Why y don't use another app for camera. Try camera2. From slimkat ROM. It's the best just push it to system with permissions rw r r
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] srqrox:
I am new to the scene, if you could elaborate how to do that it would be great!

I always liked MIUI's camera and I.d love to have it on this rom too.
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] abbychauhan:
Follow the OP for instructions.. And this ROM doesn't have MIUI Camera..
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] srqrox:
Umm I am asking in the right thread.

Senior member 7sen advised to install SlimKat's camera2 to the user Soulburnerms to solve his problem and advised him to use adb push.

If he can install it, I thought i might be able to push MIUI's camera to this ROM too, hence mentioning MIUI.

I posted the comment wishing to ask him for the directions.

honami builds are going to be on hold for a while...

got my self a broken digitizer and a cracked lcd, after a "fatal" fall straight into concrete...

dunno how much time it will take to repair, need to get money first.. lets see if some of the income from my job at the end of the month allows me to send it to a sony repair shop..

and i cant ask for donations directly, so lets see how long will it take to get the honami back...

regards.

What about C6902

Sir can I try this on C6902 running .108 firmware?
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] ploopower79:
Yes! Just be sure to have your bootloader unlocked and follow the instructions in OP then flash the modem for C6902 afterwards
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Redvelocity:
Thank You! I managed to install the ROM and got it working, but I can't see PA preferences? I want to use phablet UI for my phone
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] abbychauhan:
It is not developed for Kitkat by PA team till now
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Redvelocity:
Oh!! I feel gutted :( the only reason why I unlocked my bootloader is to give my phone a phablet ui. Not fair
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] abbychauhan:
Use Xposed Phab7 Mod
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] deepongi:
You can lock it again, if you got your unlock key. Use Flashtool for the effect.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidtaker:
Does anyone know that Xperia Z2 Tablet works with

Stylus

? I mean regular tablet stylus like Wacom bamboo, Adonit Jot, etc.

I've seen a video on YouTube that shows it doesn't work well on it and we should push it so hard to work. is that true ?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasona:
Well I have the Bamboo Stylus pro(5mm) and I apply medium pressure on the screen for nice strokes so its kinda in between - not to hard but not to soft either.

So its alright

[IMG="test"]http://i.imgur.com/TWQ5JJP.jpg[/IMG]
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaddyWhale:
But in my experience it's not good at fine, detailed strokes like those you need for taking notes or writing a letter.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasona:
Yeah but in my experience with different passive touchscreen tablets they are never really suitable for notetaking in comparison with an active digitizer tablet
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidtaker:
Exactly, I have a Wacom Intuos 4 tablet for professional digital painting but my idea was to sketch and paint some simple designs with this little handy tablets. by the way would you tell me that is the stylus functionality as good as Samsung note 10.1 2014 ?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hasona:
If it is notetaking that you want then this tablet I am afraid is not for you if your going to use words by a stylus instead of a BT keyboard. It is usable of course but in no way can you make fine strokes that are as tiny as with a real pen. I have a surface pro 2 and that one is specifically made to support to these things.

For me I would choose a Surface Pro every day if I wanted a good tablet with pen support and the Galaxy note is a close second, so to answer your question - no, stylus support on the Z2 will never be as good as the Galaxy Note's because of the fact that one has real pen support and the other one doesn't.

I hope that helps you in your decision
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androidtaker:
thank you so much I appreciate it , I really like surface pro 3 and Wacom Cintiq companion but these are a little bit expensive and I can't afford it.

anyway I hope sony add some new features like stylus in upcoming Xperia z3.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bubu23:
the moded tw i found from other roms cant work on ng2 new roms can anyone help me?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Your question is vague - it doesn't give is any details or context.. It seems that you want a modified 5x5 launcher but you don't say why all of the existing one's don't work for you? I can only assume that you haven't done a forum search to find more modified TW launchers.

You didn't give us much to go on. Not even which S5 model or carrier you use. Or your firmware version. Maybe the ng2 alludes to the latter, but that is hardly the full descriptor for your firmware. If you've tried the assorted modified launchers in the forum and had problems with them, then you should elaborate in detail about your experience, so that we undersrand what you are looking for.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
I can't help you because you won't provide crucial details about your situation. All that I can tell you is that my 5x5 launcher works fine. And I'd wager that many of the 5x5 launchers in the forum would work for you as well.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
You're not providing relevant details about your phone. Nor apparently trying much of a forum search to find what you want. If you did, you'd already have the launcher you want.

Perhaps try this.

[Shield Q&A] ZURPLE:
Hello,

so I just got my Shield in the mail today and so far ... haven't done anything with it. I want to use RAM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2661067&page=9). This tool looks awesome and the developers apparently put a lot of effort into it. However, I am not a 100% sure what I should do next.

1. If I understood correctly, it also works with 4.4.2? My Shield is already at that version.

2. If not, I downloaded the 4.2.2 image from Nvidia Dev program. Are there any advantages to downgrade except for being able to use RAM?

3. Does streaming of steam games still work with 4.2.2? (My reason to buy the Shield :) )

Thanks in advance for any help!
[Shield Q&A] hexitnow:
Youre good to go you can use it on any version of firmware for the shield. I just paclaged 4.2.2 with it because of all the people that wantes to stay on 68

Am i missing something when it comes to staying on 68? Im on the latest ota and ive never had a problem with anything...

I use Sd Maid/unlocker and Fstrim premium of course so my android experience is a little quicker and smoother than others....

But ive never had an emulator crash, never had streaming crash, never had bad streaming, never had youtube jumps...whats the sole purpose of staying downgraded? Haha i had to have missed something...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lekmedm:
Hi all! I'm a noob to the site and a noob to smartphone modifications, so please forgive me for my questions and concerns. I've used forums for years on many topics and found the knowledge base to be incredible, so I hope you guys will help me out, too.

So, while my Skyrocket has generally worked very well for the past 2+ years, I have always felt it's not living up to its potential. I've read numerous threads on many forums to see what my fellow Rocketeers were doing. I think I've come to the conclusion that flashing a new ROM is the way to go, but I am a bit wary since I've never done this nor know anyone who has. My thinking goes along the same lines as my experience with computers... If you buy a Dell, HP, etc., you get the garbage that the manufacturer bundles in along with Windows. If you wipe the HD and install your own clean copy of Windows, you can usually get better performance without all that other stuff. Hence, the idea for a new ROM for the phone.

A few things have me wondering, though... There seem to be more ROMs available than flavors of Linux! I know choice will end up being a personal thing. My goal is really simple... I just want a clean OS that is stable, efficient, and runs the basic functions I am accustomed to. So, I am not looking to experiment or push the envelope. I want a phone that doesn't crash at the worst possible time, and one that can actually make phone calls! I assume that I will still be able to use the Google Play store to download apps (after installing the plugin thingy). My phone is from AT&T and is unlocked. Will it say unlocked after flashing a new ROM? Will Visual Voicemail still work? I occasionally use FoxFi to create a mobile hotspot. Will I still be able to use it? Or do other ROMs already have this feature unlocked (or bypassed)? I use apps on my phone mostly for email (Yahho/Gmail), calendar, FB, Instagram, YouTube, taking photos/video, viewing forums, and the like, besides making phone calls. In other words, what should I expect from a new ROM? How will things be different? I'm really trying to gauge if this is a worthwhile endeavor for me.

Sorry for the long post. I appreciate your opinions and experience.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] T.J. Bender:
It's always worthwhile.

The Skyrocket, to me, was always a case of OEM software that limited its potential. If you really sit down and tweak it, custom ROM, new governor, overclock, it's a beast of a phone that can still keep pace today. You'll have to balance performance with battery life--overclocking and switching to a more aggressive governor doesn't do you any favors there, and some ROMs are better about battery life than others. It's a great phone with a lot of life left, though, much more so than the vanilla S2 because the Rocket has LTE capability.

To hit your other questions, any app that is available on the Play Store will work. If a ROM needs a second gapps flash to get the Play Store (along with everything else Google ships) back, that will be made available and is a very easy install. I've never unlocked a phone, but I don't believe that a new ROM would lose that. Wait for someone else to reply, but I'd be shocked if it did. As far as what you want, there's a ROM to suit any desires. Most ROMs are pretty basic and look and feel like you'd expect a Skyrocket to. Some are designed to feel a little more like iOS, some are designed to be stripped-down (and faster as a result), and some are based on stock firmware and very closely replicate the original experience. It's up to you to read through the dev forum for the Rocket and pick the experience that's best for you.

As far as how difficult it is, spend a couple hours reading about flashing, how it works and why it works. Once you have that basic understanding of it and can follow a few simple instructions that are pretty universal across ROMs, you're set.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lekmedm:
Well, I'm giving this a try tonight. Fingers crossed!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Chris J:
One piece of advice: when you pick a new rom from "Android development" read the WHOLE thread associated with that rom, with special attention the the first couple of pages. Make sure you understand the process and any potential pitfalls.

First rom I tried I spent probably six hours reading. It was worth it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lekmedm:

I have Kandykat. It seems to be a good solid rom. The Google Now launcher is buggy though. I changed to Nova launcher. Other than that it's been fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lekmedm:
Thanks for the tips, Chris. I've been using Launcher3. What's the difference between these launchers? Everything seems to be running fine on my rocket now. Any tips on increasing battery life? Any tips on some nice customization?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Chris J:
Google Now launcher seems to have the annoying habit of forgetting the screen setup (app positioning) during reboot. Launcher 3 also exhibited the same problem. Launchers are a matter of taste, but Nova launcher seems solid and looks right to me. YMMV. It's easy to try a few.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] solure:
I am trying to edit a customer made 2.26 ROM, and have run into a couple problems:

1. I cannot find a nbf -> nba utility that will work successfully.

2. When attempting to use the imgfs_tools.rar set of utilities I do not see a way to list the current contents of a specified ROM.

