I'm curious too. Can you update the OP?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] David_Vaz:
The OP is not editable by me.

This is not my thread.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] squabbi:
You may want to even start your own thread! Because it's like you're hijacking it a little.

Dont get me wrong but I appreciate your efforts in the community but it may confuse users. If you can see what I mean.

Thanks!! [emoji4]
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] android_fury:
You posted a build, so I assumed you were working with Untouchab1e and had access to it somehow.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] David_Vaz:
My work is independent.

With the sources of Untouchab1e with changes.

I publish my builds in HTCMania.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] android_fury:
Cool. The more people, the better! Thanks for working on this.

okay david_vaz latest build the cellular radio instability still persist but I've noticed some inprovements from the previous one such as the wifi now can be ticked on or off.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] SweDunda:
Nice! Always glad to see devs spend time on free stuff and make people happie! More devs = Better! :)

Do you have some info what is working and not ect?

the only familiar issue so far is the cellular radio unstable

i would like to add the camera it doesnt work another issue

---------- Post added at 01:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 AM ----------

i would like to also add the low light issue, slight overheating,battery drain continuously, and location services.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] squabbi:
Thanks for trying it out and providing what works and what dosen't! [emoji4] Isn't the poor lowlight due to unlocking the bootloader?

no worries guys ill keep yah informed when i can right now i have to split most of my time to myself,family,friends,and to xda.

you might be right my friend
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
It has nothing to do with the unlocked bootloader. My builds do not suffer this issue and its probably because of him not configuring thermanager correctly.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] squabbi:
OK, thanks for clarifying. :) I just thought that it would because Sony claimed that camera functionality would drop? :o
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Camera functionality is indeed degraded on unlocked bootloader devices, but screen brightness is not :)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] squabbi:
Oh haha, I think we misunderstood! ;) The lowlight camera. Not display perhaps? :)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Well, Im pretty sure he meant the display because he doesnt have a functional camera in his build either :)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] squabbi:
Haha!!!! Oops, I see what I was confused about! I got too ahead of myself thinking the camera was working! :D

Thanks, it all makes sense now. ;)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Haha it happens. :)

At any rate, Im still working out some quirks in my new build, but Im kinda eager to get it tested so maybe Ill upload something in a couple of hours. Audio might be borked but it would be awesome if someone would be willing to try it anyway and see if there's any improvements to the cellular radio.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nolihowell:
Xperia Z3 D6603

i am willing to give you a feedback as soon as the new build arrives.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
New build is live. Changelog in the OT. While you probably wont be blown away at the changes, I've actually put quite a bit of effort into it so don't yell at me too much for breaking NFC in the process :P
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nolihowell:
its okay if the nfc functionality has beeen removed it was never a priority for me bcoz hell doesnt work for me when transfering files onto another device

bro just to let you know i always appreciate your work and effort putting this project alive so no worries if sometimes there are obstacles along the way just keep pushing
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nga⁴:
I flashed today's build, wiped everything to get a clean slate.

I'm still observing the issue where upon boot the cellular modem will connect to my provider (T-Mobile) for a few seconds then disappear forever. I'm looking at the logcat for the radio now, I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to this sort of thing though. It looks like maybe it is having trouble recognizing the SIM. Maybe I'm a moron and did something wrong. I attached the log file, I really don't know what information is valuable and what is just pointless overhead.

Command:

adb logcat -b radio -v time -d > logcat_radio.log

Let me know how I can provide better feedback.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] android_fury:
I want to help test your builds. Can you explain the best way to do it or point me to a resource?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Just to make sure, your model is the D6603?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nolihowell:
Xperia Z3 D6603

initial feedback from the new build of today cellular radio only works during first boot or reboot for several seconds then gone but everything else remains the same . no overheat good job.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Interesting. Now when you say "gone" does it indicate that the SIM isnt being detected at all? If you drag down the notification curtain (I forget what its formally called) what does it say in the cellular section? Again, I dont have an active nano SIM at the moment, but it seems stable and correctly shows my carrier label.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Well, Im assuming you know how to properly flash this. Then what you need is adb so that you can capture log output. Just let me know what specifically you need help with and Ill do my best.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nolihowell:
Xperia Z3 D6603

what i meant by gone is no service and thr icon shows sim card cross out eventhough i tried reinsert my sim and restart the device same effect only last for about few seconds
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
And you have the D6603 variant of the Z3? (Just making sure)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
[MENTION=6272667]android_fury[/MENTION] steps to logcat can be found in my sig
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] android_fury:
I'm not sure about logcats.

1 - Can I use an app on the phone or is it required to use ADB? An app would make it easier to record anywhere without having to be connected to the computer, but I don't know if it makes a difference.

