[Xperia Z2 Accessories] V4LKyR:
Xiaomi Piston is supposed to be fully compatible with the Z2, using CTIA to OMTP adapter. :good:
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] Lolento:
Can anyone confirm this? thx!
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] JJ2525:
It's not true. The audio will work with the adapter, but the buttons are still largely useless. There's a Xiaomi Pistons thread over at Head Fi about the Pistons that goes into this.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] mashed_ash:
AJays Fives work great with the Z2
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] dd66:
even the volume buttons? :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] mashed_ash:
Yep. The volume buttons work just fine.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] cHoLoCoY:
I've been using the Sony Smart Headset (has the traditional 3 buttons + smartkey button / control which you can assign whatever app or action you want,.... i have mines set to Google Now)
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] BobbyHenceMcGee:
May I ask where you bought them?

It seems very difficult to buy. But in terms of usefulness and compatibility with the XZ2 it seems perfect for me.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] cHoLoCoY:
i got mine's from Amazon like 2 years ago,.. but yeah they're getting pretty hard to find now,.... Sony website say's its on backorder,...

there's a seller on Amazon (Blue Point) that still sells it but i think they only have a handful of the item

here's the link http://www.amazon.com/Sony-1262-333...1409025684&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+smart+headset
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] Sequenzed:
The Xiaomi Pistons work perfect with the new. 167 update!
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] y2k2r2d2:
Really! I have piston 2 and really want to go ahead with the purchase but not sure If I would be able to use Z2! Are you sure?:confused:
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] RyTekk:
Why don't you use Sony's earphone? Such as MH1C that has 4 button control or NC31EM for Noise Canceling.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] Sequenzed:
Yep. All the buttons and mic work but with the latest update only.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] y2k2r2d2:
Those may not be bundled with z2, Since pistons 2 are already that good, I want to use it instead.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] kunaltyagii:
my friend bought pistons in india from flipkart online shop and i have a z2 updated to latest version. and they worked perfectly fine with all the buttons working properly. when i bought earlier they were not working when i had 4.4.2 FW.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] Knutselmaaster:
Simply install the app called soundabout to activate the output on the headphones.

This way you can use every headset you want.
[Xperia Z2 Accessories] hypergamer1231:
thanks for the positive review just ordered pistons

Update the Xiaomi pistons work perfect with the Z2 and they sound great as well...all button controls work....thx
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nutzzer:
All,

I've had my phone for about a month now and LOVE IT. The only thing that somewhat bugs me is the knock code or sensitivity of the screen. I would hold the phone with just my thumb on the screen and it would turn on....I then purchased the quick circle case and the same thing, if my palm or thumb should be touching the screen it would turn on.

Is there a way to turn down the sensitivity or knock code a bit?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crni6:
+1
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] furiify:
Haven't expected something like this. But for me, the Knock Code seems to not been recognized sometimes. If I enter my code, the screen doesnt turn on sometimes.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blaster1984:
Lol i think everybody has the opposite issue. Mine issue is that sometime i have to tap the knock code twice to wake the phone up. My lg needs more sensivitity :)
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KaidM:
Lock Code Sensitivity

I find that its not the sensitivity but the speed. If I knock too fast then the code is not recognised so if I my knock code fails generally have to do it again but slower
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AB_:
+1 on each issue!

I hold my thumb on the screen and it turns on when I don't want it to..

When I actually try to put in my knock code, or even knock twice to wake up.. I have to try multiple times
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fireproof Monkey:
Hi,

First off - thank you to the devs for the updates to the Xoom, it's great that this keeps going.

So I did the root/install of CyanogenMod 11.0 about 3 or 4 months ago on my Wingray Xoom & everything went pretty smoothly.

I think there have been 2 updates with out a problem (I am currently on build: cm-11-201-40708-unofficial-2037+0200)..

I see there is a new update. It acts like it's downloading, but then does nothing & needs to download again.

The version I am trying to get is:

cm-11-201-40806-unofficial-2004+0200

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks,
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beston94:
Hi there mate,

Are you by any chance using a CM downloader app from the play store? If you are, why don't you just download it off the computer and transfer it to your xoom and flash it through recovery?

