[Sony Xperia M2] ElIrvingsillo:
Heck yes :D I've been waiting for a custom ROM for my Xperia since I had it in my hands c': You are my hero <3 :highfive:
[Sony Xperia M2] peter-k:
Not "a custom ROM". It's OmniRom!

Probably the only one that could make me come back to 4.4. I had it on my V, it's the best for people who like a real slim and lightweight, yet fully functional and stabil environment.

I did not like 4.4 except of course the improved camera. Then no separate GPS switch, Google disabled browser text re-flow, etc ... no idea why they do that but I think that's a downslope.

OmniRom = up-slope.
[Sony Xperia M2] macabrocabral:
Will it be flashable for D2306? (LTE, Single Sim, South America model). I think its just bands are different from D2303. Can anyone confirm that?
[Sony Xperia M2] xLobito:
I made a thread in talk.sonymobile asking the same thing as you, and they told me the same, the basebands are differents. The software remains the same, 'cause there's no dfiference between LTE connection (I don't mean about basebands, just the connectivity), Dual Sim or no LTE.

Hi,

I have an Xperia ZR whose screen is partially non functional (the bottom three buttons do not work in portrait orientation). Recently I factory reset the phone (it was crashing), and it got stuck at the select language screen. (The "Done" button is at the bottom of the screen). Any tips on how I can proceed forward.

Thanks ;)

No not much. You don't feel heat. I am using official KitKat 4.4.2..

Hmm but mine won't get overheated... It reaches 106-110F after playing for an hour or so.. Its much but for heavy game its acceptable

[HTC One Mini] jcpearl:
My Htc One mini can't boot into android anymore :(

When i plug it in first i see is this:

After 30 seconds i see this:

Led is working its green. Thats all. PC is not finding a device. Can't enter fastboot or anything else.

Hard reset with button combination is not working.

What can i do??
[HTC One Mini] jollywhitefoot:
What exactly does it do when you try to boot? Do you know how to enter bootloader? What hard reset button combinations are you talking about? Were you 100% stock? Unlocked? Rooted?

What was going on before this happened? Taking an update? Normal reboot?
[HTC One Mini] jcpearl:
when i unplug it...it immediately fals out....nothing works without a cable. No led is burning.

100% stock.

I tried to unplug it, hold power+volume down, cable in pc, but nothing happen unless the charging is working like the pics i posted.
[HTC One Mini] jollywhitefoot:
Unplug it from everything and hold volume down + power for along time. It takes a while. If after like a minute of holding those buttons and still nothing, then I can't help you. Make sure to press vol down before power when you go to hold them down.
[HTC One Mini] jcpearl:
Absolutely nothing happens. No led no screen. Nothing :(

Why can i get a charge screen that loads the battery? But besides that nothing works ???
[HTC One Mini] jollywhitefoot:
I have no idea. I assume it's out of warranty?

You could try holding vol up plus power? that brings up different options than vol down. If that works maybe someone else here can help you.
[HTC One Mini] jcpearl:
Thanx for u help :)

I did every possibly combination for more than minutes but nothing happens :(

When i put it on my pc. My pc sees something but doesn't recognize a htc. Is that something? It tries to i install a driver but fails. Im on win 8
[HTC One Mini] jollywhitefoot:
Yeah. That's something but way over my head. That's like so you can do work on the actual processor I think. That's not going to be very diy, I don't think.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _delice_doluca_:
Hello everyone,

First of all;

I am from Turkey (where the taxes are biggest on the whole planet when it comes to electronics, thus making it the most expensive country) and right now I am working in Saudi Arabia (where there are no taxes at all). So, a good smart phone costs as half as in Turkey.

This is why I decided to buy mom and dad some new smartphones and than got confused. My original plan was to buy a new mid-range phone to my father (like Moto G 2013, mom is already getting and iPhone as she is used to them) but then I was advised to give Nexus 4 to him and get a new Xperia Z2 with a smart bracelet (the one without a screen). Estetically this seems like an upgrade as I have always admired and wanted a Sony device however being a Nexus owner has some benefits too.

So my questions are (I have tried to search as much as I could before I wrote them here);

1) In the Nexus world no matter what you do with your phone you can always revert back to stock and lock the bootloader again without leaving a mark thus letting you claim your warranty. I guess that is not the case with Sony phones as the "DRM keys are being lost", is it correct? Once my bootloader is unocked there is no going back (no way to backup and restore those keys or something)?

2) I am an AOSP and simplicty lover. My phone is mostly stock right now only with new Adreno drivers and Grenify. When I want to use custom ROMs I almost always go for the Paranoid Android and never regret it. This is how I would love want to use Xperia Z2 too. Simple, AOSP (os AOSPA) and up to date. But every AOSP based Custom ROM topic I have read seems like they have a problem with something. Is there any stable and "all working without adding much" AOSP ROMs? Or is there any reason for not being any? I used to use a Galaxy Note II and due to the closed sources somethings were never working as they should have. (seing official Paranoid team withdraw from the Z2 on their topic makes me fear)

3) Nexus family gains a new member every year but Xperia family gains one in every 6 months. Does this couse Xperia phones be abandoned from being supported easily (This will be my first Sony device)? I am not expecting a Nexus-like community as they are always the most crowded but at least some continuing popularity would be great :) (I think to answer this question of mine I should have followed the previous Xperia Zx phones)

4) What are the most common problems of this device? Which things should I pay attention to before and after I buy the device.

