[Xperia Z3 Compact General] apolloms:
will be returning mine to clove. got it last night and emailed them this morning to start the return. mine has the faulty sd card flap that won't close completely. If they make me pay return shipping for a faulty device I'll be filing a dispute with paypal and my cc company for the initial charge because thats complete BS....so buyer beware when importing.......this could be all for not though since I haven't heard back from them.

I ordered from an Amazon storefront on Sunday afternoon - 9/28 (I'm on the East Coast) and the package was sent Fedex International Priority (I paid $18 for "Expedited Delivery) from Hong Kong. It arrived on Wednesday morning (yes - three days later) on my doorstep at 9:50 AM. It was declared as "Lithium Batteries In Compliance", and was passed through without anything further.

Awesome phone - and a step above my Z1 Compact.

Just got mine. D5803 Green from technotradinghouse (USA shop), took 3 days after ordering. Everything seems fine.

Gorgeous looking.

T-Mobile?

Has anyone here in the US tried connecting it to T-Mobile? I'm curious as to what speeds you're all getting (2G, 3G, H, H+, 4G, LTE, etc.).

Location: City, STATE

Wow, I thought the green was a carrier exclusive in the UK. Probably would have gotten it if I had known I could buy i for $500 from that place.

Oh well.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] wzlwomp:
how did this go?

I just got Z3C from Clove. Two observations:

1. it was not factory wrapped. Someone bubble wrapped the box. The Z3C box was missing part of the label (where it says 2G/3G/ the rest is ripped off)

2. the top of the sdcard flap is discolored.

Is this normal? Should I make a stink about it?

Phone seems OK.

As a gift, weird that it is not factory wrapped/unopened.

No issues with customs (DHL here).

Your thoughts appreciated.

Just got mine in from handtec UK. Phone is perfect and shipping was fast - arrived in 2 days.

Clove is very good ordered my z3 on Friday morning(early) got it today at 10am Alaska time. That's fast for us Alaskan btw
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] bilboa1:
im on TMO in SF, CA and everything works. Also got an edge signal, HSDPA+ signal and LTE signal.

Not DC but I dont think TMO supports DC. ATT does tho.

That said you could determine all this by looking at the freqs supported by the D5803 and TMO :) Anyway again.. it works. I get 50mbps+ with LTE in good areas of this crowded city.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] paperWastage:
t-mobile has DC-HSDPA (up to 42mbps) available. ATT doens't (only regular Hsdpa, up to 21mbps)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] bilboa1:
I did have DC on ATT... I switched over to TMO. Note that its likely related to the area.

The D5803 has:

HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

LTE 700/800/850/900/1700/1800/1900/2100/2600

TMO

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Mobile_US#Radio_frequency_spectrum_chart

So all freqs are supported. I never got DC in the SF area so far.

ATT

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT&T_Mobility#Radio_frequency_summary

So LTE 2300 is not supported and the wiki doesnt have DC listed for ATT. Still I did get DC from time to time. I suppose they might be testing. It's SF after all ;)

Regardless, both HSDPA and LTE worked on both networks

Did you find it came packaged by the factory? Sealed and in box and everything?

- Tim

---------- Post added at 06:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:11 PM ----------

Yes, has anyone else who ordered from Clove gotten one like this that didn't look like it had the fully original packaging on it? I just ordered one from Clove and am worried about this too.

- Tim
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] bilboa1:
No the box was not sealed. It was brand new tho with screen protector (the one you have to remove)

It could be that they removed the "1eur" noise cancelling headphones i dont know. but the box had been opened for sure. It didnt look used at all tho. Maybe they just double check everything's inside before sending over seas i dont know. mine's green so not actually from clove ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] cschmitt:
[MENTION=1501280]tbessie[/MENTION] I don't think any of the boxes are sealed with shrink wrap, mine from Handtec wasn't and others have mentioned the same.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] atman8r:
So now that noone has announced the compact for tmo, I'm wondering if I should just pull the trigger and buy from this techno trading house place. Anyone want to advise?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] tbessie:
Yeah, I googled a bit, and Clove's own people say they aren't sealed, and they say that's because Sony doesn't seal them at the factory, but that their retailers do (I guess the Sony Store people do that)...

