I am also having problems connecting to vista - windows mobile device centre, with my M700.

When I connect to the PC the driver installs as Microsoft Windows Mobile Remote Adapter, and the device centre does not reconise that the device is connected.

Does anyone have the correct driver they could pm me or post a link, or any fixes.
[P3600 General] Rudegar:
pda's dont use real drivers they use generic drivers (1 driver for all of them)

that driver comes with the sync program

many many pda owners have issues with vista

by no fault of their pda's
[P3600 General] s4cr3d:
Hmmm try do a window update or use another usb port
[P3600 General] mdyson:
I have managed to resove this issue by clicking on:

Start>Settings>Connections>USB to PC> Then unticking the option "Enable advanced network functionalaty".
[P3600 General] mikehockenballs:
I had a similar problem when I tried to connect my brothers m700 to my p.c. using vista etc... It only recognised my m700 that was sync'd with it earlier and not my brothers for some reason, weird. No matter how many times I rebooted the p.c. or his m700 it would not sync at all, it just did not recognise that it was connected via usb.
[P3600 General] vanydotk:
I had the same problem when I first got my P3600, after I did this it worked fine.
[P3600 General] s4cr3d:

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
Switch phone off and hold the volume down button as you plug the phone into the PC.

As you solved yourself you could let us know how you did.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnporter29:
I'm aware of the correct way of doing but it wouldn't work. As there was zero replies in x number of views I took it that nobody knew the answer or was at least interested in the issue.

In the end I used the adb command to reboot the phone into fastboot and so forth.
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CSeb95:
And till then it's working fine again ?

You can get into fastboot as you want in the classic way ?

Hey,

is there somebody else with the above problem? Because i have the same since i got my phone. I didnt tought this will be a big probem. But since i updated my honor 6 and something went wrong my phone is completely bricked, because it is in a bootloop and i can not enter bootloader nor fastboot mode or recovery. I am afraid that huawei says its my fault and denies warranty, so i am really intrested if there are more then two people out there with the same problem.

Thanks a lot

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Niscchay:
Same Problem man pls .....hlp......
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadiehabib:
Download Honor 6 Multi-tool and do the "Unbrick" trick through the fastboot menu. To enter fastboot first install Huawei USB drivers on PC and hold volume down when your phone is bootlooping with the USB cable connected to PC. Or use adb.exe from android sdk and type "adb reboot fastboot" when the screen shows "Honor" logo. Repeat the action by "copying\pasting" the command very fast until adb sends your commmand to the phone.

I wasnt able to wait for Z4 to be announced - my contract expired last month

My HTC M7 was dying on me - battery was draining so fast

Wasnt pleased with the HTC and Sammy announcements so I went and grabbed the Z3

I thought I will be disappointed as this is an "older" phone but I am quite pleased!

Hope I made the right choice, will scour this forum for more tips and tricks on using my new Z3

I am missing my HTC blinkfeed, flipboard does not cut it for me - any other suggestions?

I heard there was a Sense 6 being developed for Z3, but I didnt want to root this early - phone is just 2 days old hehe
[Xperia Z3 General] Paragon_X:
I'm actually in the same boat. I'm coming from the Nexus 5 and looked hard at it. Camera upgrade, waterproof and battery life are the clincher. I just need to determine if every model can be rooted and unlocked.
[Xperia Z3 General] Dwayne01:
Try giving feedly a go. I use that instead of Flipboard
[Xperia Z3 General] plemen:
Buy a case. I usually go caseless but I dropped the phone quite a bit (just getting used to new size, glass front back, etc) and cracked the screen in the first week. Now I have it back from repairs and I have a tempered glass screen protector and a clear thin case. Phone is protected and it still looks fantastic.

I think you made the right choice - this is a great phone! Really hope Sony keeps making new Xperia's and markets them a bit better.
[Xperia Z3 General] xxpmrong:
Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your cracked screen? Do you have to pay for repairs?

In this side of the world, a cracked screen will cost you more than 200 USD even when the phone is under warranty.

