[Motorola Droid 4] M_w_B:
I bought a Photon Q and it was a 130 euro waste.... It is now just laying in my room, waiting for operation.

First disaster: I came from an Xperia Pro, which I flashed a lot, and when the Photon Q finally arrived I started to wipe everything so I could flash the latest snapshot from CM. When you wipe everything: you wipe everything. The phone now has no MAC adress anymore and so bluetooth and Wifi are not working at all.

Second disaster: the soldered sim-slot appeared not to be soldered well, so the SIM ofc does not work. I took out the S3 sim slot and it seems I have to solder my sim into the device myself (I did not want to do this myself!)

Thrid disaster: the screen has a weird stain on it, that appears to be underneath the glass-plate (?) I also quickly got my first very visible scratch eventhough I could not fully use the phone yet. A new screen is not that expensive but it demands so much time to get this done...

Enfin: I am a student with 3 jobs and have no time to fix this. The phone is not working, and I bought a Droid 4 which was like plug & play compared to my Photon Q (and less than half as cheap) I still hope to own a decent Photon Q someday but my money for such has became too low. Droid 4 is my reliable dog right now.

It worked immediatly after I flashed the ROM, but a few minutes later disconnected and won't reconnect even after rebooting the device.

Any idea?

I can't help you with the WiFi, but in having a problem with Bluetooth. All CyanogenMod ROMs after the stable snapshot, and their derivatives, I can't get it to connect with my car.

Unfortunately my car is also my only Bluetooth device.

Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot it?

Bluetooth worked on the first posted Carbon, but not the newest. :(

Hello,

So one of my friends has an Acer Liquid E1 brought from China. It's a nice phone and it works perfect. The only issue with it is connected to the region.

I've tried installing a Google Play Store APK but it won't work. When I've finally found one that was working, and not crashing continously, it didn't connect to the Google servers; it stucked to the log in part. Basically, I cannot install any type of Google services on it.

I've tried several methods of rooting, softwares that are rooting your phone with one click (I was in a hurry so I thought this could be helpful) but all of these softwares are telling me that my phone is already rooted...I've tried unrooting it and than rooting it again, but it seems like there's no success.

So, can you tell me a good way of rooting this phone? I've also tried a method which I've found here on the forum, but with no success. It used a flash tool.exe application. :).

thank you!

I'm not the best when it comes to searching roms. Just wanted to know whether there was a actual android L rom or maybe a heavily themed (I mean really heavy) 4.4 rom for the att s4 (i337 safestrap). Maybe someone could give me some insight or point me in another direction
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] StoneyJSG:
I don't think roms for Android L are out yet as Google won't be officially releasing it until next month. Then give or take a week or 3 for the devs to get their hands on it and play around with the source code to make some roms.

well hello there xda community and others,

I've recently obtained knowledge of the "PreRelease" of WM6 Crossbow. Therefore I went in search of it and installed on my i-mate Jasjar and briefly used every version. During my experience of using it...I concluded to say how it seemed pretty speedy, except one minor issue (but not minor for normal use) The issue is the two soft keys...generally named Calendar & Contacts. The issue is...when pressing either one, hardware button or through screen 'n' stylus, there was a whole second delay. I know that this isn't a final version, but in the videos I've seen of the OS, the soft key action is executed immediately with no waiting period. I haven't read of this issue anywhere else...Might someone enlighten me of whether this is an isolated issue on my individual Jasjar or if this is common amongst others.

Thanks - any comments are of use to me

hi all,

i have a problem with my galaxy s4 mini, yesterday i copied a movie from my pc to my phone, it was 1.2 gig big and after i copied it there was no movie to be found in the folder where i put it in.

i got a message that my memory was full, so im missing 1.2 gig of my internal memory, how can i fix this?

probebly it will be solved by going back to factory setting but thats a last resort for me, im hoping sombody knows a solution whitout a hard reset.
[General Topics] ShadowLea:
Silly suggestion, but have you rebooted the phone? Sometimes the file indexers crash (or get disabled) and the files are there but won't show up.

Also, tried another file manager?
[General Topics] Walter76:
thanks for the reply, i have tried both of them.
[General Topics] davidpeter:
have a try to format your sd card
[General Topics] Walter76:
we are talking about the internal memory here, i cant format this right?
[General Topics] teonagode:
You can, if you format your phone ;)
[General Topics] Dark3n:
If you copied the file via MTP from your computer, it sometimes fails to refresh the media index.

Try to look at the copy destination with an app from your phone, i.e. a file explorer that does not hide hidden or temp files. It possible that the file is there and you can manually delete it.

