is there any way to share files between my wizard and an ibook with an airport card over a wifi connection? i was able to get the wizard to connect to the ibook but was unable to figure out how to move files between them.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nandaiyo:
How did you connect your Wizard to your iBook?

As far as I know, OS X does not recognize WM5 natively without the use of a third-party app such as MarkSpace's The Missing Sync.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] monkey_42:
I don't think there's any way to do that directly, unless maybe there's a

wizard ftp program. Or you could turn on the WebDAV server in Apache on your Mac, and access some files through http?

However, you can connect directly to your ibook with Bluetooth, not WiFi, pretty easily. Might be easier to just grab a bluetooth dongle.

I've owned the Z1, and the Z1 Compact. Now I'm hearing Z2 has the sale volume/crackly output.

I wear an earphone plugged directly into my phones jack when I talk and drive, and the audio quality on every sony phone is TERRIBLE. Crackly, distorted sound and every time the mic on the earphone touches any part of my shirt it cuts out all volume. I've tested this with 6 other android phones and no problems. Strangely though Windows Phone also suffers from this problem. Also audio output through a 3.5mm aux cable into the car produces extremely quiet sound on the highest volumes.

How has Sony not fixed this? I feel like this is bush league stuff.
[Xperia Z2 General] Publicglutton:
My Z2 arrived today, it does NOT have that problem....go figure:confused:
[Xperia Z2 General] krabappel2548:
My Z1 sounds awesome together with my MDR1 headphones, never had a better sound on a phone :)
[Xperia Z2 General] Deleted member 5843740:
So you're telling me when you plug in earphones directly into the jack, there is no change in sound, no crackling audio, no clarity or volume issues at all? Try plugging those same earbuds into another modern android phone or iphone and you'll hear zero interference or crackling issues.
[Xperia Z2 General] Lolento:
Can you check your source material of what you're listening to? It may be compressed on the high end.

And owning Z1, Z1 Compact and now the Z2 is kind of unbelieveable if you just want to come in an trash the Z2. (Not that I'm accusing you of this but I would have posted this issue on this forum if it was discovered on the Z1)
[Xperia Z2 General] Deleted member 5843740:
I'm talking about listening to spotify on extreme quality over a 4G LTE connection, or simply speaking to somebody while driving hands free.

I had an HTC ONE and plugging in the same iphone headphone into it it sounds like im speaking on a landline with no interference or static at all. Every sony phone ive used experiences this, it's very strange.
[Xperia Z2 General] Publicglutton:
That is correct..:)

I have the digital noise cancelling headset (MDR-NC31EM) and there is NO crackling..NO issues at all.

Totally agree with krabappel2548 , fantastic sound quality..:laugh:
[Xperia Z2 General] roninr1c:
I used the Bose noise cancelling headset and it's awesome. No issues. One thing i noticed, with the case you have to be sure the earphone jack is seated properly.
[Xperia Z2 General] Lolento:
I don't have Spotify so I don't know what it means in terms of extreme quality. They could be upsampling a bad source and call it extreme quality.
[Xperia Z2 General] Bigmille:
Spotify extreme quality = 320kbps encoding. The best you can get for streaming right now.
[Xperia Z2 General] packetlos:
No problems here, the noise cancelling headphones are excellent too,

Never notice any cracking sound on my z, z ultra, nexus 10 nor lumia 525.
[Xperia Z2 General] Fiso:
Yh i have the same issue on my Z1. I checked with CM11 or AOSP and there is no crackling in low volume so this is definalty not a hardware problem.

To reduce this Crackling sound while ising Stock i download a custom Kernel like DoomLord's and use Pimp My Z1 (or any app you prefer) to turn down the gain the in the sound options. The downside is that the volume becomes lower. This method doesnt get rid of it completely but it does reduce it. I honestly dont even bother with stock anymore i just use CM11 or PA on my Z1.

BTW i think this Noise is called Sibilance. G3 users are experiencing the same problem.

Also turning off ClearAudio+ reduces the crackling sound.
[Xperia Z2 General] sam_conrad:
Cracking insinuates that there is a popping noise. I hear none. As far as noise, yes. There is a faint hiss at low volume, extremely faint. Sony isn't exactly a leader in SNR but the audio isn't necessarily bad. Anyone who is using ClearAudio+ (which is total s***) shouldn't even comment on audio issues, definitely turn that off. Clear Phase on the old 4.2.2 ROM caused some definite extreme distortion and cracking over Bluetooth (but not the headphone jack) but that has been removed in the new ROM.