I ordered the Devilcase and front and back glass SP to protect my Z3
[Xperia Z3 General] xxpmrong:
I use the Google newstand for now. Works quite well for me as it has a widget.

You'd be surprised but Socialife is quite nice ATM.

For all the rss/news apps I tried is the most beautiful one and actually the easiest to setup.

I've used BeyondPod as well but they've destroyed it's UI.
[Xperia Z3 General] se1000:
So exactly how much are you enjoying the battery life?
[Xperia Z3 General] xxpmrong:

[Xperia Z3 General] xxpmrong:
lol I have actually just uninstalled Social life - this is an app added by Sony by default right?

I tried it for a few minutes and didnt work for me :)

Yep! Battery life is awesome! My HTC M7 would die in half a day with 4G on and a couple of videos on the train.

With M7, when I go cycling I would have to bring a power bank.

Z3's battery is not even halfway through when I get back from the office!

I haven't been using the office charger since I got the Z3.

There is still a lot more battery left before I go to bed but I charge it anyway so I get 100% the following day.

Hey buddy, I also have an m7 and have been eyeing the z3. How is the performance under heavy usage compared to the m7? Does it lag or heat up?
[Xperia Z3 General] xxpmrong:
Hi, yep it does heat up especially when playing games

The heat is concentrated on the top side of the phone while on the m7 I can feel the heat on the whole back side - might be due to its all AL design.
[Xperia Z3 General] xxquicksh0txx:
Correct, the metal basically acts as a huge heat sink. Which is good for the device, as it gets the heat away from the components and into your hand/air. Where-as glass conducts heat pretty poorly. So you only feel it where it's hot right under neath.

I doubt it makes a very big difference in terms of performance, or longevity. Although it's definitely a different feel in the hand.

Also, accidentaly leaving my old M8 in the sun a few times ended up with a prettyyyy expensive game of hot potato
[Xperia Z3 General] Redoa:
Well, same thing here! I came from the Galaxy S4, and honestly the M9 was a little disapponting, the S6 is very expensive ( i'm from México), so, the Z4 seems to be very far away, i grabbed the Z3 a week ago and i'm lovin' it !!! :laugh:

[Xperia Z3 General] AnubuRe:
Me too

I'm about to jump on the Z3 wagon too :D coming from a GS2 that ive had 4 yrs. Love the look of the GS6 edge but the price is a piss take and worse SamsungIphone getting rid of the the changeable batt, yet even WORSE for me the memory card, not being able to use a card killed samsung for me who i now see the same as iphone. M9's camera in low light and the messed up 810 chip put me off that 1.

I did order a Z3 couple weeks ago but they messed up which would have left me without a phone for x days so i kept my current contract for another month. i should be a Z3'er in couple weeks.

From the research i've done i know i'm gonna love the Z3, seems like a Gr8 fone :good: already brought a case, magnetic dock an a duelshock 4 for it :angel:
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Glad to see people talking good things about the Z3. I'm coming from the HTC One M7 too, and I ordered the M9, but I cancelled the ordered after thinking twice about how much money I was goind to spend; it's too expensive, and the S6 is Samsung, so I will pass on that brand again, because it's doesn't look that good for me, and the S6 Edge is too expensive. So at the end I will buy the Z3 because I wanted it since it came out last year, but the price wasn't right, and now that the Z4 is out, and has almost the same specs, I think it makes sense.

Just one thing, I'm not clear if I can root the phone without losing the DRM files, since I don't want to be messing around with the TA backup and stuff. Did you root your phone with no trouble at all?
[Xperia Z3 General] dj_richard05:
Yes you can root without loosing DRM files. Many guides here to help you out. Just make sure not to unlock your boot loader and you'll be happy.

Hi,

I have reinstall my m7 to old ROM with Android 4.1.1 and didn't do all stages OTA updates but recover backup with Lollipop. Everything is going fine but now I have hboot 1.5.4 instead 1.61. Could it cause any problem in the future? Should I install latest hboot? (where to find it?)

