[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Creeperr:
Hi :)

I have a Wiko Cink Peax 2 and I would like to get a new ROM.

It could be any ROM (MIUI, Cyanogen, Stock ROM from another phone etc...).

I have tried to port ROMs from the Lenovo A820 before but there were a lot of bugs so I gave up.

I would appreciate it if the ROM's version were

Android 4.3+

(need this version for my Smart Watch to work).

I have the system files for my phone, if you need them just ask me.

Thank you in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Creeperr:
I have successfully ported a MIUI ROM (4.2) and another ROM (4.4.2) from the Lenovo A820.

However, there are still a couple of bugs.

MIUI ROM

- Camera not working

- Bluetooth not turning on

- Wifi not turning on

KITKAT ROM

- All the bugs of the MIUI ROM

- Speakers not working

- No network (not even asking for my PIN code)

Does anyone know how I could fix these bugs ?

if there are no solution , i can to do a backup of my internal sdcard on my external sdcard or my computer ?

Thank you in advance for your answer
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultramag69:
The sd card MUST be FAT32. If you have a 32gb or less sd card your ok otherwise you need to format your sd card FAT32 then you can copy the stock firmware on and flash it that way.

Well, I am a cheap guy, for the most part. With that stated, I wanted to know if it is free (i.e. no text charges) to send and receive email using the provided outlook application on the 8125 via wifi. I believe AIM costs money, regardless of wifi (using regular AIM). Anyway, I dont care about AIM, but I was just curious about the email situation. Thanks in advance!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] brooks.nl:
using wifi

Whenever I use wifi, there are no hidden fees. For instance, when I'm at home and use my own wifi access point it would be quiet doubtable if I have to pay someone else for using my own gear. But then again, I pay approx 10 euro for unlimited use of gprs. so no data limit.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] MrCyberdude:
Well i love gprs but the costs Pi** me right off.

i downloaded about 1.7mb and i got a AU$25 bill for JUST that data.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dr_tracker:
Well, me being a cheap b***** myself have been doing some testing regarding this. Using WiFi does not charge anything, assuming the HotSpot is free. Using GPRS on my provider (Orange DR) set me back about 30 mins. off my plan per Mb.

BTW Unlimited Data is not an option for me so far, US$50 plus taxes is not cheap.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] brooks.nl:
gprs costs

i pay approx €30,- a month

this is including my flat fee for the data use via gprs

for me in the Netherlands, this is cheap.

of course this is completely dependable of what is affordable for one or another.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-ro-mex:
Hi. Got the Z5 Compact White on Friday and have a problem with call echos.

So, when I call people, or they call me... The other person can hear themselves back on echo. Really loudly. I tested this myself and it is true. But, eventually the noise cancelling kicks in and this disappears. But then if the voice changes the echo comes back.

When I plug in headphones the problem goes away.

The phone software seems to have no options at all for call noise suppression. Nothing at all, so nothing to tweak or test.

I hear no echo on my end.

Tested with many calls to different people and phones.

I did to a Software reset and Sony PC Companion reflashed the firmware but still the same.

The echo is there even if they talk with a very low voice and whisper.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm calling Sony Support in the morning. Kind of hoping its a software issue since it will need to be sent back to the Czech Republic from the UK I am guessing (bought from Sony Mobile website).

If its not a common thing I'll get another.

Apart from it failing to work as a basic phone its butter smooth and 'looks' flawless from the outside. Grrrr.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesebastian:
Are you experiencing this issue with GSM calls or VoIP calls?

Regarding VoIP calls:

In VoIP calls, in which applications are you having this issue? Hangouts? Whatsapp? Skype? Viber? other?.

I used to have a similar problem years ago with the Nexus 4.

In the Nexus 5 I don't suffer this anymore. However, sometimes still happen with a low chance.

Here are some reasons that could generate this:

- High lag/latency between you and the other person.

- One of the 2 phones lacks echo cancellation / is using "Speaker" (instead of Earpiece) / is using Earpiece with a really high volume that is captured by the mic in the same phone.

- And sometimes just the echo cancellation function stop working until your next call or reboot or whatever. (Based in my experience).

Regarding GSM calls:

I don't know too much about it. But I remember that when I had the Nexus 4 (with issues in VoIP) there was no problem here, because the echo cancellation is handled by the carrier's technology.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-ro-mex:
This echo happens on all calls. GSM and VoIP and it just happens on a normal call with nobody on speaker.

Called Sony Mobile this morning who agreed it is faulty and are refunding me when it gets back to the Czech Republic.

They wanted 10+ days to replace the handset. So just ordered the same Z5 Compact again for next day delivery to a Store near me. Shame as it's more expensive this way. But I don't want to wait 10+ days.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knutmartin:
Hi, I do have the exact same problem. I hoped there was a easy fix, but might have to get it replaced.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-ro-mex:
I got a replacement. So i have 2 Z5 compacts right now.

