Not yet mate, actually i'm kinda not giving a s#*t right now, been with the new .292 update, reboots happening 10 - 15 times a day, but i'm like, whatever...

I didn't knew lollipop was already out for Xperia Z, i've seen some post around about it but nothing official, so i didn't read into it, could you link me please? worth a try, if not, maybe i'll stick with the wakelock and UnderVoltage-UnderClocking fix with a custom ROM, it looks like no one happens to know about this, im willing to pay for another battery now but i don't even know if that's going to fix it, oh well...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orangejuice43:
Yep Its lovely on the Z too :D you have to do it with fastboot (nothing flashable from recovery yet) but its good!

Here's the link to the Q and A ( http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z/help/qa-lollipop-xperia-z-t2929956) if you stumble over any issues, there's a guide at the start if you need. There's two builds, I'm on the pabx build and haven't really come across any issues. (http://www.blinkenlights.ch/ccms/android/yuga-l.html)

Fingers crossed for you!

ALmost same prob.

I almost have the same problem on my tablet. Always happens on deep sleep. When you press the power button to wake. Screen turns on but black screen for a few miliseconds then off again. 2nd press, the homescreen will appear for a few miliseconds then off again. 3rd press then everything works fine. I'm gonna try that kernel log to find the culprit

Hi there - cretinous noob posting a thread here. :p

As I was thinking of buying a Sony Xperia Z3 in the UK, as the thread title says, I was wondering where people on here have got the handset from and state what locks the handsets have. Here's one way to post said information (this is an example)

- Location/Store: Carphone Warehouse - Birmingham (UK) (they're known for selling untampered handsets)

- SIM Lock Status: Unlocked

- Bootloader Lock Status: Unlockable (permanently locked handsets are usually acquired through carriers sadly)

Also, just to be clear, this thread applies to everyone on an international level, even though I am buying said handset from the UK.

Special thanks go to rehanraza for inspiring me to write this thread, especially when this will (hopefully) help potential buyers when it comes to buying the Xperia Z3.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell664:
I got my Xperia Z3 yesterday, from 3 and the information is as follows:

-Location/Store: Carphone Warehouse - Worksop (Nottinghamshire) (UK)

- SIM Lock Status: Unlocked

- Bootloader Lock Status: Unlockable (permanently locked handsets are usually acquired through carriers sadly)

Bear in mind mine is from the 3 network, however, I flashed the generic UK FTF to get rid of the carrier stuff. :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funky0308:
Won't happen.

There are surveys for all Xperias and that never helped.

Buy carier free device and you'll get BL status yes.

Just hold your horses and check everything before you unlock your BL.

Sony has DRM keys which will be permanently deleted if you unlock bootloader.

If there's still no way to root device before unlocking bootloader that means there's no way to backup DRM keys...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] russell664:
In agreement with Funky here, do not unlock the bootloader until a locked bootloader root method is found.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aha360:
What do you mean by "won't happen"?

As fornthis survey, its sole purpose is just a guide (nothing more than that) as to where you will most likely get a bootloader-unlockable device (for installing custom ROMs et cetera if you're willing to take the risk) and yes, whilst getting a SIM-free device is the best way to guarantee that (no s***, Sherlock), there are some carrier-based stores that MAY provide bootloader-unlockable Xperia handsets (I went into a Vodafone store one week ago to help sort out my brother-in-law's HTC one mini and after said issue was sorted, I admittedly pressed *#*#7378423#*#* into the Xperia Z2 and the M2 if I recall correctly - the former said no but the latter said yes), and as for "all these surveys haven't helped" part, I have to strongly disagree there for the most part, especially when I now know where to best get a Sony handset from after reading the Z2 survey thread but on the other hand, what may be helpful to me may not be helpful to you.

As for me in terms of what I am personally going to do in terms of actually purchasing a handset, I usually tend to wait before I feel that I am comfortable modding my device due to the reasons you have mentioned (being able to reverse system changes and being abke to modify your phone without any complications) and that I feel that the handset makers are not supporting the device well, in which I ended up installing OmniROM 4.4.x on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) because of Samsung taking the p*** with their updates and giving the owners of the "baseline international version" of the S3 a big fat "f*** you" by not providing a Kitkat update, and therefore I agree with you when it comes to being patient before going down the modding route and I would suggest the same to the common modding folk here. :p
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fl4r3:
Really liked the mint silver colour so picked it up from O2 today:

- Location/Store: O2 - London (UK)

- SIM Lock Status: locked

- Bootloader Lock Status: No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly it is locked. I have requested a SIM unlock code and going to try that, then flash a generic FTF to see if it changes to yes.

If that doesn't work then the phone is going back under the 14 day return policy and would mean I cannot have the green colour :crying:....well at least I can get copper from Carphone Warehouse.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aha360:
Well, unfortunately, from what I have read on here, simply asking for a SIM unlock code and flashing a generic FTF file will not change the "bootloader unlock status" flag, so if I were you, your best bet is to just go to Carphone Warehouse and get a handset from there, and tell O2 that you don't want the handset that is provided by them.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fl4r3:
Yeah I know it is a long shot but there have been a few rare cases where it has worked (although the legitimacy is unclear).

Thought I'd give it a try before I return it as it is the only place to get the mint silver colour.

o2 uk unlock stutus=no

Origonally i got a z3 d6603 online with o2 UK, checked the bootloader unlock allowed status and it said no.

