[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
James: Same with my 521...

Touchscreen response was REAL BAD after updating to .402, then it went better and better day by day; strange phenomenon.

I also occasionally experience some touchscreen "numbness" after waking up the table with a double-tap, sometimes touch sensitivity suddenly becomes quite low just without any reason; touchscreen has problems detecting touches near the screen corners or doesn't react to touches at all. Solution: Switch to standby, and back on.

At the same time, the Android symbols (Back, Home, last apps) again become difficult to hit.

You can test this by slowly swiping your finger up from the lower bezel towards one of the symbols: If the touchscreen is ok, symbols get highlighted right after your finger reaches the lower edge of the symbol. If the touchscreen malfunctions, you need to move your finger up to the center of the symbols to get them highlighted.

So it smells like a software issue.

Touchscreen problems usually occur two to three times a day of normal use; so I regard it as acceptable - but the problem still isn't fully solved.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
I would say it's a hardware issue which Sony attempts to counterbalance with software patches.

Just like on the Nexus7 (2013). There sfhub released a touchscreen fix which made the problem bearable for most users (with some experimenting with different versions of the fix, because each device is different).

I wrote a PM to sfhub asking him whether he could disclose how his fix works so that Z2 Tablet users perhaps could apply a similar, variable, tailor-made fix to their individual device.

No response, unfortunately.

Perhaps some of you could send the same request to him, and perhaps then he reacts?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChodTheWacko:
every now and then, after double tap to wake, the tablet is extremely unresponsive.

I also just sleep/wake up again via power button and it's fine after that.

So my but feeling it's a software issue, not hardware issue.

I never had touch problems but after updating to the latest firmware, the tablet is unusable from time to time
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james_lpool:
what's annoying me is that Sony wont seem to admit that there is an issue, i was talking on their live chat to support and they said that's the first time anyone's mentioned that and isn't on any list of any known issues

Which doesn't fill me with confidence on how quick this may get fixed.

The speed in which is gets fixed may determine if i just send the tablet back to Amazon for a full refund, unfortunately i have bought the Sony case and magnetic charger now as well :(

I'm just really puzzled what to do, what can i do apart from sent it back if Sony wont even acknowledge they are aware of the problem and will release a fix soon :(

The only thing is because i have now bought the charger and case, i kinda want to keep it.

It was a direct replacement for my Z1 which i still have, and that is also updated to 4.4.2 now, but that shows no touch issues at all.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
What's very interesting and revealing:

When Sony was addressed a few days ago regarding battery problems on Tablet Z and a few phones after the Kitkat update, they immediately reacted!

They readily explained that it is a problem with the Google Play Services running amok and that a fix will come.

But it seems that just because this here is a Sony problem (and not one for which another company can be blamed like in the above one), Sony simply doesn't react at all and obviously orders the service employees to lie and say that they haven't heard at all of a touch problem.

Boooo, Sony, shame on you!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
HAHA ! Exactly the same in Germany. Even after talking about that issue with the SAME person three days in a row, I still was told the problem was totally unknown. :D

Later, I had a more private talk with one of the support guys. He revealed to me there was an order from Sony to tell callers exactly that.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasenbein1966:
Ah, as I thought.

This is abysmal behavior by Sony, period.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degraaff:
Also on the Sony support forum, none of the official support staff has replied to any of the topics about touch screen issues. It seems they are just completely burying their heads in the sand...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LitoNi:
FW .402 didnt fix the touch screen issue. It is noticeably better than any FW from before.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Diomorgan:
Gosh, the touchscreen keep going back to home when i'm in a middle of fb conversatuion.

I was testing with chromecast +youtube: those swibe action to enlarge or fade out afe 99% imprecise...

Really wondering if I can return the item to amazon to fix this problem... :(
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degraaff:
Are you sure you're not just accidentally touching the home button while typing? That happens to me from time to time, which is a downside of having the navigation buttons centered compared to having them in the corner like on pre-4.4 Android tablets. I actually think Google should add a setting to choose if the navigation buttons on tablets are in the left corner, centered, or in the right corner. Having them centered also makes it awkward to reach these buttons when holding the tablet with two hands.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckfalls:
My how things have changed. After having fun with many iterations of droids (Eris, D2G, Bionic), I had a rude awakening with my recent Razr M purchase. It was already on an OTA which apparently won't allow for the bootloader to be unlocked. I WAS rooted and doing alright with that, but I took the KK update and just like that, no more root. I was mislead into thinking I could root after the OTA, but that was apparently wrong.

