[Xperia Play General] vetnuvit:
i have my hands on xperia play for over two years now and using it as my main phone since after optimizing. it is with stock rom, i use whatsapp, instagram (works without stories which i dont care about btw) and fblite (this version faster hold about 1 mb space and doesn't need messenger you can send and receive messages from the app). i have no major complaints about performance as i have disabled google services. using 64 gb sd card with link2sd i have tons of games, music and books (scientific articles and literature also). it pretty well runs most needed apps for anything if you ask me, i even use as metronome, guitar tab reader, sound recorder and hiit exercise helper and so on...

in my opinion biggest downside of the device that damn flex cable, causes most of the problems. so i stocked about 10 flex cables and a handful of batteries, planning to use this little devil for a long time :D
[Xperia Play General] inaroom:
so you are all on GB stock? what emulator do you use? have you tried retroarch?
[Xperia Play General] saqibkhan:
i was using fine until i inserted am empty MICRO SIMCARD SHELL to Normal SIM Size Converter.. when i pulled it out.. it broke my SIM CARD connectors....and after that i was not able to fix my beloved phone ever again.. just lying in my drawer now. any ideaS ?
[Xperia Play General] donteatsoap7:
I have a few questions, as a new user for this phone, aha.

First, how did you go about optimizing your's? Thank you for the heads up about fblite, as well. In regards to Google services, that disables the Play Store and Maps, correct? How would I go about disabling Google Services and use a GPS app still?

Also, unrelated, but what are some of these science articles and books? Sorry for all of the questions, I just like to learn, and I really want to make use of my XP, lol. Thanks. :cyclops:
[Xperia Play General] vetnuvit:
first of all i use stock rom gb 2.3.4. i rooted the phone and use link2sd to save space on internal memory of the phone. i even deleted some of the software included in the stock rom (there is a debloat thread in xda forum i dont exactly remember, but there you can find which software you can safely remove). it is essential what you dont link (using link2sd) to external sd card as this decides the main perfomance of the phone. i did not link fblite, whatsapp, main messaging and phone apps. these apps make access to sd card so often if you link them, when they all try to acces the sd card you will experience huuugee slowdowns.

This is where google services comes to mind, now here's the thing : you have to link this because it takes a lot of space in internal memory. and when i linked play services my phone was unbelievably slow (may be related to access speed of my sd card i dont know). so i had to freeze (with link2sd) it to gain performance. there are some disadvantages to this but they are all manageable. first google play store works just fine you can download and install apps without problem (buying and in app purchases work fine as well). gps should work fine too, may be mine is faulty but gps of xperia play is not receiving much signal. it is really really bad that i dont even try to use it (not much of a help there sorry). i use maps (stock version not updated as it takes much space) to find addresses without problem. main problem of freezing services is when backing up your data (ie. whatsapp message backup). to overcome this i manually back up my own data after unfreezing services, then i freeze it again.

bonus: whatsapp mentions that we will not be able to use whatsapp after feb 2020 as they will not support android 2.3.7 and earlier. (may be begging for a stable version that will work can be provided we have about 2 years to flood their mails... we need to form an alliance to constantly mail them.) i dont get the reasons actually it is a simple messaging service and we are just texting even old nokias should be able to do that...

regarding to my reading preferences i use google play books,(in my library there are free books like sherlock holmes and purchased books mostly about martial arts), FBreader for epubs, and ezPDF reader for articles on virology which is my profession as i can underline or highlight when i am working. reading performance is quite good with all apps as reading is indispensible part of my job. i mostly read classics like 1984, tale of two cities etc. when i have spare time in the lab. or if i am not in the mood i fight the s..t out in street fighter arcade.

i am on stock rom i tried retroarch did not like it (because it kept freezing). i use seperate emulators (namely mame4droid, myboy, ppsspp gold, drastic, scummvm, c64emu, epsxe, n64oid, snes9x ex).
[Xperia Play General] donteatsoap7:
Awesome, thanks a ton! I already have Link2SD and I love it! I'll look into freezing Google Services, especially if Maps works (somewhat, lol). Also, I'm unable to unlock my bootloader, so I'm pretty sure that I cannot change the ROM. Could I debloat it without a new ROM? (I'll search for the thread). I really want to start reading and I like sci-fi stuff, plus I have some epubs on my PC I've never used, lol. It seems like I neveer really focus on reading, even comics, but I want to at least try it sometime. Thank you for all of the information, it is greatly appreciated!

