[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxip:
I've had mine for 3 months and am generally very happy with it. As has been said, it does scratch easily but I did drop it on a tiled floor and a few scratches were the worst of it. It's fast, has an excellent screen, good camera (average in 'Auto' mode) and the waterproofness has been tested successfully !

Battery life was superb but isn't as good with 4.4.2 IMHO - still not bad though. Can get a full day's use and still have 30% left
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkmystel:
This was obviously the phone that I really wanted and I totally love it :D

The perfect "phone" cause I don't consider anything over 4.5" a phone :p too big for me

You'd better by some screen guard :) for both front and back, also you could replace the plastic back with a glass one

And waterproof it sure is, as long as it is fresh water and the flaps are properly closed, if used in sea or pool, better wash with clean water later on :)

Overall a really good phone :)

The phone performs well but there are some issues, u should be aware of before buying..

Buying sony phones like almost getting lottery.. None knows whatvu will get inside..

1. Some devices are having flash bleed issue

2. There are two dusplay panels, AUO and JDI.. AUO is not as good as JDI

3. Many users are getting touch issues after some days of buying

4. Some members reported water leakage on their device..

But only point 2 and 3 is mostly annoying.. So if these two issues dont bother u, u can buy this phone.. The battery life is really awesome and performance is alsi awesome.. I am happy with this phone.. Just that touch problem making me worried..

See my thread about the touchscreen issues, one of the links in there links to a YouTube video showing the issue:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2770293

Particularly annoying if you use swipe to unlock or swype text as sometimes it can take a few attempts for it to work. If I'd have known about this issue, I'd have waited until it was fixed before buying. Other than that it seems like a good phone, although only had it a week.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkoushik07:
There is no fix because this is hardware issue.. If u r having this issue frequently, then go to service centre..

Are you sure? Talk online is that a firmware update could fix it. Anyway, the place where I got it from is willing to replace it so hopefully I wont have this issue with the next one. Not holding my breath though as I imagine the replacement will be from the same batch since it's from the same place.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkoushik07:
Who is confirming about software update? I must say he does not have enough experience in this regard.. And as I told none knows why this problem happens, this problem can happen again after replacing touch screen.. In my previous micromax, the problem started when I used to plug in and after some days it got worse and the problem started after unplugging too.. Btw I got same problem in my z1c just once when it was plugged in charger..

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inovazn628:
Hey this is my first post and Im sorry if some of this is a repeat, I looked around for a little bit and wasnt able to find any answers.

I have a note 3 on verizon and i finally got it rooted on MJE. I have SuperSU installed as well as xposed installer as well as wanam xposed and a couple modules. I was trying to update via OTA and it constantly gives me error 402. I have tried hiding superuser and it says on odin? i believe that im on the offical rom and everything.

i just cant get onto kit kat no matter what i do. it downloads and once it tries updating i get the error.

Is there anything im really missing out on with kit kat? I want to install S view all covers and also want the XLTE. thats the main reasons for me wanting to update.

Is there something wrong with my phone? How can i get the update now? Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfld:
You need to be unrooted stock to accept the OTA. Currently no way to root the ota. However there is a kitkat build (nc2) that was rooted. This is the build that everyone is working off of, so you can just flash the firmware / nc2 rom and you will be on kitkat rooted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inovazn628:
Thanks for the reply!

I've heard of people still taking the Ota while keeping root by putting supersu on survival mode though. Should I check that off and then click unroot in Supersu to take the Ota? Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donc113:
You do NOT need to be unrooted, but you do need SuperSU to be in survival mode.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inovazn628:

Have you ever installed safestrap or anything similar?

Nope I just I have supersu. I disabled superuser and then I Uninstaller all the modules. I also uninstalled the framework for xposed. Is there anything else that could be causing it?

I thought I would never post 'coz I am very good at trying to look for issues I have with my MDA but my current dilemma had me really stumped. I have this "file" on my miniSD card named tE and is 1.5gig and I just can't delete it. It all happened when I installed emoze and sync'd with my Outlook. "My Documents" was deleted from my SD and this file came up but I just can't delete it. My MP3's and video files are gone but my sd card still reads the same amount of space like all my media are still present! Please help!

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I tried that already and even used an sd adaptor to try to delete the file but all my efforts were futile.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] jack1969:
Hello!

