thats too late when it has already fell to the ground, with marks like that there will be straight no.

Its not Sony's fault you dropped it, and they dont know if it was "broken" before the fall or not, thus they wont replace it.

I am not saying it is like this all around the world, but we operate by these guidelines where i work, and they are provided by Sony, and thats what I know.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] The_Y8Y_Rapist:
Heya.

I have same problem with my 6683. Any idea where I can find an inner metal frame for it so I can change it myself, or with someone from London, which I assume I'll find here, on XDA Developers forum and wants to give it a try, or has already done this magic before?

Cheers.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] ukrainain:
Actually, corners are sold separately, depends on where you shop. I know witrigs.com has them, 4 corners for a set.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] ytheekshana:
can the 4 corner parts be replaced without damaging water resist
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] Pixelado:
Witrigs sells the whole frame for 17 USD. It's listed as "OEM Middle Frame Replacement for Sony Xperia Z5 Premium COLOR". I ordered mine and couldnt be happier with it, my phone looks brand new :D

They also sell the corners but they're about 4 USD, so the full frame is a better value.
[Xperia Z5 Premium Accessories] The_Y8Y_Rapist:
Thank you

I already purchased some parts for another phone and they came fast enough. I enjoyed the experience with them and I'm pleased to recommend as a trustful company.

Now, I just need to save some money to repair all my phones owned in the last years.

Hopefully, soon we won't be needing them -

This is how you can flash CWM Recovery by Carliv on Gionee Elife S5.5, Blu Vivo 4, Qmobile Z6, Primo X3, Allview X2 Soul Pro or any other rebranded phone by Gionee S5.5

Follow these steps:

1. Download the Carliv V6 Recovery from Here

2. Download & install Mobileuncle MTK Tools from Here

3. Save the CWM_Carliv_V6_KK_2.img file on your SD Card, don't save it in file or folders, just in SD card or Internal memory

4. Open Mobileuncle MTK Tools, and go to the "Recovery Update" Section. Now on the top you will see CWM_Carliv_V6_KK_2.img file.

5. Just click on the CWM_Carliv_V6_KK_2.img file, and Mobileuncle will ask you to make sure if you want to flash that recovery. Just click ok, your phone will flash that recovery and voila! Your phone will enter the recovery mode of CWM.

Enjoy the recovery! Also, please hit the Thanks button!

k, so we all agree that this phone does quite a lot,

but I often find myself wanting to take a few notes, just a line or 2 and I couldnt find a program in my phone that does it...

Is there some kind of notepad or sticky notes for this device on WM5?

Thanks for the help!
[HTC Excalibur] PhoenixAG:
Install OneNote. You can install it if you have MS Office installed. Just open up OneNote on the desktop and go to its options and you will see the option to install OneNote Mobile.

Its great. It lets me attach recordings, pictures to notes, as well as jot down quick ones.
[HTC Excalibur] MountainDrew:
There's also PhatNotes for smartphone: http://www.phatware.com/phatnotes/index.html

It's $40, but I've heard it's not bad. I use OneNote Mobile, since I get it free with my work copy of Office 2007. OneNote 2007 costs quite a bit (over $100) to buy separately.
[HTC Excalibur] Nexus30:
If you can wait for a 1 week, I will post a note application I am currently working on. It will synchronise notes from outlook using active sync. And it will be free:-)
[HTC Excalibur] GADGTGUY:
WHOO HOO!

If you get this working I will gladly donate for your time!

[HTC Excalibur] vince88:
Oh wow, I had no clue I had the program. Thank you so much!!!

Ive had office 2007 for quite some time now and never bothered to open the program directory in the folder!!!

That is amazing, guess I wont have to buy a program to do it!!!

Thank you so much! You have all been great...

Btw, I used phatnotes for the day, not bad at all, but there are a couple of glitches I found while using it...

