[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yekollu:
Hi Everyone,

I bought a Z3+ on the 2nd of July here in Germany and the Battery has been draining at an Alarming rate (I upgraded it to MM as soon as i got it out of the box)

In 6 hours i am down to 32% with 2 hours mins of SoT (Whatsapp messages and a few minutes of browsing) , 90 mins of Calls.

Also the battery stats shows very Basic information (attached file), the rows for GPS, WiFi etc right below the Battery graph is not there (or perhaps it was removed in Sony's UI?)

I have reset the phone once already, Wifi scanning is off, I never use bluetooth. I don't have the Facebook app. The apps that i have installed are Whatsapp, Yahoo Mail and DeutscheBahn Navigator

Should i ask for a replacement? The battery life is truly horrible
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhz21:
Did you do a soft reset? (That mantains your apps/files/information) or a full reset? (Where you need to enter your Google Account and install everything again.

Mine only stopped the battery drain with a full reset.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trilliard:
I saw this and other problems with 3 kitakami devices after the upgrade to MM, the only thing that helped solving all problems was allways to reflash (repair) the complete FW with Sony Companion. Attention this delete everything.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yekollu:
Reset as in Via Sony Companion Software (Software Repair).

Also is it possible to see Mobile Network Signal, WiFi, Awake, Screen ON, GPS under the Battery graph?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntwnisGr:
Also when the signal is poor and the device is overheating, it drains battery very fast. Although i also recommend re-install with xperia companion
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yekollu:
Re-installed/Repair done twice, the battery stays good for one or two cycles and goes back to being crappy again. Surprisingly there is no heating issue

The signal is never poor where i live and WiFi router is in my room and i turn WiFi off when i leave my house.

Anyway contacted Sony, they wanted me to send the phone to them and could not give a approximate time frame as to when they would send the mobile back but Amazon is offering me a refund/replacement.

Not sure if i should ask for a replacement or get a refund and get a different phone

Anyidea what is with the battery graph (attached image in the first post)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DZH1:
I would replace, all of the Z4/Z3+ phones I use get great battery , great SOT
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nica_ro:
Try battery stats and see what is using your Partial Kernel Wakelocks. For me it was the Google backup feature.
[Sony Xperia X Performance Guides, News, & Discussi] macklobell:
I just received the Xperia X (usa version). When I go into a specific building that has bad reception my Xperia Z5 always was able to work fine and get internet. The Xperia X won't receive calls and the internet just hangs. Does the X Performance have a better signal strength and antenna or is this just an anomaly of the Xperia X?
[Sony Xperia X Performance Guides, News, & Discussi] HellRoot:
My Xperia x performance has the same as z3...don't know how that is compared to the z5 though but have not had any problems
[Sony Xperia X Performance Guides, News, & Discussi] dillalade:
X has cat6. Perofrmance has cat9.

However that's a speed connectivity comparison & not necessarily a connection advancement, I maybe wrong.

The 2 main features that the Perofrmance has over X is... Cat9 & the 820cpu
[Sony Xperia X Performance Guides, News, & Discussi] funiewski:

No good - T-Mobile & AT&T

Comment with newest firmware as of 27 September 2016

----------------------

I am pretty disappointed by the performance of this Sony X "Performance" regarding signal strength.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 next to it at a window and the X Performance gets a regular 60% slower performance than the S6 next to it that was released a year before.

I have tried it with both T-Mobile and AT&T in the same location.

I believe it to be a software issue at this point. Why do Sony phones these days have these terrible game ending problems?
[Windows 10 Mobile] Shyuura:
Hello!

So I've recently bought a TPLINK ARCHER D5 router to use for my home network, all devices (laptop, consoles, android tablet etc.) can connect to internet correctly on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz wifi except my lumia 930, the weird thing is that my phone works with other routers, like the one I previously had or at work but not with the Archer D5.

At first, it displayed a "No internet connection" whenever i tried to connect to my wifi, i fixed that by reserving an ip address for my phone, changing dns to google's and enabling DMZ (dunno if it helps though). But sometime my phone randomly disconnects and shows "No internet connection" and even if it shows Connected, I still can't access the internet through the browser or any other application.

