[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
I decided to try Sony's answering machine feature. I recorded a greeting. When I played it back it sounded like I was talking through a towel or something. I called my girlfriend and she said I sounded fine, so I don't think it's a mic issue.

As a check I downloaded 2 different voice recorder apps and both record with the same muffled sound.

Could you guys try and let me know. I'm on the most recent firmware 17.1.A.2.55.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
Really no one? It'll take 2 minutes.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
Some new info to report.....

I'm hoping a dev reads this and can shed some light.

People have been complaining in certain situations that they can't hear me on their end. Usually in noisy environments (on my side)

I downloaded "Easy Voice Recorder" in an effort to run some more testing. This particular voice recorder lets you override the phone's default for

1) noise suppression

2) echo cancellation

Turning off noise suppression makes a huge difference. Still sounds like **** compared to every other phone I've had in the last 5 years but it's improved greatly.

Thinking back, the times when people complained about the call quality on my end, I'm pretty sure my Z2 noise suppression is to blame.

Two things then:

Someone please download "Easy Voice Recorder" and test how a recording sounds. Then disable noise suppression in settings and test again.

Secondly, does any dev know of a way to alter the default noise suppression functionality?

Again, as I have divulged in several threads, I am unlocked, rooted and have lost my DRM keys. If this is not an issue for anyone else I'm wondering if it could have something to do with that...someone please take a minute and test this for me..Thanks.

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
I messed it up ultimately. I wanted to repartition the external sd using "aparted", instead I formated and repartitioned the internal one.

My situation now: tab doesn't boot into system, doesn't show in adb, doesn't show in flashtool (offline or online), doesn't boot to recovery, doesn't boot to download and doesn't show in windows. There's only one sign of life: when I plug it into a usb cable which is attached to my PC I get the windows "connect sound". And I get the disconnect/connect sounds when turning it off while attached to PC.

I assume that I can throw away my tab. If you know better, don't be afraid to tell me!
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleekmason:
Ouch.

You've tried all the button combos?

You could try the warranty... If they can't get into it either, then it probably won't matter if your rooted or not.

Hi. Actually, it does appear here, as qhsusb_dload. That must be a good sign..?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] id10terror:
Good sign, yes, but will probably be difficult to recover from, might be better off just doing a warranty replacement.

Another option is to use a current version of Ubuntu or similar linux distro to see if you can access partitions from there. I remember something similar on a buddy's HTC phone a couple years back and was able to get him back up and running, so might be a similar issue here.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android404:
Ok. I installed a virtual ubuntu and after work tomorrow i'll follow this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2582142 thread to see if it shows me anything. If so I might need halp to find the proper images to push. I found some other potenitally helpful stuff when googling qhsusb_dload. I'll see what where it takes me tomorrow. A replacement is kind of hard to get here in Norway afer my experience.

Thanks for now!
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] id10terror:
Good find! If that works out for you, maybe you can do a How To incase anyone encounters the same issue down the road.

Let me know if you need any partitions, although you should be able to grab most of them from any of my flashable zips. Just get them from the flash folder in the zip.

Good luck and godspeed! :fingers-crossed:
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfortier:
I think that will not work.

qhsusb_bulk is different from qhsusb_dload.

Newer qualcomm SOC has some "rescue" modes to recover fom bad flash. If the internal flash/eMMC can´t be accessed the SOC "bootROM" activates the qhsusb_dload mode. To get the device to "live" again is needed to use a qualcomm program to flash a qhsusb_bulk "driver" to the internal eMMC to activate the mass storage device...

There is a Korean Note2 qhsusb_dload topic about this here on xda... http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1914359

The problem is find the correct flasher binary to upload to the SOC, the right "driver" to flash and the correct partition layout of the internal flash/eMMC.

It´s better send to warranty replace... :(

Hello there,

Everybody asks for S5 QuickSettings with our i9505 deodexed. I found somewhere SystemUI.APK for i9500 deodexed, i tried and it works.

So you only need to replace SystemUI.apk and reboot. Don't forget to make a backup of ur old SystemUI.apk.

If you are like me you will want:

Your phone protected at all times.

Safely and easily be able to view and control your phone in the car.

Make and Receive Calls

Play Music

Use GPS Navigation

Safely control your phones functions

I thought I would share these links for a high quality car mount that suits the Motorola Photon Q using an Otterbox Commuter Case.

To save anyone the trouble of the searching, trial and error I went through.

If you are to use the OEM Motorola Vehicle Dock, you will have to remove your Otterbox to place it in the Dock, this is a pain in the back side.

A normal hardcase should fit into the OEM Dock.

The Otterbox is just too thick with the extra bezel protection and the rubber port protector gets in the way.

