I have the Blackballs edit of this ROM and I have problem with games Dungeon Hunter 4 and Dark Swords (both installed today) , they just freeze after a while and screen stop working so i can't even press home button or something, I have to lock the phone, it takes some time till the screen turns off and then after unlocking, game is running again, but again just for a while, then freeze and the same happen again. But when i go to home screen after that nothing happens. I don't know if its because of ROM, I didn't try that games on stock or anytime before.

PS. Sorry for my english.

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Santos8913:
My already dropped some times, but there is nothing wrong in its outside and its functionality remains excellent taking this error now. And the status bar down the normal horizontally, so it's not the hardware. It's a software bug and also does little more than a year have the appliance. I've seen some reports of the same problem in the Xperia line on the Internet, just not speak the solution exactly. I took an original firmware and put one here too, I do not know if it has to do with the problem.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Santos8913:
the top of the screen is the normal friend, as I said, the landscape mode screen functions normally, even when I'm playing a game, the problem is a software error, if the display hardware would have committed it all

[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Hello !

I've a new Xperia E1 Dual (2105).

I've successfully rooted it, thanks to the information I've found on this forum.

Now I've some questions :

1) on my previous phone (Xperia X8) I had a recovery screen accessible upon reboot onto which I could make backups of the whole software on the SDCARD. I would like to have the same on the E1 but I can't find nothing to make this work. What should I do ?

2) Is there any advantage to run a custom ROM on this device, given it already has 4.4 ? (the X8 needed a custom ROM to go beyond 1.6 or 2.1 version Sony delivered).

Many thanks in advance for your help !
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Recovery requires unlocked bootloader

Yes, you can backup stuff using PhilZ or TWRP. You can get into recovery by tapping the walkman button during Sony logo

We are currently stuck on 4.4.2, but there are many Stock ROM mods that speeds up it up the phone, such as KillaMade, Illumination, etc.. It frees your time enchancing the ROM, or If you are completely new to Android, It avoids you to give a few headache :D

If you are unsure what to do, check my guide, It is mostly noob-friendly
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Thank you for your answer.

I'm a bit confused because I am not able to install TWRP because it says that my phone is unsupported.

I've cleaned bloatware using RUninstaller (backing up each APK before removing it) and moved the backuped APK to the SDCard and to my PC for a possible re-install. But I would have liked to make a backup of all the files with the device cold before tweaking ... I like having belt and suspender when going wild ;)
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Just saying using any TWRP app will always say E1 is incompatible, because it is not supported (officially) daily

However, you can install TWRP here: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-e1/orig-development/recovery-main-thread-twrp-xperia-e1-t3323159

As I said It requires unlocked bootloader, otherwise you can't get into recovery :)
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Thank you for your answer !

I've read about unlocking the bootloader and saw that it will reset the phone/apps/settings to factory default.

I should have done it long before ....

But I wonder if there is a way to backup everything BEFORE unlocking and, restore after unlocking to get my settings back.

What do you think ?
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Unfortunately I don't have a locked BL, so I can't really tell you how to make the recovery work, though there are many threads about how to boot into PhilZ under locked BL [MENTION=5930646]xezrunner[/MENTION]

If you do however manage to flash PhilZ, you can backup your entire system along with apps, data, and etc..

I suggest backing up TA, If you ever need to relock the BL back again to make use of the warranty
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Here's the appropiate thread on how to install recovery on a locked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Thank you very much but I've already used that and installed a recovery. You are late by a couple of hours. :o

I was able to do a backup of my present configuration and even make a "custom ROM" with the actual phone. So I'm very pleased !

I looked into the service menu and saw that my boot loader is not locked and that I've no DRM installed (maybe that's because my phone is a plain Sony one ? without any paid application ? )

Now, I've just to use the thread about changing the behavior of the Walkman button in order to disable it...

Thank to all who responded and provided help ! I'm an IT guy but far from an Android guy ! And I would not have done this without you !