2 - I'm not familiar with filtering the output. Do I just start recording, use the phone until a problem happens, stop the recording, and post the output file?

I don't want to waste time (mine or yours) recording useless logs. Let us know and some other people may become interested in helping too.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nolihowell:

[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] android_fury:
Thanks for the info. I'll get started right away.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
:good:;)
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nga⁴:
Yeah, I can't get a screenshot easily, but I have a D6603.

I'll re-flash and test again. In the mean time, is there any log files or specific tests I can preform to help you sanity check what I am seeing?
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Good to know its the D6603. I assumed it was but figured it was best to make sure.

Taking a screenshot would be valuable though. Just press the power and volume down buttons then use adb to pull it off. Also, do a *#*#4636#*#* and click "Phone Info". Would be great if I could get a screenshot of that as well. While you're in there, try playing around with the preferred network types and see if it makes a difference.

But still no mobile data right? Im gonna look at some libril stuff in the coming days to see if I can figure something out. Its bugging me that I cant get it working.

Thanks for all your help btw. Cheers!
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nga⁴:
Argh. I had a whole post typed up and hit the back button. Anyway, I'm pleased to help in any way I can, I also donated a few weeks back not that it matters. I'm just happy to give back.

I attached a screenshot of the phone settings screen, sadly I don't think thats very useful since the model number merely reads 'Xperia Z3.' I went ahead and ran an extra command which should probably help flesh out what you are looking for.

As for the *#*#3646#*#* part of your request, I'm baffled. I went to the android dialer and punched that combination in but it didn't really seem to do anything meaningful. Can you provide me with some commands or instructions? I did a quick google and kind of came up confused.

I actually did try messing with the preferred network settings before, thinking maybe it was just LTE screwing up. I saw very similar reactions on both 3g and 2g but I will retest to be sure. If the results vary in any way I will be sure to post again, otherwise you can assume the results remain the same. Of course that means no mobile data; I only really want to say that specifically because you asked.

Let me know what else I can do.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Thanks for the feedback, however you're running a very old build according to the screenshot.

At any rate, I made some interesting progress. I managed to get the open source libril implementation working. Ive uploaded a build with that now, so if anyone could boot it up and see if there's any difference, that would be great. If there isnt any, I think I know what the issue might be. Ill have to dig into some reversing with IDA, but maybe I can figure out what changes to rild I need to make.

Updating the OP now with link to the new build.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Totally my fault. Its supposed to be *#*#4636*#*# :) My visualisation of the keypad failed me a bit there. Sorry.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nga⁴:
*Facepalm* Right, I rolled back to the build from the 17th a few hours ago to tinker. I can upgrade and grab another screenshot.

I'll load up the new build in a minute.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] Untouchab1e:
Cool!

At any rate, I need to get some sleep now. But if people can test the new build and give me some radio logs, that would be awesome. Ive loaded up the proprietary radio stuff in IDA, so if I get some nice errors in the log I should be able to trace it down and pinpoint what the issue with the data is.
[Xperia Z3 Original Android Development] nga⁴:
I can totally manage getting you a log and some tests. What I gave you last time worked right?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmerohueso:
In previous iterations of Android, including KitKat, entering Car Mode would allow you to select a different Home Launcher to use while in Car Mode. As of Lollipop, I can still enter Car Mode but it never prompts for a different launcher and just uses my default one.

Did they remove this ability, or did they simply add a new <intent> for car mode launchers?

Are there any workarounds? Using my standard launcher with small icons is obviously not the best when my phone's in a car dock.

Edit: It looks like this does still work in this Lollipop ROM, which is now based on LRX21M (android-5.0.0_r2), but doesn't work on LRX21T (android-5.0.0_r6) or later. No idea what change caused this, though.

Edit2: Not sure why, but it's suddenly working even in the new versions. Oh well. Mysteriously solved.

Hi all,

I was trying to upgrade my Qtek9000 with an official ROM Updater, but my device went immediately into the Serial bootloader mode and I've not been able to do nothing to run out from this mode...

I've tryied the solutions suggested in http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=290234 without any luck...

The problem is that neither Mtty nor the UNI_exitbootloader tool are able to connect to USB.

I'm using no usb hub, I'm running on a Dell Precision M90 notebook, I've disabled USB connection in Activesync (4.2.0) and also tryied with a pc without activesync installed.

Any idea?

Thanks

Paolo

Are you on XP or Vista, and what version of AS/WMDC do you have?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pablo.mrg:
Hi,

I'm running Xp, ActveSync is 4.2.0, don't know what WMDC is sorry, can you please explain?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] apd:
Don't worry about WMDC - it's only relevant if you have Vista.

