[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biohazardta:
Hello everyone,

I am planning to buy a new phone, and I am considering to choose either Xperia Z5 or Xperia Z5 Dual.

For me, it is necessary to use a dual SIM phone for working purposes. But if Xperia Z5 Dual has missed some critical function, then I may consider to buy Xperia Z5 instead, just like Z3+ Dual does not support Quick Charge 2.0, that is a very important function for me.

I have searched information over the internet about these 2 phones and I found some of the information are different between different web sites.

Could somebody conclude difference between these 2 phones?

Some critical functions for me:

1. Do both phones support QC 2.0?

2. Xperia Z5 Dual supports less 4G channels? Will this affects me to use the phone in different countries?

3. Anymore other differences on hardware specification?

Hope somebody can help and sorry for my terrible English grammar.

Regards,

Henry

Hello, Z3+ dual sim about the bands the same of z5 and support QC 2.0. This phone has heating issues. Someone know if with inminent update to Marshmalow will improve it this problem?

I say this because the device is cheaper.

Thanks

Z5 Dual Community support

I would like to know if the ROM building will be available to Dual version also?

I would go for Z5 if the custom Rom support wont be extended to the Z5Dual. This is very imp for me. If there is a custom ROM for Z5, can it easily be ported to Z5Dual?
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shikaiya:
Hi Guys, someone knows if is possible to root this device? Thank u so much!
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xajel:
beside these differences...

Dual tend to get less love from Sony and from Developers... Dual software updates takes longer to release than single software updates... Z3 & Z3+ for example dual versions will get the software update 1 - 3 months after single version.. I don't know if Sony changed this with Z5 or not which is unlikely...

Developers side means there's much less chance of having ROM's, mod's and even basic root... and if there's these will take longer time than single...
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick_sub:
I've just bought an S4 Mini Plus/Value Edition and the photos from the camera are awful. It seems that the camera is extremely sensitive to movement while taking a photo. Photos are generally much worse than the S3 Mini I had previously and more like what I would expect from a £30 device.

Has anyone else experienced this? I'm wondering if Samsung downgraded the camera on the Plus (I9195I) when the changed the processor. I use my phone as a camera a lot so I will have to return it for a refund unless someone knows of some magic cure?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OneShotx:
Look in the settings of the camera app, Maybe it's on vga or something on default? I never heard of s4mini plus so..
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick_sub:
Thanks but I've been through all the settings and it all seems fine. It seems like it was frequently failing to focus. I returned it (Argos) for a refund and will see if I can get the standard dual core S4 mini instead.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericerk:
What's the deal w/ usb 3.0? Is it disabled? Can it be reenabled?

The board, supports it, and it seems counter productive to put a usb 2.0 in such fresh HW.

https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/810
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
So I've read, its because usb3 takes up more battery
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cb474:
It sounds like that could be an issue. Also, USB 3.0 is so fast that it can outpace a lot of the flash memory in phones. So there would have to be faster memory in the phone to handle it and that raises costs.

I'm sure it's a cost issue in the end. And not enough people know about it or care. They may also not have computers with USB 3.0 connectors to appreciate the difference. So the group of people this benefits shrinks and shrinks, while the cost per phone remains the same.

Also, most companies and especially Google are trying to push people into the cloud, not into phone storage. All the better to track you with for advertising.

I'm sure eventually it or something else faster will be the standard. It is disappointing how long it's taking though. And it does seem dumb to put in a larger USB type C port (supposedly one of the downsides of USB 3.0), but not take advantage of it. I definitely get tired of how slow USB 2.0 is when backing up my phone to my computer.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Big Cam:
USB 3.0 on type C doesn't support fast charging, I am 99% sure this was brought up in the reditt AMA and has been discussed on this board too.

Everyone is so up in arms over it not being 3.0, but most people don't even know the benefits of it, if you plan to transfer hundreds of gigs of data from your phone to your PC on a weekly basis, then I guess you need it, otherwise the main purpose of the port is to charge your phone, I'd rather have fast charging 2.0 than regular charging 3.0

Warning:

This mod is not for noobs. You need to cook in and replace the dll with the the one provided and add in read only properties. Also you must add in the reg edit or else the icons will not work. Neather I nor bennec83 are responsible for any damage that may result from this mod. You must know what you are doing. Do not pm us to tell you how you cook roms or add these in bc if you dont know how to add in the dlls or reg entries then you should not be doing this.

now that thats over. jj's black x will include the icons from this thread. we also need to give credit to schap who did this first. all i did is find what he did and make it work on my own rom and then share the knowledge with u guys. ENJOY!

schap hey. well i just extracted the icons from ur dll in 3.54b and sent them over to bennec83. he took them and made new icons. they are based on ur idea but new. then i just took the icons that bennec made and added them to the dll from black x and black satin(same dll). i then just found the reg entry from ur default.hv and added whats changed from reg in black satin/black x.

can you please make a .cab file for this.....LOL J/K.....good work thanks.

