Random Screen Select/Brightness/Charging - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I purchased the only 4G model in Brisbane on Thursday. So glad I was talked out of the Galaxy Note!
It's sleek fast, light and all round awesome.
A few little issues...
- It will select a seemingly random spot on the screen and open a program or a link and I am perplexed at what just happened. Sometimes 2 in a row, usually different spots. Is this an issue with the device or just sensitivity to fingerprints/residue?
- Is it possible to modify or add options/settings to the notifications bar? I'd like a brightness slider. I can see no way of quickly changing it.
- I know there are at least 2 high current (2amp) USB charging standards (Samsung, iPhone) and I have dual USB chargers from 'GPS For Less' that work great for my SGS2 and SGT7. I am not convinced however, that they are charging my XZT at full rate.
- I use TouchPal Curve swipe keyboard but I don't seem to be able to make it smaller as I have been able to on my TAB. I have set 'Keyboard size'to smallest and 'Candidate' to small. The full size is great for my single finger typing but way too big for swiping. I also can't find how to turn off unwanted options in the above the keyboard, like MIC and twitter. What am I missing here?

This might make you uncomfortable but turn on the screen and attempt to flex the tablet. See if this triggers touch recognition. (Enable show touches in Developer Options to help show this.) I myself have personal experience with the tablet triggering recognition when that happens.
Alternatively, if you haven't updated the tablet to the latest software version, do so. The shipping firmware versions have a serious touch sensitivity problem and newer versions have fixed it.

I'm sure you know this, but pressing the wrench&screwdriver icon/top clock section of the notification shade will open some quick settings (a WiFi shortcut, brightness slider, etc.), but other than third party apps that offer notification settings toggles, you can't directly customize the notification menu (like on ASUS' customizations of Android).

This is still speculation, but it's said the XPERIA Tablet Z's MicroUSB port has a hard limitation to 500mAh and that you need the SGPDS5 charging cradle to deliver more than that. I do find mine charges in something around 4 hours with said cradle.
I can't help on the keyboard issue. I use the default PObox Japanese XPERIA keyboard.

I enabled 'Show Touches' a couple of days ago to see what it was doing. So, I have just twisted the tablet as suggested, and yes, did get a couple of touches.
Also updated to the latest on Saturday just gone. Now running build 10.1.1.A.1.307 Android 4.1.2. It still does it occasionally. Perhaps not as much. Do I need to call Sony about this?
I downloaded 'Notification Toggle' This does almost exactly what I wanted.Just missing the Brightness slider, but the multi toggle works great.

If the MicroUSB has a hard limitation of 500mAh, how would using a dock increase this? No external device can overcome a hardware limitation.
I should think its more than 500mAh. At that rate it would take well over 12 hours to charge the 6000mAh battery.
I have ordered a USB current/voltage meter so I will do some testing with various chargers and device states and report on this forum.

The dock does not use the USB port to charge the tablet's battery; instead, it uses the charging points located on the lower left side of the tablet. The charging points allow for a higher charging ampere value.

Oh Very cool.
I wonder if there will be other non-Sony devices/attachments that will utilise these. I wonder if I could retro something

I've been using my Galaxy S4 ATT charger with my Tablet Z and it works perfect, my tablet charges very fast, looks like it's using 2A, so maybe the hardware limitation doesn't exist. I've the SGP311.

I must be doing something different as it now seems to be charging at a reasonable rate. The first night, after some hours, it barely charged 20%.