Wont complain tho, still did the job!:D
[HTC Excalibur] elconfa:
Hello what about your program? have you some news? I would like to test it. THANKS
[HTC Excalibur] Nexus30:
I am still working on the synchronization part. I have finished the mobile app part. I will make it available soon, just working on some final touch. Cheers
[HTC Excalibur] GADGTGUY:
If you need a tester let me know.

[HTC Excalibur] Fixup:
Smartphones do not have Notes built-in and all the 3rd-party solutions (such as SmartpHoneNotes) suck because they cannot sync over the air.

My solutions are:

1) Do notes online. If you have a free Yahoo account, you can use its online Notepad, not bad at all, just it does not support SSL. If you have an ASP web hosting, you can install my XinNotes:

http://www.fixup.net/download/XinNotes.zip

2) Use PocketNotepad. If your phone does not have an Internet, then the best way to do notes is the free and great PocketNotepad from Tillanosoft. You don't need to sync it with your desktop as you can open the notes files directly via ActiveSync with Windows's Notepad. As it does not use a special file format but in plain text, it saves you all the troubles of sync and your dependance to a specific software. Peace of mind from now on.

http://tillanosoft.com/

PocketNotepad is also the best and only text edit tool for you to view/edit any text files on your phone. A must. Make sure you also install the tGetFile.dll which allows you to browse/open/save in all folders (without this dll PocketNotepad can only access My Documents folder which is enough for notes function). No need to mention its full features: copy/paste, search/replace, insert date/time... everything you've dreamed and beyond.

Notes App.

For my S620 I copied HTC Quick notes app. from the S710 and it works very well. It allows you to store notes on the storage card but it does not have the aibility to sync with Outlook.

Playing a bit with my SGH-i600, I noticed that they have an app. called Notepad and the i600 ships with an add-on to sync notes on Outlook called Notepadsync. I copied it on the S620 and installed the software on my computer but Activ Sync does not recognise the app. on the smartphone whereas it would detect it on the SGH.

I guess there must be some registry hacks to do to allow it to sync on the S620.

If someone the binaries I can send them, as I have very few spare time to dig on this.

I messed up my Yoga 2 1050 by trying to load an unlocked boot image from here (http://xdaforums.com/thinkpad-tablet/general/yoga-tab-2-unlocking-daaa-deee-daaa-dooo-t3241260), I have tried using the Phone flash tool with the correct file but it fails at 50%, here is the log attached if anyone can help.

When I first power on a message EFILINK ERROR(image -start-partition 596:)This partition does not appear to contain a boot image shows up.

Thanks
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
so you got your un-repairable tab back from lenovo

as a reminder, when you attempted to unlock the bootloader instead of the correct fastboot flash ESP 1050f-esp-patched you did a fastboot flash boot 1050f-esp-patched so instead of flashing you ESP partition you flashed the boot one with a (incompatible) ESP image, resulting, of course, in a bricked tab (as now the boot partition contains no valid image to be booted)

as advised, what you did to fix is fine (ie flashing back a stock rom), but you must use this Intel Phone Flash Tool (uninstall your existing one then install the new one) because the one you are using will not complete to flash a lollipop stock rom
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
Thanks ionioni

I did as you said, removed the old phone flash and installed the "lite" version.

I have run the new one and unfortunately it failed, it seems when the command for 25 second sleep is issued the tablet is taken out of fastboot as the screen shows the android system recovery page then.

I have enclosed the log file.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
when installed the new intel phone tool you must leave the dnx driver checked, install also the other file intelandroiddrv....exe, reboot and try again

if still not working try to flash a kitkat rom (have you restored the bios somehow?)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
O.K. I'll do as you say

No I have not touched the bios
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
yeah, i read both logs and you should focus on (re)installing the Phone Flash Tool and drivers (first uninstall the existing and the drivers related and reboot)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
Thank you for your help ionioni, it seems that I have really messed this one up.

I'll try again in the morning and see if I have better luck then.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
it's not that hard, come on...

