When connect magnetic charger or any charger in usb port i hear a notification sound .

Any methode of how to mute this connectiin botification sound?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ben Ling:
look at Settings>Accessibility>turn off the play sound after full charge

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingsman1:
I know our Xoom is getting a bit long in the tooth, but it still is one of the finest equipped pieces of hardware out there. I've been using the Omnirom 4.4.4 iteration for many months now, and love it.

How many tablets can you name that have external sdcard,HDMI, and USB capability besides the normative features most tablets have.

I think the Xoom might just might have a very good future with the next iteration of Android, Lollipop. I'd love to be able to

work on this, but if I did it, I'd have to find someone who would loan me a Xoom they have laying around unused for an extended period of time.

I don't know, but the more I think of it the more excited I become.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cameron581:
That's not how it works...... You are a user not a developer.... I will see what can be done when sources come out but no this is a scam! Why get a Xoom if you already have one? From a account with no rom threads started
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingsman1:
Wasn't a scam Cameron. I have 1 Xoom that is my primary computing device with anything having to do with mobile devices. I will not have it's useability compromised.

By the way, long ago I wrote code for the Atari ST, STacy and Falcon. In the last few hours I have been able to get a second Xoom from a friend locally (he's not using it, and thought it was bricked-It wasn't, just needed help-I've got working) once I get my friend's Xoom up to speed and brush up on my coding skills I should be able to help.

Honestly, I'm 74 years old and just tired and busy enough that I'd rather not take away from my limited time to become a developer again. At this time I'd like to just be a user and return my friend's fully working Xoom to him

Cameron, It seemed like most of the developers had just gone into hiding and I was hoping to generate interest from the community..

You don't know me, or really know much about me. If you did, you'd know that I wasn't attempting to scam anyone. In fact, saying that my goal was to scam is almost criminal and libelous, but I'm not one to easily take take offense.

Just please don't do a rush to judgement again. Once you make such statements they aren't easily retracted.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. Your friend,

Rob
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brewer75:
I am simply a "user" also but I can attest to the fact that I have seen numerous posts from Kingsman1 in other Xoom forums and he is always there to help others with questions or problems they are having with their tablet.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingsman1:
Thanks for the vote of confidence my friend. The Lollipop Software Development Kit (SDK) is out there. I think that I'm going to hide and watch(though I am available at any time) as far as development is concerned. There are many of us who need help, including me from time to time. I'll go back to helping when I can.

Blessings to all,

Rob
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jacklad:
And add another vote from me - I have seen and read many a helpful Kingsman post in these forums - I wish I had some sort of useful skills other than flashing other peoples hard work or I would help - hope this generates the desired response from some other motivated developers - best of luck Sir Rob -

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kingsman1:
By the way,

I do have a second Xoom of my own not, and am running Omnirom 5.1.1 Alpha on it. At the moment, I'm looking to see what it can, and can't do. I hope to be able to help Schischu develop this into a stable, and very complete Rom now. Even so, this alpha is very polished, fast, and smooth.

I think we're gonna love it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rcheung28:
Hi everyone,

My Nexus 5 isn't getting recognized by any computer. I've tried plugging it into both Win 7 and Win 8.1 machine using different cables (stock N5 and stock N4 cables), it doesn't show up as a media device in Computer anymore. You can see that in device manager, it shows up as Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). I'm unable to update the driver to the original Google USB Driver; even if I do it manually, it says the latest drivers have already been installed. I've also tried to uninstall and remove the device from device manager, restarting both phone and computer, nothing worked. Any kind of input is appreciated.

Edit: I've also tried connecting as both MTP and PTP modes.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datagubben:
I had the same problem and did same as you. I has something to do with USB-divers on the computer. So I did a dirty trick: I installed Sony PC Companion and rebooted (I know, seems strange) and now my Nexus 5 shows up on the desktop. :p

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it and it still showed up as Unknown USB Device (even after I uninstalled it from device manager).
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfleegle:
I'm in the middle of a huge dispute with Squaretrade over my Tab S 10.5. I sent mine to them because it fell and the screen stopped working, and there was a small crack in the glass. Squaretrade said it's more expensive to fix than to replace the tablet. I seriously doubt that.

Does anyone have any idea of the wholesale cost of a replacement screen and glass for the Tab S 10.5, or a way of finding out? I want to have ammunition for when I talk to them next.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
From what I heard the glass is part of fhe screen so if you break that then you have to replace the screen. As for pricing it should cost half the price of the tablet. I cannot comfirm this and someone correct me if im wrong. I think there was another thread about a screen repair and would suggest you checking it out. Hope this helps.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinsb:
Don't forget that the screen is 'bonded' to the digitiser as well (can be removed using heat) but while I'd do it on say an S3 or S4 phones I wouldn't want to do it on something as large as a 10.5" screen....too much chance of glue touching glue.