lol no problem. would never done it if it werent for schap saying it cant be done.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schaps:
Yes, you were right to do so, the only thing is that it will work only with black (Kaiser style) dialer. But I don't get in what it is more accruate to percentage...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pawel062:
well itll make the pin pad if i remember touch style and in the recieved/missed/called detail change the icons but i can also get another dll and have the pin pad and calls detail stay like they were originally and also add in the icons from this dll. i think what bennec means is its easier to read the percentage. just a guess schap
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bennec83:
Inside afew of your battery icons the text % didnt match the actual displayed % INSIDE the battery, for example when your text says 10%, your battery displays 20%, another was the text said 20% and battery displayed 30%, i think it was on most, but im not sure, i didnt carry on looking after that i was deleting some of it anyway!!

Also I reshaped the inside of the bettery to give better view of how full it was.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bennec83:
Nope Check post above!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schaps:
I made CABs to install those icons. :)

I didn't test them but there is no reason that it doesn't work.

For those who want to install this, be careful, read the previous warning and remember that it is only for black dialer!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Pawel062:
thanx schap for being a good sport. was careful about revealing my discovery bc u might get mad but looks like u didnt. and yes u should have the black dailer. the dll is from jj's black roms that have the touch dialer. the icons when u go into call history that show missed/recieved/dialed are in this dll so that why we recommend a black dialer.

This is the battery indicator for me, but i was wondering is there coming a Kaiser version? This works in it, but it shows the status by the 10% jumps, Kaiser would be able to show the exact %. I would imagine there would be a lot of takers for it.

Good question, that would be great if a Kaiser version would work to show accurate %'s.

Great work. This and other enhancements developed here, as well as the on going collaboration, make this site an example of what's right with the web. Thanks!

I think this particular cab would be nice if it just had a clean percentage icon, i.e. 100% (no battery icon) would be easier to read and to the point.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rabdo:
Just wondering if anyone was able to change the colour of the headset icon in the dialer from black to white? I know the bitmap is stored in the phcanoverbmp.dll (resource bitmap 52). I tried altering it with various resource hackers such as PE explorer but the resulting dll did not work. I think it is a problem with signing the final file.

Just wondered in bennec83 could create his battery icons with versions containing white headset icons instead of black
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] $Gambit:
Quick question from a beginner:

In order to create icons themselves, I make the following ??? :

A) I suppose I take the file "PK White + ColorNewWarningClean3G"

B) I unpack PHCANO~1.001 from the CAB-File

C) I open the file: PHCANO~1.001 by example Restorator

D) I replace the existing icon by drag and drop with my own

E) I save the PHCANO~1.001 with Restorator and put it back into the Cab-File

F) I install the cab-datei according to instructions

Would that really so?

and which format for icons (Bitmap 16x16 x X) can be used in the dll?

(Translated from German to English with Wikipedia, sorry)

Hopefully I ask not only nonsense

Thanx

Dialer icons in phcanOverbmp.dll?

Any reason why phcanOverbmp.dll contains icons related to the dialer? I.E. Call logs: incoming, missed, outgoing.

Examples:

these icons supercede the icons I have in my dialer (I am using Paul's Mogul Big Button Dialer with RAF Black Silver Dailer Skin) which causes the icons in the dialer to revert to the default ones after installing the battery icon's.

Hello,

I confess, I was to lazy to read the whole 20 pages of this thread, so I'll perhaps ask an already answered question:

Anyway, is there a version containing only:

3) Battery Icon Has Percentage Full Marked Above Battery Symbol (Not Schaps's Version - Difference: Text Is Placed Different & Graphically More Accurate To Percentace)

and no:

1) 3G (because there is already with that registry tweak, or not?)

2) "Battery Critical"

4) NEW BATTERY CRITICAL WARNING ICON - Added 10/08/07

or could someone do such a version for me, with icons all white, if there's no such version available until now??

Would be very glad,

greets,

Hi,

I have the same issue on my Kaiser (ie: cert installed, then the cab then reboot = still the original icons)

I did the process and rebooted couple of times.:confused:

MY ROM is in the signature.

HOWEVER. I just installed the SPB PhoneTools and before that, it was working fine.

The idea would be to have both. I got used to the color battery icon and I LOVE it.

Any help available?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Andehh:
My apologies in advance, iv read all 20 pages and havnt found an answer so figured id try posting!

Am i right in thinking that downloading the .cab & installing it is not enough to get it to work? My first read through made me think it wasnt worth while and i gave it a miss, but in searching for other battery percentage icons a few other threads linked back to this one with instructions to just download & install the cab.

iv done this and the icon has appeared, but it stays on 90% charged, and doesnt change no matter how much the phone is charged/discharged. I searched again and found a post saying to disable the bettery status but couldnt find any way of doing this.

Can anyone shed any light, is downloading & installing the .cab (and sdkcert.cab) enough to make it work, or does it still require more tweaks?

thanks guys
