[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
If you're rooted you could try the methods in the FAQ post. Otherwise, buy/build a fastboot cable. It makes everything much easier.

Q17: How can I access fastboot mode on 2nd generation Kindle Fires?

There are 3 methods currently used for accessing fastboot mode on the 2nd generation Kindle Fires. Depending on the model, one or more of these methods may not work.

For all devices, entering “reboot bootloader” in the shell as the root user should reboot the device into fastboot mode.

On HD models, entering a fastboot command that waits for a handshake from the device (i.e. <waiting for device>”) such as “fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar product” and rebooting the device will usually enable fastboot mode when the device reboots.

On the KFHD7 and KF2, a factory cable can be used to access fastboot mode by plugging it into the device after it has been powered down.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cecr:
Thanks Red. The shell command works, but issuing a command that waits for a handshake then rebooting doesn't. I also tried the same command whilst the device was powered down, but in both cases it just booted normally.

Of course my factory cable also works, and I am rooted
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SafinWasi:
adb shell su -c reboot-bootloader
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cecr:
thanks safinwasi. I managed ok without needing this option, It was more for reassurance. For the benefit of anyone who might need to do this, I have seen that command without quotes, so try both.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bao289:
I think you should get a fastboot cable less hassle! :)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cecr:
Hmmm, I think you should read posts properly before making comments.

I've had my factory cable since I rooted my first Kindle about 15 months ago.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zakkz:
I've just started using my MDA Vario II at work. My problem(s) are as follows:

1) I wanted to use a remote program to access all the functions/screen of my vario from the PC - does anyone know any decent, cheap (or preferably free!) remote programs?

2) I wanted to connect it to the PC and still use my unlimited Web & Walk from T Mobile, rather than the work internet connection - but every time I connect it asks me to input details of my work proxy server. Is there any way I can stop it from doing this? Even if I don't input the details, it still doesn't connect via GPRS.

Any help would be much appreciated! I apologise if I'm asking stupid questions - I'm just fresh from the lands of SE P910i's
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] CodeSmoke:
1) I haven't seen anything free that was realy worth it. I went ahead and bought the best one I've seen and that's SOTI PocketController. It's $35 but since I write apps for the PocketPC it was worth it. With SOTI you can take screen captures, record video of your screen, download the latest skins so it looks like your phone, get access to a command promt, task viewer and stuff like that. Your suppose to be able to connect to it over the internet as well, but I haven't got this part to work yet.

2) You can use a Bluetooth DUN (DialUpNetwork) connection from your laptop to your phone so that your laptop will use your phone as a modem if there is now WiFi connection around. I use this and it is very handy. T-Mobile's web site has the information you need for this, if you can't find it let me know and I will send you the PDF I have for it.

I use "remote display control for Pocket PC", it's free (as in beer):

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zakkz:
pof - amazing! that was exactly what I was after - thank you so so much!

as for the internet connection - I might not have explained myself properly. Basically I wanted to have my vario connected to my pc by usb, but then use the web & walk from my phone rather than the work internet connection. At the moment, whenever I connect to my work pc, and try to go onto the internet, it asks me to enter the proxy settings for my work network. I basically wanted to disable this and just use my web and walk connection. is this possible?

Thanks for your replies Codesmoke and Pof. I hope i'll be able to return te favour one day when I get to grips with this device!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] gmatharu12:
Yeaaa i've also been trying to do the internet connection thing through your PC, basically leave the phone charging with USB, but active the bluetooth connection and use your phone as a modem, i never got any further than that, mainly cause the non-microsoft bluetooth stack on my computer was giving me trouble dialing up.

Put "*99#" with no speechmarks as the dial up phone number, this will dial into web and walk. Leave the username/password blank.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Halfpenny:
You could always plug your device into your laptop / computer and then Ctrl-Alt-Del and kill the process "wcescomm.exe" which will then just leave the phone charging ?

Hello everyone i have a problem with the last update of Xperia z

Wifi always on even when i turn it off it still consume power like this picture

The wifi if from 3 hours but in power management it seems on and eat the battery any ideas??
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] St.Jimmy90:

To your question: Do a factory reset and see if the problem remains
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadzxc:
sorry for the mistake

i tried a fresh install and a three roms and it still the same
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Felimenta97:
Go to Settings, Wifi, Advanced and deactivate the Scanning Always Available option
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onmehedson:
Also try ...Settings..Power management and turn on Location-based WiFi ..

