[Xperia Z2 General] Mr.R™:
Yea I've realised how bad Sony service is, not just in phones but other products also, I won't be purchasing another Sony device, the ps4 being the only possible exception but then again I'm a proper gamer so I play the majority of games on pc :)
[Xperia Z2 General] TeeJayEss:
I had a similar situation - my previous Xperia Z was a tank (in a good way), put it in my pocket, sat on it (lightly), dropped it, everything, barely a scratch let alone a cracked screen after 18 months. After a couple of months with the Z2, I thought I was being way more delicate with it, and one day I took it out my pocket to find part of the screen wasn't touch sensitive anymore, and found a hairline crack running from around the bottom of the SIM/MicroUSB port cover, across to the bottom of the MicroSD cover.

Given it coincidentally ran from one weak spot on the frame structure across to another, I suspect it's a lot weaker here and allows more flex, so allowing the glass to fracture. Didn't even bother with the warranty, I knew what Sony would say - I took the hit with the £75 excess against my phone insurance
[Xperia Z2 General] hanosky:
Well, when I had iPhone 4S, Apple replaced my iPhone 2 times even if was hardly scratched and dented. They don't repair iPhones, they replace them, which is a great thing. SONY and other companies should learn from Apple.
[Xperia Z2 General] jaivardhansingh1996:
Same case f##k Sony

My z2 was water damaged and now they are f##cking with me asking me to pay 400$ for new z2 f##k them
[Xperia Z2 General] kamalmawa:
I don't think any company including apple covers physical damages under warranty. Friend of mine also broke her S4 screen from keep it in her jeans pockets which she had to pay for repair. I also dropped my Z2 and broke the screen but luckily I was able to claim it on insurance and they sent me a refurbished device as a replacement. Water damages also fall into physical damages and won't cover under warranty.
[Xperia Z2 General] stanley08:
Here in Africa, Samsung covers both Water Damage (Replacing Motherboard) and Screen replacement, any of the 2 or both of the same. TWICE!! Over a period of 2 years. This including Regular warranty you get, for 2 years also.
[Xperia Z2 General] Xaroc8:
I don't think anyone really covers physical damage. Too many people have the story of, "I had it in my pocket and suddenly it cracked." though they're too ashamed to admit they simply dropped it.

Also, are you talking normal warranty, or Sony Care purchased warranty? I bought the Sony Care warranty and the guy told me I could smash my phone right in front of him, and he'd simply hand me a new one. I phone that's waterproof, I have my doubts. That was mainly the reason I purchased the Sony Care.
[Xperia Z2 General] GrossmeisterB:
I am talking about the normal Sony warranty (which is called "Sony Care" over here - no joke).

I'm really disappointed, even though in a way I can understand them (a lot of people will claim the phone got broken by itself), but on the other than: I had two of the devices not working after just a few weeks of usage, so I'd expect a little bit more instinctive feel from Sony to say "OK, send us both your phones and we'll repair them".

Google replaced the cracked screen on my Nexus 4 without a hassle! I even had the new one here before I sent the broken on back!

They didn't even ask what has happened to the device, even though it HAD some signs of wear allready - not like the Sony which looked brand new!

Another funny story is, that on the UK the BBC reported about the problems on the Z-series and Sony offered all UK-customers to replace their broken screens - but only in the UK, because it was on TV there...
[Xperia Z2 General] pr0jesse:
This happened to me too! I sent Sony a mail about repairing or replacing the phone and one Month later they said no because a 3rd party company had repaired the phone while i havent repaired the phone yet?! I repaired the phone and now it isnt waterproof anymore.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Getsuga121:
Each time I try to install, my phone crashes.

I'm on XT1028 Verizon locked bootloader, is there any fixes for this?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] directlyobservable:
So I tried using this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1907796[/ to URL] to return my soft bricked nexus 7 to stock but it was to no avail. Basically my nexus (rooted w/out using toolkit) got screwed up after trying to do the 4.44 update using a toolkit (wugfresh) and I am stuck in the bootloader loop. The guide was going well until I got to step 5 (device was not going into fastboot mode).Note about drivers: I downloaded and installed the drivers through device manager (plugging in the device didn't install them). Anyway if anyone can give me advice on how I can resolve this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norwoodesteel:
i already had the drivers installed via wugfresh but i tried to update a new/refurbished 7 and got that 1/2 google, 1/2 fastboot image bootloop.

tried 3 times, re downloaded factory image etc. it kept saying something like bootloader mismatch, had the wrong bootloader etc.

so i downloaded the 4.2.2 factory image and flashed it in the "back to stock""flash stock/unroot" with the "softbrick/bootloop" button checked.

you must be in fastboot mood to do this and as long as you can get to fastboot mode you can fix it some way.