Edit :

An additional question :

Now, I still have a locked bootloader (because I did not unlock it) and a recovery installed (PhilZ). Do you think I could install TRWP rescue still without unlocking the BL ? (this way I may keep the warranty of the phone ?)
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
TWRP is in a different image file (recovery.img), which locked BLs will never be able to boot in it

PhilZ is stored in the kernel (boot.img), so you can easily flash another ftf file to erase the kernel If you need to deliver the phone to your provider

(some providers take this seriously as this is a great excuse for them to ask for more money, or even worse, refuse to repair it, however Sony is still pretty calm about things like this)

As long as your BL is locked, and your TA is intact, your warranty is safe
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
The Xperia E1 has no DRMs whatsoever. What DRMs could you even have? The camera lacks any enchancements Sony has for the other devices...
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Ah ! OK !

This clarifies a lot of things. I was wondering what's this DRM thing was about.

Last question, do you know if one can backup the official ROM downloaded through Sony PC Companion during "Repair phone" operation ?
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
There's a much better way to get a .ftf file that you can flash with Flashtool. Use XperiFirm.
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Thank you thank you thank you !

It's amazing the volume and quality of information I got asking simple questions.

I would have had to read thousand of pages of this forum to get that much ! You definitely saved me weeks of investment.

Do you know if I can install a Sony software made for a different CDA phone ? Because I have an old X8 which came with Orange branding and it has been so badly configured it is a pity. So I would like to try it with plain Sony Ericsson software and compare with the ROM I tested on it.

Have a bright nice day !
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Absolutely, you can flash any kind of firmware and it will work as long as it's for that specific model. You might experience some issues like no 3G if the firmware was made for a country that has no 3G support or has a different kind of cellular reception. But that's rare. The amount of bloat also varies beetween firmwares, of course. Kizoky has made a thread on all the firmwares available in XperiFirm with the fewest amount of bloat, I'm using the Turkey one and it's working really nice.

Glad to be of help! :)
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Hello !

Here I am again !

I've a question I can't solve myself.

I've searched and didn't find an answer.

When I'm at work, I would like to send some calls directly to the answering machine without the phone even ringing. Mostly the personal calls because I can't get any privacy when at work.

Before the Android Era, I had a phone with a white list and a black list. And you could manage the actions for the white or the black lists. This served me well.

On my Android 4.4 I did not find something similar.

I would be delighted to get some help from you guys !

Thanks in advance for your answer.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Ugh, now that's some tough question.

Try asking in here: http://xdaforums.com/android/help
[Sony Xperia E1] georgesgiralt:
Kizoky,

Thank you for your answer. Actually, i had an idea to search for just blacklist android. It was more productive this way. I've to learn how to search ...

I've found two ways : the first one (not working) is to activate the black list from the settings in the contacts. The second one is to download an app to do just that. For now, I've to find one acting just on the phone call and not on the SMS. Funny Sony or Google did not think it was a need to fulfil ...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] kevinh923:
I recently bought an unlocked verizon note 4 on ebay. It had android 5.0.1 and the company had factory reset the phone. I had the same problem that several others had when attempting to use my T-Mobile sim card. The phone would recognize my sim card but it would just say "searching for service". The easy solution to this problem is to activate the phone with a verizon sim card that has working data. IT WILL NOT WORK USING WIFI. However, I didn't have a verizon sim with data nor did any of my friends. Every single verizon store around my area was no help either.

The solution to this is to buy any old verizon sim card (I bought one used for $1 off ebay) then downgrade to 4.4 Kitkat, turn on the phone with your verizon sim in and BYPASS THE ACTIVATION by clicking skip on everything. You will then be at the home screen and the phone will recognize the verizon sim even though it does not have an active plan. You can then swap in your T-mobile, Simple Mobile, At&t, etc sim card and it'll work.

I tried the above method on 5.0 Lollipop but it didn't work. I had to downgrade to KitKat. Hope this helps someone who was in the same situation as me!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] johntraveler:
how did you downgrade the phone
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] kevinh923:
search on google "downgrade verizon note 4 to kitkat". You'll find a few sites with step by step instructions as well as links to everything you need.

z3

i had the same problem with my xperia z3 :(
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titoshadow:
Install "Service Menu" app from Store and do a touch display test, probably that's the issue :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
Thanks for this: I have successfully used the All in one Gestures app to get the quick-flick status bar pull-down to work on my Z3 Compact.