[Q] 180-degree Screen Rotation

Coming from WM6, I find it odd that there's no manual screen rotation options in Android. Odder still, that there's no 180-degree rotation mode.
I have a universal Car Mount from my old phone that I like, mostly because it attaches to the air vents. I find this positioning is better than a conventional windshield mount on my car, and avoids the typical issues with suction cups continuously falling off (or melting into place).
The problem is that the dock blocks the USB charging ports on the corner of the Atrix. I can get around this issue by putting the phone in upside down, however to do so I need to 'flip' the display.
The Motorola Auto-Rotate feature does not support the 180-degree position out of the box. I've found several posts asking about this feature, but no answers except a vague reference to Cyanogen Mod, implying that this will take more than a standard app/widget can do.
So, is it possible to do this on the Atrix now that we have root and deodexing options available? This is my first Android phone, so I'm not yet familiar with its innards.
Alternatively, is it possible to flip the display on a given application, specifically Nav or one of the offline GPS programs?
Ideally, what I'd like to see is:
A Widget or shortcut to manually set and/or toggle screen rotation like what was standard on WM6. Outside of the car dock, this is also useful when using the phone on a desk or bed at odd angles.
Script/Shortcut/Icon that sets a specific rotation and then launches the car dock (or GPS app).
Use Launcher Pro.
Gives you full 360 screen rotation.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
No, unless I'm missing something, it does not.
LauncherPro does allow the home screen to be rotated (which is not what I care about right now), but it does not support rotating it 180-degrees (upside down).
Ahh you're right.
The dock will flip to 180, but the screen stops at 90.
Any ideas?
I don't mind playing with Androids internals (time permitting) if this is possible , but as I said my experience with Android so far is minimal (particularly compared to the xda experts).
According to http://developer.motorola.com/docst...at_runtime__Allow_the_user_to_set_preferences, the only options for application preferences are landscape or portrait. Not sure if this is applicable though.
I've found an old related thread for the G1 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=449688&page=2 added screen rotation to that device. It does note though that not all rotations are implemented, and is probably also talking in the context of 2.1.
Another related thread at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...e-rotations-by-90-but-enable-rotations-by-180 seems to imply that the 180-degree rotation won't work until we get the Android 2.3 update.
The android docs includes a ROTATION_180 definition for the Surface object with a setOrientation method on http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/Surface.html
It appears that CyanogenMod 7 adds this capability: http://nightly.posterous.com/rotate-180
Clearly we're not going to see CM on the Atrix for a while, but is there anyway we can backport this feature into the Atrix, or will this have to wait for the fabled 2.3 update?

VZW version observations

If I try to charge the phone using any one of the myriad of USB cables and wall plugs I have laying around, the G2 goes into "Slow Charging" mode. When I use the cord and plug that came with the phone it charges like it's evidently supposed to. The USB cable is bigger around than my other cable too.
Kinda disappointed that the transparent selection for the on-screen buttons is literally for the buttons and not the background of the buttons which would actually be helpful.
I like having a tabs version of the menu screen option. I got used to the way the S4 menu layout is and the tabs version on the G2 is similar to that. You can toggle back and forth.
Being able to select which toggles are available on the drop down status screen is cool and easy to use.
In terms of the charging.
Most phone chargers that aren't specifically for tablets, or newer phones, are 1A chargers.
The one that comes with the phone is a 1.8A charger.
That being said, I have also noticed that any previous CABLE I have tried, including ones that are for a Nexus 7 or 10 tablet, even when plugged into the OEM charger, say "slow charging mode"
The funny thing is, if I use the OEM cable and plug it into any charger I have, ranging from .5A, to .75A, and 1A, it doesn't say "slow charging mode" even though, technically, it is.

Samsung phones often trigger different modes by putting resisters of different sizes between the pins in the cables. Not sure if that is the case here, but it could be that the cables need to be specially modified for fast charging mode.

I've noticed that when installing the united drivers every time i plug the phone into the computer it loads up backup assistant and then about 30 seconds later the phone is viewable in explorer.
Yes, the transparency for the nav buttons is not really transparent. Can't wait till this gets rooted and unlocked as this phone is going to be awesome with AOSP.

I hope it happens, root is pretty much assured but unlocked bootloader and AOSP aren't, the US versions of the Options G lash their international variant, done even have official Cyanogenmod, which I hope we get.
Overall thumbs up or keep looking?
So it sounds like purchasing a second OEM wall charger should be a priority, one for home and one for work. I could just use the OEM at work and slow charge overnight with my legacy wall chargers.
How about mobile chargers? I just purchased a moto mobile for my GNex, don't feel like dropping more ca$h on a new one.
My local VZW store doesn't have any in stock so I may purchase online just to make sure I keep my unlimited data. Sucks that it won't get here until next week.