Don't know the site you're talking about. I ordered from Handtec. I'm very happy with how they handled the order. When I emailed with a question (twice) the responded very quickly. I like that.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Issemann:
I think there are too many questions to pull the trigger just yet. I prefer to hold the phone in my hand, compare the screen and speakers to my m7 and judge for myself. Not willing to pay 15% restocking fee just to hold it in my hands. :rolleyes:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dmxinc:
Here is a good one.....I am rooted on i317 using DS V2......At home I push the hotspot icon and my tablet hooks right up. The weird: At work same two machines, the wifi connection between the two disconnects every second, it's like blinking wifi...."obtaining IP, connected, disconnected.....Obtaining IP, connected, disconnected.....It will do this for 15 minutes then just gives up.....no internet access. (I have also tried FOXfi and PDAnet with the same result......

Some background: At my work, we use Meraki wifi APs. They have been programmed to block Android operating systems because our company has a contract with Apple to use Ipads. The Meraki APs are running G, N, and AC bands with six different access logons. Three are for network admins, two are for employees, and one is for guests......Could the Meraki APs be disrupting the connection between my tablet and my phone? I get good 4gLTE service 4 bars, 12 mbps download speeds.

Any ideas? Anyone? I couldn't find any articles about disrupting other hotspots.....I Googled every question about the Merakis, I don't know their model# because they are installed way up in the ceiling.....every 75feet or so....

[Xperia Play Android Development] twistedumbrella:
Now that framework modifications are no longer working in newer Android versions, a lot of the research I have over the past few months may be of use in maintaining touchpad support.

The Sony example apps use NativeActivity and the event ID from the native side separates the event (since touchscreen events use the same handler). The trick for an app dev getting it to work was just a matter of returning a false motion event to Java and handling the input natively with a second interface set up for touchpad events. This did not change in later versions of Android. The only real change was the key layouts. In later versions of Android, they added a separate key layout for the gamepad instead of appending the default one. That is why the circle button is no longer alt + back. Instead, you have to check the device name for zeus-gamepad and then handle it as the standard back KeyCode.

You can see the code to handle touchpads in a standalone library I put together to add to reicast. This library is built independent of the emulator and allows handling the touchpads through a secondary NativeActivity that has the methods OnNativeMotion and OnNativeKeyPress handling input identified as coming from an Xperia Play.

https://github.com/reicast/reicast-emulator/blob/master/shell/android/jni/src/XperiaPlay.c

The touchpads no longer dispatch a TouchEvent because a TouchEvent was the catch all for touchscreen, touchpad, mouse interaction. When GenericMotionEvent was added, it allowed better classification of touch and move without all the extra checks and conditions.

Trying to find a workaround from the user end instead of getting the developers to use the proper code is why older apps end up broken in newer versions of Android. A lot of the developers have since moved on to other things and left the app with the hack code. Now that it is no longer possible, it may be too late to get an update with the code that works.

GameKeyboard uses the touchpad support methods and acts as a middleman to convert the interaction into something the app can handle using standard methods. A system modification would be something like that merged with something like tasker to detect when the gamepad was opened. Until that modification exists, GameKeyboard and Tasker are a fully-functional alternative.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locnet.gamekeyboard2&hl=en

Here is the full source on the various supported ways to handle the touchpads in Android:

https://github.com/AbandonedCart/XperiaPlayNative

And for Unity developers, here is an extension to support touchpads from within a game:

And here is a demonstration of an Android app with touchpad support from within Unity:

hi,thank you for starting this thread, it's nice to se that someone is still interested in the xplay, it's still perfect for my use. i do heavy retrogaming with retroarch, plus all the new game, the walking dead,gta sa nova modern combat ecc. i'm on super jelly bean 8 with lupus 13, oc to1.4ghz for gaming with the touchpad fix,and touch pads lag as hell and make any game unplayable..

unfortunately i'm not a developer, but i will be testing of corse if you need..
[Xperia Play Android Development] twistedumbrella:
This isn't really one of the threads where there will be a build or mod to download and then post error reports about. This is one of those threads (like xda used to be flooded with) meant to show people how to do things so they can add them to something or gather all the parts and build something else. It's source, instructions, and good ol' fashioned information. It's a little late, but it's all the stuff that should have been here when the games were being developed to prevent the support situation currently being faced.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deivore:
My Nexus 5 is stuck in a bootloop. Each time through the loop, it gets to the Google logo, and then reboots. Each loop takes about 3-4 seconds. If I hold the correct keys to get to the bootloader, it still keeps looping, just looping to the bootloader screen, not the Google logo screen. I have tried letting go of the keys after different lengths of time, and I can never get it to stay at the bootloader, it just keeps looping.

And so, I cannot access recovery.

I should not that this is the phone's behavior while it is plugged in. If it is unplugged, it immediately ceases the bootloop and just goes completely dead, unresponsive.

