My Xperia locate problem

Hello!
I figured since I had the brand new phone, I should set up the my Xperia thing so that if it's stolen or lost I can find it, just as it advises.
Well... the 'locate' function doesn't report where it is. In fact, it thinks it's about 230 miles away, next to a reservoir... in the back end of nowhere... apparently.
I assume there's something wrong with the setup of it and that this can be fixed, otherwise I sure hope I never lose it!
Does anyone know what the issue might be?...

I personally turned the "my Xperia" option off and just use the "standard" Google device manager (www.android.com/devicemanager/).  I don't know if there are any Xperia specific features, but I didn't notice any over and above what Google already offer and that works for me.  It's also one less thing for my phone to do in the background.

  • XSD Location Problem.

    Hi Gurus,
    After starting the node in a cluster environemnt, often receiving "Unable to load Translation schemas from for http://xmlns.oracle.com/BRM/schemas/BusinessOpcodes due to: XSD Location problem.
    XSD Loading problem."
    This is mainly observed in BRM schemas, has anyone exprienced this? what shall be the workaround/solution other than restarting the container/application?
    We are using SOA 10.1.3.4 MLR 8 and Oracle AIA 2.4.
    Please help.

    The BRM schemas are present in the AIA Components which will be referred by the load balancer url in a clustered environment. However, if in any of the nodes, the url for AIA Components has the local node url instead of load balancer url, this issue occurs.
    Identify the node which is giving the issue (shutting down one node at a time and retrying the operation which gives the error). In the node which has the issue, try doing a search on AIA components to find out if there is any reference using local node url instead of load balancer.
    If you find any, replace with the load balancer url. I had faced a similar issue and I was able to resolve it as I have mentioned above.

  • Storm9530 Location problem??

    Hi, i live in Canada and recently purchased a used and unlocked BB Storm 9530 off the internet from texas USA. I am using the phone Pre-paid for the time being and for some reason my calls I make are costing me a fortune. I live in a border-town with a US town right on the american side but since the phone is pre-paid it cant roam. Ive talked to my cell phone company about this and they said for some reason the phones is calling internationally and its not the service itself. The phone is manually selected for my home network and i just cant figure it out. is it because the phone is an american phone? is there any way of checking more into this because i cant even use my phone to call because $5.00 for a 15 second call is rediculous. please help!

    What a totally ridiculous claim. Most iPad owners have no problems at all in this area. The fact that you are is invidual to you and your case and, absent any useful information at all in your two posts aside from "Hey, it ain't working ...", I guess we could guess that your problems are due to the fact that
    a. You don't have a 3G model, and therefore you don't have GPS, or ..
    b. You do, but it isn't working right, or ..
    c. You do, and it's working right, but PEBKAM, or ..
    d. You don't have a 3G model, and your iPad is unable to resolve the local WIFI data to generate a rough location, or ...
    e. Same as d. above, but the local wifi datafields are simply incomplete or incorrect, or ...
    f.  Yadda yadda yadda ......

    Hi,
    I encounter a autocomplete text popup location problem
    whereas the popup location is always located few cm below the textBox itself.
    Any idea how to solve this?
    Is there any property i need to set in order to prevent this?
    I am using BluePrints Ajax Component by the way.
    Thanks

    yea.

