But the LG G3 camera app is built completely different, other filenames, different content structure and so on.

Is there away that the G3 Stock Camera App can be ported to AOSP?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
The battery life of the Z2 Tablet is already really good - but I looked for more :cool:

Aside from the usual things like debloating, Greenify etc. I found the following helpful (ROOT, custom recovery, busybox needed):

1. In the Settings of the tablet, enable "Stamina Mode" (of course, if you didn't already).

2. In the Stamina mode menu, check "Restrict performance". I have no clue what it does, but since I don't think Sony incorporates a placebo in it's firmwares I guess it does something.

You'll notice that the performance of "normal" apps (which are not games or other heavy-load stuff) will be as before.

3. Now "my" tweak:

Download a kernel tuning app - I use "Trickster Mod".

Increase the Read Ahead Buffer Size to 3072 (default: 512).

Change the I/O scheduler from ROW to DEADLINE.

Change the CPU governor from ONDEMAND to INTERACTIVE.

I now have clearly longer battery life, and at the same time operation is as snappy as ever.

Would be great if some people also test this and report.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] rokrd1579:
I will try and i tell you if it works :):D
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Frankus99:
Thanks for sharing your settings.

Will test it now.

I wonder, why no one tweaks the stock kernel.

In my opinion it would be useful to undervolt the kernel.

But maybe in future ....
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] jef_k:
Tried. When the tablet goes to deep sleep it results a "deep sleep of death". Have to force a reboot of the tab.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
Oh, that's unfortunate. Are you sure you applied exactly the settings above?

I have the tweak activated for several weeks now, and never had such problems.

Seems to be dependent on the individual device...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] jef_k:
Yes, I've applied the same settings than you've listed in the first post of the thread.

I suppose that it dependent on the individual device, as you wrote.

I've restore the settings to the default and it seems that the SOD problem are still there. I assume there is another cause.

I've seen that I also lost the access to the recovery, impossible that your settings be responsible in this case.

Investigation in progress...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] jef_k:
Solved!

I've reroot my device and reinstall the recovery, no more problem of SOD and get now again access to the recovery.

But, reapplied your settings make the same problems, SOD and no more access to the recovery.

Seems to be dependent on the individual device...

No matters for me but other have to take care.

My device : Xperia Z2 Tab 16Gb Wifi, root, locked bootloader, last stock rom from Sony (.402), dual recovery installed (CMW, TWRP, Philz's)

Regards
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SANGER_A2:
I followed the op yesterday and have had no issues so far. Haven't noticed it running slower either. If you try stability test, the cpu is still running at max speed of 2265mhz so this doesn't seem to underclock the cpu when it's needed, if you run it when the battery is lower it's only 1.9ghz. I'm not sure if this is because of the restrict performance option or because it's gone into low battery mode. My low battery mode is set to kick in at 10%, so I'll test the cpu speed at 20% when it eventually drops that far. Incidentally, stabilitytest is a great way to discharge the battery if you're at 5% or something and want to run it completely down before charging.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SANGER_A2:
So I've done a complete cycle and got over 8 hours of usage out of this Beast along with 3 days of sleep time. Much better than before. Thanks a lot!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
As I said! You're welcome! :)

Nevertheless it seems important to point out that this tweak should be applied wirh CAUTION and only with a backup (since it seems that some devices somehow have difficulties with the settings and crash).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] sfkaudi:
What is your production number ( week/ year)
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
Uh...pfff...let's see...it's a quite early model, I bought it about 2 weeks after the German launch...

Don't know where to look for the production number, there are many numbers on the tablet, none containing digits which look like a production date...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] schurgatzi:
It could be a good idea to add the software requirements ( like custom recovery, busybox...) to your first post.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Moscow Desire:
Having a custom recovery really has nothing to do with the settings in the OP. All that is really needed is root access. Most OEM builds don't usually show "all" the governors available, but a CPU app will. Understand, you run a risk that the extra governor may not be properly coded to run with the current CPU.

As with the one user with the disappearing recovery, if Sony does like several other tablet OEMs (Acer for example), they have a recovery sh file, that reflashes a stock recovery on a cold boot. Most of those root programs/CWM recoveries remove such file. Drives people crazy if they don't know.

I'll test this theory tomorrow when mine is delivered.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] schurgatzi:
I just tried to follow the steps...

I had root, but for trickster mod u need root and busybox working.

And I wasn't able to install busybox without an custom recovery...

So as long as op points to trickster mod as a tweaking app I guess you have to have root+custom recovery->busybox

If there is a way to install bb without a cr just tell me.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SANGER_A2:
There are several apps on the market that let you install busybox if you have root.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
Or simply install XZDualRecovery, and there you have your custom recovery.

