[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jungleexplorer:
I am with AT&T. For the last three years I have used an Sony Xperia V on the AT&T network without problems. I have gotten great signal strength anywhere I go with the Xperia V. The GPS antenna gave out on it and I went looking for a new Xperia. I landed on the Z3 and order the international model (D6603). I got it and got a new AT&T Nano sims for it down at my local AT&T store and the phone worked right away. I downloaded the AT&T APN settings and got the data to work. The Z3 works and can make calls, text and it gets data service (only H+ though). I absolutely love my new Xperia Z3 (functionality wise). The only problem is that I have almost no signal.

Now, I know that there is good signal strength where I am at because I have used my Xperia V in this area for 3 years and I have always had full bars of signal in my area. My Z3 only gets 1 to 2 bars, and sometimes none. My wife has a Galaxy S4 (with AT&T) and gets full signal in out home. We were on the road yesterday and I was on the phone with my mother and the call dropped because of no signal. My phone had the little red X on the signal bar. I looked my wife's S4 phone to see if she had signal and she had full signal strength. For about 20 miles (in an area I know there is good signal) the Z3 could not pick up any signal at all, but my wife's S4 had full signal strength and was doing facebook the whole time.

I have done many searches about this and have found many other people that have the same problem on many different models of unlocked phones when it comes to at&t. I am just wondering if anyone has found a fix?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jungleexplorer:
Okay. So I think I found the problem. The problem is with the 3G and 4G bands. I downloaded the LTE Discovery app and ran it on my Z3. Here is a screen shot.

[IMG="Screenshot Z3"]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-LqxTQN5ehTE/V8Bx1hOgP4I/AAAAAAADFl8/UzALH_1BFtAHbqCblGDjJJpT_mpOcPjJwCL0B/w462-h821-no/Screenshot_20160825-154634.png[/IMG]

Then I took the sims card out of my wife's S4 and put it in my old Xperia V phone. Sure enough, just like always, it got full signal. So I ran the LTE discovery app on it. Here is the screen shot from the V.

[IMG="Screenshot Xperia V"]https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-lexCT616xS0/V8ByLyQqQSI/AAAAAAAAGok/miOgD6qr_F4p7KRrmPgDns5q0-MyDk9PACL0B/w462-h821-no/Screenshot_2016-08-25-16-07-23.png[/IMG]

So we can see that the reason the V is getting full signal is that it is operating on HSPA+ and the Z3 is operatiing on 4G LTE. Now I don't now why this is happening. Perhaps there is a 3G tower that is closer to me, or the 3G band travels farther then the 4G. I don't know anything about tower strength and technology. Anyone else have some ideas?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adrift98:
This doesn't appear to be a mic issue, since I can still give commands to Ok Google and the like without issue. I did mess around with a Volume Boost mod that tweaked the mixer_paths.xml file a bit ago, and I'm wondering if that was the culprit. At the time, I didn't think to back up the original file, but the thread included a backup, which might have been for a different build (it looks like that backup has since been removed, so I can't check to verify).

Could someone upload the default "mixer_paths.xml" file for build 32.2.A.0.253, so I can see if that's where the fault lie?

Thanks for any help anyone may be able to offer.

Do they have the permission to "Register voice" ?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adrift98:
I'm not certain, but I eventually got the issue resolved by replacing the mixer_paths.xml file in another thread. So all's good now.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] NabiUsser56:
My big sister has a nabi 2 star wars edition Rooted with blue morpho on it she wanted me to install Lucky patcher so she could purchase the full version of some games she had been playing so I installed it and Xposed but it couldn't install I had already installed busybox on it when I rebooted it was stuck in a bootloop I need suggestions for what I should do

I am going to try re-flashing Blue morpho but I need to know if it's safe
[Fuhu Nabi 2] aicjofs:
You have a backup of the star wars edition ROM? There has been little talk about the Star Wars version of the tablet, it's a Nabi2S and thats about all I know.
[Fuhu Nabi 2] NabiUsser56:
Does the Nabi 2S have a different model number than nabi 2? I am pretty sure the nabi was star wars edition i don't have a backup and the system partition had no extra space even before rooting so that may be the problem. I also was thinking maybe i could somehow get it to boot from A on the go cable connected to a dvd drive to somehow install linux on there or something i also have a android 5.0 installer iso if that might work

Here is the link to what exactly worked for many of us over in the S7E forum. We all had the same exact battery issues you guys are describing. Remember that the biggest thing is to turn off "all background reporting".