I have a stock rom htc one, wwe, s-off, rooted.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badzi0r:
I wanna stay with a stock rom. But considering to keep system up to date. What is the solution then? Should I go to rom version down and upgrade to current android 5.02 and then recover backup? Or is there a place on the network where I can find the original stock hboot 1.61 and install it via fastboot? (I've tried, didn't found)

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badzi0r:
I'm not downgrading. As I said in my first post. After crashing my HTC I have installed all from the beginning, hboot 1.44, rom with android 4.1.1, etc... then I have made OTA update to 1 version up, and then I have restored whole system (Lollipop) from backup made by TWRP. So now I have now Lollipop with hboot 1.54 but I would prefer have the updated to 1.61.

I hope it's clear now :)

BTW, can anyone look at my bootloader screen and confirm that not only hboot is outdated? How about the radio, etc...?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
HTC never updates hboot by itself.

If you don't have latest firmware, then you don't have latest hboot, radio, adsp, touch driver, WiFi driver, modem files, etc....

In other words, don't just update your hboot and expect to be fully up to date.

Update your full firmware.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
And why not updating all the way up to lollipop? You will not be able to take ota updates with your phone in this state. Your firmware version and software version must match. Its not only the hboot version, like said above.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badzi0r:
I didn't have stock rom with lollipop and been to lazy to do one by one all that OTA updates, so after two I've restored the twrp backup.

What you suggest now?

Do you know if the patch you submitted for CM11 could be integrated into the CM12 branch?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontpannic:
You are an absolute legend.

I was looking for ways on how to decompile the bluetooth.default.so from an 'off the shelf' ROM (I'm not too hot on compiling from source yet!) and this post was enough. My phone now connects to my BMW E46's bluetooth ULF and works absolutely perfectly. Thankyou!

EDIT 1: Just for further info - I'm using a Galaxy S4 LTE (I9505) and the byte sequence was slightly different.

Find the byte sequence 9aeb a8b1 b4f8 6032 93b9 b0f8 08e0 0de0 (starting around offset 00a2490)

Change it to 9aeb a8b1 b4f8 6032 93b9 4ff0 000e 0de0

EDIT 2: In fact, it seems like you can probably start from a8b1 b4f8...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimodax:
Technically there should be no problem using the same source patch for CM12 because the original source in Android is still the same. But I don't know if they will carry it forward or how long.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimodax:
Cool ... I didn't expect anyone else (besides me) to to tinker with the issue in that depth. :D

You're right, you can probably ignore the first two bytes (I made an edit to my original post). Starting there was a rather arbitrary decision on my side, it's just important that sequence around the modified bytes exists in the library only once.

Enjoy!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimodax:
I had a bit of free time and tinkered a bit with builds of the library in earlier versions of Android (4.4. and 4.3. Nexus builds).

Note: this is experimental, I don't have a Android 4.x device anymore, so this may or may not work.

This is a diff of a bluetooth.default.so file (hex dump via linux xxd command as described above) for an Android 4.4. Nexus 5 build:

007b8b0: 5a22 27f0 e4ff 2846 57b1 40f2 1131 27f0

007b8c0: 1bfe 00b9 14e0 b4f8 5812 89b9 0389 0de0 (original)

007b8c0: 1bfe 00b9 14e0 b4f8 5812 89b9

0023

0de0 (modified)

007b8d0: 40f2 0231 27f0 10fe 50b1 007a b4f8 58e2

So, the following would lead with reasonable certainty to the location that needs to be changed (I had a look at an old Nexus i9250 build with Android 4.3 from my previous phone and it matched):

Find: 00b9 14e0 b4f8 5812 89b9 0389 0de0 40f2 0231

Change: 00b9 14e0 b4f8 5812 89b9

0023

0de0 40f2 0231

Probably even the following will do (assuming the find-sequence appears only once in the file)

Find: 5812 89b9 0389 0de0

Change: 5812 89b9

0023

0de0

Again this is speculative, but if someone does try it, let us know the results.

EDIT: one user reports here that the short sequence worked.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cavechild:
Hi,

I had a go at patching the bluetooth.default.so on my LG G3.

Here's the closest match I could find to your original byte sequence along with what I patched it to:

A8B1 B4F8 6[COLOR="Red"]4[/COLOR]32 93B9 [COLOR="lime"]B0F8 08E0[/COLOR] 0DE0
A8B1 B4F8 6[COLOR="red"]4[/COLOR]32 93B9 [COLOR="Lime"]4FF0 000E[/COLOR] 0DE0

The numbers in green are the matching sequence from your original patch, there was however a difference with your byte sequence that I highlighted in red (6032 > 6432).

I don't know how important that is, but the patch as I made it didn't seem to make any difference to the phone/car behaviour.

They still connect ok and the address book transfers fine, everything is hunky dory until I make a call at which point the bluetooth disconnects and the audio reverts to the phone.

The file is in the original place with the original file permissions too.

Any ideas?

Andy.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimodax:
This is probably simply a different problem. The problem the original patch adresses, happens only at bluetooth-paring (... a disconnect within 3-5 seconds). Your patch probably fixed that behavior, but I guess your car/phone combo suffers from a different one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cavechild:
Bugger, I have a 2005 E46 With Business Radio (the one that plays MP3s) and a ULF that I don't know the model number of. Worked perfectly with my Galaxy S3 running JellyBean.

How did you go about debugging the issue as I'm tempted to have a pop at recompiling the .so.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimodax:
Almost 99.9% a different problem, because this problem was introduced to Android with 4.2 (i.e. stock 4.3 Jelly Bean would not have worked either).

Initially (when researching the problem the very first time in 2012 with Navi-Professional), I started looking at the system log (adb logcat or via catlog app) and was looking for bluetooth related output.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cavechild:
Thanks, I'll give the catlog app a try and see what pops out :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xrwz:
Thanks shimodax, I've done the patching for Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 Omega v19 custom rom (searched for just 5812 89b9 0389 0de0 as the previous bytes were different in my file, bplus.default.so - I suspect the same file will be there in an original Samsung rom as Omega is based on that) and tested it and IT WORKS so here is the confirmation. Now my E83 with 4th gen ULF happily stays connected to the phone and I can do pretty much everything I used to be able to do with previous versions of Android. Thank you again for all the info, I can now avoid getting a ticket :D.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontpannic:
Interestingly - although this was integrated into CM sources - my phone running on CM based ROM's still exhibits exactly the same behaviour. Obviously the bluetooth stack is different so modifying it in the same way as above is not the same procedure.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sratxp:
I have similar problem as Cavechild on my e46. with Moto G (2013)

Everything is hunkydory until I try to make a call. The phone simply drops the connection once audio has to be transfered. Interesting is that the first time I paired it everything worked flawlessly I could even make a call. I tried rebooting, repairing but I could never do a call again.

I had similar problems with stock 4.4. Then I noticed that I only had problems if I turned on my car while my phone was still connected to my bluetooth headset. Once I ensured that my phone is not connected to any bluetooth devices when I turn on my car everything worked normaly. Unfortunately that doesn't help with CM 12.

Update:

I found a workaround. Let your phone connect to your car. Then go in the Bluetooth menu of your phone, open the properties of the BMW Bluetooth device and remove the checkbox for Audio - Telephone. This disconnects your phone. Go out of the properties, then open them again and enabled the profile you deactivated. Your phone should connect to your car again. Now Bluetooth should work.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cavechild:
Nicely done, that's fixed it for me too. My current solution is a combination of "Tasker" & "Bluetooth Autoconnect".

Here's roughly what I have setup in Tasker:

EVENT: Bluetooth Connection PBAP - (Phonebook).

TASK:

wait 1 second

disconnect call audio

wait 1 second

connect call audio

beep

This works pretty well but I'm sure it could be improved upon. I specify the car's bluetooth device for all the operations and hook off the phonebook connection because I wasn't sure if hooking off any other connections would result in getting stuck in an endless loop. The only downside with this is that the phone makes two PBAP transfers, one for the phonebook and one for any contacts on the sim card (even if there aren't any).

I tried to do the same in Macrodroid, but the bluetooth call audio support doesn't seem to work with my setup. Which is a shame as Macrodroid is much nicer to use than Tasker.
