Sony Smartwatch 3 Stainless band

I see that a number of you have already posted comments about your SWR 3 stainless bands. Yes, the connector part that connects the watch band to the frame around the core of the watch is plastic. One of my plastic connector parts broke after a bit over a year of use. Sony has been NO help. 5 months of trying to get an answer as to where I can get a new band and still nothing. Just the stainless band is available on eBay for more than the cost of the whole watch + band. Sony can't tell me how to get a new band for a watch that is out of warranty.

Any help the group can provide is greatly appreciated!

I have the exact same issue since two days. have been in contact wih Sony helpdesk and have reached out via Twitter, facebook and even Linkedin. No news yet :(
[Sony Smartwatch 3] mh297:
Another scratched 'metal' housing here too. Disappointing, as it's not a bad looking watch in silver with a metal strap. The strap part is holding up really well. Fortunately Amazon returns (even 10 months on) helps get past Sony's obstinacy and ignorance.

How do I fix it if it's a Rom issue? If it's something that can't be fixed, can someone recommend a stable Rom with good functionality and features?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jess813:
I was on LiquidsSmooths ROM and wanted to go back to CM12 so I flashed an old nightly I had used before03082015, so I flashed the ROM then gapps then wiped dalvik, then reboot. My phone went into a black screen and that's it...when I connect to the PC the PC makes a sound like it recognizes it, but nothing.Any suggestions????

Thank you all for your info and help, I ended up sending it in to Motorola, and they have replaced it at no cost. I am just thankful that i am able to get back to the Nexus!!!!

long press the power button for about 20 seconds. after about 3-4 seconds, press volume down as well. this should reboot your device into the bootloader. try it.

Jess813, If you don't mind me asking, I'm in the same boat as you were. I hard bricked my device and I need to RMA it. I brought it through Sprint. My question is, did you get yours through your carrier and if so did you RMA it through your carrier or through Motorola??

Thanks in advanced
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jess813:
No sir, I obtained mine through a Craigslist trade(for a Note 4) and I just received back my new device with new box and charger. You should be good to go, the way that I did it was through my PC, I chatted with a Moto live representative and they created the RMA for me.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bojackr1:
Thanks. I'm just trying to decide which procedure to go through. Take it Sprint and have them crack it open or send it back to Motorola and wait.

Sent it back to Motorola after speaking with 1 of their reps.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jess813:

So my Cingular 8125's got enough scratches and the slide is loose enough that I think it's time to replace the housing.

There are several auctions for them on eBay so I'm wondering if anyone has bought from any of the regular sellers on eBay and can attest to the quality of the housings?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
Have we seen the last of support from Madcatz? They are very nice folks on the phone until you inquire into software updates the conversation becomes very short at this point? With all these great mods could they not just pay one of the devs for a update?

Just got a new Tronsmart Draco Telnos AWESOME BOX! FAST
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Yeah, madcatz.. I'm guessing they just wrote the mojo off... Shame.

Nice! Impressive hardware, I like the 4GB ram and SATA port on it.. can you install apps directly on it instead of the internal storage?

Has a unbuntu port.. which is pretty cool for a portable desktop!

Pricey with no controller.. interesting to compare that with the X1 shield.
[M.O.J.O. General] disorder78:
Mad Cats hates MOJO. They want you to just buy one from them, so they don't go out of business.
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
I have the same feeling :confused:
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
hardly, it must of been a long shot from the start, being a peripheral company ;)

Shame, they put in the hard work desiging and putting it out.. and running out of steam at the finishing line is pretty sad.

Oh well... is the razor is doing any better though?

It come out a year later, with worse HW IMO.:eek:

Starting to see octo core and X1 boxes now, so the days of K1 or lesser boxes must be numbered.

