Kaizer Comm. Manager

Hello JUVS,

Thanks very much for the HTC Kaizer home plugin . It installed fine and all tabs are working great. It's only the brightness button on the launcher that does not function - but i've replaced that with another function.

I have a problem with the Kaizer Comm. Manager .cab.

I get a message that the installation was unsuccessfull. The program or setting cannot be installedbecause it does not have sufficient system permissions. Any ideas?

You can see my set up in my signature.

Edit: Thanks for the post SaarAvigour. #140 All's well now

Thanks again for the excellent work.

Re. ComMgr. You may have to SR device and reinstall. Been there, did it, installed OK.

Is it worth to try to install the Kaiser HTC home plugin into a WM 5 WWE device? Or I can cause serious problems by doing that?

(I have P3300 -Artemis- with its original WWE ROM)

Kaizer Comm Manager now installed

Thanks for the advice. The Comm. Manager is now working.

As previouslly requested it would be great is someone could add 3G to the empty button.(To connect/disconnect) IMHO.

Who needs the impending new ROM from HTC with all these great offerings from our Cooks. I think our Hybrid versions may be ahead of the Official Hermes offering that we are waiting for!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] SaarAvigour:
Glad could help. Would you please check if your Wi-Fi button works. Mine refuses no matter what. Strange can't read it happens to others.

Thx.

why after installing HTC_home plug-in desn't work contacts ?

After deinstalling plugin contacts still doesn't work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] neves8:
Thanks. Work great in my D810!

Does there is any way to add my custom shortcut to the launch tab? for example .exe in my storage card.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] vasp2005:
Just make shortcut in Start menu and it will show in selection dialog
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] swedbass:
Yes, but only if I'm connected via wifi, since I have T-mobile's $5.99 plan. If you have another carrier or a higher T-mo plan there shouldn't be any problem.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] swedbass:
You mean the "favorites" tab in the Home plugin? Perhaps if you disable the home plugin, soft reset, then install plugin it should work.

FIX FOR KAIZER COMM. MANAGER WiFi BUTTON

Hello gvry,

A great big thanks for posting the registry fix to get the WiFi button functioning on the Kaizer Comm. Manager.

It worked like a charm!

BTW. How did you happen to stumble on the reg. fix, or is this taken directly from the Kaizer?

But thanks a ton friend.

there's a link for the new color icons, but when i open with winzip it says file is corrupt/not a valid winzip file. i (and others) would be grateful is a kind soul could repost the zip file or send to me via pm. thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jomo25:
You gotta copy it to your PPC and unzip it there. Copy the ZIP file to your phone, navigate to it via File Manager on the PPC. then click on it and you'll see the files. Extract all of them to the Windows directory with Overwrite enabled (you might want to back up all the .png files first).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] d.cortez:
jomo25, thanks for taking time to respond to my question. yes, i'm aware of what needs to be done. however, downloading and copying to my PC or my PPC yields the same result: invalid/corrupt zip file. the file does not contain anything. i've tried on 2 different PC's same result.

is there a way to edit the profiles? i dont normally make my phone fully silent or vib only just make the vol lower would love to do this with this app. i have read the entire thread i may have missed it tho.

thanks for any help.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jomo25:
Nope, didn't see that info anywhere. Not sure if the profiles are editable. I don't see any obvious way to configure it either.

Anyone else know if its possible? If so, how?

So rather than 100+ people re-inventing the wheel - is anyone willing to post their copy of the rip, along with status? I stripped out a few packages like Sliding Sounds, Quick GPS, and Video Dialer, but there's a lot more crap in there and no point in everyone doing everything.

Forgive me if I missed a post pointing to the packages or cabs that are/may be already done, but if they are in there somewhere - can the first post get updated?

Note I haven't tested them yet, just verified that they would build correctly. WmpPluginToday.dll is in both the WMP Today Plugin as well as the Home Plugin. They're different sizes, so it may be necessary to split up the WMP Today packages - one for new Home, one for old... Hmmmm....

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] format c:\:
Hello all!

Newly registered here, has been lurking around for some time though.

I just received my replacement OnePlus due to the death of the first one and wanted to do a custom recovery and install Oxygen or Carbon for a little better battery life and back up possibilities.

My problem is: I can't get the phone to boot into recovery.

I did some research and people mentioned trying TWRP and PhilZ's recoveries - those had no result for me.

I have followed official video from OnePlus and also tried C4ETech's way for those two mentioned above.

The ones I tried were PhilZ's 6.50.2 and 6.58.8, for TWRP I used 2.8.5.1 and 2.8.4.1

Tried to do it with OPO toolbox and that didn't work either (TWRP, CWM, PhilZ tested)- all the functions would work, but once I flash the phone - it would boot into stock CM11.

When I try to boot it into recovery, it would stay on the first logo for 7-8 seconds, after that vibrates again and goes into stock CM11.

The same would happen if I go to advanced boot and boot into recovery.

I have changed the options under Developers folder as required already.

