[Sony Smartwatch] tangcla:
Just wondering if anyone else has a similar issue - every so often it will just decide to reset, and get into the unpaired mode. On the phone I have to un-pair, and re-pair the device.
[Sony Smartwatch] thearif:
It happened to me only once. I think it is a memory issue. If it gets more than it can handle, it resets itself but this is just a wild guess.
[Sony Smartwatch] mckenzis:
Happens to me every so often too! Very annoying.
[Sony Smartwatch] bohrokkaita:
I am observing this too, not very often though. I do lose BT connectivity sometimes, however, which is fixed by switching BT off and on again in the watch settings.
[Sony Smartwatch] marcusorwen:
Happend to be me once too but was not such a big deal had to restart it and then wait untill the apps got back to the watch.

But might be that the watch runs out of RAM as thearif suggested.
[Sony Smartwatch] tangcla:
So what would be the best way of resolving this - have less apps installed on the watch?
[Sony Smartwatch] mnemonic22:
I have a hunch that this may happen when the watch has been out of Bluetooth range of the phone too many times. I have had this happen unpairing happen on several occasions, usually when I have gone up- and downstairs a few times without my phone, or if I leave my phone in my office at work and go to pick up print-outs....
[Sony Smartwatch] enigma_x:
For me this happens even when the watch lays next to the phone. It doing it few times daily. Goes off and then back on. It doesnt loose pairing or connectivity, well... only few times i have had to reboot the watch to get it ON (or turned off the Bt from the phone).

Sent from my phone - Note 10.1 (N8000)
[Sony Smartwatch] dersie:
I have this problem few times also. It happen often when I change or modify watchface on Sony app editor.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
So, I have an iPega Bluetooth gamepad that worked fine during the day of 4.2.2-4.3 (on my Nexus 4) but after the KitKat update, it doesn't detect other buttons than the directional pad. Skip forward 3 months, I got my self a Nexus 7 FHD and definitely fell in love with the USB OTG support. Then, I had the idea of plugging my computer gamepad through the USB OTG and the same thing happened, only directional keys are detected.

Did KitKat break some gamepad support? How was playing games with gamepad before the KitKat update? Were you guys able to play games with PC gamepads?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] haidernawaz99:
Hmm, maybe some incompatablity issues. Can you tell us the Gaming Pad Model, and did you use that "iPega" Bluetooth Gaming Pad?

And, do tell that is the iPega designed for phone/tablets only ....?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
Sorry for the late reply, night time. Yeah it's designed specifically for phones and tablets, not for PC. I forgot the model number, I'll check it out when I'm near a computer.

Yeah, before the KitKat update, I could play many games including Asphalt 8, MC 4, NOVA, etc using the Ipega pad but since the update, none works as explained.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] mdamaged:
You might have to hack together a Vendor_*_Product_*.kl file for your device ID, here's an example of a kl file for xbox's controller. You can find the identifier and product on your system logs when the device plugged in. You may even be able to use an existing kl file, just rename it.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
That is really interesting, I'll go try it out. Thanks man! :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
So I read the link you attached and as suggested checked out what my USB Game Controller is via logcat and found out it's a "Dragon Rise USB gamepad". I Googled it and found the driver file from this thread (download link here). Extracted the zip file, moved the .kl file into /system/usr/keylayout, changed the permission to 644 (rw-r--r--) and restarted.

It doesn't work on other games than Asphalt 8 and The Amazing Spiderman 2 but at least I can play those two games now, so yeah...

Spoiler content hidden.

I haven't tried the Ipega controller yet but will do when I'm in the mood. Thanks again [MENTION=5490227]mdamaged[/MENTION]
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gwaldo:
There should be an app that spoofs a controller(from many popular ones) then you map buttons/keys/sticks to it.. ie to fix gameloft no mapping options
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
Yeah there are apps like that such as Tincore Keymapper but the interface is really confusing, I haven't found a user friendly app for that :\
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] gwaldo:
Confusing is an understatement lol

I've contacted tincore devs asked them the same question.. no reply..

2014 and no button mapping on mobile games?? oh well.. maybe 2015
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] uchihakurtz:
Actually if you buy some good branded controllers, there are specific app for them that lets you do this. Even the SixAxis Controller thing can too, but nah, I don't feel like spending that much money on mobile gaming :D

[Hardware Hacking General] agnelvishal:
Even if you have any anti theft installed in your android phone and lose your phone , the stealer can easily wipe off everything by accessing bootloader with volume keys. By this way you cannot track your phone.:crying:

Bootloader is written specific to the hardware by manufacturers but there are number of open source bootloaders like u boot:). Now my question is how to put password for bootloader?, What programming language is used in bootloaders.?Where can I find source code?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xlr8torZ28:
Not sure if this is the right forum or page for this thread but here goes. I have an Android phone that has worked flawlessly for me. A couple of weekends ago I went out to eat with some friends and forgot my phone at home. When I got home I found my phone sitting on top of my shop vac where I left it. I noticed that the battery indicator showed the phone almost dead which was odd. I put it on the charger over night as I always do. The next day I noticed the phone losing about 10% battery every hour. I assume the magnet in the motor on the shop vac has done something to my phone. I tried 2 other batteries and got the same result. I reset the phone and also forced a reflash and still the same problem. Is there anything I can do to fix this??????

