[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeitX:
Well here's the case:

Model: Xperia Play R800at

1. It's stuck on the 'Sony Ericsson' logo (running solely on battery) *unless* you plug it in the charger where it boots normally and then when you disconnected the charger from the phone, the phone shuts down and then we're back to square one :(.

2. The touch screen/panel is not responding :(.

3. I've flashed the stock GB 2.3.3 R800at FTF using Flashtool and the problems above still persists :(.

Can anyone help me with this, any kind or form of help would be very much appreciated :fingers-crossed:.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattnmag:
My first thought was that you may have a bad battery.... but then you mention the touchscreen problem. Does the touchscreen work with the phone plugged in? Do you have a way to test the battery to make sure it's not faulty?

If there's a md5 available for the ftf file? If so, I'd check that as well. You may try to download the ftf again from a different source and flash it again to make sure you didn't get a corrupted download.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Maybe it's damaged slider flex cable AND bad battery.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FeitX:
So far I've seen 5 similar cases apart from mine which describes exactly everything that my problem has.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2056309

This is one of them, a quick reading will mention that the battery, digitizer, or even flashing the same FTF yields no relation to the current problem. Do also take note that when I re-flashed my XP's FTF the system still boots up.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
For touchscreen problem, try different firmwares (even some old ones). As i remember, there was two types of touchscreen, flashing old ftf fix that. If it is software problem. If It's hardware problem, 90% it is slider flex cable's fault, 10% it is bad digitizer.

As for power problem, i still think it's bad battery... You can check it by connecting it to PC usb and start some heavy demanding game. If it is bad battery, usb won't have enough power to charge bad battery and run the game (so it will power off or reset)
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doclucas:
Last year when I went to choose a note 3 I had 2 major options, the N900 with Exynos chipset and the the N9005 with Snapdragon.

Traditionally I choose the phone that has the largest developers community and XDA supprt, and the clear winner was the N9005.

In this context, which one will be the best choice this year and why?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Archiimonde:
I'd go for Exynos because of the Wolfson DAC, but they only sell the Snapdragon version where I live. :(

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Datafiend:
In the past the Snapdragon versions of Samsung phones have gotten the most amount of support from the community and has overall preformed better than their Exynos counterparts. I would personally go with the SD version.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfiniteRefrain:
I agree - that being said, there may be people who dev for Exynos. Best advice is to wait before picking it up to so what gets released and which of those you like the best. In addition, waiting may end up saving you some money as people tend to sell off phones a month or two after release if they upgrade, or don't like the phone.
[Xperia SP General] prabhav.3892:
HI,

I have a RedMI 1s too and i tried its charger to charge my SP and it got charged insanely fast.Even on AOSP based Roms. Although it got a bit heated up but that was under normal levels.It took 1-1.5hrs charging it while not using it while the original charger takes 2-3 hrs.

So using this charger more frequently damage my SP??
[Xperia SP General] nkat:
Check the amp rating of the charger. Chargers of upto 1A wont do much harm.

I was using a note 2 2A charger and my battery stopped working, had to replace the battery.
[Xperia SP General] pec0ra:
The phone itself will probably not have problems but the battery will. It is almost sure that your battery will loose more capacity with time if you charge it too fast.
[Xperia SP General] Vinay_FXG:
It's always recommended to use the Original Charger and Battery :) A phone, battery and its charger, all have specified Amp rating and its not advised to go beyond that. I always use a Lumia's charger rated at 1.3Amps and never had a problem yet. It's not recommended to go to higher values though ;)

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martian21:
Has anyone found a way to deinterlace video in XBMC on the FireTV? I realize that streaming content isn't interlaced and therefore the box really was never intended to play back 1080i content however one of the purposes of my FireTV boxes is to serve as a front end for MythTV which means that Live TV and much of my recorded content (unless I transcode) is interlaced.

I'm don't need any of the real fancy deinterlacing algorithms, something as simple as Bob would be enough. It really doesn't look that bad from my viewing distance but in fast motion scenes it is noticeable. I'm certain the FireTV can handle it, it's just a matter of finding the software to make it happen.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Should probably note that my boxes are rooted.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctaranto:
I am having the same issue. I have an HDHomerun Plus feeding my Win7 box. I have tried XBMC 13.2, Kodi 14, and SPMC 13.4 on my FireTV. I have toggled hardware acceleration, MediaCodec, de-interlacing, etc. Any 1080i broadcast with fast horizontal movement (like football) is awful. I have tried both NextPVR (feeding the NextPVR Client) and Windows Media Center (feeding the WMC Client) on the Fire TV. Same result, which is expected since both are providing the same MPEG-2 1080i content.