So that went straight back on the 14 day return policy.

Ended up getting a sim unlocked version from the catalogue people, very.co.uk.

Got a 10% off code for being a new customer, and i went through quidco for another 7% cashback.

All good now, bootloader can be unlocked.

Cant wait to get flashing when some roms start popping up.

O2 is sim locked and bootloader can't be unlocked.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killa78:
If you request a sim unlock, you waive your 14 day return period. I remember asking O2 the same thing.

Then again the green z3 was worth more to me than this unlockable bootloader jazz.

Yes they also do it free of charge if your in contract with them. However still can't unlock the bootloader.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Siames31:
I bought a lenovo a806 from China with loads of bloatware and I tried to change the ROM. Apparently, I also wiped /dev/nvram. Long story short, I tried all the methods I could google, even bricked the phone a few times,only to realize that no matter what i did I could not solve the problem with /dev/nvram.

I think the only solution is to find a nvram.img or .bin which would work on my device, maybe from someone who owns one? Is this true? Does it have to be the exact same device? And is this the only way? I've also tried to use SN write tool but for some reason it gets stuck on:

COM port searching and preloader handshake ok

COM port searching and Kernel handshake

Error: Connect failed

There may be other ways that I don't know but with mtk droid tools it is possible to back it up (creating a .bin from /dev/nvram and a .tar from /data/nvram) so, if anyone would be so kind as to send me these files, I would be most grateful.

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Siames31:
Found the solution (thanks to Cihad for his precious help):

The forum doesn't allow me to post a link to the instruction video, but you can find youtube video entitled "(solved) Lenovo a806 imei invalid" by Cihad Eren.

1. install stock in SP flash tools (option format, not just download)

2. generate MP0B_001_NEW file (in description of youtube video entitled "Lenovo A850+ MT6592m Imei Change / İmei Değişimi") and rename it to MP0B_001

slowly:

use root explorer and delete /data/nvram/md5/NVRAM/NVD_IMEI/MP0B_001

replace with generated file

wait 5 secs

reboot

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evronetwork:
After a lot of digging it seems it might be the "Chinese" version of the phone which doesn't work with European sims ..I might be wrong who knows :p

It's not that I can do much about it, my father kept the phone as it wanted to use it as a "small tablet" ..so no fuss about it. I might try it but most things point that's the Chinese variation and that's why I'm getting invalid imei :D

P.S. If I find some free time I might try this to my fathers phone ..I would need root access and a recovery to flash it won't I? although I'm hesitating a bit, although I'm no kid.. but have you had a moaning parent over your ear? ..if I brick it it would oh dear why did I bother? ..if he's happy let him be :P
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legendnexus:
Hello Rarz HD users,

I would like to have a device with hdmi port on it and GSM/ LTE capable. I was looking for the phones with these functions and I realize Razr HD has the radio to work with GSM bands, plus also has hdmi port on it.

But since the device is couple years old, I just wasnt sure if it is still worth to get this phone. I wonder if you are still happy with your phone, where it lacks where it exceeds. And more importantly, how satisfied are you with the development of the phone in forums. Also if you had any chance to compare Rarz HD with more recent phones, what are your opinions? Maybe comparing Razr with new low end phones, such as Moto G, or E or similar

Your replies are very valuable for me, I really appreciate your time for responding.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amedeh123:
Mine was recently lost, and i got another one. It is an excellent device, very worth it if you can find it for a decent price (I found a literally new one for about the price of a moto g)

As for ROM development, we got a great dev working on it, and other great devs who sometimes also mess with it. I am sure it will eventually get unnoficial android 5.0, and most cm11 nightlys are 100% stable on it.

It is 1000x better than the moto E IMO, but havent had much time around a G to say for sure, but i still like the rHD better.

If you are getting a xt926 in the US/vzw, beware, it may be permanently bl locked. If you are getting a xt925, no worries.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJCacher:
Ok, this is a weird one. On my Z3c, any shortcuts placed on a home screen using the Chrome browser's "Add to homescreen" feature only work if Chrome is not already running when the shortcut is used.

If Chrome is already loaded and has at least one tab open, tapping the homescreen shortcut only brings Chrome to the foreground, but no new tab is loaded with the web address specified by the shortcut.

Now for the weird part: removing updates for the Chrome app and reverting to the Chrome image shipped by Sony corrects the problem (at the cost of having to disable updates to Chrome in the Play Store to keep the problem from returning).

I've tried installing the Chrome Beta, but its homescreen shortcuts have the same problem.

I was about ready to file a bug report for Chrome, but decided to test my Nexus 5 to make sure I could reproduce the problem and, what do you know, the Nexus 5 doesn't exhibit this behavior.

Seems to be just the Sony running updated images of the Chrome app.

Can anyone else confirm not being able to get a Chrome-created web shortcut to work from the Sony home screens on the latest Play Store versions of Chrome, unless the Chrome app doesn't have any open tabs when the shortcut is tapped?

Google Now default email or phone number for a contact? Prevent "Which One" prompt

OK, so nearly all contacts in my phone have multiple emails and phone numbers affiliated. So, whenever I ask Google to send a text to Bob or to call jane, it always prompts me with "which one" and displays a list of emails or phone numbers.