5) What are your advices about everything that I should have but missed to ask here?

6) Thank you very much for reading.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
1. you can backup your TA where your drm keys are kept, you can restore them later, you can also completely reset your device to a factory state and once done you can restore your TA safely

2. the device has just come out so non-stock custom roms will have small problems here and there, either stay with stock or use cm11 official which is literely aosp somewhat

3. xperia is changing to 1 year plan, the xperia Z2 has support for 24 months and lets not mention sony is giving android 5.0 to all xperia Z flagships

4.my most common problem is overheating. i use the phone under extreme load but ive never found a device that doesnt under my use

5.advice,

flashtool is can be used to restore a factory including relocking your bootloader

you can use the same tool that you used to backup your TA to restore it too

6. your welcome

7. if i missed something just reply with your question
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _delice_doluca_:
Quick answer tells a lot about this side of the town :) thank you.

one more question; is CM stable for daily use? I mean, all the necessary parts are published by Sony and developers got control on everything without needing workarounds? I remember Note 2 never being stable on the camera and mic side and also draining battery..
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
official CM11 is stable enough, ive had no problems at all, infact im using it now

there are no problems at all exept a small delay when opening the camera, its a second or two

developers usualy make work arounds for things, the camera was one but it works fine now on official CM11

[Nexus 6  General] devesh38:
N5 didnt have it, although kitkat supported it. I thought google will make it norm with next nexus.
[Nexus 6  General] _MetalHead_:
Well you thought wrong, apparently.
[Nexus 6  General] arcanexvi:
I think that they're in the same boat as me in thinking it more as a novelty feature. My notes have had it as well as my G3 but they're all pretty weak on the software side and the blaster is always finicky on range and the angle at which you point it. If you want a real universal get a normal remote with a proper blaster. Unless you're trying to show off or screw around with the TVs at the bar, it's kind of pointless.
[Nexus 6  General] amebiasis:
I use mine alllllll the time. I have 2 kids and 2 dogs that love to play hide and seek with them lol. I literally have all my TV's, blue ray/dvd players, cable boxes, and sound systems programed on my Note 3 and love it! I also travel (I literally am gone 6 months+ a year) and much prefer my phone over most hotels eco-remotes. I would have loved to seen this as a feature personally as well.

[Nexus 6  General] _MetalHead_:
I liked having one on my HTC One M7 but barely used it after the first week. I also had one on my GS4 Active, but the remote software was nowhere near as good as HTC's so I never used it. It's not something that I've missed since getting rid of those phones. It would be cool to have, but it's more novelty than anything.
[Nexus 6  General] neyenlives:
I have it on my Note 3. I used it once, much like multi window, to be able to say oh neato. Then never used it again. I'm glad they didn't waste time or money putting it into the N6.

There was a funding available for an IR blaster that plugs into the 3.5mm headphone jack on any phone.

[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
might look into that sennheiser one but do you know of any that connect to your phone via bluetooth or wifi and can transmit IR signal? I'd like to avoid having to attach a device to my phone everytime i want to use the TV. Chromecast can turn on one of my TVs but the other it can't. I wish they'd put a turn off feature in the chromecast.
[Nexus 6  General] Marcellus1:
Interesting that your Chromecast will turn on the TV, but you are looking for a way to turn it off. I've got a smart TV that I can't turn on by Chromecast or otherwise from my phone but I can turn it off!

I recently got a Google cardboard VR package from tinydeal that I was satisfied with. I ordered the emitter from them--it's less than a dollar, with free shipping, so I'm not out too much if it doesn't work out for me!
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
how do you turn off your tv using the chromecast? ON my samsung, when I hit the cast button from any chromecast compatible app, it automatically turns on my tv and changes my input to the chromecast input. I just have no way of turning off the TV after i'm done watching.
[Nexus 6  General] Marcellus1:
Sorry for the confusion--I don't turn it off with the Chromecast, but my TV remote control app has a power off option that I can use to turn off the TV with my phone. My reference to chromecast was in turning it on. I've got an LG TV with Simplink, which is a modified version of CEC that's needed to turn the TV on. Unfortunately one of the modifications makes it so turning a TV on from an HDMI port is not supported.
[Nexus 6  General] Jeimygirl:
I was hoping for a big $650 phone it would have an IR too. Closest I have now is my X1 remote for Comcast, but that only controls the box, not the TV. The X1 remotes have a bluetooth? connection though so the remote can be under your pillow and it still works. Not sure if it's BT though.

Hi everyone,

This morning I have rooted my s5 mini for the first time. I wanted to root my device because I don't like the TouchWiz-interface and wanted another ROM on my device. I've been looking for a ROM, but I don't find one. I don't understand why there are no ROM's for such a popular device. It's the first time I'm working with ROM's, so if you answser, please hold it a little bit noob-friendly ;).

There are no ROMs because the device is still new and it takes a while for devs to even reach an experimental stage for ROMs on such a new device.
