[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wutang200:
Guys just got my Moto X 2014 and absolutely love it.

When I use my launch phrase to wake it up and ask it anything, it asks me to say or type my PIN straight away. My old one only asked me when I tried to send texts or make calls.

Is this normal or something that can be changed?

Reason being I don't want to say my PIN code when I'm demo-ing Moto Voice with mates.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sthpaw01:
So remove the PIN when demo-ing
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wutang200:
Will do.

I like it because it makes my phone more secure so not really a complaint.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pijo1971:
Hello,

I would like toknow if some has this following issue and how he has resolved.

I'm using the OPO with my bluetooth handsfree in my car (ix35).

Everytime I close a Call, the phone resumes the media player and starts to play.

I've experienced this with both Power Amp and Google Play Music.

I add also that in the I've removed the check for the option Settings->Sound->Launch muisc app

Kind Regards,

Luigi

Just changed to the z3 from my iphone 5s. After one week of use I see that I have alot of tiny scratches on the glass that covers the camera. On my Iphone 5s i have not a single scratch after a year of usage.

Anyone else having the same? I dont want to use a large case covering my phone, but the quality of my pictures matters a lot. Tips to preventing this to happen? Why is it happening?

Edit: Sorry, wrong part of forum. Please move.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geeks Empire:
Info

It s simple Smartphone cannot take care of itself you should be careful where to put it

iPhone 5s also have these kindda problem cause I experience it myself (lots of scratch on camera, back and front

there is small circle protector to just put on camera to prevent scratches (it doesn't effect on pic quality cause it s completely visible) and usually these protectors ships with screen protectors

:good:
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
Not really true as it deeply depends of the glass quality...

I've got a Samsung S4, took it with me on my Asia trips. Water, sand, rough handling, carrying it with lots of other stuff in the backpack.

NO (!) scratches on the camera lens.

Z3: Scratches on the glass backplane after one day of cautious use, crack in the display glass after listening to loud music for some time, rendering the touchscreen defective. Crack starting at the upper speaker which causes strong vibrations of the phone.

So it seems Sony doesn't care much about using quality glass; might be the same with the camera lens.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexanderdwag:
same problem with z3 camera scrathes.

me and my brother have the same problem, after only 2 weeks of use, both phones have the same problem, the camera glass looks very bad! so for me it's clear a material problem. Too bad, becuase the z3 it's really nice!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
I don't and I bet the majority of people also don't have these problems. I don't look after my phones either.

The things you describe do not "just happen" as a result of "one day of cautious use" and screens do not crack from listening to music on the pathetic quiet speakers.

Herei would like to share my experience, i noticed the same problem while agi, normally don'tuse fone camera alot, but noticed lately that it has gone rubbish, search on youtube and different forums everyone refer that toothpaste thing and some even told me about nail polish remover, before starting with the cure it came to my mimd why need clean my hands first before i start cleaning my camera lens,while i was usinghand wipes bought from local shop i attempt ti clean my phone too, accidently i rubbed it on lens too and i noticed they weregoing smoothly i rubbed it gently and yaayyy its gone without doing anything else,

So basically only need a hand wipe to remove those smooth stains from lens,only precaution be gentle to your device.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] william90130:
I have recently got a little scratch on my camera lens as well, i have look up on the internet and people say use toothpaste to remove the coating that is easily scratched. But I don't think i want to remove that layer of coating (if Z3 D6603 has that coating). Then I found the displex scratch remover, i wonder if this will work on the scratched Z3 camera lens. The scratch is very minor and does not affect the photo quality, but I just want it to be fixed.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chefproll:
Indeed. It's still like new.

But if it comes to the Z3, any scratches of the camera lens might improve the picture quality as the Z3 has the worst camera I ever experienced over the last few years.

Error

Hello,

I've purchased your app "CaughtU Pro" but I have got a problem with the settings. When I type in an incorrect password, the app takes a picture immediately. Even when I change the setting "Times when incorrect" to "Failed 5 times" or to another option, the app will take the picture after the first typo. I hope you can fix this issue as soon as possible. Except for this little error, the app does its job very well.

