[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
I'm not sure if its firmware related, do you have a link to your greek generic rom?

Or else I'll use xperiafirm to download a greek 314.

I will try it, because its easier for me to check the bug.

Maybe your unit don't have the problem, then you'll be wasting your time testing, haha.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlanDS:
I don't think this would be solved by using other region firmware. I tried firmwares of almost all regions in the past. I suspect that this could be due to some changes in touch screen. They might have used different touchscreen on our phones.

As most of the people have not complained, I think this is limited to few phones only. If you have manufacturer warranty, it's better to take the phone to their service center and compare with other phones. Unfortunately, we have only distributor warranty here in Kuwait. So hard to convince.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Thanks for the info.

Ya, I'm gonna claim warranty. My unit also have the top right screen gap.

Sony QC sucks to the max. Almost all of my Sony products are defect and need to be replaced, especially expensive products...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer649:
Out of interest, what batch is your phone from? I have a 14w28 phone and the problem exists for me too. The screen seems like it is hyper-sensitive, unless it is intended and the glove mode shows where you are pressing since you are unable to see due to gloves.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
How do I know which batch is mine? I only know its one of the early batches.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
There is a pull out tab under the micro sd flap
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Mine is 14W20, means even earlier? Cause this phone is from carrier.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer649:
Yeah that's right. Yours is from May 12th to May 18th whilst mine is from July 7th to July 13th. Mine is an unbranded phone, no carrier ties whatsoever.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Mine is unbranded too, phones are not locked to the carrier in my country.

Since mine is earlier, then mine have higher chance of more defects, haha.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
I sent my phone to the service centre for 2 problems, the top right gap and this touch sensitivity problem.

They will replace the LCD for me and let's hope it solves the touch problem.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
So, they replace a new unit for me, this one is 14W33

Will report back whether the touch bug exist.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
This is good, i have 14w29B.

I only have problems with touchscreen when SELinux has a fit.

Lets wait and see for your feedback
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
So, on my 14W33, no more touch issues. So its definitely hardware issues, that's why Sony couldn't reproduce the issue on their newer Z2s.

Those with this problem can ask for a screen replacement. (I waited 1 month and eventually they replace a new one for me without fixing my old one)

Ghost touch

Did anyone of you figure this out? I ordered so to be told "OEM Screen replace with digitizer" and when I replaced it, it worked for 20-30 hours nicely and then appeared massive ghost touch. It is fully unusable, cant even open screen lock.

Anyway to figure this out? i've read about the sensitivity settings but i dont think i can change them without rooting? can anyone confrim this? and how about the rooting without usable screen?

Good morning everyone,

I'm not sure if this is a common issue, or it is just me. I often use my Z1C for torrenting and streaming while pluging in the charger, but the instead of charging, the battery keeps draining. is it a normal thing? sorry if this looks lika a dumb question, i'm really a noob around here, hehe :D

thanks in advance for the response :D
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
If the phone requires more power than the charger can provide, it'll drain. Straight logic.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosespl:
From USB port you can gain to 0,9A. Your phone drain in normal usage when screen is on 0,5A. But if you use your phone more than that it can drain about 1A-1,4A so you need normal charger minimum 1,5A or higher.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolkoushik07:
While charging, streaming n downloading make ur phone hot and the phone itself stop charging or control charging current thats why it behaves like that.. It is very fustrating and in cm u will get rid of it..

Thought I would start a thread for those folks using Goodlink on their 8525 so we can discuss our unique issues.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] weinson:
Some useful apps

So, here is my list of know goodlink/pocket pc issues (unless anyone has solutions)

no easy/quick way to switch between vibrate/non-vibrate email notification

no way to voice-dial from goodlink contacts (only from sim contacts)

no way to have notification light turn on when email comes in

Anyone figured these out?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] weinson:
Basic Tweaks

My final initial post -- for those neophyte users like me, here are the tweaks I have installed to-date just to get some added functionality out of my new 8525:

PTTfix (which enables me to use the button manager to re-program the PTT button [button 5] -- which I have now set to open voice dial when hit)

Magic Button (allows for seeing what programs are running and ensuring they are really closed)

mVoiceMail (allows me to listen to my corporate email wav files)

Vibra Switch (allows me to program a button to quickly switch between ring/vibrate mode -- I have programed my PTT button to do this when I push and hold down -- as opposed to a quick click, which turns on voicedial)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mbn:
I'd like to show more or less appointments on my today screen, and/or specify only all-day events or the entire day's appointments.

And I'd like the good contacts to work with outlook
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jsmcguir:
good luck on outlook integration. goodlink simply does not interact with pocket outlook. if you need the global address book, you simply have to use goodlink. after installing goodlink, i removed all items from the today screen except the inbox, and re-mapped the keys to my pocket informant calendar/contacts, and sync appts and contacts with activesync. i hate goodlink, but it's what the company uses. i hate how it tries to replace everything on the device, and how once installed you can't uninstall it. so i only see and deal with the inbox.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabres032:
Alright so this morning my wife handed me her Kindle Fire and said "It's not working, fix it." Well that is all I got out of her, nothing of what was she doing when it went borked. All she said was yesterday she put it in her bag at the beginning of the day and at lunch time, when she tried to turn it on, nothing happened. Great, troubleshooting without a clear problem is just how I wanted to spend my day.