  • Xperia m2 problems

    Hello
    I bought my Xperia m2 exactly one year ago and i have a few problems and questions:1. Screen developed 3 bad pixels. they are not annoying but still there
    2. Screen developed bright sports- there are areas on the screen that are significaly brigther than their surroundings. That is starting to become annoying3. lower part of the bezel, one that covers microphone and speakers has fallen off
    4. 3.5" audio jack arrived broken, it pushes jack out of it when inserted, i have to hold it in to play
    5. complete rear plastic/glass/cover is extremely easy to scratch which is not a huge problem coz it is after all a budget phone, at least it was supposed to be, it's pretty expensive in croatia; but the problem is extremely easy to scratch camera lens. that is unacceptably bad. front panel has no scratches whatsoever so it's not me.
    6. water damage sticker placement. It's located on the top right part of phone on the very top corner of the sim/memorycard opening. It is protected by a plastic bezel part that has a lot of play so even a tiny water drop can easily find it's way to it by water capillary action. ALSO that's the reason i cant fix my phone coz people at service center will tell me its waterdamage- my fault. 
    That placement is a most **bleep**youcostumer thing i have seen in a long time. Rly smooth Sony.Now things that can be fixed by software but arent:
    7. light sensor sometimes works perfectly sometimes not at all. dunno why, makes no sense
    8. compass is impossible to calibrate, it always shows wrong no matter how dilligently or what method i use to calibrate it.
    9. audio during call sometimes halves loudness by half and keeps it that way until the end of a call, volume rockers cant turn it higher anymore
    10. also earspeaker sometimes doesnt work. sometimes starts working when a next call happens sometimes no, restart fixes it. loudspeaker works, thats how i know thats the problem
    11. loudspeaker volume levels are extremely non linear. the ones in the middle are fine, but last two? what the **bleep**
    12. recent task often shows close all (as in apps) while there arent any. It does that since kitkat. i hate that so much
    13. Stamina while excellent, kills google store updated while the phone is charging when the screen shuts down. where is the logic in stamina working when phone is charging? Also didnt it say somewhere that it will allow all downloads in progress even if ecreen turns off? 
    14. BIG ONE: cant record anything in loud areas. Sound becomes extremely distorted. with or without mic cancellation. that is a huge problem which is there since the beginning
    15. file transfer by cable is extremely slow and unreliable in media mode. other one is better but then cant touch phone memory so whats the point.
    I think thats it. maybe there are few more things but i cant remember them.
    one more, phone heats up like **bleep**. whatever i do. even if i just use whatsapp for a few min. in summer its really hateful.
    and one more: charging takes 4 **bleep**ing hours on a official charger. WHAT THE **bleep**
    I teleported the official charger in the wall then garbage several months ago and use some random one with 1a what that charges at least 1.5 times faster. id say twice but i'll let you have it sony.coz official one was 850ma so lets not stick to that. 
    also charging in summer and using your phone at the same time is not possible coz the heat is unbearable.
    Thankfully thats where the amazing battery comes into play. i charge it only during nightime. battery life is really really amazing. thats why when i throw the phone wanting to kill it i throw it in a pillow or rug or somewhere soft. its a **bleep** of a redeeming quality. 
    I heard it will recieve android 5.1, please fix problems that can be fixed. thank you and I apologize for my choice of words.
    Hope to get a satisfying answer. Kisses from hot Croatia

  • Maps Location Problems - PLEASE HELP

    I have an 8 Gb iphone with firmware 1.1.4 and am trying to use the maps location feature. it will not work unless i turn my WiFi off and then try to locate and once i have been located i can turn WiFi back on and get a more accurate location. even if i am not connected to WiFi but i still have the WiFi feature turned on it will not work. please help

    I recall this post before. Were you the same one that posted it? The Google map location function seems to be the problem here, and it could be an issue with the application. Did you try the troubleshooting steps in order, power off/on, reset, restore? If you did and that doesn't seem to fix it, then I suggest a trip to the Apple Store Genius bar. I also find it interesting that once you get a location, that turning on the WiFi gets it more accurate. I've not seen that. The location goes out and gets its information from a webserver. If there is an issue connecting to their database, I don't know that you would get an error message. I think I posted the name of the server before, I just can't remember it now. There is a way to update location information with that service, it is posted on their webpage. I know I have the location saved on my desktop, it's is just that I'm away from home right now on my laptop. I'll see if I can find it for you.

