I hope that is the worst of your troubles... my 12 months with O2 were horrendous. I ended up, amongst other things, paying for things such as MMS allowances when my account on their system was misconfigured in such a way that it never actually worked properly. customer support is a bloody nightmare, having to deal with the tier 1 CSRs made me want to pull my hair out at times.

all I can say is that i'm glad the (web-only?) sim only packages are one-month rolling contracts. There's two reasons I moved away from O2 - their customer support and their tariffs. curiously enough, those are also the two reasons I'll be staying with T-Mobile for the foreseeable future, unless they ever stopped doing flat-rate 3G!

if you still need help later / tomorrow, I'll dig out my old XDA 2i and get the gprs and mms settings off it if that'll help you (the phone is in Brum and I'm not, at least until the evening).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Robster:
I have to say that talking to their support trying to set up this phone has not been a pleasant experience.

I really liked the look of t-mobile, particularly the fast data rates available and good tariffs BUT I got my wife a t-mobile Pay as you go phone a couple of weeks ago and it is unusable where we live.

No signal in the house and very spotty around the village.

I tried to return it but they insisted their system said I had a signal so would not take it back!!!!!!!

Again many thanks for all the help.

Hello all XDA members.

I have a problem with my note 3 n9005. When I try to install new soft it says:

-symlink:some symlinks failed.

I can`t do nothing to repair this. I tried to change recovery (CWM,TWRP and Philz Touch) but it doesn`t help. Next I installed 2 files through Odin and it was:

-BL_N9005XXUGBNL8.tar

-CP_N9005XXUGBNL8.tar

Nothing changed. I can say i`m coming from leaked lolipop installed through Odin and there is no problem. Only rom which i Can install is liqoudsmooth.

Can you help me? I don`t have any more ideas what can I do...

Thank you for you replies!:)

I have recently bought a Micromax Canvas A1 and I'm really disappointed with the stock camera. There is no option for white balance, auto & macro focusing or scenes like sepia, negative etc. Also quality of images captured by it is very poor in comparison with other phones with same 5M camera. So I'd like to know-

what camera app, if any, you are using

what are you doing to get better quality image

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Omario-242:
TWRP FOTAkernel has nothing to do with the kernel itself. The FOTAkernel partition is solely for recovery (at least the way its used by us). The kernel by CM won't get overwritten when flashing this, plus the FOTAkernel recovery will survive flashing CM nightlys (or any other ROM) as far as I know.

If you're talking about this one, then you misread it. It's for custom ROMs only. Don't confuse it with AndroPlus kernel. Just flash the one I linked with the terminal way described in the thread. I can confirm it working on CM12.

EDIT: This thread has a good description of FOTAkernel as well, so read it if you want to know more about it :)

[Android Software Development] tzzeri:
In GNL, the navbar is translucent instead of transparent (like nova is transparent).

So I emailed Alexander Schulz, the developer of Xposed GEL Settings, how to make it transparent, being that we can't use Xposed in Lollipop.

He responded with the following: "You can check my Github. It's not easy to do because all the code is obfuscated. Just check how I do it and then look up in the ObfuscationHelper class what the name of the method is called."

I don't really have much experience with developing and I don't know what I'm looking for.

Here's his github https://github.com/theknut/XposedGE...posedgelsettings/hooks/ObfuscationHelper.java

If someone can help with figuring out what I'm meant to change, I could decompile the app and do it. Any help will be appreciated. When it's done, I'll put the apk up here. (And being that Google is smarter than WhatsApp, they hopefully won't ban us for using a modified launcher. :) )

My daughter’s phone was stolen and she has to get by with one of my old Samsung S3’s until the insurance company gets their **** together. And, once they do I still want to use that phone as a back up, for the whole family.

Now she has gotten some weird black message on the screen and some PC error stuff on it. The telephone doesn’t work anymore but internet works as long as it is run through wifi.

I have tried the following:

Switching sim-cards. Same BS.

Rebooting to factory settings. Same BS.

