[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vlawrence0324:
I have set the screen timeout to 30 seconds. I notice that the screen will go off without warning unlike other handsets (will dim slightly first) I have to keep reaching for the power button and it's a little inconvenient for me specially when reading. Does anyone have a workaround for this without rooting? Hope Sony would address this issue.

Bugs I found

Rom is very smooth and good looking but I found some bugs / issues

[BUG] Network based location does not work

GPS works properly

Lock-screens need re-sizing, they do work but because they don't fit properly it's difficult to unlock the screen

Apps that I really like to have installed but FC :mad:

Touchpal X keyboard, crashes on re-sizing, otherwise works ok.

ES File Explorer, does not work at all
[Samsung Galaxy Pocket] phantomhell:
Touchpal error then use smart keyboard, it work properly

if you put new lockscreen from online themes, then you must manually resized it. because default lockscreen has been resized :p

ES File Explorer unused, safe to delete it from TitaniumBackup

as you know, GPS is CM7 bugs, so it's not included in OP

[Moto X Q&A] noriyori:
I've been having the darndest time finding a solution for this, or any info for that matter.

I ride my bike a lot and use touchless control for checking time, navigating and playing music while the phone is in my pocket. Which is all great and I love it but the issue is the dreaded pocket touches. A lot of the time after giving a command I'll end up in settings menues or various apps or making calls since the touchless controls wake up the screen. Is there any way to keep the screen off when accepting voice commands?
[Moto X Q&A] drago10029:
I have 2 non technical solutions yet mind blowing solutions! The first mind blowing solution is just flip your phone so the curved side is touching your skin/pocket.

2nd which I'm not too sure about is I think touchless controls have some lockscreen options also bonus you could just set a really short screen timeout like 10 seconds!

Hope that helped!
[Moto X Q&A] noriyori:
Yeah, I guess mind blowing solution 1 will be it for me. I hate having a pin set on the phone as it's always in my pocket so no need for cumbersome security measures. And a 10 second timeout would drive me crazy when actually using my phone.

You'd think if it's smart enough to detect it's in my pocket it should have an auto-pocket mode.

Thanks though!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] MoBiggz:
I have an 8125 and when I go to Start-->Settings-->System-->Certificates-->Root, I do not see Verisign in the list of trusted root certs. Is it just me or can anyone else with a Cingular 8125 confirm that they do not have Verisign listed in their trusted root certs? I list Thawte, GTE, and several other but no Verisign.

I am trying to authenticate with my corporate wifi using PEAP and keep getting an error - Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you. I get prompted for a username, password and domain and then it returns the error - The server certificate is issued by an unknown authority and since I purchased a Verisign WLAN cert, that is what lead me to check the root certs on the 8125 - no Verisign is listed.

Just need someone to confirm their Cingular root cert settings.

Thanks

Running the new ROM, not on my box either.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] MoBiggz:
It appears that Class 3 Public Primary Certification Authority (VeriSign, Inc.) is the Verisign one. I Wonder why it doesnt work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigma_p:
Reading a few articles here on XDA and a few outside about the general process of rooting and unlocking bootloader, here are a few things I have learnt (question is below) -

Usual steps to root -

1) Unlock bootloader or bypass bootloader.

2) Install a "Custom Recovery". Eg : CWM, TWRP.

3) Push(or copy) a binary file "su" to the "root" of the device using this "Custom Recovery".

For the Nexus, HTC and Sony devices, the first step (unlocking the bootloader) can usually be found on the website of the OEM itself.

It involves using "adb" and "fastboot" executables provided by Google.

BUT Samsung does NOT have this procedure.

Instead, MOST rooting procedures I have seen, use ODIN.

And the first steps are -

1) Boot to "Download mode"

2) Install "Custom Recovery" through ODIN.

So what EXACTLY is happening to the bootloader?

Does ODIN unlock the bootloader in Samsung devices?

OR is it just bypassed to install a Custom Recovery?

I hope this is a valid question!

And sorry for using all the quotation marks. I just wanted to highlight a few things and HTML tags for bold and italics are not working for me for some strange reason.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
I love wrongly used quotation marks, some great websites for that!

With rooting every device is different and most Samsung devices do not need to have their bootloader unlocked. Its not better or worse just different. It's all about how the oem writes the firmware, Samsung just often doesn't have this, which also is why those same devices don't allow for fastboot commands, not written into the code

If you are asking how to root your device I would need more specifics on what it is but just know that unlocking the bootloader is not always a prerequisite.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigma_p:
I recently rooted my SGH-I577 and flashed CM11 on it.

Thanks to InkSlinger420!

In the process, I wanted to get a general idea of what is going on instead of only following the steps.

So I guess my Samsung phone is rooted but the bootloader is NOT unlocked?

And sorry for the quotation marks again.

I can't get the options on the top of the edit text message box to work. Like Bold, Italics, attach, hyperlink etc etc...

They're just thumbnails :(

The smilies on the side too...

Off topic, but help?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Wasnt picking on you by the way, just saying how fun it is to read sites like this

http://www.unnecessaryquotes.com

But to answer your question, you device doesn't have a step to unlock the bootloader in the rooting guide because it isn't needed. In a sense it is unlocked. The reason other devices need you to unlock the bootloader before root is there isn't another exploit to bypass the security checks done by the bootloader (and sometimes radio) so in order to root one of these often the first step is to unlock the bootloader.

Your bootloader doesn't run these same checks and so there is no need, again not necessarily better or worse, just different
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sigma_p:
Haha!

Gave me a laugh, that website! I'll refrain from using quotes.

