[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xoph86:
Hi everyone,

does anyone else also have problems with bluetooth audio? I'm using my z5c with two different audio devices (car stereo and a jbl bluetooth box) and the audio signal is stuttering quite often. I tried using different apps (so far Audible and Deezer) and with both I get the stuttering. When I disable and enable bluetooth again sometimes it works fine for a while and then it turns bad again. Most of the times the stuttering is back immediately after reconnecting. The same happens after restarting the app. When I'm switching to headphones or the internal speaker I don't have any stuttering at all.

Any ideas on how to fix this? If it stays with Android 6.0 I might have to send the phone in.

Same, very rare audio gaps with BT and stock player and spotify
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schmolch:
Had that happen a few times. Stuttering not related to distance or other apparent reasons. Also phone slows down like crszy sometimes. I think stock rom is plain ****.

Happens very often when using Garmin Fenix 2 with HR monitor in the same time. If the watch is to close to phone then sometimes I hear nothing - but I think it's Garmin's fault.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sadman Khan:
Doesn't happen at all in my case
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottjb:
I have not noticed any stuttering while connected to the Bluetooth in my car (Acura TSX) or my Homewerks Bluetooth speakers in my house.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurbs118:
This is CONSTANT for me while using a variety of bluetooth headphones/speakers. Usually if I pause the music for a moment, it'll stop doing it for a while. But it's driving me insane today. I do usually have the phone paired with a Moto 360 as well, but I haven't noticed a difference whether it's connected or not.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camaro322hp:
Strange. I use BT audio all the time with 3 different BT devices, and never experience stuttering. I do use a 3rd party player (GoneMAD Music Player), not sure if that is part of it.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zurginator:
I had this issue constantly with my Z Ultra, had no issue with my Z3 Compact, after ~4 months started having it constantly with my S6 Edge, and I noticed it twice with my Z5 Compact.

I think it's something Android related rather than something Sony-specific (and definitely not phone-specific).
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tudork:
I use it with a wireless Sony loudspeaker. My z3 compact never stuttered. My z5 compact (with the same speaker) does stutter a little, especially if i hold it. If it's on a table it is fine.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaptres:
I don't experience stuttering at all, but I do however have the problem that the audio is too loud... Even on the lowest setting, audio through bluetooth headphones is almost too loud to listen to
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zumi_by:
Having connected the Z5 Compact to a Sony SBH-20 Bluetooth headset, I can confirm the stuttering issue. With music coming from Play Music the stutter happens sometimes and will not stop appearing until I stop and start the music. This also happens with navigation voices from Maps app.

Is this a Z5 Compact specific error or Android 5.x? My Motorola Razr i (4.4) never had this issue.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lellobello:
Not sure if this applies to every case, but the stuttering in my case I found out was due to accidentally touching or holding the phone near the fingerprint sensor.

What this generates is a music playback gap (no phone vibration or other sound, which makes hard to understand what is happening). Tested with bluetooth headphones, Sony AS600BT.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CincoNuestro:
I am having all kind of issues using audio on Bluetooth devices... And I have to do the pairing again every time I want to use one of these devices. It never connects automatically. I don't know if the app Throw or Smart connect have something to do with it.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swbf2lord:
Is this issue commonplace? I regularly use several pairs of Bluetooth headphones to listen to music with my phones. I've never had an issue with any Android devices stuttering over Bluetooth (Not since the Droid X2, anyways.), so I'm concerned by this. I had a Lumia 950 XL that had the issue, but a replacement seemed to solve that.

Just wondering, as I'm expecting my Z5c to be delivered Monday. Sorry for the necro!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] njhaigh:
I have the same issue with my Sony Z5 Compact, Audio through Bluetooth was working perfectly fine before Android 6.0 Software update, since the update the audio is very choppy/stuttering quite badly, even if the bluetooth earphones/reciever (Sony SBH20) is sat untop of the phone, I have tried different recievers/earphones, tried turning all apps off, turning wifi off, switching bluetooth on/off etc tried different music apps... tried most things, it happens at home/office and happens outside too, so my guess it's a Sony Bluetooth issue that has been effected by the Android Update.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tottelicious:
Stuttering/chopping badly here as well... Using BT to a 2016 Volvo. Especially if the phone is used at the same time, no matter the load.

Had no problem before Marshmallow.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xoph86:
it's interesting... the last 5.x update solved the problem on my phone and the marshmallow update didn't change the fact... have you tried to reflash the firmware?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zumi_by:
Found a possible solution which at least works temporarily in my case. Stuttering didn't happen since I performed the following:

Hi everyone,

I resolved Bluetooth audio stuttering on my Z5 Compact by wiping the cache partition.

This can be done the following way:

1. Go to Home screen

2. Press and hold both keys 5 seconds : Power + Volume Up

3. The smartphone should vibrate 3 times when done, and shutdown

4. Power on

The issue should be fixed.

