[Sony Xperia ZR] SirVer:
As far as I understand, the Xperia ZR does not support this. Period. Something to do with the fact that it's internal storage is actually an external that's built into the phone and emulated to act as the internal. It might even be a limitation of KitKat, but I don't think that's likely. Your best bet is Link2SD (preferrably pro) for regular apps and games, and FolderMount for apps with obb files like Injustice, Gameloft games, etc. Link2SD can be somewhat confusing though, though it's a little easier if you have some basic experience with Linux or partitioning hard disks. I understand that there are some apps that do what Link2SD does, but automates everything and keeps it simple (I think simple2ext might be an example of this, not sure though). Native app2sd and AppsMgrIII and the like are out of the question, though.
[Sony Xperia ZR] anthonythangaraj:
Check the following tutorial. I am using Folder mount to move obb files to Sd card. Working fine in all stock firmware.

[Sony Xperia ZR] xConjo:
It does support it, at least for me. Maybe because I have installed the "KitKat SD Card Full Access" module on Xposed? that and foldermount makes a great combo.
[Sony Xperia ZR] SirVer:
Really? Damn. Partitioned my SD card for nothing. I'm not really sure what Xposed is; I guess I'm going to go find a tutorial for it now. Thanks for the heads up.

P.S. Why would you need foldermount if you have native apps2sd? Doesn't the native move obb files?
[Sony Xperia ZR] xConjo:
Xposed Framework Is really useful and can be a really great complement in some roms (like the Stock one); It let you change the behavior of the system and apps without touching any APKs; so for example, I use it to force Inmersive Mode on apps that doesn't have this feature (I use it for games mostly, so I play at full screen :p) and also I have the module named Kitkat SD Card full acces, that itself doesn't let me move apps to the SD, but if I understand correctly, this one let non-system apps gain acces to the SD Card (sdcard1).

I still can't move apps to the SD with that (from settings, also tried App2SD and link2sd and said that there was a problem because storage is being emulated) That's why I need to use FoulderMount and it's simple. select the source folder to mount (from Emulated/0 or sdcard0) and then thee destination folder (sdcard1/[whateverthenameofthefolderis]/) and that's it. there are tutorials (better explained) on how to use it too.
[Sony Xperia ZR] soma cruz:
Thanks!it worked but I can only move game's obb file not the apps data.however I'm happy to move big game's file files
[Sony Xperia ZR] soma cruz:
Link2sd need second partition of the sd card and I don't know how to do it.I tried so many times but it didn't work.
[Sony Xperia ZR] SirVer:
If you're happy using Foldermount, then I suggest you don't bother with Link2SD. Partitioning an SD card is annoying and often messy. Also, it's not very flexible. You can't use any free space in the second partition for storage, which is just wasteful. Don't get me wrong, it's a brilliant app, and a very clever workaround for the problem, but it's not a perfect solution.

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

Oh, I see. So there's no way to get the native, Android inbuilt app2sd? Bummer.

The Xposed framework looks very interesting, to say the least. After taking a look, I've decided to go back to stock and just use this for my tweaks and such. How long I'll keep it like that, I don't know, but I'm definitely going to try it. Thanks for explaining it to me. :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SBM_from_LA:
I ran into a problem when I tried to root my phone. I had experience rooting before with a Samsung tablet so I was surprised with this problem.

Phone Info:

AT&T Galaxy Note 2 SGH-I317 OTA updated to Android 4.4 before attempting the root

Things didn't go as planned and got hung up during rooting process... Now the phone is stuck with the message about Firmware update

interrupted. I'm not entirely sure how to proceed next and I was hoping to receive some advice from other users who are more experienced

in this area.

I remember reading somewhere that once a device has KitKat 4.4 installed.. you can't use a previous version to restore or something like that.

I hope to have someone respond back to me soon... and please, if you could, give me detailed/step-by-step instructions or advice so I can understand what you mean.. since I'm not an expert in this particular area.

Remember, before the soft-bricking, my phone was running Android 4.4 that was recently installed by AT&T.... so I need a method what works with that.

Yes, I am still able to get into Download Mode...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] terpin32:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SBM_from_LA:
Thanks for the quick reply

Thanks for the recommendation... However, I did come across that posting but it didn't seem to apply to my particular problem.. I'm not running 4.3, but Android 4.4 on my phone... One thing I'm not sure about is... I tried flashing the original 4.1.2 to my phone (followed instructions from another site on resolving soft bricks) and that process failed... I'm not sure if I need to completely start all over with my phone or if 4.4 is still installed...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] terpin32:
You cant flash 4.1.2 you have to go to 4.1.1 first then go to 4.1.2 idk y just how it is

That link is just a way to get the phone back working mine did that after doing an update and the only thing i could do is download mode and i did that and it got me back up and running
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] SBM_from_LA:

I just wanted to thank you for the information you supplied to me.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osbertc0ol:
Its because the mic are covered with water.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardoho84:
so is it happening to your device too after you put it in water? any way to dry out the microphone instead of waiting for hrs?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nealkoy:
This problem was encountered on the z1 but should have been addressed with the z2.... Sony!!!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidsonreis:
Hi, the problem is not because the wather... I was with the same and it solved by "Settings > Call Settings" and UNCHECK the option "MICROPHONE NOISE SUPPRESSION".

Have fun! :laugh:

[EDIT]

sorry, I make a test putting my Z2 in the water and comprove that's this problem is really exactly like osbertc0ol says... The mic stay covered with water and makes the call sucks!

the most viable solution I see would blow the microphone after watering it.

