something must be wrong with my xperia play! im about to chuck it out the window!!:mad::mad:

everything worked BUT ONLY FOR 5-10 SECONDS if i hit start and quickly go to test i can move the touchpads around but after a couple of seconds it just dies! then it will no longer move or sometimes if i hit start it will work for a wile but if i let go of the touchpad and try again it dies!
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattnmag:
That's strange. I'm using a Verizon R800x that's running rooted stock 2.3.4 GB with stock kernel. If you're using a different kernel/ROM combination, then I wonder if that might be playing a role. Do the touchpads work fine on other games?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDM inc:
yeah and everything else the touchpads works 100% like this supposed to be they don't turn on and off but only when I'm using this gamekeyboard it turns off after 5 seconds or after I let it go this I don't understand I'm also using an r800x

But with a custom rom and kernel

Android 2.3.4

Lupus kernel

http://youtu.be/39mIy1ZoD7g?list=UUqRBiq8IrN7xdJLdtHo209g There's this brazilian tutorial video, well I don't get anything he says but the game keyboard he uses is in english, so just do what he does and will work just fine, is working for me so far
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattnmag:
That looks like a good tutorial and that guy really looks like he knows what he's doing. The Gamekeyboard app in the tutorial is for the older 4.0.0 version, but I would think that the things he does in the video should work with the newer version too.

[MENTION=3767022]xdarkmario[/MENTION], ... If you tell me exactly what rom /kernel setup you're running, then I'll flash those onto my R800x and see if I get the same "5 second" issue that you're experiencing. That would at least help to rule out if it's something wrong with your phone or if it's something else like the kernel/ROM combo.

Cool. Thanks for the video. It's definitely strange. What version of Gamekeyboard are you using? I'm using this one.... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locnet.gamekeyboard2

I've got Dixperia flashed with Lupus. I've never tried it before and I'm really impressed with the ROM so far with the little that I've played with it. My WiFi connected with no problems too with lupus and the rom seems really smooth.

I will try to install ppsspp and test out the Gamekeyboard touchpads tomorrow. I need to get into bed now so I can get up for work in the morning. :)

Hi xdarkmario,

I tested Gamekeyboard touchpads tonight on DiXperia Enormous with lupus kernel... and they seemed to work fine for me.

I made a rough Gamekeyboard profile for you to try for Gods Eater Burst... you can grab it from this link, gkp profile. After you download it to your SD card, then import/save/and load the profile. Then if you follow the setup steps I used in my previous post, I'm hoping it will work for you. :)

Ok... so I tried to play Bladeslinger with Gamekeyboard... and now my touchpads aren't working. lol. So I'll play with it some more to see if I can figure out what's triggering this to happen. Will have to wait until this weekend when I get a little more time. :)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
I'm not using game keyboard, but maybe rom have heavy memory menagment and it's killing background apps after 5 seconds.

Try deleting init.d scripts and see if it's working
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDM inc:
I tried to temporarily move the init.d but it made no difference.

Sent from my SPH-L710
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Maybe tweaks in build.prop? As I see, from zip file of ROM, there are some.

Logcat could be useful too...

When you set transparency more then 0% (visible) , is keyboard app killed or just touchpads doesn't work?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDM inc:
Regardless of the transparency and acts exactly the same but that's not really being killed it just like loses energy or something because the app is still running in the background , not really sure logcat what's up what's wrong cuz the app is not crashing at us ceases to work

Hi xdarkmario,

I've tried to do some more testing with Gamekeyboard on Dixperia/Lupus. I ran into some problems where I can't get the touchpads to work at all now.

The phone I've been using was having trouble with the touchscreen not work on an intermittent basis any way... so I'm doing some troubleshooting to try to see if it's just my phone or something else. I can tell you for sure that Gamekeyboard and the touchpads are working good with PPSSPP on my other Xperia Play that's running stock 2.3.4 GB with stock kernel. I'm thinking that there may be something with the ROM or kernel that's making the touchpads stop working. If I can get my "test phone" working again, I'll try to find some more time to play with things.

---------- Post added at 09:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

Edit/update: So...after playing Bladeslinger with Gamekeyboard on the Dixperia/Lupus set up... my touchpads totally stopped working. I tried uninstalling and re-installing Gamekeyboard, which has worked in the past when they died... but they stillI wouldn't work. I even used fastboot to erase system/data/boot... then flashed lupus and Dixperia again... and still couldn't get the touchpads to work.

I was finally able to get them working again when I flashed the stock 2.3.4 ftf back to the device, so at least I know they're working. This phone that I'm using to test things has been having intermittent touchscreen problems, and now the micro usb connector is losing connectivity when I wiggle the usb cable... so I think the phone's about had it. :( Because the phone's been having problems, I'm not totally confident that my "test" results were accurate. I have a newer Xperia Play that has no hardware issues... and if I can find time, I'll see if I can load Dixperia/Lupus onto it and see what happens with Gamekeyboard and ppsspp.