Googling indicates that this is a very common problem. Many people claim (eg on the Sony user support forums) to have fixed it by getting the digitizer changed. But if it can be fixed reliably by software then that suggests that it isn't a hardware fault. Other evidence against hardware being the culprit is that status bar pull-down works fine on the lockscreen

without

All in one Gestures being active, and that the Sony diagnostics for the screen indicate that it's working just fine. On the other hand, the fact that the status bar pull-down works fine in landscape mode suggests that it's not a simple software problem.

What I have noticed is that, when using All in one Gestures for status bar pull-down (in both portrait and landscape mode), the response is initially

very

slow - the status bar initially creeps down much more slowly than it does in landscape mode. Once down, though, it seems to work normally. I have observed the same behaviour using the Drop Down Status Bar app. This suggests to me that there might be something interfering with the Xperia Home app recognising or responding to the status bar pull-down gesture in portrait mode. Perhaps an app with "Draw over other apps" permission? Unfortunately I've no idea how that could be verified, or investigated further.

I have considered trying other versions of the Xperia Home app (my Z3C is running 10.2.A.2.80) or even joining Sony's Xperia Home beta testing program. But I'm a bit wary about mucking around with the Xperia Home app because every time I muck it up, it takes me ages to get it back the way I like it. I've run in to this at least twice in the last week while trying to troubleshoot the status bar pull-down, by accidentally deleting the default Google widget instead, which then seems to be impossible to restore without wiping data for Xperia Home and starting again from scratch (restoring Xperia Home data using Titanium Backup certainly doesn't do it).

UPDATE 2/5/18:

I've had to uninstall All in one Gestures. It was interfering with the stock camera app, pulling down the status bar when I tried to change camera modes or flash settings. It also seemed to make it completely impossible to use customised notification sounds.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] An1MuS_:
I thought this was a software problem at first for the same reason, but the thing about lockscreen is that it slides down due to the downwards movement, it doesn't matter where. Even if you do a downwards motion at the bottom, the status bar will come down.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
Sorry, I think you;re wrong about that: when I swipe downwards anywhere else on the lock screen, I get the prompt to enter my unlock pattern. Only if I swipe downwards from the very top of the screen does the status bar pull down. And that works every single time. So I still think it is a software problem.

As I said before, Sony's own hardware diagnostics app finds no problem with the digitizer, and if I use the DropDownStatusBar app then the status bar pulls down

very

slowly, which suggests the Xperia Home app is having some kind of trouble. Also, despite its other issues, the All in one Gestures app had no problem recognising a swipe down from the top of the screen. IMO the problem is somewhere in the Home app (I'd hypothesise some kind of timing problem that means that Home app takes so long to respond that, by the time it does, it doesn't know what it is supposed to be responding to, so it does nothing).

As a test, I experimented with the Simple Home app. The status bar pull down with that is just as good as on the lockscreen (and still nice and snappy, too).
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ejstubbs:
Well, in the absence of an actual fix for what I still believe is a problem with the Xperia Home app, I decided to experiment with the XDA Navigation Gestures app. This is looking very promising, once I can get used to only having one soft button rather than three (which actually seems to be relatively easy to get the hang of). You have to cough up a whole $1 for the premium edition to get the notification shade pull-down function added to the gesture list, but it works very well (albeit still a bit sluggish, as with the other apps I've tried to get around the problem). I currently have it linked to the double-tap on the 'pill'. One highly useful thing about it is that you can always get at the pull-down, rather than having to go back to the home screen and hunt around for an app icon.

Same problem Z3 compact

Hi, i`m recently having same issue in my z3c screen (top right side).

In general isn´t a hardware problem is a software issue, for example when i enable glove mode screen works with some problem but the screen fully works.

I think maybe an app or settings made the "bug" begin bacause my phone for a long time works fine. In my case could be something with rooting

I havent try jet but flashing z3c with a new rom could work for a fix, im not thinking doing it by known but if the screen "bug" make glove mode stop working ill be force to flash a new rom and try. And i let you know.

Ill wait because i have a z3c marshmallow with root and cyberian camera and i dont wanna lose features.