Sibilance is the hiss sound you hear when people make "S" sounds into the microphone. It can be really harsh, but usually reducing frequencies around 4-6KHz will reduce the problem. Sibilance is extremely prevalent in analog FM Radio.
[Xperia Z2 General] Stalkalainen:
I currently have an issue where sometimes I only get sound out of one of the noise cancelling headphones. I have to rotate the headphone socket in the jack to get sound to come out of both. Sometimes I also get crackling on my e10s when the phone is in my pocket. I think I have a faulty headphone jack as the MDR1 work perfectly on my Z3TC.

Speaking with Sony UK they asked me to do a repair on the phone which seemed to help a little but the problems still exist. I expect my headphone socket has some damage or has become faulty.
[Xperia Z2 General] xda-napp3:
Iv noticed that when i plug in my phone to the soundsystem i have to crank the volume up allot higher to get the same soundlevel out of the spekers as other phones. Anyone have a solution to get the volume up out of the phone? (3.5mm output)
[Xperia Z2 General] V4LKyR:
Actually, I'm having the most awesome music experience with my Sony Xperia™ Z2 + Xiaomi Piston earbuds. Amazing sound quality with Dolby Atmos, you guys can't even imagine.
[Xperia Z2 General] tOrNadO™:
I totally agree with the low audio output on Z2.. Atleast speakers are loud enough now with lollipop, headphones effect isn't as good as it used to be. I used skullcandy, sennheiser, sony out-of-box earphones, which worked good on my XZ and not so much on Z2.. I guess i have to buy the noise cancelling ones only.. :(

[Xperia Z2 General] geoz67:
No problems whatsoever.
[Xperia Z2 General] BlAckXpeRia:
The solutions are a few. Mine is Dolby. I can almost swear that you can't put the headphones in your ears(at least my Samsung heatphones or Sony MH750) on max volume. The highest I could take was one click above middle volume. There is also no distortion(also depends on headphones) .
[Xperia Z2 General] danny19901:
On my Z2 I have no problems although I have a weird issue only happens with headphones though when listening to music it randomly pauses and plays again but sometimes just pauses it fully
[Xperia Z2 General] unni_kmr:
Mine has problem with both mic and speaker. The speaker is quite, but I can deal with it. Mic is bad enough that nowadays, when I am on phone at work, they call me on my desk phone instead of mobile because they have a hard time hearing me. I don't know what is wrong with it, but now I have to buy a new phone.
[Xperia Z2 General] Heitz:
For those with issues on calls: uncheck scanning always available in advanced wi-fi settings and uncheck microphone noise suppression in call settings.
[Xperia Z2 General] kanekanekane:
Regarding random pausing of music player.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravensmoke42069:
Hello,

My Pioneer R1 tablet the other night decided to do an automatic upgrade when booting up and hung for hours on 14 of 18 files updated. I rebooted the tablet for it to get to the home screen but come up with the error android phone services not initinalized and then froze. so rebooted and it got to the animated pioneer logo and just sits there never loading fully. Pioneer customer support sucks with helping and the tablet has a reset button on the back in a pin hole. I pressed that the tablet turns off. The tablet still stuck on animated logo.The tablet was running stock jellybean 4.2. The Pioneer people didnt want to do any troubleshooting. told me to send it to them to fix and that if they found anything wrong other than hardware issue i am liable for the charges on to of the shipping cost. I dont have money to just hand out to people who dont have a system setup for troubleshooting. Sorry for a long story but my question is is there anyone who can help me fix this issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] marcviado:
I'm new to the S5 literally got this phone 2 days ago. So far I'm loving it everything is good..until I get to the fingerprint sensor. Anybody else Dissapointed on how unacurate this thing is? I like the idea of having it, but they need to fix it or update It somehow. 9/10 times I have to put my password in instead.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LeKtRiCzzz:
I get mine to work with one hand 98% of the time and I can use 4 fingers rather than 3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cjranucci:
I wish I could be disappointed. My work disables fingerprint security to access their network. I have to use pin or password.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
The quality of the fingerprint makes a huge difference. My wife works in a pretty caustic environment and her fingers get kinda mucked up, nothing we can do will make it work for her. However, it works flawlessly for me.

Another issues is the limited size of the actual scanner makes it dificult to read the fingerprint acurately
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] brivette007:
+1. No issues here. I was pleasantly surprised.

Though my laptop and my work's timeclock have fingerprint scanners that work in much the same way -- so I've had plenty of practice. :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] nicetucu:
For the life of me can't get the finger print scanner to work well at all. I tried three different times setting it up with very low success rate lol.

Finally just do a swipe pattern out of shear frustration. I would love to do it one handed with my left thumb and tried to set it up this way to no avail.

