[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferio678:
thanks for the info and link im just trying to get the charge port repaired as anything i try always write fails which i think is down to the port being damaged as it wont charge either but will pick up on computer so will try this after i have had it repaired many thanks tho
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darke5tShad0w:
Oh I missed that bit. If the port gets fixed try a standard stock rom first. The one I gave you is for emergency's only.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferio678:
ah well thank you i will get the port fixed and try the standard first just so many scary reviews online about partitions missing and about product name not being there
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darke5tShad0w:
Thats in very rare cases. 90% of the time flashing a standard stock rom will solve issues.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ferio678:
well thank you for all your advice i shall update this thread later today after the port has been replaced and let you know if i have problems

or if i get the phone working again

Hello!

As some of you knows it already the Z2 speakers are low out of the box and even only one speaker works when the phone ring.

Do you think the Z3 will be louder with tweaks as Phonearena review is saying it's not loud enough?

Btw does the new UI has a car app?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
Hiya

Just got mine last night. The bottom speaker is the only speaker that plays when the phone rings, although it is quite loud. Texts seem quiet though. This would be better through both speakers though for sure.

Can't see a Car app on UK unlocked model.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
Different with my Z3 (bought via Vodafone Germany): BOTH speakers are used for incoming call sounds; pretty decent volume.

Didn't notice a "car app"; there's Garmin navigation preinstalled - but the usual "try and NOT buy" kind. So just regard it as nonexistent, simply stick with Google Maps. And yes, Sony generously allows deinstalling Garmin navigation.

Speakers in general: Nice and clear sound, quite deep stereo effect, but a bit thin, could be louder, about the same volume as Samsung's S4.

Playing around with preamp settings does NOT help, just leads to distortions.

HORRIBLE volume via 3,5 mm connector - AS USAL, volume is FAR TOO LOW for powering anything else than that infamous earwax pullers (in-ear headphones).

For something positive: The sound via headphones connector is real fine, you won't be disappointed if it comes to audio fidelity.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tft:
this is probably done on purpose by design. sony probably figures if they enabled both speakers or made them louder it would be pretty rude when in public places.. something would agree with.. nothing more annoying than to be at a public place and hearing phones ringing at full volume . IMO these devices are already ring loud enough.. i keep mine at middle volume and is plenty loud. i think people that require louder should invest in hearing aids or perhaps clean their ears :laugh:
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
Can't say limiting the ability of the phone to ring through both speakers is a design feature.

I'm going to keep looking to see if anyone sorts the sound coming out of one speaker as this is the culprit I think.

Edit: I actually think having both speakers playing would allow them to reduce the volume in both, allowing for less distortion and a nice sounding ringtone.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shook187:
Im currently test driving the IPhone 6...yes don't bash me this is my first iPhone...I'll like to know if the speaker output on the Z3 is as loud as the iPhone 6?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paullu:
I just own z3 I can tell speaker very low.I owned z1 z2 before. same kind **** Sony don't improve anything
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PuffDaddy_d:
The iPhone 6 speaker is louder, but since it's always facing the wrong direction, the louder speaker doesn't always translate to more sound reaching your ears. Your hand often covers the speaker as you hold it as well.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
It's plenty loud, maybe not as good as HTC M8 levels in terms of clarity at full volume but pretty close.

Speaker tests from GSMArena. Look for stats in a table in the middle of the page in each link.

[HTC One S] scoob65:
i have the One S rooted with PAC ROM 4.4.4 and h boot 2.13, S-ON. I'm having quite a few random reboots, FC's and other bugs and was thinking of going to another ROM but i wonder, is hboot 2.13 problematic in any way? is it easy to upgrade hboot? Does 2.13 limit my choice of ROM? I have not seen many on here with hboot 2.13.

I'm with T/Mobile UK
[HTC One S] Steve-Oo:
Also on hboot 2.13 and wondering the same thing. I'm on Cyanogenmod 10.2 and experience infrequent random reboots.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] kevin.jiang:
Hi all, for the last few months I have tried various Universal ROMs and even various WM5 phones including HTC and HP iPAQ, there are some commond issues which I haven't been able to figure out a permanent solution (work arounds are available though not ideal), these are:

- SIP (System Input Panel), if you install any additional SIP like SPB fullscreen keyboard, Monster SIP etc, every time after you soft reset the device, unless you load them up straight away, you will not be able to load them up after a few minutes (don't know exactly how long) until next reset!! This is a great pain, I have found a SIP changer program which automatically load a SIP after soft reset, but I will really love a permanent solution.

- Bluetooth problem with Tomtom 6 (TT6). With lots of AKU versions of WM5 (apart from Helmi AKU 3.3 I tried so far, haven't tried it with Helmi AKU 3.5 though so I can't be sure with that version) every time I start up TT 6 it asks me to enter the passcode to pair my BT GPS receiver again even though I have done it 100 times already!! Again I have seen this issue on other WM5 devices in addition to Universal so I am wondering if any one has a solution.

Thanks!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] StevePritchard:
I've never seen this problem on either my Universal, or my friend's Wizard (which I set up for them).

I don't know if this is the "standard" way, but basically, I pair the GPS device (a BT-77 in our cases), and then setup an outgoing COM port to it, and then simply tell TomTom to attach to that COM port. In fact, I have two BT-77s, one set to COM0 in the car, and a hand-held one on COM4, and I can switch to my heart's content, and have never been asked to re-pair.