Thanks!

Have a better understanding of the root process now! :) (I think)

[Moto X Q&A] DustinKimble:
Please dont flame me for this. Yes i have searched and no i havent found a solid answer.

I recently got my moto x from AT&T and they updated it in store. ive tried most of the other rooting methods with no success. I have Linux (64 bit if it matters) working adb, and working drivers.

What are my options here? i believe i read that i cant down grade to 4.2.2 to successfully root

If someone could point me in the right direction and not flame me that would be awesome. Thanks for any help you can provide, this will be the first phone ive ever had without root if i cant get it working :(
[Moto X Q&A] JGoN86:
Only if your bootloader is unlocked. That's it... If not then you just sit back and enjoy the phone

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BAWTH:
I followed and used this thread ( http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1963790 ) to root my phone, and i have no troubles following the steps. I searched around the thread and found out that i can unroot my phone with the SuperSU app, so i went into the app and selected the unroot button. To my knowledge it worked, since when i went into my Root Check app it said that there wasn't any root found. But here is my problem, when i go into my phone settings and select the stock update for my phone it gives me a message of "Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available", so am I missing something? Is there another step i must do to be able to update my phone from 4.1.2. My phone is the Galaxy S3 SGH-I747M. Thanks for taking the time to read my post!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Try doing 2 things: First do a hard wipe/reset from settings (after backing up your data, of course). Then boot into download mode and see what your settings are especially if you have a custom or official binary. Sometimes though OTA update availability may take 24-48 hours to register. Finally, if you really want to update your phone to the latest OS, this could be done manually and I'd be glad to point you in the direction of this. Since you are still on 4.1.2, I would suggest you take the opportunity to free unlock your phone on 4.1.1 (if you haven't done this already).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BAWTH:
Thanks for the reply,

Won't this method delete all my settings (in my phone settings and app settings)?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Yes, it may which is why you need to do a back-up. You could do a simple back with Kies and restore your apps and settings afterwards.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] erolsipar91:
Suggestion

I would use KingoRoot to unroot the phone, without losing anything! (It's free too just Google it)

Bootlooped on a dirty flash over Carbon, but was worth a try :)

oh and BTW I like the low DPI

Calls, GPS and camera all seem to work
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Well I don't know if Carbon is on caf or not, but generally dirty flashing between 2 different roms is a bad idea. Thats good news, though I'm going to guess camera will be flaky (similar to honami) 80% of the time perfect then every once in a while driver won't initialize.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Even though I'm building carbon I'm not sure if it is using caf either... bit I have dirty flashed between the two before when I have had a building Slim with very few issues.

The camera seems to work 99% of the time in carbon, so I cant see why it should be any worse here. I do have a flickering screen in carbon when in video mode (maybe H/W overlays not 100%?) that isn't present in this build of Slim.

Edit:

I do know that carbon is using -caf as I had to change an include path to get past a not found .h
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Slim had problems with some video playback (browser video or Netflix) would be green unless I disabled hw overlays, when we moved caf that git fixed and camera was less problematic.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dbolivar:
Thanks a lot for another awesome firmware for the Z Ultra!!

Regarding the camera issue, I've been facing it on every custom firmware out there, and found a possible workaround (works for me, at least): as soon as the device boots, open the camera immediately, and it should open normally after a small delay / frame freeze. After that, it continues to work normally, without any freezes, until the next reboot. However, if you wait a while after boot before opening the camera, it will freeze with a static frame. Killing it will cause the "can't connect to camera" message to appear the next times you open the camera. And I've tested with different camera apps, it's the same thing.

Hope it helps to debug the issue.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Shadow of Chaos:
Alright, currently running this as my main. No problems so far; Bluetooth, calling, LTE, Wi-Fi, and video all work completely. Haven't had a reason to use the camera yet, however.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] lobiik:
all seems to be working, but it doesn't read my SD card. It's an class4 a-data 32GB card formatted as exFAT, I'm backing up its content and will format it in phone (it does recognize it, but when I tap mount sd card, more options just flash below and then it goes back to 'mount sd card')

edit: no luck, it doesn't even format the card. When I reformatted it via card reader to FAT32 or NTFS, it was recognized, but with NTFS formatting it does not see any data, so I guess it's just exFAT/NTFS support that's missing

oh and with this dpi settings, digits in PIN entry are too close together (but still possible to type them in) - see http://i.imgur.com/sNmEGOJ.jpg

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I was just going to say I could do it as I have the slim-caf repo already on the destop.

Are there any plans to support the GPe version or do you want me to do an unofficial version? I'm already doing [almost] weekly builds of Carbon for both the togari and togari_gpe.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
I'm unclear on the difference, and didn't look at the gpe device folder. When I get my net all set up I'll take a look.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Not sure of the differences either, but as soon as I got Carbon togari to build the gpe built as well. There has only been a few little issues in the gpe build for carbon. although the last silm I built for the GPe didn't boot.

There only seems to be about 30 people downloading the GPe carbon so there may not be much of a call for it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] VipiN'n'DroiD:
Been a while .. No new Updates for this ROM ???

Still screen-camera usage ratio is like 99% to 1% ;)

And ZU camera is dubious...I wish in future all manufacturers will allow users to adjust display to our liking in full...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] prbassplayer:
Doubt it. Messing with gamma can screw up screens permanently, specially if implementation is done wrong. I don't see manufactures doing it from get go, except with very basic controls like Samsung used to do.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nedooo:
Gama adjustment can screw up display permanenty?!?!?

I rest my case :silly: :eek: :silly:
