[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Accessories] futiless:
Been doing mobile phone repairs on the side for a couple of years. Xperia is by far one of the more misleading manufacturers in my opinion when performing repairs. I would make sure the person can somehow prove the back-light still come on. Also when performing the actual repair it can't be stressed enough that you shouldn't treat the battery like a Samsung or it seems to corrupt at different essential points. I would wager 2 in 3 newbies will burn out the fuse on the mainboard for the back light during an average repair due to a jeopardized screen shorting out or testing prematurely to make sure everything is in working order early in the repair. In almost every model it is precision work which could imply ripping and plying off the sheilding in a way they it will never be 1:1 and that is if you can even find the fuse for this model. With that said just put everything back exact minding all the grounding tape etc. while performing this repair. Xperias are an utter nitemare in terms of ghost error lite codes and forums of confused people getting red light of death etc. .. I have modded many phones Xperia's still brick to easily for my liking and I often feel like I am walking on glass to test or try anything past vanilla.

I have backed up my DRM's though and unlocked my bootloader and put the DRM's back which makes the phone a little better.

Xperia phones in my books are the most temperamental and fragile. With that said the pretentiousness can be overlooked when you look at features.

I am on holidays in Canada and bought the international passport plan so I can phone and text here... I can send texts to people in Canada and back to the US without any issues - I can't however receive any texts at all.. Tried the different AT&T APNs as well as Telus (since it shows me as connected to that carrier). Creating a Telus APN profile doesn't save, it just disappears immediately.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] peachpuff:
When you're using the att apn's, under sim status what network are you connected to?

Have you tried your sim card on a different phone? Almost seems like att's at fault here.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xaaronfx:
I'm connected to the Telus network, I should have mentioned that as that's the reason I was trying to use a Telus APN (maybe that doesn't make sense lol). I've been on the phone with AT&T all morning...they're scratching their heads.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xaaronfx:
Welp, problem solved... I restarted my phone a few times to no avail - turning off the phone for a minute, however, seems to have done the trick!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] peachpuff:
Geez the old "did you turn it off and on" trick strikes again, i thought it was a myth.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] xaaronfx:
I thought a phone restart would have been equivalent, I was wrong lol. I fly to Canada pretty frequently and didn't have that issue before :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jacobgong:
Currently I'm using an S5 without any cases or covers, and it's still drop-proof, dropped it multiple times on hard floor/concrete and there is no damage on the screen what so ever. And before that I had an HTC One X, which is probably more similar to the Edge in that the screen isn't protected if it drops face down, I did eventually crack it with that kind of a drop. However the edge is gonna be even more problematic because even the back is glass, and no plastic protruding edge to protect it.

Sure I could put it in a bulky case but then it kind of defeats the purpose of having one of the most premium feeling phones ever doesn't it? It'll also negate any ergonomic benefits of the curved back edge as well as the ease of edge swipe on the front edge. Might as well just get something like a.... I don't know, nobody makes high end plastic phones anymore now days, even cheap phones like One Plus is front+back curved glass. Also this thing is already a bigger phone than what I'm used to, adding a beefy case is just gonna make it that much bigger, which I do not like.

Well I guess plenty of people did survive the iPhone 4 glass sandwich era just fine, I'll just have to wish myself luck. I wonder how much would one of those adhesive skins help in a drop situation. Sure they are very thin but if think about the physics of it, gorilla glass is actually quite flexible so it doesn't break from the acceleration of the impact itself, so thinness doesn't really matter. What actually breaks these surface hardens glass is usually a microscopic failure on the surface developing into a big crack. And those microscopic failures can happen when they make contact with sharp hard stuff like individual sand particles, they effectively puncture the surface and develop a weakness. So if you have a skin on the glass, what'll hopefully happen instead is that the skin will be thick enough for the particle to not make direct contact with the glass, and prevent breaking. Even though such thin skins cannot significantly reduce the impact acceleration.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Cst79:
I understand your points, but please, don't ever try to use this phone naked. You NEED a case, the grip is so bad that dropping it is almost a guarantee and the back glass seems to be much more fragile than the front glass from what I have seen in videos. About the cases, you may want to look into the Samsung official plastic backs or (when available) the leather backs. The official plastic back cases from Samsung are the only ones (in my opinion) that really do not ruin the phone's design, the design remains almost intact. However, while the grip is much improved over the naked phone, it is nowhere near other bulky and rubberized cases. A rubberized plastic wrap would be a solution, but the big problem still remains - the metal sides of the phone which are very narrow.

PS: As I understand from the latest spy pics, the iPhone 7 will have a glass back again...probably needed for radio/charging/payment/other secret developments.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Beefheart:
There are plenty of case available that won't make the phone look s**t. I'm using a Spigen Crystal Clear, a very good combination of protection and looks. It's impossible to completely keep the phone's look and feel, but it's probably as close as possible whilst being confident of being able to accidentally drop it from pocket height without damage.