A temporary fix for battery drain.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] jrwingate6:
Has anyone tried this?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] edwardob:
iread it everywhere "stop background reporting"...

but no instructions howto do it????
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] EvoKnvl:
I tried it. So far, I see the huge improvement in battery. The phone seems to sleep now. I think the biggest thing for me was starting fresh. I wrote down all the programs I had and manually started from scratch, instead of restoring my backup (From a Nexus 6p.) Also, when I disabled programs, I only disabled the ATT stuff. I actually left all the Samsung stuff in, unless there was a duplicate Google app (Like Clock, Calendar etc.) I'll give it a couple days, but so far it's been a huge improvement for me.

I have heard that you don't have to factory reset to turn off the reporting. I recall someone mentioning it under the Google and Samsung settings, but I wasn't able to find it.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] TywinnLannister:
For Google:

Setting > Google > Upper right corner (3 dots) > Usage & Diagnostics > OFF

For Samsung:

Setting > General Management > Report Diagnostic Info > OFF

I agree with most of the points in OP's link.

I personally do not like the idea to disable cool features that sells the phone, like the Always On feature for instance. If I have to disable the whole thing I might as well just go back to iPhone 6 plus.

- Disabling packages for me drains battery more unfortunately, I tested this twice. Now I just disabled apps. Battery life is better this way.

- This helps tremendously in my case is to not use PUSH for email. I have 5 active accounts, only one uses PUSH, the others use Fetch every 15/30 mins. My favorite email app is CloudMagic, I like them for their cleanest UI, unfortunately they don't support Fetch, so I went back to Samsung Email (I'm not a big fan of Type App either)

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] TywinnLannister:
It doesn't literally say reporting, it's more about usage and diagnostic
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] jrwingate6:
Those slick bastards either changed it or moved it. It is exactly right there in that menu on the S7E.

There are other areas within the settings that also have options to turn usage statistics off. Both Google and Samsung has background reporting. I don't know my way around the Note menu since I don't have the phone so the only way I know to opt out is to do a factory reset and do it during the device set up.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] meboy:
It's the Android system and os drain bug that started with MM.

The things listed in that thread won't fix it.

No verified way to fix it as of yet.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] jrwingate6:
Multiple people including myself had Android System usage go down to a decent percentage after following these steps. Some of us were around 50% Android usage and that dropped down to around 10-15%.

Also not using Google Now with location set to on helps a lot with Android System usage.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] w2830:
What packages you disabled caused battery drain? I'm also using CloudMagic. Guess I better look into it.

I just reset the network connections as described in the video, cleared the cache with a cache cleaning app, and reboot the phone.

So far, battery drain issue has improved.

[Verizon LG G3] clrdraw:
For some reason, my phone's been having trouble sending and receiving text messages lately.

I recently wiped everything and followed this guide to go back to stock. Since then I've been having abnormally poor connecting over data, trouble sending texts, and frequently receive a notification telling me that I'm roaming — even though I've never had trouble in this location before. I realized that my IMEI number had been reset to zero, so I restored it using this method. I've since flashed the 35b bootstack and did a clean install of Dirty Unicorn 10.5. I'm still having problems on the new ROM and bootstack.

I went to the hidden testing menu (by entering *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer). I'm not sure what most of it means, but here are some things that looked strange:

"CellInfo: mRegistered=NO"

"GSM service: Emergency calls only"

"GPRS service: Disconnected"

Any ideas? I just need this phone to last another month or so, until the new Nexus comes out. Any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Did you flash the TOT or KDZ? TOTs can fix things nothing else, even KDZs can't, so just wanted to be sure.

Once you restored the IMEI while on 100% stock non-rooted, did you confirm that everything was working okay then? Non-stock and international stock-based ROMs sometimes mess things up that also nothing else fixes except a TOT or KDZ, although I always recommend TOT since scrub again, they can fix things that KDZs can't.

Also, for the future, you can make a backup in TWRP of your EFS which includes your IMEI, which makes it even easier to restore.
[Verizon LG G3] clrdraw:
I definitely flashed the tot, I don't know if I flashed the kdz. I have the kdz in the folder like the tutorial said but I didn't specifically send it to the LG Flash Tool.

After returning to stock I didn't notice SMS problems but that doesn't mean much since I didn't have stock for very long. I did notice that I was roaming a lot more than usual, which leads me to believe that the problems existed before flashing a custom ROM.

Also, thanks for the advice with backing up EFS! If I get a new phone in a couple months I'll definitely do that.

Also, just for clarification's sake: I'm having no problems accessing the internet on data only, and also no problems making phone calls. The bizarre thing is only texts seem to have trouble... They eventually get through after a day of walking around campus but in most buildings they never send.

I'm going to reset again now, and I'll make sure both files get flashed.
[Verizon LG G3] roirraW "edor" ehT:
If by both files you mean TOT and KDZ, that's not necessary, just TOT. I'd avoid non-stock if I were you, and if you fool around with non-stock again, I'd flash the TOT yet again before doing anything else.

