Ask for higher level support. Someone must know what to do. When I first started with VZW years ago I finally was connected to the one person who knew how to activate it. Now they all know but it took a while. Is switching carriers an option? Tell them your OEM unblocked it now it's up to you guys. Eventually they will need to send you a qr code for it to work.
[Google Pixel 7] xdagee:
Actually, I requested the eSIM from my provider. They sent an email following the steps with a QR code you just listed to activate my eSIM. I did that, and the end result is the screenshot that I posted. I called to report the issue, and I was told I should check with my OEM, (it happens because the OEM has blocked the eSIM). So I had to post here to find out if anyone is been faced with this issues.
[Google Pixel 7] xdagee:
Yes, exactly what I was thinking—I called again and got the same guy. So I will keep trying until I get a different person who will know how to activate it. Also, I'm hoping for a March update and will try again. Something will hopefully be fixed.
[Google Pixel 7] bobby janow:
There's nothing wrong with the phone so an update will not help. Keep trying.

If I am listening a song, and I minimize the windows media, the music stops!

How can this be avoided?

Also, when my device tries to connect, it pauses.

This is crap!!!!!:)

Does anybody know how to flash a Global ROM on xperia 5 ii Docomo? Is it available? Please help I am a noob to this
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
Hello everyone,

Is it possible to tweak, bring 50MPX raw from the S23 Ultra for S22 Ultra? Or even 24Mpx would be great.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
none ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Mariuszuzd:
I believe you only have two options, or 12 or 100 mpx :( maybe some additional app from the play store ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] neico2709:
I got an Update yesterday, bringing OneUI 5.1 and Expert RAW and many more features from S23 Ultra to S22 Ultra. Check for Updates maybe
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
The 3:4,108MP option is not available in Expert RAW.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] bluefish196:
Choose in the normal camera save raw and then 108MP and you get a jpg and dng file for each photo. Sadly Pro mode is locked at 12MP.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DoKaTSuYa:
Yes it locks to 12Mpx in Expert Raw, so that's why I asked if someone can tweak it to make 50Mpx possible like S23Ultra, or at least 24Mpx...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Village_Idiot:
"Normal" camera mode does not save any image in DNG. Only Expert RAW and Pro mode does. The phone does not save any images taken using the 3:4, 108MP mode in DNG; only JPG.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] magno:
Unhappy with android 13, but getting "CHECK FAIL(BOOTLOADER) DEVICE 5. BINARY: 3" in ODIN when trying to flash stock Android 11.

Boatloader is unlocked. Is there any way around this or am I stuck with 13 ?

Regards Magnus
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] ze7zez:
It is not possible to return to the previous version of the bootloader.

You have two solutions:

1. stay with the current firmware.

2. you flash TWRP and upload a custom ROM or custom stock ROM with android 11 ( if someone built it).

In the latter case, you will lose some features of the phone from the original firmware, but gain other properties of the custom ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] magno:
OK suspected that. Thx

I have a tablet called general mobile e-tab 1, I want to make it 4.0, but I could not enter fastboot with either key combinations or adb, recoverye cannot be entered with key combinations, only when I enter from adb with the adb reboot recovery command, the device resets itself directly, what can I do?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
Enter the exact model name from the system information about the tablet.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borakok:
Unfortunately, the exact model of the device is e-tab 1, there is no information on the internet, I could only find a few resources in Turkish, even there is no rom, so I will install the rom of the tabs named pipo t9s, which uses the same motherboard
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
Info for another model should also clarify how to flash.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borakok:
Unfortunately, the device does not start like this. Is there a solution other than adb and key combinations?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ze7zez:
You can add inserting the power/usb plug while pressing the keys in various combinations.

It may also be that the bootloader does not allow for a different mode of operation.

[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
Hi guys,

few weeks ago, the Xperia 10 IV of my girlfriend got Android 13. After the update, the device works fine, with some new features (as the possibility to choose between set of colors for the UI).

From this page on the Sony website, it seems that also our device will be updated in the next future:

[Sony Xperia 10 III] pernor998:
I have two XQ-BT52.

One of them got Android 13 (62.2.A.0.367) as OTA update earlier this week......and for the other identical device the update is not available. I check for system updated but it still claims I'm on latest release when still on 62.1.A.0.675

Strange, isn't it?
[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
do they have the same operator?
[Sony Xperia 10 III] pernor998:
I've 4 different operators from 3 countries in the SIM-slots of my two phones 🙂

....but I downloaded new rom with XperiFirm and flashed with newflasher so both phones are at same release now 🙂

(removed all .at-files and userdata-sin when flashing and it worked just fine )
[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
this is likely the cause: different operators release the updates in different dates ...

however you worked around the problem! ;)
[Sony Xperia 10 III] Dabronik:
Hi, I have a problem with uploading android 13 to Xperia 10 III via newflasher, everything seems to be uploading ok but after starting the phone there is a sony logo, a black screen, two vibrations and the sony logo again.