With regards,

[XDA Assist] developer209:
Hi everyone. I was given this NS-14T002 tablet for Christmas and after speaking to an insignia employee they promised the update from 4.2.2 to KitKat to be sometime in early summer or late April. Well as you can tell they're a bunch of liars. They recently release a new tablet called NS-15at08 with almost the exact same specs, the only difference being it has a rear camera and it has 1.4 GHz instead of a 1.2 GHz processor. Most importantly the NS-15at08 runs on KitKat. The tasty chocolate I so desire!

Anyways I'm curious as to how difficult it would it be to port it over. I've never ever ported a thing so I'm a bit worried about that but I need myself some chocolate.

My next thought was finding a well-known tablet with the same specs as mine and flashing a custom ROM made for that device. Would this or would this not work? This was actually my preferred way of solving this horrible issue since it would be mean I would most likely also receive Android L. I scoured the web for a device with similar specs but returned empty handed.

Maybe you can help? Here's the specs let me know if you need more information.

I think this thread [GUIDE]How To Port Different ROMS to Your Device (Simplest and Fastest) would be of help to you.
[XDA Assist] developer209:
I appreciate your reply but I was wondering if it would be possible to just flash rom without having to port. A ROM from a device with identical specs.
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
No. Never. Not unless you love expensive paperweights.
[XDA Assist] developer209:
Okay but I just read the thread and it said I won't be able to upgrade to a newer android version which is kinda the point of me trying to port.
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
No you can not upgrade unless you have got Source from the Manufacturer.
[XDA Assist] developer209:
If I ask for source code they have to give it to me don't they?
[XDA Assist] Perseus:
It depends on the manufacturer. Some might others may not.
[XDA Assist] developer209:
They said yes and they will email me the source code in a few hours. Now what? ?
[XDA Assist] Perseus:

What a joke. Laser auto focus.....ha. This thing takes pics as fast as my old S3. I don't know of there's a setting that's not default or something but a 2sec lag between pics to focus...come on! Any type of seeing I'm missing?
[G3 General] crni6:
Autofocus is best thing about camera...few days ago I take picture while Iam driveing car about 40km/h and pics was great...
[G3 General] android_4life:
I took a pic while moving also and it looked good. My concern is when you take multiple pics at once it lags between pics to refocus if you move the phone a little.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Szarko:
All I ever see is people discussing Knox.

Knox aside, what is the actual difference? Besides needing to flash certain modems if you are the older bootloader, what are the differences?

Are there any actual performance/functionality differences.

Does it matter if one stays on the old bootloader and runs 4.4?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] helmanss:
Hello guys,

recently I was given an offer from a company, which wanted me to sell them my application - Air Swiper.

Now I wonder, what do you guys think the price for the app should be set to?

What could be its real price in your eyes? That is what I would like to know.

What are your opinions? I am really curious about it and I would really like to discuss it with you. I would even like to ask you guys, is the app worth selling or should I keep it?

I am a total beginner in selling things like these and thought, people on XDA could have some idea.

Please be honest and share you thoughts.

Thank you everyone so much! :)

Still no one, who could help me? :( I am getting really curious, since I have never got myself into a situation like this and I would appreciate a help or even any useful feedback. :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Jonnibravo:
Cant say I've seen the app but intellectual property is difficult to t a price too unless you have sales figures. I would invest some time in looking at the company looking to buy your app to gauge what kind of offer they may be willing to pay, in addition ask yourself does you app have multiple uses can it be applied to other uses ect... and work from there.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] helmanss:
Well I was thinking about what you have said. And.. the first thing is the price they offer is 2500 USD, which from what I was discussing is probably a good one. And my app can be applied to a lots of uses or at least I think so. :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ph37rd:
More uses means more money.

They want your app at 2500, first offer. Why not counter with 3500 and if the balk then meet half way at 3000. You just picked up an extra car payment. You get the idea?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] helmanss:
They want maximally those 2500 so I am curious if I am not going into a fail, because a lot of people told me that it is a low offer.

[General Topics] Remorcer:
This was stated on fsfe.org

I guess our warranty isn't voided, it's just that phone/tablet manufacturers don't care...
[General Topics] enapah:
Indeed!

They may even be fully aware of the law and deep down know that rooting doesn't void your warranty. It just so happens that, in order to legally challenge their bad claims of a void warranty, (in most countries) you would have to spend way more in legal fees than what the phone is worth...

Shameful tactics, but it's business nonetheless.
[General Topics] :
Thank you

Thank you for this information ! I live in europe and before I read this, I didn't root my phone because I need the warranty ! :fingers-crossed:

Good to know. But when I rooted my phone, I didn't think too much about voiding warranty. I just assumed that hardware won't break that easily but I can deal with the software. :)
[Moto X Q&A] triton302:
I honestly don't want to go through the BS of having to do a bunch of stuff to update my VZW Moto X to 4.4.4, and the only thing I want out of the update is the camera, the dialer isn't important to me. So, is there a way to get the camera enhancements listed in the update without taking the full update?

EDIT: forgot to mention I have the Dev Edition, fully unlocked and rooted.
[Moto X Q&A] :
You can try to extract the camera apk and any supporting files... And see if you can install it. If so great, if not.. Nope.

---------- Post added at 05:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

You would need root I imagine too. For the supporting files to be placed. I'm guessing.
[Moto X Q&A] triton302:
I forgot to mention I'm unlocked and rooted.
[Moto X Q&A] :
Well extracting the apk is simple enough if you have the 4.4.4 files... But I'm not sure what supporting files might be needed.

I'd definitely do a nandroid backup first.... Cause there's a good chance it could cause issues... And restoring the nandroid would wipe out what you tried.
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
I read the main camera improvement is due to the 4.4.4 kernel?

If so, then "porting" may be impossible.

Hey guys,

Next word suggestion doesn't work with the default keyboard in the input settings.

I had the same problem when I put CM on my S3.

When I had the S3 on stock it use to work until I put CM on it and now the same is with my OPO on stock.

It doesn't work on my sisters LG G3 as well so I'm wondering if we're doing something wrong.

It rarely works and maybe only with the words I added to the dictionary.

A temp fix I found was to install the Google keyboard and now it works perfectly again.

However I want to get it working with the Android default AOSP keyboard.

Could someone please confirm if they are having the same issue.

Thanks

Inspired by this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1885399&page=22

I wanted to play a bit to join my XPS10 to my home domain. But

Well... it's for .net 4.0, AFAIR we have only 4.5, yep (?) And I was to lazy to read sourcecode.

So I loaded project into Visual Studio, changed target to 4.5 Any CPU. After that:

1. Took ownership of c:\windows\system32\sppsvc.exe and removed all rights (so noone, even system can execute it)

2. Created a copy of runJailbreak.bat and removed all exit commands in it (as a workaround for closing cmd - that will be needed later)

3. Added in registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup

SetupType=1

CmdLine="cmd.exe"

4. Reboot

After reboot I got cmd window on bootscreen background. Somehow, mouse cursor disappeared even with USB mouse.

5. Started jailbreak by running modified .bat

6. Started attached ProductPolicyEditor, enabled WorkstationService-DomainJoinEnabled policy, wrote changes to registry

7. Closed PPE, cmd, system self restarted in normal mode

8. Connected to domain as usual.

Proof - screenshots attached

After this RT went to not activated state. But when already connected to domain, I reverted changes I done (changed policy to 0, restored sppsvc rights), activated it again - everything works, computer is still in domain, only change is that in system properties I can only leave it, not change to another one.

This method may be used to exploit more hidden RT features.

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] mbjun:
You can also get "full BitLocker" from "limited Device Encryption" by changing:

SecureStartupFeature-Enabled-Premium

from 0 to 1

Then you can for example add USB-startup-key to encrypted OS volume by:

manage-bde -protector -add C: -StartupKey

...after changing back to "non-Premium" created start-up key protector will stay (survive),

so instead of nonsence TPM (which unlocks drive everytime unless you rip storage outside TPM chip), you can have fully encrypted and protected tablet.

[AT&T LG G3] dimabrook:
keep in mind that ATT shipped with ver. 10d, which is ahead of some other variants. we're technically not that bad off. lets hope att is bundling updates together. it's a huge task for att to certify each small update.

The only thing i need fixed is the damn data issue. All to frequently when my phone goes from LTE to H+ my data gets wonky and wont work. toggling airplane mode isn't a huge deal, but it shouldn't need to be done.
