In Indonesia very difficult search accesories like your post. :(

[Xperia Z3 Accessories] ChristianBale:
Any news on US release dates for the cases?
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] ridearoundsolo:
I think after the 10th we will see more cases, wcr14 is already on amazon, but it is imported i believe which estimated delivery is at least 18 days, same for amazon.uk for us usa z3 owners. So it will be best to just wait a couple days for me to see if there is a usa launch of wcr14 that way ill just do 1 day shipping
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] ridearoundsolo:
Now theres a youtube video up for the wcr14, it looks nice but bulky and cover has no magnet for wake feature. Also the cover seems really loose so it might not be the best stand case but ill have to try it myself because the last reason was me assuming it might not be the best stand case.

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] bvoz412:
Hello! I have this phone and it had unlocked bootloader so i flashed custom recovery to install stock rom. But it didn't boot even after flashing zip from CM. So i decided to flash stock RUU. I managed to get cid from unbootable phone by using "getvar cid" so i downloaded RUU with proper cid. This RUU flashes fine until it comes to the end- and that is represented as error 152.

When i unplug the cable, phone shows that partition "USERDATA" failed, and when i reboot the phone, i have black screen with HTC shown, with 4 triangles at the corners.

I tried to unlock bootloader to flash recovery again, but it does nothing when i use unlocktoken obtained from HTCDev. I also tried using rom.zip from RUU to flash through fastboot, but it doesn't help.

is there any hope for this phone ? thanks in advance.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjred_uk:
Has anyone had any experience at filming stills or video, underwater with any of the z series xperia phones.

When I tried filming underwater with my z3, the touch screen didn't seem to like the water and kept exiting the camera app.

Is there a way of locking the screen or a setting I've missed to stop the screen being activated by the water?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
There is a small app called touch block that stops the water activating the touch screen.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjred_uk:
Ah OK thanks for that pal.

Sorry if I'm being stupid but I only seem to be able to turn the touch block on before taking a video or pic. So while it's activated I can't take a pic or video. Do I use the camera button on the side of the phone.?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electrash:
Yes. Use that button on side.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mDaniel:
Check the settings of the camera app - there is an option to lock the touchscreen.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdosti:
A very complicated way to use things. It's sad that in the process of making such an incredible phone they have missed out serious user elements. But then again, thats why they allow rooting.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bäcker:
It's a waterproof phone but it's not an underwater phone in the first place. Yeah, the process is cumbersome but at least it's there. I don't think this is meant to be used on a daily basis.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
Jesus some people will complain about anything!

The touchscreen doesn't work underwater so they created a touch-lock feature and provided a hardware shutter button. How are you still moaning? How often are you taking underwater photos and videos for this to be genuinely 'cumbersome'?

In any case a physical camera button is much better for taking photos generally anyway
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KurtHoyle:
It's a great feature but not sure I'll ever use it under water...

The only water I go in is my bath, and other then take photos of my sausage, I couldn't think of nothing else to photograph! :good:

Kindly share some pictures... :D
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3Shirts:
Yeah, I'll probably do a bit in a pool or whatever for fun, just because I can, but it's mostly useful to know I can use it out in the rain without worry.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
It might be quicker if you go to aftvnews and follow the guides.

Some tips--close the white spaces in the apks you push and I can't remember but I think the version of playstore is old and doesn't work, get the newest. Also it says get new markethelper but I believe the older one worked for me.

It'll all make sense during the process. Just pay close attention.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] RulinSmoove:
I just got a replacement 8125 in the mail. Before I send the other back one of the things I want to do is transfer all the Today Themes I have on my old 8125 to the new one.

The new 8125 did not come with a battery so I only have one, and hooking it up to the power cable does not supply enough power to boot past the first screen. My laptop does not have Bluetooth or IrDA (funny since its only 2 years old).

Does anybody know where these files are stored by default? Thanks.

Jimi
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] newbie2:
If I'm not mistaken, the default themes are stored in Windows as part of the ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] shogunmark:
the today themes are stored in the \Windows directory. They are TSK files. like example.tsk
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] akashastrega:
If the 8125 is anything like my MDA, the stock roms are in windows, but the themes I have either made or downloaded are in My Documents
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petercohen:
Hi, for the past two days, I have been having issue with occassional lack of response from the touch screen. Whenever I pressed the power button for a few seconds, I got a list of options: power off, data network mode, flight mode, restart. However, there was no respond when　I touched he screen. I just pressed the power button slightly, went somewhere, tried again and the device resumed to normal. what is happening? is there a way to fix this issue without rooting ?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
You are without a doubt the unluckiest user I've ever me. Is there anything on our device that does work?! :eek:

Mine does sometimes lose touch responsiveness. The pen still works, but touch does nothing. A reboot usually does the trick.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petercohen:
it was working nicely but suddenly I got maps has stopped, follwed by andoid system has stopped message. Then, on the past two days, lost touch screen response. Not sure if the following are related o my problems. 1. I use iBalls as protector of the corners for about a week. Yesterday, not two days ago, I joined the Japanese docom mobile phone services. They made some changes in the settings to allow me to use their 4g and wifi and phone networks. After that, I lost touch screen response more often than two days ago. Is doing a factory reset a good way to solve the problems? I recall that there were two firmware updates.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Well, if one of the corner balls touches the screen, that could kill the responsiveness.

As for the changes they made, those were probably the APN settings. They're required to use the internet and vary per provider. Pull out the SIM, see if that makes a difference.

A factory reset usually solves system errors.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petercohen:
I recall that they did some APN settings. They also set up the Mail connection. Before factory reset, is backing up using keis the best way? I don't kow if keis also backup whatever that have been causing the issues.

The balls just slightly touch the corners sometimes. Do you mean if by chance more than one ball touches a corner, this could confuse the system and cause a lack of respond? Sometimes even there were lots Of battery power, the system did not wake from sleep. It was like there were no power. I had to put the device away and waited for awhile before I could use the device again.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Any backup brings the risk of backing up the issue as well.

I recommend using Helium, back up only the app data you can't live without, do the rest manually and start with a clean device.

And yes, I did notice that if something is constantly pressing the screen, it gets confused sometimes. I had it happen with (you can laugh) my cat, she had her paw on the screen, messed the whole control up.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petercohen:
what kind of app data I can't live without? could you please give examples?
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
Well, what apps or games do you not want to lose the data of? Is there a game whose progress took you months to achieve, things like that.S Note and the like can all be synced through your Samsung account, by the way.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petercohen:
Thanks. Will Samsung's software also backup the mails from the mopera email account I got from my phone provider?

Not sure if this is related. I did not use the iBall protector yesterday and there was no problem with the touch screen's responsiveness.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
I don't know, I never use KIES.

Test it without the balls for a few more days, if the problem doesn't come back, you've found the culprit.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FreshlyBrewed:
I've had this happen to mine a couple of times, the hardware buttons still works (even the capacitative ones) but the screens refuses to do anything. The first time it happened was when a small droplet water landed on the screen, and the second time is still a mystery, but a restart solved the problem both times so I suspect it was something I did rather than any hardware issues... Having said that this hadn't happened on any other device I've owned.
