[Omni Q&A] mikeysteele:
Thanks for the update. I noticed there weren't any camera blobs in the source, so I assumed it wasn't as simple as just adding them in. I see on github the CM guys hacked their kernel to be able to use the old Jellybean camera blobs which looks painful. Hopefully Sony's lawyers aren't too obstructionist. Although to their credit the Sony stock rom isn't actually too bad. Nothing compared to Omni Rom though.
[Omni Q&A] Entropy512:
Yeah. They used a kernel backcompat hack, and are using old 4.3 rhine blobs because those are the last ones that were completely 100% DRM-free.

DRM issues have caused all sorts of problems with rhine/shinano cameras ever since 4.4 - Workarounds for many of these have been found, but not all. But the kernel backcompat hacks would still be needed (potentially multiple hacks for each device supported by the Sony AOSP kernel) and that gets nasty.

So the current plan is to have a unified set of sensor drivers in the kernel, with blobs provided as part of the Sony AOSP project. However I think this is going to be easier said than done - it's not just Sony lawyers, but Qualcomm lawyers. It really sucks that the entirety of Qualcomm's mm-camera subsystem is proprietary and there's no way for an opensource developer to write modules for it, which prevents any of the community side of the Sony AOSP project from working on some things. Otherwise it would probably be not too difficult to replace Sony's noise reduction algorithm (likely with a better one... Sony's NR algorithm got slammed for being too aggressive and killing sharpness over in a dpreview review... All that DRM protection for something some people actually prefer to have gone.)

Edit: And yes, Sony's stock firmwares are amazing. My Z3 holds the record for longest I've ever owned a device without even bothering to root it.

Another thing, my phone is the China Mobile version (L50t) and OmniRom runs perfectly on it, I just have to change the radio and wlan firmware. I can supply the required files and be a tester if you wanted to add official support for this varient.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You didn't answer the question of what firmware, and where did you get it (link it if you can).

Also, the title for your thread is close to useless. Its a Help forum section. So obviously everyone posting wants help. And your case is no more or less urgent than anyone elses. Try more descriptive thread titles to help keep the forum better organized, such as "Phone not booting after firmware update" or something to that effect. It may also help attract more attention by others that have the same issue, or have a solution.

So you flashed 3.x firmware, while still on 2.x stock ROM? You might have a mismatch between the ROM and the firmware.

Try flashing a different ROM, like Viper.

Also, boot into bootloader and tell me what it says for hboot and radio numbers.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
Hi all,

I received my Z3 in the mail from Tmobile Wednesday night and I spent most the night setting up and installing all my apps, and finished that process yesterday morning. I did charge overnight to 100%.

Yesterday, my battery only lasted till about 7 p.m., and I had to charge again.

Normally, I'd think this is amazing battery life because my Moto X wouldn't make it to 3-4 without a charge.

However, I'm pretty let down after hearing about the 2 day battery life, and not even making it through one day.

Granted, I am a pretty heavy user. But even then, this thing is supposed to get 12-13 hrs of video playback which is much more intensive than the texting/web browsing/etc. that I usually do. My battery lasted 10 hrs 30 minutes yesterday with very little video playback.

If you have some tips or suggestions, please let me know.

That's today's battery usage, with about 5 SMS sent, minimal browsing, and just checking out some stock trading.

Turn location services off, they were draining my battery.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
I turned Location services off shortly after you posted.

At 79% now
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Depending on your apps auto-sync can also kill your battery pretty quickly, I usually disable it. If you want to keep auto-sync go into "accounts and sync" and only keep your essentials on auto. Ex Contacts, Calender.

Use the WiFi calling option, because cellular is disabled and that saves a lot of battery. Also are you in an area of good reception?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
About an hour ago I deactivated Notification Mirroring through Pushbullet, deactivated auto-sync for soundcloud and yahoo.

I'm trying everything to see if it will change. So far, as of 6:05 p.m., I am sitting at 36% since 8:00 a.m.

Not bad, but a FAR cry from 2 day battery life..
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
I have enabled WiFi calling for the last few hours. It seems to have slowed the drain just a bit. I don't think I am getting good signal at work however (-105 dBm), and I am aware that it may be causing some significant battery drain.

I have also turned off Location Services, and enabled Stamina Mode since I hit around 70%.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
I forgot to say this but, give it a few charging cycles for the battery to be calibrated or do a full charge use till 0% and recharge to full and then use.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
Thank you, I will try that out as well. I know it's only been a couple of days, but other users are reporting astronomical numbers in battery life; something like 2-3 days without a single charge.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
So i put my phone to charge over night at 4 am and i woke up at 9 to find it only charged to 90 percent, and as of 9:37 it's still at 90 percent.

A disconnect and restart has not fixed it
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poldie:
It was never 2 days of screen on, video watching etc. I get 2 days of moderate use, 1 day of heavy use; it seems that's about par for the course for this phone. Smart connect is great if you don't need connectivity overnight; you can turn off data etc and have the battery practically untouched for 8 hours or so.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Even with average to bad signal I get about 5-6.5Hrs screen time with mostly surfing and a little GPS use.

What exactly do you do and what is your brightness setting?

