[Huawei Ascend P7] wshamroukh:
Hi Chaps,

I have recently bought Huawei Ascend P7 device... It is such a nice device... I love it so much..

However I have an issue with Facebook videos. When playing any video on Facebook, ideally the video should expand to the whole screen and the navigation bar should fade away. However this does not happen here. What happens is that when I play the video, the video appears as if it is floating in the middle of the screen and I still can see the facebook feeds in the background while the navigation bar is still there. See the attachment.. shows the issue.

In youtube videos I don't have this issue at all. The video will expand to the whole screen and the navigation bar disappear

I am not sure if this is a bug in the device itself or in Facebook!! Or am I missing some setting here?

Appreciate any help here.

Thanks,

Waddah

Back-up your device and do a factory reset from the menu.

Got no problems anymore. :D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billamin:
Hi all, I have never experienced this kind of wierd issue with any of my past phones. When i would play games or say watch a movie on phone,( my last one was Htc One X), i would usually connect it to a charger so that the battery keeps charging slowly, and it worked with each of my past and even my gf's galaxy s4. But with XZ, the battery keeps continuously discharging. Anyone got any fix for this? With the kind of weak battery XZ has, it is a highly needed basic feature. I even tried with a 2A S4 charger, but to no effect. I even tried the modding of usb cable by shorting the data wires (the green and the white wire cut and insulated), still no improvement.

I have been using existenz v1.5.5 kk, and i can see that there is an option of fast charge in performance control. But turning it on doesnt make any change. Does the kernel not support fast-charge?Can anyone share any insights? It feels stupid to have to lay the phone down letting it to charge by itself olny to get all discharged within 3 hours. :confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darren_J:
Charging is really a problem for XZ. Anyways, shorting the data wires won't help, try switch to a stronger cable that's capable of transferring larger amount of electricity when you're using the 2A charger (many of those cables aren't able to transfer enough amount of electricity).

Also, when your phone is really fully loaded and became very hot, just as when you use it for navigation in your car under the sun, the charging speed will decrease (I don't even know why). The charging speed decreases either when you're touching the screen or when it's hot.

Anyways, try better cables first and see if it helps. The docking system is also likely to charge faster.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billamin:
I used a whole bunch of cables. The HTC one actually works as an anti-charge cable lol, it eats up battery even when the phone is left on charge unused. I had high hopes with the S4 cable, which turned out to perform same as the stock Sony one. Guess I have to live like this..
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darren_J:
Sorry to hear that the cables you tried all failed. Did you try using the docking system? They should perform better though.

I mentioned switching cables because I had a "anti-charge" cable before, lol. I did some research afterwards and finally got some 22AWG cables and they really made a difference. It's said that they're capable of transferring 3A electricity and it's really different from all other cables I've used. They're just about $2 each because they're handmade, I can give you one if you wanna have a try.

Also, charging by AC power should be better than using the power of cars' lighter. I'm using my docking system with the SONY stock charger w/ ac power. Never disappointed me.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billamin:
Dude you might not be able to give me even if you wanted to.. I am in india and the shipment cost will be excessive. Thanks a lot btw.

I flashed Carbon KK rom and the charging is comparatively better. Atleast it doesnt drain while i use the phone for browsing etc, connected to a wall charger. But if I play games or watch videos on speaker, it does to some extent. I bought one more charger, a Nokia made 750 maH charger (AC 20N) which again is wierdly same in performance compared to both the 1.5A Sony and 2A Samsung. What I think is as you said, the wire makes all the difference. A 2A non detachable is the need of the moment for XZ it seems..:D

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue9933:
From my experience usually Google Play Services is the culprit for hot phones and battery drain. What I did when on stock 4.4.2 was i uninstalled updates for the services and my battery life improved by a lot. Although it does come with the downside that some apps like youtube won't work with the older version (easy work-around by using chrome to go to youtube instead =P)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoolRaoul:
Since I own that phone, I've been facing the same problem of slow charging speed (actually discharging when using some applications)

The more problematic case in when I'm using the phone in car when driving even if I'm using a powerful car charger (Anker).

In the past I also have tested number of diffferent charger and cables (including original Sony car charger) without seeing *any* improvement.

Recently I've decided to took time to make a comparison test with a colleague Nexus 5. We have connected it in my car to the same charger and used in the exact same configuration (Waze navigation app running) for a one hour drive on the same work->home daily path where I use usually my Xperia.

The measured results have shown for the Nexus a 30%/hour increase of battery level opposed to the Xperia 10%/hour decrease I'm facing every other day.

