hi, i have a question, i have helmi's 1.1 rom with 1.3 radio installed, and when i have my wifi turned on (and connected ofcourse!) it still connects to gprs when i want to send/recieve mail, and on occasion it tries it when i am on windows live messenger... when i try to press the abort button, it either ignores me and connects again to GPRS, OR my universal goes NUTS and usually ends up in me soft resetting the device to get the device working again... :(

Also when i'm in the today screen and i open up my comm manager and tap the wifi connect button and then close the comm manager window before it is fully connected to wifi, the device also freezes....

Any suggestions?

Met de vriendelijke groeten uit Nederland!

( greetings to all from the Netherlands!)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] ivorh:
It's windows live messenger that's doing that. The windows mobile team blogged about it they did it because "the radio module can be put into a low power mode but the wifi can't".

It should be a user configurable setting. but it isn't.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prat_merc:
Hi Guys,

I had rooted and replaced my stock S4 rom with a custom ROM ,as the stock S4 ROM was really slow. But now, the stock S4 Lollipop update seems promising , so I want to switch back to my previous rom.

I just have one question . After switching back to stock ROM , will I continue to recieve OTA updates from Samsung, or would I require to keep on flashing the latest ROM's manually ???

Thank you , it will be of great help if someone can answer this.

Can someone point me witch software i should use just to upgrade a Lg d280n, witch i think is a LG65?

The phone is locked to a carrier.

No need to root or whatsoever.

Any thoughts would be a major point.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] YuriPan:
My brother has a KFHDX 7", we got it last November-December, and I rooted it nearly instantly. It is in version 13.3.2.6 and I must have blocked OTA updates since it is still there. Back then I had tried to install gapps, the playstore etc, but I couldn't find a working method yet.

What I'm looking for is this:

- a way to downgrade the Amazon OS (if necessary)

- a custom recovery to install

- a tutorial to unbrick the tablet in case I brick it

- a way to install the GApps and make them work

- a list of custom roms available for the device. (It's name is "Thor", right? I couldn't find many) Aren't there any of the mainstream roms such as CM for it?

I have a KFHD 7" (2012 model) and I have flashed a custom rom so if I am given instructions I know how to make it work more or less, but I've been having some issues figuring out what is what in XDA in the KFHDX's section.

Thanks for taking the time to read this (and perhaps help me out)!

Hey XDAers!

I noticed that a lot of people were interested in photography with the Sony Xperia Z1. I'm a hobby photographer and a couple of people seem to appreciate my photography with it.

That's why I decided to share this with you:

A tutorial about the BASICS of your Sony camera phone

A tutorial about the more ADVANCED features

I hope you guys find this useful!

Happy snapping; try something different and creative; keep checking out that blog for more (general) photography tips and most importantly: have fun!

[Xperia Z1 General] Sindigo:
Nice tutorial. I wonder, does anybody tried SONY lenses? The ones which connect via NFC
[Xperia Z1 General] Hermantje:
Those Sony Lenses (QX10 or QX100, or the newer variants of which I forgot the model names) are separate cameras meaning that they have their own sensor and software.

It's therefore unrelated to the Xperia Z1's camera and algorithms of course. I'm not sure what you're asking about actually, with these lenses. You can always find people who have tried the lenses (or rather cameras) via Google, to see test shots for example. Again, they're unrelated to the device they're used with anyway :p
[Xperia Z1 General] rajmal:
Thank you for all the effort

Great articles Herman, you've clearly spent a great deal of time and effort - thank you for that.

My one gripe with the camera is the spot metering. It would be so good if you could touch the screen to say "meter on this" rather than in the centre. A bit like the touch focus. I guess you'd need some setting to say what to do if the user touched an area on the screen (meter or focus or both).

I previously asked Sony to tell me what was the difference between spot and center metering and they gave me the usual answer - please try repairing your firmware - which was pretty lame.
[Xperia Z1 General] Hermantje:
That's actually a hilarious reply from Sony, in my eyes. Kind of reminds me of the high 10 guy meme.