1. uninstall the existing Phone Flash Tool(nvm that you already installed the new one) and the drivers associated from Add/Remove programs and reboot

2. install the new Intel Phone Flash tool and the driver from the zip file linked (unplug the tab from usb before installing), to be sure also install at the end the DnX driver attached (this step is normally not needed as it should be automatically installed when the new Intel Phone Flash tool installation is run)

3. flash using the lollipop stock rom (the one you used so far with (L) at end is ok)

10 minutes for all these operations
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Tribux:
I can confirm that information. Today I was installing new rom, and have problem with uploading data. I've installed newer version of Phone Flash Tool LITE instead of classic PFT, and DNx driver and it works good for me :)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
O.K you talked me into it.

Just to be different I tried to do it on my Daughters laptop,and it still failed, it just seems to take it out of fastboot within a second or two of starting.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
if it fails again, attach the log from the Intel Phone Flash Tool and also detail what is the tab doing during these operations
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
O.K

I have fresh installed the "lite" tool and all the drivers including the DnX one.

The yoga is put into fastboot by pressing volume up and down together while powering on, this shows fastboot starting,then connect to laptop(tried on two different ones)start "lite" tool and load XML (also tried starting tool before connecting Yoga) file from same folder as files are in, press start to flash and within a second or two the screen on the Yoga change to the Android System Recovery screen and thats how it stays.

The attached log is from my Daughters Laptop.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
try and start your tab in normal fastboot mode (from the recovery console select 'reboot to bootloader' or use from power off the combo keys Pwr & Vol+ or Pwr & vol- one of these two should bring you to the Fastboot/Droidboot menu) and from there tell me what the ifwi entry says... BLADE_21....
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
BOOTLOADER VERSION -

IFWI VERSION- Blade_21.86c.004.R23.1504091154 FFD8_IA32_R

SIGNING - ?

SECURE_BOOT - ?

E: No valid installer medium found
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
ok, somehow your bios is (still) a kitkat version (sure you didn't restored the bios using the restore bios tool? or lenovo did? nvm anyways)

you need to flash the kitkat stock rom, use this one (you can use the already installed lite flashing tool, no need to reinstall anything, just download and extract the stock rom and flash from dnx mode). after that remember to configure your region code and then you can update to lollipop using OTA's (don't flash the lollipop rom as this is only to be used after you have already updated to lollipop using OTA's and you need a fresh lollipop over your existing one)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
I will do that, the download seems very slow though at the moment, I'll let you know how it goes.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
will be fine, you had a kitkat bios and everything choked right from the start (remember that the bios must match the rom you re/install, so for eg if you have kitkat on your tab don't flash a lollipop rom or the other way around, as this will not upgrade/downgrade the bios too and you will get unexpected behavior or bricks, to upgrade to lollipop from kitkat use ota's and after you are on lollipop you can flash a lollipop stock rom if needed sometime)
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
I now have Droidboot Provision OS

with selection of

Reboot

RebootDroidboot

Recovery

SPupdate

Power off

which do I choose
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
what were the steps you performed? normally that one is the screen that the tab is showing during the flashing yet you must see some activity on the Intel Flash Tool log window and in the bottom of your tab screen. if you see it the it's ok and just wait for it to finish, if not then you must start your tab in DnX mode (screen saying "Fastboot starting...") then load flash.xml from the extracted kitkat stock rom in Intel Phone Flash Tool and "Start flashing"
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
Something has worked

I am now at a screen to set the Language and region ,but it will not move on.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
yeah that's the first screen that Android shows after a stock rom flash (this means you have succesfully flashed your kitkat stock rom)...

you should be able to manage on your own now, i cannot teach you how to select a language or tap ok
[Thinkpad Tablet General] corasman:
ionioni you are a Genius ,just out of interest what are the other flash files for,erase factory,factory blank,and factory second update.

I cannot thank you enough, my tablet is rescued.

You could flash a stock nandroid backup, but you would still have a custom recovery, and technically not stock. You might be able to use flashfire to flash stock recovery, but you would need root, and the ability to load the stock recovery on your phone.

