I navigate to the forum (not a subforum) I want to "subscribe to" or "add as a favorite" (whatever it is called) but I cannot find anywhere on the main page of the forum (i.e., the page that typically lists XYZ DEVICE General, XYZ DEVICE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting, XYZ DEVICE General Development, etc.) where I can subscribeto that forum (or add as a favorite).

I notice that if you go to one of the above-referenced subforums that you have the option there to subscribe to it. But I want quick access to all of the subforums for one device, which is why that seems like a forum to me, not a subforum.

Also, in the premium mobile app, it has the sidebar which usually says "subscriptions" followed by a number. When selecting this, you are given a list of forums (and/or subforums) that you can quickly navigate to. This is what I am looking for. I have "subscribed" to them from the mobile app, but they are not showing up once I am at my laptop... it only shows on the right under "MESSAGES THREADS FORUMS" that I am subscribed to one subforum I subscribed to 3 years ago.

With the number of forums for devices growing to several hundred why is there not just a way to create a bookmark to go directly to the forum that you have already added as a subscribed forum/a favorite??? I swear I think every time I have come to this webpage I have to navigate down past 90 devices to find the forum I want (or I google XDA XYZ Device....which is a nice workaround).

There should be a way to bookmark a forum. I say "bookmark" because subscribing to a forum is actually confusing. You already have an option to subscribe to a thread and with that subscription, you can opt to receive email updates when there have been new comments to the thread. However, for a forum this is not practicable nor logical. I just need a way to jump to a forum quickly. :(

It seems like an easy breakdown:

Forum

(example HTC ONE (or VERIZON HTC ONE if it exists)) ==>

Subforum

(example: HTC ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting) ==>

Thread

(example: Help! I bricked my phone!!!).

Thread subscriptions don't have breadcrumbs in their title, but if you are going to subscribe to a thread, you probably will know what subforum and forum it is in based on its specificity.

Hi,

I bought the bigben stg one tablet controller.

Sadly the controller has some mapping problems in HID Mode.

First the mapping is wrong not like on a xbox 360 controller.

Left is B

Up is A

Down X

Right doesn't work at all. Some input debugging tool says "keycode 98 button_c"

Is there any way to remap these buttons ? Dumpsys says the controller use the generic keylayout.

Second problem the l2 and r2 trigger also doesn't work.

The debug tool says the buttons trigger axis 14 axis_rz from -1 to 1

And there is a little bigger deadzone for example in limelight app. Local games like dead trigger doesnt have this deadzone problem.

Does someone have any idear how to fix this?

Thx & greetings

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KDZCrew:
Hi all !

First sorry for my poor english, this isn't my mother language.

Unfortunately, I accidentaly flash a recovery.img in the boot partition instead of recovery partition and now my phone doesn't boot anymore. It vibrate once but the screen keep black.

I can get into fastboot mode and adb recognize my phone.

So is it possible to simply flash a boot.img to get it working ? Where can I found this boot.img ?

It's a D5503, rooted but no custom recovery yet. (I was on it)

The recovery I was trying to flash was Z1c_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-114_v01.img from http://doomlord.xperia-files.com/files/Z1c_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_FW-114_v01.img

I used EasyRootTool v12.2.zip to root my device.

Any help will be appreciated and I thank you in advance :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
The process you did was correct. On Xperia phones there is no recovery partition, you flash a custom kernel on boot partition with recovery built in. Probably your bootloader is locked. In that case the phone does not allow custom kernels and therefore does not boot. Can you get into flashmode (not fastboot)?

Edit: To clarify for other readers; there is indeed a way to use recovery without using a custom kernel. See for example dualrecovery by [NUT]

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KDZCrew:
zxz0O0 : yes but the LED doesn't stay green. So I don't know if the flash mode works great..

Rekoil : done ;)

EDIT:

Ok so I unlocked my bootloader with the sony tool and now my phone almost boot :) Almost because in fact it vibrates once and I can see the sony logo but then the screen turn off and it boots again (bootloop).

Besides that, I have access to my custom Recovery (CWM).

So now, how can I get rid of the bootloop after unlocking the bootloader ? Thank's :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
Why did you unlock bootloader? Did you take a TA backup?

The LED never stays green in flashmode so not sure what you are expecting. To solve bootloop, try flashing stock firmware again. Maybe you have to wipe data.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KDZCrew:
Hi

I unlock the bootloader because you said - and I understood so - that it was the problem. No, I didn't make a TA bkp. :(

Ok for the flashmode, I thought that it was like the fastboot mode, where the LED stays blue. I'll try flashing the stock firmware. Thank's for your help. I'll let you know if it worked.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
Not making a TA backup isn't really that big of a deal, it disables some features sure, but I doubt you'll actually notice them much. Now, were you running a 4.3 or 4.4-based firmware prior to flashing the boot.img? Because the boot.img contained a 4.3 kernel which will not boot 4.4 so I'm leaning towards you having a 4.4-based fw installed.

Since you can get to recovery, flash one of these in recovery, if you don't know which base your system is then try them one at a time, recovery will still function if the OS does not boot.

.108-base (latest base, 4.4.4)

.757-base (4.4.2 iirc)

Note that by unlocking bootloader you've also wiped your /data and /data/media (internal storage) partitions.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KDZCrew:
Hello,

So I was on a 4.4.4 firmware and i have flashed the 108-base and it worked. Big thank's to you two. ;)

By unlocking the bootloader i lost my data but it is not a big deal because my pictures are on G+ and the rest i don't care much about.

Again, big thank's zxz0O0 and rekoil :D

I had to use my girlfriends IMEI for her Nexus 5 for it to pick up LTE. Before that, I was only getting H+. Try to get an IMEI of another ATT LTE Android phone and it should do the trick!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktcred:
Can't get LTE to work

I need some help. I have the new, unlocked, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact and I can't get on the AT&T LTE network as well. Here are the steps I have taken:

The Setup

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 that is on the LTE network with no problem

My AT&T account had a Lumia 820 device tied to my account (and old device of mine) and it worked fine for LTE on all of my future pones, including my S4

I purchased an unlocked D5803 Z3c from Handtec

My Activate Attempt

Went to the AT&T store to pick up a new nano sim card

I gave my new (Sony) IMEI number to the AT&T rep (stupid move, clearly) and they loaded it under my account

With the new sim, my Z3c could place calls and send/receive text messages

Data would not work

My Resolution Steps

I looked up APN settings online and tried several different variations

The HSPA+ Cingular APN settings worked, but left me without LTE service

I could not get the mobile.att.net APN and LTE settings to work

Reading Android Central and XDA, I discovered that others had this issue as well

Using forum advice, I called AT&T

The AT&T rep did confirm that my Sony IMEI number was registering as a "2G" phone, which is why I did not get LTE access

I put one of my extra LTE device IMEI numbers on my account

My phone still won't connect to the LTE network

I notice that even though they registered an LTE phone (and they confirmed it came up LTE), my AT&T account page shows an old flip phone silhouette

The rep noted that there was nothing else they can do...so I basically have to deal with it

I'm posting on XDA to leverage the wisdom of this crowd

I remain confident that this will get resolved, yet frustrated at the same time

I'm at a loss and wonder if I have to activate this nano sim in another supporting device or the like. Thoughts?

Thanks in advance for your help.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolstebbo:
No clue, but AT&T tech support confirmed that my IMEI is registered and my previous two devices were all LTE devices. I have no idea what's going on either.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktcred:
Are you having the same issue? Do you see the cartoon sketch of a flip phone in your account as well?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phositadc:
What you have to do is give them the imei of an LTE capable phone. It absolutely does not matter that you will not actually be using that phone.

If you already have an LTE phone, just switch your SIM to your z3 when it arrives. It is absolutely unnecessary to call AT&T with your new IMEI. Anything AT&T tells you to the contrary is flat out wrong.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktcred:
Issue resolved!

Bottom line...do not give these clowns your Xperia IMEI number.

When they entered the IMEI number it flipped my data plan from a grandfathered unlimited plan to a pay-per-use plan with no LTE (why they couldn't figures this out last night, it beats me). He was talking about my wife's plan and her unlimited data. I then noted "mine is unlimited too" and then said it wasn't. You can only imagine how things went from there.

The unrecognized IMEI number automatically switched me off of my plan.

They have me on a temporary 3GB plan, as the support rep couldn't get me back on the unlimited plan. They have to send the change to their back office team and it will take a week to get it back.