Cheers,

Steve.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] vuquan:
I know many SIP can not be able load out. Did you solve this? or how to load them with permanent solution?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] shlomki:
i've installed a hebrew sip but i dont have a problem loading it anytime i want.

although, sometimes i have a problem composing a new text message. the device gets stuck sometimes if the keyboard it not opened when i click "new".

happends only with helmi's 3.5 and with the hebrew keyboard. doesn't happen with default SIPs.

whats te program you found to load the all the SIPs?

is it "SIPz"? (from the same maker of PQz).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] 421905633783:
I have the same problem with blue thooth and CoPilot I use. The software is iGo. I tried several roms, but after I switch off the GPS and switch it on, it always wants to pair with Uni again.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] kevin.jiang:
Thanks for the suggestion Steve, I have indeed paired the BT GPS receiver, created the outgoing port as COM4 (actually I also tried other available ones) and point TT6 to it. I have been using this BT GPS receiver for over 2 years with various devices including my good old HP iPAQ H4150. This problem didn't happen with my Universal's original Orange SPV M5000 ROM and it doesn't happen with Helmi's AKU 3.3/3.5 ROM either which is the main reason why I am using AKU 3.3 now.

I have this problem on JWright's i-mate AKU 3.2 ROM, my wife's HP iPAQ rw6828 (WM5 AKU 2.3), my friend's T-Mobile MDA Vario II (HTC Hermes, WM5 AKU 2.3).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] kevin.jiang:
No good solution and I am wondering if anybody else knows how to solve it. I have tried hacking the registry to make my additional SIP default and I ended up with my universal not being to boot until a hard reset. The work around is this SIPChange attached, basically you set which one you want as default, then every time you soft reset it loads that SIP automatically before it becomes impossible to load it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] StevePritchard:
I've not had the problem with either of the O2 ROMs, and Ivan's AKU3.5 test ROM - I haven't tried any other ROMs. I unticked the "secure connection" - not sure if that's relevant or not.

I found that only COM0 and COM4 seemed to be available for outgoing ports.

Before you go into TT6 - is the GPS device in the device list, along with the outgoing port set up correctly? Do you switch BlueTooth on and off? I have it on all the time - I'm just trying to think of things that might be different in our configs.

Cheers,

Steve.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mikeycrawford:
I have both TT6 and iGO 2006 on my XDA Exec. The TT6 (and TT5 before that) always worked well with the BT-77 by simply pairing the GPS to the XDA EXEC on a COM port and selecting that COM port in TT6.

With iGO 2006, on the same XDA EXEC, it will ask to pair the BT-77 every time I launch iGO 2006. The only solution I could find was to use Franson's GPSGate to create Virtual COM ports for the BT-77 and to select this virtual COM port in iGO 2006.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] kevin.jiang:
Thanks for the advise, I have tried unticking "secure connection" as well and it didn't help.

From what I am gathering in the information supplied it looks to be caused by a combination of the BT GPS receiver, the WM5 and the Sat Nav software.

I can't remember what make and model my BT GPS receiver is because I bought it over 2 years ago and back then I didn't care what model it is. Now that I can't tell it from looking at the outside of this thing.

This is a wierd problem as with different combination of the GPS reciver, WM5 and software it may or may not happen. What I was having that problem using Tomtom 6 I tried the GPSInfo shareware and it didn't ask me to pair every time. Very strange, anyway I am alright now with Helmi's AKU 3.3 using COM5 as the port with my good old BT GPS receiver and TT6.

[Moto X Q&A] twpwb42fso0n:
All,

I was trying to change my logo to not show the unlocked bootloader message and i keep getting the following messages:

Variable not Supported!

target max-download-size: 768MB

error: cannot load 'logo.bin': No error

Then looking at the all the variables using "fastboot getvar all" I see that my my unlocked and iswarrantyvoid variables are Yes, and my secure variable is Yes!?!?!

To me it seems that my bootloader is not fully unsecure. I do have TWRP so I am a bit confused, and well I dont do this stuff often enough to know what might be wrong.

Thanks Jeredish

Is your phone fully charged?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
The problem is that you don't have logo.bin in the same folder that you are RUNNING fastboot from. You may have it in the same folder as fastboot, but you must also run the command FROM that folder as well.

For instance:

If your command prompt shows: C:\Users\Yourname\

but logo.bin is in C:\MyDownloads\logo.bin

Then you need to RUN THE FASTBOOT COMMAND **from** C:\MyDownloads\

It is best to put the logo.bin in the same folder as fastboot, AND run the command FROM that folder.

That also explains why "fastboot getvar all" works. "error can not load....XXX" means that fastboot can not FIND the file trying to be flashed.

Good Luck.
[Moto X Q&A] twpwb42fso0n:
Oh gosh I am a complete idiot....

So I am working in the windows environment and I set the path variable with where my fastboot.exe is located to make the cmd line stuff more convenient, but when I referred to the logo file I thought it simply needed to be in the same location as the fastboot.exe and of course my cmd was not set to that path.

Thanks for the quick reply.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] insang-droid:
After my wife telling me she can't hear me on my hangouts video call, I did some testing with this. QoS stands for quality of service and its how network controls packet flow depending on what type of data it is. Voice data has high priority and without QoS your VoIP won't work.

. Well after testing few calls in slow hotel network. I can confirm that you need this on if you do any video chat or VoIP through hangouts.

Doesn't really affect if there is no bottle necked connection but you get complaints of voice not coming through and you have this frozen. Turn it back on.

[Moto X Q&A] Jersey846:
I changed both. The animation works fine when I flash them through twrp, but the logo (where it used to give the bootloader unlocked warning) is a cyan colored screen with a white box where the logo should have replaced it. I tried to flash it through fastboot and mfastboot both of which were unsuccessful. Not sure what I've done but as you can imagine it's pretty ugly. I can take a picture of it if necessary.
