Would this be possible as the hardware seems pretty similar?
This would let us use VOLTE and Wifi-Calling on the Z2.
I was able to flash the system partition but then the touch screen has a weird mousepad behavior and Wifi / Celular doesn't work.
Any thoughts?
I googled everywhere and could not find a answer.
not exactly possible because tmobile branded Xperias are funny enough slightly different from normal Xperias so it wont work properly at all and not to mention its a Z3
you cant flash a Z3 rom onto a Z2 without modifacation.

I tried it and when I flashed full ftf the phone didn't recognize touches. when I flashed just parts of it, it has the mousepad behaviour like you mentioned

I think if we modify or change the files related to touchscreen, then it would work

I got it to work.
I found a Aroma Rom that it is based on a Z3 rom.
The touch screen now works but still no wifi (bluetooth works), no 3g/lte.

Any updates? I'm interested in this as well. My apartment is a t-mobile deadzone, so enabling wifi calling would be great

Hi guys
As this is a brand new section in xda-developers, we might need to draw the attention of the developers.
In this thread we can centralize all our requests that we have for the developers.
I will start with my requests :
1. Android 2.1
2. Wifi modifications, so the Wifi doesn't disconnect after the phone gets locked
3. change fonts (now words are split in the strangest ways)
4. Live wallpapers (I don't know if this will be possible on such a small screen but it's worth the try)
I hope this will raise interest from some developers.
For me root and kernel with netfilter would be enough. Wifi tether is the only thing i miss atm and it is the only reason the G1 is still not gone.
But PdaNet tethering works, right?
I think the thing we need most is a root, or at least a way of removing Sonys modifications to Android

I've seen people complain that the wifi disconnects when the screen turns off. Is that what you mean? There's actually a setting for that...
Go to Settings > Wireless Controls > Wi-Fi Settings
Press the Menu button
Select Advanced
Select Wi-Fi sleep policy
Voila! Select 'Never', and it'll never sleep. I think. Unless it's bugged, of course! (can't test here, as I've got no wifi)

Hi Spataluk
I indeed meant when the screen turns off and I'm afraid that it's not that it is a software problem. I already found that option and I already selected 'Never'.
So it is bugged and it is a known issue for Android 1.6. Was same problem with the Hero.
But thanks anyway

Yeah just to confirm this does not resolve the wifi turning off - also FixMyWifi crashes so cannot sustain the WIFI during sleep either.
Only option is to disable>re-enable WIFI after device wake-up, otherwise the wifi scanner does not pickup a network.
For me (first foray into Android development) make sipdroid work! It's set in absolute sizes for many things, so not everything shows up on the mini's screen.
Just got done with my build environment, now to get the source, and see what I can do.
root!
Everyone hates these apps that cannot be deleted. Specially the demo-versions, which are useless afterall.
There's apparently root now.
Can anyone confirm it's working with the mini pro?

Exploids method works like a charm.
I just removed the demo games and the manual with the root.
Is it easy for someone to create a *very* basic but functional rom, to get rid of SE's rubbish?
Ah, and a Recovery ROM should be WoW

This is exactly what I came here to say. Netfilter support is about the last thing I need on the phone after having found pretty much everything else I needed. If we get netfilter support, it will be the perfect phone!
I actually got the source code for the netfilter kernel-module for the X10 mini, but I have no idea on how to compile it. If I get it compiled I don't think I would have any problem getting it implemented using insmod via adb, root access and busybox.

Maybe you should ask this question in the right part of the forum.
i guess since we now have root the question is can we copy the rom off the phone safely and then edit it so we no longer have all the sony stuff on it and maybe get cm6 on it
right my request is that we find a developer who can crack the bootloader and give us the android 2.2 update becasue SE never will
Ok so I'm having issues with sending files over Wifi Direct to another S3.
S-Beam works perfectly fine, so I can send an image, video or music to the other person.
File transfers e.g. PDF, Zip etc work fine from the other person's phone to mine
But
When I send files to the other person's phone they do not get a prompt asking them to accept/reject the file and it just sits in limbo not going anywhere.
Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea what might resolve it?
Side note: Sending files over Bluetooth works fine, however this is a lot slower.

Hello,
Are you using a custom ROM / kernel and have you rooted your phone?
I am having the same issue you described with Omega 6 ROM and Siyah kernel, but a friend with a stock un-rooted ROM has no issues.
Thanks
Yes i am .must be something to do with the rom or kernel

apparently not yet ...
it SEEMS to be linked to the radio issues in the custom roms (all).
wifi direct chip runs on the same hardware circuitry?
I have gone back to stock rom and am testing to see if it's the rooting or the custom roms that break it.
Will update you when I have some solid info. :crying:
Well, the verdict is in.
Used the S3 Toolit V2, did insecure boot image + ROOT and wifi direct is still working, after having flashed stock rom.
The fault lies in the custom ROMS.