Just to be clear, the phone can usually go 2 days before it would go totally dead and literally changed that day.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xlr8torZ28:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaibhav Chauhan:

by the way this can be occurs due to faulty battery connect pin in mobile(actually i don't know what its called)

does the cingular rom for the 8525 include Push To Talk?? If so, is it in the extended rom as a cab file?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
No PTT in the initial release. I'm (just) now hearing that Cingular's PTT feature will be 3G based. It will be included in a subsequent 8525 update. No doubt, this will be tied in part to general 3G availability on Cingular's network.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
Thanks for the reply... i will just have to keep an eye out for it... i really wanna try to get this ported out to the 8125
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] goestoeleven:
By all early estimates you WON'T be able to use PTT on 8125, as it will be leveraging the Cingular 3G network...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
there should be a way to fix that somehow.. just need to play with it... all of the "regular" phones that have PTT are not using the umts network.. i believe its all on edge.. anything could be possible.. im sure that if i cant figure it out that someone is bound to be able to figure out.. there is a smart bunch on here :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
That's one of the dumbest damned things I have ever heard.

Cingular's PTT only uses data to get the "buddy list" the rest travels as voice.

The phone knows no difference wap.cingular is wap.cingular regardless of the data, and with as small as the footprint is for 3G you would only be able to use it in about 10% of Cingular's coverage area which doesn't seem too good for a hyped feature.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gravejoker:
Interesting observation ... but then in a 3G network .. the voice is also over WCDMA and hence much better quality .. and reduce the load on the GSM network ..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
regardless of that... the regular "dumb" phones with the PTT feature do not utilize a 3G network... i guess the only way to really settle this is to get it and play with it on my 8125... im willing to try and i know a few others are as well... doesnt hurt to try, either we can make it work or we cant... no use in quivling over something that hasnt been released yet..... why dont we all agree to just wait and see what happens?!?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] goestoeleven:
What makes you even think that PTT will be supported on WAP.CINGULAR? Cingular will be selling the 8525 as a premium device highlighting their 3G capabilities. There is also a strong likelihood that this phone (when sold) will be offered with PDAConnect (generally using ISP.CINGULAR) and not with a Media Net plan...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
i have the old school unlimited media net plan for $20 a month.. and i can use both connection, wap.cingular and isp.cingular on my 8125, and so can everyone else i know with no extra data charges... if you ask me people with pda connect are getting ripped off since its so much more expensive
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
Cingular is not going to change their entire PTT setup over this phone. All the phones that use PTT use wap.cingular to get it. It may be accessable through isp.cingular as well, never really cared engough to provision someone only with isp.cingular for anything to find out.

Also on a 3G network, the voice is not transmitted over UMTS through Cingular. That will be implemented late next year. Until then UMTS is used for data only. Cingular doesn't want to flood the system with VOIP as well as excessive data use.

Drive from a 3G market to a non 3G area while on the same call. When you lose 3G you will not drop the call. With UMTS you cannot handoff from 3G to GSM on a call.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
This is why PTT isn't operational yet: not enough 3G coverage. It's going to be a 3G only feature I'm afraid.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
why do you all figure its going to be based on 3G? Cingular currently does not even offer any phone that is 3G and PTT capable (granted there is only 2 listed on the cingular premier site)... they arent even all EDGE.. all the ones i have seen are all EDGE except the SE Z525a .... the PTT only uses the internet to grab the buddy list, the rest is done over the gsm voice transmission same as a 3g network
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
actually, its not. 3G voice is WCDMA. That's why simulaneous voice/data can occur on a 3G network. Here's a great post from RF9 on HoFo explaining the differences between WCDMA and GSM.

3G phones such as the TyTN have two completely different networking technologies in them you see. Each network handles both voice and data.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] shogunmark:
d@mn it, i forgot about that... And that is the only feasible answer on why it might not be possible.. except i doubt cingular is only going to make it work in a 3G area since its coverage is so small... but i guess we will have to wait and see what happens.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] RF9:
PTT and 3G

I admit I really don't know how PTT works. But I would think that they'd be able to get it to work with both GSM and W-CDMA on the same phone. W-CDMA an GSM are separate air interfaces, but at some point it all glues in to the same network, which is why a call can hand off from W-CDMA to GSM.

But I'm sure it's not trivial, and PTT is a totally different animal since it's really VOIP if I understand correctly.

