[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
http://smartphonetechie.com/sony-keen-to-fix-image-algorithms-in-xperia-z3/

That is a rumor news, no official. But I do believe it because there is not much surprise on z3/z3c, I wonder without the software revolution what's left on the new phones?

I don't actually think Sony will release it for z1/z1c/z2 but since we are all still using the same camera module, that mean we can port it but only after when we received Android L updates and xposed released ART ver because Android L will remove dalvik mode and xposed currently no ART.

We should receive Android L at Q1 2015 if L no late and it will also take some time to do porting. So, at the end it is a long waiting time. Personally, I have a high chance to just stick with z1c on 2015 because I don't real want to spend too much again on Sony and z3c is quite big in my opinion. evleak said 4.5" but from the leaked picture the size more believable at around 4.55" - 4.6". I give the chance for Sony this year and if I want to upgrade I would like to try Iphone, Samsung or go back HTC next time.

SA(auto scene modes) will only work with 8M originally and that mod made it also works on 20MP but high burst mode should no longer working correctly and 20MP SA also got bad focus. It's just not good to use 20MP SA mod.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidInsanity:
Great explanation! Thank you. I am using the modded z2 camera but it freezes sometimes and loading times are slow. And it shows black screen 50% of time :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
Do you mean the v7 8M? It does got little freeze and slow loading but the problem should not be that big.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidInsanity:
No idea as the one I am using is implemented into a ROM (kitkatslim I think the ROM is called)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:

They are different mods from different devs. If you are on kitkatslim evo8.0/8.1, you can flash this patch to return to stock then flash the v7 8MP mode. Remember to clean all settings related with camera every time before you flash mod.

But I may forced back 4.4.2 my Sony SmartWatch2 doesn't seems working good with 4.4.4, some of my sw2 apps not yet updated to fully working under 4.4.4. I'll need to do some more testing to confirm it. And I think the 4k recording quality dropped very slightly in v7 because it used more of libs from z1c stock 4.4.4 and affected the 4k quality this is my guess. We will need to wait for z2 4.4.4 release to real fix all problem.

[T-Mobile LG G3] RMXO:
Since we have root and recovery now, I was wondering if anyone coming from a different OEM device used TBackup to restore their apps and did it successfully? I was able to restore a few apps but the rest had a blue question mark with a silver background circle icon. Wondering if this normal or my microsd card got corrupted and that's why I'm seeing what I'm seeing. Or, it's normal due to the backup is from a different OEM.

I'm thinking of taking another chance on the G3 again since my 1st one was returned due to getting a lemon.

EDIT: Looks like it was due to a bunch of corrupted files on my sdcard since I just got a new G3 and was able to see all my app backups in TBackup.
[T-Mobile LG G3] SystemErrorOne:
sweet glad it worked, also remember to NEVER restore system data from another device within TB. I used to do this back in my noob days and I wondered why my phone kept having FC's.. Just restore all apps with data
[T-Mobile LG G3] mickliq:
When I switch devices, I only restore missing user apps. It's generally safe to restore the user data with those apps but you need to be careful with a few -- for instance I find Facebook doesn't restore well, the notifications often don't work if you do that, just I just skip it and install it from the Play Store fresh. But for the 200 or so user apps, it saves so much time.

[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPBoss:
Hi guys,

I have a rooted gpad with stock 4.4.2 and custom twrp recovery with root.

I am looking for a stable rom that still has qpair functionality as i use it with my g2 when driving.

I also want a kernel that is overclockable and still frequently updated (some kernels are now discontinued).

I have searched a lot but still confused as to what to flash. Any help would be appreciated[emoji5]
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madasalizard:
Hi. Use this method so you can install Qpair on AOSP based ROMs (Not entirely sure if this actually works on the v500). - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2571429

If you go with a stock based ROM I would go with LRS G PAD.

Only AIC Kernel is slightly overclocked from 1.72 to 1.78Ghz.

If you are looking for speed and smoothness in my opinion I believe the best combination to be SlimKat and mani Kernel.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPBoss:
Thanks for the quick response bro. So if i use slimkat and mani will qpair work as well as stock or does it have any issues?
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madasalizard:

Easy Root your 4.4.2 KitKat ROM

HOWTO Root your 4.4.2 ROM:​

At first you have to know, whats behind all the followigng steps.

It is not that easy to root this device with KitKat (at least at the moment).

Now let's beginn:

1. Just download and install this file: Root_genious_General.apk

2. It will install a small tool, which can root your tablet. And it installs "Kinguser" . It will ask you, to update your ROOT(1.0.23) to ROOT (1.1.33). It will be in chinese, just chose the right button and allow to update this tool.