Also, about the emulators, I've been using MyBoy and MyOldBoy for GBA and GBC and they are amazing! I just installed PPSSPP and Persona 3 runs beautifully!

As Soon As I Get Home...

I got you later tonight as I was going to do this anyway as a part of trying to install Edge on Server 2016 using the Add-AppxPackage PowerShell script for DISM. Not wasting FLOPS on Windows Update and couldn't find a untouched .iso or .esd torrent of 1703 so it'll be from the latest Windows Insider build because I have access to that but not MSDN at the moment, I hope that is OK? I know you can download final versions of 1703 officially but it requires a license and I only have licenses for server editions and earlier versions of the client OS.

I will not post the extracted packages here as I am pretty sure this is all in violation of XDA TOS so anyone else interested should PM me here on XDA.

p.s. I'm also going to extract the Windows Store app...

[Google Chromecast] mnd86:
I have an old monitor Acer p221w with​ a resolution of 1680x1050, I connect the Chromecast 2 with a VGA to HDMI adapter, so the Chromecast at startup screen shows the image for a few seconds then bumps up it's resolution at the highest of it's capacity that leads to transmitting audio only and a black screen. As my screen isn't quite 1080 can I force Chromecast to scale down it's resolution?

Thanks!

You need to do that at the VGA Adapter...
[Touch Cruise General] hops:
A while back there used to be an application called "Potala Telly", It was a very "touch friendly" application and actually was very similar in concept to the cube.

The application had in my opinion the BEST speed dial application which allowed categories or folders of speed dials...

so you can have the friends speed dials, then the family speed dials and for example the work speed dials....all the categories were collapsable

Is it possible to achieve such functionality with touch cruise? or any other applications or tweaks which can accomplish this?
[Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karagerr:
Hello guys,

I'm a total beginner about ROMs, Recovery, Download, Fast-boot, etc. I don't really understand these things. In the past I did put TWRP Recovery in my phone to root my phone with a file that I flashed.

Yesterday, my Honor 7 proposed me to do the update to Android 6.0 (with several years delay :confused:). I downloaded the OTA, then i clicked on install and then my phone was bootlooping on a chinese TWRP Recovery by Cofface. There was an "update.zip" file that i tried to flash but it did an error, maybe i should have better extracted it ?

I asked for help a friend and he told me to flash a new TWRP with fastboot and ADB and all these things I don't understand and I did it, and it worked.

Now, I have the 5.0.2 ROM Factory New from the Honor 7, what should I do ? I really want to update to 6.0 or even 7.0 if possible, should i flash a ROM ? My phone is asking again for the OTA to 6.0 but I'm a bit scared because it downloads a "update.zip" file and I don't know what to do with.

If you could help me guys, it would be awesome, I'm a total beginner.

In case of need :

Honor 7

Build number : PLK-L01C432B190

Android Version : 5.0.2

EMUI Version : 3.1

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] androiddiego:
If you are on a custom rom you need to wait until the dev makes an update. Until then, if you don't want to see the continuous nag about the update you can do this:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=72463487&postcount=4237

Here's how I got rid of a previous update:

Rename otacerts.zip in /system/etc/security to otacerts.bak.

The full update is found in the cache partition called update.zip. Move the update.zip file from /cache directory (I put it on the sd card).

The next time you get the notification, selected to install it. See the attached. It said rebooting. It won't reboot because the necessary file is gone. Wait 10 seconds and touch the recents key and close the window. Done!

I rebooted the phone and no nag.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Jdddd21:
Hello I've been with a 3plus oneplus three days and I feel like it gets very hot. Then, I give you some photos of your temperature at rest. Using it rises up to 50 degrees easily.

I notice it gets very hot around the camera area.

It is normal? Are these values ​​normal?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pitrus-:
Considering the performance of the phone and your skin temperature around 37 degrees Celsius, it's doing a good job keeping a max of just 8 degrees over body temp. ?

Especially considering normal CPU temps on desktop computers maxing out somwhere around 80-100 degress with passive cooling ?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Jdddd21:
Hahaha, thank you, is that I'm a little new in the subject, I stay more calm knowing that the temperature is adequate. What would be a limit temperature?
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pitrus-:
Well, since it's designed for you holding the phone in your hand, instead of mounted on a motherboard with a huge copper cooler on top, temperatures above 50 degrees can feel a bit sweaty (unless your in a polar region or Swedish winter, in case it's just nice and warm on your hands ?).

Ambient temperature and load plays the biggest roles when it comes to phone temperature.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] pitrus-:
Probably some app of yours that went haywire causing heat up.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] kolembo:
I hope so...it was very unnerving! I had to take it out, reboot and let it sit for an hour or so.

It's happened about four or five times before, each time when I was carrying other phones so I thought perhaps there's something trying to communicate between them (either NFC or Nearby devices) and checked them all.

This time though it was the only phone I was carrying!

Anyway, love the phone and next update I'll refresh the full software. It's just that it got SO hot....!!

Let's see.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Darkscan:
I'm just an idiot. I hadn't done this in a long time, so for some reason I extracted the .img from the .zip, rather than downloading the image labeled fastboot.

On a related note though, do OTAs work with systemless root? Last I checked it was up in the air, but there's been some time now -- could someone link me, perhaps?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] exad:
it's supposed to work and I don't see why it wouldn't. (I never tried personally) but you will need to have the stock recovery for the OTA to flash.

[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] Lazerkitty:
The best option to fix this is to

1. Download SP Flash - spflashtool.com

Install USB VCOM Drivers:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4AxISENE1O_M2tfNkV5Q0tkRXM/view

Grab the stock ROM from here:

https://xdaforums.com/lenovo-a6000/how-to/firmware-lenovo-a6000-se-stock-rom-t3406693

Put this on your desktop somewhere easily accessible and make sure its unzipped.

Turn OFF your phone and pull the battery. Open SP Flash and go to options -> Download -> Make sure both those options have a checkmark in the boxes.

In the DROPDOWN box of SP Flash where you see Download change to 'Firmware Upgrade'.

Where you see the button that says Scatter Loading, press it and navigate to the scatter file in your Lenovo Stock ROM download. It will be the only file you see (text file) select it.

Now in SP Flash on the TOP where you see the GREEN Download Arrow, Click Download.

Now, with phone off and battery OUT, put battery back in phone...DO NOT turn it on, simply plug into your USB cable attached to your A536.

You will see SP Flash pop up a red bar on the bottom. Relax. You will then see a yellow bar showing its installing the firmware. When it is done you will see a box popup with a big green checkmark saying its done.

Unplug your phone and hit the power button.

Please let me know if you run into trouble. Follow my instructions and you will unbrick your device.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Shadow7789:
I have been working on my own firmware based on the AT&T 1.61 firmware, and I have run into an interesting problem. When I access the messages application, what used to be a "Text Messages" inbox (in some of my older ROMs) has become a "Messages" inbox. However, I did not install or build Arcsoft MMS into my firmware. Even more interesting is that there is an option to create a new MMS, but when it is selected, nothing happens. Has anyone else run into this before or does anyone have any suggestions for me?

My unfounded guess is that the problem has something to do with some file in the OperatorPKG folder (I only have the mxip files and the AudioPara file).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] GSLEON3:
Within the AT&T Rom you have a "Messages" Folder. This is for system Messages such as when you register OTA for Exchange/Blackberry service. It was always there in the folders, but it did NOT show up on the Account Selection page. Since the Text/MMS is woven into arcsoft you are left with only the System message account dubbed "Messages".

This is why you also at times will see posts about people saying HTC Home says they have messages, but Exchange/BBerry is empty.