Are you using the proper cable that came with the Universal? Some cables don't have all the pins wired. That (or a broken USB port) would explain why your Universal isn't going to USB mode when you plug in the USB cable. Have you looked carefully to see if it changes from saying "Serial" to "USB" at the top of the Bootloader screen when you plug in the cable?

If it does change to "USB", I would try upgrading to ActiveSync 4.5 - go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx

Make sure you disable USB Connnections in the Connection settings before plugging in your Universal. Then try flashing the CE ROM again.

Good luck

BTW did you try doing a hard reset to get out of bootloader (both soft keys and then the reset button, then select 0).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] SpyderTracks:
Good advice, especially with upgrading to AS 4.5, it's a full release now on Microsoft Update site, and I have a feeling the WM6 ROMs may require it... Good luck with it, keep us posted.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] pablo.mrg:
Ok, thanks all!

This morning I connected the PDA to my office's PC with it's original cable and it instantly switched to USB mode...

So, I launched the upgrade and it's now in progress... let's hope!!!

It might really be a cable problem, yesterday night I tried with 2 different PC and a not original cable (I think it's my camera one...)

Thanks a lot, by now... I'll let you know own this story will end...

Flashable Modem Zips [All G2 Variants]

Should I flash

LGD802_10A-232_RADIO.zip or LGD802_10b-HKG-XX_RADIO.zip?

(I am assuming the HKG is Hong Kong, seeing as the other modems are named EUR and AME are likely Europe and Americas, respectively)

Well, all the modems which are starting with LGD802 are for the d802 ofcourse, If your phone came from hongkong then still, it's the D802 International model so you should also be fine with flashing all the modems, it doesn't brick your phone so just test which one works good on your phone :good:.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timmyd463229:
I have the LG g3 I've had it for a little over a week and I do like it I have it rooted with a custom Rom and kernel. But the note 4 is so much more powerful I feel like even without root right now I might like it better than the g3. I'm only really worried about the lag that some have on the note 4 I don't have any lag on the g3. Also I hear the note 4 battery is awesome I can get about 4 hours maybe a little more on the g3. And I'm afraid that after time on the g3 games won't be smooth with the 801 chip and I'm sure there won't be any problems with the note 4 and games or videos. If I decide I like the note 4 better I'm going in today and I'd like to hear any opinions you guys have. Thanks

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gcforreal:
I had a g3 briefly and I was one of the ones who felt like it was kinda laggy like the 801 was struggling with the 2k display. I can tell you first hand the note 4 is smoother and overall faster than the g3. Brighter screen and better battery life/gaming performance as well. Plus if you're the type to accessorize the note has many more accessories, docks, cases than the g3. Both are good phones but the note spanks it hands down in my opinion
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shawnten:
I had the g3 from the first day it came out till about 3 weeks after the bootloader got unlocked. note 4 is a better phone all the way through but if you want root or anything then you better not switch

[Omni Features Development] JoeSyr:
Is it possible to create a user-facing setting to manually enter the actual capacity of the battery in use? Perhaps under either settings->battery or settings->performance->battery? I've read through this and I think I have a decent grasp of all the moving parts behind the graph the system prints in settings->battery.

For my part, I've always used a larger-than-stock battery, and furthermore I use my batteries long enough that they start to show a noticeable dip in effective capacity. I'm assuming that if I could set the value manually (in the later case, I'm aware that there are apps that will try to calculate the effective capacity of an aged battery), my battery statistics would be a bit more accurate, especially the feature in lollipop that attempts to estimate remaining battery life. I'm aware that I could accomplish this be decompiling the framework and modifying the value in power_profile.xml, but that seems tedious to do if I'm flashing nightlies somewhat regularly.
[Omni Features Development] Entropy512:
Last time I checked, the power_profile number was not actually USED anywhere by anything. (This might have changed with Lollipop though, I need to check that... It could be, or it may be simply based on how fast the SoC percentage changes.)

All of the statistics are measured based on:

1) State of Charge percentages, which are always handled by the fuel gauge chipset itself. If these are inaccurate, something is wrong with your device's kernel or hardware.

2) Estimation of what certain components within the system consume when they're in a given state. e.g. the various components OTHER than total capacity in power_profile.xml
[Omni Features Development] JoeSyr:
Thanks for the insight. I also just picked through a few battery tester apps to try to gauge where my batteries are at, and one of them asked me if I wanted to use the system value (I'm assuming it read this from power_profile.xml, it was the incorrect stock value), or the actual value as reported by the battery(which was accurate).

So I guess the information is there all the same if anything wants to use it (assuming that the author knew what to use).
[Omni Features Development] Entropy512:
Hmm, so maybe the capacity in power_profile is used by some apps but not anything in the system itself...