My existing setup is an HDHomerun Plus WMC feeding a Ceton Echo box, which deinterlaces 1080i great. I'm trying to migrate off of that so I can have a single device (FireTV) that handles TV, online streaming, local streaming, etc.

I haven't tried this yet, but the HDHomerun Plus can transcode in hardware to x264. I've had it disabled because the Ceton Echo doesn't like x264 much. I'll try it with the FTV and see how it goes...

My FTV is rooted as well, running the latest pre-rooted firmware.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kmarq:

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gt2690b:
ive been messing with it lately.. PQ has not been great yet.. ive used both the hdhomerun add-on and server-wmc pvr method via kodi... would rather get 1080i working great from the pvr.. hard to beleive that its 2015 and we cant get de-interlacing right in xbmc/kodi... the old mce 2005 worked better on old ass hardware.. very frustrating

i came on here hoping to find an answer... im thinking maybe i can root and install my own mpeg2 decoder for kodi? who knows

edit: looks like the BOB-inverted works best for me... very usable.. KODI FTW
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidJoe:
Any tips or help you can offer on getting this setup right?

I had a 1st Gen Fire TV that worked fine with SPMC 14.x for some interlaced recordings I've made with my Hauppauge HDPVR2, and/or DVD's converted to MKV using VideoRedo..

I've updated to a 2nd Gen Fire TV with Kodi 15.2 (since SPMC stops at 15.0) and none of the interlaced videos I have tried play correctly.

EDIT: Never mind.. this seems to be 2nd gen Fire TV related, as it does it in Kodi and Plex.

The other day i got the OTA update for xnph38r for my OPO after i updated it i realized i had lost all signal.

i am on AT&T network and the phone was working perfectly fine until the update

- using ART runtime at the time of update

- when i reboot the phone i noticed that when holding the power button it says airplane mode is on but when i look at the icon or the status bar it is not on

- have tried soft reset and hard reset a few times already

- tried going back to 33r and even 22r but signal has yet to come back

- i see at&t's apn but when i got to choose a network operator i get the message "error while searching for networks"

other than ART rather than dalvik the phone was stock.

anyone have any ideas as to why my phone cant get a signal?

I noticed that the kernels are linked separately from the ROMs. Am I supposed to download and flash the kernels separately? I've flashed about half a dozen ROMs, but I've never flashed a kernel before. From what I've read, though, it sounds like following the same procedure. How about GApps? Do I need to download and flash those, too? And, if so, which pack should I use?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] cars1189:
Roms come with a kernel the kernel linked is just special some have overclock under volt etc etc.

Explains the kernel options.

If you do flash them do it after rom.

Gapps you dont technicly have to but yes. (for a standard setup flash gapps)And there should be a gapps linked at the start of rom. If not there will be soon.

Can't import contacts from SIM

Thanks! That clears up a lot.

I installed CM, and it looks very cool and smooth. But when I tried to import contacts from my SIM card, it said "No contacts". I thought maybe it was because I hadn't installed GApps, so I downloaded the "small" GApps package linked from the CM wiki and installed it from CWM. Still no contacts on the SIM card. Next, I thought that maybe my contacts actually weren't on my SIM for some reason. So, I booted back into CWM recovery and restored my previous system. Then, from the phone app, I went to Import/Export > Manage SIM card contacts. Sure enough, all of my contacts were there.

It seems like CM isn't reading my SIM. Any idea what's causing this?

Edit: Never mind. I found out that newer versions of Android don't allow you to store contacts locally. Somehow, the contacts got silently added without me having to import them, though. That's odd, because I don't remember allowing Google to store them in the cloud, and the SIM card appears blank... Oh, well, I installed MyLocalAccount, so I'll see if I can store the contacts locally that way.

[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] RobbyG2112:
I recently installed 10.2 and am loving it so far. One thing I ran into though was that the cLock widget was showing lots of wakelocks, so I disabled it and battery life has been great. Haven't run into any other issues (other than the screen staying on when off and charging), so this one is a keeper for me.

Didn't see this problem with 10.1, so curious if this is a known issue or not with the cLock widget? Also, are there any other planned updates coming for 10.2?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] canodroid15:
[MENTION=4677787]RobbyG2112[/MENTION] I noticed it too when I was on 10.2 how ever I only ran it for a week maybe b4 going to cm11 I will say not sure if cars will update 10.2 but if you haven't tried cm11 its super stable and gets updated monthly!!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] RobbyG2112:
Thanks for confirming canodroid15, I wasn't sure what the lock screen would show when I disabled the widget but it put the default digital clock and date in it's place so it works out ok. I had disabled the weather and alarm widgets also so wasn't sure why having only the clock widget would cause wakelocks.