Glass protectors on these curved screens are to be avoided, that's my personal opinion anyway. My brother bought numerous types of these for his S6 Edge (expensive and cheap) and not one went on properly without raising on the curves within twenty minutes, causing touch problems on the edges. Go for a good quality film type like a Zagg HD Dry.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] riso123:
I copied you entirely mate I'm not ashamed to say. Got my Spigen Crystal Clear yesterday and, your right, it does look good, but not as good as the nekkid phone itself. But I guess that's the price of good protection.

Just waiting for my Zagg HD Dry front and back covers to arrive today.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ih8un:
I'm personally using Otter Box Commuter for me and my wife's phone. I was able to try it on in store before purchasing. I was sort of desperate for a case on delivery day and it was the most protective case I found. I'm happy with it overall. It's sleep and slim and although the whole front in uncovered it does have raised top and bottom edges so if the phone falls flat the screen doesn't actually touch the floor.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Rickyw324:
I would love to use the phone naked as it just looks so good, but I am scared to risk it. I have never dropped and cracked a phone, and I had an Iphone 4S without a case for 2 years which were well known for getting smashed, I have a clear case on the edge at the moment to offer it some protection.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Sk17z0:
Carrying and using smart phones without any case is just asking for trouble. I have the S7 Edge and when it arrived on March 2nd it stayed at home in the box until my Spigen Ultra Hybrid case arrived (which was a few days later). I was still using my S5 because I didn't want to take any chances.

After my case arrived I put it on but I still keep the original plastic film on the screen because I was waiting for my Skinomi screen protector to arrive. My Skinomi arrived yesterday and I installed it last night.

So if you don't want a bulky case get the Spigen Ultra Hybrid (I went with the crystal clear color). I ordered my case and screen protector from Amazon. The case is very nice looking and doesn't add any bulk to the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] nobnut:
Oh my.

It usually sits on "looking for changes" for the majority of this time. My Exchange account will do this in under 30 seconds. Anyone know why this is? I had this problem with my hermes as well. Im sure its something with Windows mobile or gmail and not the phone. Just curious if this happens to everyone. Thanks.

my Gmail account does not work at all :(

I had to use FlexMail to get it to work

I had a similar problem with Pocket Live Hotmail (using Outlook Pocket of course), it took the client about3-5 min saying "synchronizing Inbox'' but after that.. I get a message saying I could not communicate with the server..

thankfully, with the help of one of xda-dev members, it turned out that when you have very large inbox, Outlook will not work...so I organize my Inbox, and divided it into folders, and it works very well now...

you might have a similar problem...and maybe this is why it is taking so long to retrieve your emails...

BTW, if anyone knows how to get Gmail to work with Outlook, I'd really appreciate that :)

cheers
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] njxbean:
Thanks. It very well could be my inbox It is very large. I will try putting it into folders. I am using gmail with pocket outlook with no issues. I use the automatic settings that the device found.

Maybe i'm doing this wrong..

i've got a Kingston Micro SD class 10 uhs-i U3 - 90MB/s Read 80MB/s Write 64GB

I know i won't get those speeds on my mobile..

I enabled adoptable storage -

run benchmarks -

around 40MB/s Read Speed and 14 MB/s Write Speed

disappointed - i then formatted the SD to Portable

Same Test

70MB/sec Read 45MB/sec Writes

-

i guess that in some of the benches when using adoptable it may be skewed because it might start using the internal memory - yet it was slower..

why is this? Encryption? Thinking where to write?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] JS_racer:
wow, thats a huge difference.

formatted in the phone ?? hmm, now i wounder if i would get any better speeds with a format
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] peachpuff:
I would imagine so, try enabling encryption on your sdcard now and see if the scores are identical to when you had adoptable storage enabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] acoloss:
Thanks.

I just enabled encryption of SD card but i'm still getting the faster speeds

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] acoloss:
anyone any ideas? anyone else tested?

is this normal behaviour?
[General Questions and Answers] Black Stabbath:
This is my first post on these forums and hopefully I'm doing that in correct section.

Over past weeks phone frozen and rebooted on its own several times, each time it was preceded by loss of network signal in subway. Once after that happened phone booted into system activation screen just like starting phone for the first time or after using "reset to factory settings".

Now comes the strange part. When on this first screen I get constant popups that some app in background has been stopped. I'm able to get past that to next screen. When I type in the email and accept it will be stuck on connecting forever. If I chose to skip and fill my name form I get back to empty form after accepting.

When I booted to recovery mode I noticed error at the bottom of the screen about not being able to mount /Data if I recall correctly.

When I tried to use Heimdall to flash CWM I received error saying: Failed to initialize protocool.

Any ideas how to fix it? What I'd like to do first is connect to the phone with some software and back up my data if any of it is still left.

Help will be appreciated.

[Java for Android App Development] MclDev00:
As far as I am aware, restricted calls have the number intact but there is a flag called PRESENTATION_RESTRICTED in CLIR which is set that instructs the receiving end to not display the number to the user.

I was looking at the AOSP source and there was a certain section where the operating system checks for the restricted/CLIR flag and if it is set, removes the caller Id and phone number.

Perhaps someone with more knowledge could tell me whether the number is really sent to the user? If so then it should be possible to build an xposed module or patch AOSP to remove this restriction.