Later, using "Android tuner" application battery monitoring tools, I've been able to measure that, even when using a 2.2 Amp capable charger, the Xperia isn't able to "suck" more that 700/800mAmp input current most of the time.

To go further I've asked in the french forum where I've posted those figures if any people had been successful to have the Xperia battery level increasing in the same configuration. I have got only answers of other people acknowledging having the same problem as myself.

Then I've also asked people in the "accessories" section of a car owners (Toyota) vehicle forum: found people having the same issue are also owning Sony models.

Also asked another colleague who who owns a Xperia model Z1: ditto.

I definitively start to think that there is a defect is a in the battery charging regulation system of the whole Xperia range.

BTW: I will be very interested if anyone using an Xperia Z in car with navigation application running without those issues could post details about his charger brand and model, and how much battery percent/hour increase he his actually getting with that setup.

Sorry for the long message and thanks for your attention :o

Where is installed recovery becouse i think its like as bios on pc, but on pc is bios on separated chip and system on disk, is recovery on same place as android system, I think on Phone internal SD ? Because I have another question, when I open file manager on CM and open tho root "/" I have lot of folders there, some i can format / wipe from CWM, but some are still there and I dont know if I can delete him or I cant, and if I can then how?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alexandre-P:
Hi!

Well, yes, you can do that. You can root your stock ROM and use it as it is. You can even install Xposed Framework and install some modules to even personalize more your stock ROM.

But other ROMs, stock-based or AOSP-based, offer different experiences. That's the fun of Android.

Hi, i am new to this forum and i have a problem with my galaxy s3 that i can´t solve. So I tried rooting my phone with Odin3 v3.07 yesterday and everything went just fine until it restarted. After i turn it on it immediately goes to a downloading screen that looks exactly like the one in download mode but without the text in the upper left corner. It is a standing android and the text under it says: Downloading... Do not turn of target !!

I have tried to take out sim and battery and to reboot and do a factory reset but nothing works! :/ Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

I am absolutely no expert on rooting, this is my first time doing it so i am kind of a n00b ;)

ps. I can still enter download and recovery mode!

Please help me

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] san_099:
Hello Everyone,

I have been using a few custom ROMs, one thing i found in common is the loss of resolution quality in terms on crisp details of some widgets and more obvious the icons.

I have tried to bring up the issue in the respective thread but I didn't get a definitive solution.

My question, is there any way to fix this issue? are the system ui optimized for the Mega 6.3? Can we tweak it to give us better results?

Changing the DPI does not seem to solve the problem.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePerveeSage:
I want my phone to scan for some predefined SSIDs before scanning for other SSIDs. To do this I can write some network values in wpa_supplicant.conf and give the priority field the highest number. However, I want to be assured that my device always scans for those specific SSIDs first. So, I want to know what is the highest priority that I can give to the network SSIDs. If there are any other methods by which I can ensure that my device checks for the presence of some specific SSIDs, I would really like to know them.

Curious what everyone thinks about the new LG G3 and whether or not you'd trade your M8 in for it if you were within the 14 Day Return Window.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] richii0207:
Sense is too awesome to pass on.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BadUsername:
G3 is cool, but it won't have the same feel, definitely not as smooth as the m8.

Pros:

Better screen

Less bezel

Lighter

Better rear camera

Cons:

Worse battery life

Phone gets too hot faster

Stupid rear buttons

Worse front facing camera

Not as fast as sense

That's at least what I've been reading, I wouldn't switch. And who knows if it'll have an unlocked bootloader.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jdavis2037:
I agree!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] spotmark:
If the G3 were to get rooted and bootloader unlocked, I might consider it. Otherwise, no chance.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] TheBiles:
That "better" screen on the G3 is actually the cause of most of the cons you listed. It kills the battery and causes the phone to lag from the extra work it has to do to render it. The general consensus seems to be that the screen is actually the biggest fault in the phone, and a good 1080p screen could have made it perfect.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Breezer23:
Yeah. Not sure what the need is for such a high res screen on a cell phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] richii0207:
I said the same about the 1080 screen, here I am now :p. The G3 screen is absolutely gorgeous.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BadUsername:
That was something I was aware of, power hungry screen = hot phone, less battery. Definitely not needed, but the resolution is a huge selling point for them. They wouldn't be able to get as many sales with the same quality screen as the S5 or M8. Samsung would wipe them clear off the map.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Tigerstown:
That's pretty bad if you get wiped off the map by samsung. Haha. Only thing good at Samsung r there TV's. ?

