Guys,
Apologies in having to ask such a simple question but I can not find an answer elsewhere.....
I have never owned a Sony phone but am loving the idea of a bit of waterproofing and a dedicated camera button.
However, I do have an issue which is so basic I simply can not find an answer....
Presently I own a Galaxy S4 and like all the other Galaxy S models, to turn on the phone from sleep you simply press the Home Button.
In fact with the S4 there are a number of ways to wake up the screen:-
1. Press the Power button.
2. Press the Home button.
3. Use Voice wake command.
4. Use the Samsung Flip-Case which when opened turns on the screen (which I already own).
I can even wave my hand over the screen to activate important information.
What I am trying to ascertain is simply this ~ is the only method of waking the screen on the Z1 done by pressing the Power button on the side of the phone?
If this is true I just know it is going to be a big issue for me.
Having had the last few years with a simple wake up to then go back to a Power button on the side of the phone will not be pleasant.
I am otherwise looking forward to purchasing a SIM Free Z1 to go with my SIM Free S4.
Thanks in advance

Sounds like you're making a big deal out of nothing. I mean... How hard is it to press the big beautiful Sony On/Off/Lock button really ?

Maybe I am but I'm not looking for judgement, simply the different ways in turning it on.
Clearly by your response you only have the one option.

Maybe if there is some app which allows you to wake up the phone by removing the flip cover. That could only be an option.

The side power button is in a great position. I've had 30 mins with the phone. I think you would be fine. But there doesn't seem another way.
I will have phone again tomorrow and will check in settings. The Z Tablet had a double tap screen to turn on which was great.
Anything else let me know.

Hi Gavin,
Thanks for that snipet of information on the double-tap from the Z Tablet, it brings a glimmer of hope.
Listening to what both the other guys have been saying and your comment on the power button located decently it is giving me confidence.
As you yourself have the S4 and other Galaxy smartphones I am sure you understand where my queries were coming from.
In my busy schedule at work where hands and time are at a premium I do find it extremely easy and comfortable in not having to pick up the S4 to switch on the phone. I can keep one hand on my surgical instruments with the other to slide over to the Home button to power the screen.
Most of my work is done this way, I don't really wiant to have to resort to picking the phone up each time just to check something over.
Any further info you can provide will be greatly received.
I'm also pleased you are looking further yourself into the Z1. I know we have talked about it at lengths before and here we are again both at the same manufacturer.
Mike

The Sony magnetic dock might be the answer to your problem. Button on top edge. Easy to touch on and viewing angle should be excellent.

Umm what?? You chatting on Skype while in surgery? :laugh:. But anyways, I'm glad you found a solution. I'm getting the Z1 aswell. But I'm waiting for the first few batches to go first. I never buy one of the first ones .

I know i will get flamed for this and the thread will probably be closed but i have searched google asked in 3 diffrent forums and have found nothing that worked, and the last thing i could thing of was to ask on xda. It wouldn't be that big of deal but i was scammed on ebay when selling a phone and i cannot lose another one or i will be using a razr untill christmas. (Im 14 and have no income)
I bought it about a week ago, jailbroken and have had no problems untill i got in to chicago yesterday and was using the 3g. While i would be on the internet it would randomly lose service so i would go in to the settings and turn the connections off and then back on so it they would trun back on. but it would freeze on the settings screen so i would hold the sleep/wake and home button to reset it, that worked 3 times but it did it once again and when i tried to reset it it would just hang on the bootup screen with a little loading symbol in the middle of the screen and would turn it self off and on. I have tried to restore it but itunes will not recognize it. I know it is not bricked becasue i was doing nothing that could have of bricked it, but does anyone know how to restore without a computer or anything that might work?
Thanks guys

