[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grungypoo:
Well I definitely think that Apple has their warranty service down to a tee.

I also think that Telstra's doing this too. What they're doing is creating an extra layer, where they just pretty much "accept" any errors, send it to warranty department to sort out and let you know what the result is. None of this "well, I think you're trying to screw the system, etc etc" talk.

Makes it alot easier. I was at the samsung experience shop and was told by someone who had no tech idea (in the tech/warranty support section, mind you) that I've tampered with the phone and there is no way it will be fixed under warranty, in an attempt to make me feel bad and walk away from trying to get a hardware error (power button,) fixed under warranty. When I tried to explain to them how the bootloader works and how you can reset the counter, they took it as an act of aggression and told me flat "no, you can hand it in but we'll know. Your risk."

I mean, there's no need for that as the phone's going to repair centre to get looked at but they just need to get that swipe in definitely doesn't help add to the customer service experience. But that's pretty much how it is for customer service in Australia.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeremy.shi:
Saying about Telstra, just not long ago, a guy on WP posted something about their warranty policy. He said he was asked to sign a piece of paper to declare that if the fault was determined to be caused by the user, he would be charged for the service. I guess they just don't say it out loud to you. Instead, they ask you to sign a legal document that is pretty much an open cheque. However, I never had any personal experience with them. It's just what I read on the internet.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grungypoo:
Sounds about right, and that's pretty standard tho'.

I think it's better that way because the techs make the decision based only on the phone they see, not the person who has it.

The only part I'd have a problem with is if they charge people automatically as opposed to giving them a quote first. But then again it stops people from "trying to get it fixed under warranty," if you know what I mean.

In any case, I was at the Samsung shop again today and they guy asked questions about the phone. At first the phone seemed like everything was working, which embarrassed me and had the guy asking if I got the phone wet, but then it started bootlooping, so they swapped it for another phone. I'm still looking at getting a z2 tho'.

hey thanks for the info but has anyone had any reports for hardfaults directly with sony becuase sonys websites say there may be a charge just for unlocking it but they arnt clear?

Why would one unlock the boot loader?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test9k:
To install a custom ROM.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeremy.shi:
I went to Telstra today to get my phone fixed as Sony advised me that the issue I had was likely to be a hardware problem. It went really well. He did play around with it a bit and verified the problem. He said I would get a brand new unit within a week and he didn't ask me to sign anything. Hopefully I can get my hands on a perfect one soon.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.R™:
You didn't sign anything? So basically there's no official record of them taking your phone, hopefully all goes well but if not your screwed :-/

Hopefully you remember the guy's name and when you came in if it goes awry.

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] MayB4ck:
Maybe sir arco will save us again when the sources are released :) You never know.. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eri000:
a port may come soon but we have to wait until it is final so they release cm 12
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] dqsnunes:
That isn't necessarily true, for example CM 10.1 released by arco still in beta4 version
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] eri000:
the CM team announced that there will be NO CM version until the google releases the final image of android L on AOSP.This doesn't mean we will have a final stable version of cm immediately BUT we will only see a cm12 build when final android L gets merged into aosp.

^That is for other phones that get CM OFFICIAL.For ancora we have to wait a little bit more for unofficial cm, which is based on official cm.So no official--- no unofficial (arco if he has time to mess with it,or others)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] matthewtham:

Android L Port For Nexus 4

Newest Android L Port For Nexus 4 Is Now Fully Operational And Ready For Download

INFO
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] theloneseeker:
I strongly doubt that our device could get an Android L update.

The default runtime of android l is ART runtime.Our device does'nt hold that much of system memory for apps.

The only chance is to make a switchable runtime like in Kitkat (Dalvik/Art) or creating a new partition .

Anyway these are all guess and lets see what magic our Great devs can bring to our small beloved device.:good::fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Redwraith96:
A swap partition for art can't help?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] sir mordred:
Problem is not a system partition because system partition size(550mb) should be enough because at the moment with latest cm11+gapps i have a 150 mb free space on my system partition so i think our phone can/will handle next android release but we cant know at the moment so im not sure

But main problem is small cache partition

İt is just 60 mb :(

For that reason we are using some dirty workarounds(in my opinion) like this https://github.com/arco/android_device_samsung_ancora/commit/3455d7837c951e297335295a36cd2202a9f629f3 with that workaround apps is using /data partition instead of /cache partition for dalvik-caching operations

Why im saying this is dirty workaround? Because i think each operation should use its own partition

Repartition is a real fix for that kind of problems but this way is a very dangerous and have brick risk :(

İm planning to make some experiments like this:

-With fdisk im planning to split out my internat sdcard(1.7 GB ,mmcblk0p28) to 2 new partitions(first partition will be mmcblk0p28 and have 1.3 GB size and second partition will be mmcblk0p29 and have 400 MB size)

Then we will use mmcblk0p29 as cache partition

-For that firstly we need to format the partition as ext4(because internal sd is vfat but cache partition must be ext4 fs type formatted)

