[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wgary:
I got the BlueAnt V12 headset, which has a vibrating feature AND an LCD display to display incoming calls (number only) and status (nice). This is working very well for me. It also has a very good range. I left my phone in the car and came into the house... and it was still connected. I have been keeping it in my shirt pocket or, if sans pocket like today, on the included lanyard, which is fine if you don't mind the fashion statement. Using voice dial, the BlueAnt is essentially a mini-phone.

Also the speakerphone feature on the phone itself is also very usable, best I've seen. Signal strength has been better than any phone to date. All in all, as a phone, I would give it a solid rating... if you can get past not having being able to hold it up to your ear.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] cayotte:
As an alternative bluetooth headset besides i.Tech Clip D, try Jabra BT8010 that is also able to show contact names when using with Jetware.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
I think these are all good ideas but i still prefer my solution.

Yesterday for example I was able to take my pup for a walk in my shorts and tee shirt with my samsung sat merrily and comfortably in my pocket. The idea of having my Ameo swinging round my neck by a Lanyard with a Bluetooth device on my ear is slightly frightening - particularly given the delicate nature of the microdrive and the possibility of being both mugged and garotted at the same time.

I don't need an Ameo when I'm going to the shops or popping out into town, but its there for me whenever i need it - ready to connect just as easily to my phone as it would to a bluetooth headset. The only disadvantage I can see is that a Bluetooth 1.2 connection does not have the same bandwidth as a direct HSDPA connection through the device itself. However in practise I have found there to be great difference in browsing speed using Wifi, HSDPA through the Ameo itself or HSDPA through a BT DUN connection.

The benefits, I think, clearly outweigh the drawbacks.

Any thoughts?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] boinger66:
Well to me i just find it slightly impractical to to carry two devices around... for example when u want to use gprs on the ameo do you switch the sim card?

just seems a bit much to do to avoid having to use a bluetooth headset
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
I don't think it's any more impractical than carrying a bluetooth headset around. i would say it's more convenient really as the ameo is very cumbersome to have on one's person at all times .

For GPRS I never use the Ameo's built in transmitter- as I said I just have a bluetooth connection to my other phone which gives me very fast browsing speeds in itself, but where available i also use WiFi.

I see no need to use my Ameo as a phone outright - as it stands I have all the browsing and multimedia capabilities I need wherever I need them with my Ameo, coupled with the convenience of a 'normal' phone for making and receiving calls and texting on the move.

All this with no Sim-swapping in sight!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] CPA:
can't the dog carry the Ameo?????

he may need it for the weather forecast.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
Haha very good. I'll have to take a look on Pucci for a doggy Ameo travel case. Seems like a must-have.

Seriously though I love my Ameo: it's got serious wow factor as a portable browsing device, emailer and music/video player and the build quality is SUPERB. (I really like the keyboard too despite the lack of backlight). However i can't help but feel that all that 'wow' factor is immediately negated once someone calls you and you are forced to fumble for your bluetooth headset (or unfasten wallet, take keyboard off, turn volume down and hold monolythic metal brick against head). Any avoidance of using the device as a phone without losing any other key features is in my opinion a wise move, especially if it lessens the chance of my Ameo being seen/stolen, or getting knocked about.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] CPA:
seriously

the d-clip can sit in your ear on a walk and no-one will notice it.

the mic clips on your neckline

to answer the call you put your finger to your ear and push the button on the earplug, very simple, no fumbling.

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] leoni1980:
thiis a lot more practical than using the built-in speakerphone! theres still the major drawback of having to carry the handset with you at all times though. whilst this is fine if you have a jacket or combats with big pockets its still never goong to be practical in a lot of instances; for example if you wanted to go out of an afternoon and sit in a beergarden with your mates. i just dont feel comfortable having such a big expensive item on me. as i imagine most people got their ameos on upgrade i wonder how many of them have kept their old phone for more practical communication when big pockets arent available.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] mapre64:
... i'll buy my dog (a big bernese-mountain-dog) next week an Ameo !

... what's about the quality (sound & volume) of Ameo's hands-free? - is it usable in the car?

- is it good enough to take calls when "Flocki" (the dog) is carrying the Ameo?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] apd:
Yes, absoultely (although his / her fur is kept out the way of the mic).

I fidn that the Ameo comes into its own in partnership with a Jabra BT8010 - a fantatsic little device.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nilism:
So I updated to a new ROM and I have damaged my recover or I need to update recovery somehow.

The ROM launches and I have ADB support but not google play services or root working

I can access my bootloader (blue LED)but I don't know how to fastboot a new recovery from there

When I go to access recovery (pink LED) the recovery never loads. It used to be a CWM/TWRP dual boot, neither are working.

So I am guessing I need to flash a boot.img from the bootloader using fastboot? I can't find any boot.imgs anymore. Just all this one click **** that doesn't work at all for some reason.

Advice?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mikey94:
On which ROM are you?

Is it AOSP, CM or Stock based?

Is your bootloader unlocked?

If you are on windows, try using nuts dual recovery installer (if you are on stock based rom). But before u use it, u should install ADB system-wide or try to put it into a folder directly on C:/

If you are on e. g. CM12.1 you need to "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (you find them in the General Section)

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nilism:
Ok, so lots of info here you might want. =)

Yes Bootloader unlocked. I WAS on paranoid ROM kitkat. It pushed a LP OTA update, which silly me, I installed. So right now the phone is on an AOSP based LP ROM, coming from a KK ROM. There was a dual recovery approperiate for that PA KK ROM installed before.

