Hi All,

I've been reading this forum for a while now and I'n currently looking for a active car holder. I've seen all kinds come by, but the one that I (and others I think) are looking for is no were to be seen!

The Veripart is a step in the right direction. But I don't need a extra speaker AND I want my MDA vertical! Is it so hard for the cradle developers to create one like that.

Does any know of a cradle like that?

PS, sorry for the tone in this post, but I just get a bit frustrated that something so easy could be so hard to get.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] bryson:
Hi, Welcome to the forum,

Have you seen the Brodit holders for the Exec/JasJar etc.

They offer Passive holders: code 848649, (just holds it) or Active with Cig Charger code: 968649 or hardwired to vehicles power code: 971649.

All the holders allow you to have it either in vertical PDA mode, or Laptop mode with exposed keyboard, and also full rotation for landscape view for sat nav etc.

Have a look at: http://www.dsldevelopments.com/brodit/brodit.asp either do a search by PDA make, the codes above or the 968649 is listed further down the homepage.

All the holders either fit onto a vehicle specific proclip (choose your car make, model and year) or onto a windscreen suction mount.

Hope that helps you decide, many users have these and have posted positive comments on the forum about them.

Cheers,

Bryson

Hi Bryson,

Yes I know.. But I just hate to have to connect the power supply each time manualy. When you look at the veripak one it has the connector build in. You just slide the mda in the cradle and youre done.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] newbie2:
I'm using an Arkon vehicle mount for my Wizard. It's also a windshield mount with a tightening swivel head that can be locked into either vertical or horizontal position. Take a look here -- http://www.arkon.com/pdamount.php

There's several different models of their mounts available on the site. The one I'm using is the CM920 model. Works fine for me!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] scraane:
But then I would still be plugging the power in manualy every time
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] hshortt:
I had my Wizard mount from www.dsldevelopments.com dealing with Bryson. Worked great and I'm going to order the Hermes one from him too. I suppose you could always doctor the power cable and wire it in properly behind your dash.

Cheerio

[Sony Xperia L] emppu:
Hi

Here is the thing,I bought a xperia l few days ago

And he Still have a locked Bl,but i find out That i

Can enter into fastboot mode.is That possibel.i always tought if i had a locked Bl i cant access fastboot. :eek:
[Sony Xperia L] Ben Ling:
can enter fastboot ?

dial *#*#7378423#*#*, go to Service info>Configuration

check the bootloader was allowed to unlock or already unlocked.
[Sony Xperia L] emppu:
It says not allowed
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
So I've got a Z2 on O2UK and I have a locked bootloader which is a bit of a bummer, has anyone had much luck getting root on the locked bootloader, I know it will come eventually, but without root I'm seriously considering returning the phone and getting a HTC One M8, which I don't want to do as I love the design of the newest xperia phones.
[Xperia Z2 General] feis:
We all have locked bootloaders, difference is some are unlockable and some are not. And no, so far no root exploit without unlocking bootloader first
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
Yeah I know we do, I can't unlock mine, it's says NO when I check. I might have a go following some guides in the Z1 and Z1 Compact threads, there must be a way.
[Xperia Z2 General] feis:
As of this moment sadly there are no root exploits, you can save yourself trouble. Usually someone finds exploit in older firmware version and uses it to gain root, but z2 shipped with 4.4, which due to google policy shouldnt have any. But fear not, device is not even worldwide available yet, im sure in some time someone is ought to find a security hole
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I know which is a shame, I might return it and just get the M8.
[Xperia Z2 General] feis:
If root is such a big deal that you cant wait, then yeah, changing phones or provider is probably best for you
[Xperia Z2 General] mcteague:
Wait, that's what I say
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I have apps that depend on root, that's the only issue. And we no known exploit on KitKat on any Xperia phone, I find it unlikely we will get root soon, unless we get the mythical JellyBean FTF file for our phone, which I find unlikely we will.
[Xperia Z2 General] kakkaroto:
Get the phone through Carphone Warehouse or Phones 4 U, you'll get a network unlocked handset with an unlockable bootloader.

The phone I got through 3 is both.
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I got it through contract upgrade with o2 and got an xperia z2 tablet for £100 so if I take it back I have to take the tablet back, which I don't want to do, so I'm in a difficult decision.
[Xperia Z2 General] kakkaroto:
Ah I see your predicament. Maybe check to see what deal cpw or p4u can do, I'm pretty sure you can upgrade through them.
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
Not on o2 refresh which is a shame as I would have done it there.
[Xperia Z2 General] feis:
As far as i know if you change phone your 100quid tablet deal will not be valid aswell?
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
Yeah its not so I have to take the tablet back also, which is something I don't want to do.
[Xperia Z2 General] Seifer1975:
Seriously dunno why some companies are so penny wise but pound foolish. Don't they know that ease of rooting can sell more phones than whatever advertising gimmicks?
[Xperia Z2 General] feis:
Tbh people here at xda is just a minority compared to global sales, so no, rooting is not something that would increase number of sales, what it would increase, is number of broken devices due to lack of knowledge in common user.
[Xperia Z2 General] BigladUK:
Have you received your Tablet then as I haven't seen anyone else who took the o2 deal even having received notification they are getting yet ?

Si
[Xperia Z2 General] ronak47:
As above.

I also got the phone from o2 but have had no confirmation of the tablet as yet.
[Xperia Z2 General] strongylad28:
I actually work for o2, and yes all the devices are locked bootloader. I was gutted when I got mine. Just hoping someone finds a way to get around it. I have faith!

With regards to the tablet, you would have to return it yes, as part of the deal.