-After converting from vfat to ext4 of new mmcblk0p29 partition, we will change cache partition from mmcblk0p16 to 29 through fstab.qcom

-and last thing we need to do is removing/disabling previous workaround so we will change the following build.prop line dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=1 to dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=0

This is the cleanest way i think because we arent touching to main partitions(system,data and cache)

We just need to split it internal sd(1.7 GB)

Stuck in a boot loop with my HTC one m7 (sprint - US) where I can use recovery just fine, I can flash both CWM and TWRP and sideload any ROM, but none work. AOKP and Cyanogenmod each crash seconds after booting to the lock screen and MIUI stays on but throws up persistent errors about the UI stopped responding (not giving me access to do anything). All I would like to do is get any stable ROM to run so that I can use an RUU file to restore everything. On another note, the phone says "unlocked" in the BIOS like screen at the beginning, but CWM and TWRP keep offering to root my phone, which never works. It was rooted before... Somehow my CWM back ups got deleted, no clue how. It seems like the same problem is affecting each rom, becuase I have used each before without a problem. any suggestions are much appreciated! Thank-you!

Hi Guys,

After trying to fix my i9300 that was having radom freezes with Fstrim and the Dummy File Generator my phone died.

It doesn't boot past the sgs3 logo, but i am still able to boot recovery. I recovery i can see that /data cannot be mounted. Does that mean that my internal memory is now completely broken?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tallman43:
I think he means he formatted is data partition with Twrp recovery (you can do this with any recovery)....Basicly a factory reset which wipes your data partition (so if you don't want to lose anything back it up).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theBIGone:
That is indeed what I meant. The weird thing was that I was not able to do a factory reset and was not able to mount the data partition. Only going into your recovery and selecting format -> data partition worked. I can add that the phone is also not experiencing any of the freezes I experienced prior to this incident.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastorbob62:
My wife's 7" Kindle Fire HD keeps rebooting into the TWRP recovery. I had rooted it and installed a custom ROM several months ago, but could never get it stable and working correctly. So I gave up and restored the original images backup and all was well for several months. She used it quite regularly without issues.

Then a couple of weeks ago, she would charge it up 100%, use it to read then go to bed. By the next evening it would be as dead as a door nail. So thinking it was a bad battery I did some investigating and found that when she puts it into standby mode it will eventually reboot and go into TWRP. Of course it never enters sleep mode while on the recovery screen and the battery will eventually run down.

A couple of notes - If I reboot it to the system from TWRP but never unlock the screen it never reboots to recovery. Only when I unlock the screen and enter the Home screen, or open ANY program will it eventually reboot to TWRP.

I am suspecting that some program updated itself and that is causing the problem, but since she has numerous programs and I had auto update installed it is impossible to know which one is the culprit.

It is running software version 7.4.8_user_4849020, TWRP 2.6.3.1

Has anybody seen this issue? Any suggestions?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
Amazon'n software doesn't want to play nice with the 2nd bootloader and recovery. I suggest you to flash a custom rom like CM. The unofficial builds and monthly snapshots are pretty stable.

Oh,and you need to upgrade TWRP to 2.7.0.0 to install CM 11.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastorbob62:
Not going to happen. I went down that obstacle course several months ago and had nothing but problems with CM. Never could get the tablet stable and working in spite of following all of the suggestions and tweaks.. That is why I went back to stock. It worked without issues for several months so as far as I'm concerned it is a problem that can be fixed. It is just going to take me a while to solve it. In the meantime, it seems that as long as she is in the Kindle Reader software and actively using it the reboot doesn't happen. If it gets to where it is not usable I'll just bite the bullet and buy her a new tablet.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ph0enix_216:
So far no one has found a way around Amazon's bootloader checks, so there's no way to solve it. And CM has become much much more stable now (we're considered official now :D ). So CM may be worth another go :)

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastorbob62:
Hmmmm. Well, I may give this a shot after I replace her Kindle for her. I have about $100.00 in my Amazon account that I can apply to the price of a new tablet (not another Kindle, she wants a REAL Android device ;)). Then I can experiment as much as I desire and if things go badly, she will still have a tablet.

Cm11 has changed ALOT in the past 9 months. It's very stable, and has the latest android version 4.4.4. Also think about upgrading your Twrp version to 2.7.0. :)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pastorbob62:
Upgrading to TWRP 2.7.0 is understood. I had to do that in order to run a Kit-Kat based ROM on my Asus TF300. (Which, by the way, is MUCH easier to customize than this Kindle.)

The main problem I previously had with CM was getting the Kindle app to work without crashing and causing a reboot. or locking the tablet up. Has that issue been resolved?

flash twrp 2.7.0.0 using fire flash app DO NOT FLASH TWRP IN OLD TWRP. So that you have the latest twrp version. Make sure you do a full back up then clear davalik, cache (factory reset) in twrp. THEN flash cm 11 with gapps.
