No more vibrating on phone connected? - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hi,
My last phone was HTC inspire 4g (AT&T version of DHD). I flashed CM7.3 on it and was not sure if this is the feature added by CM team or not.
Basically, when I dialed any number, upon phone connected, it will vibrate to remind me. I thought this was a great feature, but I can't seem to find this option on my new Xperia T(L).
Anyone has any insight?

This is a CM feature as was brought to my SGSII as well and is now a popular addition to all AOSP/CM10 derivatives for the phone.

Thank you for the clarification. Hopefully official ROM will include this feature someday.

Has anyone ever succesfully used the update feature?

Hello all.
I have a brief question. Under the settings menu in our sgs, there is an option to update etc. Has it ever worked with any update? For example, when the next update is available is it worth bothering to check through that instead of kies, or does it not work?
Thanks

Always no update available

No. It's just there for decorative purpose. Seriously.
Has it been included on any stable firmwares yet though?
I have used it twice on my nexus one and updated. Has never done anything on galaxy s. I think it may be a Google phone feature. Eg nexus one, nexus s.

New way to remove password or pin lock permanently !!

I have tested on my zl, but sure that it will work on z also.
hey everyone, I found a way to bypass the lock screen and remove the password/ pin from the settings.
well, this i got to know accidently when i was trying to run a code on the phone.
hile i was searching on a sonymobile website, there came a code *#*#73556673#*#* to run the retail demo, after running the demo, my locked phone removed the pin and shown swipe unlock screen.
then i again locked it with password and then run the code from the locked screen through emergency calling number. after that i pressed the home button 2 times and my locked screen changed from password to swipe screen unlock.
NOTE that after pressing this code retail demo starts, and to stop that demo you have to run the code again....... if you want more help, then ask......
so this is easy way to unlock the Xperia zl, it must also work on Xperia z, if you have Z, then please share your views.
I think it is the best way to unlock the phone because it removes the password from settings. old trick was that to access the service menu through emergency number.........
my aim towards posting this trick was to show and tell SONY that they should look upon the security issues and improve the security for the upcoming updated of 4.2..........
please hit thanks if anybody was helped from this post

You need titanium backup to remove it. Just scroll through the list I forgot what it is called exactly, something demo, might be retail demo.

What do you expect? This thread is 8 months old.
The Z was still running Android 4.1 then. Sony fix this type of bug/exploit in new firmware updates.

Yes, it will work for those that stay on old firmware, though I doubt 20% of XDA members with an Xperia Z are on 4.1.2, which is 3 major Android versions out of date.
I was simply responding to someone complaining it didn't work and explaining why.

Will the Google edition be the same hardware configuration?

The reason I ask is because although I love sense 5 when key lime pie is realeased I am going to want to try it. If the Google edition is the same hardware then wouldn't we be able to flash the Google version on our phones?
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
Without a port in short no...because that version will most likely be gsm only and not sprint so it will need to be tweaked. BUT...the Google edtion will speed up things like cyanogenmod a lot!

Well that's good but I know with the evo 4g ltd there was always issues with the Mic sound on cm10. Like people could never understand what I was saying. One person even thought my phone was being tapped because it sounded like there was another phone on the line lol. Has that been an issue with this phone? I just got it last week so I haven't gotten a chance to flash it.

question about roms

I have a Tab 7 (gt-p1000r , rogers 3g) that I cannot for the life of find a stock firmware to go back to, so I am wondering if anyone can tell me is there any roms that I can use that won't brick my device? (I am rooted and superuser is on)
I don't even care if I loose 3g functionality, as this is just a luxury, I only use at home
A at&t rom might work. Both are on the gsm network. I think you can rake a at&t phone into canada and it will work. This might work. Just look into it. The model for a at&t is sgh-i987.
Happy hunting.

Thank you kindly, I will look into it, as mentioned I don't even care if I keep the radio portion of it(texting via sim, I have a nexus 4 so I am ok)
The CM 10 version has full functionality, i've heard. CM 11 still has a few bugs, no mobile data. I'm not sure about kang roms, AOKP, they are similar to CM.

Unable to beam webpages via NFC after update.

Is there anyone that else having issues beaming apps or webpages to other devices via NFC after updating to 4.4.2? I get a transfer error message that says unable to transfer URL via NFC. Sprint and HTC have both said they haven't heard of any known issues... Until I updated the store demo HTC one and showed the repair technician. I guess I'm trying to find out if these are isolated incidents or something that will be a known issue.

Having the same issue here, though I did not test NFC before the 4.4.2 update. I can receive URLs but I can't send them. Sending pictures and videos works though. Running stock Vodafone branded HTC One

It worked on 4.3. On the store demo phone, we had tested it to make sure it worked before the update and verified that it stopped working after. The Sprint tech said he had submitted a trouble ticket. I also reported it to HTC and they are "going to call" me back in 3-5 days. Just curious as to how long before they fix it.

I'll let you know when mine gets fixed as well. Also, do you have any problems with audio in Skype? Just noticed I can't hear anyone since the update, but they can hear me... weird
I tested Skype. Seems ok to me. Then again I had uninstalled it and reinstalled it for something else prior to you saying something about it. Another thing I noticed with this update is that the 4G icon will disappear while on a call. I can still use data while on the call. It's just that before it let me know data was available. Now it was making me think that doing both wasn't an option anymore.

Turns out the Skype thing was because of the other device. As far as I can see, this update brought us only bad things. NFC not fully working, battery life sucks compared to 4.3... Only improvements are easy change of SMS default app and some visual improvements. I want my battery life back!
I don't have a Sprint HTC One, but after the upgrade to kit kat, NFC isn't working for me.

Does it give you an error message or just doesn't work? I'm assuming you have the NFC toggle set to on, right? Can you provide any specific details? Like does it make the sound effect at all? Any indication that it is at least trying to work?

It gives me an error message, NFC is on, and it works because it shows the error message when I touch both phones. It's very laggy, look at my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660552
