Hello all!

Sony Store is my Chrome home page (too lazy to change it..) so I can check new offers on a regular basis.

And in case you didn't know, PURPLE is now an available color for our dear Z3 :D.

I've attached some pics for your review. What do you think of it?

I bought the black version last year (and also won a PS4 with the online lottery) but would have definitely picked purple if it had been available at that time :(.

[Xperia Z3 General] warface:
I had the original Z in purple. A very nice and eye catching colour.

My Z3 is the copper one, which is even better.
[Xperia Z3 General] Geant39:
Copper is the nicest color available for the Z3 in my opinion, but it's good to see more color available
[Xperia Z3 General] Jiyeon90:
It looks so sexy
[Xperia Z3 General] TEKWRX:
I had a purple Z and Z Ultra, so I would've liked the option to get a purple Z3 at launch. I always thought the purple really set the Xperia line apart from other Android phones on the market. It's a shame it took so long to come out. That being said, I really like my copper dual :)

[Xperia Z3 General] trappxl:
Purple is Hong Kong exclusive. For people who don't need the LTE, you can get that imported as it appears so far only the global model is in purple. For folks like me who use the D6603, I'll stick with what I have...just went from the black to the sliver green one and that looks amazing. Underrated colors.

Still wanted a purple but am happy with that I have.
[Xperia Z3 General] wilsonbljr:
Just a question, is still worth it buying a z3?

Or should i wait for z4?

I can't stand one more month with my s4 :(

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z3 General] rubiconjp:
if you're in the US, Best Buy for Business is selling the Z3 D6603 (in any of the four colors) for $299 + tax (unlocked and no contract).
[Xperia Z3 General] monoke:
Damn. Hell of a price! Purple z3 to me will be one of the unicorns of the mobile world, kind of like the white nokia n9 back then. It looks pretty sweet to me.
[Xperia Z3 General] warface:
Purple z3 also available in the UK, although I can't remember which provider its an exclusive colour for!
[Xperia Z3 General] Stixxbixby:
Link?!? I do not see that anywhere. That is way too good to be true.
[Xperia Z3 General] Buff99:
My wife bought a purple z3 yesterday. In the UK it's exclusive to carphone warehouse.
[Xperia Z3 General] C1emen7s:
Got this version last week - it's gorgeous. Have always got black phones before but it's nice having something a bit different. Really nice shade of purple as well. Also seems to show up fingerprints less.
[Note Edge Themes and Apps] nishant786:
This is a cry for help, from me and the other NOOBs out here, new to the theming world with no idea where to begin.

I started out with a problem. I hate the UI on my Note Edge Lollipop, as compared to the stock Lollipop ASOP UI. I started about trying to change the entire UI (icons, menus, fonts, notification drawer, app drawer etc) to stock AOSP Lollipop UI. I am not rooted.

I AM LOST. No idea which guide to follow. Don't want to change my launcher. I would prefer not to root, would prefer not to void my warranty, would just prefer to screw around as less as possible while getting as close to stock Lollipop as possible.

And I know there are others around me. So here I am, on behalf of the noobs, requesting all experts to provide a starting point from where to begin changing the UI - completely, with as little messing around as possible. Not just to AOSP but to any other UI that someone else might prefer. Please explain this to us like we are 3 year olds.

1) Options for those who are Not Rooted.

2) Options for those who are Rooted.

Ps. This will not work if only the experts contribute. Everyone here who has something to contribute please do!

Ps. Mods I looked and searched for days. I know there are guides out there but I wanted something Note Edge and Lollipop specific.
[Note Edge Themes and Apps] nishant786:
As my contribution. I love the work that this Dev has done for the Note 4. But don't know if this will work on our devices. Also Im not rooted yet.

[Note Edge Themes and Apps] ultramag69:
Mate, there isn't actually a lot you can do for theming without rooting your device. Most themes replace icons in the system files which is impossible to access without root or without being officially supported by Samsung...

The only real way to theme your un-rooted Note Edge is to change the launcher and theme that...

Lollipop Touchwiz Theme

Here is themes app for Lollipop touchwiz http://xdaforums.com/note-4/themes-apps/touchwiz-theme-lollipop-note-4-t3037891. I tryed and it worked. Just don`t flash the zip (that makes your touchwiz home to FC). Just extract the zip and copy all content of zip`s system folder in your devices system folder as it is in zip, except Toucwiz home. Reboot and all done. Now you can change touchwiz themes as you like:)
[Note Edge Themes and Apps] ultramag69:
So, does your edge notifications still work?

I tried to get a few things changed but after messing with my system folders I lost all edge notifications...

I also opened the system file, did you realise you're installing Apex launcher onto your Note Edge? I already own the pro version of this. In the System>App folder it actually says Apex Pro meaning this could be considered as Warez, if it actually is the pro version...
[Note Edge Themes and Apps] cerisu:
Yes, notifications works just fine. And i noticed that Apex launcher too. I deleted it so i doesn`t have any clue is it pro or not. I`m not the developer of this, I just pointed you out how you can use themes:)

Yeah I tried with ad away and just took forever before ad timed out. I have ads blocked with xposed on tablet and phone. Wasn't sure if there was an alternative
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lokke9191:
Add hulu to your whitelist on adaway to resolve that.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GabbyWC:
There is a working solution now. You'll need to install the correct version of Xposed on your Nexus Player and then install YouTube AdAway v2.6.1 to block YouTube video ads on this device.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJBrs:
I'm trying to compile Android 4.2.2 for the Lenovo A2109A. AOSP 4.1.2 mostly worked out fine, except that panorama mode for the camera didn't work. In AOSP 4.2.2 the camera HAL didn't seem to connect to the camera, so I switched to CM-10.1. Camera HAL loads fine, but it doesn't take pictures. The problem seems to be that the stock camera HAL is linked to a version of libjpeg with proprietary additions from nvidia and I can't figure out what they are. Someone else was able to successfully compile CM-10.1 with a working camera by using libjpeg-turbo for compilation (see here), but it also needs a patch for skia that I can't find.