I'm hoping there's still some other Xperia users out there who could test this out too.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDM inc:
Thank you for your extensive testing. So from what I see gamekeyboard doesn't seem to be working so well on custom roms but seems ok with stock ROMs. But I ready don't want to go to stock. Maybe I can pull the drivers (modules and lib from stock...?)

I have an android Lenovo Tablet which I got from China. Just to get rid of all chinese stuff, I rooted it and removed all those things not required. In this process I also removed default launcher and installed Nova Lunacher. Yesterday while playing with it i uninstalled nova launcher as well. Now when I reboot the tab there is blank screen and no icons I can see.

I tried factory wipe and that is also not working. I need to know if there is any way I can install .apk file now on my tab (nova launcher apk file). This will make it work fine.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tempest22:
I needed to unroot (originally Towelrooted) to get an update, now I'm wanting to root again. Is there any advantage to root with Odin instead of Towelroot? Has anybody found any security flaws or any other negative quality with Towelroot by now? Does Odin still trip Knox? Because Towelroot didn't trip mine. Is there anything that significantly makes Odin better to use? Thanks.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metalfan78:
How many threads are you going to start that ask the same question? This has been answered for you already. You updated, towelroot will no longer work for you, you need to root with cf-auto root using Odin. Knox will be tripped. You can try towelroot if you want.

There is no reason to make multiple threads for the same thing.

But he can downgrade the kernel with Odin, towelroot then and re-upgrade the kernel afterwards.

Hi,

I received the official update for my l10 from b126 to b133.

But after download I receive a checksum error.

Any ideas? Also the downloaded update.zip cannot be opened with zip viewers.

PS: rooted but stock recovery

Edit: solved by deleting the HWOUC folder on external SD and initiated update again
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
Almost the same problem for me, once it reaches the recovery to install the update, it gives error.
[Huawei Ascend P7] alexkno:
Worked for me then, don't forget to be on stock recovery
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
Yeah I was on TWRP but then I restored the stock recovery taken from this post to install this OTA update:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53980121&postcount=4

But no matter what after everything is downloaded and I give the 'ok' to install it, it stops at the recovery giving a 'FAIL' message big a quarter of the screen.
[Huawei Ascend P7] alexkno:
I'm using the same. Maybe its worth to download again by deleting the folder and initiating the download again.

Any hint on why it fails?
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
May I know how did you install the stock recovery?

I did the following:

-Connect phone to PC by debug mode

-adb reboot bootloader

Then phone goes into bootloader, flash mode:

-fastboot flash boot boot.img

-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

-fastboot flash recovery2 recovery2.img

I noticed that in the archive of the stock recovery, there's also a build.prop file. Am I missing something perhaps?

Anyway the "FAIL" error appears when the recovery is attempting to install the update at the 2/10 of the status bar, therefore after the checksum which means the update file is not corrupted.

I also tried several times to delete and re-download the update as you said but still no success..
[Huawei Ascend P7] alexkno:
No, I only flashed recovery.img via flashify.

So maybe it is due to recovety2.img? Just a guess
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
I just tried to flash just the recovery.img but still the same error.

I honestly can't think of any other solution now than a a lot of time wasting full wipe..
[Huawei Ascend P7] Mwolthuis:
I had the same problem. Tried deleting folder etc.

What worked for me was updating using HiSuite. Connect phone with cable with pc/laptop and use HiSuite for update. Made backup just to be sure but wasn't needed.
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
I was trying to do a nandroid backup and update via HiSuite like you suggested but then I encountered this.

Surely something is wrong my system partition lol, any ideas of why is it so huge? The previous backups were just 1.5 GB.

Perhaps I'll just do a backup of the apps with Helium and move on.
[Huawei Ascend P7] Mwolthuis:
That's strange. For your information. I had already the original recovery in place. So I did the backup from HiSuite (It came with this option). I didn't made a backup with TWRP or Nandroid backup.
[Huawei Ascend P7] vEEGAZ:
I'll try again this weekend and let you know the results, thanks anyway!

I believe Samsung forgot to add the option to enable the S View cover. Running build KTU84P.G850FXXU2ANI2. Did anyone find the option to switch it on? On the S5 and Note 3 the "switch" is under Accessories, no such option on the Alpha.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] TheDude1966:
Solved

Solved, the backside of the S View cover wasn't flush against the two contacts. Mind you, there is no S view cover setting in any of the menus. The Alpha detects the cover (if properly clicked in place), gives home screen S view cover selection screen and thats it.

Sure. With a brand new phone I'm more likely to download lots of games and apps. After a couple of months it's a music streaming (or mp3 playing), bus GPS tracking, texting machine 95% of the time.

But I do agree that installing a new OS or reformatting in general leads to renewed interest. Maybe part of the problem is being wary of installing more apps and bogging things down once it's been used for a while.

It also helps if you actually paid the whole sum for the phone in one go.

Buying it on a contract devaluates the phone in the sense that you don't actually recognize how expensive it was. 40 quid a month doesn't feel as expensive as 700 quid in one go.

People are always more appreciative of the value of things they had to put effort into. And saving your money for a year to buy a phone is certainly an effort most people simply aren't capable of anymore.