Device specifics.

+Kindle Fire first gen

+OtterX bootloader v2.05

+TWRP for OtterX 2.7.1.0

+OtterX partition files

+SlimROM v6.4

Windows 7 32bit enviroment

Well anyway first thing I did was plug it in to charge it. Once I plugged the device into a wall outlet the power light turned orange after a second or two but the screen never turned on. Not to the charging screen or the ROM unlock screen. Ok, no biggie, she let the battery run down and it just needs to charge.

After a few hours of charging the power light was green so I unplugged the device. Thinking the device was in the charging mode I held the power button, it turned orange then turned off but no bootloader screen or ROM splash screen. OK so that's odd. Did a hard reset and second time I tried to turn the device on sane thing, power light turned green for a few seconds and then turned off, again no OtterX bootloader or ROM splash screen. Ok, now there is a definite problem.

Plugged the device into the computer and Windows made the device connecting sound and I opened Windows Explorer. In the explorer window I saw the device connected as an OtterX, opened the tab>internal storage and all the files and folders displayed. Opened a command window from the folder I have my adb and fastboot and ran the adb devices command and it came back with the device ID>device. OK so maybe the screen is hosed. Still want to troubleshoot and attempt to re-flash the bootloader, TWRP and the ROM before I say the digitizer is hosed.

Typed adb reboot recovery and Windows made the device disconnecting sound and a few seconds later the device connecting sound. I typed adb devices and the same thing, the device ID>recovery. I was successfully able to push and pull a test file so I know adb commands are working just fine.

Here is where I'm running into a problem. I try to type the command adb reboot-bootloader and nothing happens in the command window, nor does Windows make the device disconnecting sound. I also try to hard reset the device, type the command fastboot devices, turning the device on at the <waiting on device> but it just boots into the ROM and OtterX appears in the Windows explorer window.

How do I put the device into fastboot node so I can re-flash the bootloader and recovery? Mind you as I already said at this point nothing appears on the screen so pressing the power button as normal is out of the question.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
with OtterX bootloader v2.05, every time kindle is booting, fastboot commands can be used, but the window is short.

with kindle off, enter command

fastboot devices

then power on kindle, if you get a response like 123456789 fastboot

then you could try flashing bootloader again, but likely LCD is bad

unzip OtterX bootloader v2.05.zip, copy otterx-u-boot_v2.05.bin from cache folder, paste to your adb folder

verify md5:241A3FD1EDAD0A0D95886DDEB4693E1C

fastboot flash bootloader otterx-u-boot_v2.05.bin

fastboot reboot
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabres032:
I'll give it another go. One thing I forgot to mention, when I rebooted the device to recovery I pressed the power button and the TWRP screen briefly displayed. Then the screen went blank again.

EDIT: I try the fastboot>devices command, power on the device and Windows comes up with device not recognized and the device booted into ROM. I have confirmed this is also happening with my Kindle Fire so looks like I'm missing a driver. Both devices connect successfully within the ROM and Recovery so is it just a bootloader driver issue????

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Windows 7 or 8?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabres032:
Windows 7 32bit. I did a search of the forums and found a thread with a link for signed Kindle Fire drivers from Amazon. Downloaded, installed and rebooted system. Plugged in and powered up my Kindle Fire into SlimKat and Windows recognizes device and I'm able to transfer files no problems. I'll have to try the adb and fastboot commands later, I have to get my son to a college entrance exam soon. I'll let you know the results when I return home.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabres032:
Had to step away for a few days because work but now I have five days off to diagnose this fastboot issue. Anyway installed the signed Amazon drivers and adb still works with no issues but still unable to get fastboot to work. Next steep I updated the the adb and fastboot files from the Android SDK tools and still same issue. Next step I put my phone into bootloader and was successfuly able to issue fastboot commands so I know fastboot is working. Now I know the problem is isolated to the Kindles and not my system.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Use the drivers from the Kindle Fire Utility, the other drivers do not work with fastboot mode
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sabres032:
I'm on the OtterX partition, will the drivers still work or do I have to revert back to Amazon partition?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
shouldn't need to revert, just use the install drivers.bat, then reboot pc

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] miketunes:
I've been working on getting USB OTG / fast-charging working on my tablet, but now I can't get my tablet to transfer any data. Nothing when I hook it to the PC, ADB doesn't see it, if I put it in recovery mode it still doesn't see it.

I'm wondering if messing with the USB OTG/power killed my microusb port? I can still charge, just not get data. Anything I can try? I am using a certain car-based kernel, I was gonna restore to the stock kernel but would that be the issue if it doesn't even see it in recovery?