So right now I'm basically stuck and I'm looking for different ways forward. I could really use your advice. Should it be possible to use the camera hal from a related device instead? I know that the nexus 7 is also a tegra3 device, and very close to A2109. It does use different camera devices, but these can be configured in nvcamera.conf. I used strings to find whether any proprietary lib referenced the specific cameras and I found only one, libnvodm_imager.so. The most important differences appear to be in the kernel source, in the following files:

drivers/media/video/tegra/tegra_camera.c

drivers/media/video/tegra/tegra_dtv.c

My question--to what extent should it be possible to just use the grouper tegra camera files for the kernel and then use the grouper camera HAL? Or do you have a different suggestion for me to proceed? I'm asking because I can hardly code. I am, however, getting better and better with git and patches, and I did manage to fix two compile issues in the lenovo kernel source.

My kernel source is over here. My device tree is over here (defaults to aosp 4.2.2 branch, cm-10.1 is a different branch). Grouper kernel sources are over here.

P.S., I have a development thread over at androidtablets.net, which also contains various details.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PJBrs:
Answering my own post...

I tried using grouper HAL, gives error message. But using tf700 camera HAL worked, when used with tf700 libnvcamerahdr.so, both taken from stock 4.2.

So--problem solved :)

Thanks in advanced,sorry erros i make this by my GY.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The GPE data partition is ext4 while non-GPE ROMs use f2fs. Maybe that's the problem? You may have to flash the gpt.bin file in fastboot.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BryanByteZ:
I formatted F2FS in TWRP and Tried to flash but same problem.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you flash the gpt.bin file?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hj97:
I have the same problem. I take it all I have to do to fix it is to flash gpt.bin
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BryanByteZ:
No only formated in TWRP i will waiting for the new version of TWRP h2o64.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BryanByteZ:
Flash of the stock 4.4.4? Or the motorola 5.0.2?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I believe flashing gpt.bin is necessary as the partition layout is different for GPE and non-GPE ROMs.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumon511:
I'm having issues with my z3 compact.like when i'm in a call,the screen gets activated randomly when i move the phone .if i hold it straight onto my ears it works all good.But if i move the phone even if very little around or take away the phone from my face and put it back,the screen gets activated and randomly touched.Anyone having the issue while in call?

my past phones are, Sony live with walkman,HTC desire X,Moto G,LG G3,Moto X.So i know how it should be.Never had that kind of behavious before with sensors.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pipspeak:
Not that sort of problem... my problem is the proximity sensor often does not reactivate the screen when I take the phone away from my face to end a call.

Do you have a screen protector on the front?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumon511:
no I don't use any protector.and I have the problem you mentioned as well.

if I put the phone on my face at certain angle,proximity sensor won't turn off the display.with other phones I never had this sort of weird problems.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esalman:
According to Antutu, there is no proximity sensor in my phone. Very surprised to find that out. Using D5833.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thorstenk:
its very annoying, sometimes its working and sometimes you have no access to the display. When you call somebody and are in the mailbox, there is no way of hanging up, you have to wait till the other site quits the call. How can sony produce something like that?! Is there no quality control?

I would really appreciate If somebody has/finds a workaround for this issue.

Thanks in advance!

Thorsten
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quack3d:
I have the same issue and I've figured out that it's more likely to happen when I hold it to my left ear than my right. It's probably due to the position of the proximity sensor. I always use my phone on my left ear but fortunately I don't see this as a very big issue.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PilsenerX:
I have the same problem, the issue started when I updated to SW version 5.1.1 did you ever found a solution?

[XDA Assist] patutk:
My OPO is stuck in boot loop. It was not used for around 4 months so I think battery went too low below charge. I tried putting it on charge for 2 days. Still same. I sometimes get sign of "Battery too low. Charge before switch on" in Chinese & English. I raised a ticket they told me to install the software in fastboot but phone is not switching on so I cannot put it in fast boot to install those files. Then customer support told me to put it off charge for 12 hours and then charge for 6 hours, un-plug then plug for one hour or more and switch on but still it doesnt.

Now even customer support is not responding to my mails.

Kindly let me know what can I do to make it work.

P.S: I am not a geek so please tell me procedure which is easy to understand and can me done by anyone like me.

I tried to update my HTC One [m7] unlocked/international to the new Android Lollipop with the OTA update that got pushed yesterday. However, it keeps failing. My HTC is rooted, and is currently running 6.12.161.9 (trying to update to 7.18.616.2). It is S-ON and has an hboot 1.57. Now, the problem keeps appearing in the following way.(I installed stock recovery of 6.12.161.9 :crying:version) The phone starts the update process normally. It goes to the recovery and the progress bar starts to move. However as soon as it reaches about 1/4 of its way (always the same), it stops the installation and returns to the recovery title screen (the red triangle and exclamation mark). When I then press volume up and power button to see the recovery menu, it gives me the following readout at the bottom on the console:

Code:

"/system/lib/modules/ansi_cprng.ko" has unexpected contents