Anyway, I downloaded a recovery from the link you posted and I am currently installing a backup from before I did all these silly and naive things. =p

My next project... How do I go back to stock so I can try a none AOSP ROM? (o:'
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ticktock666:
two ways :

- you can download a stock rom ftf file from the official thread here, then use flashtools to flash that file (a more complicated version would be to create your own ftf file using xpirifirm and flashtools), OR

- You can download a pre-rooted zip (also available on the forums here) and install that through your current recovery.

Either way make sure you do a full wipe, stock and AOSP don't like each other much from my experience.

http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z2/general/ftf-cutomized-23-1-0-726-cda-1281-9809-t3082166

1. Go here and download the 23.1.A.1.28 FTF and prerooted zip. (It's the latest stock firmware version) and copy the zip file on your phone.

2. Go to recovery

3. Do a factory reset (wipe)

4. Flash the prerooted zip

5. Shut down your phone (NO REBOOT!)

6. Go to Flashtool -> Flashmode and load the FTF file

7. remove everything in "wipe"

8. on "exclude" tick the following: PARTITION, TA and SYSTEM

9. Click on flash and connect your phone via flashmode and let it flash.

10. Disconnect your phone and start

11. You are done. let the phone boot and settle and reboot one time. Now you are on stock with recovery and root.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImmoralCore:
Hello !

I recently bought a used Z3 6603, and wanted to update it to lollipop.

But it seems it has a unlocked bootloader (according to service menu) and when i recieved it, it was factory reset, but some 3rd party apps were still installed.

One of them Super SU, so it was rooted.

I was told that i could update the firmware if i just used the Full Uninstall feature in Super Su, so i did that.

I still can't update using sony companion, becouse it knows the software is not the original one.

And i cant reinstall super su, its saying that there is no SU binary installed and the program cant install it.

I have flashed phones before, but it was really a long time ago, so im asking for some help to fix this.

Its running 4.4.4 build 23.0.1.A.5.77 and stock rom i think.

Please tell me what to do, and what info you might need !

I want to have the phone in lollipop, but everything stock, no root, no bootloader etc.

And somewhere I read something about DRM keys. Please help me with fixing that aswell thank you.

Regards ImmoralCore
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTeslaCoil:
Your DRM keys are lost forever.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImmoralCore:
Ok, so they are lost even if I use the first backup that was made by the person I bought it from ?

DRM=Hardcoded=Once unlocked, always DRM free, even if you use the recovery image ?

And the rest of the questions, what am I supposed to do to get stock lollipop?

In the matter of fact it does not matter if its unlocked or locked, I just want legit lollipop, with the possibility to update regularly. (But if root is possible at the same, it can still be rooted)

Thanks for your reply !
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTeslaCoil:
You need the TA backup. Not system backup.

And careful not to restore some other TA.

If the previous owner backed up TA, good. If not, no chance to recover them.

Download your specific firmware in ftf format and flash it with Flashtool.

Make a clean install.

You cannot recieve OTA with an unlocked bootloader, only if you relock, but there is no point in doing that if the DRM keys are lost.

So, from where you stand, keep it rooted and unlocked, because you can do much more with it : Custom ROM' s [at the moment stock is best]...custom kernels with recovery...mods...etc.

After you flash the ftf, flash via adb a custom kernel with recovery and from recovery flash SuperSU update, as a flashable zip, that will root the phone and install SuperSU.Search also for busybox flashable zip.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImmoralCore:
Ok, I will try that then, but if I use flashtool to update to lollipop, will I still be able to root easy, or should I reinstall 4.4.4 clean, then root, fix recovery kernel and everything, and then lollipop or what goes first?

Does flash/kernel etc affect the fact that it has an unlocked bootloader ? do i need to do anything with that, or do it stay unlocked?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
If you have unlocked the bootloader it is always a trivial matter to root.

Just flash an insecure kernel.

If one does not exist use [NUT]'s online kernel builder to make one with recovery incorporated in it. Its very straightforward and an automated process.

So, update using flashtool, flash your custom kernel, and you have root and recovery.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImmoralCore:
1. Sorry for my noobish question, but define insecure kernel?

2. Did I get it right? I read about ppl downgrading their phones to 4.4.4 and then installing stuff. And for me it does not matter wich version it is, becouse the unlocked bootloader makes it easy to flash, even what version you are running?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
1) a rooted kernel.

2) If you have unlocked there is no need to follow any of the locked bootloader guides, they are a waste of your time. One of the points point of unlocking the phone is to easily get root. You just flash a custom kernel to gain root.

If you have a locked bootloader then you have to go through all the fuss of downgrading etc etc.... but with an unlocked bootloader its so easy and straightforward
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ImmoralCore:

Has anyone deodex and successfully installed a stock system image yet? I haven't tried this yet but I am thinking of giving it a shot sometime soon. I was wondering if there were any potential issues of doing this such as wifi calling or what not. The reason I'm doing this is because I'm s-off'd and I'm hoping a deodexed system will allow xposed to successfully work.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] minotauri:
Hi,

No I haven't had time to work on it any further. I am using a mac so the deodex arm64 tools are all in windows so that's been one challenge, but I was able to do some of that work on my work laptop. The other issue is that I am having trouble getting my updater binary to work. It's failing in TWRP. I'm going to set up a linux environment and install archikitchen when I have more free time, but I've been pretty busy lately.

For whatever reason, I was able to get my original zip to install and reboot and even do the android upgrading function, but then it rebooted into a bootloop. I revised the script to set permissions properly, but then it just fails updating. Sighs.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] minotauri:
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I made a few different attempts at system images but all cause bootloops. I may have to try re-doing the deodex part again, but I used my own zip and script as well as one generated by ArchiKitchen and all caused bootloops, so it's probably my deodex files failing. Will try again when I have more free time.