This works on my Z5 Compact, I hope this can help you too.

Is there a root procedure for the galaxy s4 that's on the newest lollipop update ? I was able to root with kingroot but read its not safe to use kingroot and try install a custom rom ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mattzeller:

Have you lost root since? I've read a lot about people loosing root after a few hours to a couple of days. Any other issues, like random crashes / freezes / reboots?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mattzeller:
That's why flashing TWRP and SuperSU is the safest/easiest way to root, it's about as straightforward as it gets
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Ezintn:
Wasn't aware I could flash a custom recovery on a stock unrooted phone. I don't use the s4, that's why both of the ones I own aren't rooted already, my personal phones are often rooted before I even get home from the store! I need root and su without tripping knox or making any significant changes to the current set-up on either phone. I would prefer the recovery was stock on at least one of 'em. So how should I go about this? One is a tri band and the other isn't. The dual band one needs to be as stealth as possible. Losing root really won't matter as long as the system permissions remain as is prior to losing root.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] mattzeller:
Flashing a custom recovery is going to trip knox. Why do you care about knox? Triband or not flashing TWRP and SuperSU is the same. If you lose root and have things that require root to operate, you will lose the function of those things, unless it's a one off type of thing

i couldn't get twrp to work on my xperia zr so i tried this open cmd put the phone in recovery mode i think (blue led) then "fastboot flash boot TWRP+RAINBOW2.8.2A.img" then "fastboot reboot" the phone is dead just a red led and a small vibration when powered up but nothing light up any help ?

edit : i boot it again the Q now is there any way to install this recovery TWRP
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Depends on if your bootloader is unlocked. I don't know about the ZR specifically, but the majority of newer Sony devices need either bootloader unlocked or to use a special kernel+recovery combo that must be installed through the flash tool for devices with locked bootloaders.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] madcarrswu:
My Verizon GS3 softbricked a few days ago. I was running stock but had it rooted. It would freeze at the Samsung black and white screen on boot. I could only boot into Recovery Mode and Download Mode. The last back up I did of the internal data was 6 months ago. I want to recover the data before doing a hard/factory reset.

I read several post and was unclear on what to do in my situation. But I tried to gather as much info as I could. So I decided to try Odin and flash with the same firmware to my phone thinking the data will be saved. I flashed my phone with I535VRUDNE1_I535VZWDNE1_I535VRUDNE1_HOME.tar and it PASSED with success. Then I flashed with VRALEC.bootloader.tar and that FAILED. Then I flashed with VRALF2.boot.tar and that PASSED. My phone now boots up in Factory Mode (the black and yellow text box floating on the default home screen) but I can't see my old data or my normal home screen. Under the Storage Settings on the phone I can see that my 16GB internal memory only has 488MB left. But when I check it with Windows Explorer and File Explorer (in Linux) I can only see a few folders that total 4.27MB of data. So there's just over 15GB of data sitting there that I can't access yet.

It looks like the data is still there but I need to know how to access it. I have word docs, pdfs, pictures, video and mostly audio clips from lectures that I would like to recover.

Does anyone know how to recover this data? Please post or message me. Thanks
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
I'm not that familiar with LG devices (usually messing with Samsung) so hope I didn't just brick this thing. The device is a VK810 and before flashing was rooted w/stock 4.4.2 on it and stock recovery. Installed TWRP, performed wipes of system, data, internal, and format in preparation for new rom. Then flashed this stock rom: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g-pad-83/development/rom-stock-rooted-lollipop-rom-int-g-pad-t3079312 and then flashed SuperSU. Rebooted but system never comes up. Nothing. Not boot screen, LG logo, nothing. Device was at 97% battery before flashing and have tried plugging into power cord and holding down combination of buttons. Cannot get into download mode or anything else. When the device is plugged into the PC via USB I hear it connect and when holding the power button it will disconnect and reconnect in a loop. However, the screen is always black.

Tried this also with no luck so far:

So is this tablet a brick now or is there a way to recovery? Not sure how just flashing a rom/kernel bricks a tablet and prevents the screen from coming on. The bootloader did not get updated or messed with as far as I know.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Hi. Sorry to say but you flashed a ROM for the V500 international variant of the G Pad 8.3, which is incompatible work the VK810.4G variant. There's a third variant, the V510 as well.

Even if the screen is blank does the PC indicate the right entry in the tablet in the Modem section, if you go through the motions of putting the tablet in Download mode, which are to have the original USB cable into USB 2.0 port, with the tablet completely off (hopefully), press and hold the Up Volume button and while holding it, connect the other end of the USB cable to the tablet. You should be able to let go of the up volume button now.

