There is no 4.4.4 AOSP at this moment

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xGary:
So I accidentally got some water on my HTC One M7 and the Volume Up button went haywire and activates randomly. I disabled it by commenting out the lines of code in the files in system/usr/keylayout. Now I am looking for a workaround when I want to increase the volume. Obviously, there are the no-brainers like a widget or something, but I was wondering if anyone has any smarter ideas. I'm thinking of something like making double-tap volume down = volume up. Is that even possible? I have a Pressi knock-off but unfortunately, it never worked. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] bbarou:
That's it I'm really disappointed with this device.

First the touch problem.

Then there's also some weird problems with charging (touch response is close to zero when charging with some chargers, doesn't charge when using power hungry apps) and the sound delay.

And now there's some yellow spots showing on the screen. Mine goes back to Sony for warranty, but for those considering getting this device, I'd advise against it.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] meteor999:
I know im going to sound like a sony rep but. Sry to here this, I have the Z2 tablet since july, and yes touch was an issue when I first got it, but these issues have disappeared since software updates. As for the yellow tint I cant say I suffered from it. Never used mine while charging as generally I find the battery life great. Sony are certainly not perfect - show me a manufacturer that never has any issues...
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] bbarou:
Well , I pre-ordered mine and I got it since march. Touch has sure improved since then but it is still light-years behind my old Acer Iconia A500.

Just try it with a multi-touch test app. Even with the 4.4.4 firmware it still cannot register more than 3-4 finger consistently when you move them around.

My aging Iconia does not drop a single touch.

They appeared about 10 days ago.

Well I do. Especially when I play XCOM as it is a power hog. And sometimes the screen is completely unresponsive until I unplug it.

Did I say anywhere to stay away from Sony devices? What I said is stay away from the Tablet Z2. After almost 7 month of ownership I can definitely say if I could send it back I would.

The yellow tint issue is just the one drop too many. I was thrilled by the device at first (although annoyed by the touch issue): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51450622

Not anymore.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] fwp:
I am pretty sure the touch screen issue while charging is from a low quality charger. If you are getting a lot of AC ripple, it will completely flip out.

A good way to test this is to use an external battery pack. If the issue goes away, then buy a real high quality charger.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] bbarou:
Your post makes it sounds like I'm kinda dumb.

I tried with three different external battery packs and about a dozen chargers.

I experienced problems even with the stock charger. It is not even the best of my chargers for this device.

I'm not the only one with issues with charging:

[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Moscow Desire:
Op has a right to complain, as long as it stays within the boundaries of XDA rules. So I remind everybody to keep the peace. If the thread gets out of hand, it will be closed.

OP, it's very unfortunate you've had so many issues with your device. I hope you can get them sorted out with Sony. I would suggest constantly communicating with them, and perhaps they will take it back into service. At least that's what they should do, for devices with multiple issues. Take it up with higher management if need be.

So keep it civil folks. Please.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] jai23:
I had the yellow tint, Sony had my screen replaced only took 5 days.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] thunder141:
I think the problems are not usually for this tablet. I have mine long-time and no problem with touch, yellow tint or charging in normal . But charging only if I use docking station with those two contacts to charge the tablet. If on micro usb port with power adapter charging gets slower and the device sometimes is less responding to touch.

But I agree that if having those named problems, the tablet would get useless in a way and I would try to get it "corrected" by Sony or seller of the device.

Good to know.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] jewelkobayashi:
I bought it in March, the day it came out in HK.

After about a month, i realised that there were green dots, tiny ones on the edges of the screen.

Anyway, i made a post about it a few months ago, but long story short,

My screen got replaced in less than half a day. Dropped it off before lunch at sony centre with a repair center, and got it back in the same afternoon.

I am assuming that yours is still under warranty. Maybe you could do the same?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] RoberM:
I bought mine un June, and i don't have any of the issues people describe (usually with early units), my screen registers 10 fingers moving on screen consistently, one of the first thing i did after purchase was install the MultiTouch Tester app to check, also i have no yellow tint or anything like that.

I have been a Sony customer for a long time ago, and i know wht happens with Sony devices, first units always have flaws, i had one early Xperia Z, and i, and a lot of other early customers, got battery charging problems, dead pixels, dodgy loudspeaker, and stuff... The first PS3 fat models, i really doubt there is one left alive in the world. This time i waited some months before purchase the Tablet Z2, and it seems i did the right thing.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] SANGER_A2:
Seems like the op was trying to troll us, but didn't get much of a response! ?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] bbarou:
Yeah. It is. I sent it Thursday afternoon and it already came back this morning.

That was incredibly quick. I haven't had the time to play with it much yet to check if all issues are resolved but that sure is great customer service.

By the way my tablet was unlocked and rooted (I re-locked and unrooted before sending it back) but still under warranty :).

Are you trying to troll me?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Moscow Desire:
Only person allowed to legally "Troll".... is ME! :laugh:

Glad they hopefully got it fixed!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] bbarou:
I wouldn't say so. They changed the screen so no more yellow spot... but touch response feel even worse, charging problems persists.

I won't add any fuel to the fire , seems like some would rather I shut up, but I 'm terribly disappointed with this device. Great customer service though...

Is there any way to delete this thread?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] Moscow Desire:
Hey, nobody wishes you to delete the thread.

If there are issues, then they need to be known. I'm really sorry you have some problems. For the most part, it seems some folks don't have the same. But, that doesn't mean you "don't" have a lemon tab. And lemon products "do" happen.

If the tab is not charging correctly, then there's an issue.

Does it charge somewhat correctly from a USB Computer charge?

Sony, is probably one of the most consumer friendly organizations.