People who are awaiting tablets, I have heard they can be shipped any time in May and its a gamble as to if you get a 4G or wifi variant of it.

I will chase it up for more info though on the timescales for everyone :)

**Edit** those asking about tablets know that it was for preorder customers only? Did you get a leaflet at the till / delivery and have registered on the Sony website to claim it?
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I have my tablet I didn't preorder either, I went in store asked about the deal and was offered it. I have a wifi model, didn't know I could have got a 4G one.
[Xperia Z2 General] BigladUK:
Yes got a leaflet and filled in the form online

Si
[Xperia Z2 General] corallus:
Which store was this??? It's a gamble if we even get ours.
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
It was in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, I got my Xperia Z2 and a Z2 Tablet, which is WiFi, I might take it back if I can get a 4G one. I have sold my Xperia Z2 as it had a locked bootloader and bought a Pay&Go from 3, I sold my Z2 for £460 and it cost me £470 for a model that is sim unlocked and has an unlockable bootloader :)
[Xperia Z2 General] BigladUK:
O2's £99 tablet deal is the z not the newly released z2
[Xperia Z2 General] corallus:
You can get a speaker from three now lol

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:56 PM ----------

Did you originally buy it outright or on refresh then pay off?
[Xperia Z2 General] sfex3best:
I Bought this exact same o2 deal too but i decided to cancel because of the locked bootloader and rooting issues I heard from you guys.

Thanks to these forums I can hold off for a z2 with an unlockable bootloader now :)
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
It's a new z2 deal they are doing, I have it now I'm typing on it now. I already had refresh and I paid it off to get this. Sfex3best, you could have sold the phone like me and bought a payandgo model from 3, it's unlocked and allows a bootloader unlock.
[Xperia Z2 General] norti:
Please, stay on topic :)
[Xperia Z2 General] 1iam5mith:
Where did you sell it for £460 at? I think this is a great idea!
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
Ebay, mate.
[Xperia Z2 General] 1iam5mith:
Eh I really hate selling a phone on eBay.

Sold a pristine Motorola Dext a couple years ago, buyer kicked up a fuss because they get poor Vodafone service at their house and eBay and PayPal sided with them! I was gutted! And to make matters worse they sent the phone back covered in scratches that where not there when I sent it... Dangerous place sometimes :/
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
The guy came to my house so its not a huge issue for me, it was a really good sale to be honest.
[Xperia Z2 General] 1iam5mith:
Yeah I might put it on there collection only.
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
So do we have root yet.
[Xperia Z2 General] flumps:
You mean the z1 tablet right? No way you got a z2 one for £100
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I got both the Z2 phone and the Z2 tablet, i paid £100 upfront to get the Z2 tablet, that is what deal i was offered in store and thats what i took, shame its only the wifi model.
[Xperia Z2 General] flumps:
Ahh, I see. Still, not too bad a deal really.
[Xperia Z2 General] lanc3lot:
So no root yet right?
[Xperia Z2 General] t0pstar:
Root=yes (unlock ? bootloader)

ROOT=no (lockt ?bootloader)

Gesendet von meinem D6503 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z2 General] strongylad28:
It is defo a Z2 tablet for £100. Should be for preorder customers only though lol, pulled a fast one in the store :P

Its pot luck as to if you get the wifi or 4G model, we got an update of the processes, and it actually says specifically "pot luck" lol, nice way of putting it!
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
Would I be able to take my tablet back, as they have 4g models on stock also.
[Xperia Z2 General] strongylad28:
Sorry thats meant to say defo not a Z2 tablet. The reason is o2 no longer sell the original Z tablet, so are getting rid of the old stock. Did you actually get it from the store at time of purchasing the phone, or did it get sent out to you? Unfortunately you have to just stick with what you have. Can change them. I'd post the messages about it from o2, but it specifically says not to be reposted lol, don't want to get in trouble
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
It is a Z2 tablet
[Xperia Z2 General] corallus:
Lol, staff in that store are thick as mince.
[Xperia Z2 General] kobz1973:
Have we not gone slightly off topic here ...

Please can MODERATORS clean this thread ...
[Xperia Z2 General] flumps:
That's a really good deal, mind you how much are you paying a month on contract? I'm getting the tablet at the end of the month at retail price of £399 for 16gb wifi
[Xperia Z2 General] nintendolinky:
I'm paying £42 as I get 5GB 4G, Unlimited Mins and texts, anyways could we not use a an existing kitkat exploit for our phones.
[Xperia Z2 General] strongylad28:
I really do hope root comes soon :( there's a few things I'd like to remove that are pre installed
[Xperia Z2 General] Jackos:
You can disable most of the bloatware.
[Xperia Z2 General] nosidefcp:
Any news about the root?thanks

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] agtwork:
Hi guys,

I'm running a Verizon G2 that is currently stuck in a boot loop.

Here's what happened:

I was on reddit, and wanted to suppress the OTA update notification. Someone had suggested that I delete the files in the FOTA folder under cache. Well, instead of deleting them, I renamed them to have "bak" as their extensions. Anyway, I reboot my phone and now I'm stuck in a boot cycle. Lesson learned.

- I cannot access the download screen. Holding Up Vol and plugging in the USB cord to the computer doesn't work.​

- I can access the factory reset screen. I can select to reset the phone, but doing so just repeats the boot cycle. It's ineffective.​

- I can access the Hardware Key Input screen. Only the volume buttons work (through holding down all three buttons on boot)​

I can hold down the power button for 10 seconds to stop the boot cycle and turn the phone off completely.​

My phone is stock jelly bean with root for the benefits of the Wireless hotspot hack. I don't have any fancy boot loaders or extra stuff.

Can anyone suggest how I can fix this?