Then try LG Flash Tool 2014 with the 11A KDZ from my signature. 11A is both easiest to root and to install TWRP. If you get that far you can flash my ROM from my signature, make sure you have TWRP updated to v2.8.7.0 before doing so and follow the directions on the OP of my ROM thread.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
Unfortunately pressing any button and plugging in the USB cable shows nothing on the screen. The PC chimes when it is connected and disconnected but that is all. Can't remember if there is a charging light on the tablet but when plugged into the wall charger nothing lights up. If the tablet is plugged into the PC and power button pressed it will chime connect and disconnect in a loop.

I realize now the rom was not for this version but wish someone could tell me how just flashing a rom/kernel combination (with no bootlooder changes) causes the tablet to not even power on. Doesn't make sense. Will probably have to send it in for repair cause it seems I've tried everything.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I haven't downloaded the ROM so I don't know what it contains. Are you sure it doesn't contain a bootloader? Did you look inside the zip to see if there's an aboot.img in it? On the VS985 G3 (and my VK810 ROM which I based on [MENTION=5868929]hsbadr[/MENTION] 's JasmineROM), all stock based ROMs contain the proper bootloader.

On [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] 's VS985 v2.0 ROM, the bootloader is in the bootstack flashable zip and not in the ROM zip, but the instructions are too flash the bootstack zip too.

There's other partitions than the bootloader that would cause a catastrophic issue sick as your experiencing. Why exactly? Can't say other than simply that the ROM contains partitions made for another device, they're incompatible and therefore makes your device not work at all.

I figured your only option would be to have it repaired. You could say it happened while or after using the official LG recovery tool under Windows.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Okay, I went ahead and downloaded the ROM. As you said, it doesn't contain a bootloader but it does have the rpm and tz partitions. According to rpm = elf binary/power management, tz = elf binary/QCom trustzone secure exec[/QUOTE]

I would guess that those two would totally hose being flashed on the wrong device if the kernel doesn't. Just a guess, though.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCallahan:
I see your point but even with the wrong kernel a tablet should charge when turned off. Should be no software running whatsoever to prohibit that.

Anyways, I sent the tablet back to LG for repair. They stated it has a charging issue. Should be getting it back soon and will for sure flash the correct stuff on it this time. :eek:
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I disagree. When Android devices are off, and you plug them in to charge them, at least for a bit when the battery charging animation loads and runs, something is running, and the files used for that device off battery charging animation are located with the rest of the Android system files.

Cool, hope you have as good experience with their RMA service as I did.

NSTV Remote microphone input

I actually love the NSTV remote, i think it has everything it needs.

Android as a platform has moved away from hardware menu buttons already anyway so I don't see why this should be an exception.

Is anyone here trying to use it with full android rather than the stock firmware though?

I am, and everything works (even volume control and headphone audio output!) except the microphone.

If anyone has any suggestions for how I could go about debugging the microphone input, I would very much appreciate it as it's the last thing preventing my setup from being perfect.

The message I see when I press the voice input button on the remote is "Can't open microphone" (screenshot at end of this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64552147&postcount=14 )

Android is clearly just not recognising it as an audio input device, but I'm not sure why.

I was trying to install HERALD_WM6.0_4.17.07.11 which I though I'd be happy to have "WM 6.0 OS: TouchFlo" on the wing because it looks cool but somehow during installation I had an error. During copying system files I massed up something. So I had to reboot the device but after rebooting it, it freezed. I tried to soft reset it kept freezing. So I desided to do Hard reset for restoring manufacturer default. So I pressed Send key to restore but it kept freezing.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pagalbengal:
The Wi-Fi on my wife's unrooted Nexus 5 (Sprint version) which was upgraded (via OTA) to Marshmallow last month suddenly stopped working last week. The slider would get hung while moving from Off to On (like it was trying to turn on) and therefore was not detecting any available Wi-Fi signals.

After trying many things, I eventually did the extreme and did a full factory data reset. No dice. Still not detecting anything.

Figuring it might be an OS issue with Marshmallow (given we're seeing a lot of forums indicating Nexus 5 issues based on Wi-Fi with both Marshmallow and Lollipop), we downgraded the OS first to Lollipop and then all the way back to KitKat (4.4). Still not working. At initial phone setup, the phone is not detecting any available WiFi signals and gets hungup trying to find networks for me to choose from - so I end up having to skip this step.

Any other tips out there on what I can try? Is this a sure sign of hardware problems? Don't think my wife's phone is under warranty any longer (have had it slightly over a year, I think).

PS - Now I can no longer even upgrade the phone (OTA, at least) from 4.4.4 because my phone is saying it needs Wi-Fi to download the update - with no option to do it over my data plan.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I'm in the same situation and it appears to be a hardware failure. The wifi chip can't be replaced so a motherboard swap is required.

You can upgrade to the latest stock ROM by flashing the entire ROM from a command prompt in Win7.
