto:
WIth the update the 'Recently Played', 'Most Played' and 'Newly Added' are back

The Played song have a bold effect in the playlist, the played playlist too

And there's a new easy way to open a menu for every song, before u need to tap for a few seconds the song, now u can tap the arrow in the right corner to open the menu, also with album/artist (dunno if u can do that in album/artist before)

And I'm not sure, but I think LED eff works a little better, nor good enough as 4.1, but maybe is not Walkman related, because the light beat eff is not in walkman app, is in Settings>Display
[Xperia SP General] laviyaeh:
I don't know why you all use the flickering led visualization. I thought the Walkman app is for listening music and not for watching "psychedelic colors". It's a not needed feature.

[Xperia SP General] headbon3:
​

Dude, the LED effects is the main reason why the SP stands "peculiarly" out with the rest of the Xperias with the LED strip design. You could say its just superflous but too others (including me), its a novelty function of the device itself...and to lose it after doing an update is just unacceptable. I'm hoping that this functionality is restored on the coming update (FIX as others call it) of the .266 FW.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nforsans:
Hi

I've experienced lots of problems with the Wizard's midlet manager, especially when trying to use Opera Mini.

It sees I've got a working connection, but when loading any web page I get an error message - critical error kind of thing.

I hard reset my Vario several times hoping it would solve the problem... in vain.

has any update to the Midlet Manager been released? And where to get it from? I checked the TAO site, but no downloads are available from their site (they seem to ship direct to HTC and the likes).

Alternatively, what is the work around? I want to use the Midlet for Google maps and other midlets. Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Keitaro:
Download the attached zip file but DO NOT unzip it. Overwrite the one in \Windows on your PDA. Once your done, start up Midlet Manager then Menu -> About and confirm the following version numbers...

Runtime MIDP 2.0: v10.1.7.551 (Build 20060317)

That's the version I'm running and it works just fine with Google Local Maps and Opera Mini.

If after performing the above you still can't get Opera Mini working properly then I'd suggest uninstalling Opera Mini (tap and hold the icon and select uninstall) and then visit http://mini.opera.com in Pocket Internet Explorer and download Opera Mini again. If that page says something about recognising your device as an iPaq of some kind then just ignore it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] guttrhead:
You may just want to scrap tao's manager and go for IBM's http://www.winmobiletech.com/sekalaiset/IBMJ9MIDP.zip

I haven't used it, but some people like it. It displays satelite images in google local too.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nforsans:
I've now tried the first solution (the update to Tao's MIDLET) and the midlet manager freezes then crashes as a result!

No good...

Any idea why it does that, and any other work around to the problem?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Keitaro:
Ok perform this step as well, download this file...

...and overwrite the ones found in...

\Application Data\Tao\intent

and

\Windows
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nforsans:
I've just done that, but in vain. the Midlet Manager still freezed then crashes. I can't even uninstall my old version of Opera mini and / or install the new one. The Midlet Manager crashes before I can do anything...

Any suggestion?

Maybe I should go back to the original Manager?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Keitaro:
Navigate to...

\Application Data\Tao\intent\app\jam\midlets

...and delete the operamini folder and see what happens then.

If Midlet Manager still locks up then by all means replace rofs_target.zip and target.img.zip back with the versions you had originally... assuming you did back them up first :)

Just out of interest, what ROM version are you running and what Midlet Manager version did you have prior to all this messing around?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nforsans:
Thanks Keitaro.

My ROM is T-Mobile's UK ROM 1.6.2.4 - I am waiting for T-Mobile to release the new ROM.

Maybe that's why the updated Midlet manager does not work.

I did not backup the target.img.zip file unfortunately.

Could anybody on the T-Mobile's 1.6.2.4 ROM upload their Windows/target.img.zip file here please?

I could then downgrade my Midlet Manager.

Instala perfecto y es muy rapida. Hasta el momento tuve 1 solo bug que es que el telefono trabajando normalmente se queda colgado y hay que apagarlo y volverlo a encender. Todo lo demas anda perfecto, probe reinstalar de nuevo y el mismo problema. Esto me sucede luego de estar unos 15-20 minutos trabajando con el celu, no importa la aplicacion, se cuelga estes usando la aplicacion que estes usando.

Para instalar el custom rom realize 1º un backup con cwm, luego instale el zip desde el cwm y inicio perfecto. Note que las descargas son mas rapidas, el movimiento de pantallas tambien mas fluido y todo lo demas perfecto, excepto por el bug que antes menciono.

Alguna solucion? Te sucedio lo mismo?

Esta custom rom no es 4.2.2 es la version 4.1.2, o estoy errado ?

Un abrazo

Hugo

---------------------------------

Download perfect and is very fast. So far I had only 1 bug that the phone is working normally hangs and you have to turn it off and on again. Everything else works perfectly, probe reinstall it again and the same problem. This happens to me after spending 15-20 minutes working with the cellular, no matter the application, hangs're using the application you are using.

To install the custom rom Realize 1 backup with cwm, then install the zip from cwm and start perfect. Note that the downloads are faster, but also the movement of fluid screens and everything else perfect, except for the previously mentioned bug.

Any solution? I happened the same?

This custom rom is not 4.2.2 is the version 4.1.2, or am I wrong?