I'll probably get around to installing CM11 next, I'm a little slow on upgrading. I had been using CM10 for a long time and finally got tired of seeing the green preview pictures every time I used the camera so decided to go to CM10.1/10.2 recently.

kernel for cm11 (SGH-T679)

I recently installed [MENTION=1816400]cars1189[/MENTION]'s CM11 10-4-14 build for the SGH-T679, with kernel 3.4.104-cyanogenmod-gda4bf58. It took a few tries, but it finally succeeded.

However, there's a slight issue in that I can't access my SIM card contacts. When I try to import from the dialer, it says "no contacts." I've searched around these threads and on the internet, and it seems that it is an issue with the kernel. Would it be possible for someone to recommend or point me to a compatible kernel that would fix that issue for me? Thank you so much for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] canodroid15:
[MENTION=6172256]valmeras[/MENTION] I really don't think it has anything to do with the stock cm kernel but if your on 10/4/14 you can flash 9/9k^k kernels safely on that build about sim contacts idk I use my Google account to sync my contacts hope this helps good luck!

Edit: look for the rom & kernel dates/links in OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] valmeras:
[MENTION=5806583]canodroid15[/MENTION] - thanks for the response and suggestion. I'll give that kernel a try in the next few days. Not sure this is the solution, but hopefully that works. I've also seen some reference to SIM Tool Kit (STK), but I wasn't able to figure out if it that was the issue.

I would definitely use Google for syncing the contacts once I get this fixed, but for now, that's not possible because my phone is not able to read the SIM properly. I've tried saving a contact to the SIM, but I get an error like "unable to write, SIM is full" but I know for sure that's not the case. Alternatively, I might try to revive my old dumb phone and try to retrieve the contacts that way, then hopefully export that in some way.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] canodroid15:
[MENTION=6172256]valmeras[/MENTION] no prob man, if you have contacts on your sim and u put the sim in the dumb phone and export to storage u could then send a vcard via Bluetooth to the exhibit go into contacts and import from storage then Google sync good luck let me kno if u get it
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] valmeras:
So I flashed the kernel, but that didn't fix my issue. I do have some more free RAM now though :)

My old phone doesn't support exporting multiple contacts/vcards via bluetooth, but fortunately, Motorola has a contact exporter utility that exported everything into a CSV file to my laptop via USB. I had to install the drivers for the old phone to be recognised first. I was skeptical it would work given it was a new all-in-one driver thingie and my Motorola was quite old, but somehow it did! The whole process took several hours, but my contacts are now synced!

Thanks for posting these ROMs! I just upgraded from Peach Sunrise and I'm really impressed with how well CM11 runs on this phone.

I want to report a problem I had and my solution for the next guy's benefit. With the latest 12-9-14 CM11 ROM, my sensors and compass didn't work correctly.

Question about getting Google apps running on a SGH-T679

I installed CM 10.2 (cm-10.2-20140627-UNOFFICIAL-ancora_tmo) and it worked fine. I tried a couple different gapps downloads (doing a reinstall of CM10.2 between tries although I may have done that step incorrectly). But no matter what 4.3 gapps build I tried, Google Play Services would crash.

My main goal is to get to 4.3 or higher, so CM 10.2 or CM 11 would be great. (I'm open to other ROMs too. The only reason I'm choosing CM is because those are the only ROMs indicated as still maintained here: http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Exhibit_4G )

My question is whether anyone has either CM version running on a T679 and which gapps did you use? I nearly bricked my phone and would like to know that someone else has gapps running okay before I try again.

Thanks!

EDIT: I followed the 2 following threads to install CM 11 with the PA pico gapp package and added a few other Google apps manually from the Play store. I also made sure to reboot several times to make sure everything got fully initialized.

Hey man! I hope you got it figured out! The only Gapps I use are PA Gapps! There are others but PA is the most complete package & has many options "IMO". You need to use a package that will fit your phone I use the micro package, or the nano. You need to use a package that matches your ROMs version, if your on 4.4.x then use 4.4.x Gapps. If on 4.3 use 4.3 Gapps. PA Gapps has a 4.3 package but its hard to find if you don't know where to look. 4.3 package can be found in the devs (Tkruzze) files on android file host, same place as the 4.4.x Gapps!