Where is the problem? I don't understand some people...
[LG Optimus 2x] tubara420:
I have a problem with this phone. I got it locked to a network so i rooted it and changed bootloader to new bootloader and instaled kowalski kernel ((alpha) now I'm on M1 and the problems are still here)), after that I tried many different ROMs but I get the same problem all the time. First problem is that my phone finds a network and I can recieve calls and messages but no data connection and I can't save an APN (I fill in everything and when I click save it just brings me to APN settings without the APN iI tried to create. Second is the random reboots, it just happens when I do stuff (doesn't matter what). And the last is bootloop which happens and then I leave it just to turn it on later without problems.

Could you please help me and tell me what kernel, ROM, bootloader, baseband and everything to install to make it work. I don't care about the data that will get erased. I just want it to work (even on stock ROM and kernel which I can't find) THANK YOU IN ADVANCE GUYS

I was wondering if anyone has opened the standard TyTN headphone plastic connector box? I want to change my headphones but need to get into the case. Does it just clip apart or is it sealed(glued)?

I can't afford to make a mistake as they are not available in South Africa yet.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] bobstarina:
It's very simple. There is no glue in it. Just get a very sharp knife and separate two parts (they are connected together with clips).

I've already replaced original headphones with Creative EP-630 isolator headphones.

Difference is very sugnificant!

can you guys explain step by step what it is necessary to do and if possible to post more pictures of the process.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] B-Driven:
Hmmm...

open the mic box

unsolder the headphones

solder new headphones

close mic box

That's all. Not so difficult.

All you need is soldering iron, solder, flux, wire stripper(or knife), and new headphones.

When you cut & strip wire of new headphone, you'll see where to solder.

Red to RIGHT, green(or blue) to LEFT, the others to GND.

This article will help you.

[General Questions and Answers] raheem.syed.786@gmail.com:
Hi,

I have wrote this post to notify everyone that how much secured our mobile phone is:

I googled for the mobile device security apps & I found many security apps, but all these apps are of no use to trace once mobile is done factory reset/flashed.

this is because maximum security apps are either depending on the Gmail account(or other accounts) or installed security apps logined/stored data in the phone to find/trace the lost device

& also these requires DATA & GPS to be enabled or at least sim to be inserted.

So, once mobile is done factory reset by pressing the hard keys combination (maximum theifs does not care of mobile data) all the gmail/facebook....etc accounts which are synced & installed security apps with the data are lost &

which makes the device untracable.

now in this case only hope will be with the IMEI tracker, which can be done by the cyber police only &

Which is the headache task for a device owner to get get help with the cyber police in tracing the mobile.

what could be the solution, after my small analysis i think the solution would be providing the high security from Google/Iphone and OS frameworks level only as mentioned below.

1. Security Level

A Google primary account & Owner phone no which is synced with device should not be erased even after factory reset.

The removing/changing of Google primary account & Owner phone should be PIN protected.

Then whatever changes like SIM change, Google primary account or Owner phone no added/changed, Factory reset done to that device(may be some more scenarios we can add)

should be notified with proper info containing the current inserted SIM info/changed primary account info to the already/previously registered Google primary account & also same notifed as SMS to already/previous registered Owner phone no.

[This activity should be done till delivery report is success.]

still analysing for more security levels
[General Questions and Answers] droidx2.3.3:
Ok so here's the deal.

I'm going to school in a week and the dorms don't have wifi (why I have no idea). So I will need obviously to use cell data. I have Verizon and I'm on the 2gb plan (not family share). I have a note 2 if that matters. My sister has a iPhone 5 and has 4gb. She got it when they ran a double data promo.

So I will easily go through the 2gb in a month but I think I can handle 4gb and stay with that.

So does anyone know what I need to do to make this happen? Is it a matter of just calling Verizon and telling them to switch them? Or is it more complex than that? Thanks for any info.
[General Questions and Answers] droidx2.3.3:
I ended up just calling. They said it can't be done. I know that's a load of bs. They just want me to upgrade to a bigger plan. They claim that since the 4gb was had during a double data promo that it must stay with that number.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] storyr:
I built a Today plugin (with a little help from folks on this forum) originally for WM5 devices (you can see it here). Everything works great.

Based on user requests, I re-targeted it to work on PPC 2003 SE devices also. Here's the problem: Now, the Options window won't open until the plugin is actually loaded. In other words:

1. After a fresh install, go to Today settings, highlight plugin, click options - nothing happens.

2. Check plugin, close Today settings, re-open Today settings - Options now work.

Any thoughts an why it behaves like this? I've compared the two versions ad nauseam, tweaked this and that to no avail. (this was built using VS 2005)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
The options + the today item code are in the same dll and it dose not get loaded until after the items window is dismissed. This is normal behaviour and there is not much you can do about it. If you watch the task bar you will notice a flicker at this exact time (ie closing items window). I think a system-wide message is sent at that time to indicate a setting change. Find that message and you may have something to work with but there is no garantee that your item will get loaded even if you send that message during the installation.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] storyr:
Hey - thanks for the help! Similar to your suggestion, I implemented a post-installation step (another first for me) that executes SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_WININICHANGE, 0xF2, 0); This refreshes the Today screen, causing my plugin to load immediately.

Perhaps version 1 always did this and I just didn't notice...