Is there any way to use Evernote instead of Google Keep as the default note taking app? I know some of you will hate on Evernote but I've been using it since before Google Keep came out and have all my devices synched to it so its just easier to keep using it.

I've read somewhere that you just launch Evernote from the watch launcher and say to use that as default or something but I have no idea how to launch an app from the watch directly (its not in my Wear Mini Launcher drawer).

Just got my watch today so still learning how to use it :D
[Moto 360] Bikegeek:
Open Android Wear app. Scroll down to Take a Note and tap it once. Choose which app to use, Evernote or Keep.
[Moto 360] MrGuarnere:
Thank you, this is something I've already tried but I do not get Evernote as an option. Im using Nexus 4 running KitKat.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsulway:
My new xperia z3 compact (D5803) receives text messages and calls very intermittently. I'm on AT&T US, stock firmware.

- If I am using the phone (or have very recently used the phone, say within 30 seconds) then most calls and text messages come through fine (though not always).

- If I leave the phone alone for more than a few minutes, text messages or calls almost never come through - though occasionally I get a text message many hours after it was sent.

- If someone leaves a voicemail (because I didn't answer the phone, because the phone didn't ring!), I don't get a notification until I open the voicemail app and manually sync.

- I can make a phone call or send a text message with no problems (texts arrive immediately).

I don't have any of these problems when I put my SIM back into my HTC One M8.

I've tried the following to fix this:

- I went to the AT&T store and had them give me a new nano SIM. It made no difference; same issues.

- I factory reset my phone. It made no difference; same issues.

- I updated to the US version of the firmware. It made no difference; same issues.

- I put the SIM into a second, until that point unused, xperia z3. It made no difference; same issues.

Given that I have exactly the same issues after changing both the SIM and the phone, I can only think it must be some kind of compatibility issue with using AT&T on this phone - except I see that many other users of this forum are on AT&T and aren't having the same problems.

I do notice that I don't have the best signal in my house (usually 1-2 bars) so I'm wondering if maybe that could be related? As I say though, my HTC One works fine, as do all of the other AT&T phones in my house.

I think my next step will be to go and buy a T-Mobile prepaid SIM, just to see if that works, but does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? All in all this is getting pretty frustrating, because I LOVE the phone, but right now it's unusable for me.

Im having the same issues. I restart the device and then come all the missed calls and missed txt messages.. i really hope theres a easy fix to this soon.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsulway:
So, I switched my SIM from AT&T to T-Mobile and it fixed my issues. It seems that the either the poor AT&T reception in my house or some other strange incompatibility between the phone and AT&T was the problem.

Either way there's obviously some kind of issue with this phone - my guess is that when connectivity with the network is poor, the phone maybe times-out and gives up. Perhaps Sony will fix this with a firmware update at some point. In the mean time I would suggest that other folks having this issue maybe go to a part of town where they know reception is very good and see if the problems happen there.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaronv20:
So after 2 days of of testing, a new nano sim card and several phone calls to ATT I found temporary fix. Change your Network mode to WCDMA (preffered)/GSM. While this wont give you LTE it will prevent the missed phone calls and txt messages and at least you have HSPA+ . The problem is the LTE connection to ATT. The connection either drops and or prevents phone calls /texts from coming through the lower HSPA + or 2g bands... Not sure why this is. Hoping that when the Sony Store models start shipping on Nov 2nd they have the same issue and Sony will send out an update to fix the connection issue.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lun731:
I'm on the US ATT network with the same problem as well. After trouble shooting I have come to agree with you. I'm really hoping Sony sends out an update.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertkoa:
Is this a problem on Tmobile USA with Z3 Compact also?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doyouwannabuildasnowman:
same issues!

I have two Z3 compacts (US version purchased direct from Sony) on my family plan with the same issues of not receiving SMS or calls when connected to wi-fi, and occasionally cannot receive SMS or calls when not connected to wi-fi either. I am always able to send texts and calls, and MMS/LTE always work (I am usually e-mailed when my phone isn't working and I get that right away). Whenever the phones aren't receiving calls, it rings once and goes to voicemail, which tips us off that the phones aren't working.

If you are also getting this problem, please get on AT&T chat and ask them to escalate/forward to their manager. We've got to get their attention. Additionally, I was told that "Okay so since the phone is unlocked our service is not guaranteed to work at full capacity, also I can not submit a case due to it is not an at&t phone. "
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jangle908:
Yep - Same problem over here. AT&T in Northeast USA.

AT&T tried everything they could (resettings connection, etc) but again also said that it isn't guaranteed to work because it's an unlocked device.

