[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cristi10:
Hello, i have a gs4 i9505 and i've started to encounter this problem. Everything works normal for a few days than out of nowhere, when i play a video (from youtube, internet, internal memory) it freezes and audio keeps playing, sometimes the screen turn green. And i can't unlock my phone for several minutes. The only solution is to reboot my phone but after some time the problem appears again. What do you think is happening? Also, i should mention that i am on stock firmware ufnc4 and not rooted.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cristi10:
Anyone?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cristi10:
Yes the code for firmware version. My version appears, i've made an update and now i am on ungng8.

NOTE-This method cannot hack paid app and games it only hack free apps and games

This method can only obtain free apk file of play store

I am sharing a method to hack apps and games and get their apk files so that you can install them on multiple android phone

This is helpful if you want to install same apk to another android without downloading it from play store.

First of all Download apk downloader from google play store and open it

Then login with you gmail account

There is one search box click on it and search apk file you want

When apk file is shown in the list then click it and it will ask you to download apk file Download it Once it is downloaded then open it and enjoy it
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gil_T:
Hi guys, i hope you can help me with this one.

I bought a D802 from AliExpress, but when i tried entering my sim i found out it couldn't get any signal even though it works just fine on my nexus 4.

i tried 2945#*802# to check the sim unlock process and got the next message: "The phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked".

I can't enter an unlock code even if i want to. It doesn't give me the option. i can only dismiss the message.

I tried factory reset, rom switching, and radio flashing, none of them worked.

I opened a dispute in Aliexpress, but in the meanwhile i want to try and unlock it anyway, and maybe save the trouble of buying a new one and wait for a month all over again.

Can anyone help and maybe knows how to bypass it?

Mike Fasulo, President of Sony Electronics, while announcing new devices at the CES event confirmed that the rollout of the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the Xperia Z range will begin next month...

http://gadgets.ndtv.com/mobiles/new...op-update-rollout-begins-february-sony-644728

I hope it is true story :D
[Xperia Z2 General] dakunclear:
I'm with you bud apparently the z2 and z3 will see the release first no surprise
[Xperia Z2 General] hyelton:
I cannot wait! I skipped 4.4.4 due to the screen being way to sensitive to my liking, I think it was more of an android problem than Sony as the Galaxy s5 on 4.4.4 seems too sensitive to me as well.
[Xperia Z2 General] effective:
Its 100% sure.Sony confirmed several times.Z3 and Z2 will take the update first,than the rest from the Z family.5.0 will start rolling at 10/15 of february. (hope there will be way for rooting it easly this time lol )
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
This depends are we talking UB or LB?

Im exited for LP alike everyone else, mostly for its featured and performance
[Xperia Z2 General] core_x:
Hopefully Xposed will work for Lollipop then :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z2 General] m2geek:
I got sick of waiting for Lollipop and being on stock, finally got up the nerve to unlock and install CM11 LOL. Will wait and see what the new stock rom is like compared to CM12 once its widely available.
[Xperia Z2 General] chesterr:
+1

Hell yea bro. I really wish it'll work
[Xperia Z2 General] Kocane:
Am I really the only one who finds Lollipop (atleast aosp) looking extremely unappealing? I gave it a go on my old Xperia Z but quickly just went back to 4.4.2... I really hope Sony will work their magic because the way Google made it is just... yuck... the notification dropdown is a mess and a great example of weird material-design would be the "Settings" menu of lollipop.. so much spacewaste filled with plain white.

The design guidelines for Android and even iOS confuses me these days -.- heck, even Windows and OS x look like plain colored crap! Tshh, tssh...
[Xperia Z2 General] m2geek:
I didn't like the stock lollipop look, had it on my nexus 5. It was rather bland and overly bright.
[Xperia Z2 General] dakunclear:
Ya I can see your point on that since its running on my nexus 7 fhd and the brightness does make it awkward so hopefully Sony keeps the dark colours or allows you to switch between the two
[Xperia Z2 General] m2geek:
Yep, my 70yo father had a n7wifi and he hated lollipop so I flashed him back to 4.4.4