Tried rebooting the phone, updating the device to all sorts of available builds and removing wifi encryption but to no avail. please I need some help solving this issue!!!

Currently running build 14379 and experienced this issue on previous ones too (10586).

Thank you!
[Windows 10 Mobile] w.bogdan:
Try using only 2.4GHz and choose a channel between 1 and 11.
[Windows 10 Mobile] Shyuura:
I tried disabling 5Ghz and keeping only 2.4Ghz on channel 1, doesn't change anything! Also removed encryption, disabled WPS and tried other encryption mode such as TKIP/AES/WEP still nothing.
[Windows 10 Mobile] w.bogdan:
Have you tried updating the router's firmware?
[Windows 10 Mobile] Shyuura:
Yes updated it to the latest available version Archer D5(EU)_V2_160517 but the issue remains. My phone works just fine with other routers and my home router works fine with all the devices in my home ... it's kinda confusing.

New Development for Samsung SGH-1437P?

I'm New to this and spent about an hour looking for the answer to this question. I suspect that the Samsung SGH-1437P is fairly old Technology even though I just bought it through a friend of mine. I guess I'm going to find out if $100. for this phone is really a good deal or not.

What I am Looking for:

I was able to root the phone and rid it of all the AT&T Bloatware and I was able to ReFlash the rom with the currently posted compatible CyanogenMod Version 11-201606612-NIGHTLY-expressatt ! At Least I believe THAT is the most current. If there are other Newer or better custom roms I'd like to know about it. It says the build date is Sun Jun 12 00:47:37 PDT 2016 so it probably is. I also have another question.

I forgot to back up my apps and I have some that were purchased thru the Google PlayStore. Am I hosed?

Thank you for this consideration. Murph.:D
[General Questions and Answers] hchawla98:
I was installed with Twrp and had rooted my oneplus 3.

I unticked root access in supersu.

Booted to bootloader and typed on my pc in command prompt ,"Fastboot oem lock"

This gave a confirmation on my device,I confirmed locking.

And after that my device did not booted up.I managed to get in bootloader again as I was not even able to open the recovery and unlocked the bootloader once again by this my device booted up.

I flashed stock recovery and repeated the relocking process,this time I was able to open recovery also but no able to boot up.

I again unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp back turned my device up.

Then I unchecked oem unlocking under developer options.

Relocked the bootloader once again.

And now I am stuck at bootloader,not able to unlock it even this time as I turned off oem unlocking.

Now I can only open bootloader.

Please help!
[General Questions and Answers] PalmCentro:
OEM locking a bootloader on a phone that was rooted is a big mistake.

You'll need to flash stock recovery, then flash the stock ROM via adb sideload.

Can be done with this tool http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/development/toolkit-oneplus-3-toolkit-unlock-t3398799
[General Questions and Answers] hchawla98:
Thanks for reply

with that tool I was only able to wipe cache.

Nothing else is working

It says failed
[General Questions and Answers] PalmCentro:
Can you access stock recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] hchawla98:
NO

I can't access it as I am installed with TWRP Recovery as it is also not starting.

Both system.zip files extract to system.tar.md5 which is what you need to flash in Odin. You are extracting the tar.md5 file which Odin will not flash.

No TWRP after flashing with ODIN

Ok, did a factory reset. Allowed unknown sources. Using Odin from this thread: Clicked "AP" and added the patched twrp "recovery.tar.md5 (also tried removing .md5 from extension), plug in phone while in ODIN/Bootloader and it's added to ODIN, hit "Start" flash shows it succeeds and phone restarts. I go back into bootloader (Vol Down+Power+Home)and there is no recovery option... Am I missing something?

NVM. VOL *UP* + Power + Home to get into Recovery. I'm rusty. lol
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] DanHutchins:
I agree with bfoos never use reactivation lock and never have issues.

---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

You are missing something. Recovery mode is vol. Oposit of the vol. That gets you into odin. So if you press vol. down + home + power for odin then recovery is vol. up + home + power.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Itsallme2:
what should the systems file be

renamed to?
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] DanHutchins:
You don't rename anything. Just flash with odin

Any files for SM-S920L for Marshmallow you know of?