Any news about the latest update ? 1.4 ? why is huawei so slow in this direction
[Huawei Watch] crawrj:
I know I should just let this go unanswered but I can't help myself. You talk about Huawei being slow, what other manufacturer has released 1.4? Who do you think develops and distributes Android Wear? Hint... It's not Huawei. And this isn't Android where carriers and OEM's get to put their own personal touches into it. This is pure Google across all watches. And to your question, there are one or two other threads going on this subject. And you'll find in them that nobody knows yet.
[Huawei Watch] AstroDigital:
I know this is what I find amusing when people complain about no speaker yet.

The speaker is not supported yet because Goggle has not yet updated Android Wear to support the speaker.

Has nothing to do with Huawei.
[Huawei Watch] WaxysDargle:
I'm pretty sure the changelog for AW 1.4 included speaker support. I remember reading about it when Skin updated his root kernel last. i think that the interface of the watch is going to need some updating for sure to add support for calls. that cant come from AW update. that has to come from Huawei update.
[Huawei Watch] janjan:
Looks like Google is working on Marshmallow for wearable. Crossing finger

http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/0...ork-until-wear-gets-marshmallow-apk-teardown/
[Huawei Watch] bouchigo:
And this also, so it shouldn't be too far off now: http://www.droid-life.com/2016/02/0...-will-introduce-new-gestures-speaker-support/
[Huawei Watch] janjan:
Yes update will be release in a few weeks. I'm feeling so bad right now. I just return my watch cause I couldn't wait anymore. I think LG and HTC will show their new watches too in a few weeks. I am just guessing. I will properly buy Hauwei watch again when the new updates arrive.
[Huawei Watch] kpjimmy:
According to Android Police, the OTA's are beginning to go out today. Of course in stages.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/02/04/google-has-started-rolling-out-marshmallow-for-android-wear/
[Huawei Watch] bouchigo:
Maybe someone will be kind enough to pull the OTA from the watch before installing so everyone that wants to can "speed up" the process :good:
[Huawei Watch] Lucas_Maximiliano:
Confirmed from oficial Wear Developers page on G+ https://plus.google.com/+WaynePiekarski/posts/F7U8jB4FoXa
[Huawei Watch] AMoosa:
Announced. But not a single person has received it yet.
[Huawei Watch] foo:
This is awesome news, thanks for sharing. I still have some problems to understand the concept of SW roll outs for Android Wear though.

Google is directly updating the Android Wear software for the watch often referred as the "6.0 Marshmallow" update. Is this the operating system of the watch? Which part is Huawei updating with their OTA updates then?

If Google states they activate the speaker, does this also mean they will update the simple call notification app we have at the moment to an app where we can actually make calls through the watch or is this something, that Huawei has to provide after the Android Wear update?
[Huawei Watch] kpjimmy:
Yes this is the software on the actual device itself. The watch will received the OTA ask to download and install. Which is different than the android wear app, on the play store. Two different items, but work together. Clear as mud? lol If you are at all familiar with the Nexus device updates, they usually "stage" the rollouts slowly. Which isn't horrible. It'll hit my device when it does. When I feel a slowdown on the watch, I'll restart it to see if an update is waiting to be downloaded.

As for the speaker, that is the speculation at this point. We'll see how it will work in the coming weeks.
[Huawei Watch] dbroer91884:
I would be more than happy to do that once I get the update, but I don't know how so I would have to be given directions for how to do it.

[Huawei Watch] firehawk:
That's to be expected. Last time Google released, it was the manufacturers who didn't have Wifi that were able to release quite a bit earlier than the ones who did.

This time it's the manufacturers with watches without speakers.
[Huawei Watch] calinormy:
Maybe it's about the selling numbers...that's why moto has got the update first. Anyway the important thing is to get the update AND the speaker .....

How will be the battery usage after enable the speaker? Anyone though about that?
[Huawei Watch] AMoosa:
As with any device, the more you use it, the less the battery will last.