I am bound and determined to keep my unlimited data with VZW, but also want a phone that can be rooted and preferably allow for custom ROMs as I have enjoyed in the past. I would like to stay in the mid-2012 and forward range. Does anyone have recommendations on a phone that is conducive to root/bootloader unlock? Apparently VZW has been keeping up with the exploits found by the dev community (thus my razr m frustrations) and fixing them with OTA updates. Does have any recommendations?

I have done my own research and not found a ton. I've been looking for dev edition phones but they are spares and/or expensive. I have heard the HTC One is still quite open, any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Also, if this is not the most appropriate forum for this post, please advise with my apologies.

Sorry for the reply on own post. Is this the wrong board for this post? If so can someone direct me to the proper board?
[HTC Startrek] trublu01:
Is there a registry tweak to allow the speakerphone to stay enabled when you close the flip? Currently it ends the call.
[HTC Startrek] fowen:
I believe the same thing happened with the old MPx220 and the MPx200 but nothing was ever figured out for these phones.

I would like to know this as well.
[HTC Startrek] Jeff:
Bump - Speakerphone while lid closed...

Any news on this?

My Googling is telling me thus far - NO! NO! and NO!

Any Russian Gurus care to negate this?
[HTC Startrek] lewnetoons:
speakerphone

Ok, I am trying to figure this out, here is what I have so far,

I have two 3125's, one was running an old dopod rom and the other the most recent Cingular release. (will get numbers later)

On the old phone, if I hit the "lock keys setting" (press and hold home button), while on a call with the speaker phone on, I can close the phone, the call continues and the outer display shows the call info (ie, who the call is to and connection time)

One the newer phone, with the same setting, the phone just hangs up when you close it.

I backed up the old phone with sprite backup, then ran sprite on the newer phone thinking maybe the registry setting would carry over (in case I was missing something), but the newer phone still just hung up when closed during a call.

After several rom changes I remembered why I quit using the old phone, the charging port came loose and does not work, so my guess would be that the old phone stays on due to the broken charging port, what leads me to this is of course if you have the headset in, the phone can be closed while on a call.

Where does that leave us? It would seem that the issue is not a registry value change (although I won't give up on trying to find one) but a software issue and until someone figures out how to change it were are stuck with no closed speaker phone.

F.A.Q (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the difference between these builds and the official builds?

These are unofficial builds of AOSPA Legacy for the v500/LG G Pad.

ROM is built using the same source code (github) like the official one but with these following additions:

Compiled using linaro arm-eabi 4.7.4 14.04 (kernel code) & sabermod arm-linux-androideabi 4.8.3 14.05 (rom code) toolchain compilers

May contain some custom cherry-picks. Always see changelog for details.

Cross-compiled using those custom toolchains results in a more smoother, faster, and battery friendly ROM

What is Toolchain?

Nice !!

Thanks for your work man.

I have a slight issue though, I need to unmount my sdcard but I can't find the option in the "Storage" menu of the parameters where it used to be. Any suggestion ? (I search but could find anything)

Thanks !

<EDIT>

The "umount /storage/sdcard1" does unmount the sdcard but not as the option in the Paramaters/storage menu did.

My goal is to use AParted to make 2 ext4 partitions on the SDcard to use with Mount2SD and to have 80Gb of storage. Unfortunately, AParted asked me to unmount it even when unmounted.

So way around might be with a SD adaptator and a linux computer but I still wonder where this option of the storage menu went ???

EDIT:

Back to CM for me...this rom was not smooth, and OS would 'cut out' at weird times for no reason, and only show a banner that said ("Sorry, rom (or OS) stopped working") - but all would seem OK, and functions worked just fine. This only happened when making some setting change, if I recall correctly. Hover did work - (whatever that does as I never got to use it but it showed it activated)

Frankly, IMO, it had nothing better, or newer than CM. :(
[G Pad 8.3 Android Development] indian84:
I have never faced issues mentioned by you. The only issue I faced so far is the reboot when you click on safe volume popup. Try SlimKat.. Its a good ROM. I am not a big fan of cm. But its just a personal opinion. :)