I was jk. It was a joke
Now don't flame at me thinking that I'm a fan boy. Trust me. I HATE the iPhone. Apple's other products I'm alright with but I would not use an iPhone if anyone paid me. Here's what you gotta do mate. I do this all the time because generally people who have the iPhone have no clue about the hardware. (I'm telling yah, get sumthin else. The iPhone is a waste of good money). Here are the instructions.
1) Head over to http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and select the appropriate model for your device.
2) Make sure this saves with the extension .ipsw on it. NOT .zip
3) Fire up iTunes while your phone is on and plugged in.
4) Next you gotta put the thing into something called DFU Mode
5) Turn your phone off but leave it plugged in.
6) Hold down the power button + the home button for 10 secs
7) After the 10 secs, release the power button but continue holding home for another 10 secs.
8) iTunes is gonna jump up and down now (if you have a mac) and say an iPhone has been detected blah blah blah... whatever.
9) Now if you have a Mac, hold down option while hitting restore. If you have a PC, hold down shift while hitting restore.
10) Now you'll be greeted with a navigation window. Go ahead and select the .ipsw file you downloaded.
11) Hit restore and hope that it works.
Get rid of it if it works. Get a REAL phone lol
Hey Guys, My first time on XDA, there are some issues with the Xperia SP C5302, running the .211 firmware, does anyone have the problem of overheating?! or the phone's battery just darining from like a fifty to a zero in 5 minutes?! please let me know as a reply!! i'm worried.....im sending my phone in to sony right now to inspect my device since i have purchased extended warranty!!

I threw it in Sony's face today...hope i get it back soon.....!! till then i have to manage wirh a Lumia 710!!
What a weird coincidence I have just switched from an 710
To the point
My device does sometimes get a bit hot especially if more than a few wireless connectivity options are on.
This usually results in apps not running properly
If anyone else is having this problem
Accses what they will check first which is the sony factory service menu which can be accessed by putting *#*#7378423#*#* into the dial on the call app. Once in go to service test and go to test battery health this will indicate if there is a fault with the battery
And other options can indicate hardware faults that may cause this.
Other than that it sounds like Sony have had a miss on yours instead of a hit so yeh give it back
Hope this helped

Yea Thanks for the Tip!
BTW i already Sent it into Sony Service Last Saturday! still didn't get any news on my Phone! If i get the option between a Refund and a Replacement, I would definately get a Refund! I would get myself a Nexus 4 or something.
The thing with your phone is (i think) quite normal but mine heats up and the Battery just goes DOWNHILL!!
Hope i get a Solution!! Living off a Lumia 710 again now....thank god i didnt sell it or something! :good:

Your unit may be defective. But if you think you're going to avoid the heating problem with a Nexus 4... mate, I think you are wrong. The Nexus 4 has a well-known problem among users called "throttle" that our Xperia SP doesn't have (at least not mine)
Done!
Hello People,
I got my Phone back from Sony and now it's really cool....but it just warms up a bit when it's GPU is used alot..!!

Hahaha, you're correct.
That is the NFC antenna he removed.
Anyway, back on topic...
If you want your phone to stay cool, you will need to flash a different kernel and ROM.
Only then are you able to tweak your phone so it doesn't overheat again.
Downside is that you lost your warranty. Ah well, if it's broken, buy another phone.
Another thing, "extended warranty" is a joke. Never trust sales people that tell you to buy this extra package.
They will look for any excuse not to pay you if something bad happens to your phone.

Hello I was given a used Galaxy Tab as a gift last year. It didn't come with any Headphones though.
I tried to use the Ones that came with my Galaxy S (GT-I9000), but it doesn't seem to work with it though.
I'm sure there are those here that have both the GT-P1000 (or its nearest relations), and the stock Headset.
If that's the case I'd like to ask you if it were possible to post a picture of the Headset, and the Mic / Answer Button and or Volume +/-.
So I might be better able to have an idea of which version I need to get.
Thanks.

Funny those look almost... (If I do not dare say) like the exact pair I got with my Galaxy S (GT-I9000). It also only has the Answer & Hold Button on it, yet I don't know why these just don't work on my Tab, or my Fathers Tab, (both GT-P1000 GSMs BTW) either.
So I think I can rule out a Hardware fault. Seems unlikely that two different units would develop the exact same fault. And I can reproduce this with his set of i9000 Headphones on his P1000 as well.
The sound is generally monotone I'd guess the Left channel if I had to, and the Button is ignored. as well as the Mic.
I don't think I ever left the Tab in a "Stock" state for more then an Hour over the course that I've had it. But I'd like to ask you anyway just to rule the possibility out. Are you able to still use that Headset after installing a Custom ROM? I can't see how it would affect it, but, lesser things get broken in such ROMs all the time.
To describe my problem as such when I insert those Headphones into my P1000. I get a strong Left Channel monotone output. That make everything sound very tinny. The Call / Hold Button doesn't seem to be working either. Using normal Phones I'm able to enjoy better (i.e. normal sound). But of course it harder to take or make calls from the Tab.
I'm just guessing that somehow that this Headset is somehow incompatible with the Tab (P1000), and I'm trying to track down a pair that are.
But again thanks
I haven't used my tab for phone calls for years.
But the stereo works for music.
I listen to podcast on beyond pod, and music on Neutron player. Both sides of the earphones are equally strong.