First of all - a huge THANKS for this post! I am never an early adopter - typically always a few versions behind due to economics. I picked up a reconditioned SM-S920L recently (StraightTalk/Verizon). I had previously Googled and found I could root (Needed for Titanium Backup and other apps I use) but failed to realize there were 3 different variants and of course the SM-S920L had the fewest options. Anyways, came across your post and successfully got it rooted with SuperSu (never had conistent luck with King Root and the Titanium didn't like the outdated King Root binary.)

Anyway, prior to activating my phone with StraightTalk I was wondering if you knew of any Marshmallow images for this phone pre-rooted with SuperSu. What ever info you could provide would be awesome and again, thanks!

Hi guys. I am trying to flash the fixed TWRP to a rooted Tracfone version of this phone and it keeps failing.

Here are some pics.

I think the problem is that the bootloader is locked. There is no "Enable OEM unlock" option in my DEV Options menu.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
I tried to flash the .img file in the first post in flashify and now the phone appears to be bricked.

When I try to power up I get a "Custom Binary Blocked by Reactivation Lock" Secure Fail: Recovery.

You can't turn reactivation lock on and expect things to go smoothly. If you read all posts you would have found out that flashing anything with reactivation lock on bricks phones.

Were you able to turn it off? If so please post how you did it for others. It's been a challenge for some to turn it off after this occurs.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
I haven't been able to but I did google it so now I know what it is. Sorry for the miscommunication.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
In case anyone is wondering whenever I get stuck on the reactivation lock screen (where the phone refuses to boot into android) the way in

which i get it to get to boot into android again is to go into download mode, attempt to flash a file in ODIN (BL or AP does not seem to matter)

and after it fails to flash hold down the pwoer button so the phone attempts to reboot and and it will boot into android. just fine.

I have done this twice now.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
Just an update.

I was able to get the lock removed but I had to use a remote service offered on ebay.

Thew seller offers two services based on how much you screw up you phone.

If anyone wants the info PM me.

Just nabbed one of these for $45 at a Kmart closing sale. Got TWRP going and working on the rooted system image now.

The reason I'm posting as I'm a bit saddened by the lack of ROMs. Add me to the list of people who would love to see a rom or two show up (preferably one of the AOKP/Cyanogenmod variety).

I will say thanks to all who have gotten what is out there done... for a tracfone-related device I'm surprised I was able to swap bootloaders so easily.

[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
You would need to to load a stock image of the straight talk ROM onto some sort of USB flash driv. Plug the flash drive into an on the go cable and plug the cable into the phone and try to flash from there.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Corbow6:
So I have a weird issue. Went to factory reset my phone (Tracfone version) after rooting, and now I'm stuck on the Setup Wizard because the Samsung Account Service keeps stopping and causing it to loop during setup. Could I flash these files (even though they are Straighttalk) to get my phone working again? I'm guessing something in my firmware is corrupted, and doesn't load the services correctly upon reset, but I'm not sure. Any ideas would be great.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
I cant say for sure but when my phone boots it shows a tracfone splash screen but it only accepts straighttalk sims.

I have used the files in this thread on my phone extensively.

halp

This isnt working. I originally rooted by flashing twrp, than installing supersu. Everything worked, than I tried to flash a custom rom. I didn't work, i got stuck in a boot loop, which is called a soft brick i guess. Tried to flash other custom roms because restoration didn't. so after this it just got stuck on the Samsung screen, not even a boot loop. but it could still enter recovery. Tried using adp sideload to install a custom rom, i got the side load to work, it installed but still didnt help.

This morning i flashed the fixed twrp, system, boot, ect. Now i cant even enter recovery mode it boots into download mode. Please help.
[Galaxy Grand Prime General] Rommul:
I wasn't aware of any custom rom for this model.

What Rom are you flashing?

If you can boot into download mode Use Odin to flash TWRP again.

Start there.

Straight talk is tracfone.

Flash stock because there is no custom Roms for this phone. You must pay attention while flashing. If it's not for your phone don't flash.
