I set my camera mode to intelligent auto but everytime I go back to my camera later, it's back on regular normal.

Same thing goes for ISO in auto. If I have it set to a certain ISO it just goes back to auto when I go into the camera later.

Is there anyway to save settings?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexvtr:
Stock camera app is designed like this, nothing you can do.

If you are rooted, you should give Xdabbeb's mod a try:

It's basically the stock app with tons of new features.

Among the new features is that it remembers your settings when you close the camera app.

I just received my new Sony Z Ultra GPe and I couldn't be happier with the device performance but I was really pissed to find that Google decided to remove the FM Radio application that Sony had included on the regular Sony Xperia Z Ultra!!

I tried installing the same APK that is included on the regular Z Ultra but the installation didn't work because it's a system app and my device isn't rooted.

I tried using Spirit FM but unfortunately that failed to activate the built in FM radio and didn't work.

Is there an FM radio app that we can use on the GPe ?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
Could you post a link or upload the Sony FM apk so I could test with rooted GPe?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
There you go:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
I tried three different apks, the one you posted and one that was nodded to work without headphones don't even show in app drawer. Third one was posted in a ROM thread for different Sony phone showed up but gives toast message saying it has quit working as soon as it trys to open. I wonder if it needs the odex file?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
Have you had any luck with Spirit FM ? I've read that it's supposed to work, but again that needs root?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
It does work! I had tried it before it was rooted not realizing it was required. The version I had purchased has been renamed "old spirit FM lite" and is no longer supported. Spirit1 seems to work but I didn't get Spirit2 to start. Anyways thanks for spurring me to test Spirit further.

Edit....uninstalled spirit lite and Spirit2 works, also has Bluetooth support.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
Is there a way the apk for the FM radio application from the original z ultra I posted above can be modified to work on our GPe?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Doomlord has successfully booted a Sony ROM (681) on his GPe now, so you'll soon have the chance to test the Sony ROM if you feel like it.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
Not really, I love the GPe experience, just missing some standard sw like the FM radio, note app, handwriting keyboard.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Yeah, that's the thing isn't it. I have the Xperia model, but i'm currently running the GPe ROM and i love it for its lightness, but with lightness comes minimalism, and i'm a true minimalist in real life and hate having stuff i don't use, BUT having to install a third party videoplayer if i'd like to stream something is incredible annoying. Stuff the stock Sony ROM does out-of-the-box is not possible on a clean AOSP build.

I still love it though, but once in awhile i just have to go back to the Sony ROM and get cozy. Everything there just works.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
Sorry for off topic but this seems as good as anywhere to ask.

1. Does uninstalling Sony apps cause issues?

2. Do Sony apps work with 3rd party launchers?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
How dare you go off topic! Just kidding.

- No, it depends on what you're deleting. You will end up soft bricking it if you delete SystemUI or any other important app/service/libs but you're safe if you only want to remove "bloat". I made a list of apps that are safe to remove ages ago, and it's somewhere in the Themes & Apps section, so check that out. Be sure to either have a NAND backup ready in case something goes wrong, or know how to recover from a soft brick (bootloop etc)

- Yes, but some or all Sony widgets won't work.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
Is there a way the stock Sony FM Radio app which I posted before can be modified to be installed without root (as a non-system app)?

I don't want to root my device for the moment but I want to be able to use the built in FM Radio.

BTW I was bummed with updated my GPe to 4.4.3 and found that Google still didn't include an FM radio app!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Google has never had a radio app, and that will probably never happen.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sab3elbromba:
So I've finally rooted my GPe, now I want to get FM radio working.

Can you please tell me the configuration you used to get Spirit FM working, keeps force closing for me!

I tried installing the Apk from the original Xperia ZU for the FM radio but that never showed up in my app list!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] adfurgerson:
First thing is I had it working on 4.4.2 and never tried it after updating. Now I am using a Sony Z Ultra and not the GPe anymore, sorry I can't recall what it took to get it working.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mikereidis:
If rooted, try the latest test release of Spirit2 here: http://d-h.st/vky

Or Spirit1: http://d-h.st/de8

Usually, it should "just work". If not, in Spirit1, send me a debug log. Tap the frequency button, enter the number 7 and tap "OK". After 20 seconds or so, press Send from your email client.

Google hates FM, so you don't find it on Nexus or GPE devices. Maybe Google One for "developing world" though, LOL.

ALL stock FM apps rely on "framework" code, usually proprietary and secret. Not a single GPE device has ever been able to run a stock FM app, only Spirit, which is low level and has mostly just kernel requirements. I'm just happy that Google's OEMs have accidentally(?) left the Qualcomm FM driver in the stock kernels.

I'm thinking about officially supporting Sony devices in Spirit2, and so I'm reading these forums to learn about different Z models. Used Z Ultras are now as low as $280 here, and new GPE as low as $350 so far,.But buying a phone is just a fraction of the long term cost learning how to root, unlock, flash ROMs without bricking, etc...

Mobile Network Type- Unknown

Service State- Out of Service

Mobile Network State- Disconnected

My IMEI still shows up and I can connect to WIFI and bluetooth. The only problem is I can't get a signal, not 2G or 3G (even LTE)

This started happening out of nowhere, I tried taking out the sim, factory resetting, wiping caches, changing the APNs, restarting the phone, and I even put the sim in a new phone (It got signal).

If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears! What's the point of this amazing phone if I can't call people with it?

How long did you have the phone before this happened? Did you dial *#*#4636#*#* to check the phone info and change the network type?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
What service are you with? I had this same exact issue a week ago with an LG G2. My Sim card would work in my Nexus 5 but wouldn't work in the G2.

