SP demo video - Xperia SP Themes and Apps

When I was deleting some bloatware from my SP I found the demo video on system/etc/product/content. I think it's supposed to run in a continuous loop. (The .xml says something about 24 minutes at a time)
Can be downloaded from here (13mb) http://www.mediafire.com/?gc18j2vdam1fbyb

open file failed

First off I will start off that I am new but I did try searching this forum and google as well. Everytime I download something either from a torrent or something from the internet, it says open file failed. Here recently i was tring to download some movies and I tried downloading bit torrent but I cant even open up the bit torrent to help me download other things. Has anyone ran into this yet?
open file failed could mean several things.
First, it could mean you dont have an application installed that is taking control of that filetype, the prime has no idea what applicaiton to open that file with.
The second is the file is corrupted and unreadable
Third it could be in use by something else and read protected
It could be several other things but unfortunately you have given us very little to go on.
What files specifically are you trying to open? .torrent files would need a torrent downloader capable of opening these files. Movies should easially open with the stock video player or MX player is what i use. If you are trying to install a .exe file you need to do some reading on differences between android and windows.
Hopefully this helps.

Problem with camera

Hello all! :victory:
Until now, the problems with the camera. Writes "Unknown error" and everything on it. What I've tried:
1. Formatted the memory card and ran the camera - 0 Effect
2. Folder of photos renamed to exclude tables in your gallery
3. Flash 2.1 and to follow the instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12061644 , the program copies all the files on the sdcard, then as I understand it fills them somewhere, and then writes the device: not found, many many lines, the phone restarts and the camera icon does not appear in the download mode.
4. Flash 1.6. camera works without mistakes (2.1 almost no mistakes, yet there are such errors, we have to restart the phone)
5. To the point decided to install ADB, thought due to the fact that it is not - will not install.
6. Disassemble the unit disconnects the camera and connected - the effect of zero
7. Blocked the bootloader by hand and updated through SEUS Pro, also for 0
+
8. I copy files manually and run init.es209ra.rc. - don't working =(
But there is a joke - a third-party application photographs, but does not remove. Yesterday needed a short video ... epic. Help please) has long been tormented with it, since 2012. The new module is not offered, it is necessary to finish off the old, if he does not come out - then buy, where to go...

[Q] [Help] Cannot play video on web pages (only if is from youtube)

Every time I try to play a video inserted in a web page (as the video posted in facebook when accessed form web browser), it appears an error message "this video cannot be played".
- In the facebook stock app, when clicking on video, a messaje appears: "The requested page does not exists"
- I can play the video only if it it comes from youtube
- I cannot install flash player for android ICS (my system is Jelly bean 4.2, but it shouldn't care), I get a parse error. I also have tried to install it from a folder different from the download folder, but without success. I have read in the forums that if I copy the apk to another folder (e.g. mnt/odb) and try to install from it, I will succeed, but those folders are banned for writing, so I couldn't copy on it.
- When I press and hold the video, the only options available are "copy image, save as background, and so on"
- I have installed MX player and Vplayer, hoping that when i open the video I'd be prompted to choose among the players installed, but, it always opens it with the stock player.
- I have accessed the pages in the mobil and desktop mode, but without success. In desktop mode I was told to update the flash player to play the video (I cannot install flash player)
- I have tried photon browser (it includes flash player), I could install it externally, but it behaves in a strange manner: it is not compatible with my device,
- I also tried boat browser, lighting browser (it can activate/deactivate flash player, but it is not installed in my phone), puffin is tricky (not available all day long) so i didnt tried it, firefox crashes after using it shortly.
My system: generic chinese smartphone (ALPS mini S4), android 4.2, 256 mb ram,118 flash ROM, SD card 4GB, CPU cortex A9 single core
The phone performance is pretty well for an unbranded phone.

[Q] My Guophone I9600 android 4.2.1 is fully bricked. can someone help me, please?