And Ouya lol.. well.. how long can you keep selling a T3(from 2012) device :eek::rolleyes::laugh::laugh::laugh:
[M.O.J.O. General] disorder78:
Oh well, I don't care anymore. Forget Mad Catz and OUYA because both companies suck.
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
I like Mojo Hardware the controller is great. I'll know in the future not to buy anything that requires software from them. And Ouya the company with no management can you believe they ordered more Tegra 3 consoles in 2015? The sad thing is there are games with allot of talent on Ouya. I don't understand how a company stays in business with no public relations or marketing? Maybe they will emerge as a consulting firm for what not to do when you start business:cyclops:
[M.O.J.O. General] disorder78:
So I'm running CM 12, and I can tell you that the only reason my MOJO is still in my house is because of this ROM. The hardware is great, and CM 12 fixes a lot of software issues with stock ROM. However, features like a game mapper should have been added. Mad Catz is a terrible company and I promise to never by another product from them again.

The controller is nice, but I can't play the games I want to play because the controller is not supported. This is why Mad Catz should have created a game mapper. Also, I miss vibration.

How about this, OUYA and Mad Catz Team up to make their next product. Even if this happened I would purchase the Shield because I can't trust novice companies like OUYA.
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
So are you going with Obox or Shield? I still like Obox because it's upgradable but Shield is Nvidia??? I can't make up my mind :confused:
[M.O.J.O. General] disorder78:
Definitely the Shield. One reason is the price at $199, and another reason is to get that game streaming service which is similarly priced to Playstation Network/Xbox live. I can get PC games without buying a PC
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Yeah the shield for sure!

X1 and the new shield library at the announcement looks great (ie the doom pack) and a controller and it's AndroidTV.

The obox will have the K1 at launch and will have a harddrive! and be modular , so you can (in theory) swap it out with a X1.. whether that happens is a gamble.. ie mojo getting kitkat:silly:

Tronsmart Draco Telnos is impressive because of the hardware and a linux port:rolleyes:

Edit, Me personally, I think the MOJO is good enough hardware and software and with ports of CM12 and AndroidTV even more so.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 AM ----------

I liked ouya from the start, but when the dev kits came out and saw how cheap the controllers were with missing start/select buttons:mad: then the free the funds scam then no need to make it free.. nah..

I'm surprised people are buy the hardware, let alone the games!

I'm guessing ouya must have a shelf presences at big chain stores.. mah:silly:

They might fold someday and get bought out by someone like snail games which is making the obox:rolleyes:
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
Does the Cm mod have a port for Ouya Everywhere? When they got more units in with the Tegra 3 that has about finished me as far as the Ouya console.I mean how stupid is that to spend money that could go to building Ouya 2?.Seems they make one f??k up after another. It blows my mind :cyclops:

I just wish the shield had a harddrive. I am going to stick it out with the Mojo and Draco for awhile and see how it all comes together.
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
No, Shatshi Matrix tried but reverted back to madcatz's jellybean firmware.
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
Shatshi Matrix is still on CM12. I've posted the updated Ouya Everywhere apks in the Ouya Fourms. He is currently testing to see if the updated files will work on CM12 and will hopefully post positive results.
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
Was trying to wait for Shatshi Matrix to report the results, but haven't heard anything. Since there have been a few that downloaded the updated OuyaApk files and have been quiet, I figured I'd update the MOJO and find out for myself.

End Result: The update OuyaApks (1.2.897) ARE WORKING with CM12.

So once again you can have OUYA EVERYWHERE on MOJO but now with lollipop, and now use apps that manage overscan that is supported on Lollipop.
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
This will be my first time flashing a OS on Android manually. I noticed there are a couple methods that can be used. Which is the easiest with good documentation for a newbie? I am looking forward to the CM mod as I hear it's great? Also would anyone be willing to assist me with the the Ouya install not sure where to get the source files? I do have some games from Ouya I would like to keep. Thanks for your patience with me I did manage to root so this can't be that difficult :silly:
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
1) I used an app from the play store called "Flashify" to backup kernel, and recovery.

2) I placed the latest build, recommended gapps onto an sd card from the CM12 page. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57575652&postcount=1

3) I used "Flashify" to enter recovery mode and followed the installation instructions from the CM12 page.