Installed AVG antivirus and run a scan. Same BS.

What to do and what is it?

I bought my Z3 few hours ago, i want to root it and I;m looking for the latest firmware to download.

Currentlly there is 23.0.1.A.5.77 on my device.

I read on this thread on xda that

the Firmware for D6603 and D6653 are the same file.

Also on this thread, it shows a same file.

Is that confirmed?

can i use the same file on my D6653 and don't get bricked?

Thanks,

I've tried alternative players, but couldn't find one that I liked and that had the ability to cast to my chromecast. If you have an idea of an app that can do that, maybe I missed it, can you post up advice?

I've revereted to an older version of Youtube: found here, but there is no queue option for the videos.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] mark2410:
hello, i was just looking into the smartwatch 3 and i think the steel one looks great. the black one however, is right now almost half the price (net quite but not too far off) and i was thinking, could i get the black one then at a later date but the nice steel strap and holder for it?

i mean as much as i like how it looks in steel i dont think its worth all that much extra but im hesitant to get the black rubbery strap as in the past my skin hasnt always loved that kind of watch straps.

(also sorry if ive put this in the wrong place, wasnt sure if here or accessories)
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Joachim Winter:
Yeah the bands are interchangeable, not that Sony has bothered to make strap available to buy yet...........................
[Sony Smartwatch 3] mark2410:
ah thats what i hoped. one now ordered. yey, thanks and fingers crossed sony decide to make it available at a sensible price for a strap.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] JKWR:
I'm a bit miffed that I had to buy the Smartwatch 3 twice. (I got the black rubber on launch thinking I could just buy the metal strap.) Just like the Smartwatch 2 it looks like you will never be able to. My metal Smartwatch 3 arrived this morning but its been a costly exercise being an early adopter. It works out ill have lost £80 once I've sold the black rubber one. Id have kept them both and used the black for running and the metal for best but you cant pair both at once which is a real shame.

Waiting for the official lime sports strap!

It still works out way cheaper than buying a Tag I suppose lol!!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] sirrelevant:
How adjustable is the band? What's the smallest adjustment that can be made?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] jkr284:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] garymontague:

I find it pretty robust, and if it breaks warranty or insurance. Also I think the convenience of being able to charge wit a conventional cable outweighs any potential port breakage issues :D

just ordered these for using with it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261585900510

why they didnt give you an angled micro usb connector i have no idea.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Dingo745:
I have no problem with the USB port albeit it's in an awkward spot, but it is the rubber dust cover that I think will not last too long, but time will tell :D
[Sony Smartwatch 3] dingbatt:
I purchased a right angled USB cable off eBay. Makes connecting the watch to a charger vastly easier. So much so that there is no requirement to remove the watch from its strap. That will be more important if Sony ever front up with the after market stainless strap.

yeat its a right pain. bit of me keeps looking at the 360 and its qi charging, then a little voice says want!!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] chrissss91:
Hello,

In fact, it's not realy hard to adjust the links yourself.

I had to remove 4 links.

It can be done with a simple pin to push a little bit the pin bar (3mm are enought), then just pull it with a tongs (not sure of the word, sorry for my english).

When the link is removed, just tap with care with a little hammer and voila.

Probably an easy fix, but I am at a loss. I flashed Paranoid Android 5.0, re-rooted with chainfire, got su and busybox all up to date and started rebuilding my tablet. When I open gallery it says "no external storage available" then closes, and I can't download anything from the internet because all my apps are trying to use an sd card, however play store downloads apps just fine. But I guess the new PA 5.0 moved my old files to a different folder in internal storage, and I can't point any apps to that directory, and the new emulated SD folder just doesn't work.

edit: still not fixed, and Google hasn't been much help.

the twrp manager app ran an sd card patch it said it needed, could that be the issue?

every app that allows you to manually point to a directory only lets me point at the sd card, strange... we don't even have an sd slot??

Then I upgraded my Radio to 1.41.00.10 (if you wanna know what that is, go Wiki)