Hello,
I am contacting you to see if someone can help me.
I have a Chinese phone. It is a Guophone i9600, MT6589 CPU quad core 1.2 GHz with 1 GB RAM.
This week it began to continuously display messages “memory full” and it told me to uninstall applications. I looked in settings options and it really showed internal memory was fully occupied ... when it wasn't true. There aren’t no applications installed nor data (including whatsapp app).
I restored the phone to factory defaults and it worked well. Now there was a lot of internal free space. After this, I installed lnk2sd app and I started uninstall applications that came with me smartphone ... but the phone has been bricked.
When I turn it on, it hangs in the original logo GUOPHONE. I don’t have any backup.
My laptop doesn’t recognize it. I have downloaded MT65xx drivers and when I try to connect the smartphone, it tells me not receive reply from the peer (I guess it will be smartphone). Therefore, I can’t use all that solutions that need to connect mi smartphone to my laptop (flash tool, CWM, TWRP, ROM manager ...). I think the only solution is to load a ROM file in ZIP format from the factory recovery menu.
I searched ROMS and I only found one in needrom.com (for Guophone I9602 (I guess you can be the same as mine, i9600)). I've downloaded it from a web page link and a mirror link, and one is a single file with img extension and the other one is a .rar. I have unzipped it and it has a few files with extension tar and img. I've tried everything, zip them, unzip them, renamed file extension... and nothing have worked.
I have also tried to generate a zip with the two img file (I think they're called recovery and boot) as someone said in some websites and it didn’t work. They said I have to include a META_INF folder, but I have no idea where to get it.
I have even located the manufacturer's website, I sent them an e-mail to ask them smartphone`s ROM zip file and they didn’t reply me.
One more thing, I bought two identical phones, one for a friend and one for us. Is there any way to get from me friend’s smartphone a file from ROM ZIP file to use it in our smatphone from recovery menu?
From my friend's phone I have downloaded (in "backup user data" option from original recovery menu) a file with backup extension. But when I try to restore it in me phone, it shows me a checksum error.
Thanks in advance. Excuse my poor English, please.
Best regards

UP920 Looking for install logs / unwanted app keeps getting reinstalled

Hi!
I recently got an android 4.4.2 phone ( "uhappy up920" ) and I can't find any logs or any way to see WTF is going on. An application that wasn't originally included ( "Maxthon Cloud Browser" ) keeps getting reinstalled and I can't figure out how / why.
( Phone isn't / probably can't be rooted )
Any hints?
edit:
- the unwanted "maxthon cloud browser 4.1.4.2000" is an obsolete version that does not show up in play store or in f-mod when it's installed.
- "Avira" and "App install tracker" both show when it's getting installed, but offer no hints on how to find out why/how it is installed
- Sometimes it gets reinstalled only a few minutes after I remove it, sometimes it takes a few hours.
- After uninstalling the unwanted Browser, I can't locate any traces of it in the part of the file system I can access with an unrooted adb connection
- Can't find any connections to suspicious sources from the phone in my router's iptables logs either (there are no SIM cars in the phone) - then again, that's sort of hard since I don't know what to look for
- Kernel is 3.4.67, build date Mon Mar 2 12:35:55 CST 2015 - which probably leaves me with no working exploits for easy privilege escalation?
- Fastboot + the bootloader unlock function etc seem to be intentionally broken and it almost looks like I'm the only person in the world using this phone so, no idea how to get around that + more access to stuff
The only way I know how to get rid of "Maxthon Cloud Browser" and whatever/whoever keeps reinstalling it would be with a hammer, so any alternative suggestions are appreciated!
Found an installation file in a download directory under the name "com.mx.browser.mtk4.1.4.2000.apk" (no idea how I missed that earlier)
Deleting that wasn't enough to stop the browser from being reinstalled, so I copied + renamed a random mp3 (cut to have the same size with dd) to replace the file. Since then, it has not been reinstalled.
I've been waiting for the file to be replaced or at least for error messages concerning the "corrupted executable" to pop up somewhere and give away which service was the culprit, but so far there were none. So I'd guess whatever installed the browser is rather quiet and rather sloppily coded :/