4) After installation and setup I installed the updated OuyaApks I posted here. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=59461876&postcount=51

From here, currently I'm trying to restore root. Still looking through the forums to see if there are existing answers before trying something on my own. Good luck with your upgrade.
[M.O.J.O. General] mrbill1357:
Root is included in CM 12 rom, look in settings privacy. I think its called privacy guard.
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Ha, that's really nice of him :confused: :crying: :mad:

Anyway, thanks for letting the mojo ouya fans know :good:
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
Okay I followed above. I copied zip file to sdcard. Downloaded flashify. In flashify I ran backup no problem. I then choose flash from zip, choose mod file, in pop up choose wipe per instructions. It then asks if I want to boot to recovery, I select yes. It then boots to recovery starts to flash and says error. I then reboot it goes back to stock rom? I obviously am probably missing something stupid :cyclops: What am I missing?
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
I didn't mention flashing custom recovery (TWRP) in here because I did it prior any of the steps I mention. Stock recovery will not install cm12. Place tarp image on sd card and use "flashify" to install. Once custom recovery is successfully installed then perform the steps mentioned before. My apologies for my assumption.
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
Replied on the wrong post

I quick replied on my phone earlier to this question but to the wrong post. Please look at the previous post.
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
Does the zip file need to be unzipped to the sdcard? Flashify has a option for zip files? I sent a email to Madcatz to see if they would still honor the warranty with CM12 installed. Was curious how they respond.

The Draco still has to use foldermount for external storage :crying: They do have very good support which sure is a refreshing change. Antutu tests out very close to 60,000 :cowboy: Kodi is awesome on this box the extra ram sure does make a difference with buffering. I am sure the X1 shield will still be faster but the Draco is no slouch.
[M.O.J.O. General] Capt.Obvious:
Do not unzip the file. Just place on the card and select the zip file in Flashify. More additional in of here. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=59636374&postcount=1
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:

[M.O.J.O. General] bloodgnome:
Well congratulations on the cheater-box with Allloser A80 SOC. You're happy with your 60.000 or more Antutu Points ? Then go to your build.prop and delete the ro.sys.hiritsu line which they use to cheat then you get about 36.000 Antutu points...which is not far from the Mojo. Read more here: http://www.cnx-software.com/2015/01/11/so-this-is-how-allwinner-a80-cheats-at-antutu-benchmark/

Also run Androbench...Mojo has way faster EMMc Speeds.

Sorry for the rant...but after this (and other incidents in the past) I simply hate Allwinner as a Company...
[M.O.J.O. General] wastate2014:
Seems I have read that someplace. I have never put much in benchmarks. My primary interest was in the extra ram,storage and expansion slots. it runs fine for me. The OS needs work.

[Q] [Q&A] What, exactly, do I need to enable wifi tether on VZW without subscribing?

I am the new owner of a slightly used HTC One M8 on Verizon. Previous owner already OTA'd to Lollipop (thanks a lot) but I have not been using the phone long and have no problem doing a factory wipe if need be.

I have no interest, really, in custom ROMs or fancy features, except for exactly one: I NEED to use this phone as a wifi hotspot and I am not giving the crooks at Verizon $30/month for it (I am on unlimited data, hence buying a used phone instead of doing an upgrade).

I am something of an amateur at this, but I did successfully root, S-OFF, etc. my prior phone (HTC Thunderbolt) to work as a WiFi hotspot, so I know the basics.

What, exactly, do I need to have wifi tether? "Unlocked"? "Perma Root"? "S-OFF"? Recovery?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
If you can get S-off you got the rest: unlocked bootloader, ability to flash a custom recovery and root. And you'll need all that to unlock the hotspot feature.

The bad news is, there is only Sunshine to achieve it, the LP version has not been released and from what I hear it won't work on the latest 5.0.1 VZW update.....

But there's always hope...

I am having this problem in cyanogenmod, and also I had in omnirom and it is getting annoying.

My external sdcard is being mounted twice, which cause music programs to display duplicate entries for songs, and this sort of issues.

Not a big issue, but just an annoying one.

Investigating a bit, I found that it is mounted twice:

cat /proc/mounts | grep sdcard1

/dev/block/vold/179:49 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard1 fuseblk rw,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096 0 0

/dev/fuse /storage/sdcard1 fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1023,group_id=1023,default_permissions,allow_other 0 0

One with fuse, and the other one with vold.

Is there any way to have it mounted only 1 time? Either disabling fuse or disabling vold? In this case, which one should be better to disable?

Thanks for any hints about this, as I don't really know what else to search to fix this.