#sony #fail
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ardoho84:
Does the blowing to the microphone work?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Luinwethion:
Sorry to reply like that, but RTFM!

"If the speaker or microphone get wet, their function may be impacted until the water

has completely dried. Please note that the drying time can be up to three hours

depending on the environment."

It happens to all waterproof phone / gadgets, microphone and speakers are protected with a waterproof membrane, that gets blocked when it's wet.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davidsonreis:
Yes, it helps to dry faster microphone.

Like Luinwethion says... this happens with all Waterproof phone.

So the way is to avoid getting unnecessarily watering! ;)
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strommy1966:
the Mic in the Z2 has a problem full stop . mine has never been wet.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smartphoner:
Yeah that's normal. Either blow, or tap the bottom of the phone on a dry towel several times or just suck on mic pores with your mouth and this solves it.

You can find a list of compatible phones here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] RumoredNow:
Long story:

Most of those linked by nikwen are deprecated and abandoned.

Currently Ubuntu for Devices supports Nexus 4, Nexus 7 2013 WiFi only and Nexus 10. Anything else is subpar on a testing level platform that most won't use as a daily driver. You could build an image yourself if there is a CyanogenMod 10.x for your device and you understand how to build an OS Image. By using github to pull from Ubuntu feeds, CyanogenMod feeds, libhybris, etc.; and you have a dedicated build environment that you can turn over to cranking out some nightlies for yourself...

Short story: No.

Hi all,

So I'm new to the M8, and today I rooted and unlocked the bootloader. I wanted to change the HTC emoji to the default Kitkat ones, which requires just deleting or renaming a file in the fonts folder, located in /system.

I can make the change, but when I reboot, it reverts the changes and restores the previous file that I removed.

How do I get the changes to stick?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dkerlee:
Hey folks, I was messing with my phone today and inadvertently covered up the left speaker on the bottom which reduced the volume by 90%. I covered the bottom right speaker, no appreciable change.

It looks like the right speaker is full of lint! Any pointers on how to get that out of there? Maybe I should pull the case open rather than jamming needles in there?

Then I was reading this article

http://www.forbes.com/sites/gordonkelly/2014/01/29/nexus-5-review-the-long-term-owners-test/

And it said the Nexus 5 has a mono speaker. Waaaaaiit a second. There are clearly two speaker grills in the bottom. Doesn't that mean stereo sound? I thought I had a lint problem, and now perhaps they're just fake holes?

As there is no section for your device....best place to ask your question would be here.... >*Android Development and Hacking*>*Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Also, if you have a custom recovery, try wiping cache and dalvik cache.....and if still no luck, try a factory reset.

Good luck!

You will lose all your apps and data doing a factory reset.....but I see no other option if you can't get into phone to back them up.

If you don't want to try that just yet, ask in the section I linked and maybe someone will have other ideas.

This review is for a Sony Xperia Z Ultra, but UtorCase is tailor made for over a thousand other smartphones at https://www.shapeways.com/shops/utor-case where you can search for your phone name. If you cannot find your phone just shoot an email to the UtorCase designer, that is how I finally got one made for my extra large Phone. :laugh:

Disclaimer:

I have been nagging the designer for a Xperia Z Ultra version for a long time and finally he did it. I bought it on my own money first but after chatting with him as he wanted me to let him know how I liked it, I commented that I was going to post a review of it and he offered to refund my money for me taking the time to post a review. So, I like to make this clear because even though I am a LONG time member here and never have tried to do shady businesses, well..someone is always going to be a smart ass about it. ;)

So with that said...Greetings!

So, as I have a BIG phone, the Xperia X Ultra, I have been looking for a way to play my games with a PS3 controller (specially emulators). Unfortunately the ones like MOGA that I was using before cannot hold my Phone plus I much prefer the PS3 controller.

So finally I found this UtorCase design which is simple and effective. As you can see by the pics, you just wrap this around your controller and it locks in perfectly.

If it can hold my phone when lying on bed to play games then it can hold any phone!

Please notice in the close of up pictures that my phone wont fit perfectly because I have a glass protector which adds .4 thickness and YET, as you can see on one of the pictures, it is so good at keeping it in place that even when not fully fitting, I can play with it lying on bed without it falling off. :good:

The material is also very light and gives the impression of not being tough yet it is.

Of course with anything designed for one single device there is always the situation of when you upgrade the phone you must buy another but to me, I dont upgrade right away since usually you need to wait a generation after yours to get real improvements and for all the enjoyment I will get from it, it is well worth the money.

Thanks for reading! :good:

Honestly I think this product is over priced, as a brand new Linx 7 only costs £39.99 in UK and this piece of plastic will cost £23 includes shipping, bearing mind, it is only a pure piece of plastic regardless how awesome this idea it is. I'm not going to buy one but good luck if you have already god it.
[General Accessories] shaolin95:
mmmm considering you are replying to this TWO YEARS later, things have probably changed on the market. ;)

Plus I dont see how first one item relates to the other because I dont see that tablet you are mentioning holding my controller. At the time there were pretty much no alternatives for this phone and a controller so you know...supply and demand.

Also, I dont see how shipping charges are at the sellers fault. You live in UK and I doubt international buyers were his primary target.

In any case, not sure why you say "good luck if you already got it"...I mean I provided photos of it holding my phone and did a review of it which I thought you have read before posting but looks like you didnt read much...

I tried to solve it with a new flash, but still the problem remains.

Anyone familiar with this problem?

Before I flashed it with the molski rom, it had a T-mobile ROM installed with the same IPL/SPL.