Its a Ott tablet for his uses (only uses it for internet banking Hahaha) but he likes it.
[Xperia Z2 General] Lagamorph:
Glad to hear it's coming. Though I'll be waiting for it to be rooted with a Locked Bootloader before I update. Hopefully that wont be long.
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
it shouldent be too hard ;D

just flash to 314 root and install recovery

flash a Pre-Rooted LP FW (if made :D )

use flashtool to flash a LP kernel

simple as ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] gamer649:
That's only if that method still works for LP. Isn't a kernel what allows SU during boot needed now? At least that was the case when I rooted my N7 2012 when LP was first released.
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
no, once you get root access SuperSu will add an exeption into the policy nearly imediatly so an unlocked bootloader is no longer required to root lollipop
[Xperia Z2 General] gamer649:
Well that's a lot better than the need for an unlocked bootloader then (although I will probably unlock mine soon :P). It is going to be interesting to see what Sony do with the 5.0 update.
[Xperia Z2 General] Vuja1:
Better don't do that, because Sony will release 5.0 in February. Better stay on locked bootloader, u can unlock bootloader only if u want to tray some another rom on another kernel (non stock, like CM, AOSP). I think Sony will release 5.0 in 30 days maximum
[Xperia Z2 General] gamer649:
That's actually my plan, to do a little bit of experimenting with another ROM/kernel/MultiROM.
[Xperia Z2 General] chesterr:
Apart from Lollipop we all see news around that Sony is open to sell their mobile division. I'm so sad to hear that. Still its a rumour and we didn't see any new devices on CES too.
[Xperia Z2 General] kamalmawa:
Vodafone Australia latest device update status says " Awaiting software for testing". So looks like it won't be next week
[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:

[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
New icons and screenshot....
[Xperia Z2 General] HellRoot:
I am looking forward to the update.

I think it is nice that they will upgrade the whole series as it will ensure customers being with them

I am excited and can't wait to get a more fluid feel with ART.. If it works :)
[Xperia Z2 General] makarand1881:
TrackID and Socialife got updated with material design too. End of wait may be near.
[Xperia Z2 General] Pandemic:
We already know and yes all apps gets an update so LP coming closer ^^
[Xperia Z2 General] ImS0Raw:
Guys I think we will get the Lolllipop update 'Soony', since most of the .apk's are updaten to MD.
[Xperia Z2 General] tsunii:
any major app missing that needs an upgrade to material design?

looks like the wait might finally come to an end :))
[Xperia Z2 General] das.dian24:
just got an update for MD album app :thumbup:
[Xperia Z2 General] doministry:
I hate how MD destroys the UI consistency.

Like in Album the About the Photo card now has a blue header,

when before it was matching the theme.

Basically I have very mixed feelings about 5.0.
[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
I have the same feeling. But it may work with lollipop theme. I love the glossy icons. Would be missing those :(
[Xperia Z2 General] das.dian24:
uhm, simple question guys, im on existenz rom..

if LP rolls out, is it safe to update from existenz to LP without flashing stock? :confused:
[Xperia Z2 General] PRO>KOMP.<:
Better to flash stock and update to LP. Fresh and clean are always better systems :D
[Xperia Z2 General] nhanngoctien:
icons are so big, i dont know why sony made that on 4.4.4

small icons on 4.4.2 are so nice, hope the changes in 5.0 lp
[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
Does sony liv icon, a material design? Updated yesterday...
[Xperia Z2 General] HellRoot:
Yeah it was just like getting 30 years older after an update.. I am not blind.. Hahahah :)

Manually adjustable icon size would be nice though...

I really miss the leaked betas we had once with older Xperia devices.... now we have to wait for the real deal..!
[Xperia Z2 General] ImS0Raw:
Yes it is safe as long as you perform a FULL wipe. I wouldn't reccomend flashing a ftf though. Just wait till there is an pre-rooted version available which you can flash through recovery after performing a full wipe. (Only if you want to keep root acces)

[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTHvqPVgxpA and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbctDtoY6Gg Xperia Lollipop is upon us! This is the Z3 of course, but if you want to see it. It should be identical to whatever the Z2 gets. Not a whole lot of change. I kind of expected that. I just enjoy the higher framerate/smoother operation in lollipop more than anything. This vid wasn't all that in depth. There may be some other changes not mentioned.