Sorry to go off topic. But I seen that Sony has unlockable bootloaders rt thru there own site...I wonder if VZW has enough pull with Sony like HTC to force sony to not allow VZW Sony devices to be unlocked ...as I seen that new Sony pad coming to VZW an I must say Sony ui is very nice an real fast an smooth. Does anyone know?

Also because you can Now as of yesterday use the edge to get pads from VZW..
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
You do realize Samsung Android devices account for the majority of all Android devices? Which is unfortunate, because they suck, but saying "You suck if you got beat by Samsung" is pretty inane.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Mike02z:
A buddy just got the T-Mobile LG3 and we ran some benchmarks. Granted, this phone is 100% stock and I'm running GPE (not OC'd) on the M8 but he scored 22100 in Quad and I scored 24500. He scored 32000 in Antu and I scored 34000.

The LG3 is just a little too big for my taste. I have never owned an LG phone but my M7 was my first HTC. Was all Samsung before that. I'm sticking with my M8 until the M9 comes out and has S-Off.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Tigerstown:
Walk into a bs phone company pre paid. The shelves r full of low end Samsung devices that r a joke for only 50bucks or less. Makes sense they have majority off andriod devices.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] sfreemanoh:
A lot of the phones you can buy from the pre-paid carriers are cheap...what's your point? Not everyone can shell out $300 for a brand new phone. My cousin just bought a S3 because that's all he could afford (free being what he could afford).

My point is if u flood the market with tons of devices for free of course your going to have the most out there active in the market..as most people can't afford a high end phone an the government isn't buying them one of those.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] richii0207:
I'm pretty sure he was talking about how people bash Samsung for making "cheap low cost" phones when there's a market for them as not everyone has the resources to shell out hundreds of dollars on a phone.

I applaud Samsung for reaching out to all types of consumers.

With my M8 GPE, callers have been experiencing poor call quality.

Without speakerphone they say it's OK, but quiet.

On speakerphone (even holding it right up to my face), callers say it's totally garbled and they can't hear a word I say.

All of the reviews I've seen have praised this phone on call quality, but it's always been poor for me.

I doubt it's the network, because the same people have said my OnePlus One sounded excellent while in the same spot and on the same network with the same APN settings as the M8.

[Asus Transformer TF701] Shadow of Chaos:
So I'm looking at getting some kind of keyboard/tablet combo like the Transformer series in order to steam from my desktop computer anywhere; I've settled on using Splashtop for the actual streaming, so now I need to wonder which Tablet is the better choice.

My question is more in using the trackpad- In other words, does the trackpad work mostly as a "standard" trackpad would (THat is, right and left clicking)? The only videos I can find demoing the idea use a USB mouse, so I'm not finding any luck there.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
I don't use Spashtop, so I can't help you there.

But the trackpad does not work lik on a Windows laptop. You do not have a right click context menu in Android. In some apps the right click functions as "back", in others it does nothing.

I never use it anyway. Feels extremely awkward if you have a perfect touch screen right in front of you.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
The trackpad kind of works like windows - well windows 8 anyway. It works as if it is a touchscreen.

As for splashtop last time I used it it worked fine and I could use the device as netbook. Gaming will only be as good as your streaming connection so I found it ok for strategy type games but not for FPS as it introduces lag.
[Asus Transformer TF701] mashed_ash:
The only functionality you wont get from the trackpad on splashtop is two finger scrolling. This works with standard android apps but doesnt work with any RDP client i've tried.
[Asus Transformer TF701] Shadow of Chaos:
That's fine with me, as I'm not much for FPSs anyway (and gaming was going to be at my main rig anyway).

One last question, though I think I found the answer to this before: Does the trackpad have right and left clicks, or is it where you have to hold the one button in order to right click?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Sleeepy2:
Depends on the app. There is a right click however it is up to the developer if and how they use it. Most apps just use the right click as a back button.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
In splash top it will work as a right click I believe so it will behave well for windows apps. In normal apps as said it is up to the app to configure mouse buttons - most android apps don't understand a right click - we have screen tap and screen tap and hold, etc....
[Asus Transformer TF701] Devolution1x:
Splashtop works just fine with it. I managed to actually play Mass Effect 3 from my gaming laptop in splashtop. It's just a pain to set up, that's all.
[Asus Transformer TF701] alesi80:
I do have the tf201 and I use splashtop 2 free version everyday with my windows 7 pc.

It works pretty good, the right click button of the trackpad dock acts as a windows right button.

only sad thing is that you have no ESC and no CANC button on the tf201 dock.

I remeber that a couple of years ago, in previous version of splashtop, the button which is located in the top left corner on the tf201 dock used to act as an esc button, but since some update it is no more like that.