I know that from Samsung in the UK a complete Screen and Digitiser replacement was £110 ($170ish) if bought in units of 10s for the S4, I wouldn't be surprised if it was double that for the Tab S 10.5".
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigorajao:
The screen is almost always the most expensive component of any portable device, especially tablets and smartphones., ESPECIALLY AMOLED. Also consider the fact that the AMOLED + digitizer + glass are fused into one piece to make it as thin as possible, so they'll have to replace the whole assembly. Add shipping and labor, and the cost is almost that of a new device.

When my Nexus 10 screen cracked, I had estimates from 4 different shops and decided to sell it for parts.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamael71:
in some countries (Italy), if a service center samsung, just will change the glass, may loose the grant to repair samsungs. They "must" change also the touch panel.

You have to pay per "Nachnahme" with the Deutsche Post (Pay at the door, if you get the code delivered). This will not work if you are not in Germany.

Hi everyone, this is a copy/paste from Z3 General Forum. All credits to its OP
[Xperia Z2 General] Bäcker:
this only works with a pressure sensor (barometer) - does the Z2 have one?
[Xperia Z2 General] kirvenagu:
yes z2 have pressure/barometer sensor.
[Xperia Z2 General] Bäcker:
then you can use this test for Z2 as well :)
[Xperia Z2 General] mariosraptor:
It works. Pressure rise when pressure applied with closed flaps.

Once I open a flap and again apply pressure then nothing happens. Pressure stays the same. So, mine is waterproof. Yeeey
[Xperia Z2 General] nariwing:
I tested,

start value: 1009

compress and hold: rise to 1020 and back to 1009.

release: fall to 1005 and back to 1009

It looks like mine has fault? :(
[Xperia Z2 General] ArbiterGR:
I get the same reading. it starts at 1014 and goes all the way up to 1022 when i touch it with my thumb, but it automatically goes back almost instantly with my finger stilll pressuring on the screen. If i open the flaps, then the sensor's reading wont change. I'm clueless!
[Xperia Z2 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
Excellent! Thanks for the tip! Everything is perfect with my device!
[Xperia Z2 General] mariosraptor:
It means it's working cause pressure gets stabilized
[Xperia Z2 General] nurps:
Same here pressure equalizes after a second. So its not really tight?
[Xperia Z2 General] ArbiterGR:
oh ok! thanks! Yay i have a waterproof phone!
[Xperia Z2 General] adam_purkis:
That's what I wondered, if the pressure goes back to normal that means it's escaping somewhere? Unless it's stretching somewhere else in the phone I guess? But mine does the same, pressure increases then normalises, then drops lower when you let go before returning to the original value. So that means it's water tight?
[Xperia Z2 General] zegun:
wow never realized Z2 have this sensor o_O

i remember my Z1 didn't have one, it just said "This feature is not supported"
[Xperia Z2 General] knoxploration:
For me, too, the pressure rises, then falls back to the original pressure. Then if I let go, the pressure falls, then rises back to the original pressure.

However, this is not a meaningful test, although it gives at least a vague indication. The seals are not intended to stop the phone being able to equalize atmospheric pressure with the outside world, they're designed to stop water coming in. Most likely, when the phone is squeezed the increase in pressure pushes the seals out just ever so slightly, leaving a gap through which pressure can slowly correct itself.

A slightly more meaningful test would be to compress the phone with the doors open, then seal the doors with the phone still pressed, and then let go so that the first thing you're doing is creating negative pressure in the phone, not positive pressure.
[Xperia Z2 General] sa3d12:
well maybe thats not a proof ... i bought this device a week ago and from day one i submerged it three times into water to test is it really waterproof or not and yes it has done the job :D...

but just trying that pressure test in normal atmosphere it equalizes after a second

while underwater i tested and the pressure increases but doesn't equalize.. so thats the point of waterproofing..

its not air proof !!

hope that could be useful for anyone ... just don't panic if in normal air atmosphere the pressure goes back to normal
[Xperia Z2 General] naeem123:
My pressure just stayed at 1005. I pressed the screen and I pressed the back nothing changed :( I think it's because I changed the back plate recently...

Very Cool! I was afraid to dunk mine before, because a demo unit Sony sent to one of my blog partners died when submerging it underwater. This of course made me a little weary, however I did end up dunking it with happy results.