I can say, having owned an Iconia A701, is that when dealing with high performance tabs, the touch responsiveness, well, it leaves much to be desired. And at times, you had to tap more than once to get the response. NOT GOOD when playing a game.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] hasenbein1966:
In the first weeks, I also had the touch problems.

It was really a shame and totally unacceptable that Sony denied the existence of the touch problem and needed so long to release a fix.

The customer service of Sony is abysmal.

BUT: Since the firmware which fixed the touch problem I'm VERY satisfied with the tablet! It's simply a joy to use and to look at, and of all my devices, it runs by far the most stable and consistent and has by far the best and most consistent battery run time.

So I recommend it!

Is there any way to rotate the screen 180 degrees?

I tried few apps I found but non of them worked.
[General Topics] saabeirik:
Hi!

I've replaced the broken screen of my Z2.

My problem is that my back cover keeps getting loose.

I removed old adhesive, and put on a new back cover with new sticker. After a few days it started to get loose in the top. I thoroughly removed all of the sticker using citrus spray, and put on a new sticker, but the same thing happened again.

Should I use some sort of cleaner for removing "grease" to make sure the new sticker will stay in it's place? What do I do? :)

Thanks in advance! :)

[Zooper Widget General] Steve-Savalas:
Hi, I'm trying to create a widget/progress bar to show weekly cellular data usage. The built-in fields can give me my Monthly data usage just fine, by using #NTMTHM29# which resets on the 29th of each month. However, I'm going to be moving to a weekly data plan and I'd like to know how I could monitor my weekly data usage. I can see that there is an option to display "Cellular data usage current week" which I assume will reset every Monday, but if my data plan starts say, on a Thursday, how could I cover this?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry - this is in the wrong section (and I can't move it!)

A **NEW** feature has been added to the forum. It's called "SEARCH". It lets you find things from days-gone-by that could apply to your VERY situation! Also, a fantastic part of the site, the WIKI also has GREAT information. WIKI is like a big book of knowledge. It tells you how to FIX your brick without bugging the rest of us.

If you can't read the Wiki, and refuse to use the SEARCH button, NO ONE WILL HELP YOU FIX YOUR BRICK!

Oh, there is also one other way to fix your brick--guaranteed to make your phone stop being a problem for you... Take phone and all original accessories, and put in a box. Seal with packing tape, and bring to your local post office. PM me for the proper address to send it to (my home address, duh!) and I promise to take GOOD care of the phone! Expect it to be returned never. :p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] echoz:
Could you add in a bit for people who have not even done anything to check the wiki and use the search instead of PM/posting endless "how do i..." questions? :P
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] sub69:
Ok, go easy guys.

Firstly, I suspect the type of noob who asks these sorts of questions wouldn't stop to read any posts (including this one) before going straight to the "Start New Thread" button. So this is probably just another futile effort to educate ;)

And yes it's annoying, but we're all pretty tolerant around here aren't we? We will usually try to help noobs who ask a question, even if it's just a case of pointing them to the right page.

I find the best thing to do when confronted with a new batch of silly questions from lazy people, is to answer a couple and ignore the rest. Then log out, take a few deep breaths, and come back later!

That said, if there are any noobs reading this thread, please, please, please do use the search and the wiki before posting questions.

Read and Search.

Otherwise the forum becomes a congested mess of repeated questions over and over.

When wpbear told me 'Search', I didn't get offended:

The people (noobs) who just show up and post a question and get insulted when asked to read up, are like someone who walks into library and expects the people reading books are there to stop what they're doing and answer questions.

Your computer should not make ANY sound when you plug it in since this means you have not disabled Activesync's USB connection, please disable USB connections in Activesync... that means actually do it rather than pretend to.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] sub69:
Yes franula, basically untick every box in the ActiveSync "connection settings" menu, and click "Ok". You should NOT have the ActiveSync icon in your PC's system tray (next to the clock in the bottom right-hand corner).

Then put your Hermes into bootloader mode (by holding down the side "OK" button and the "Power" button, whilst poking "Reset")

Once you get the bootloader's tri-colour screen on your Hermes and you've completely disabled ActiveSync so that it is nowhere to be seen, THEN plug in the USB cable, and try mtty.....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] jasjamming:
You could have put it in a nicer way. If there are posts from newbies that are already answered in the wiki or in previous posts, we usually just point them to it.

[Xperia Z3 Accessories] Cryssie:
I ordered a black wrist lanyard to put on the phone. I did not have a lot of choice because they are very difficult to find in this country.

The lanyard seems so sensible to me! We put them on expensive camera's. Why not on expensive smartphones?

I cracked the screen of my GS3 and I am still furious at myself. My 2.5 yo phone which still has resale value is now worthless.

If I drop it with the lanyard on my wrist at least it will not go sailing to the floor or get lost at a concert.

Do you use a lanyard? What style do you have?
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] amaroth:
I am using the only one I've had for years. It is the one that comes with a sony pocketstation. It's been living on my psp for many years and now it's on my z3

I really wish they made a wrist strap or neck strap with the xperia logo on it.
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] subhani:
I used one with the Z3 for about a day with it hanging from my neck. It was going everywhere swinging and getting dipped in the sink so i got rid of it. Plus, I regularly use cases and I change them to freshen up the look but with the lanyard on, it was not possible anymore. So lanyard had to go. Still have but I do't use it no more.

I have used it with a phone in this fashion before, round my neck. Coincidentally it was the Sony w890 and a slick small device it was http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w890-3d-spin-2172.php

it was on a shorter lead so it wasn't so bad as swinging the giant z3, made of glass.
[Xperia Z3 Accessories] id3alistic:
I use this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Deff-Carbon..._Cell_Phone_Straps_Charms&hash=item3387cef356

Pretty much a lanyard, but it has a ring you slip into your finger instead. I've gotten use to it to the point where I slip my finger in automatically.