Any ideas, guys?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BirchBarlow:
If you can access the bootloader it's fixable. Flash the factory image.

i feel this usually happens on the weekend lol

are u on any ROM ... im on PA dunno if thats what causing this ?!

it may be the power button since that makes sense .. but i managed to turn my phone on past 3 weekends .. so it could be a software problem as well ??

Software can't stop your phone from turning on If pulling out the power button allows it to boot.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] The Stig 04:
I recently just noticed this at the top of a picture. What is it for? What does it do? I thought maybe it was to mirror on Chromecast but it didn't seem to find it when I clicked on it.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] S1L3nTShaDoWz:
I clicked it myself and it would appear to be some sort of sync/bluetooth method of transferring photos to your computer??

Not really sure though, thats just what it looks like based off of a first look.

Edit: it actually sort of does look like its for mirroring stuff to your computer
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BadUsername:
It is mirroring. It's for sharing your photos on a home network. If your computer and phone are both hooked up to a home network it'll allow you to show a picture or a video. It would not work for chromecast.

[Paranoid Android Q&A] elsiechan:
hi everyone - recently flashed paranoid android with franco kernel but noticed a few buggy things:

- keyboard typing timeouts on whatsapp, chrome, keep etc (not horrible but at least 4 times/day overall)

- data/wifi timeouts every once in awhile

I didn't have these issues with stock nor slimkat which I was running before PA. any suggestions?

I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling apps and am now contemplating just switching over to another rom as I noticed that before I got franco kernel, battery life really went down the drain with PA and stock kernel. Maybe it's just me though since everyone keeps raving about it.

I'm new to this so pls go easy on me with terminology!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frost_biten:
Okay, so I'm pretty conflicted/concerned. So I guess I should explain how I ****ed this up. Well, I was pretty tempted to flash PA Beta 4.6, it really looked good to me. But having not flashed on my Nexus 5, I didn't have a custom recovery, so I installed flashify and TWRP and set it up. Went well. Then I downloaded PA Beta 4.6 and also flashed it, took a bit, but I got it to work. All is good right? Well, I was confused at the lack of Google Apps (Play Store, Youtube, G+, you know). So I went into the recovery and wiped my data and tried to flash again. Only problem is, I accidently also erased the download for PA Beta 4.6. So, I get home (I was doing this all at school) and try to flash the factory images for 4.4.4 Hammerhead. But I cant seem to get it to work. When ever I use fastboot and flash the images, I end up with either 1. Non stop Google screen when I boot up, or 2. A picture of an Android with his front hatch opened and a red triangle with an exclaimation mark. What do I need to do? Please help!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
The android on his back is the stock recovery. Just hit vol up and do a factory reset. That'll fix your problem of booting

if TWRP is still working I would use ADB or FASTBOOT to push the PA Beta 4.6 ROM or another rom to your phone and then use TWRP to install it... sounds like you just wiped your SD card so move the ROM you want back to the phone and try try again.... GOOD luck hope everything turns out!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzmtl:
I'm wondering, does it make any significant difference in power consumption if I leave wifi on when I leave home, vs if I turn it off? I would be using mobile data outside, but wifi would still be scanning for networks which I won't use.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Yes it does, as you would have found out by either doing a search of existing threads or by empirical experiment. Wifi power consumption can vary widely depending on the transmit level necessary to establish a connection with the access point. Power usage can be heavy if your wifi is constantly scanning and transmitting at full power.

.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:
Even if you turn off wifi, you may also want to disable the 'Always allow scanning' option (in the WiFi -> Advanced menu). Otherwise Google location service may turn it on to scan for the network.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jzmtl:
Search for wifi power consumption had no result in this subforum.

The question is if it'll be significant enough to notice in daily use, which I take you don't actually know?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Your search skills could use improvement. If one has the judgement not to confine their search to only one subforum, not to mention trying several sets of search keywords, a thirty second search returns numerous relevant results.

If I have to use ODIN what are the steps?

Thanks.

{I voiced my opinion with my wallet and bought a developer phone, come on AOSP love.... Soon i hope}
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpcalhoun:
The NE9 modem files that I have seen (present and past modem files) cannot be flashed via a custom recovery, they must be installed using ODIN.

Put you phone in download mode (volume down + power)(make sure you have Samsung drivers installed on PC), start ODIN on PC, connect phone to PC, wait for ODIN to recognize phone, select the modem tar file that is located on your PC, use PDA and press start. Wait until you get a GREEN PASS before disconnecting your phone. Reboot.