After numerous factory resets I eventually called Metro PCS (my carrier) and I was told that whenever I put my Sim Card into a new phone I must always contact them and give them the new IMEI # so that the phone can work.

The Metro PCS rep claimed that they have a feature that disables the Sim from working in an unauthorized phone. I guess its to help with theft.

I know this is really OLD!!!!

but i just had the same issue today

with a NEXUS 5 running stock marshmallo 6.0.1 with the latest patches

, and yes... is not the phone is the carrier

MetroPCS do IMEI lookup

i had another phone before the NEXUS 5

so it is no just matter of swapping the SIM card from one phone to the other

you need to call CS and you told them that your phone is not registering on the network

and that you just swapped phones

So they ask you for the IMEI of the "new" phone

and your SIM card #

you reboot your cell

and VOILA!

now the phone registers in the network

Yes, Metro do IMEI authentication
[General Questions and Answers] NeoGraven:
Just got this phone from Boost, comparable to the HTC Desire (ZaraCL). Seems to be a decent phone!

Has anyone done any work with it yet, as far as rooting and recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] NeoGraven:
Gotta say, I'm liking this phone. Headphone volume is lower than my previous phones, and I don't like that the default font/DPI size makes everything look big. I set the font size lower so the fonts aren't do big and it looks much better to me. Battery life is pretty good, at the end of the day I'm around 70% after pretty hard usage (about an hour of music throughout the day, several phone calls, a good bit of web, and a lot of app usage). Not a lot of reasons to have root, other than to have control of your device. I need to make portable backups via TB but other than that I am satisfied thus far

[General Questions and Answers] NeoGraven:
Compare: LG Volt vs Moto G vs HTC Desire 601

I left Virgin Mobile and went with Boost, leaving my HTC Desire 601 (Zara CL version) behind. When I went to Boost, I got the Moto G, and then purchased the LG Volt when it came out. Comparing this to the HTC Desire 601 from Virgin Mobile, the two phones are comparable. The LG Volt has a little bit bigger viewing area on screen, though the DPI is denser on the HTC so you see 'more' on the screen. Decreasing the font size on the LG helps this. The HTC Desire and Moto G are pretty much the same in this regard except that the Moto G has softkeys which take up some of your viewing area at the bottom of the screen. I would say the Volt and Desire601 are neck and neck, with the Moto G a little behind in this regard.

Videos look great, and the built in sound on the LG isn't bad either, though the HTC is noticeably better. Also, I noticed that the headphone volume on the LG is lower than what was on the HTC; not a deal breaker for me though, it's plenty loud. The Moto G is louder as well (it lets you exceed the 'safe' level), though the quality with built in speakers is about the same as the LG.

The speed seems on par with both the Moto G and HTC Desire 601. One thing I noticed is that both the Moto G and HTC Desire 601 have similar battery life which is pretty good. I can get a full day of fairly heavy usage out of either phone. With the LG, I can really push the usage and still have battery to spare at the end of the day.. to the tune of 40% or so, where the HTC and Moto would be around 10-20% for the same usage. This is attributed to the larger battery in the LG Volt.

The big difference of the three phones is that the Moto G is 3G only. The HTC and LG are both 4G. I think call quality is be a little better on the LG compared to the MotoG and HTC.

The LG does seem to be abel to handle WIFI better than the other two as well. Bluetooth works as expected.

The LG has better SD card handling than either of the other two; the MotoG has no SD Card capability so it automatically loses in that regard. The HTC is a pain to make use the SD card for what you need since it also employs an 'internal' SD card on top of the internal phone storage. The LG is straightforward and simple, you get phone storage and whatever your SD card is and it has a good 4GB available phone storage to begin with.

All in all, the MotoG is great if you need a really good but cheap phone. If you are like me and like having a little more under the hood, the LG Volt is a better bargain that the HTC Desire, but your plan will be a little more. Both Boost and Virgin Mobile give you unlimited text and data, but you can save a little on your monthly expense by sacrificing talk time with Virgin Mobile. One of the reasons I went to Boost (other than much better customer service) is so that I can get unlimited talk time cheaper than I can with Virgin Mobile.

Ruling: LG Volt from Boost is the best choice.
[General Questions and Answers] jbaggs75:
I know this is off topic from your original post, but how is Boost service? I'm on Page Plus now, but can't find a phone that I like that works with them (I don't want to have to flash a phone).
[General Questions and Answers] NeoGraven:
I would classify Boost service as a 7, while classifying Virgin Mobile and Verizon as a 6. I haven't had dropped calls, though bad weather and such effects the quality of the call (granted, that will happen to just about any carrier). I've not had issues with receiving calls or texts, or getting dropped calls like I did with Verizon or Virgin Mobile if that helps any.

Regarding root, I haven't tried this yet (too nervous), but would the following work?

In this XDA post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48709232&postcount=869&nocache=1&z=5419075393583626 about the LG G2, it implies that with KitKat 4.4.2, all you need to do to get root is (scroll to bottom of post for manual 4.4.2 method):

1. install the correct ADB drivers on your PC (I used the clockworkmod universal drivers)

2. adb devices (make sure your device is listed)

3. adb reboot recovery

(when booted in recovery, select: 'apply update from adb' with power button)

4. adb sideload kk_root.zip (you can extract this from ioroot25.zip)

The post implies this should be it! I took a look at kk_root.zip, and it is not very device specific; it just installs su, sudaemon, etc.

I made sure to do this so there were no unintended consequences. You delete the laf partition, which forces fastboot mode and takes the place of download mode. I dont know what would happen if you didnt restore the laf partition before exiting fastboot.
