Xperia series , apps to SD

A sales (from offical sony showroom) told me that they recommed a apps which can be move files to the sd card therefore I bought a Xperia M (new model) and followed what he suggested. However, I found that it doesn't work finally and just noticed that most xperia users has the same problems about this issue(only music, photos, video can be moved). It's really disappointed.
And now, I'm appericated that if sony can be updated or developed any software/OS that can be selectively moved the apps to SD. It a big benifit to Sony and customers.

that should explain it
There is a way around it, you will have to root your phone > install an app: apps2sd then you will be able to do so.

    If you are on your phone you should be able to scroll down, there will be Full/Mobile > tap on Full > then the input box will have that option, it'll be the 9th option from left to right.

  • E72/ E series apps discussion

    Hi all. Discussions on this board sometimes get a bit depressing as most of us only post when we have problems with our phones. Something which can sadly be quite frequent.
    However, speaking personally, I am on the whole quite happy with the phone. It is purely the software stability issues that have bothered me.
    So trying to turn things to a more positive and interesting outlook, I wanted to start a discussion on the various apps that people are using on their E72s or E series phones. There are so many on the ovi store, but most are junk. But what gems have people uncovered?
    I will list my favourite apps, and the apps or type of apps I miss the most when looking at symbian 3 or android in comparison.
    Favourite/ most used apps:
    1. Sports tracker (free). I love keeping a record of my walking and this is perfect for that.
    2. Skype (free). Shame it doesn't support video, but otherwise what to add.
    3. Nimbuzz (free). For voip using sipgate via wifi when abroad and for a free landline number for incoming calls here and abroad. (I found the nokia sip system not to work with too many routers so use this instead).
    4. Joikuspot (free). Great for an emergency to broadcast phone's 3g signal over wifi to laptop. 
    5. Energy saver (£4). This is the only app I have paid for via ovi store. Despite the name it is basically a sleep timer. I use it to set the phone to go off on a timer after I fall asleep listening to internet radio or music.    
    6. Slingplayer (bought direct from slingplayer for about £15!). Great to watch and control home sky box whilst out and about or abroad.  
    Apps that I miss/ wish were available for e72:
    1. BBC iplayer. It worked for a while, but sadly no longer compatible with the E72 which is a great shame.
    2. Facebook. Really miss a proper facebook app. My wifes C6-01 has a great facebook app. They should really make this available on s60 phones.
    3. battery monitor. The battery monitor from touchscreen nokias isn't available on the e72, which is a real shame as it is very good.
    4. skype video or equivalent. Sadly you can't have both fring and skype on the phone. plus fring doesn't have a pc program. 
    5. A decent self updating news feed app. Like the BBC one on symian ^3.
    6. A good app for streaming, or uploading and sharing videos taken on the phone. I tried qik, but found the video extremely pixelated and basically unwatchable even when taken in offline mode and uploaded afterwards.  
    In truth that's about it that I can think of. Otherwise most apps I see people using on their iphones and androids just seem pointless.
    Anyone using any gems that I have missed?
    Anyone think of anything else that they really wish was available for s60 phones?

    Every E6 user got problems...:/
    just read the threads here...
    - you wont have NO EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS any more, no POPUP nothing:/,
    - the battery works max 2 days..in E72  3 -max 4days
    - no NOTIFICATION LIGHT like in the E72(the light is there but the DPad is not working with that
    - to press '!' you have to press now 2 keys
    - the DPad is no touchpad any more:/
    - you cant have calendar info, Email inbox, clock and other ICONS on one screen any more...!
    - no Autofocus

  • Xperia Z1 app closing

    Hello,
    When I return to the home screen from an app, using the back key, sometimes (more often than not) the phone opens another app that has not been used. Is this a common problem? Does anybody have a solution?

    Does this also happen if you only tap it a couple of times and from what apps? I've only seen it when pressing the back button several times while ending a call (which will close automatically when ended, pressing back here will not help, pressing home will however).

  • Xperia Care App

    Hi all, 
    Has anyone else having the issue where you can't sign into Xperia Care via your phone? 
    Whenever i click the sign-in link on the page it loads nothing. This is through the App and through Google Chrome. 
    It seems as though the mobile site is not setup correctly. Possibly a broken link on the "sign-in"? 
    Also have the same problem when clicking the "Add comment" link - no response, I thought this would load a sign-in page in order to comment - no luck of course. 
    Any help appreciated.

  • Xperia apps need to be updated

    some of apps has a bugs. The worst app is calculator.
    123
    456
    789
    is unnatural
    I think you must update this freaking app to this:
    And your homescreen is so laggy, soft .587.
    I install home.apk from xperia S and is really fast.. Why you don't update it for 2011 Xperias?