  • Xperia z1 Problem AFTER system update to latest software 14.3.A.0.681

    Hello people, First of all let my just say that I am new into the ''smartphones world'' so please excuse my queries if they proof to be 'obvious' to you! I have carried out a system update to my Xperia Z1 phone yesterday (Android 4.4.2. kitkat, latest available software 14.3.A.0.681). The update seem to have been correctly performed. However I have since encounter the following issues/problems with my phone and do not know how to fix them: 1) First of all my phone will no longer rotate...why is this? Is this related to the update?? Pictures/photos can no longer rotate and also phone screen does no longer rotate! Why is this..? 2) Second the 'Notifications Bar' structure has changed : is this also the result of the update or can I do something in settings to fix it and make it as before? When I scroll dawn the notifications bar, the icons are no longer displayed at the top line but are instead spread underneath BUT this is AFTER I press 'Quick settings'. 3) Battery signal icon has changed completely: no lines included inside icon to show usage but instead usage %age is now displayed. Also, when I charge my phone, there is no icon flashing as before and now lights flashing.. 4) Also when I want to use the phone after it has remained unused for sometime it states 'swipe to unlock' and makes a 'funny' note upon performance of the act: this was not the case before.. Can you please help me with the above? I am freaking out because I am excited with my new phone and would love to make full use of it properly but it is a bit hard for me since I have no clue how to fix issues/problems appearing every now and then since I am new into these things.. Thanking you in advance

    Hi there,
    I think you have fixed your 1st issue.
    2) Yes, Kitkat has changed the Notification Bar structure. Its a bit annoying, but to get around it you can use Widgets - Tools and select the Icon, such as WIFI to be placed on your home screen to avoid multiple clicks. You cant do anything in the settings to make it like before.
    3) Battery Signal Icon - Again a Kitkat update has done that. The good thing is that it has enhanced Battery life considerably.
    4) I am assuming you are stating about the "sound note" it makes when you swipe in. Thats again a Kitkat feature and you can get rid of it though Sound settings if you dont like it.
    Reality is that Kitkat runs very well on Google Nexus 5. Apart from that it has issues on every other Android power Smartphone out there. I also own a Nexus 4 who recently got upgraded to Kitkat and compared it with Nexus 5. Was not impressed to be honest.
    As of my upgrade on Z1, I have been facing Volume issues. When I play a video the volume is minimized for some reason. Pause and play again and it goes to Normal. I have to reboot it sometimes to play normally. It also takes ages to connect to my 3G provider, whereas previously it was fast enuf. I hope the next upgrade will fix those issues. 

  • Purchase Order: Ship to location problem - Please help

    Hi All,
    I have come across a problem when publishing Purchase orders where the PO header ship to address differs to a seperate PO line ship to address.
    I have written the following Choose statement to try and show separate ship to locations for each separate PO line.
    <?for-each:G_LINES?>
    <?choose:?>
    <?when:number(//G_HEADERS/POH_SHIP_TO_LOCATION) = number(//G_SHIPMENTS/PLL_SHIP_TO_LOCATION)?>
    <?POL_LINE_NUM?> <?C_ITEM_DESC?> <?LINE_NOTE?>
    <?end when?>
    <?otherwise:?>
    <?POL_LINE_NUM?> <?C_ITEM_DESC?> <?LINE_NOTE?>
    SHIP TO: <?ADDRESS_LINE1?>
    <?ADDRESS_LINE2?>
    <?end otherwise?>
    <?end choose?>
    <?end for each?>
    my logic is that if the header ship to ID is = to the line items ship to ID then just show some basic PO line info.
    Otherwise if the numbers differ then show the individual lines info along with the additional Ship to address which is in ADDRESS_LINE1, ADDRESS_LINE2 etc.
    And repeat this condition for how ever many PO lines exist for the overall purchase order.
    However, when i publish this the "otherwise" condition never gets checked if the first PO line is TRUE and vis versa if the first PO line is false.
    So if the first PO line is true then every single PO line will just show the When condition even if the separate PO lines ship to ID differs to the POH_ship to id.
    any idea why the otherwise condition wont fall true for the 2nd 3rd or however many PO lines there are if the first PO line is flagged as true?
    I hope this makes sense. Many thanks for any help.
    Greg

    I have a PO that we are using that has basically the same requirements. If the line address is different (any of them) then the header prints a message to "see below" and the address line contains the shipping information.
    The way I have done this was to create a variable and compare to see of any of the lines were different when the header was read. Then check the var when the line is processed. The template is quite long as we have many fields that dynamically display/or not so I will post a truncated version below and also please note that on this form we simply gave up using the Oracle's "fantastic" MSWORD plug-in and had to use pure a XML-FO template. However, I think the portions/logic you need should be transferable into MSWORD if you are careful.