this is what kills sony. bought a xperia x10 years ago and its lack off support regarding updates and locked bootloaders made me promisse not to buy sony again. almost 6 years later i was hoping this was corrected and went for the z2. i gave him to my wife and bought a oneplus one. i now sold the oneplus and im with the z2 again and still no lollipop. wtf sony

Some news about release date for LP?
[Xperia Z2 General] reptile64:
You will know... From the panic in this forum
[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
I don't like the look of lollipop from mwc. Uneven spacing in status bar. No systemui changes, same as stock android. Settings is overkill - LAAARGE gap with small fonts. Fonts size are not same throughout the ui. Where is the wifi and Bluetooth toggle in settings overview? Why the hell is contacts are separated from dialler? Where is the effect on lockscreen? Where is closeall button in recent apps? mostly stock android. That too messed up. Why wifi and network bar in status bar are not sony's? Cm12 looks better.

---------- Post added at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 AM ----------

Missing the shiny kk. Lollipop is like kids phone... Premium look is gone. Thinking of staying in kk.
[Xperia Z2 General] gamer649:
Contacts and dialer have always been separate?

Any problems you have you will be able to fix once it has been out for a while and the mods have been created. I personally prefer they are keeping close to stock.
[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
Yep separate, but would be just a swipe from contacts to dialer or vice versa. But its not like that in lollipop. Yep I know mods can do anything. But I prefer Sony, not to strip of out the nice feature, its been giving for years. Moreover I don't wanna root the mobile till my warranty period. So expecting the best from Sony.

Yes stock is nice. That's y i prefer aosp or cm which is close to stock. But Sony is messing with fonts and layout gaps. They are too big, that I don't like. See the settings. If fixed in final release, its better.
[Xperia Z2 General] benjmiester:
Huh? The update is rolling out right now, and bootloaders are pretty much always locked on every phone. I've never had or heard of one that isn't. They want people who don't know what they're doing to be blocked out of bricking it and blaming them (OEMS). Makes perfect sense to me.
[Xperia Z2 General] PRO>KOMP.<:
What are you talking about, lollipop for xperia z2 isn't roll out?
[Xperia Z2 General] Pandemic:
No not yet !!

Get ya'll peeps never get tired of yourself to just wait patiently on LP ??

I guess not.. Damn !!

It gets quite annoying now, when people cry for the update of it.

Sent From My Z2 On Mw Revolution V2.4
[Xperia Z2 General] bdithug:
Well I think it gets annoying when people get **** on for asking a legitimate question. To each their own though right, everyone finds different things annoying..

After all Sony did say "beginning in February". We're now almost one third through March and still nothing has even been certified through ptcrb yet. Just curious if Sony doesn't release lollipop in March if you will still be preaching patience, making excuses, ragging on anyone who has a different opinion than yours.

Sony gave a time line, a time line that actually falls AFTER every single other major manufacturer. Now they can't even meet that time line. People have every right to be pissed and impatient right now. Lollipop has been out for a while now. Every other manufacturer has updated their 2014 flagships so far. Some even their 2013 flagships too. So your excuses are getting a little annoying. But hey, like I said, to each their own. Everyone finds different things annoying right? :P

Edit: I should add, even carriers are releasing their lollipop updates to 2013 devices. Tmobile is pushing theirs March 10th for the HTC M7 lol

[Xperia Z2 General] senthilvigneshkumar:
[MENTION=270506]pro[/MENTION]>komp< i never said its not rolling out. I'm just expecting a better, finished rom.
[Xperia Z2 General] gamer649:
I will agree there, if carriers are able to release their version of LP then how come Sony hasn't managed to release an unbranded?

But even if the update doesn't hit in March I'll still tell people to be patient because complaining won't make it hit faster.

Also, I think it was Tuesday or Wednesday I had a reply from the Sony Xperia GB twitter (I think it was cause Samsung asked what people's superpowers were, I said waiting for Sony to release the lollipop update). The Sony twitter said they are finalising the testing and plan to release it soon. They also said to keep an eye on the blog over the coming weeks for details and timings. I've got a feeling they are going to try and do a release for branded and unbranded software all at the same time.