Not all regions received the update, flashing manually from another you will not receive the next update over the air.

did you specify slot a?

[Sony Xperia 10 III] combinedfleet:
There's a nasty bug in this version (62.2.A.0.367), where collapsing the OSK will abruptly take you to the previously used app if you have previously switched to the current app by the gesture of swiping along the bottom edge of the screen:

View attachment 5844277

This happens regardless of the keyboard you use (Gboard in the above video, also tested with Simple Keyboard from F-Droid).

Another pain point with this update, and with Android 13 in general, is that you can no longer use separate quick settings tiles for controlling Wi-Fi and Mobile data. In Android 12, it was still possible to bring it back by adding wifi,cell to sysui_qs_tiles. According to a quick search, this no longer works in Android 13 (I didn't bother actually trying it out on the 10 III because I doubt Sony would bring this feature back on their own).
[Sony Xperia 10 III] Matan.83:
Probably found something not working properly: I use my phone with a polar H10 Heart rate monitor and 3 different apps to monitor my workouts and after the update no app is able to read my heart rate from the H10, while it works fine on another much older phone... te 10 III sees the H10, identifies it properly, pairs to it, but does not read any data: no battery level, no HR, nothing...
[Sony Xperia 10 III] Trikk-e:
Unfortunately Wi-Fi and Data toggle are united once again... If I get to know this before I may not update...
[Sony Xperia 10 III] metooidk:
Time to back to Sony ROM!!(I use GSI now)
[Sony Xperia 10 III] psychofaktory:
Great to see our Xperia 10 III finaly got Android 13!

Currently I'm on 62.1.A.0.645 with LOS20 (GSI).

Now I wan't to upgrade firmware/vendor without loosing GSI or any data.

Can anybody tell how this can be done?
[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
With the new system release (Android 13) the volume levels can be managed again by the music apps, as Poweramp and UAPP Player, so it is possible to choose an higher number of steps, as 50 or 100, which is quite useful when listening music with headphones. In Android 12 the volume levels were limited to 30 in Sony Xperia models (which was not that bad in any case)
[Sony Xperia 10 III] lance6716:
Hi, do you know how to find the original region? I bought a used phone and it can't get OTA, I guess that's because it's in the wrong region
[Sony Xperia 10 III] itandy:
Finally upgraded my 10 III to A13 yesterday and rooted with Magisk. Everything works fine except there is a nasty bug on notification bar. All notifications would disappear after a while. Some said after the screen is turned off. I don't know exactly how it's triggered. But many are reporting the same issue with other Xperia phones on A13 in Reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyXperia/comments/ytlutw
[Sony Xperia 10 III] itandy:
For the disappearing notification issue, I think the problem appears only if I select "Don't show any notification" in lock screen settings.

And I found a temporary fix.

In Settings > Notifications > Notification on lock screen, select "Show conversations, default and silent". Then enable "Sensitive notifications" and "Keep notifications". Then select "Don't show any notification".

I suspect Android mistakenly take into consideration these 2 checkboxes during some redraw of the notification bar. Should be a minor fix for Sony.
[Sony Xperia 10 III] combinedfleet:
With today's 62.2.A.0.428 update the on-screen keyboard hiding bug is still present. Very disappointing. Maybe it's just me, but this makes the gesture navigation mode nearly impossible to use.

I discovered that the issue only affects the bottom part of the bottom "bar" near the screen's edge. If you tap or tap and hold on the half that is closer to the edge of the screen, you can switch to the previous app, but it's not supposed to work like that.

So what happens when you tap the down arrow to hide the keyboard is that both the down-arrow gets pressed, and the bottom half of the bar is tapped as well, triggering the unwanted switch to the previously used app.

If you are very careful, you can tap the bottom part of the down-arrow so that the keyboard is hidden and the app is not switched.

On another note, I get the impression that the screen somehow looks even worse than with with the initial Android 13 release, which already looked worse than Android 12 to me. I'm talking about the infamous greenish hue / bit depth crushing effect.
[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
What kind of System navigation are you using? I guess the classic 3-buttons, did you tried with the Gesture navigation?

I think the last one is far better and intuitive, and I have no problem in collapsing the keyboard (since you have to swipe the screen if you want to go back ...)

I also don't see any problem with the screen after any Android updates.
[Sony Xperia 10 III] combinedfleet:
I am using gesture navigation. It worked perfectly in Android 12 and 11, problems started with the "upgrade" to Android 13.

To trigger this bug, you have to:

Switch to the previous app by flicking to the right near the bottom of the screen.

Bring the on-screen keyboard into view.

Tap anywhere inside of a 84 pixels-high rectangular area located at the bottom of the screen.

In my case, this always results in an abrupt and unwanted switch to the app I've just switched from.