4.2.2 worked and then it OTAed it self to 4.4.4 [ i then flashed the 4.4.4 factory image just to make sure it was fixed [it was]]

the other thing i was going to try but never got to was a factory reset in stock recovery
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] directlyobservable:
Thanks, the thing is that wugfresh was not actually installed (I think) and I'm not sure how to get into fastboot at this point. Anyway if you (or anyone else) has advice on what I should do that would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norwoodesteel:
power off [keep holding power button till it goes off]

hold volume down button AND power button
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] directlyobservable:
I really appreciate the quick reply.

But wait, if the factory images aren't loaded you would still try to get into fastboot mode?

Also what would be my next step if holding down the buttons doesn't do anything?

Thanks again.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norwoodesteel:
fast boot mode is your only option keep trying
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] directlyobservable:
Thanks again, I've just tried 3x now and I'm still in the bootloop. On the dead android screen (and below the dead android) the following is listed:

FASTBOOT MODE

PRODUCT NAME-grouper

VARIANT- grouper

MW version- ER5

BOOTLOADER VERSION-4.23

BASEBAND VERSION- N/A

SERIAL NUMBER-#

SIGNING- not defined yet

LOCK STATE- UNLOCKED

It states it's in fastboot mode but when I input start or recovery mode "Booting failed" is the output. Is there something really dumb that I've missed or done? Any advice on what I should do is once again greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norwoodesteel:
maybe its in fast boot mode

Version 1.3.4 :

- Hi-Score saving is now reliable and will not reset.

- Current best score resets on app exit rather than level exit
[Android Apps and Games] annabelanwen:

It should work with any of them, but be careful to find one that supports A2DP and AVRCP out of the box. Doggles like from Jabra or I.Tech is probably the safest bet (I'm using the Jabra A320s with the I.Tech R35), instead of D-Link or some other non-BT audio vendor.

Hi, I've created some Custom Recovery flashable scripts for Moto G, that will remove around 100mb of pre-installed apps and services. Performance and battery-life should improve on your device with the reduced number of services running. I don't own a Moto E but the script should work as intended; I expect many of the same apps are present on your handset. All Motorola and Google apps can be reinstalled via Google Play Store.

[G3 Themes and Apps] Kickoff:
It is possible but too much work. We need the icons in the right resolution (192x192) and even you find it for the old HTC stuff they will be only xhdpi icons. Do you know where that icons are from? Source?

You can with the G3 TweaksBox xposed mod. You can change the colors of all the icons as far as I can tell. Haven't tried it myself though, I like how LG themed the G3 :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] TheNoogie:
So I have been using the burst mode option on the S5 camera quite regularly to get that perfect shot of lightning or to catch the waves crashing in on a lake, even to get some action shots of my kids. One of the great things about this feature I found was the ability to play them almost like an animated gif right from your gallery so when showing off some of my pictures I could play them for people.

After wiping and installing a new ROM, it seems the association between these pictures has been lost. The pictures are still there, but the "play" feature has been lost. If anybody out there has any experience with this and found a way to get the pictures to re-associate with each other so they can be played again and could provide me with their solution that would be awesome.

Thanks in advance, and I completely understand that wiping and installing a new ROM may have lost that "play" option forever with the older photos, but I'd like to at least try.

Custom ROM: XtreStoLite 1.3a G900T UVU1BNG3

Kernal: 3.4.100--KT-SGS5-KK4.4-TW-G900-08.04.2014--ktoonsez #2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
First you should make an effort to see if that "feature" is present in your new ROM. There is no reason to necessary expect it to be there. Make some new brackets (burst shot sequences) and see if they play he way you want. If they don't and there is nothing in the settings menu to toggle such an option, it would be reasonable to conclude that it isn't a feature in this ROM. In which case you will have to go without the feature, revert to your previous ROM or look for a third party app that may add that feature.

If the feature does work for new brackets, then look for an "import" feature in your gallery app. Failing that ensure that your old shots are in the same directory as the new brackets. If not, then move the old ones to your the new folder that the system uses and then do a media scan.

As a last resort, you can try going to the application manager in the settings menu and clear the cache and data for the gallery app. This will reset all settings and after the system rescans the media folders (after a reboot anyway), it may index all of your brackets.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] TheNoogie:
Thanks for the reply. The new ROM has burst mode, but the wipe seems to have killed to any connected indexing of old pics. Tried all your suggestions, nothing got me where I wanted to go.
