Yep the restrictions on the Barclays app is the main reason I've left my Moto G stock.

What do the T&C's for your own banking app say? As far as I understand iit the worst case scenario is that your not covered for any loss if your bank account is hacked/defrauded AND the bank can categorically prove that the source of the hack was the app on a rooted device.

It does seem a bit ridiculous to me as there is nothing stopping anyone logging in to internet banking via their browser on a rooted phone, or for that matter on a computer in an Internet cafe somewhere which is IMHO far more risky. It's all about due diligence - if your account is defrauded and the bank can prove you haven't taken reasonable care with your bank cards / pin numbers / internet banking / connected apps and that is the cause of the fraud then you don't have the financial protection that you would get otherwise.

I think there was a app called rootcloak and it hides root access, or something like that, you need xposed for it to work and if your already rooted might as well install xposed here's the link

cheers bro ill check that out
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmotog:
Yeah you're absolutely right. However HSBC, the one I'm with, installs fine, but in its terms and conditions it says dont install if youre rooted. So well I uninstalled it before I even logged in with it. I just do banking on my desktop pc now.

Another app I came across that doesnt work in 4OD. At same time BBC iPlayer works.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shmotog:
Could you confirm something for me, have you come across a Call Recorder that works on your moto g? I'm on ANDROREC and it works fine on 4.3 but when I updated to kitkat it stopped. Thats the primary reason why I rooted in first place to have call recorder. Could you check that for me [MENTION=608644]Neu[/MENTION]-smurph?

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
Ok so i know people have started receiving there z2's. pics have been posted, videos linked etc. but i havent seen a z2 underwater yet. This is literally the first thing im gonna do...... if it does break id rather do it before setting it all up lol. So if you've dunked your z2 post pics/videos here.....

I dont wanna be the first one
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotgunfool:
I have just tried recording my phone being dunked in water, but as soon as it went in the water the camera closed, and as its just a jug of water im testing it in, my hands are too big to go in and turn the camera back on.

at least i know its water tight xD
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
I wont have issues fitting my hands in t turn camera back on..... it going in my mates fishtank lol
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Just one little advise, if I may...

Don't sink your new Z2 into aquarium, especially not into aquarium with a sea water - your camera will be destroyed.. (not literally but it'll become unusable).

There's many Z1 users who reported bad things after such experiment.

Watter sometimes find passage and you got foggy lens (inside of device) you can't get nothing about it because you can't open it (you actually can but I wouldn't advise that)...

So...use waterproof for rain and accidentally water contact - I have my Z1 from the beginning and never tried to shoot pict in swimming pool... - I just don't trust them -

Z5 will, probably, have better technology/sealings.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
you know what mate, i dont trust it either lol, it aint going in saltwater and i am actually expecting it to break, if it develops a fault it will be going straight back but i shall skip both phones4u and vodafone and be sending it back to sony. What you mean use waterproof for the rain???? i use my galaxy note (not waterproof) if its raining and its fine..... Z2 is rated ip58, if water gets in anywhere on its first day out the box then its faulty, end of.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotgunfool:
Just make sure that you record yourself on another device to prove you didnt leave any of the flaps open :)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
i will be using my note to record the whole thing, plan on merging bits of it with the vid from z2 but will keep the vids as proof.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Exactly...they will tell you your flaps were opened :P

No, really...I'm cleaning my Z1 wuth water, I just put it in a sink and never had any problems...

I just don't believe it would stayed fully functional after underwater photoshooting ;)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
I have my doubts about it staying fully functional afterwards as well, but apparently it can be done and it will be fine..... so i just cant resist, they'll sure as hell know about it if it breaks tho, i'll complain to every damn person employed by sony, from the ceo to the janitor lol
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Haha... ;)

Well I'm sure there are devices that were under the water and survive but when I pay 1000$ for something I try not to do experiments with it...

I saw only few underwater pictures (Z/Z1) so I guess I'm not the only one who thinks like that...

But I totally understand you and if device, like Z1/Z2 have so many sealings/protection rubbers it should bear up some torture ;)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
lol im kinda the opposite, when i spend that much on something i wanna know that it does what it claims, to be honest i will probably never use the phone underwater again, but at least i'll worry less when im playing on my phone in the bath
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quist:
I have a waterproof camera and a Nokia 1020. Nokia is great when on holiday and not wet, but wet days at the beach or pool were nerve racking as I always had to keep an eye on my phone with the towels and my camera never was as good at taking pics. Few weeks ago I got a Z1 Compact for wet days. Tested it at home for water proofing and all good. Great camera. Just need to set the volume button as the shutter for underwater pics as screen is unresponsive and camera button hard to use. Even took it to the waterpark with no issues.

Only problem was the screen felt too small so I got the Z2 thinking I'd give the Z1C to the wife. Got it yesterday and loved it. Based on good experience with the Z1C, I just expected waterproofing to be as reliable. After setting it up, I finally had a chance to test it by dipping into a pitcher of water and tested the camera. Camera button so much better than Z1 and all seemed to work. Suddenly I see bubbles, camera shuts off, flap warning pops up (flaps were completely closed) and phone dies. Took it out immediately and water is running out of microphone holes at bottom and apparently from around the frame. What a let down! Just hoping Sony or vendor are cool about a replacement. Had it all of 2 days. Got wet in 15 cm water and died although all flaps completely closed.