I have tried flashing the phone on two computers - win7 x64 and Win 8.1 x64.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have the phone for almost two weeks already and still can't ring myself to setting it up because of previous experience of data loss. (not worried about pictures - those are on Gdrive :) )
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Are you checking the md5 of the recovery files after downloading to ensure that they haven't become corrupt during the download? Exactly which recoveries have you flashed (full filenames please)? Also, is the flash with fastboot definitely succeeding? I'd suggest not using a toolkit because they inevitably cause problems.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] format c:\:
I did verify the checksums for TWRP recovery files. They matched.

The ones I used: openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.1-bacon and openrecovery-twrp-2.8.5.1-bacon

I was not able to find md5 data for PhilZ files, just certificates.

I tried toolkit after going through command prompt. I'm not sure if it is succeeding, nothing happens as far as phone rebooting by itself. The process seems to run and say that it was successful in the prompt.

Do you want me to go though it and post the screenshot?

I've tried not doing "fastboot reboot" command, as it was mentioned in the "Noobs" section - still no result.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] format c:\:
Forgot to add philz_touch_6.50.2-bacon and philz_touch_6.58.8-bacon were used.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Is there any reason you're flashing older versions of TWRP? They're pretty outdated now. Grab the latest version from here:

https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/twrp-2.8.7.0-bacon.img.html

As long as it says it's successful in the terminal window it should have flashed ok. What build of CM is currently on your phone?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] format c:\:
It did work! Now I'm a happy camper :D Trying to install Oxygen right now.

It was on 11.0. My old phone was running that OS as well, but it was having issues with screen artifacts I have upgraded to 12.0 and system was running fine for 2 day, after that screen died completely. Buttons at the bottom of the phone were working, but it looked like just the back light was on.

Huge thanks to you, Heisenberg!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] format c:\:
I was flashing older versions, because I found only those from the official video link. It sent me to techerrata page and the latest one over there was and still is 2.8.5.1

Awesome, very glad to see you got it working. I realised after my post that your current CM version is in the title of the thread, lol, oops. That Techarrata site doesn't get updated anymore as they have a new site now, so the latest builds can always be found here:

woow! Google camera is well optimized, camera fv5 is good too...but to have a better comparison of course need to have the LG Camera of stock firmware, i know you dont have it but for people who are in stock with stock camera app isnt fair to do this comparison!

one last question, im on stock, as everyone know the original camera dont have advanced controls like ISO, brightness, ambient light, so, which of this 4 cameras have those functions? because i didnt install them, and i feel my stock camera is taking photos with so much noise i dont know why!

thanks

Use XCam, it's the stock camera with those controls.

Hey guys I Just moved back to cloudy 1.2 (Personal favorite) and I have been busy this couple of days, so maybe this weekend I will take the pictures with those cameras stock and xcam again and maybe with an object that has more color so we can check the saturation and low light pictures too.

You should use this mod, V1 to be exact, located here http://xdaforums.com/sprint-lg-g3/themes-apps/optimized-lg-g3-camera-mod-lollipop-t3009111 and then install this camera, lenovo super camera, located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2665714 and try a comparison image.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
I'm really Disappointed with Z3+ and I believe the Z3 is better because of the following reasons :

1- Z3 screen brightness is markedly stronger (you have to turn off the auto brightness in both of them ).. Even I felt the Z3 Screen is clearer!!

2- The frontal speakers in Z3 are better and louder especially in hard rock for example..

3- the battery life in Z3 is better

4- I'm disappointed with the build quality of Z3+ especially the back glass.. I felt it's even a plastic !!.. the Z3 build quality is noticeably better

5- believe or not.. I use the main camera to take a selfie especially while using 20.7 because the target will be farther in the photo frame (the camera lens is wider) ... and the secondary camera lens of Z3+ in skype or any video calling apps is not wider !! it's the same of Z3 !!.. this is very important for me in video calling apps

SONY what is going on !! please come back to the battle soon !! you are the best !!​
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Belal94:
How about the heating problem?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
It's better after the latest update.. I should talk about it but this is a known issue
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
Z3+, as the name says, was probably not meant for Z3 owners. On top of that, we all know about Sony's two flagships per year policy. At least they called it Z3+. But Z3 itself should have been called Z2 Slim (not even Z2+) lol Z3 was the most underwhelming addition to the Z series.

Coming from a Z2, I found Z3+ as a perfect upgrade. It brought all the jazz Z2 slim ( I mean Z3 ) did along with the upgrades that actually matter - 64 Bit SD810, Adreno 430, DDR4, LDAC, faster LTE Cat 9 (300mbps for now which is still > Z3's 150mbps), 5mp front cam, better rear cam sw. It was quite easy for me to take these over Z3's louder speakers & better battery life.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
ok but why Sony made the screen and speakers worse in Z3+ ??? it must at least keep them same !!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] addicted1900:
Did it ever came to your mind that you are somehow biased by the overall bad reviews? Do you really think you are able to judge without a bias?

Sorry I can't stand this complaining and whining about this device.

