    Thread [Q] Sony PC Companion? Brick?

    I contacted Sony because my phone has been having the battery bug/problem (shuts off randomly). They instructed me to download and use the Sony Companion Tool and run the Repair My Phone procedure. I have already reverted back to stock with flashboot but I still have a locked bootloader (never...

    Where did you download a 4.3 stable release build? When I follow the "stable" rom build link, I only get the 4.2 RC-1 build that was released in July. I was only able to find http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2508281 but that's for the Z (togari); not ZL (odin)

    Post [Q][Discussion] Justifying Android Tablet vs Windows

    Care to elaborate? Metro UI is very functional on a tablet and handles multitasking well. If you're referring to legacy x86 programs, well that may be a point of contention, but having the option for said programs is better than not having them at all. The digitizer on the Venue Pro 8 is also...

    First of, I don't mean to start any fanboy arguments or a flame war. I want this is be an objective discussion.

    I was browsing around and saw this thread. Good timing too! I have been thinking a lot about Firefox OS and how it may be the best hope at open source seeing as how Google is slowly taking backing away from open sourcing and making things rely on their closed APIs. Anyway, I've given it some...

    If you're on stock, you need to flashboot the boot.img from the ROM zip using ADB After that, boot into bootloader and factory reset, wipe all cache dalvik, etc. Then flash the ROM (make sure to have it on the root of your sd before the boot.img flash, as the usb connection from CWM was wonky...

    Quick question regarding the camera. I read somewhere that Sony and CM worked together on allowing some stock camera firmware features (not all) and there were more controls like changing ISO, etc. I don't see any option to change ISO in the included camera, only on Focal. Is this where the...

    Prior to this ROM I was able to connect to LTE. I'm thinking it might be signal related now. I forced it to LTE as you suggested and was able to get 1 bar. When I don't force it and leave it at LTE/GSM/WCDMA, it's on H and sometimes on DC (I assumed DC is H+ ?). Interestingly when it was on LTE...

    I can attest to this rom being a good daily driver. The only change I suggest you make is remove the aosp settings apk and add the stock sense settings. This will allow you to update the profile, prl, and toggle the fast power boot on/off. It's much better, although not as nice looking as the...

    I love the support for this device but I agree with Scott. It'd be wonderful if people started making the switch to the Evo LTE, the lack of support there is discouraging. Jellybean for the OG but no Jellybean for the LTE, something isn't right with that.

    The differences are mostly superficial aside from the sd card slot and kickstand that do add utility. The bloatware can always be removed after rooting.

    They claim that you can remove, wash, and reuse them. That's quite interesting. Also, how much were they at the Sprint store and how bad is the pixelation? Is much clarity lost or is it mostly unnoticed?