    One word... "LAZY DEVELOPERS", i mean come on, its not like the 2011 xperia series cannot run the updated apps (calculator/media apps/alarm) most of them are just apk's its just a matter of using the updated ones to compile. I mean if people from XDA can do it without access to the source, can't the sony devs do the same when everything is right infront of them???

  • Xperia Care phone app, not showing my phone model

It's strange that When I am trying to find out my phone, I found the phones chart is not showing Xperia Z2.

  • The Xperia Z1 is the best mobile device I have owned so far.....but for one annoying flaw.....

    OK, I have owned the Z1 for around 6 months now, and I have LOVED the product...I more or less have no complaints, and its become pretty much my favorite electronic device, except for my gaming PC : D
    I use it day in day out, listen to the radio, watch video, surf the web, exepriment with all kinds of the incredible apps, and of course, play games (and it will be gaming that my comment is primarily about)
    Thing is....gaming on the Xpeia Z1 is a GOOD experience....excellent GPU performance (though it gets HOT! ...really noticeably HOT..not warm....**bleep** it gets hot! : D), great screen, great sound with headphones (though the headphones jack tends to get in the way when holding the unit in landscape), and if playing without headphones, I find my hand covers the speaker and totally muffles the sound!
    These are just small niggles, but nevertheless, things I notice, that I would desire to be slightly changed if I had the chance, but I realise they are issues with the hardware and design, so Im happy to wait unitl I get my next phone (likely the Xperia that comes out in 18 months when my contract is up!) and see how they are dealt with through the evolution of the series.
    These are just mega picky things Ive noticed in an otherwise perfect design (for me....just my opinion).
    However...the only thing that REALLY REALLY REALLY ticks me off, is a software issue....that has apparently been dealt with via the 'Immersive Mode' feature in Kitkat 4.4.4 (which I am running on my Xperia)....
    That is the 'Soft keys' not disapearing in games, and taking up quite a large chunk of screen real estate.....in a very annoying place that depending on the game, can even quite easily be accidentally touched, kicking the unwary user out of the game,! (ARRRGHHH!)
    Now I realise that proper support for 'Immersive mode' is actually up to the developers (am i right in thinking this?) and I have tried a couple of games that advertise support, and its all well and good, and works fine, also my comic book reader supports it, and so I get ALL my screen for books (rarely, I use HDX for that), documents and comics....and of course the built in video player has seemingly ALWAYS supported complete fullscreen without these **bleep** buttons getting in the way....
    And its such a GREAT screen too....does anyone know exaclty WHY it is, that the Xperia series in particular sacrifices so much screen to these buttons while gaming?
    All games Ive tried have the 'Top Bar' (with battery, signal and time etc..nto sure what its called officially)...automatically hidden..so why not the 'bottom bar?'..the menu keys? Especially since the strip of screen is so HUGE!!
    To show 3 **bleep** buttons!
    What really makes me wonder, is that even my Kindle Fire HDX (which I use primarily for actualy reading books/newspaper/articles) and that I consider an 'inferior' device  in most respects..actually has a 'hide soft keys' feature...where in games and apps the 3 buttons and strip of screen are replaced by a very small and unobtrusive little tab...that you simply swipe out to expose the keys....
    A GREAT solutuion!
    Why isnt there something like this on the Xperia series?
    I have deliberately explained myself fully here because I have become very frustrated wth this just recently,  as I have been playing a lot of the brilliant games by the developer RORTOS...that makes impressive flight simulator games....games that (Particularly F-18 Carrier landings Pro 2) cannot run very well on my Kindle FIre HDX....
    They play beautifully smoothly while maxed out on the Z1 though....(and the same goes for GTA Vice City, that I have been enjoying playing again on mobile on the way to work every morning : D...thanks Sony and Rockstar for a great start to my workday xD)
    BUT these great games are being MARRED quite badly by those DAMNED BUTTONS!!
    In F18 Carrier Landings Pro 2 and Airfighters (2 RORTOS games that are really superb if you like flight sims) several controls are positioned at the edge of the screen...and the soft keys are right in the way...so they are functionally gettiing in the way...
    and whats more, they ruin the original design philosophy of the Xperia Z1...the design philosophy of 'OmniBalance'..because the game image is not equidistant from the left  AND the right side...but shunted one side or the other, because of these **bleep** buttons!
    (I hope I have explaiend this, and you can picture what I mean...it really irritates me : D)
    Yes I am aware of a few apps that are available, both root and non root solutions.. but I have found them all too imperfect...just not good enough, too clunky, too much configuring and messing around to get them to work...and even then they have too much impact on other functions to be worth it for me...since i do use my Z1 for a LOT of different things.....
    The ones Ive tried are fine as kind of Dev Tools...but I really love the overall design of the Z1...and I like to KEEP it beautiful and slick to use...as slick as it looks...(yep, I like the cosmetics so much, I cant even bring myself to keep it in a case xD...I just have to be careful with it...and its hardly got a scratch so far...just a few hairline type ones : (....
    So...can Sony please add a little feature, like the small tab that I mention above on the Kindle Fire HDX, to hide those keys?
    I have messaged RORTOS about them supporting Immersive mode fully, and they said they would look into it (of course they said that!), bur that most devices these days ALREADY hide the soft keys in games...and in my experience, thats true!
    Out of 5 or 6 devices Ive played games on, i have to say that the Xperia series is easily the most effected by this issue.
    and its ANNOYING as **bleep**...and I KNOW Im not the only one that thinks this...but I havent found an official Sony response (or indeed Android or Developer one) about what is likely to be done.
    So does anyone have any news?
    Does anyone know why one of the best screens and best GFX performers in a mobile device is still suffering from the soft keys being present at all times in games?....(except every now and then Ive noticed the keys are slightly camoflaged, as white dots....the strip of screen is still taken up, but the actual key icons are reduced to white dots (anyone else seen this?) but this just seems to happen randomly......sometimes it does that, mostly it does NOT...and besides, its not a real solution anyway...since a chunk of screen is STILL used up by it....
    Please Sony, you use a custom Android,  just liek Amazon do on the Kindle Fire HDX (though admittedly, not quite SO customised xD), and THEY can hide these keys without immersive Mode support...
    Why cant Sony?
    rant over...
    I still totally love the phone..Im only going off on one like this because I love everything else about it...but this one thing I think is actually a pretty big deal.....so please address it ..
    Please?
    All the ebst
    jim.
    (PS I am also really harrassing RORTOS about supporting Immersive Mode too....if ALL the Devs supported it, then this wont be an problem (I suppose anyway?)....but Im not sure if there is an issue about how many people are actually USING KitKat 4.4.4...I would guess a LOT but perhaps not quite enough to make a special effort for?....anyway...Im not just picking on Sony : D)
    rant really over.....for now.....