The double tap to wake is pure genius. I kept flipping the phone over to wake the device.

The slow charging was a downside that I realized today, as I tried it on the same charger as my Note 2 and it was in slow charging mode. This caused me to have some doubts about charging it in the car without buying a charger from them, hoping a generic USB cable will work.
Overall though I love the phone! I think it's great that the Verizon version has wireless charging.
Double tap to put it to sleep only works on the stock launcher for me. Apex and Nova both override the knock knock.
Knock, Knock to wake works on Nova and double tapping the notification bar will make the phone sleep on Nova as well.
I asked this earlier in the general from and got this reply:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2441027
fix for the "knock, knock" to sleep.
From Verizon's description page (look under Specs/Web [stupid place for it]):
Micro USB 3.0 high–speed charging
So "Slow Charging" would be just like when you were charging your Note or older device. Which is why it is called slow.
Couple things I have noticed so far....
1) the settings screen can change to tabs if you hit the on screen menu button at the bottom.
2) copying mkv files from win8 always crashes something, had to use airdroid
3) you can get rid of the qslide by editting the quick settings, showing the qslide button then tapping it, then remove it.
4) the gps icon seems to always show, no matter what i do.
5) long pressing the home button brings up the task manager

I try to stay away from USB transfer nowadays for devices without an SD card. Go download FTP Server from the Play Store, then FileZilla (or some other FTP client) for your PC and transfer that way. A LOT faster than using the USB Media connection. Both phone and pc must be on the same network.

The quick buttons above the qslide, if you swipe it all the way to the right is an edit. Go in there and check qslide. Then come out, disable the qslide button, then just go back into the edit for the quick buttons and remove the qslide from there too.

LED notification alternatives

I guess will be nice if we discuss how to achieve some kind of notification on our displays without draining the battery. Smartwatch is good way to deal with it, but let's keep to the phone itself. Most wanted feature is to have recurrent notifications. I invested some time in trying some apps and these are my "5 cents":
- Always On Edge- this is the program I prefer to use so far and will explain why. It lights up the edges and could be set to be recurrent. With many settings about almost everything. Just don't forget to save the settings after changing things. It works most of the time, but it's a bit tricky- don't let the system to control it (to stop it)- you can do it from battery management. And from my experience- use the power button to turn off the screen (or just leave it to turn off). Using some additional programs (like JButton and Fluid gestures) activate more secure mode (could be wrong) and prevent the notification blinking. The good is that it's relatively battery friendly.
- LED Blinker Notifications - always working, nice customization. Shows colored circles on the screen in Awlays On Display manner. Can set different color for different app and random position (to avoid burn-in). The bad- spends a lots of power and the battery is going down fast. And is way pricier. I bought it anyway to test it, but probably will stay unused.
- Glimpse Notifications- works (almost) always. The problem is that will either light up your screen (drains battery, because wakes up the CPU) or makes a vibration or a sound. This could be annoying for everyone.
- integrated Always On Screen feature in our phones- works fine, shows icons with the notifications. Nice solution, but spends about 1% battery per hour (on my phone). This is the whole consumption of the phone of course, but I think that this is 1.5-2 times more than regular consumption. It's good solution anyway.
I use the following combination:
- Always On Display with clock + notification icons
- Always On Edge (rainbow crashes around the edges + clock + notifications)
- phone is in DND
- Xiaomi Mi Band 3 vibrates

What is the purpose of DND? Avoiding sounds and turning on the screen?
P.S. In my previous opinion I meant AOD- Always On Display (not Screen ). Sorry for the mistake.

I don't want to hear anything from the phone. Just want to be notified in a visual (AOD + AOE) and haptic (Mi Band 3) way.
I assume screen or display is both fine
Hi
I'm also looking for a solution since I miss the LED so much. I'm currently with Always On Edge, but I'm not happy with it. It drains the battery quite a lot, even when I don't get a lot of notifications.
I had days where the stats do report 90 min cpu including 50 min in background. It's quite unrealistic that it had to blink that long during the whole day.
If somebody has a better alternative (also playing together with the fingerprint unlock), please let me know.
Better to check the mAh that are consumed, than the CPU and the screen time. It's located in Power Consumption Details -> Software and is not so bad. But probably depends on how much time you spend away from your phone. You can use AOD and put the phone with screen down, it will turn off screen until you flip it and see if notifications are available.

