You can download Android Tweaker 2 from the Play Store.. That will allow you to install a Bravia Engine on any phone as far as I can tell. I use it on my PAC ROM and it definitely makes a difference. How it compares to the proper Sony Engine I wouldn't like to say.. To me it seems as good, but I haven't been able to do a side by side comparison to verify.

You would have been given all the answers:

- Can I use another users backup? > NO this will brick your device

- Can I restore my TA by just flashing any Stok ROM? > NO the TA partition wont be overwritten by any Sony program (Flashtool or Sony Update Service)

- Can I unlock my bootloader without backing TA up > YES but you will lose the DRM keys and thus some features

- Can I backup my TA and how? > See link above

- How can I restore it? > If you have a backup see link above otherwise: Not... Or check Sony Support/Service center.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuzibri:
Hi all,

I have a Xperia Z1 running KitKat and have a problem with app updates, wonder if I'm the only one or that others also suffer from this problem. I have disabled in the Update Center the automatic update of apps and also in the Playstore, nevertheless apps get updated all the time. Since I use mostly my data connection, this costs me a lot of data usage. Even if I set updates only to be done via Wifi, which is most of the time off, apps will get updated all the time via my data connection. Any ideas/fixes to solve this problem??

Thanks in advance and kindest regards, kuzibri

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
First go to settings/data usage. Set data limit. Or even go to settings/more/mobile and networks/apn and delete your APNs

Even if did not work, do the below method

Flash a stock Rom

Then see what happens
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuzibri:
Hi guys,

thanks for your replies. I already installed a data limit, but with your answers, the problem is potentially not solved. Question still is: How is it possible that apps keep on updating whilst this possibility is disabled in the Playstore as well as in the Update Center :confused:

kindest regards, kuzibri

Download Avast anti virus and in the firewall part, choose which which apps are allowed to use net

I don't know whether this option needs root or not

So if it needs, root your phone and maybe your problem will be solved
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuzibri:
Many thanks, will try it. It needs root access.

kindest regards, kuzibri
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaeedFazlollahzadeh:
Try the Avast

If didn't work, I think its name is AF WALL

It has a firewall that can let which apps could use net and which could not

And also it needs root access too

Hi guys!

First of all: Sorry for my bad english or mistakes... I'm a german and not perfect yet!

I bought a Vodafone VPA Compact II last month and i'm very happy with it!

Last tuesday, i made some changes on the motherboard of my desktop pc and today i plugged in the usb cable into my front-usb-port... The PPC crashed!

I think, i made a mistake while connecting the front-usb with the mainboard...

When i connect my phone with the normal charging-cable, its upper right LED begins to blink orange! (Before, the led was constantly turned on) Also, the battery life is going down from minute to minute!

Can anybody tell me, what happend to my battery? could it be, that the battery is dead?

Please help me! It's very important!

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silencar:
Hi,

since kitkat (4.4.x) there is a notification for upcoming alarms 2 hours before the alarm time (a second alarm clock sign on the left top of screen)

I dont need this notification at all and its annoyin because this alarm sign looks almost like e.g. a whatsapp notification.

Is there a way to permanently disable this feature?

thx :)

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jt12345:
Yes, I dislike it too. I searched everywhere for a way to disable it, but I never found a solution...
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BretAB:
Hi,

Although many users found this new KitKat feature useful, I found it annoying: I don't need to have an Upcoming Alarm Notification to remind me that there's going to be a real alarm in the future. Fyi, I'm running CM11 20141124 Snapshot on a Galaxy S4. Here's the fix:

Next time you get one of these Notifications, go into Notifications and long press on the Upcoming Alarm entry (note that the long press might have been on "Dismiss now"). You will then get a prompt to disable notifications for this type of notification.

I'll appreciate if you will please reply with the exact long press location.

Also - If someone knows how/where this can be toggled back on, I would appreciate that info.

Regards . . .

BretAB

P.S. As noted elsewhere on the web, if you don't want to see the little alarm clock icon the you see on the right side of the Status Bar (recall that I'm running CM11 20141124), go into Clock, click on the hamburger that's on the lower right hand side, choose Settings, and disable Show Icon. This seems to override the "Show Notifications" that is enabled by default in Apps | All | Clock | "Show notifications" checkbox (or maybe that "Show notifications" checkbox at this location is for something else?) .
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silencar:
Hi and welcome to the board,

I'm a little confused with ur post. See my questions below the quotes of ur post here:

first of all, to understand ur post: is this a quote from somewhere else?

Second: disabling the notifications in the app settings works BUT it also disables the way to snooze or stop the alarm from lockscreen - so, not very helpfull/usefull?!

so thats actually the question of u?

answer: there are two ways to get there:

1)

unlock ur phone, (an alarm in the next 2 hours must be active) scroll down notification bar (wiping from top of phone to bottom) and long press on the alarm notification and choose "App-Details" in upcoming popup

2)

unlock ur phone, open the settings (the generall android settings), go to "apps", than the overview for "all apps", there should be "clock" or "deskclock" for me its "Uhr"

there u can disable amd enable it

so its also the answer to ur next question, i guess?! (see below)

see point 2) above

:)

I have seen a million different MHL adapters for the S5.

I do like the sleekness of the Samsung OEM MHL adapter. However, its quite a drag to have to have an additional HDMI cable to use it. I saw a SlimPort HDMI adapter on eBay and was wondering if that would work with our S5s.