Specifically those Phones (as pictured), or just a normal pair of Cans?
'Cause those (i.e. Cans), work just fine for me too. But, I'd like to be able to take a call with out having to take my Tab out, take the call, and have to press the Speakerphone Button TWICE so that I can hear who I am talking to, and to be heard myself. And yes my P1000 has pretty much kicked my Galaxy S to the Curb these days...
Specifically those in the picture.
It is the only pair I have on my bedside table
One of these days I should be trying out the phone/data function again. I have been using my tab purely as a wireless tablet so far.

Thank you very much for this info. Its been most helpful... I guess I really should just run an nandroid backup (to save myself from having to re-download everything again..., and restock this hunk'o junk back to factory gingerbread just to be sure. But as i've seen on another thread (I think it may have been the for OmniROM...), the Audio Out (on the Docking Station), also fails to work under it, and CM11 as well. Which I have also confirmed. It has since only lead me to question if these problems really are somehow related...
In any case I have ordered a pair of hard plastic White Phones that were also reportedly shipped with the P1000
I hope I have a bit more luck with these then I did with my stock Phones that came with my Galaxy S though....
They should be hopefully be here tomorrow, or Friday by the latest, given that Thursday is a National Holiday here in Germany.
So I'll report back with what findings as I can when they come in.
P.s. One last question are you on a Stock ROM or not?
In any case normal three pin Jacks work just fine on my P1000, its only the Headset that came with my Galaxy S (which has Four Pins (as pictured above), that doesn't. It has also been pointed out that you have to press a bit harder to get all Four Pins to connect. Which is kinda true if you weren't aware of the fact. Which I am, so I can't press the jack any deeper then it already is though.
I am on Omni. But prior to this I was on the last of Terenceng cm11. Before that I was on AOKP SGT and way before that I was in overcome.
The earphones has always been working in all those as far as music is concerned.
Regarding docking, I think it is an entirely different issue. The audio goes via the many pin connectors.

Again thank you very much for taking your time to respond. Its greatly appreciated!
In any case I decided to make a nandroid backup and restock.... Just to be sure.
And, I would like to state that I got this Tablet used as a birthday gift from my old man last October, it may have had stock Phones originally, but I never saw 'em. I've been trying to get it to work with my Galaxy S Phones, but these do not seem to work, even if I'm currently at the moment in a pure Samsung stock, and not rooted state.
I can only surmise that the Phones that came with the Galaxy S (GT-I9000), are somehow incompatible with the P1000. Which is on the whole odd given that they look just like the Ones in your Picture. I'm gonna guess its how the hold button part is wired up that makes it just different enough not to work. So I'll just have to wait and, see if those White Ones will somehow work better once the get here.
I also tried the Dock again as more of a goof then anything else, and Sound as well as HDMI-Out presumably works as well durr....
So thankfully I think I can rule out some kind of Software Bug as the cause of this. I just wish I knew the part number of your Headset so i could re-order it either from Samsung, or off Fleebay. As I much prefer those kind to the harder plastic White Ones. But, at this point I'd be happier if they just worked!

Thank you very much for this info. Its been most helpful... I guess I really should just run an nandroid backup (to save myself from having to re-download everything again..., and restock this hunk'o junk back to factory gingerbread just to be sure. But as i've seen on another thread (I think it may have been the for OmniROM...), the Audio Out (on the Docking Station), also fails to work under it, and CM11 as well. Which I have also confirmed. It has since only lead me to question if these problems really are somehow related...
In any case I have ordered a pair of hard plastic White Phones that were also reportedly shipped with the P1000
I hope I have a bit more luck with these then I did with my stock Phones that came with my Galaxy S though....
They should be hopefully be here tomorrow, or Friday by the latest, given that Thursday is a National Holiday here in Germany.
So I'll report back with what findings as I can when they come in.

