[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] TigerTim36:
I've tried all the settings mentioned here but cannot get Google Maps to work and now my TomTom doesn't either.. I foolishly didn't note the gps settings before changing them :( I am running the latest version of g maps and TomTom 6. My device is the T-Mobile Ameo. Can anyone help me with the settings I need to get them to work.

Many Thanks

Tim
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Pyrofer:
I just turn OFF the ms software GPS management and use the hardware port in all my apps.

Com5 9600

That works fine for me in all apps now, including the new googlemaps.

You can ONLY run one at a time, and have to totally shutdown the other apps.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] TigerTim36:
Hi Pyrofer, Thanks for the info but could you posibly be a bit more specific for me......do you mean that in settings/system/gps you have the program port set to "none" and the hardware port to "com5" and do you have the box ticked for manage gps automatically?

Then what settings do you have set on google maps?

Many Thanks

Tim

No Worries, got it working now on both......

Settings/System/GPS...... Program Port: (None) Hardware Port: Com 5 at 9600 and the manage gps automatically is ticked

Google Maps Menu/Options/Track Location Settings: Set Manually: Com 5 at 9600

Both TomTom and Google Maps working fine :)

Heh, found it on my own a couple of days ago happily unaware that it was previously broken. :)

I've been goofing around with it and either it's just me or there really is no way to export markers from the program.

Is it really so?

I've found another program that is capable of it:

http://www.s-gps.com/gps2ge/

But it's payware, so before I go buy it, could someone confirm if it's possible to create .kml placemarkers in Google Map?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] black_horse_88:
Hi

New to Lollipop so excuse me for this noobie question.

I'm downloading Lollipop custom ROMs for the G3.

I liked the stock lollipop for the G3 menu, drawer, etc...

All the Lollipop ROMs I've downloaded looks different, like a set back version, white background for app drawer, simple menu, less customisable.

I'm really confused, is that how the official Lollipop looks and G3 stock is using special one?

Flashed more than 10 ROMs from 5.0.1 to 5.1.x, all of them looks different than stock, except ChupaChups looked like the stock.

So how do I tell? I want to download custom ROM similar to stock design, but can't figure it out.

Here pic to what I mean.

Stock G3 Lollipop.

Custom ROMs looked like this.

Any explanations?

Thanks.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viking_vp3:
it depends on what base the ROM cooker use to create his/her rom.

if you use cyanogen mod base ROMs as the cyanogen is close to stock android the rom would be close to stock android

the lg customize it's UI a lot and it's whole new world in comparison to stock android

use roms that use lg stock rom as a base such as cloudy
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] black_horse_88:
Ok now I get it, it make all sense now :) thanks!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] viking_vp3:
your very welcome

and one thing if you like a rom and only problem is app drawer background use a third party launcher such as Nova and customize anything you like. launchers give you a lot of option

Hey guys! So we all know that the camera can open in 0.7 sec, BUT not like the ascend mate 7 yourself have to take the pic is there an opportunity with an app that if I open the camera by double click it will take directly a pic? I prefer an app without root permission! Thanks!!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quangtran1:
Doesn't double-pressing the Home button activate the camera?

Edited: oh I see what you're wanting, you want to trigger the shutter automatically. A few years ago, there was an app called InstaCamera that automatically snapped a shot as soon as the camera app was launched. I don't know if it still exists today.

I've downloaded the Customized DE ROM with XperiFirm and created a prerooted .zip with NUTs DualRecovery with PRFCreator.

D5503_Customized DE_1279-6978_14.5.A.0.270_R1D

UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip

Z1C-lockeddualrecovery2.8.15-RELEASE.flashable.zip

The file can be flashed with a custom recovery so you need to have to have this already. You'll receive the current (second) release of Sony's 5.0.2 Firmware for the Z1 Compact (D5503) with root and recovery.

I've flashed dirty over the 242 Build without any problem so I would first try without wipes. If you're having any problems I recommend a factory reset.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] ronin.:
Hi,

I am coming from .108 and use CWM.