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards

mark_14

Hallo,

ich habe Ihre App "CaughtU Pro" gekauft. Allerdings gibt es ein Problem mit den Einstellungen der App. Immer, wenn ich ein falsches Passwort eingebe, wird ein Foto gemacht. Dies geschieht auch dann, wenn ich bei "Times when incorrect" eine andere Option wähle. Ich hoffe Sie können das Problem so schnell wie möglich lösen. Ansonsten macht die App ihren Job sehr gut.

Vielen Dank im Voraus.

Nice Concept

Why don't you add a hard reset safe function for rooted users. Because here on xda people try to secure devices already has open boot loaders and rooted. Like avast has option to withstand and lock reset function. Also you could add a very decent SMS function. Because sms function is always a way better option. Avast i think Disable USB debugging when activated(don't know exactly). These options make your app more worth. YOu can also add option to activate GPRS& GPS via a sms.:good:

include ssid list with signal strength (or maybe top 3) of nearby wifi networks in email. i think this would be beneficial to physically locating a device if gps signal is weak (less accurate) or to help pinpoint it's location as in 'that place there has ssid imathief with strong signal, let's check there'.

Hello all.

I have a Cingular branded 8125.

At this time, I have Molski's 3.0.0.0 AKU 3.2 Rom loaded

I have also tried to clock the cpu to 240mhz

It seems the phone does NOT handle multi tasking very well.

The gps works well if you do not ask the phone to do much such as make or take a call. At times even without calls on over the phone while the gps is running. It just starts to crawl very slow, screen re-draws become very slow.

I have tried several GPS applications that run just fine on normal pda's such as the Dell Axim x30-x51v line, these all have 624mhz cpu's.

I have even used these gps applications on the Dell Axim x5 300mhz pda with a Socket Bluetooth cf card without this problem.

My main goal for this phone was to have both, mobile phone with mobile gps

Does anyone have a suggestion on my next move?

I use Bluetooth gps receivers and the software I have now is:

iGuidance 2.1

Dell NavteQ GPS

Belkin GPS "similar as the Dell"

PocketMap Navigator R3 3.12 USA

MS Streets & Trips 2006

I have also tried to clock the cpu to 240mhz

What speed works for you?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] markgamber:
Try a Molski AKU 2.x rom and watch the difference. iGuidance doesn't like AKU 3.x. It's not the GPS unit because the spoken directions kept up with the positioning, it was the graphics that wouldn't move at all or, if they did, once every few minutes. You can use AKU 3.x or you can have working GPS software, your choice. Also, note that iGuidance is now up to 3.0.1.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] newbie2:
GPS Software Working With NO Problems!!

I've been using the OnCourse 5 system with a BT-339 SiRF-lll receiver. I usually overclock my 8125 to either 228 or 240 while using the receiver and mapping software. I'm also using Molski's 2.26 30MB ROM.

One other thing I do before firing it up is that I disable all my other Today plugins and reboot -- loading ONLY the navigational software. This seems to free up the resources needed to not only run the GPS, but to also handle phone calls, as well.

However -- YMMV -- depending on how much available memory your phone has otherwise.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] cyber16:
Thanks for the input.

Looks like I shall change roms to Molski's 2.26 and give it another try
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zylian91:
Hi XDA, I bought a Z3 Compact a few days ago, and yesterday this weird bug occured for the first time. The data is simply turned off suddenly when I check my phone, and nothing I do will turn it back on.. Toggling mobile data back and forth, searching for networks and clicking different ones, downloading internet settings again, airplane mode on/off etc. - nothing works except rebooting the phone, and then the data works again until next time it messes up. It did it again last night.

I googled the issue, and it seems some S4 users have had same problem with Android 4.4.2? Link to the issue is found here http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/70532

Apparently they report that you cant make calls either when this bug occurs, even when the phone says it has bars, however I havent tested regular calling. I will next time my device bugs out.