I am sending the original back for a refund. The new one I got today does not have this issue and works perfectly. So I would send yours back for replacement as soon as you can. Don't let them 'repair' it.

It isn't a software issue. just unlucky.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesebastian:
Great news!

Could you post the rev and the batch number (in the box) just to know whether it's the same or not?

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-ro-mex:
Is the batch number on the pull-out tab under the flap? Not sure what number I'm looking for.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thesebastian:
At the Box. The first (i think) 8 digits corresponds to the batch and (maybe) the country, and the there is a revision too.

For example:

Amazon.it ships: 1298-2019

Amazon.es ships: 1298-2057

I assume there is a revision concatenated to the right too.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dave-ro-mex:
It is 1298-3811

Hope that helps.

Ok I wanted to report that VoIP is working fine on my Z5C (is a Rev3 device).

I made a lot of calls with VoIP using WiFi or mobile network. At the metro, my house, office. WhatsApp and Hangouts.

(Yes sometimes could appear some echo, but that depends on network quality and a lot of factors. 98% of the talked time so far was fine

The last call was a WhatsApp one of 17 minutes with WiFi, between my Z5C and a MotoE2015 and it was perfect ).

I also had a GSM call at the office just fine.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sean09:
I've got to say,I really do not believe Sony knows what's going on. I've been dealing with support only to find out Sony won't fix my phone in Canada. They told me they will provide an international warranty, however, their repair vendor only services phones carried in Canada.

In addition, when I contact Sony about the echo issue they provide the same silly scripted nonsense solutions you see here - do a repair, followed by updating firmware, then they'll reference the software fix they've been claiming is in the works since November with no eta.

The consistent and scripted responses that fail to address the issue tell me Sony doesn't know or care to investigate a solution. They just give you the runaround.

I've been posting on their forums, but any time I indicate their solution doesn't work they moderate the message and remove responses other users have given. It's a great phone, but Sony support is utterly useless.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enrico2828:
I received my new z5 compact yesterday. Did a few test calls. GSM call and receive. Native voip call. Hangouts call. No echoing was noticed on either side. GSM quality is excellent. Voip was very delayed. Hangouts almost as good as GSM. I use the latest firmware. 32.0.A.6.200
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xenoswe:
I have noticed this on my Z5C as well and for me it only seem to happen if i call with speakerphone active before they answer, for me it seems to help to turn off the speaker and then turn it back on, so switching audio source seem to be a solution for me.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jibe.v:
I've got exactly the same probleme here : I bought my Z5C end of February and discover this echo problem couple of days after when people I was calling were all complaining.

I sent the device to the repair center but nothing has changed... I called the Sony Support and they still want me to sent again the phone for additional repairs but I already know that nothing will change.

It's a real shame from Sony to treat like this their customer : I had a Z3C before and was really excited to get the new Sow flagship but now after all this ****, i think it will be my last adventure with Sony.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proday:
I sad excatly the same 1 week after I have purchased z5c...sony = worst support ever!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dillalade:
This happened on z3c too. And now in z5c but less often

Had to be software related. Lazy Sony devs
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda.xperia:
Yes, this is true. I had the same issue with 3 different Z5 Compact phones, two of them sent straight from Sony quality control. It's a systemic issue with the phone design.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rocketman122:
I noticed the q/a on amazon for the $350 n6. It says the intl wont work well in the us. Why is this? What limitations are there on that phone that wont let you use it in the us if u have an intl model. I live overseas and just curios if its better to get the us or intl version. What limits are on both. Im not to experienced regarding what my providors needs are in a phone to work other than its using orange gsm lines. I did notice my pos htc m7 say 4g on top and i also believe i saw it say Lte when i was using it but im not certain.

The price for n6 has not come down and sells for 550 bucks still over here.

Last question. Will this phone still sell in 6 months? Will stores still stock it?

Thank u

There is a limit to the amount of LTE radio bands available on the chipset. The only differences are that the international has different LTE bands to the US one and does not support CDMA networks.

[Desire 626 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtrosky:
That was mainly because we didn't have a way to get back to where we started if it caused issues with the phone. Now that we have an RUU and a real custom recovery, it's a LOT less dangerous and a little more tempting! :)

But I still haven't taken the plunge myself yet either... The only thing I'm hoping it might fix is the white square notification icons I currently get (such as USA Today notifications, for example).

If the RUU in question is the one mentioned earlier by other members, then it was mandatory for me to upgrade it before the phone would even recognize the command to get the key to submit for the file which unlocks the bootloader.

Sorry - let me clarify - the RUU on the HTC website it the latest version of the stock ROM for the 626s.

I've had the phone since before the OTA came out (RUU is same version as OTA update) and was just wondering if anyone had noticed any differences between the stock ROM that came on the phone and the version upgraded to via the OTA (of if you installed using the RUU, which is the same version as the OTA updates you too)...