Out of curiosity,are you using the google now launcher?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dukeofhentai:
Hmm not sure why got mine Wed. First thing I did was drain it fully. Then let it charge overnight. Over the couple days ive been disabling things i would never use. Today was the first real day I used it a lot and it did very well for me. Music, facebook, twitter, email, web searching while at a boring day of work on and off but all together gotta say around 2-3hrs. I make sure to clear multitasking of apps I dont want running. Only thing I keep on is email and sometimes twitter. Other then that most my settings are still stock.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
I see you have 2 signal bars, what does it show in status for signal strength (dBm/ASU)? That can dent your battery life a bit.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dukeofhentai:
only get that when i lay it down. That was at the end of the day of course at my house. I got wifi calling on and mobile data still going when at home because it doenst bother me, but my battery still so good. I didnt charge it till about 2am last night/this morning and it was about 40% battery still. Anyways the signal is 99-107 dBm
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
My signal is about the same as yours.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baliles:
I found the screen is the biggest consumer, but that stopped once I disabled the "Smart Backlight Control" under Settings, Display. It ran hot and drained super fast with that enabled. I'm a heavy user and since disabling, drain has slowed to what I'd consider normal.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
I posted the quoted text on Oct 25th...and since then, the phone has not fully charged over night once. Today, I woke up after 6 hrs to find it had charged to 84%. Yesterday, it was until 75%. Etc, etc. I'm going to try a different charger tonight to see if that will change anything...This is a pretty annoying problem on an otherwise great phone. Hoping the issue is the charger and not the phone itself. :(
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Did you try resetting it to factory defaults?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
I haven't tried...because it takes me a little while to set the phone up again. I am going to try a different charger and see if it changes anything tonight. If not, then I may have to go the route of a factory reset and hope that works. Any other suggestions would also be appreciated.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Only other thing I can think of is, maybe it overheated and stopped charging. My GS1 used to do that when I was studying in college where it was 100F+ in the summer.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
I just performed a factory reset after testing out another charger.

I had it plugged in for nearly an hour and it charged only 4 percent. I don't think it's due to overheating, as the phone doesn't feel significantly hotter when charging.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Get a replacement then, after a few more attempts at charging that is.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
Since last message, phone has not charged. In fact, it has lost 1 percent since plugging it in.

Taking it to Tmobile today.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
I was told I cannot exchange at a store even if I ordered there because it came by mail. Call TMO customer care and tell them to cross ship you a new one. They will ask if you want warranty or new one. Say you want brand new, if they ask for $50 restocking refuse it like I did and they will agree after a few mins. They will refund your tax charge and charge it again as a fresh order.

Having said that, it is on backorder at TMO, waiting for tracking still. I re ordered a new on yesterday.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dimitri_010:
Thanks for the tip, I'll give them a call in a bit and see if I can get it resolved. This could be the reason I'm having lower than expected battery duration as well.

Battery and gaming

Maybe I'm just expecting too much but what should I be looking at for battery life while gaming? One reason I bought this phone was for the extra battery coming from a Nexus 5. When I played Injustice Mobile a couple times I went from 100% to 89% in 10 minutes. I loaded it back up and played 3 more rounds (about 6 minutes) and lost another 5%. This seems terrible to me. Anyone else having similar results with graphically intense games?

Hello everyone, I bought the M8 yesterday from verizon and I updated it 4.4.4 which I may regret once I find out the answer to this.

Otherwise I would gladly pay the $25 for it.

Thanks,
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boe323:
Your going to have to wait I think, could be wrong though. All the rooting methods and s-off methods have been tweaked on the the earlier version of the phone software, so until someone finds a hole in the new ota I think I can honestly say no. Read through the Verizon thread, could be some clues there. You could try downgrading the os but then theres the new hboot. I don't know much about Verizons security, seems to be very weak compared to the international variety, they always get unlocked etc first from what I can gather. I could be totally wrong lol, there maybe an unlock hack available that works, never owned Verizon so need to research.

I used Sunshine on 4.4 (rooted), then FXZ'd to 4.4.4 and had to manually flash TWRP and then eventually root by flashing SU.

Cool, thanks for the replies. My OTA kept failing even with disabling all my root apps, Xposed, etc. I just used RSD lite with the latest .24 update, flashed TWRP, and rooted it, all good. Was very simple, so if anyone else is doing this and nervous about OTA's like myself, there's really no need to even use them if you don't want.

Hi,

I have htc 3600, HTC Mteor and SonyEricsson HBH-600!

I can't use headset with both devices at the same time (not same call, i think on normal use of two devices) , because headset will connect on first device and ignore other!

It's little bit unuseless for me and the same problem was with HTC & Nokia 6230, and qtek s200 & Nokia 6230, my previous combination!!

The question is which BT headset to buy, device that will be smart enough to disconnect from htc after call to be ready for receiving call from 2nd htc....

I have ALWAYS purchased spare and extended batteries for all my phones from Anker, all the way back to my Google G1 phone. They always worked great, and support has been fantastic.

http://www.amazon.com/Anker%C2%AE-Premium-Android-Samsung-Motorola/dp/B00N8W00DY/ref=cm_rdp_product

I needed a few extra MicroUSB cables for the car, and was tired of ordering the cheap crap from Ebay (which often take 3 weeks to arrive from China).

These Micro USB cables from Anker came as a set of 3. They are very well made (yes you can immediately feel the difference when handling them). They come in a nice box, with a little insert seeking feedback in the product, which is why I am leaving this review.

For me, the most IMPORTANT aspect is the fit... and this Micro USB cable from Anker fits my Samsung Note 3 like a glove! The is no wiggle when attached. This was something I always experience with those cheap cables. Often times my phone was not fully charged when I thought it was supposed to be because of a crappy cable not fitting properly.

The "micro" side of the cable is small, and fits nicely in the various phone cases I have for my phone, so absolutely no issues there.

The length is fine.. I wanted them shorter because they are for the car, and do not want extra long cables getting in the way when I drive.