  • Location problem with my iPad

    Hello everyone!
    I own an iPad 16GB WiFi. I have a problem with location system in all my apps from iPad since a few days. Any of my apps can get my location. All of them shows a message about location error.
    I'm using WiFi connection at home and never had this problem before.
    Some things that have changed in the last days:
    - I replaced my home gateway. I had a Comtrend HG536+. Now I'm using a Cisco Linksys WAG320N.
    - I changed WiFi security from WPA to WPA2.
    - I updated my iPad to iOS 4.3.4 version.
    All my devices connect correctly to the WiFi network, even my iPad. Why suddenly location doesn't work on my iPad?
    Thanks,

    Thanks for your answer!
    I test it with the WiFi connection at work and location works perfectly. So I suppose it's about what you said. I have just two more question about this:
    - Can I do something for getting my new router to get registered or just wait?
    - Is it a problem for location that my WiFi connection uses WPA2 security or it doesn't matter?
    Thanks.
    It has become a mystery as to how the router would become registered. It used to be that you could do this yourself online, but I think that self-registry is gone or Apple no longer uses that database.
    The security method does not mater.

  • Location problem

    Hello
    Another N900 problem...
    I use skype and msn accounts, and when I'm on the road, it constantly updates my location and puts it in my nickname.
    Now it doesn't do that anymore: the location thing in the status bar has dissapeared. When I click on the small map widget (the power button thing, to see your location) it does get my position, and at that point, the location thing IS in the status bar.
    But, I think, when it has a fixed position, it stops auto-refreshing.
    Anyone with the same problem or a solution?
    Thanks! 

    One possible workaround is to change the ssid. The phones should in theory not recognise it and remap. Try it and let me know.
    It isn't exactly the router that is transmitting the wrong location. It is your phones from past experience associating the router with a specific location.  

  • The only way to fix Xperia P problems after the jelly bean update!

    After the jelly bean update my Xperia got slow, I could not answer phone calls, the call log took so much time to appear , I have tried uninstalling external softwares , reseting the phone , nothing worked. Finally I have downgraded the phone follwing the guidelines provided in this link - http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Android-development/GUIDE-How-to-Install-Jelly-Bean-ICS-Ice-Cream-Sand...
    Now my phone is fast , gallery is working fine , I can receive phone calls , no useless chrome by default , the google search widget works fast , the overall performance is much better. So I would recommend people to downgrade their Xperia p to ice cream sandwich and stick with it. OLD is GOLD! 

    What is your build version now after downgrading to ICS? I could not download 6.1.1.B.1.54 from the list which was best to me.. Please let me know quickly, I'm having the same **bleep** problem in JB.

  • Tooltip location problem

    Ok, i have a jfram with lots of components that uses different tooltips. The tooltips display some information and can get fairly big.
    The problem i have is that the tooltips for components are located so that they maybe go outside of the actual jframe that holds all the components.
    I want the tooltips to be relocated so that they are always fully inside the jframe's edges and not go outside.
    Anyone can give any hints on how to fix this?

    java.io.File app_file=new java.io.File(app_iconid);You can also just doString path = application.getRealPath("/img/" + app_id + ".jpg");

  • Xperia T problems after JB update

    Hi,
    I'm having some issues after updating to JB. My biggest issues is that when I tap an app, it wont load. If I repeatedly tap it might load, and if it does I can get it to resume from the app history menu.
    I also have problems disabling and enabling wifi, either in settings or on the widget.
    I've tried resetting the phone.
    Any ideas?

    I suggest that you try to run a software reinstall using SUS.