I have better success if I hold it with left hand and swipe with pointer on right hand. Swipe pattern is so much easier with a 100% success rate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djmouse:
Works for me every time, youhave 3 finger prints you can asign, use the thumb you unlock for all three doing them in different angles, even switch the angle up on every swipe when setting one print up, figure out the motion you would normally use to unlock it and try setting it up that way.I actually set my right thumb up for 2 of the the 3rd I used my left thumb just in case I'm holding the phone in my left hand, but you don't need to swipe your thumb vertically down, as long as your swiping the whole button it should be good, start with your thumb horizontal and move it a little counter clockwise each time till set up is done.works lawless for me unless I'm at work and my finger is dirty, witch is good because it knows, it's very accurate if set up properly., hope that helps

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] delawaredrew:
I've tried numerous times to set it up but it rarely works for me. I had to enter password so many times I disabled it all together. I'll admit that my fingers are frequently roughened or cut at work but even using fingers on my left (non-dominant) hand which are relatively unscathed only gets me success once in awhile.

Maybe it is just not usable for those who work with their hands, bummer as it seemed promising. I rarely had any lock on other devices and thought this might be a lock I could use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djmouse:
Try again it works , good too, 9 outa 10 times for me,I'm a union electrical so my fingers are always getting cuts and scratches, blisters from spinning wire nuts. Try setting it up like I suggested use your thumb horizontal to the phone or like 45 degree angle like you would if you were doing it one handed, then turn on your power key to lock your phone instantly so you can test it without waiting for screen to time out to lock.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] delawaredrew:
Trying again. Results are better - if I swipe slowly it gets most attempts but not every time. I'll try it for a day and see if I improve, maybe it is more sensitive to angle and velocity than I am. That may improve as I repeat the movement enough to get used to it. However security isn't a large concern so I'm not too upset; it's primarily just the usual annoyance when something doesn't work for me.

Maybe I am just I am expecting too much, do you have to swipe pretty slowly?

Sound enhancer from the Sprint-exclusive 'Harman/Kardon HTC One M8' (link)

Download this file and follow instructions. After flashing this, and flashing the adsp firmware zip, and disabling boomsound in the customize/ACC/default.xml, everything is working fine.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] x70xchallengerx:
I asked the guy who did it 'lyapota' and I'm waiting on a response.

in the thread he said to try this:

Yep, it works on my side. Try next steps:

1. Flash mod.

2. Reboot phone and leave him about 5 minutes.

3. Don't plug headphones.

4. Try ring sound, notifications sound.

5. Try player with speaker.

6. Try player with headphones.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] x70xchallengerx:
Ok so I think it's safe to say it won't work 'out of the box' for us, I believe VZW may need a slightly different XML, I'm trying to contact the dev who came up with this mod.

Thanks you two for testing this

Stoked to try this out. I'll be watching to see if we can get this on our VZW m8's. I'm sure it will happen eventually...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] x70xchallengerx:
I see people in the ViperOneM8 thread on the HTC One M8 forums talking about an H/K firmware, enabling H/K and disabling Boomsound, and the next Viper update possibly fixing the loss of Data on VZW/UK devices after having flashed the H/K xml mod... so I mean I've only just looked a little but it sounds like there's a new FW that comes with the H/K sprint device??

check this thread, page 295 and forward: LINK

EDIT: Ah yes, here's the thread: SPRINT HK FIRMWARE/RUU

By no means should anyone flash this, but just saying, it exists. We just need this firmware or at least the working bits from it flashable on our device.. right?

I tried manually placing all the bits EXCEPT default.XML in the proper places (with proper permissions) but no dice. I did go into our stock default.XML and set Harman and Music Channel to true too.

That said, I still have data. This is on cleanrom.

So, it seems there are other bits inside the default.xml that makes it work in addition to other settings that break our data. Sometime later tonight I'll try and compare the two and see what I can come up with.

It's like line 136 I believe
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] x70xchallengerx:
As far as I know, I think the vital parts needed for the actual HK functionality are in the new 1.56 sprint HK firmware :/ we probably gotta wait till someone here gets that as a FW zip for our VZW phone.

I could be wrong idk, I'm not a dev :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Div033:
Probably... Maybe its a difference in the settings app or something. I didn't even check to see if applying the provided default XML would make the option appear, but I'm assuming it doesn't.

Sucks because after updating my FW boomsound seems to be much louder/distorted than it did when I was on release FW. Its possible it was always that way but I doubt it. I'm very sensitive to loudness distortion.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nickmilla15:
Someone please try taking your default xml (Verizon) and setting line 136 (I believe) to support Harmon to true. If that line isn't there take if from a sprint default xml (JUST THAT LINE). Then swap the default xml you modified with the one in the zip. Worst that can happen is you don't have hk audio truly enabled, just the setting. But it shouldn't hurt your data. Please nand, try this, and report

This is equivalent to what I've done. Nothing shows up in settings but data isn't borked either. The Harman line is there in our default XML, so no copying is needed.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] nickmilla15:
The zip is useless. Not even close to what the best have right now. It may have kernel and firmware tie ins. If that's the case only regular sprint variant will probably get it.
