Sony XZ Premium how to activate adb remotely or reset to initial screen settings - Sony Xperia XZs Questions & Answers

Hello!
I did setting for my xz premium to activate 4k using adb.
By mistake I did wrong setting wm size to 108×1920 instead of wm size to 1080×1920.
Now I have my XZ premium with small line so I can activate debug mode and run adb again to change it to normal
Is there any way to access this setting or reboot phone so it will return to normal.
Thank you!

[BUG LIST] JellyBean 4.1.1 , 3.16.401.8 WWE Firmware

I just found few bugs:
-Touchscreen hangs on first boot, have to power off and on the screen to make it working
-Also is impossible to disable ADB, strange behaviour with Developer Setting menu too (adb can be disabled only with Developer Setting ON, if i select OFF, adb auto-re-enable it self when USB is connected again)
-mouse cursor with USB Host is really SLOW and LAGGY
-on USB Host disconnect, "Select method od writing" doesn't disappear, if i select HTC Sense Input it's still there, cannot remove from the notification bar
-MTP it's FUUUUU**** SLOW!!! Bugged, cannot copy flac file!!! When first file is copied, than it stop copying!!! This ruined my day, tomorrow i have no music on my phone!!! FU** HTC!!!
New feature! USB Host now is self powered! USB mass storage is working without external power!!! :good:
Big changes:
-USB connection is changed
Pro: no data corruption, now ADB/Fastboot is working ok with Win8 Computer with Intel USB 3.0 too
Con: we are force to use htc sync manager, and MTP to copy files, TOO BAD
I haven't any problem to transfer flax file

Use TWRP to mount as mass storage.

Regarding the file transfer thing, a workaround to access and transfer files as "Mass Storage", try using AirDroid: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zYW5kLmFpcmRyb2lkIl0.
You can transfer and speed install apps and stuff, for more info: http://andystudenthandbook.blogspot.com/2012/11/when-cables-desert-you-airdroid-app.html
EDIT: Another workaround: Instal the HTC Sync Drivers, then launch the internal storage from the "Portable Device" in My Computer. You should be able to copy files this way.
Do you also have a two drives after connecting HOS to PC (In My Computer)? One with internal storage and second one visible as blank CD/DVD? This second one can be also accessible after switching on ADB? I can instal HTC Sync from that.
No bug till now
The space button doesn't work if you use the standard T9 keyboard in the default browser in portrait mode.

Qwertz keyboard mode in landscape mode shows Z instead of Y.
Ugly calculator widgets.
Using new power save mode, when phone is sleeping, and you connect wall charger, the phone will not charge until you wake up the screen...
If you have another keyboard like swiftkey, every time you reboot your phone you have to activate it from the menu. Can people please confirm?

And why wouldn't you have the driver already installed I hate this new way of doing it its really crap, I have to reboot the phone to get to see an up to date file list so just don't bother with it and use TWRP.
I am curious would anyone who is in the TMo's beta testing program can report these issues to them so that HTC can fix it.
When you receive a text message there isn't a box on the lock screen with 1 or 2 lines of the message content and the senders name. There is just a little number on the messages icon on the lock screen. Don't think it's a bug but it's definitely a change. the first image is what the ics lock screen was like and the second is what happens now. It's quite annoying because you can't see who the message is from without unlocking your phone! WTF

I have it set to shortcuts only if that helps.
Lol see you sorted it now lol.
Before the update, the notification bar had multitouch ability, means that I could pull it down half way and with the other hand toggle the power toggles like wifi and etc. Now i have to pull it down and then i can use the toggle...
Another bug, with swiftkey Keyboard on as default the keypad for unlocking the phone with PIN code is not as before much smaller and annoying.

[Q] Q: Tasker

Hey,
I have a question about Tasker and Secure Settings.
I woud love to know if its possible to set a timing on my smartphone to lock my device with a pincode and how.
If someone could help me with that, that would be awesome!
~AwakenJornie
1. Go to settings > display.
2. Select "sleep" after how much ever time you want.
3. Go to settings> security
4. Select the screen lock, as password/ pattern
5. The phone will automatically lock after the given amount of time
Hope this helped.

But is this with or without the Tasker app?

Change DPI without root?

Is this possible on the G5?

I don't think is possible since it requires build.prop tweak

you should be able to do the adb shell size or density not rooted... may cause issues with bootloops though so watch out...
theres also a toggle under the settings-home for a larger grid on the stock launcher which essentially makes it larger however unlike a samsung phone this setting doesn't reflect if you are using another launcher other than stock
'adb shell wm density XXX' did work for me, but unfortunately the only density I can get to work other than the default 640 is 540. Any other usual value causes the com.android.phone app to crash repeatedly.

adb shell wm size should work and not cause app crashes... only issue with it is that you have to keep messing with it to find the best setting
I wanted to try this, but I'm not seeing anything when I enter "adb devices". I can browse my phone through Windows explorer though.

I figured it out, turn on USB Tethering.
Edit: You can also set USB mode to Midi Device.
using this method messes up many applications, including the Always-on Display.
have to edit the build.prop file to change it properly.
560 works fine for me. Only slight issue is the maps navigation popup for turning. The icons a little off center

[Completed] system UI force stoping after changing dpi value by Root DPI Changer :(

I changed dpi value by Root DPI Changer in Acer Liquid Z530(T02) I accidentally set it to 100 (But it works for 200). It restarted later system UI is forced stopped. I can't access to anything even when I can receive a call but I can't even pick up. No caller screen is visible. I went to flash menu and select factory reset. So I think developer tools may be turned off. Therefore, usb debugging got off. Is there any possibility of getting it back to normal state.
I rooted my mobile by King Root.

Themes / Apps / Mods Zui14PcModeSwitch Pre-release

Update : I've finally managed to do it without need of installing "Setedit".
As I have repeatedly read of users being disappointed with the lack of PC Mode in ZUI 14, so I decided to look into this.
My application simply does this with no other manipulations than a simple click on the application.
The first time you will run it, this will ask you permission to modify settings but your device will go to the desktop mode before you have time to do it.
When you will be in desktop mode if you run again on the app. You will be asked again and have to allow permission to modify settings. For a strange reason that’s only really required, for going back to the classic mode.
Zui14PcModeSwitch Pre-release
are you saying that if we use your application we dont need to use the staredit hack ? we simply run your app and it switches to PC mode ?
does your app switch to pc mode even when the tablet is not connected to external monitor or TV ?

staredit hack ?!?
Yes like, with setedit you will be able to switch to pc mode even when the tablet is not connected to external monitor or TV.
no, your apk file app-debug.apk.... if we install this apk file we can switch pc mode on and off ? or do we still need to do all the other stuff as well ?

If setedit is installed and if you have already run it once to change zui_pc_mode. Install my app, allow it to change system and you can turn PC mode on and off just by launching it.
I can confirm this works great. Typing this now from within Desktop mode!
Incase the app not working like mine I keep pressing but not working
You need to long press the then select app info then permissions then select modify system settings then click accept.The app will now work
Also thanks on the creator of the app because I don't need to use set edit to just go on PC mode
I wanted you make an update that I can add a shortcut on the control center
Here a GitHub and the Pre-release
It worked very well, you can download it that works. Thanks to the app developer
I just uploaded a new version.
Contrary to what I had first thought. The only really useful element in the source code of setedit, is as far as we are concerned: "targetSdkVersion 22" present in: build.gradle.
The shared key, present in the Sources of Setedit, pushed me to do the same. For this new version made available to you, I did not make this mistake, since nothing prevents you from compiling yours with your own key.
Hi, thank you for the PC mode APK. but somehow when I tried to go into the menu, all the icons are somehow overlays and it is not showing the full icons and it is making it hard for me to identify or click.
And problem is that my game used to be in portrait mode in PC mode but now it is not and the game somehow just grey screen upon starting the game.
Any idea why is it so? Thanks.

Hi,
I haven't noticed any of these issues on my device: TB-J716F ZUI 14.0.127.
Which one is yours ?
Have you tried changing the font or icon size?
Have you tried rebooting to see if the problem persists?
@ferreol-fr
Thanks for this app, it works well and has made me see for myself how pointless this mode is now.
Fwiw I also have the half icons on apps screen in productivity mode and it persisted after restart/font size tweaks..
Thanks, app works fine on Pad Pro 2022 SD870.
I mostly use it in portrait mode for writing and manga reading so PC mode will be a rare but useful mode when I need it.
Hi OP, thanks for the app but i'm also facing the same issue with the menu overlay. I've tried changing the font, font size and restarting but it's still the same

Mine is also TB-J716F ZUI 14.0.127. I didn’t make any changes to the font or icon size. Tried rebooting but still having the same issue
Are people able to get the video output working on the China rom? Mine hasn't worked since the beginning, thought this mode might get it working but alas no.
I have manage to resize manaully the window to portrait to able to run the game without issue. But is there any way that the system is bale to resize it automatically?
But I am still not able to resolve that overlapping icon in the menu. Tried to find way to resize the menu but somehow it doesn't let me resize.
Is there a function or setting that I can set to automatically resize all open window to let say half of the screen in portrait mode?
Thanks
Does not work on j716f zui14
