Does the standalone GPS only function when Bluetooth is off? or does it work w/Bluetooth on? Just wondering as this would defeat the purpose of putting music on the watch going for a run and listening through a bluetooth headset.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NikhilDj26:
Hi Team XDA,

I had Flashed CM10.1.3 on my GT-N7000 Few days back. m not sure whether this is an issue but i definitely not faced this on my TouchWiz stock rom.

1. When i play song through Appolo player, it keeps playing and not stop when i receive a call. (my phone is on vibration mode)

is it already known issue ? or do i need to flash rom again?

Thanks,

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Entropy512:
I am 99% certain the T-Mobile Z3 will not be unlockable. Not very "un-carrier" of them.

HOWEVER:

For the first time in North American history, in addition to being available via carriers, a Sony flagship is being offered unlocked in a timely fashion in North America. If you're in the USA (which, since you're asking about T-Mo USA, I assume you are), you can get a SIM-unlocked (and hence bootloader-unlockable) Z3 at http://store.sony.com/xperia-z3-lte...atid-All-Unlocked-Phones?vva_ColorCode=FFFFFF

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] MyPeople:
What toolchain are you guys using to compile the kernel of https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel ?

could anyone compile a kernel with as modules and share the hid-sony.ko and hid-dr.ko module files?

I think that would help to have Remote Play PS4 in non Z3 and Z2 devices.

the option to compile those 2 modules as separate modules is in menuconfig > Device Drivers > HID Devices > Special HID Drivers and then

M in DragonRise Inc. game controller

M in Sony PS3 Controller

it would be much appreciated.

I would even pay if someone can share me those 2 files from the Z3 kernel source (or Z3 phone) as I tried to compile the kerel to get those files but I'm failing like a mother****er :(
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
use http://developer.sonymobile.com/knowledge-base/open-source/open-devices/

br

J
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Entropy512:
I'm 90% certain those modules won't be useful for pairing PS4 controllers to non-Z3/Z2 devices. Given the commit history of the modules (hid-sony hasn't been touched in 3-4 years), it appears that the Z3/Z2 is handling Dualshock3/4 support in userspace and not kernel-space (just like the Sixaxis Controller app for DS3 controllers was userspace-only)

However backporting hid-sony from 3.17 might make it easier to pair DS4 controllers to devices without userspace assistance. But that's offtopic for the purposes of this thread.

3.17 has kernel-space Dualshock 4 support, the 3.4 kernel here does NOT have kernel-space DS4 support.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] MyPeople:
Hi. I finally managed not to compile the kernel (using latest sony sources) but to compile the modules I mentioned

But it didn't improve anything and I I'm not experienced enough to continue further.... so hopefully some real dev like Entropy512 will feel motivated to port the ps4 remote play gesture with DS4 pairing for any android phone xD

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
just compiling kernel modules will not enable ds4
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Entropy512:
Yup.

You're probably already familiar with all the details, but for other users here are my observations. This will be my last post in this thread on this topic as it is going offtopic for this thread.

Dualshock 3/4 support can be implemented either entirely in userspace, or a mix of userspace+kernel. It appears to not be possible to implement it purely in kernel - stuff like hid-sony requires help from the Bluetooth stack to handle some of the idiosyncracies in pairing protocols and such.

Pure userspace solutions:

Dancing Pixels' Sixaxis Controller (Dualshock 3 only)

Sony Z2/Z3 Dualshock pairing (DS3, DS4)

Userspace+kernel solutions:

BlueZ bluetooth stack + recent hid-sony (DS3, DS4, requires hid-sony from a MUCH newer kernel than 3.4 - Sony's kernels do not have any of these backports which is why I've marked their solution as being pure-userspace) - Note that Google replaced BlueZ with bluedroid with 4.2. BlueZ has been working on trying to provide a drop-in replacement for Bluedroid since then, and is pretty close. If someone used the BlueZ stack + hid-sony, they PROBABLY could get DS3/DS4 pairing to work. Problem is, who knows what other BT functionality that would break. :(

Another option would be to add DS3/DS4 pairing support to bluedroid - not sure how hard this would be

hi [MENTION=359497]jerpelea[/MENTION], I think there might be a typo (or copy paste error [emoji12]) in the kernel building instructions eg: make "" instead of "see below"? (meaning I'd put make shinano_leo_defconfig). or not?

quick question, Im currently building kernel 23.0.B.0.384 ~ what will this boot with? or should I be building for the firmware I am running (23.0.A.2.93 / sometimes 105)? kernels arent opened sourced before the matching firmware are they?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] jerpelea:
thanks for your notice

i will fix monday

this thread is about a new kernel inteneded for opens source projects

is is not intended to follow sony releases of version numbers and is offered in sync with blobs

i hope (and i know that will not happen) that this will stop the stupid race against latest build number, firmware, or kernel build

br

J
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] iBuzman:
thx, I was just "learning the kernel process" prior to aosp fixes coming through and was curious about numbering and how these stock based numbers related to what I was building (as opposed to participating in version race). [emoji2]

sorry for noise

while on topic

I believe Sony's vision is unique and should be followed by other

vendors and also individual ROM maintainers:

Not only does Sony provide source and binaries, but, IMO more

important: Sony also provides a working recipe for -building- such

binaries from source. I could easily build ROM and kernel. And I am a

noob.

Here I believe any custom ROM provider can learn a lesson: is the ROM

really free software just by having a public github repository?

In general: is free software free only by making source free?

I personally believe not. Not sure what Richard Stallman thinks...

One must also provide proven recipe for building valid binaries from

source. Especially given the increasingly (nice) distributed nature of

repositories.

And Sony does all that : RESPECT ! RESPECT !

Many (agreed particular) ROM makers hide -HOW- to build the ROM by not

maintaining and providing build instructions. I speak from experience.

Perhaps to expect money from their personal kept secret?

But that is not the spirit of free software... One can earn money in

all openness as well.

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Entropy512:
It is unlikely they'll ever do it for production releases (stock OTAs). Most of what's being done here is to lay the groundwork for having a single kernel support as many devices as possible - and that required forward-porting older devices to the 3.10 BF64 baseline required for newer devices.

No OEM, not even Google, has deployed 3.10 in production on an 8974 device.

the solution is simple.

go to this site;

http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m3100unlock.php

buy the key file for your device and download the unlocker.

follow the instruction on the site to unlock your phone.

choose a rom you want from here.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades

just burn it.

i am not sure if you can change the radio rom on your x01ht.

read and search in this site more. everything and every detail has been already discussed here.

even the bootloader 1.09 is downgraded using imei-check's website ????

I dont think so.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
the answer is YES. actually, the latest version can unlock x01ht with BL1.09 downgrading to BL1.04 so that you can even burn any rom you want.

If there any other software can also do the same but is free?

Pls tell me ~thx

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] qtotter:
the latest unlocker for tytn from imei-check downgrades bootloader to 1.04, and then unlock the phone. when it's done, the bl version is still 1.04.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] awh_tokyo:
Not yet.

If you want to SIM-Unlock your phone, you'll have to cough up the 20 pounds. A small price to pay, IMO.. I paid it back before pof's free unlocker was available, but the 20 pounds was a lot cheaper than having to buy another phone that would work with my Globe SIM-Card.

If you only want to change your ROM without sim-unlocking your phone, there is a way to do that, but you will be violating copyright, and I assume that nobody will be willing to send those files.