[General Accessories] bayermunich:
Great review, thanks. One thing I'm wondering for you or anyone who owns these or an older version is how well they stay in-ear. I've been hearing these are great budget headphones and your review attests to that fact, but I'm always in the market for a good pair of earbuds that have good sound quality, not TOO expensive, and stay in my ears when running/exercising. Any guess on how they'd hold up in that respect?
[General Accessories] vectron:
For running/exercising you will need something more durable with in-ear stabilizers. Otherwise, you need to use Comply Foam tips. They will be wedged in your ears and create a perfect seal which enhances the bass.

For the one with stabilizers, these one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2673036 were great and also these one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581215 - CKX9 sounded great.

[General Accessories] SUPERUSER:
I have these but I can't find a pair of comfy eartips. I tried them all that was included, and the ones that came with my Xperia Z ultra. And I ended up taking the old eartips from my Sony MW600 bluetooth headset. Still I'm not fully satisfied..I get the feeling that they are not getting squeezed in there like they should. Its like I can still hear outside noise from the street and people talking and cars driving by.

These pair of in-ears might not be right right for my ears so I ordered the "TTPOD T1E". Hopefully they might fit my ears and isolate outside noise better.

But other than that the sound is outstanding for the price I paid for these! :D
[General Accessories] frnt:
I just bought this today. it sounds amazing, but you need to use the right eartips that fits your ears, i found this troublesome for me at first, because with the wrong eartips, you wouldn't like how it sounds.

I also have SM MP21 [so now i own two SoundMagic products :D], the sound quality of E10S is way better and accurate. The bass is not overwhelming like MP21, it's just right. The MP21 have higher sensitivity than E10 & E10S, so with the same volume MP21 will sound louder. For ergonomics, i feel that MP21 is more comfort in my ear than E10S.

E10S is an amazing product for the price, i hope it will sound better after break in.

I also tried the older E10 and E30 at the store, i think there's a difference between E10 and E10S, i feel the bass is louder on E10, E10S overall sounds smoother. E30 i don't like the way you have to attach them to your ears, the sound of E30 is more similiar with MP21 but with more controlled bass. E10 & E10S sound brighter and detailed, you could say that they are airy.

I could be wrong with E10 and E30, because i'm testing them at the shop i bought the 10S, i don't have lots of time to tinker with them and the shop surrounding is noisy.
[General Accessories] HiatiX:
hey... I am a bass head.... how is the bass of these earphones.... also are they comfortable and stable while doing mild exercise?
[General Accessories] vectron:
Bass is ok, but not the strongest. Staying in your ears will depend on eartip fitment. But, these are definitely not a basshead headphones.
[General Accessories] Deagles:
I have the e10m and I'm using them with the g3 they sounds really great beyond the price also it has very quality aluminum earpiece design.. But unfortunately i can't say the same for the cables and control unit they both very poor quality cheap plastik you have to take care of it so gentle.

It damages so quickly and easily, i start to use them since almost 1 month ago in the gym and now controls doesn't work anymore but, there is more it randomly turns down the volume or does the opposite it turns up all the way up on its own and blow your earphones of course your ears too.. Also sometimes it activates the stupid google search and stops the music.

As you can image it's so much annoying you want to throw them away when these things happens. Other than that they sounds really awesome the bass is solid and it doesn't really overcome the mids and highs.

I'm open to earphone advices btw, which is kind of the e10. Basses can be even more powerful i don't care but it shouldn't be less than e10's i'm a little bass head i think.

Note: Sorry for the possible grammar fails and corrupt sentences I'm not using this language often.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finalfantasy:
I've got a Galaxy S III (i9300) with a very shattered front glass. The display and digitizer works just fine though. Menu, back and home buttons too. Everything is working, i just need to replace the front glass. I've once replaced the whole front package (LCD, Glass, Digitizer) on a Galaxy S2 very successfully so i have some form of experience.

Will be my first time replacing only the front glass. Unfortunately i wont be able to put any LOCA there as i dont have any UV light. I do however some regular adhesive 2mm tape that i will put around the screen to prevent dust and stuff from coming in. Also i dont have a IR thermometer and i will be using a hair dryer. I know how hot it has to be by feeling it. I should almost not be able to hold my hands on the glass. It might take a very long time but if its possible to do it, im willing to try.

What i'm worried about is the glass shards that are in the middle of the screen. Most shards end at the edge of the screen so i can apply pressure there when im removing the shards. But the shards in the middle have all edges on the digitizer. I cannot apply any form of pressure towards the digitizer so im worried of how ill remove them. Also the left lower corner around the menu button is full with tiny shards. like 0.5mm-3mm shards. Im wondering what is the best way of removing them? BTW i still got the touch screen protection plastic on. It got bubbles now cuz of the cracks.

Here is a picture of how cracked it is. Its not exact but close enough. Paint is OP.

The black spot in bottom is where the glass is simply gone. It fell of after time. I put some tape over it to cover it up so nothing can fall in.

Any advice on how to remove these shards?

Very appreciated