When i try to flash the .zip, it prints me following messages:

-------------------------------------

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Installing update...

Install from sdcard complete.

-------------------------------------

But this process takes maximum a second. And after a reboot nothing has changed... Has anyone of you an idea what went wrong?

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nagusia:
I made my own prerooted version of the customised UK ROM - all good but got the infamous Lollipop charging bug. Wouldn't charge beyond 88% and the LED starting to blink in an irregular fashion. I restored back to Kitkat and all okay. Any problems with this ROM in terms of charging? Do the customised ROMS vary much from region to region?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] AMDFenics:
nothing else, that it shows you? Like opening package, .... fixing permissions ...

I was also surprised, only took a few minutes to install. 2-3

Did you checked the package? ~ 1.2 GB
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nagusia:
Wouldn't work for me. It went through all the optimizing apps business and I was able to unlock my SIM - then WiFi wouldn't start and on reboot I got into a bootloop with the blue swirly screen for a few minutes and then rebooting. I tried factory reset but didn't help. Same result as the 14.5.A.0.270 R2D Customized DE version posted yesterday.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] ronin.:
Yes, nothing more. The package size is indeed 1.2GB...

This is really strange behaivor...
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nagusia:
On doing this again with a clean flash it worked. I think if you've already done a dirty flash, then a restore, there must be too much junk around for a dirty flash to work.

Can I flash the TWRP recovery by the CWM recovery?

And will my old backups, which I made with CWM also work with the TWRP?

And does the flashing really work with locked bootloader? I wonder because the boot.elf is within the ZIP file.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] fz2:
Can someone explain what is meant by dirty flash? From TWRP do I just select install and install the zip? Or restore, and then select nothing to be deleted?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Josch110:
Dirty Flash means, you did not wipe anything. You just install the new Rom over your old Rom. Sometimes Old Rom and new Rom have to many changes, and then you can go into Trouble. In my Opinon, a fresh install, is always better. Make a Backup of your Data and try a dirty Flash. If you got Problems, then you can do a clean Flash.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] kickling:
Hi guys, I tried to flash TWRP and now my phone doesn't boot. However, I can still connect into flashmode using Flashtool.

Can someone please help me, and tell me if I can use Flashtool and the files from this stock prerooted ROM to fix it, and what steps I need to follow?

Or, do I need to Flash an old original ROM and start all over again?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] fz2:
I don't know whether what you want to do is possible, but I'd bet that by the time someone tells you how you could already achieve what you want using the "longer" method.

1. Flash 14.4.A.0.108 with Flashtool

2. Activate USB debugging

3. Install lockeddualrecovery

4. Boot into TWRP

5. Wipe + Install the zip
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] kickling:
Thanks mate. I was trying not to wipe anything because I forgot to backup my messages. Oh well.

I ended up doing the super long original method ... Japanese firmware, activate developer tools, then apply UK firmware, then Super user, then finally dualRecovery + another UK firmware + Super User ... THEN finally this latest 1.2gb package. Gah!!

I also found that Philz Touchwiz failed to mount my SD card storage, but TWRP was completely fine.

For future reference, is there an easier way of "starting from scratch" instead of having to hack my way from the original Japanese docomo file?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] fz2:
I'm pretty new to this, but the quickest way I've found is flashing a generic unbranded .108 via FlashTool (I used this). Once you have that flashed you can enable usb debugging+unknown apps and install dualrecovery without being rooted (just select option 3). Once dualrecovery is installed, just boot into TWRP, wipe and install a pre rooted firmware (I've used this and then installed this over it without wiping anything, although I think you should be able to just install the second one directly).

The ones I linked to will preserve dualrecovery and come with SuperSU, so you don't need to do much else from there other than restoring your apps/data.

Good luck!

Camera doesn't take pictures

Hi everyone,

I installed this ROM yesterday (switched from Cyanogenmod 12.1 after it started rebooting frequently for no reason).

I'm happy with this Rom so far, but I have quite a big problem:

the camera isn't working. I tried five different camera apps they all seem to work but when I try to take a picture they either freeze/look like they are saving forever or don't do anything.

Videos still work, I tried saving on external SD and internal memory. I also tried re-flashing the ROM because I thought the problem might have something to do with deleting Google+, some Sony apps, etc via Titanium Backup.

edit: taking a picture with facebook messenger works. this is a really weird problem. Could it have something to do with the camera apps not being able to write the picture-data on the internal or external SD? But why do videos work?

I'd be grateful for any help!

Thank in advance,

mag0r
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] AMDFenics:
just a thought, but maybe there is a problem with your drm keys? Because u came from CM. Try to clean install .242 stock ftf an than flash kernel with trwp to install .270. :rolleyes:
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] mag0r:
Thanks for the help. I had the same thought yesterday after completly wiping everything and trying this rom and another pre-rooted one without positive results. But then I ran out of patience and re-flashed CM12.1.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] sandervanzijl:
I am using this rom and it seems to work very well for the moment.

Just one crazy thing.

sometimes when the phone wakes up and i unlock it, the screen stays dim and grey, as if there is a semitransparent picture in front of the screen.

if i turn of the screen one or two times, it usually wakes op again without this grey dim sheet and i can use the phone in full brightness.

can anyone help me in finding out why this is happening?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] monkei34:
I have a question.

I have the 4.4.4 with root - I have already installed the dual recovery by nut - now for the lollipop with firmware 2.70 must only install the .zip file

I am Italian so it should work in Italy with Italian language right? without any type of problem with the network 4g
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] flensrowi:
Yes, simply install the zip file.

Creating a backup in recovery is always a good idea so you can go back if you don't like it or have forgotten something.

Hi. I have a zero knowledge in rooting. I installed .368 custom de but its not rooted. someone told me to downgrade to .270 for me to be able to update it to .368

but i want to flash a custom de .270 firmware to my z1c

what do you mean by

The file can be flashed with a custom recovery so you need to have to have this already.

What is the thing that i need to have it already?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] flensrowi:
This file is for flashing from a custom recovery. So you need to have a custom recovery to flash it.

Hi,

in the old (and current I believe as well) Nokia phone - and most other pure mobile phones for that matter - you can dial a "p", typically by holding down the "*" for a while. The "p" makes the phone wait a little while before continuing to dial the rest of the number.

I need this feature!!! :-)

I am using some prepaid phone cards for which this feature is really necessary.

So, anyone have a clue how to get a similar functionality on WM5? The "p" certainly does not work ...

Thanks in advance - Andy
[General Topics] mr_yellow:
if you're dialing live, you can dial only the connection number then open the keypad to dial the rest of the keycode manually. If you want to automate it, create a contact with the full number and you can enter in "p" there.

I have a contact for my voicemail which dials the voicemail and waits and the pin + #. this works great with voicecommand cause all I have to do is say "call voicemail" and it'll dial, enter in the password automatically and I don't have to touch the phone at all...
[General Topics] liewithpassion:
Interesting ... I did migrate all my number from my previous phone, where i had the "p" included in the number. The numbers also seemingly came up correctly on the PPC phone. However, when I tried to dial the number, it would not take the complete number with the "p" - I cannot remember exactly what it did, but it did not dial the whole thing. Thats why I thought/ hoped that there is another way. I guess, after what you are saying, I should give it another try ...

And yes, the application that you are describing is very similar to what I want to use. There is a prepaid international call provider, which has a local dial-in number and lets me call abroad for very little money. I call the local number - the service provider recognizes my account by the incoming phone number of my mobile - and then I dial the destination number. For the recognising part however, it is needed that the phone waits a little before it continues to dial the destination number.
[General Topics] liewithpassion:
Alright, alright .... works! Thx for the assurance! Tried it again and it just takes a lot longer - the pause is longer - than it used to be on my Nokia. Also, I do not hear the dialing tones after the "p" anymore, which probably put me off before.

Thanks! Thread closed :p
[General Topics] scottbehr:
Try replacing the "p" with a "," . It will pause for a few seconds once the other side picks up the phone.
