He, he ... we have a place for this kind of questions on xda: **DEVICE SUGGESTION THREAD** -- Not sure what device to buy? Ask here!.

But keep in mind, that each user has different needs ... and so what's positive for one may be negative for another one.

You have to check what's important for you and then decide.

I personally perfer a device with removable battery. Just to have the option to change it, if I need to. But honestly, I never had to change the battery yet.

I have a GoClever R104 tab and when I turn it on, it freezes on the very first GoClever boot screen and then turns off. I would like to flash a factory image, but I couldn't find it on their website. I sent a letter to their company, but they haven't answered.

Can somebody help me somehow?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Hello guys ,

Yesterday my device ran out of battery and turned off.

I am trying to charge it and i have already used different chargers with no success.

When i connect an AC Charger the red led blinks on and off for some time. During that time i cant do anything (device doesnt power on and even if i press Vol UP+Power Button phone remains unresponsive)

After some time the led stops blinking and remains permanent red (phone now responds when pressing Vol UP + Power Button and vibrates 3 times)

No matter how many hours i have the phone charging , it simply doesnt power on despite the fact that when pressing Vol UP + Power Button it vibrates 3 times.

I really dont like the idea of a hardware error or corrupted bootloader and i want to believe that its a battery failure....

I also tried to charge it from USB ports and even from a power bank with no success at all.

Any ideas?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
^ Do you still have warranty on the product? If so I suggest contacting Sony and sending in your phone for repairs...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
I have unlocked my bootloader therefore i think that if they manage to boot the phone and see that my bootloader is unlocked they will charge the repair since my warranty is voided.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Tommy-Geenexus:
Set your device in fastboot mode, and flash a new kernel (stock or stock cm).
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Not an issue. As Tommy already mentioned, simply set your device into fastboot mode & relock the bootloader. Simple!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
If it wont boot it probably won't go into fastboot.

Does the wall charger get warm? I had the same issue once. I tock about 4 hours before it started to charge properly
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
I made a last attempt and left it charge during last night and all of a sudden when i woke up in the morning i found it with screen on waiting for PIN insertion.... wtf.... Battery was at 100%. Thank God cause i was thinking the worst.

I still don't have any idea what's behind this. I ordered a second battery to test.

Given the chance I'd like to share another strange that happens since the first day i got my XZU.

1.When i charge the phone when battery surpasses 90% screen starts turning on, then after the timeout turns off and then immediately on again etc . This keeps happening till fully charged.

2. I also noticed that i can't turn off the phone using RON's power menu (no matter if stock or custom ROM). Power off just reboots the phone into ROM again.

Has anyone else noticed any of these?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
never seen [1] before, [2] is a semi common bug in custom kernels, not sure why it will happen on stock
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Godaemon, sounds like you have a ghost haunting your Z Ultra!!

He is keeping your phone from charging among other things...

[HTC One Mini] feemanbe:
Hi, I have a unlocked HTC One Mini S-ON, not sure if root is still there.

I had it loaded with One-Hybrid-Rom, which used to work fine.

Whenever the phone runs out of battery and I recharge it, after trying to reboot, I always get bootloader.

I have to reboot boatloader 100 times before I finally get the HTC screen and the Rom boots up.

Once the rom is loaded, the phone works fine.

Also, in bootloader, I can NOT enter recovery. When I select "Recovery", it gets back to the same bootloader screen.

So I tried flashing the recovery partition with all kinds of versions of twrp and cwm.

The phone is perfectly connected with adb, fastboot. I use fastboot flash firmware to try and flash the recovery, but it ALWAYS gives me the same error, it is able to send the file to the phone perfectly, but when it starts writing I get "IMAGE UPDATE ERROR".

I have tried literally everything to get the recovery partition working again, but all fails.

As I said, once the phone is booted up, it is working fine...

Is there a fix for this issue? It is just impossible to reboot the phone 100 times before the rom loads.

Thanks a lot guys.
[HTC One Mini] feemanbe:
No one?
[HTC One Mini] feemanbe:
No-one willing to help me on an unflashable recovery partition?