    You had to have some kudos for the effort put in to your thread as week as the point you make.

  • SD Card not supporting to my Xperia Z3 :(

Help me. I spent lot of money on this Feel sad.  I love Sony thats why I bought all xperia series. Cant tolerate.

So I guess the problem with my Xperia Z3 memory card slot read? Please someone confirm it, I will go to service centre immediately. Thanks,Babu S

  • Hairline crack in touch screen (not the glass) in Xperia Z1

    I have a 5 month old Xperia Z1 mobile phone which has never been dropped or knocked.  On removing it from a padded pocket in my bag I noticed that the touch screen under the glass has a diagonal hairline crack originating from the top centre of the phone to under the right hand corner (the external glass has no crack).  After researching this I note that this is a known fault with the Xperia series mobile phones.   http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/05/30/bbcs-watchdog-investigates-xperia-z1-cracking-screen-issue-sony...
    I have not been able to contact Sony for advice using their contact us email form (dead link), live chat (not currently operating), or by phone (busy signal whenever I call).
    I am really dissatisfied with my phone cracking like this particularly when it is not the result of negligence.  Can you please respond to my query and restore my faith in your customer service...

  • Mail app attachment problem

    Having a problem When I'm sending a mail whit a picture for example, from the native mail app from my Xperia Z1 The mail is sending normally and under sent mail appears normally whit the attachment but when I go to Yahoo mail site from my browser the mail is there, it has the attachment paperclip but no attachment. Also the same thing on Opera mail from desktop.
    The curious thing is that the attachment is send to the sender normally but I can't see it in my sent folder.
    Is anyone tried this whit the stock mail client? I think it may be some kind of format issue when the app is composing the chunk of information regarding the attachments...
    Z1     4.4.2     14.3.A.0.757

    I retested the Mail app after I installed android lollipop and the issue is still there. The mail is send normaly with attachments to the receiver but i cannot see the attachments in my send folder  from any mail client except the one on the phone despite the attachment icon is present on the sent mail. I analyze the mail header and i'm not an expert but the header seams to be incomplete for the messages sent from the xperia mail app, it's missing the part in which the attachment info should be.
    Can someone forward this issue  to the developers to reproduce please (full description of the problem in the first post) , i don't want to use other mail client, i'm happy wit this one.