I'm doing a system repair on the phone from the sony desktop application. Hoping it will fix, but not hopeful. Now sony says they want to have my phone in for testing. :/

I'm hoping they realize soon that this is a bug, and not a case of a broken phone.

Not working MMS

Yep I have tried all of the above solutions and nothing is working. Changed APN multiple times, factory reset, switched SIM, called att, went into the store.

Like above, ATT came to the conclusion that unlocked phones are sometimes not compatible with their service and there's only so much trouble shooting they can do.

I have ATT in san francisco, and it's looking like I'm going to return the Xperia z3c. Shame it's a great phone besides the MMS issue.

Confirmed that this worked on my wife's z3c. She wont miss the LTE anyway since she is always near wifi and when she isn't 3G is definitely good enough. We streamed spotify for an hour today on country roads on her phone on 3G. No issues.

I'm having the same issue with my D5803 on At&t Austin TX. At&t has found no issues with the network. Sony's technical support had me reset my phone using the PC companion software, which didn't fix the problem. My current fw version is 23.0.A.2.93. I see Sony has a new version 23.0.A.2.105 which hasn't rolled out to the US yet. I'm hoping this new FW fixes the issue.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtilson:
Thanks - also not a viable solution! Looks like aaronv20 has already established turning off LTE as a temporary fix. Don't know if anyone has definitively tested Wifi on/off though.

I'm running 23.0.A.2.105 and still have the problems, unfortunately.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sublimnl:
The solution is not to turn off wifi - it is to disable LTE and use 3G only until Sony fixes this. Since turning off LTE, my wife's phone still works as it should. She still has 3G data which is plenty when she is not on WiFi.

---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

Of course people have tried with/without WiFi. That does not fix this issue. I'm curious why disabling LTE is not a viable solution. 3G is plenty and at least the phone works as it should (just a little slower since no LTE). Disabling LTE WILL extend the already crazy battery life though - so that's a "plus."
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtilson:
Having to turn off LTE on a ~$500 smartphone in order to ensure it functions properly is LUDICROUS! Sure, I could watch a TV show in standard definition, and it would be an OK experience; however, when I've paid for HD service, I expect superior quality! Same with LTE vs. 3G. 3G was "plenty" in 2005 but not today. The point remains that this is a major flaw of this phone that needs a real solution.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sublimnl:
No one is arguing with you there, but this is the boat we are in. If its that big of a deal then return the phone, or take your aggression to Sony directly and reference this thread so that they know this is a real and widespread issue. No one here can do anything about this so complaining that the solution offered here is not good enough is pointless in this particular venue.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtilson:
I'm sorry, but I find your statement "I'm curious why disabling LTE is not a viable solution" really dumb and thus felt the need to defend myself. I appreciate the advice of turning off LTE as a short-term fix and will do so until a better solution is available. My main goal in posting was to ask if others had reported this to Sony. I think we need a concerted effort to get Sony to make progress on this issue.

I had a similar problem. When I updated from an old Samsung with full size SIM to the Xperia, I went to the AT&T store and asked if I could cut the old SIM to nano SIM size and use it either in the Xperia or in the old Samsung with a SIM adapter. NOOOO.... we don't recommend SIM adapters!!! So they gave me a new nano SIM , and the Xperia worked in the store. I left all happy, only to find out later the WEIRD FLAKINESS: after calling out with Xperia, it would receive ONE call in. Further call-ins didn't work. So I went back to AT&T store to get a SIM back for the old phone. I assumed they changed back the IMEI to that of the old Samsung with LTE. Then I cut the SIM into nano SIM and used in the Xperia. It did the same problem, the IMEI different from that of Xperia didn't solve it. So I followed your move to change Network Mode to WCDMA (preffered)/GSM and THIS DID THE TRICK. I don't know how, why, but I will use the phone now and forget everything about networks. What I will not forget is how AT&T STINKS! I would dump them completely except that I have a very cheap old GoPhone plan with many unused minutes accumulated.

Another case in northeast

I purchased my Z3c off the US website, and have been using it without issue for a few days now (~10 days), but now I'm suddenly seeing this issue.

I've taken the advice from others here to turn off LTE and will also add to the Sony support thread. But this is pretty infuriating.

I've also recently upgraded to 23.0.1.A.5.77, but that seems to have only made the problem worse!

Does anyone know if AT&T is going through network changes that's causing this issue to pop up? Also, would changing the IMEI associated to my SIM card make a difference? I'm currently using a different phone's IMEI value so it'll trick the AT&T system into allowing LTE, but in my accounts page, it just shows a flip-phone.