3. If I was able to make an editable nba img of the ROM I want to edit, how could I add .NET Compact Framework 2.0 to it since it comes downloaded as NETCFSetupv2.msi (not a cab file).

Many of the people on these forums create customer ROMs all the time, could you please post your list of ROM editing/cooking utilities? I'd appreciate it much.

Searching and reading a multitude of posts is all I have been doing the past few days, but none have a complete answer for the entire process. I would appreciate your help, or at least a point in the right direction.

Thankyou...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airdwayne:
Hello all, i have a question regarding an Australian Telstra Galaxy S5 with att service. the phone works with voice and text but has no data or mms. i have added an apn from my sim card in a galaxy nexus that gets me edge service. i have found band selection in the service menu but non seem to make it any better. I'm sure LTE won't work but thats ok. as long as i can get 3g at least. do i need to flash say the att s5 modems? if so how? i have the modem file and another already extracted from the att firmware. thanks in advance.

Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900i branded telstra

i think firmware ANE1 4.4.2

Rooted
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Using a foreign handset on a system will never give you perfect coverage. That is by design, as both Samsung and carriers want to lock you in, not make it easy for you to change carriers. Or do so without buying a new phone.

The specs for your variant suggest that it has full coverage on ATT's 3G bands and partial coverage of their LTE allocations. You don't need an ATT modem, just make sure that your firmware is recent - which it will be by definition, as the S5 was only released a few months ago.

Unfortunately you didn't provide much detail, in particular whether you were roaming or a regular ATT customer. Things that you might check in general, that your phone doesn't blacklist any ATT MCCs (roaming restrictions). That you have the correct APN information and that your ATT SIM is properly provisioned for LTE.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airdwayne:
Thanks for the reply. I figured it out. In service menu, I was picking compatible gsm bands. Back to network screen in settings, had it on gsm/lte only. That was giving me edge. Read more into wcdma and used network mode wcdma/gsm. That gives me H or H+. I know I won't get lte but with that network mode and another apn, I'm satisfied with the end results.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
It sounds like you inadvertently blocked coverage with your previous settings. The default setting is automatic band select which should have worked fine.

Glad you figured it out in the end.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airdwayne:
Yeah. It was the apn that was hurting me. Default it used the wap.cingular apn. I put my sim in a galaxy nexus and used the apn that gave me. Plus changing network mode. Thanks though!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shaolin95:
Hello!

I am guessing I will have to reinstall but just in case, while trying to play South Park on Firefox yesterday the phone just went into a reboot which was odd.

Then it got stuck on the xperia wall paper trying to restart to I forced it to shutdown and tried wiping dalvik and cache partition even on my 3rd try and even reflashing the Doom kernel and still either gets stuck on the wallpaper or it will show the updating process then after the count down ends, it says updating apps and never changes from there.

I can feel the phone vibrating like it does right before it shows the home screen but it never happens.

So, unless someone knows of a miracle cure, it seems I will be reinstalling tonight.

Right now I am using my Wife's Note 2 with pink case...cool! :laugh:
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
boot into recovery

do nandroid back up

wipe /data and caches

reboot

If that was successful restore apps and data using one of the backup managers and reboot before each new app until you find the one that is the problem?
[Xperia Z2 General] MartiniWisdom:
Hello,

I bought sony Z2 few weeks ago. It's a nice phone, it's very smooth and I'm very pleased. But it overheats, not as much in 4K(which I don't use so no bother for me) but Creative effect just puts too much stress on a battery and the camera very quickly shuts off because temperatures of the battery go over 46 Celzis which is probably a treshold temperature. I hope sony will optimize their code in future firmware updates for Z2. I don't change phones often, this was a step up from first! HTC Desire(more than 4years ago) and I'm hoping to get a few years of from Z2. I did tried a bunch of roms on desire, but Z2 is gonna wait, it is so smooth and ofcourse because of the warranty. If they don't fix the overheating problem, next time I'll try samsung or go back to HTC if they manage to make a decent camera which they never did make in any of their models(purple tint, poor sharpness, whashed colors etc. I'll stop here, don't wanna turn this into a flame thread, just my couple of thoughts)

Also, what's with the HDR in manual mode - it says it takes two pictures, but it takes only one and the picture is the same as the picture I take with HDR mode off. I see no difference... Or maybe I'm doing something wrong with HDR?