Thanks for liking the articles! Right now I feel like I've missed a couple of things however, like a more elaborate explanation on Night Mode versus other modes. On your issue: I'm more concerned with other issues like how you have to re-set the ISO after choosing a scene mode or not being able to set shutter speed or shoot in RAW, rather than the metering mode. It is of course a really useful feature to have, but it's a minor one compared to these others, in my opinion.
[Xperia Z1 General] devilkin:
If I were taking a guess about the spot and center metering is that it's the same as with my canon dslr. Only Sony left out an important keyword that describes it nicely : center WEIGHTED. Meaning that as opposed to average metering which takes the average of the whole frame it will rather focus on a circular section in the center section of the frame. Maybe somewhere there is a tech spec that can disclose how big an area that circle takes. Spot should do what it said. Takes a reading of the object under the meter area which can be the middle of the frame.

On a decent camera you would do a spot meter on the object, lock your exposure and then reframe your shot, focus and take the pic
[Xperia Z1 General] abood odat:
Thx man

[Xperia Z1 General] croash:
I'm quite frustrated taking photos near sunset, when the lighting is more favorable, because all of the light sources in the image create long streaks of flaring (as in the sample)

Is there something wrong with my camera?

I've tried adjusting EV, and scene modes, but the flaring is still there.

Any ideas?
[Xperia Z1 General] Hermantje:
You should be happy to know the solution to your problem is simple: clean the outer camera lens ;)

Light flares either occur because light hits lenses or reflecting surfaces in such an angle that it reflects undesirably onto the sensor, or more commonly because there are smudges on the lens which diffracts light as well. It should be #1 priority to clean your lens when you're the kind of person who puts their phone down on any dirty table in for example restaurants or bars. Also useful to note that thick cases with an opening for the camera keeps dust inside, also degrading your camera experience. Any camera gear should be taken good care of :highfive:

P.S. if you've cleaned the lens 50 times and the issue is still occurring, and you can't see anything on the lens itself, only then could it possibly be a factory flaw. And if so, did you see these flares from the beginning when you got the device?

P.P.S. Flares with smudges could be used in your favor to make creative shots too. Anything can be used creatively if you think creatively.
[Xperia Z1 General] croash:
Thanks for the reply. I'll thoroughly clean and retest.....fingers crossed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geifawkes:
Hello,

I'm not sure if this is the right sub-forum but I think this one isn't the worst choice.

I have a Radxa Rock Pro-Board running with Android 4.4.2. This board has GPIO-Pins for UART-Communication. I connected an UART-GPS-Device to it and can see incoming NMEA-Data on /dev/ttyS3. The Problem: How to configure Android to listen on GPS-Data on this interface?

I found some threads about GPS-Infrastructure in Android which says something about drivers (do I really need one in Android when it's a UART-one-way-Communication?), configuring the build.prop ("ro.android.gps.provider = ttyS3" which I did without success) and daemons like gpsd or glgps (which isn't included in a new build Android from radxa sources and is it really needed, or is this a can and not must have?).

So my question is, where does Android listen do GPS on default and how to change it to ttyS3?

Thanks in advance

[LG Optimus G (International)] cronociclope:
I imagine you're referring to 4.4.2, just to enable the development options you enter "Settings", then "About phone" and where it says "Build Number" press seven times and activate Developer Options.

For root the Optimus G with Android 4.4.2 can do it with IORoot or TowelRoot

Re-enabling 'Google (Now?)' button

Greetings...

I am using ExSlim v2.1 on Samsung S2+ GT-I9105.

After installing I noticed that the 'Google' button (the one on the stock ROM with a Google 'g' which used to launch Google Now on my device) on the bar which comes after 'long pressing' the Home button (with 'Recent Apps', Task Manager' besides 'Google Now'). How to re-enable this?

After reading some posts, in the file '/system/csc/feature.xml' I tried setting '<CscFeature_Launcher_DisableGoogleOption>' to 'true'. But no change.

I should add that I did make a few changes, mainly being removal of 'TouchWiz Launcher' and replacement with 'Google Now Launcher and certain other Samsung apps with Google Apps (Camera, Clock, Gallery, Messenger etc). Also made them system app. IMO these changes should not have any specific effect on the button issue. The bar was same with 'TouchWiz Launcher' and with 'Google Now Launcher'.

Thanks in anticipation...