It's the same on all new devices. At first there is a big hype, then comes the reality which is behind the expectations. Same thing with the nexus 9 I own and nexus 10 I've owned. Both are great devices, but there was a great amount of people who were talking bull****.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
Read what I wrote slowly and see by yourself in real life while comparing both of them as I said exactly and tell me then..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] tomo100brt:
Only thing that is bull**** on this device is procesor. We must admit that Snapdragon 810 is heating. After update things with heating are better but Sony have to fix laging UI especially when phone is hot. Other than that phone is good. I don't understand why is screen on Z3+ worse than Z3 when screen on Z3 was calibrated to cold sometimes white looks gently blue. You can say what you want but Z3+ has better screen to me. Not to mention better viewing angles on Z3+.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
Cold colors issue can be reduced by adding more red in white balance settings

But how to fix the lower brightness ???
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] tomo100brt:
Yes, you are right. Brightness can't be fixed. And Z3+ has brighter screen.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
You mean Z3
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
I gotta throw in my thoughts on this as well.

Have had the Z2, Z3 and now the Z3+. While overheating is no longer a (big) issue after reflash in SBM or PC Companion, I kinda feel like the Z3 was snappier (lagged less), camera launched faster, apps didn't crash as often, battery lasted longer, and charged up faster. And other niggles.. (no root, for instance.. CM12.1 would be blisteringly fast on this thing).

However, I'm confident that these are issues that stem from Sony hastily putting out an unfinished .24 update/5.0.2 update.. not hardware.

Oh, and I actually liked the Z3 matte copper finish better than the more glossy they put on the Z3+.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
Exactly dude

and the speakers ?? I'm really shocked.. Z3 was amazing in music !!!

and about the build quality just knock your finger many times on the back of Z3+ and you feel that's it's plastic !!

why sony whyyyyy???
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
Had to revisit this thread.

During the past week, I did a factory reset on the phone itself (no computer involved). I did this after doing a PC Companion repair phone thingie the week before.

Holy change in response time, Batman!

It's truly back to Z3 standards, and then some! I really really recommend anyone being begrudged over buying the phone to do a full wipe, first with PC Companion and then on the phone it self. Not sure wether it was the one or the other, or the combination.. but everything from battery life, to heat issues, to lagging is -gone-. Speakers might still be bad, don't know, never use them =)

Now, if we only could get a good root... :p
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Culex316:
Really? Heat issues are gone too? What about when you use it for GPS navigation or extensive web browsing?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
I use GPS (Waze) every morning to work. With OTA update applied it used roughly 20% on the trip to the office, and was HOT when I took it out of the car. After wipe (And rewipe) before today, it used 12% on the same trip. It still gets hot doing it, mind you, but not nearly as hot as it did!

One issue I have found is apps with access to radio (i.e. data signal) keeps it alive (As reported by battery monitoring app), even if the app is dormant. I believe this is a 5.0.2 / .24 issue though, didn't happen on the Z3 I had.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
But you forgot about the screen brightness ;)

it's not strong as much as Z3 ;)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
ohhhh

and even Z3 after 5.1.1 has an over heating problem now... navigating with direct sun .. my Z3 was goona explode !!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
Can't say I have noticed any difference in screen brightness, though!

Z3 got warm, like my Z3+ does now.. nothing out of the ordinary there :)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] janjan:
I returned my z3+ two times now. There was a gap between screen and the frame. Poor build quality vs LG G4.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
dude please turn off the adaptive brightness first on both of them and set it to maximum level and you will be surprised ;)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] deecept:
I have never used full brightness, on any devices.

The Z3 might be brighter, but it makes no difference for me. Not choosing a good smartphone for features you don't really use is silly.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
for me it's important
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
FYI, maximum brightness kicks in while you're in adaptive mode. So higher brightness in manual mode doesn't necessarily mean a brighter display. It all depends on the calibration. I don't think anyone uses manual mode and you still have control over adaptive brightness through the slider.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] smiskkissen:
All the reviews say that the Z3+ is more bright if thats is important to you

[IMG="Exampel"]http://static.xperiablog.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Xperia-Z3-Plus-Display_2.jpg[/IMG]
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
they did not turn off the adaptive brightness

I mentioned that so clearly many times
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Hani88:
dude calibration only for touch sensitivity !!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] smiskkissen:
I see. Sry. Didn't read the whole thread. Care to post comparing pictures?

EDIT: It does sound weird since Sony mentions the brighter display during the Z3+ launch. Supposed to be 16% brighter
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
Calibration is needed for pretty much everything in life. I meant display brightness (a.k.a slider) calibration in this particular case.

Nothing's weird. The display is brighter than Z3. As I said, you have to be in adaptive mode (with the slider maxed out & the light sensor blasted with huge amount of light ) to get the maximum brightness. Now in manual brightness mode, Z3 might be brighter (say x nits) , but that brightness is still lower than the maximum brightness you'd get from adaptive mode in both Z3 (y nits) & Z3+ (z nits).

In one word, z > y > x
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] smiskkissen:
One could also argue that a colder whitebalance (Z3) is perceived brighter than a warmer (Z3+). If you cool down the WB on Z3+ it would seem brighter.

WB you can adjust, but the vibrance will always be better on Z3+.