I had tried to use ALWAYS ON EDGE (among a few other apps) but no matter what settings I tried, etc. I could not get it to work. That being said, I found another app on the Play Store called ALWAYS ON AMOLED and it works like a CHAMP.
It is super customizable and seems to be very similar to ALWAYS ON EDGE so if you are looking for something like this to use as a visual for notifications then I recommend this app. Just search for ALWAYS ON AMOLED on the Play Store...

I find it unbelievable in this day and age when manufacturers decide to remove a functional Led yet don't replace it with anything half decent for notifications.
You know when you plug in your charger, those green bubbles appear? A notification like that would have been nice.

Palm PVG100 Screen Wake On Plug & Fully Charged

I'm close to having the phone perfect but these two still persist. There is a myriad of old options for Xposed and I was wondering if anyone has had success with any of them? I use the phone for a GPS unit on a cycle with a dynamo hub, so the waking up is annoying.
I've sorted the sound already, so there are two wake up conditions:-
1. power is enabled
2. battery reaches 100%.
Cheers, Andrew

Hi Andrew,
I can't help with Xposed, but I have a suggestion and a side question.
My suggestion : try IpBike (with IpBikeKey to unlock it).
The author of IpBike reads and answers e-mails. He is opened to new features if the idea is good.
If IpBike can't force the screen off (I never tested, as I don't charge my device as I cycle !), he may add the feature.
My question : is the PVG100 ANT+ capable ?
I use a Sony-Ericsson Xperia Active as a cycle computer (powered by IpBike), with ANT+ Speed, Cadence and Heart-rate sensors.
I would like to replace it with a PVG100E/EU, but the ANT directory does not list any Palm device.
Have a nice day !
Cobus.
Probably not, ANT is an extra cost for a manufacturer.
I found an open-source app which works. It's a bit old but still it does the job.
Basically it registers itself as an admin app so it can control the screen, then when a wakeup comes in it turns the screen back off. It's quick enough that the screen doesn't get a chance to come on. No root required.

Have you tried enabling "zen mode?" Zen mode keeps everything on the phone from waking I believe. I have tried it, but got annoyed when the wifi would cut out once I turned my screen off, because it would stop what I was listening to. Not sure exactly what you're looking for, but zen mode might be something to play around with.
To activate zen mode, the easiest way is probably through the app "setedit." Under "system" options, scroll to the bottom and change zen mode from 0 to 1.

[GUIDE] ROG 3 Pass-through Power

Speaking of charging, there are a few other bits worth pointing out. Like the fact that the ROG Phone 3 supports passthrough power. This is great for prolonged gaming sessions since you are not constantly charging your battery up to 100% and pinning it there to its detriment. You are also not generating any excess heat in the power conversion process. The wall adapter is just delivering the amount of power the ROG Phone 3 currently needs for its internals, with the battery at rest and still ready to spring into action as a UPS, of sorts, if something happens to mains power. It's a distinctly PC approach to power management, which makes a lot of sense, especially on a gaming phone.
To do this go to Settings -> Advanced -> Mobile Manger -> Power Master -> Battery Care -> at the Bottom select want you want me i just selected the 90% which is my battery now is 91% so it works it didn't charge the battery, PowerCharger Pass-through directly to the phone. I downloaded "Ampere" apps to confirm see below Screenshot.

A recent update did add this feature. Once you got a game running for which Game Genie is enabled (reminder: YOU decide which apps to enable Game Genie for, and they need not be games), swipe from left edge to bring out its menu, scroll down the icons, and turn on Bypass charging. Outside of enabled games we're probably stuck with charge limits.
EDIT: Oops... 4 months late, but folks, the option is now there. If not, update.