I've created a couple of videos with the rectangular area marked in green to hopefully illustrate the problem better:

It happens with all apps and apparently is not related to the on-screen keyboard I use. But just in case, do you use Gboard or some other keyboard?
[Sony Xperia 10 III] code010101:
yes, you are right, it happens to me too with the Microsoft SwiftKey Keyboard.

When I collapse the keyboard the OS switches to the last app used (that is the one on the rightmost side of the windows list)

While everything is ok if you put the apps in multi-window view.

At the moment the only solution seems to be to not collapse the keyboard(!)
[Sony Xperia 10 III] flugazi:

When I try to dump them in my windows folder i get the ACCESS DENIED make sure your mobile device has sufficent memory, that the file is not read only, and that you have permision to copy this file type.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] launemax:
Hy guys,

I'm wondering, if there is a way to change the launcher-app, that gets started, if a HDMI cable is plugged in using USB OTG.

Samsung already added a HDMI-Mode switch from Screen Mirroring to DeX Mode. Maybe there is a hack to get my own app into this setting.

Example use case:

I want to display a game on my TV, when connecting it with my android phone, but don't want to run it on the phone screen. It would be nice, if it would start like Samsung's DeX directly on the TV. Or any other app like video surveillance or a chrome website.

In the next step I want to try using andronix+termux+vnc to get ubuntu on my TV screen while using my phone as android device.

Thanks for your ideas and inputs.

Kind regards,

Launemax

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] fil.lujan:
I just got my s23 ultra. The vram was turned on to 8gb. Is that needed? Should I keep it going? I have the 512gb model with 12gb of ram already.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elementXI:
I also own an S23 Ultra. Where did you find the VRAM info?

Mind that VRAM stands for Virtual RAM and should be the RAM available for your GPU, not the overall RAM of your device.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] aureum:
He means RAM plus...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] fil.lujan:
Thanks all, I disabled it, I just wasn't sure why it was on by default. 12Gb will be plenty for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elementXI:
Never said it was dedicated to the GPU. I said it was "the RAM available for your GPU".

Thanks, @aureum.

In that case, it means that a defined amount the device's storage, which by default comes at 8GB, of "RAM Plus" which by default is 8GB, in support of the actual RAM.

@fil.lujan I suggest you don't disable the RAM Plus option. Leave it on at 8GB. It just takes 8GB from your storage and should be pretty unsignificant on the 512GB variant.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] aureum:
RAM plus is working as swap on windows, when you reach max RAM it should goes to RAM plus... However i read that ram plus is not for actual processing, only hibernate the apps for faster reloading them to RAM when needed, Some users od 22u point that disabling ram plus speed up the device I try it on my 23u and did not see any improvement when disabled so i left it at 8GB.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Jaxom84:
Considering how the SoC on this smartphone is already a beast, I don't see how it would be that impactful (in term of raw numbers). 😅

But 12GB RAM is already enough for most users, topping to 12+8GB seems a little overkill.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hoss_n2:
UFS 4.0 is equivlant to Lpddr4 speed but allitle slower

And Ram plus aka V Ram will only be used when you have allot of apps open in back ground to prevent app restarts so it doesn't need to be as fast as the actual ram
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] EtherealRemnant:
It's worth shutting it off and seeing if it has any performance impact. Previous phones all suffered noticeable penalties and honestly with 12GB, it's not needed.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elementXI:
Well, I'd agree with you for older devices. Thought, the S23 Ultra is packed with high-performance UFS 4.0 storage. At worst, there would be the slightest performance impact (if none at all). Hence, I believe this time the pros are higher than the cons when keeping RAM Plus active, from my perspective.
[Touch GSM Accessories] brutalturtle:
Hey all,

Before I start just about every tech blog links to this site for WM info, wonderful :) I want to ask if anybody uses an inexpensive physical folding keyboard for the touch, exactly like the kind people use on palm pdas? You can just stuff it in a messenger bag or something and I really need one. I can't use the touch on screen for typing forum posts when I'm at the library or whatever, but I never carry a laptop because the phone does everything I need. Bluetooth, usb, any type of folding keyboard would be great. Thanks all. I'm sure HP has a bluetooth one but some people have said it didn't work with WM6, only WM5.
[Touch GSM Accessories] di2356:

[Touch GSM Accessories] brutalturtle:

[Touch GSM Accessories] di2356:
yeah. Try to read reviews to find out if its compatible. I bought mine for 50. When downloading drivers the elf wasnt there, and i even contacted support. and they said it doesnt work, and will never work. So i grabbed the driver from the HTC wizard, i dont know why, it worked.

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] elementXI:
I got mine installed at a physical Samsung Experience Store. They used some machinery to perfectly fit the protector on the device. No such issue whatsoever. For all I know, you shouldn’t have any issues with the fingerprint scanner when using thin film-based screen protectors. Some tempered glass screen protectors, especially ones with UV glue may cause problems.

Glass ones have this issue(including Whitestone Dome if not applied really really well) and it's nothing new. Samsung's official plastic one is what I like.