Has anyone experienced something similar and/or is there any way to fix it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
I had the same issue but only when Stamina mode was enabled. After a few hours I would lose mobile data and only a reboot would restore it. I cleared data for Eco Mode Controller, rebooted and the problem hasn't reoccurred since. Not sure if this helps or not.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zylian91:
I don't have it enabled, but I will definitely try clearing data for eco mode controller.

Also, I figured out that I can still make calls even when the data doesn't work. So it is not the same issue that is described in the link.

I think you have the same issue as described in this link? https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xper...sappearing-in-Stamina-mode/m-p/845155#U845155

I have had stamina mode on however, so I will try it anyway.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahrex:
I believe I had the same issue as you: cell signal dying after a while, but more often when cell reception was likely to be cut off (e.g. poor service areas or stamina mode). I'm also on T-Mobile in the US.

You can try the troubleshooting steps I took in this post, but what ultimately ended up working for me was a nano-SIM swap.

If you try all of the above and still haven't managed to fix it, I would suggest a phone swap.

Edit: typo
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zylian91:
But if the sim card was the problem, I wouldnt be able to make calls right? I mean, there must be a connection since I can call.

Also, the phone doesn't give me a notification with "No sim card" or something similar..

But then again, weird errors can happen.. I will order a new sim card if the problem persists and I am unable to find a solution
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahrex:
You might be right. My issue was signal, then no signal. I never got a "no SIM card" message, however.

Best of luck!
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
I am now getting this issue without using Stamina mode. I am currently sat at work with no data, same thing happened yesterday. It worked fine this morning but at some point it has gone and only a reboot will get it back. I am missing important notifications because of this.

It seems to happen when I move around the building and the signal goes weak. The About -> Status page currently shows:

Signal strength: -79 dBm 17 asu

Mobile network type: HSPA

Time to seek a refund.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rec71:
I never got this issue fixed, even after repairing the device using PC Companion so I've sent it back to Clove for a refund. I think Bluetooth may have something to do with it though: I use BT in the car and have a Fitbit connected. I spent a day with BT disabled and the issue did not occur. I then went for a run with BT headphones connected and when I got back I had no mobile data again.

So goodbye Xperia Z3 Compact.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] therealgiblet:
COPIED and PASTED for your ENJOYMENT:

I thought I’d share a quick tweak that applies to most of Sony’s Xperia Android phones. If you’re on the Three network and travel around a fair bit you’ll notice that occasionally you’ll lose the data connection and it won’t always come back until you reboot the phone. Very annoying.

This happens because Three still have some 2G roaming agreements in place for areas they don’t have coverage. That doesn’t include data roaming however and a lot of devices (including the iPhone still) have trouble with this.

The way to fix this is to set the ‘Network Mode’ to ‘4G/WCMA’. Annoyingly you can’t set this in the ‘Mobile Network Settings’ section, you’ll need to go into hidden service menu to get to the setting. From the dialler, type this:

*#*#SERVICE#*#*

'Service' is typed as you would on a T9 predictive text keyboard, so thats one key press per letter.

Once your into the service menu, choose ‘Network Mode’ and then within this menu choose ‘LTE_WCDMA’.

You’ll see the radio stack reboot (so you’ll lose your connection while it does this).

No longer shall you experience the annoying ‘data never comes back’ issue.

It goes without saying that changing this setting is at your own risk.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpurick:
You should manually set your network to WCDMA/GSM first. Then do as suggested above.

The problem is that the mode will automatically fall back to whatever is set in the UI if you even load the Mobile Networks control (by simply selecting the menu item in settings). If you leave it stock, then going into mobile networks will cause it to "fallback" into the failure mode. But if you manually set it to WCDMA/GSM then going in to Mobile Networks will only cause it to fallback into HSPA+, which isn't bad.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Emexrulsier:
I'm getting this exact same issue but on my galaxy s5 only a reboot will resolve it I wonder if it is also in relation to 2G networks. I am on EE and the just recently sold to BT could be that their infrastructure now includes 2G coverage with no data for some places? Soon as I reboot back on 4G. Looked in settings and annoyingly only auto ones are 2G/3G/4G and 2G/3G there is no 3G/4G auto connection type guess I need to find a Samsung secret menu?