Sometimes phone boots into modded OS and runs perfectly, but mostly (99 out of 100 times) it just reboots to bootloader,

unable to enter recovery.

When flashing recovery (I tried all possible recoveries) via fastboot, it connects, but then I get "Failed, image update error"..;

I would really like to use this phone again...

It is S-ON, Unlocked, Hboot-2.21

Thanks.

Guide to make your SM-N900 running 4.4.2 look like a Nexus with Lollipop

So I started this blog explaining how I did that, many thanks to the threads available on this forum. I was getting really tired of TouchWiz, and using a different launcher still didn't seem to solve the problem of all that bloatware running in the background. Plus, I am really obsessed with Material Design and Lollipop.

I was determined to not get a custom ROM and flash a new recovery, so instead I ended up doing this. Check it out and let me know what you think and help refine this approach by contributing on this thread.

[Xperia Z2 General] fertsch:
Maybe some changes to the Camera Algorithms would be nice. Sony has built in a 20.7 MP camera with an f2.0 aperture which is awesome but their Software Algorithms arent really optimized in my opinion.(Some times Colour Temperature is too cold in Auto Mode or the pictures look lifeless due to lack of colour intensity). Not that I'm unhappy with the Z2 Camera(not at all:D) but for a High-End Device they could do some improvements to them especially because they advertise the Z2 mostly for its 20.7 Megapixel Cam.

Best regards :)

I would like the camera app to be more faster like HTC One M8 or Iphone 6,they are the kings in that category right now.(Camera shutter,focus)

And I would like more speed in all UI like M8.

I'm satisfied with the design of Z2,stereo speakers and especially camera but more speed Sony,more speed !
[Xperia Z2 General] Envious_Data:
I would love manual focus in the camera.

You cant just throw a very capable camera on a phone and not have more control

This is where i think Xperias Faulter because we can create some Near DSLR results with more manual controll yet taking pictures is usualy hindered by the limits on manual whitebalance and lack of manual focus

[MENTION=4895687]Envious_Data[/MENTION] Your wish/idea is on the list bro :P
[Xperia Z2 General] fluxxis:
Agree, my first wish is that they do a proper redesign of the Xperia UI with Material Design influences. The TV SideView app got a new logo a month ago which could be a preview of what's to come with Android L, so I still hope they are on the right way.

In addition I want to see more CLASSY themes from Sony. The core themes on the device are ok, but the additional themes from the app store (IMO) suck. Too much color, confusing backgrounds, non-stock navigation icons, childish themes (Mickey & Co). I would like to see more stylish, simple but classy themes. Just as an example, I like these CM11 theme https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rayford85.flat (Yeah, that's not Sony style, so they don't have to copy it exactly like that.)

I would like to see the core apps get an overhaul as well. I love the Gallery app, one of the best from Sony, but the Contacts app for example looks a little bit old. Especially Xiaomi and Huawei have done an outstanding job with redesigning their core apps in Emui 3 and Miui 6 and I hope that Sony will take a step in the right direction too.

I hope the camera will improve further. I have a little child and no time to play with the custom settings in real life - I want the Superior Auto Mode to finally deliver what the name promises. Right now too many pictures have wrong color balancing (more than one time even Photoshop couldn't help) and sometimes bad exposure which are my main complains.

Stock notifications and Mail app from Android L please.

The last one is my personal preference: I prefer the quick settings implementation of Google or LG. For example to get to the Bluetooth settings (common task because I own some bluetooth speakers I want to connect to on occasion) on Xperia UI I have to swipe down, swipe left, long press on the Bluetooth button, select settings. On other devices I simply have to swipe down and long press the button.

[MENTION=5780895]fluxxis[/MENTION] Your wish/idea is also on the list :P :good:

You have working Xposed and it's still at alpha state, by the time it will be available as a stable release,This is really a good news. Those days rovo89 wasn't sure about whether he's gonna work on it or not.

But now we have working xposed. :D

I am pretty sure they won't release LP February, I think early March. It's okay as long it is a bug-free LP then I am happy with CM12 :p :victory:
