[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IrethTassartir:
Please, just to confirm, is this "image-volantis-n9f27l" official ROM or it's custom ROM?

I also use this bootloader : "bootloader-flounder-3.50.0.0143" since other ones didn't work for me.

I was with support trying to solve issue of Device restarting every time I install new app or update app, and while trying to clear cache partition, it gone to my device not wanting to boot. so i had to factory reset, and it still won't start android in full. so i have to reflash ROM. I guess.

I'm kinda lost now cause i don't know what to do.

As said i just want for my device to be rooted so i can delete all apps i don't need and change launcher (deleting existing one - well i don't know if it's smart or not. i figure why having two launcers when i will use only one).

And i want to play games and use apps without it failing on me all the time.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bookburner:
So this is happening on a parents axon 7 mini. I haven't duplicated it on my axon 7 yet. What happens is on certain incoming calls; the displayed number scrolls. So that you have to wait a few secs to see the whole number and decide if you want to answer. It used to just show the whole number and name associated with the contact. Don't know if this started with an update or not. But it only does it on some numbers. When I call it shows my whole name and number with no scrolling at all. But calling from a 800 number it scrolled. I can't find any settings to disable this or if it's even possible. Any body else experiencing this? Or know how to fix it.

Does anyone have an ad-free version of the BBC News app. I swear every video I try watching on the app plays the SAME ad. It's so annoying. Just wondering if there's a version of the app out there that's ad-free that I can use. Using adblock when my Note 5 was rooted just killed the ability to even watch videos on the app so maybe there's another version of it with ads removed or block natively on it? Or something, I don't know.

Thanks.

You can buy the adfree version.

I just view the BBC via Samsung beta web browser with adbloc but that doesn't stop the video ads. Agreed it's so irritating that I just don't bother watching the videos anymore.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davouy:
Yesterday i bought a new Nvidia Shield TV to replace my old Android TV box. It surprised me that almost all the APKs that i used in my old android TV, crashed as soon as i tried to open them in the shield.

They are all apks from south american tv channels that broadcast their live channels on them (i sideloaded them as they are not in the shield tv play store).

Is this normal? Im using the new Shield Experience 6.0 as i got the shield tv yesterday, so i had no chance to test the previous releases. All this apks worked on my Matricom Q Box amlogic android tv box, and i cant make them work in the Shield.

Is it something about the new Shield Experience update? Or the machine itself is not compatible with this small android apps in general?

Thank you!!!
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Jimbo0o:
Hi guys,

I have been trying to install the latest release of Xperia Home (11.0.A.0.1) from apkmirror but I'm getting an error:

App not installed.

The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name.

I've done some digging and found the same issue with the Samsungs. AllSmokeEm provided a solution (toggling secure startup settings) but I don't believe we have this option in Sonys.

I have a sneaky feeling that it has to do with the last security patch I've installed a few days ago (41.2.A.7.65), because I never had this issue before!

Thanks for the help.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ermond012:
I am using the latest update, the one you tried. I didn't have any problem upon installing it since I am a beta user so I get it from Update Center. I suggest you subscribe to the Xperia™ Home Open Beta community in Google+ to get updated. But if you don't like but still want to install the laest home, I see that there are two 11.0.A.0.1 files in apkmirror. Try the other one, you might be able to install it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] ermond012:
See the screenshot. If you downloaded the first one, try the second one or vice versa.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Jimbo0o:
Thank you very much for the help, it worked! I'll have a look in the beta community.

Thanks again.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] bruno$0:
Dear Friend. I had the same issue. The solution comes with root: Go to /system/priv-app/home-sonyericsson-release and rename the apk that exist in folder, copy the downloaded home and put the same name that original ones. Give the permission 755 ( -rwxr-xr-x ) and just to void some error perform the cache clean from the app . Search for "tela inicial Xperia" ( "initial Screen Xperia" or something like this ). After that, restart the device. Now you are using the last home version with no app drawer icon!

Guy's I need some help here please!

I can't decide which ROM is better for my SM-J500M. I've tried all ROMs available till now and loved every single one of them, but I want to stick to only one.

Which one of these two you guy's think its the most stable and better to keep with: LineageOS 14.1 or AICP?

Both are similar and have the same base but would be good tho have some advice from you.

So, which one you guy's recommend for me to stick with?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] GReaper-DEV:
I have LineageOS 14.1 by Dyenete. It's very good, no lags. But i will change it because i don't have to many modules and VPN also doesn't work in nougat custom ROMs.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Markie76:
Hi,

I got a Z3 which was described as stuck on the boot screen but it actually seems to work to some degree but no image is displayed on the screen and there is a robotic voice which sounds like a visual description tool/app.

When I collected the phone I was told they installed talkback then it all went wrong.

The phone turns on and displays the ‘SONY XPERIA’ start screen with a tiny strip of fuzzy lines at the bottom of the screen which disappear after a while but the white Sony text remains.

Then the backlight dims and the robotic voice starts like it is describing things on the screen BUT it is not understandable or in a foreign language. Every now and again there is a word which can be understood.

Pressing the power button it seems to lock/sleep with the voice announcement ending and it just sits there but occasionally it says something random.

If you press the power button the backlight comes on but the screen remains black - no image.

Using a stylus to tap around the screen the voice responds and it vibrates and you get pings and clicks as you would expect.

I seem to be able to get into the dialer/keyboard because it then reads outs numbers in English and possibly some letters.

Plugging in the charger the LED lights up as expected; Red - Orange - Green

It rings when I phone it and then the LED flashes white for a notification.

Powering it up while holding volume up - it vibrates 3 times.

Holding the off switch the red LED comes on and it vibrates.

When I connect it to Windows an icon appears in file explorer but blank when double clicked.

PC/Xperia companion opens & recognises it but displays the warning “Your device is locked - 1. Set Xperia to MTP mode”

I have tried one of those USB screen emulating/mirroring applications but it can’t connect either.

I tried Sony Mobile Flasher, but it tells me "Device connected with USB debugging off. For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode"

What can I do?

Your help much appreciated.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] silvernirvash:
trade it in? but i've only had it for less than a year. and does google even have a trade in option for the original pixel? i don't think i can afford the new one. nearly 1000$ for that thing. it's not worth that much. i just want my phone to work agian.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I was just being facetious. I know it's quite disheartening how all of a sudden every Pixel and xl have gone to pot. Scanner not working, battery life, etc. I don't know what I'm going to do either. But I don't like the options. Trade in for the XL and Pixel are too good. I'm going to let this play out for now. Not thrilled whatsoever.

[Huawei Watch] itm:
I'm thinking of trading in my Asus Zenwatch (v1) for a Huawei Watch (v1). One of the features that I love on the Zenwatch is the ability to take a photo by turning my wrist. Is that possible on the Huawei Watch, or do you need to tap the watch to take a picture? (not easy when your other hand is holding the phone!)
[Huawei Watch] hagba:
I have a camera application on my watch but tilt to take picture is no where to be found, have to tap the watch screen for that, but then again why do you need your watch to take a picture when you're holding the phone?
[Huawei Watch] itm:
Because in some situations I take photos with the phone at full arms length away from me - e.g. when I'm in a crowd and shooting overhead, or when I want to take a selfie with the main camera and get the widest possible angle. In those circumstances it's often difficult or impossible to hold the camera steady and press the shutter button with one hand.
[Huawei Watch] jimmbomb:
you're talking about using the watch to control the phone camera, correct?

Unless, the watch has its own camera?

is this possible?

thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rwcozens:
I know this topic has been posted before however I cannot believe that all of the developers, cooks and fanatics in this forum are unable to provide a fix to this query which I would be more than happy to donate for.

The call history on my Kaiser is by default limited to storing the last 2 weeks which is not satisfactory whatsoever which is why I would like a fix so the Kaiser does not have a time limit on the call history. I would like all my calls to remain on my Kaiser untill such time as I delete them manually.

All I want to now is whether this is possible or is there a 3rd party program which can do this? Thanking you in advance. Richard
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] @dom@:
Hi dude

I don't know the right registry tweak to fix it (maybe someother know it!) but you can try the SKTolls app, but it isn't free, more info about it here!

From the main menu -> Tune Up! -> Phone Edition Tab -> set it in the "Call history legth" option!!

Ciao
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] @dom@:
...again here :p

just now i found this registry key! Use any Regeditor and go here:

"HCU\ControlPannel\Phone" and edit the key "CallHistoryMax" but i don't well remember if the "0" value is for unlimited number or really 0, no history. However try first to set "0" , soft-reset and test it! If you haven't call history the "0" is that, so edit it again to a number you prefer (the limit is about 65500, anyway i think it's enough for you!)!;)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] the_passenger:
ok, wish granted, please send your donation to the creator of KaiserTweak.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
Haha! If only the OP had used the "search" feature to begin with! LOL!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rwcozens:
Would gladly donate and fortunately not stupid enough not to search.

I have both kaiser tweak where I have set call log to "Never" and have SK Tools where I have set call history length to maximum.

Could these 2 programs be conflicting each other?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] @dom@:
I've both these two apps installed, but, in my device, i didn't realize any conflict!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rwcozens:
Thanks for the reply. How long does your call history stay on your kaiser for just to establish whether your tweaks etc are working?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] @dom@:
...mmmh,i cannot answer you, or better, it's not useful for your purpose, because i've setted the number limit to 200 and the time limit to 1 month (it's enough for me), however i can only say that untill i don't manually delete the call history, it's always stored on my device without problem!!!

Some apps like mood messenger let you change how the emoji looks inside the app. But the note 8 default emojis show up everywhere else. I don't really like some of them, particularly the roll eyes emoji. It look looks a smirk haha

Is there a way to change it? Say to iOS styles or even the old Android blobs?

[Xperia Z4 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackKirk:
Hi, suddenly my tablet doesn´t boot. Everything seemed to be fine last time I used it (tuesday), then today I turn it on and got stock in Sony´s logo, reseted (vol up + power) and after sony´s logo just a black screen showed up and a blinking red light. Turn it off, I tried to charged it but when I plugged in the same thing happened when the charging battery logo should have appeared. I went to recovery mode everything seemed fine (I could even copy some files to external sd). I connected it to the computer fastboot is working fine; I clean flash it with flashtool to 32.4.A.0.160 everything went fine, turned it on but still the same problem. Fastboot is working fine, I even reinstalled TWRP and I have access to the recovery. My tablet was running 32.4.A.0.160, kernel by Nimadroid, Super SU, TWRP recovery. I don´t remember having done something risky (flashing something, didn´t turn on myXperia), the only thing I did before was intalling WhatsApp, but I turned the tablet off twice and used it two different days before this happend. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