Good Luck !!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmadzxc:
thank you very much that solved the problem
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
Uhm, I do think that it has been proven that, that actually uses more of your battery.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernando823:
Same problem here, but I didnt realize before! Thanks for the solution.

Worst update from Sony ever??
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arifkpi:
Same problem here, Thanks for the solution :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Felimenta97:
This is a KitKat thing, not something by Sony. It helps a lot with Google Now, but with the tradeback of worse battery life.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onmehedson:
Ah...O.K ... I had better turn it off then and maybe my battery will last the whole week...:D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bloodsuckingcomputer:
Now, that is some crazy ass battery life, but, I wonder how long does the screen been turned on? Then I'll get a clearer understanding of it ,if you don't mind .
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kocane:
Must be something like 10-20 minutes, lol.

Regarding "always scanning", I dont think it's something that uses alot of battery. Probably even more battery friendly than other "location" services. Just because it labels WiFi as always on, doesnt mean it uses as much battery as actually being connected to a network. Personally, I don't care for all this location nonsense so it's obviously off. Regarding the location-based wifi, it's only smart if you don't know how to toggle WiFi when leaving your house, etc.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Onmehedson:
No probs Bloodsucker !... Screen on 13% of 34 hours = 4.5 hours..This is my everyday day phone.I would consider myself to be a light-medium user , I dont play games used for voice calls ( 5-10 calls), text messages, used as a time piece (checked every 1/2 hour or so), 2 weather apps constantly updating as I move around a lot, GPS always on , bluetooth always on, maybe 1-3 youtube vids a day..screen turns of after 1 mins inactivity...

Running existenz 1.5.5 dark edition on a locked bootloader.. using Next launcher 3D and a live wallpaper...

hope that helps ..:)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kocane:
The phone maxes around 5-6, MAYBE 7 (I've never come near that though), hours of screen on time in total.

The 13% means that 13% of the battery used going from 100% to 72% was from the screen.

Tap "screen" in the list of battery usage and it will tell you how long it has been on.

This one's mine... ca. 70% brightness:

[Nexus 5 General] daledenton:
Ok, this is getting crazy over here. Why on earth can we not have a SINGLE THREAD about Android L? It is the biggest release for Android and some people are excited. Everybody was confined to one thread prior to this, and guess what? That thread was closed. Why? Because people were apparently "spamming questions" (I didn't read through the entire thread so I don't know exactly what was going down, but the last couple pages didn't see all that bad).

Every other thread now is getting shut down. Seriously, what does it matter if people are asking too much? They are excited! Closing all of these threads are just going to make new people (those who weren't here last night or today) keep posting more topics on the matter. So what if people are being annoying. That main thread that was closed still had some genuine people in it. Who cares if there are a few people throughout the thread asking too much? Let them be! At least it is in one thread and not making a mess of this and the Q&A forum, likes its been since the main thread was closed.

Let this topic stay please, and let anybody speculate, ask questions, build hype or whatever towards Dev preview!

May I just remind everybody who would say something along the lines of "Oh XDA is a developer forum not blah blah blah", which is what I have seen numerous times in these topics that have been closed:

Quoted Directly above the threads here in General!

"Since this is not a development section, you can post on general topics that all users will encounter with the Nexus 5. Any registered XDA user can post in this forum."

I believe all users will encounter Android L, so why can't there be speculation, posts about things that were discovered, new pictures ect.? Look I know it gets annoying, but that's when it is all over the forum. Can we just keep this one topic open and confine everybody to it? It will make those who want to talk about it happy for they have a place and it will make those annoyed happy for it is only one thread.
[Nexus 5 General] Tijmen:
Noble cause, but it won't work. It will derail in a matter of seconds and none of us mods feel like taking on the burden of keeping it in check simply for speculation purposes. Wait for the test version to drop, until then nothing is allowed.

Samsung definitely can not make anything normal (any update..) that can work w/o problems and more exactly On time...so calm down its just normal again...

for root use only cfauto and dont flash any custom recovery after this if u dont wanna have headaches with extsdcard (blame KK and google for this, not samsung) although both are in competition to be the worst developer company...so just try and post your experiences here...and accept all these headaches normal (if u can) or know that all are caused because of incimpetance of many many inexperienced (roughly: dumb asses of the nowadays tech industry, that can only exaggerate stock values, w/o being able to do anything usefull in real).