Opera recently released an android app of their VPN service. Have managed to side load it and get it to load but get stuck on a confirmation dialogue from the fire tv asking to allow the vpn access. Tried mouse, keyboard but have had no luck. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

The App In Question

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.vpn&hl=en_GB
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] emc2cube:
Got this step working using the remote to select OK.

But then, while VPN is connected, the FireTV don't seem to detect an active Internet connection.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] FreakyGeekz:
Will have to try and give it another go. I tried with keyboard, mouse and remote and it wouldn't press it.

Strange how it's not detecting connection. Thought it would be the same as any other vpn app. I tried ipvanish not to long ago which worked perfect straight from the app.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] FreakyGeekz:
Managed to get it to work in the end. Used remote as emc2cube suggested (thanking you) and got it to confirm settings. Also I have it on both wired and wireless boxes (fire tv 2) and both are working perfectly. What's better than a free VPN.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] emc2cube:
Good to know it worked for you.

I don't know why mine don't detect the network while running then.

Between the fact that mine is a stick, I'm currently abroad and the WiFi is pretty poor that's a lot of possibilities.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jockyw2001:
I am obviously too stupid. I installed the app on my fire tv 1st gen and am stuck at the very same point. I click the, what I assume, is the okay button on the Amazon remote but nothing happens. Did you use another remote?
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] emc2cube:
You have to use the "arrow buttons" of the remote until the OK is selected (orange) on the pop up, then you can use the OK/select button of the remote to validate.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jockyw2001:
I can pass the first dialog, then there are 5 nag screens with the last one has the Olaf viking on top in the middle it says "You're Set" and bottom right "GOT IT". Whatever I click, I can't select the GOT IT and nowhere I see an OK button. Where is that located? And I don't get a popup. PS: I installed latest firmware.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] emc2cube:
For that you must use a BT mouse. Fortunately once it's set up you only need the remote to connect. (Even if it still not working for me on the Stick :/ )
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jockyw2001:
BT mouse? USB mouse won't work? Then hopefully an Apple mouse works
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] emc2cube:
My bad, I'm still thinking for the stick (where the apple mouse is actually working).

USB mouse will do it for you.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jockyw2001:
Thanks! I am up and running live tv :)
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] userwaldo:
I've had problems with random reboots since I got my Moto X Pure last November. I kept hoping that a software update would solve the problem, but so far nothing has helped. In fact is seems to be getting worse with updates, not any better. Since I have an unlocked bootloader I can't send it back for repair, so I'm kind of stuck, but it is really frustrating.

It only happens when I'm at work, and it doesn't matter if I'm using my phone, its just sitting on my desk or if it's in my pocket. It will just randomly reboot. And sometimes when it gets in this state it will just keep rebooting over and over and I have to force it to shut down. If I leave it for a while and then restart it will be fine for a little while.

I was very excited about the Moto X as I've always had good luck with Motorola phones in the past. It has a lot of upsides, but this constand rebooting has made me question going with Motorola.

If I could sovle this, I'd be happy to keep the phone, but at this point its not really usable.

Sorr that this is a bit of a rant, but I'm just really frustrated.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] metaleloi666:
Could it be related to very weak wifi signal? In my case, at work, wifi was so weak that it killed the battery because it was always searching for a network and will always gets disconnected. I solved it by disabling the wifi when at work and only using LTE.

In your case, it's worse than killing the battery as it reboots, but maybe you could try to disable wifi to see if it helps?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] userwaldo:
Thanks for the idea.

I don't use WiFi at the office. We have pico cells in the office that give really good coverage and I don't use much data while working. But I'll try disabling WiFi and see if I see any difference.

Its so random that I've had a really hard time pinpointing the issue. So any ideas on how to find out the root cause would be much appreciated.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QuantumFluxx:
I am sorry to hear you are having trouble. My device also has an unlocked bootloader and has began to suffer random reboots. I get them at least once a day. It usually happens when I am pulling the device out of my pocket and the ambient [Moto] display is triggered. I am running the stock Motorola firmware (May), my device is encrypted, rooted with SuperSU, and running Xposed. Any similarities? I haven't had a chance to look at the logs.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] userwaldo:
Thanks for the idea to check my WiFi.

I've been experimenting for a while and it seems that it was related to WiFi. We have a certificate based authentication on a hidden SSID wireless network. I had set this up on an older phone and it was imported as part of my Google backup. But because I didn't have a valid certificate it kept failing and retrying and eventually it would cause a reboot. I "forgot" the network so that my phone would stop trying to connect and it's been a couple of weeks since I had a reboot. So at this point I think it has been resolved.