My phone now has the 4G icon versus H+.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolstebbo:
Nope, it actually still shows my previous LTE-capable phone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xShin:
I actually also initially had this issue ; I was sitting in the AT&T &T store on the phone with tech support until the sales rep realized my phone wasn't showing up in the system as an LTE device. He input a bogus LTE IMEI for me, after which I restarted my phone. It's been working for me since then :D
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolstebbo:
Whelp, I guess I'll go to the AT&T store again later, then.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macklobell:
So everything that is claiming to have LTE ----> Do you have a 4G icon on your phone or LTE? I am in US, went to ATT store ---they entered an imei of a Samsung Galaxy S5 and now it shows 4G. If you go into mobile networks preferred network mode it says 4G preferred/wcdma/gsm. I am assuming this is just due to the UK software version not being the same as US...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktcred:
Says 4G. I think we are good
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolstebbo:
IMEI problem rectified, they reverted it to my previous phone's IMEI. Now displaying 4G. Sweeeeeetness.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cschmitt:
It's just silly that AT&Ts LTE is tied to the IMEI in their system and not simply having an LTE capable phone.

I ported a line to use with my Z3c and gave them the IMEI of an AT&T HTC One so that LTE would work, but they would only send me a micro sim because according to the IMEI that's the sim I need. Tried to tell them I need a nano sim but the gal on the phone said she couldn't send one, I'd have to go to a store pick one up.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waldo98:
If you are going from an LTE phone that uses a nano SIM card to the Sony Xperia Z3 compact, it is not necessary to contact AT&T. You will need to manually add the APN settings on your Sony Xperia Z3 compact. Here is the path to get to the APN settings..

Settings > More > Mobile networks > Access Point Names > press + to add a new APN

Enter in the following settings listed below

Name	ATT Phone

APN	phone

Proxy	Not set

Port	Not set

Username	Not set

Password	Not set

Server	Not set

MMSC	http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

MMS proxy	proxy.mobile.att.net

MMS port	80

MCC	310

MNC	410

Authentication Type	None

APN type	default,mms,supl,hipri

APN protocol	IPv4

Bearer	Unspecified

Save the changes you made, select the APN you just created and reboot the phone. Everything should be working from there.

Here is where I got the information from: http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB424489&cv=820&_requestid=838329#fbid=ecLfo9YLvXa
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex2x3:
So I do have the 4g icon in my status bar. Does this mean that LTE is working fine?

The only reason I am asking is because on the MY ATT page I do only see the silhouette of a flip phone.

Edit: My phone automatically downloaded internet and MMS settings when I first booted it up. Is this what others are doing?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waldo98:
Yes, you are getting LTE on your phone

LTE = 4G in Europe

4G = H+ in Europe

3G

etc

If you do a speed test, you will see that you are getting LTE speeds on your phone

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baaldfg:
Hi there,

As I live at the border of Switzerland and France and move around in both, I have the problem that the phone is not very smart in choosing the right network operator. So I often end up in roaming evening though the home network is available and it is maybe just a little bit weaker than the foreign one. Is there a way to make Android choose it's network operator more smartly to avoid roaming? Best would be with rules such as: as long as the home network is available, take it and don't switch to the stronger one. Roaming just as the last resort.

I could not find any app which does something like this.

Please help.

Best wishes, Christian

Ok, but how to disable roaming? As far as I know, there is only the data roaming switch in android. And with data roaming off, the phone will still connect to the wrong network.

So now I have an Int'l m8 - supercid - changed mid - viper w/ latest elemental-x kernel. It did come with a hard or soft brick warning. I have no doubt that the firewater script had been updated since I achieved this. Also depends on variant, baseband & a few other thingys. So have a search for this method to see if it is still current. Alternatively there is the Sunshine method.

with 190mb device memory :( 2nd partition 250mb

i bought the link2sd plus a while ago because i though by using it and the 2nd partitioning i can transfer my app's and its data fully to the sd as said in every where ,i think, so i tried it

1- i opened it and selected my app

2- clicked create symbolic link

3- selected everything (including data ) its plus

4-waited till it finished loading

the i decided to see my app (facebook) it is still in the internal

and it even got bigger

so it is normal and then i have done the same with every other app

the all got bigger and i now get the insufficient memory message

and i can't even download app's from google play

so what to do

am i using it wrong

or did i waste my money
[General Questions and Answers] lietsen:
I think the way you use link2sd are correct. For the problem you mention, maybe you can check how much the apps use the storage space by check it one by one from "Storage Info" in link2sd options, with this you also can check if your apps moved or not to 2nd partition, even only number. For example, first you install facebook, and then open link2sd. Don't link facebook apps with link2sd yey, but open "Storage Info" from link2sd menu. Remember the "Internal" and "SD Card 2nd Part" free space. And then, link facebook app. After the process done, open again "Storage Info". If you see increasing "Internal" free space and "SD Card 2nd Part" free space decreasing, then you're not wrong using link2sd. Your app moved to 2nd partition.