I see a lot of MHL HDMI adapters on eBay and some/most look crappy and require additional power to function where the OEM does not.

What are you guys using?
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] swainclubber:
I tried my partners Samsung cable for s4 and it doesn't work on my s5. Not sure if its a different method or the fact its custom ROM. Do I need a s5 specific adaptor?

I have been using one made by HTC (cost about $20) for a couple of years on many different phones with no problems. Just have to make sure it has power and that the input on tv is set first.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] swainclubber:
It worked on hers so it was setup fine. Must be my ROM. Sorry for the thread hijack.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Emexrulsier:
Normally I find unless the target device (app, tv etc) supports MHL then you need to supply additional power to get mhl working. Also there are different versions of MHL meaning some cables wont work with some devices.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Heloooo:
Right , I recently bought a HD2 to test out and try a few roms etc but the problem is that im experiencing lag with all of the roms that I try . Does anyone else have the same problem and how do I fix it ?

I have tried to use a nand install and data on ext install but they both give me a laggy experience .

I have also tried native sd with a class 4 card and im still receiving lag.

I just want to use normal apps like youtube , bbc , bbc iplayer and souncloud etc without any lag whatsoever .

+ the htc desire has a similar processor and ram but that phone doesnt get lag. makes me think im doing something wrong.

Thanks for the help !
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitman1376:
Well ...

Dear Friend ... At first let me tell you that your Question is in the wrong place and you should ask it in the Q&A Threads ... but anyway , about the lag , I think your HD2 needs a new Radio ROM ( If You Have EU HD2 , use 2.15.50.14 Radio ) also you didn't say anything about the bootloader ( if it's MAGLDR or CLK ? - I recommend you to try MAGLDR which supports .RMNET ) also I recommend you to try Typhoon CM7 or HyperDroid ROMs which are smooth and stable ... good luck

With Best Wishes

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Heloooo:
Hi , sorry about putting it in the wrong section , The radio is already 2.15.50.14 , the bootloader is magldr and no matter what roms I use , I experience lag . Even on the barbone cm7 roms.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitman1376:
Good ... thanks for the info ...

Alright ... so there should be a problem with MAGLDR ( As you have problem with any ROM you install ) so I recommend you to try CLK or Black LK and then reflash a fast ROM using HD2 Toolkit in the following order :

1 - Do a Task29 ( wipes the phone )

2 - flash CLK / BLK ( Important Note : use the nand partition size told in the ROM's thread for a specific ROM !!! for example , for this ROM use 150 MB NAND and 5 MB cach as the OP says )

3 - flash recovery ( - Optional - if you don't have )

4 - do a full wipe ( data factory reset + cach + dalvik cach should get wiped )

5 - reboot ( what a hard level :laugh: ) .... I think this should solve it ... remember that CM7 and some of non sense ROMs are installed on NAND and are faster than Data On EXT / Native SD / SD / etc. like Typhoon CM7 and others ...but , I don't understand what you mean of lag ? ... would you please give more details ? ( about : where / when / how / how long / etc. ) ... good luck

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Heloooo:
Thanks for all the help guys ! , Gapps showed up after a couple of re boots and I can also install the latest roms . My only 2 issues now would be that normal wallpapers downloaded from zedge app look of a very low quality and also the main issue would be that sometimes when I try to turn on the screen it takes ages and I cant turn it on , the buttons light up but the screen stays off and I have to pull the battery out.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitman1376:
Yess ... Right ... But ...

Dear Friend ... you're right ... but remember that Nand memory has a speed about the speed you get from a Class 10 SD which means with a Class 10 SD card , your SD ROMs work somehow as fast as nand ROMs ... But the thing is , he has a Class 4 SD card ( as mentioned in the OP)

which is slow for those ROMs ... but thanks for the advice ... good luck

Congrats Man ... Thank God that you made it ... Would you please name the current ROM ? ... I think you mean the sleep of death which appears in KK ( 4.3.X & 4.4.X ROMs ) in which you should rise the Min CPU Freq to solve it ... you can use many apps like " No Frill CPU " or " SetCPU " to rise the Min CPU Freq ... about the wallpaper app , I don't have any Idea I think if you use another app , you may get wallpapers with the correct resolution ...

Hi , the phone seems to be running perfectly now besides this small issue that I have discovered which is when I go to play some media sometimes , like music or a video or something there is a sound that comes out of the speaker which isnt part of the song or video , Its like a short fuzzy sound which comes at the start and then after that I have no problems.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitman1376:
Congrats Man ...

Well ... Thank God that you don't have any other lag problem and other problems ... about changing the ROM , I think it was a MAGLDR lag and your way to switch a ROM is completely Clear ... about the Sound , I think it should be about the ROM's code and if you switch into another ROM , it would get fixed ... I currently recommend this ( if you like GB - It's Super Smooth & Stable and is really Eyecandy ) or this ( If you like KK - it's the best of the Rest KK ROMs ) ... Good Luck

Hey , NP about the sig:cool: , The sound problem is there no matter what rom I pick its like a crackling sound that occurs for like 1 sec when the speakers havnt been used for some time and then doesnt occur until the next time I play something after leaving the speaker inactive . The reason why i know its not the speakers is that if I connect the earphones but havnt played any media then the first media I play the crackling sound will come through the earphones too.

Also I have searched for a link for BLK CLK but im unable to find it , would be appreciated if a link can be posted.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hitman1376:
