The magnets won't really do anything, their effects are too localised for any damage to occur. The only reason your screen flips is because the magnet sensor used inside the actual device is very sensitive.

imho.

I've had problems in the past with calls either dropping or going to voicemail when I've picked up - sometimes this is either because I've picked up JUST as the other person has gotten bored and hung up, and the phone still thinks they're on the line (that's just rotten luck) or it's due to some heavy CPU usage at the time (methinks).

That said, I had an HT634 before, and my two day old, replacement handset (HT643) hasn't done it yet... But again, I've not made or received that many calls since I got it. Not noticed any problems yet... I have been more cautious about what software I install on it too. It has to be something screwing with the events association (you know, 'on call do xyz' and that could be taking up valuable cpu cycles). Had this problem a lot more on my Alpine, also noted that if someone rang me it took almost half a second usually for the line to be properly connected - I still wait a little bit before speaking when i pick up on my Hermes, and I have a feeling that the delay is still there.

Meh.

I've decided to test the SIM in my old Nokia 6310i for a couple of days to see if that drops calls. If it doesn't then I'm going to RMA the handset back to T-Mobile and get a replacement.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] wintboy:
Just looking around as my T-Mobile Vario 2 drops around 50% of calls on answer too.

I thought it was a hardware issue at first but having tried the software "button" for a week, I am experiencing the same problems.

Any calls I make are fine, calls that I answer satisfactorily are good too, in fact, the quality of calls is excellent. Much better than my XDA mini s was (very "lumpy" quality on that one!)

Any body found a solution?

No, the phone is not bricked. As long as the screen comes on, you can recover.

It may be that mirror link is protected with the DRM keys?

Since I had my xperia unlocked mirror link does not work anymore, it also did not work when I had the unlock undone. Unfortunately, I have read to late save the TA partition :(
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
Although MirrorLink doesn't necessarily seem to enforce DRM for certification (as opposed to Miracast for example), valid keys seem to be a requirement on the device. I.e. MirrorLink and Miracast stop working after unlocking the bootloader.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3493119:
Hello [MENTION=1485492]Sully99[/MENTION],

Unfortunately Mirorlink and Miracast will not work without the DRM keys, and there is nothing you can do about it.

However, Throw and DLNA still works so you can use that to view content from your phone on a TV.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3493119:
Hello [MENTION=1485492]Sully99[/MENTION],

It's due to content protection and to protect Sonys propriatry technology.

Bare in mind that you're the cause of this, as bootloader unlock erases the DRM keys and this has been known for years.

Keelah se'lai,

GethPrime
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
Sony could (and should) definitely make it clearer that these core functions will be permanently disabled though.

Certain pre-loaded content on your device may also be inaccessible due to the removal of DRM security keys.

http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/unlock-yourboot-loader/

This is in no way a sufficient warning and I wasn't aware of this as well after reading several guides, I was just lucky that I had backed up the keys before unlocking.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sully99:
This is going to be and I am also aware that it was a fault of mine, it is no wonder that one time something happened when one thinks of the amount of information available only on Android, ios ... and so on.

I had only one Android Tablet which there was previously no talking and that's why I thought it is not a problem here. The biggest joke is that I would not at all have to unlock it for what I wanted to do since I had to rely on false statements;)

I understand that the authors want to protect their work but that they must not equal disable an entire function (which in particular can not be made ​​here again)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 3493119:
Hello [MENTION=1485492]Sully99[/MENTION],

The reason why It's disabled permanently is due to the deleted DRM keys which can not be recreated without a backup. These DRM keys are used to encrypt the Miracast content, therefore it's disabled if you unlock the bootloader.

Keelah se'lai,

GethPrime
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sully99:
The keys are still in the media Files, why must deactivate what else then except the media even if the DRM keys of the device are gone?

I can therefore only hope that it maybe is in a Custom Rom which allows another alternative to working with my Alpine, because the bootloader unlocked anyway and the DRM protection is gone all does not matter anyway. :crying:;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] festizzio:
I'm having a similar issue, but mine's a little different. I had a brand new phone, rooted and with DRM keys backed up (TA partition, etc.), and I unlocked the bootloader. Afterwards, I installed LiquidSmooth and there was an option to do screen mirroring, and it worked perfectly, perhaps even better than when I was stock. Now, I've wiped that and installed SlimKit instead (after some testing, I prefer the stock based firmware), and the screen mirroring will no longer connect. Does the custom rom not require DRM keys to screen mirror?

Edit: Can't figure out how to delete, but I think I can just restore my DRM keys and go from there to miracast on the stock rom.

Hello!

I have a simple Question:

Is there a way, to absolutely remove or delete the bootloader or replace or flash the whole loader? I have to replace a

Bootloader on a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact! I think, Sony or a Provider loads the bootloader on the mobile phone, they

load it on the phone!!! -> so, they must be a way, to remove it from the phone!

A friend of mine has a crashed handy, with a crashed bootloader an he send the phone to sony, they easily repair the bootloader - so dont

tell me, that it is not possible to fully replace the bootloader with an other (newer or the same one).

So, how can i do this? What do i need for it?

Thanks and regards,

Stefan

I'm searching for a solution - if i find someone, i post an exactly instruction here!!

The bootloader from the Galaxy S4 were already "cracked", so they could replace/flash the old bootloader

with a new or other one - if my information is right?

A friend told me, that - maybe - i need a other(a special) connection wire to connect the phone with the pc, but

it is not impossible to get this wire - there are always people who copy this (china, russia, etc.).

I'm working with an app running at Windows Mobile 5.0 pocket pc. And I

use 'waveout' functions to play some audio file, sometimes my app need

to automatically make some phone call using TAPI. Here comes the OS

behavior which I don't want: the audio output is somehow muted. I want

the audio output keeps the same volume, is there any way do it? Thanks

a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
When call is in progress, audio path is changed. This is a hardware feature (you can read about it in many posts about answering machines).

Currently there is nothing that can be done about this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
I had not actually tested this so I gave it a go. No sound gets through when I programmatically play a sound or when I use the media player. I belive Levnum is correct because when I play a sound and hang up the phone during the play back, the sound returns but is choppy for an instant. That would be caused by the path of the audio being switched. When i programatically change volume it is normally very clean, eg loud to soft but with not noise between.

a bit off topic...

One thing that bothers me about this isolation of the phone audio hardware is the presence of the GSM 6.0 input properties for the microphone. If the hardware is truly isolated from the system then why have this sampling format? Wouldn't the phone be doing its own sampling and not need windows to have this capablity?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] reddreamster:
What a bad news! Thank you anyway.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SetoK:
experimenting with the volume during a call

In June played a lot with audio levels on my hp h6315 while using TAPI and recorded my results. The 6315 isn’t an HTC device but I think it probably works similarly. I have a wizard too, but haven’t experimented as much with it.

Here are my notes that I typed when I did it:

(perhaps they will be useful to someone)

I think my largest problem was the microphone gain, but I don’t remember for sure. On my typical volume settings, the cases where the volume level lowers, it often lowered so much that I couldn’t hear it without listening very carefully. Originally, I thought it was totally muted.

To help minimize the change in volume level, try adjusting the regular system volume to a relatively low level and put the phone volume on max. This helps some, but to fix the problem try multiplied the audio samples by 2 or more before playing them to the speaker. Find the best multiplication factor by trial and error.

Of course, your’s may be different.

For the off topic part, I thought the audio path for the microphone always was available to windows mobile and only the audio to the “telephone receiver” wasn’t.. There is only one microphone, but two speakers. The main system speaker is the one that you use to play wave files. The “telephone receiver” is the one that as far as I now is only used for telephone calls. I expect that this telephone receiver speaker is connected directly to the GSM chipset. I think when put on speaker phone the sound goes out through the main speaker. (I don’t have my phone with me so I can’t check right now)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
Yes that is what I think as well. So if the phone "chip" is recording/playing the sound using the same hardware why dose windows need to be able to sample at that rate? Its the phone that needs to do the smapling.

The drivers on individual devices can vary a lot when it comes to sound. For example, on some of my devices playback will comence as soon as I add buffers that are appropriately prepared. This is not correct behaviour - the driver should wait for the waveOutWrite before it starts. On other devices the driver continues playing until a buffer is finished even if the waveOutReset is called. When it comes to setting the volume with waveOutSetVolume I have has more varying results on just about every device. Because of this I think it is not very usefull to spend a lot of time perfecting code for this sort of thing. Even if as a programmer you do everything correct its going to sound wrong somewhere.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stemill:
If the phone can stream the call to and from a bluetooth headset then doesn't this mean the in call audio is accessible programmatically somehow?

Or am i missing something
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] levenum:
Actually there was a theory floating around that if you could create a 'fake' / virtual BT driver you could capture and send sound from and to the phone.

As far as I know no one on this forum has done this.

It should be noted that some companies like gigabyte are producing phones with built in answering machines.

I think the hardware separation thing may just be an HTC thing and even then only for certain models.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stuartaw:
reddreamster -

If you just want to play the audio to the user at the local end, and not down the phone line it is possible. As the others have said HTC keep the phone and local audio completely separate, so you can't play the audio down the phone.

Calling TerminateProcess to kill off cprog.exe can reduce the amount the system interferes in your TAPI calls ;-)

But to re-enable the local audio output this will probably not be enough. You need to call entry point 218 in \Windows\ossvcs.dll

This function takes 1 DWORD parameter, and you should pass the value 1.

I can't remember the return details, but it can be treated as a boolean:

if (return_code)

{ it succeeded }

Make this call AFTER you have made the TAPI connection, and it will re-enable the local audio output.

Hope that helps