The solution are the following links: Comes with 10 different mountings styles for windshields, desks, bikes etc. Prices range from $24.95 to $29.95

Slip Grip to suit Otter Box Commuter:

Slip Grip to suit No Case

http://www.slipgripcarmounts.com/Using-No-Case----------------------------_c_27502.html

Also available from this ebay store:

If you would like to use the dock function of the OEM Dock and you already have one, pull it apart and glue it to the back of the Slip Grip.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
Hey guys, I have been using an S4 (i9500) for past six months, and there are some issues which are irritating me, so was thinking about buying a Z1. Anyone bought this phone from an S4? What's your thought, what do you miss or gain?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Written:
It seems a small step to make when there's the z2 out, which has reportedly resolved some of the flaws of this particular phone
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellRoot:
I had an s4... Worst phone I have ever had.... I hate the buttons on it and the oversaturated screen... Other than that it is good enough

The Z1 is a good phone.. Though sony is lying about the camera like on the z... But they are on the right way.. The camera is pretty good but could be better.. Great battery life and good design and feel..
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
I will not spend that much behind a phone, not anymore. What are these flaws of Z1 anyway?

Okay, now I really hate on-screen buttons, I am sure there's a way to disable them right, permanently?

Now secondly, the camera, is it on par with S4, or slightly better, or worse?

I don't hate my S4, but I hate some basic ideas which are been missing when designing a phone, like putting the speaker grill at rear, absolutely pathetic vibration strength, this is the deal breaker actually. I have missed number of calls, and that's causing me lot of troubles for my business. I never use anything other than vibration mode. So I am hoping Sony has done the basics right and made the vibration which could be felt, and is strong?

About the display, that will be a downgrade for me. I am huge fan of OLED displays, my previous phone history (since the arrival of OLED), Samsung Jet, Samsung Omnia HD, Samsung Wave S8500, Samsung S2, Samsung Note 2 and now S4. So you can see I have bore Samsung because of their OLED display. So I honestly don't believe that Trilimunous display with X-Reality will be any kind of upgrade. Anyway, that's thing I am prepared to give away.

So to make it short, I want to buy this phone, if the basics of this phone are right. Like I said, does it have really strong vibration? How is the call quality, is it loud or low? GSMArena review said the loudspeaker performance is below average, I don't much care about that but it will be a PITA if it's that low! And build quality, I am sure it's great, cause Sony never failed me with build quality before (I was a SE user and have used dozen phones, before OLED display was brought by Sammy), so I am having high expectations from Z1.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellRoot:
I have no problem with the volume or vibration... It is fair enough, much better than the s4.. You could try it in a shop and see whether it is good enough for you... The z2 has a better screen from what I know, and the camera is better than s4.. No doubt :)

The build quality is great... I love mine and it is fast as hell... :)

But my best advice is to go and try it before you buy :)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeParkour012:
Yea take the Z2. It has those front facing stereo speakers.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KarimSalloum:
Go for the Z2. It'll cost a bit extra but you'll get a fantastic screen. The Z1's screen is just mehh.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devtherockstar:
I was upgrading my n7100 from 4.1.2 to the

MJ5 4.3 ROM. I wanted to back up my data with a nandroid so that I could retain my app data. After I made the nandroid I tried restoring it. After that I got stuck at the Samsung logo in a perpetual boot loop. I tried deleting the cache and davit cache and that took me to the part where it says android is optimising apps after software upgrade but once the upgrading finishes the phone restarts again and then gets stuck at the Samsung logo again in a boot loop. The only solution to get by this is to delete data/factory reset in Cwm. But then I lose all data. Is there any way to recover the app data? I still haven't upgraded to 4.3 and am still on 4.1.2.

Thanks!!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joy854:
Wipe data and do a factory reset. Don't format the internal sd if u had made your backup in the internal memory of your phone. Once the phone starts use Titanium backup to restore all your stuff from the nandroid backup.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lew1ky:
Hi,

I received a new Nexus 10 yesterday and everything was running great on 4.4 kitkat until the wi-fi suddenly started running very slowly and only on this device. I looked up online and found a suggested fix would be to wipe the cache partition in recovery, so I did that, except it froze halfway through. I left it for a while but nothing. The bar wasn't going up and the device was completely unresponsive.

I forced a reboot but now the device is stuck in a bootloop. I can get to the bootloader and my PC recognises it there, but if I try and get into recovery again, the little graphic of the android on it's back comes up with a red warning triangle on its chest (can't remember if that's normal or not) and then nothing else happens. I can't open the menus or see it on my PC. When I try to boot normally, I get stuck at the bootscreen but my PC can see it.

Thanks

EDIT: I fixed the problem by simply reinstalling android via ADB and sideload.
