Xperia Made for Bond Spectre Edition



I started a thread by mistake in The Z5 Premium section for the Spectre Edition in September thinking that would be the Bond phone. I am a Bond fan and collector and have used the previous Bond phones. K800 from Casino Royale, C902 from Quantum of Solace and the Xperia T from Skyfall. Each had lots of Bond content including videos, ringtone, notification tone, wallpapers, themes and boot animations. The Xperia Z5 for Spectre seems to have minimal content with the best extra being the previously leaked theme. The device comes with a key chain in a Spectre box. One static wallpaper and one theme are available through Xperia Lounge. A few widely available videos and the Made for Bond advert are also available. Looks like a fairly weak effort to provide the specialized content as promised and falls well short of the previous Bond extras on the devices mentioned above.

For those of you that have the Spectre Edition, is this all that is available?

Made a mistake. Need some help.



Not sure if there is a way out but this is my situation. I am on an ATT&T M8. Was going to flash a new rom. Was on exodus. so I did a full wipe in twrp. I then flashed firmware 3.42.502.1. But after I flashed I forgot to flash the custom recovery again. So when I tried to reboot to recovery I was left with a red triangle exclamation point. So now I have nothing but a stock recovery and I can't get into my phone using adb. I tried flashing a rom stored on my sd card but that didn't work. Do I have a way out of the mess I created for myself? Thanks .

is there a way to update my phone without loosing root or changes made with root



hello i rooted my device with zv7 sprint ,and replaced the carrier files because i wanted to unlock it to use it with gsm carriers.

i would like to know if there is a way to update the phone without loosing the changes i realized ,i could loose the root access since i don't need it anymore.
also i received yesterday one pop up message that my phone was uicc unlocked (what does it means)??



So, I made a mistake and my phone doesn't boot now.....



so lads, I was bored and I went on to see the feats of the stock recovery. So I followed the "Asus Zenfone 2 | Resources all in one thread" guide and entered recovery

As I entered recovery, even though I'm rooted it worked without "fastboot erase cache" command. There I tried to "WIPE CACHE PARTITION" just to try it out, I left my phone there and about 10mins later it was still stuck on "erasing /cache" (*since in my every phone I've ever tried this was a matter of minute or two to perform the action"

I stupidly thought it was stuck, so force rebooted my phone and since then, I see the ASUS Boot screen and then I get the dead droid/error sceeen

How do I fix this, guys? Can I salvage my data?

Screen goes black as soon as call is made



Phone info: LG G3, model D852

ROM: fresh install of XenonHD, 09-28-15 build for the D852
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...table-t3167293

ROM was installed fresh: wiped Dalvik, cache, system, data. Flashed ROM via TWRP, then TKGapps (09-27 release, 'stock' package), first boot took a while as expected, but went without issue. Installed a few 'normal' apps (no xposed or anything like that), and used Titanium backup to forcibly uninstall AdAway and Messenger.

PROBLEM:
Use the stock dialler to make a phone call to an existing contact. As soon as I hit the phone icon on the contact, the call initiates, and the screen goes black immediately. I can hear the call connecting, but it is extremely hard/impossible to turn the screen on: tapping the screen, clicking the power button, shaking the phone all fail to turn the screen on. If any of this does get the screen to turn on, it just flashes very briefly (showing the call in progress) and then goes black again. Once the call wraps up, the screen is immediately responsive once again.

Has anyone else have ever run into such a problem?! And of course, any suggestions on potential fixes or troubleshooting would be appreciated.

Thank you.

[App][4.1+] Saving Made Simple - Save money for anything easily



Hi all,
Just did a material design update to my app Saving Made Simple and added a ton of features. This app can be used however you want, it's got the features you need to just track goals and payments to those goals, or you could also track expenses which impact your goals. Heck, you could use the Cash Flow (which is for unallocated cash, so cash you haven't put in a goal yet) to monitor all of your savings and expenses easily, letting you know exactly how much free cash you have.

I have used this app to save for various vacations, a new Android phone (love my S6) and more.

Check it out now!