Here's an interesting post from Howard Forums from kribo20

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=7974811#post7974811

This is the line of interest: "• All of the capabilities of a phone with Push-to-Talk (service will require a software upgrade in 2007), camera (Cingular 8525) or no camera (Cingular 8500) and many accessories"

So it appears that, according to Cingular University, the plan is to release it with PTT broken and make you upgrade it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] RF9:
While I have no confirmation either way, I'm told otherwise. I'm told you can "soft hand-off" from UMTS to GSM, but not GSM to UMTS. Once you hadn off to GSM, you can only return to UMTS once your call is complete (the next call can be back on UMTS)

But I'm just telling you what the Cingular people told me.

(Just for reference for other readers HSDPA/UMTS=W-CDMA if I'm using too many terms.)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
You really got beat with the stupid stick didn't you? PTT has been available for almost a year and it yet to be available on any 3G phones.

Please do some research (i.e. go to Cingular.com) before typing any further responses.

I've been employed with the company over 3 years, I am one of the few that have a clue as to what is going on within the company. You cannot handoff from one tech to another, just like with GSM-TDMA. Currently however 3G is for data only and voice still falls back on GSM and honestly I don't think it will ever really change because Cingular does not plan on extending it's 3G footprint much outside of metropolitan areas. By mid-2007 you will see where 3G is and where it isn't and it won't change much from that.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
@decepticon: your etiquette is indeed fascinating. Your Mom obviously didn't teach you the basics. Or, perhaps she will cover this more with you as you get older.

Speaking of the word "cover", I'll cover your opinion in 2007 when the 3G PTT service is released by Cingular, the company you perport to work for. I'm finished with this thread FTTB. You might want to google WCDMA-GSM handoffs as its received a lot of coverage since it was first accomplished back in 2001. In fact, this technology is fundamental to WCDMA rollouts throughout the world for obvious reasons.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
You're right, I just lie and say I work for the company and they lie and deposit a check into my account every 2 weeks. Either way, there is no UMTS to GSM handoffs because there is no UMTS VOICE NETWORK YET as well as no such plans to change PTT to a 3G only feature as 3G will never have the footprint that GSM has.

I love how some people can just make things up and pass it off as fact. I would show the Powerpoint, PDF's, and other material I have that covers this but I would rather not break an NDA just to prove some douche online is wrong.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
Of course, if what you say is all true then the burning question is this:

If Cingular PTT is GSM, then why won't the 8525 have it from day 1? Instead, pressing PTT chains to a dll called PTTServiceNotYet whose only purpose in life is to display "The Push to Talk (PTT) service is not yet available for your Windows Mobile device." Why would this be I wonder? The phone does do GSM after all... why not just add it to the slew of GSM phones that have PTT already on Cingular's network? Heck, I could use it to chat with my wife who has a Z520A (PTT phone according to Cingular's website) if only we could figure out how to actually make PTT work on hers too.... (must have the wrong plan :rolleyes:)

All very confusing: I've emailed my Cingular corporate technical contact for clarification.

btw: say hi to austin_boy for me while you're at it....

edit: the key here to the 8525 PTT delay could be Cingular's Kodiak PTT implementation which is voice based. This brings up one obvious cause for the 8525 PTT rollout delay: Not only does the Kodiak PTT system need to be implemented over WCDMA when the 8525 is on 3G coverage, but the WCDMA-GSM handoff itself needs to support this or the PTT session would drop when the phone passed out of 3G coverage.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] RF9:
PDA Connect doesn't preclude the use of wap.cingular. Furthermore, any other 3G (non PDA) phone that will use PTT will need to work on wap.cingular to work with Media Net.

Finally. Is PTT even tied to any data plan? Does it even use wap.cingular or isp.cingular? When you use PTT, it's not as if you're charged for the data it uses. It will just use whatever data setting is set up for the PTT feature. I have no clue what the PTT settings look like.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
I couldn't tell you why the feature is left out of the current rom, the device isn't out so please stop *****ing that it isn't working on the current rom which is still officially a test only rom.

You have a z520 which is not a PTT phone through Cingular. The z525 is a PTT phone so obviously you didn't reference the website yet. The only difference is new firmware but still in all your z520 will NOT work on Cingular's PTT system, get over it and get the correct phone.

No clue who austin_boy is but I am sure you could send him a nice card if you want to send your love.

Fact of the matter is, you again are basing everything you are saying off of ASSumptions and using a TEST ROM!

If the 8525 still doesn't have PTT when released then I am sure we will know why then but until you see something official from the company please stop coming to your own conclusions.

If you want PTT then get a PTT supported phone through Cingular, if you want a PDA then get one that works on Cingular's supported frequencies but please stop complaining that you want what you want when you want it and then complain when a huge company doesn't fall to it's nees to pacify you.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] decepticon:
PTT access wap.cingular to get your "buddy list" but nothing else, you are not charged for the small bit of data transferred.

I am not sure if it would work on isp.cingular but may have to find out using a friends phone. I don't have PTT myself nor does anyone I know but I can get my hands on a phone and check it out.