As I had promised to do I shall write a quick review of the above Headset Model Number EHS61ASFWE(GH-59-11129H) F* (For the Galaxy Tab GT-P1000)... First off these unlike my Stock Phones that came with my Galaxy S (GT-I9000) DO INDEED WORK!! on my GT-P1000. alas their is always a "catch" though. This "Catch" it seems to only Work in Stock ROMs (As being currently tested on my GT-P1000 which has been re-stocked back to Gingerbread v2.3.3.
I have not tested CM10... (From 20130203), the only "Decent ROM" I know of against this "Headset" yet, but although Stereo out, and the Mic seem to be working in OmniROM the latest build (As of this Writing...), the Call & Hold Button is totally being ignored as if it weren't there. In a totally Stock Samsung ROM though they do work....
I'll try some other ROMs first with CM-11 SGT7 ROM (as I'm in love with KitKat at the Moment. If that fails... (As it likely will... I'll fall back on Jelly Bean and, hope that does the trick....)
*EDIT' I tried these on the most recent CM11 SGT7 -- [ROM]SGT7 CM11.0 UNOFFICIAL [4.4.2][P1/L/N][Kernel 3.0.x][2014-05-25] The Button works well here as a Play / Pause Button for Music. I can even Take incoming Calls by just pressing the Button. Though I can NOT seem to hang-up on calls though. Pressing the Button only seems to mute the Mic. on my end. I'm gonna post a bug report about this in the
[ROM][4.4.2] OmniROM Official Nightlies for p1ln, that the the Headset isn't working as expected under that ROM. Hopefully someone can fix it.
*FYI I was able to find these on Fleabay for 'round 5€'s if anyone else is in need of such a Headset. I'd have preferred the "Black In Ear" style myself. But I have no Model / Order Number upon which to work with. And these Headsets are NOT the same, as these, as wouldn't ya know it DO NOT work on the Galaxy S either.
Those headphones works for the p1l?

Yes the Ones I Pictured and named... EHS61ASFWE(GH59-11129H) F** work on stock Samsung Firmware!!*
I've noticed that these, and other "P1" (Wired) Headphones have White Bands where as the Phones that came with my Galaxy S (GT-I9000) have Black Bands. What I don't know, or can be sure of is if this ... Color Code, means anything. But these Phones such as they are DO NOT work on my Galaxy S (GT-I9000), in the exact same way as the Phones from that Phone DO NOT work on my Tablet GT-P1000.
Problem is I've just made the jump to a Bluetooth Headphone, and now my biggest complaint is on how to route System Alerts, and Ringtones to the Bluetooth Phones, without being channeled though the internal Speaker(s). (Come on Google FIX THIS!)
* As it is these Phones work as expected on the Stock ROMs. Call & Hang up, Play & Pause.
They do NOT work at all on the OmniROM.... Bar the Stereo out, which continues to work. But the Button is totally ignored.
On [ROM]SGT7 CM11.0 UNOFFICIAL [4.4.2][P1/L/N][Kernel 3.0.x] The Button is working for Play / Pause, and though you can take calls with it, it seems that pressing the Button again only mutes the Mic., and does NOT actually hang up the Call.
Its worth noting that YMMV, depending on which flavor of the P1 you have, and which ROM you find yourself on. But, if they work on Stock... (Which these do!), then they should work for most ROMs as well.
** You can find these on Fleabay by searching for EHS61ASFWE they generally go for ~5€ new.
Thx a lot! :thumbup:

I believe its the only way until coc manage its resolution scaling differently. And even then...on android 5.0 to 5.1 they display differently. Looks better standard dpi on 5.1 than it did before
Damn my s2 is late version and I was reading they don't have root for it yet
Sent from my SM-T817T using Tapatalk
Yeah, resolution is a little messed up. But my main thing is the screen is way too sensitive.... when farming, trying to drop multiple troops at a time just makes the whole thing zoom in... it's not even playable because the screen touch is way too sensitive... it's obviously more than capable of running Clash.. I just don't know how to reduce the sensitivity... maybe get a plastic screen cover or something....
Ive heard people say that aswell i dont seem to have that problem as much my thing is it looks soooo bad now im leasing a tablet that i dont even use basically cuz of how horrible it looks i usually just play on the phone and until they come ojt with lte version root i dont really have any options
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk
Ive had the same problem. Hoping for a solution soon but there is a work around. If you reboot your tablet and start COC it will properly scale in full resolution and it looks insane on this tablet (i have the 9.7). Sometimes you have to reboot more than once but usually once will do it. As long as you don't kill the app the proper resolution will stick. If you kill it in task manager or hit the back button until you get the 'Exit Clash' prompt it will revert to low rez the next time you launch it. Every now and then (seems like once a week or so for me) it will randomly revert back anyway. So weird. Then you reboot and you're good again. FYI switching users on the tablet (multi profile) will break this which really sucks for me cause i have multiple clash accounts. Anyway this solution has kept me at bay. Hope it helps others.

Hi. Do you have touch screen sensitivity issue where you think you have selected a troop but the touch does not get registered on tab s2 8.0? Tried hard reset, still no luck.
Hi, fierce Galaxy Note 9 owners !
Having this phone for less than a month now, in replacement to my Note 5, I'd like to know if any of you experienced some regressions : which functionalities have disappeared from you previous Galaxy Note phone, and what are the workarounds you found ?
To quickly begin by my experience, some regressions I've found :
- Loss of the ability to easily pick up the calls by voice (you have now to pass through Bixby, only in English)
- Loss of the ability to set timeout duration for lockscreen, after the phone have been woke up without being unlocked
- Loss of the ability to span a background image on multiple spaces
Did you experience any other regressions ?
I wish I can add anything here but I was coming from Note 4.
-no removable battery
-no IR blaster
-durable design
Didn't see any reason to move little steps and spend money in between Notes.
I dont like Bixby. It is redundant. The interaction is very slow.

Regressions from my limited exposure to this Note9:
-I used to have lag, now I don't. Maybe if I open 45 apps at once and put on power saving mode, I can recreate the lag?
-I used to take pictures of my kids with my phone, which resulted in them not smiling because they saw a camera in their face. Now that I'm using my s-pen with Bluetooth, I can surreptitiously snap photos in the moment. Now my kids look natural and are smiling. How do I fix this and get back to straight-faced stares?
-My battery used to die early and allowed me to remove my phone from my person and let it charge. This kept me from being connected to social media 24/7. Now I have no way to escape it because the battery lasts all day! HOW DO I FIX THIS??
-I used to be able to subtlely take out my phone and make a call or text without anyone caring. I'm an introvert, so this was great. Now, everyone wants to know where I got my phone, how I got such an amazing-looking color, etc. It's very uncomfortable. No fix in sight!
-Used to be able to have an excuse to delete photos because I ran out of space and was forced to analyze which photos were really necessary. The one I accidentally took of my feet? Probably can delete... NOW, there's no way I'll EVER run out of space and I'll have those stupid photos clogging up my phone forever! VERY FRUSTRATING!

Fair enough :laugh:
Though, I didn't mean here to point out the ameliorations over previous Note versions : all the threads in XDA and myself having bought a Note 9 show them enough.
However, when posting these (software) regressions, I'm hoping that some might be corrected in next firmware updates.

It's not this timeout I was thinking of.
I was convinced that the re-lock time just after the screen wakes up was parametrizable. I was wrong.

Try Pulse or Textra. Both are way better anyway.
There is no more simple "swipe" to unlock from lockscreen. So instead I use the smart lock feature, which is not very smart. It works about half the time. Not only that, I really NEED the simple swipe to lock. I WANT my phone to not be able to be opened up accidentally in my pocket (or other places) but I don't want to use a password, PIN or other actual LOCKING function. Just a simple swipe - does everything I need without the hassle of a more complicated security lock, which is not nearly as easy to unlock as swipe to unlock... I know I am not the only one who dislikes that they took away this feature. If you make it "swipe to unlock" on the Note 9, it deletes all of your biometric information. So in other words, you can't use your fingerprint to unlock you banking app unless you have password or PIN lock on you lockscreen. Stupid to make it this way Samsung. My Note 8 has swipe to unlock and I get to keep my biometric data.