Still, compared to Z1 Compact, the body stiffness and frame flush with the glass feel far more flimsy on the Z2. Now that its got water in it, I can almost squeeze it and water seems to leak from around the aluminum frame. Contemplating sticking with the Z1 Compact for a year until tech improves if I can get my money back. Otherwise might try the SGS5. Really bummed as I loved the Z2, but I don't need just another smartphone, I need one that has a good camera and can survive the pool.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feis:
Lol, no need to panick, you obviousy got a defective phone, z2 is just as if not more water resistant as previous phones.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BanziBaby:
Personally I can't understand why some are so eager to dunk it in water just to test the water proofing, I mean if you have a crash proof car you ain't gonna crash it into a wall to test it.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quist:
Well, if you buy the phone to be able to use it in the water, it's better to test it out before you're in a situation where you need the phone and it just dies on you. Of course, if you never intend to get the thing wet, obviously you have no need to test this feature.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunno:
Well, it got it's first water test today, and . . . well it passed!

I was on the golf course using the phone as a golf GPS when it threw it down and everything got drenched. The phone has survived, but was more or less unusable when the screen was wet. Several rain drops seemed to act as finger presses, launching random programs, which was quite annoying as I had to keep drying the phone to get back to the GPS screen. But I suppose the main thing was that the phone survived the deluge

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
Salt water does erode away things alot easier

I think you can use in salt water, just only near the water surface
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdithug:
When I asked Sony about the water proof certification, they said no salt water and no water with chemicals. So no pools or oceans. It's meant more or less for use in the rain, shower, bath, accidental drops in toilets, puddles, ponds, sinks, splashes, etc.. Or like the previous video, in a freshwater Lake for example.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
This is a screenshot of one of several videos I took in a saltwater pool. The phone was never too deep in the pool and never for more than a few minutes. Call me what you like but I wanted to know if it would work. Everything still works like it should.

Just for the record i am using the Phone to wrote this! At the Beach! ?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
Right on! You may want to rinse your phone with distilled water to get the saltwater out of there.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
The thing with a salt water isn't only in fact that salt could damage and leave scratches on your device... It's in fact that salt salt conducts electricity and it could make short circuit if it passes flaps and barriers.

Sony strictly said - warranty won't be accepted if you submerged device into sea water...

Of course, you can try, someone will succeed, someone won't :)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CodeNameRedNeck:
That is true of water with any kind of minerals in it not just saltwater but you are right about saltwater.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electrash:
I know its not related with Z2 but i can show you Z1 underwater video (Sea water around 1M depth)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pena_leve:
Only use water tap.

Nothing else more.

I do notice that the screen sometimes get's irresponsible, under water.

The camera switch from front to back with no reason.

And, the screen also gets very "oil".

The Z2 never went too down on ocean. Say, half a meter.

But until now everything is normal. :silly:

[HTC Droid DNA] chick3n564:
I was browsing the xiaomi site and I found that it has a download for miui on the "HTC butterfly dna" but I don't know which phone it's for, though the picture of the device is obviously the Verizon DNA, so if anyone wants to try it i'll put the link for the official download and you guys can post the results.

http://en.miui.com/download-206.html
[HTC Droid DNA] shoes22:
I tried it a few weeks ago, because I was curious. DO NOT FLASH IT.

The ROM works just fine, but it's meant for GSM-only on the Butterfly/DNA. It won't connect to the Verizon network at all, even after modifying the radio settings and doing the *#*#4636#*#* dialer trick to default to CDMA. After you flash it, with any other subsequent ROM you flash afterwards, the radio will still be broken. The only solution to fix it is re-flash the stock recovery and stock radio again.

It probably wouldn't be *too* much work to modify the ROM to make it Verizon-compatible, but I haven't had time to look into it much. All I know is it won't work as is.

---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

I should also point out that MIUI for HTC devices is currently based on Android 4.2, so app performance isn't as good as it could be.

Once MIUI is re-based to 4.4, it should be easier to fix the GSM-defaulting issue as well, due to the OS improvements on that front.
[HTC Droid DNA] IcyAgitator:
Sorry to bring up and old thread...but....would this work on the VZW DNA (unlocked/S-off) using ATT?
[HTC Droid DNA] simcardslot:
It should. I've had no problems beforehand.

Sorry to bring up an old thread (deja vu?), but what is the chance we will see MIUI V6 ported to the DNA? I would do it myself but I don't know anything about porting at all. :\
[HTC Droid DNA] shoes22:
I could do it. As long as we get a MIUI V6 ROM on a working CDMA base, (preferably the VZW HTC One) I could port it over to the DNA no problem.
[HTC Droid DNA] simcardslot:
What would it take to get it on a CDMA base, in terms of under the hood code?
[HTC Droid DNA] IcyAgitator:
could you compile/build one for GSM? A lot of us DNA users are using our devices on GSM carriers these days......

Here is a link to the latest MIUI for HTC One (m7)

If you have GSM, there should already be a working port for you...