Back to the test in question, I did as one of the other posters mentioned. I did the pressure test, and sure enough it rose in numbers as it should, repeated the test with one of the flaps open, and the pressure didn't move. This appears to be legit, and a really useful tool I'll happily pass on.

Tested on a Canadian Z2.
[Xperia Z2 General] nreuge:
Yes, this test does not mean anything but "

airtight

"

from inside to outside

.

And water viscosity is 50 times higher than air viscosity!!!

Iphone 6 is not waterproof but I'm sure it is "modelling clay-proof"!! :D
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
This test isnt valid neccisarily

You cant mesure water resistancy from presure on a single sensor :/

Edit# ive been proven wrong
[Xperia Z2 General] RedSkyRoad:
As someone that works in a laboratory I can attest to the fact that if the air pressure raises AT ALL from the inside when pressed, you can be sure that a higher viscocity liquid like water pressing with force from the outside, would most certainly not get inside.

Pressure from outside forces the flaps-seal tighter. If air pressure manages to build from the inside (even just momentarily), I would take comfort that my phone is waterproof...
[Xperia Z2 General] goldys.69:
When i press on screen the pressure increases by 5-6 units..then again comes down even though i did not release the pressure from the screen..

Is this ok or not

Pressure record

I can add a record of the pressure sensor during the test described here: (screenshot)

img5.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/wassertestalxyqg7jv2.jpg

(Sorry, I am not familiar with including pictures and I couldn't find instructions)

The picture gives an impression of the process: Original pressure recovers following an exponential law with a half time of about 0.5 s on my device. This is consistent with intruding air.

[Xperia Z2 General] Bn Waheed:
So when if the number changed the phone is ok?
[Xperia Z2 General] .romdroid.:
That video is not entirely true if you read the first posts in this topic. When you put pressure the value should rise and then decrease. If you put pressure and nothing happens that is when you don't have a waterproof phone. That is what I understood.

[Xperia Z2 General] ratati:
With your finger try to cover the three holes that are on the bottom of the mobile phone right next to the right column. Do the test again and keep up the pressure. Mine mantains the same pressure till i release the the finger.
[Xperia Z2 General] danieldp1990:
mine does the same thing.
[Xperia Z2 General] Linuxslate:
You can do lots of cool stuff with this.

1st of all, if there is basically any difference between when flaps are open and closed, your phone is probably OK with at least minor water.

Try cleaning seals -- perhaps with the corner of a sheet of paper, or with an alcohol wipe (Obviously, do not get water near your phone when the doors are open). Let the alcohol dry before closing doors. It made mine go from about 1-2 seconds to equalize to about 3-5.

Ride in a elevator -- notice the pressure difference.

Same for a car trip in the mountains.

Look at the day-to-day change. Pressure goes Up, it will be Clear, Pressure goes Down, it will (may) Rain (or at least be cloudy) (In most environments).

Ride in a plane -- you can see the cabin altitude. The higher the pressure (middle of the flight -- cruising altitude), the better the plane's pressurization system. (Maybe they should clean the plane's door seals)
[Xperia Z2 General] ratati:
I heard somewheres to not clean up the flaps with alcohol since the rubber get damaged over the time.
[Xperia Z2 General] Linuxslate:
Thank You. Edited post.
[Xperia Z2 General] Opustenooo:
I tried with CPU-Z in sensors section, works the same.
[Xperia Z2 General] Thepho3nix:
Hey i got some inquest. My Z2 pressure results changes per day. For example: I did the pressure test two days ago, and pressure was 1010,xx millimeters. I checked today's value and were 1007,xx.

When pushing gently on front and back covers those values rises then decreases and restore again to normal.

¿ Is this behavior normal between days?

I'm confused and a bit scared boys. Thank you!
[Xperia Z2 General] Linuxslate:
Yes, this is normal. It is a change in atmospheric pressure. --- On a clear, sunny day, the values will tend to be higher. On a cloudy day, or rainy day, the values will be lower (or days when it is changing from clear to rainy).

You can also check your local weather to see if your values follow the trend in atmospheric pressure.

For example, right now where I live, a cold front is approaching. Mine shows ~1009 mb, and should be decreasing. Tomorrow, after the front passes, and it is clear and colder, I would expect a higher reading.

Note that you have to check it when you are at the same height above the ground. Elevation effects it even more than changes in atmospheric pressure.

So if you where at ground level the first day you checked it, and then several floors up in a building when you looked 2 days later, that would explain it, too.