Here you can found a little guide to downgrade your i9000 from 4.4.2 to 4.x.

Tested by me with my device and Slimkat rom.

Software needed:

Odin v1.85 https://www.dropbox.com/s/bfvhbcdev7j0qvd/Odin3 v1.85.exe

Devil kernel: https://www.dropbox.com/s/98jjghepz6gqlh2/Devil3_1.9.5_Jelly_Helly_i9000_CFS_BLN_CMC_20121122.tar

1) start Odin

2) be sure autoreboot and reset time are checked

3) put your device in download mode

4) connect the phone to your pc

5) in Odin choose devil kernel as "PDA"

6) push start button in Odin

7) at the end, the device will autoreboot.

Disconnect it to the pc. The device will load the latest rom that you had.

Reeboting in recovery you will be able to flash any rom.

Hope it will be usefull for someone.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
You do know that go into recovery mode you got to press volume UP ,home button and power button, (volume down ,home and power is for download mode) Just retry pressing the correct buttons. Doens't phoenix rom have extended power menu where when you click on reboot from the ROM/Android system you get options of going into recovery/download/reboot?

[MENTION=4648087]eddytan95[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddytan95:
Yes I do press the correct button,

Up+home+power

And

I did reatart into recovery but it turns me into download mode...which I don't know why after I flashed v18.8 phoenix rom....

It's not exactly the same as down+home+power download mode wherby this step show me whether I want to go into download mode by pressing up or restart by pressing down...

But the "recovery mode" which turns into download mode...it didn't ask me anything and directly turns into download mode
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnote74:
Sounds like recovery mode is messed up have you tried twrp yet to see if it fixes the issue?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddytan95:
Is it safe for that? Since phoenix rom request me to use philz touch?

I have tried flashing CWM recovery but it ends up with screen flickering or flashing with Galaxy Note II logo if I enter the recovery mode
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnote74:
A recovery is a recovery what a rom states is what they think works best to flash it. If you are having trouble I would use twrp as its good at flashing roms to.

ok..thanks..i try it now...but is it safe or possible if i flashed TWRP...after that i try to flash Philz again?

btw, can i ask a stupid question?

is it possible if i replace TWRP with Philz Touch? flashed via odin using this file?? "philz_touch_6.41.6-n7100.tar.md5"
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnote74:
Yes use pda and flash the openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.2-t03g.img.tar then download the philztouch zip and try flashing it through twrp.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddytan95:
ok done...just i don't know why...when i press up+home+power for a long time...it goes into download mode instead of recovery mode...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimusPRIME:
Turn off your phone,

Press three buttons simultaneously &

Release power button when note2 N7100 logo appears.

Plus, install mobile odin pro from play store & Forget PC Odin things. & flash Stock Roms , recovery(all .Tar files) stuff at your fingertips & on the go.

Except if you want to flash bootloader then of course it requires PC odin.

I managed to get it booting to download mode one time after flashing the rom via odin.

I then flashed the recovery.tar found here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53093720&postcount=8

Yeah, keep pressing the power key the whole time.

Press POWER - VOL DOWN - HOME

Screen Cycle, while the screen is off,

Release VOL DOWN - HOME, and keep Pressing POWER

And one sec after press VOL DOWN - HOME again.

And it will work.

Note it took me ~30min to get it right, so just keep trying till it works.

I just bought an Xperia phone M2. It is block in the Vodafone network.

What to do, what are the steps to use it on another network?

Thank you,
[Sony Xperia M2] CeBits:
There is no way around it I am afraid. Your bootloader cannot be unlocked and that's it. I am in the same boat as you, except mine is from T-mobile. The only thing that we can hope for is that someone will find a way to root the Xperia's M2 stock 4.3.2 rom without flashing a custom kernel or recovery. Hopefully there will be custom roms based on stock in future, but we can forget about roms like CM, Paranoid etc.

Oh and btw, simlock is not the same thing as perma locked bootloader. You can remove the simlock, but that won't change the "Bootloader unlock allowed:" to "Yes". This was already confirmed in the Xperia SP forums. There were rumors that custom mobile shops can change the bootloader status, but we are yet to see any confirmation about this. Also, even if they can do it, it is still questionable if the fastboot mode will be there at all.