Mine just sits there too, tried sending files to an s2 and the s2 never prompted to accept the files. I'm using stock but with cf root.

So wifi direct will not work on any custom roms?
I've been reading the other threads, and some are claiming that they have no problems with their wifi direct.
no request on a gs2 to accept the file i want to transfer as well.
even though i am on "stock" LF6 (but rooted)

Omega 11 - works perfectly
Same problem
I also am facing the same problem
I can receive files normally from other s3 and s2 devices but when i try to send, i select the device i want to send to, tick beside it, and when i press done nothing happens
i have tried with a friends s3 and his works fine
i am using the custome rom
Change rom to LG8 (with stock kernel) and it should work. It may be a custom rom but based on LG8 (omega for example).
Working now
I formatted my device and now wifi direct is working

I am having this EXACT same problem! My fiance and I are running the exact same model, and same software (Blazer ROM). I don't know what the problem is, because I did not have this problem with my friends S3. I used wifi direct to send the file for installing blazer rom directly to his phone by changing the extension from .zip to .flac, and because I can still receive files, I have NO clue what is broken or what to do!
Same WiFi Direct issues, but with stock ROM
I'm having similar issues trying to transfer between my rooted stock GS III I9300 and a galaxy tab(P3110) with CM9. The devices seem to be connecting initially but when I try to transfer something it doesn't work. It's actually doesn't mean anything because I don't see myself needing to that a lot(or ever). I'm just playing around. But since I know it doesn't work it bugs me. Kind of a "can't be unseen".
Has anyone encountered an issue with NFC where tapping the checkbox to enable it flashes a checkmark for less than a second and then it disappears, meaning that NFC was not enabled?
I'm rooted and unlocked so I suppose there's a possible relationship there (I hope not, it doesn't seem to make sense for me).
I'm running stock firmware, 32GB Wifi (US).
Edit: needed a reboot. I'm in the process of trying to get Google Wallet running.
Mine doesn't work either, though I'm not entirely bothered but if a patch or simple solution occurs I'll persue it.
I've have no real need for it, but it works on my phone ok. - which is the Sony Xperia Z.
I neither have any idea as to what is causing the fault.

Ok, first you need to install root browser, and then open it, select data, you will see the folder USF, hold the icon, and then rename it to usf1,then ok. AFTER THAT, POWER OFF AND TURN ON AGAIN, FIX THE PROBLEM!

Hello,
I have a problem when using the phone with bluetooth headset.
When I perform a call from the device using the BT headset the other side hears my voice very distorted.
However when I receive a call the other side hear my voice very well.
I tested two different BT headsets and they all have the same problem.
I also tested those BT headsets with Samsung Galaxy S2 and they worked correctly.
Please help me solve this problem.

It does not work with certain network providers. In my country we have 3 cellular providers Pelephone,Cellcom, and Orange. Only Cellcom has a problem.
There is some kind of interference between BT transmission and Cellcom broadcast. My guess it is a HW issue in THL cellular phones.
So the best solution is to switch cellular provider.

I also found this bug in THL W100. This is probably design bug in all THL line of phones.
This phone is designed for Chineese market and I guess there were no problems with Chineese providers. Also they may have skipped some of the tests or limitations to reduce the phone price.
Aparently this is HW issue, so no software can fix it.
The only way to fix it is to switch the provider or give up the phone.

Fixed
16-12-13 SOLVED:
Looks like i found a fix for this, problem is in one of the parameters of the audio speech enhancement settings.
this is what i did :
enter engineer mode through moble uncle tools or gravity mod.
go to hardware testing
select audio
select speech enhancement
change common parameter to BT earphone
change parameter0 to parameter12
change the value to 20488
press back several times
reboot phone and test it
i came to this solution by comparing the differences to my jiayu in witch this was recently solved.
THL W8-16GB
Jiayu G4 Advanced 2GB/32GB
SAMSUNG GALAXY TAB2 7.0
one extra problem
After making a call (I use Lenovo p780) when I'm on 3g, the phone "falls out" the network. It restore the connection in few seconds, but it's annoying. It doesn't happen always, but very frequent
When I change my phone to 2g mod, it works well, but in 3g- the problem is there
any solution?
I doubt it

maybe 3g signal strength is not very good, you can use your SIM card change a phone to try.then you can know the problem is phone or the signal strength

Wondering if tv output still works on a non stock rom. Any other problems like Bluetooth or WiFi calling?
I tried it and it sorta worked. It randomly went to a black screen. The same setup works great on stock ROM. I kind of like the desktop mode on stock too.
The biggest problem was I could not make or receive calls.