3. A circle will appear with "ROOT" in it. "Push" the button and magic will happen ;) (a progress bar) An yellow window will appear, in chinese, but you'll see, if it was a success ;) then you'll see Kinguser installed on your device. (if it don't works for the first time, just try it again)

4. After that you need to reboot your device and download and install "SuperSU" from PlayStore.

5. Install SuperSU and then Kinguser will aks you, if you will allow SuperSU root rights. Chose "Yes" and now you have the rootrights. IF IT DOESN'T you have to reboot your device several times (don't know why, I needed several reboots and then it worked)

NOTE: I don't really know why, but it seems, like Kinguser do not recognize, that it has root permissions at the first time. I had to turn off the permission in Kinguser options, restart and give Kinguser the root permissions again, than restart again. Just play a little arround with whis option of Kinguser. Somehow it will work than. I had to do the game twice, and it worked both times. But really don't know why. :rolleyes:

6. After that you need to update your binaries in SuperSU and reboot your device.

7. Then you can uninstall both chinese APPs (Kanguser can just be uninstalled with Titanium Backup) and you are rooted then :)

Hi, thanks for your post !

I can't go after the number 14 :/

At the bottom of the windows there is : Searching or USB but nothing happen.

I have installed LenovoUSBDriver and SP_Flash_Tool_Driver_Auto_Installer ...

I put the inf file in C:/windows/inf ...

I have tried in FastMode Boot on the tablet but nothing.

Where is my mistake ?

PS : I'm on Windows 7 x64

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English !
[Thinkpad Tablet General] aluk4rd:
I am not really shure, but I think its the step 6, what caused the problem. The drivers have to be installed manually, when you are plug in your device. it's not enough to "put" them somewhere. try to do this step by step, like i tried to translate :D

You open your device manager, turn your device OFF, plug it then on USB and than watch, when they appears a new device. very quick (you have 1-3 seconds I think), rightclick on it and than go to "Propperties", or "options" (dont really know what there is in your language ;) ). then "Update your drivers" and then choose the drivers manually. I hope it will help.

Question

Good evening I would like to ask you to do the tempering the rom that you put should be the same as the build number of the device that I have or that does not matter does not play a role build number ???
[Thinkpad Tablet General] aluk4rd:
Good evening.

as far as i know it is always a good idea to take the same build number,as you have. it can brick your device,because it could always be, that there are differences in the hardwre and also the drivers,between the builds.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] VelaJuel:
well my build number is B6000_A442_001_023_140811_ww_wifi but i can't find the same any help about were can i find it ?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] aluk4rd:
The buildnumer is B6000, and the only other important thing is the "wifi" at the end. So take just this one:

[ROM] Yoga 8 B6000_A422_000_059_131219_WW_WIFI

All the numbers between, are just patch-versions of your b6000 wifi Tablet ;)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] VelaJuel:
so the only metters is the b600 and the wifi at the last? the other number's don't metter?

thank you very much i will do you guide and i will tell how it goes...

All I want is the ability to select a contact and have the phone dial it. I do not want people to be able to dial using the numeric pad. I would like the pad to be password protected so that only an administrator can add or remove contacts. So basically when they hit the phone symbol it simply pulls up the contact list only.

Did you get it to work? I could hook you up with LGF400KATV10g + working updater script that wont require you to repackage the img every time you work on it. I might upload it to this development section in a few days (depends if I can iron out some minor bugs) all you will need to do is replace or delete the boot.img and edit the build prop to reflect your phone.

If you want to make a ROM for your phone I would suggest finding the Korean version that uses the same frequencies as your German version. Delete all of the Korean apps and hidden menu stuff and do a adb pull from your phone of all the stock German apps and hidden menu files and place them in the Korean build. After that edit the build prop to resemble your build prop (not a perfect mirror just the needed changes) then try to boot it up. Do small incremental changes so you know what helps or adds bugs. Just make sure you don't use the Korean kernel and you will have what is probably a better stock German rom than your factory version. Any questions don't hesitate to pm me. I am actually in a perfect spot to make you a base rom for your phone if you want to get me your build prop. From there you can modify it to your liking.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Movm:
But why is it better?

It depends on what carrier restrictions and carrier bloat your phone has.

Hi,

Can anyone direct me how to unlock my Verizon XV6600 phone
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sumokid:
to what carrier?

if its CDMA simply load the PRL file:

Go to http://corolada.com/prl/ and download a copy of the PRL file to your phone.

go to start->phone

Dial: ##778 Talk

service code should be :000000

go to PRL->browse

select the PRL file and hit update

once it finishes updating simply hit ok, and allow it to reset(ok again).

once it starts up your carrier is set up. you can go back into the service menu to change your number, and other settings as needed by your carrier.

the final step is calling up your service provider and giving them the ESN code off the back of your phone/listed on the "device info".

Enjoy your new phone.
