Migrating from an iPhone, is there anyway to transfer chat history over to the Z? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As per thread title. I am jailbroken and I can access the whatsapp folder but I guess the file formats are different for whatsapp in Android? Cos there are over 2 years of chat history and I don't want to lose them all.

It would really help if you bothered to SEARCH.

You have to download the app and configurate it on your mobile.
Then from internet you have to go https://www.cerberusapp.com/ and put username and pass. You have loads of options there to control your mobile if stoled etc.
Free tracking app!

[Q] Wi-Fi Direct - Application needed

Anyone succeeded transferring files (photos, videos or any other file types) using Wi-Fi direct without using any third party software on both devices?
*** Bump ***
Anyone?
What a pity!
Apperenly no one used the Wi-Fi Direct?
I saw a big cry out in XS forum from people for this feature, but here no one seems to be using it

unfortunatelly wifi direct no working
I've succesfully sent music over the computer and Phone with wifi, not using any apps whatsoever.
You can do it with OfficeSuite WiFi Direct. Install OfficeSuite on both phones, then use the Share menu to send files over WiFi Direct with OfficeSuite.

I've officesuite that came with the phone pre-installed. But when I try to share via Wi-Fi Direct, I don't see any share option to do so. But the connection between the device is successful.
I don't quite understand, why does this require an app? Isn't this a native Android feature?

Yes. It works (shows in the share) after I opened the OfficeSuite once.
But why is this feature requires an app? Isn't this an standard Android feature? No common built-in share application?

There is no built-in sharing over WiFi Direct in Android. Might come later though.

Bro, I know we can transfer via few other ways. Wi-Fi direct has one of the fastest transfer rates and more over trouble-free if it can work.
I'm talking about couple of gigs video files to transfer from one device to another on the go! Any suggestions without third-party software?

Without 3rd party m not sure if its possible right now but try this: SUPERBEAM WiFi Direct (Click here for Marker Link)
With this you can simply scan the bar code and transfer huge data (I tried photos) - let me know !!

What SMS app do you use on the Z.

Which one works the best on the Xperia Z
Sony's stock Messaging app. But SMS/MMS is so old school. I mainly use WhatsApp and I have Viber too.
Sent from my Xperia Z using Tapatalk 4
I use Handcent SMS which the black theme. It is a free app and I think it looks better than the stock Sony one because the main colour is black. The stock one isn't the best for when it is sitting on my desk at work due to the washed out whites.

Uhhh...who still uses SMS?
Plenty of people still use SMS.
1. I have unlimited SMS on my plan.
2. You can still send/receive them when data coverage is spotty/non-existent and IM apps may struggle.
3. Everyone has SMS capabilities on their phone, so I can contact anyone without worrying if they use the same messenger as me etc.

1. Even if you have unlimited SMS, it's still far far inferior to e.g. Whatsapp. Just the fact that you can't have group-conversations is enough... when you go on holiday or meet with a group somewhere... it's just so much more convenient. Not to mention sending images, location, videos...
2. In my country, when you have coverage, you have 2G/GRPS also. It's enough to use Whatsapp.
3. Everyone here has Whatsapp... and i mean everyone. In fact providers had to completely change their plans because nobody was texting anymore.

Everyone should do what I do, use their phone the way I do and make sure their friends all use the same messenger that I do and they're wrong if they don't.
All your friends may be up with technology and have a phone that's capable of using messengers, but don't assume that is the case for everyone. SMS can be sent/received by feature/dumb phones that many of my older relatives and friends still use, therefore they are still useful for ME.
Anyway, I don't understand why you're in here arguing about the way other people use their own phones. Mind your own business!

I was just curious since I didn't expect people on XDA actually still using an inferior service like SMS...that's all. It's a forum right? "discussion"?
Over here Whatsapp actually makes people buy smartphones... even 'older' (50+) people buy smartphones so they can use Whatsapp and stay in contact with their family.

You asked who uses SMS, so I told you why I personally still use SMS. No need for you to tell me it's 'inferior' or how you use your phone or how many people bought phones just for Whatsapp (lol by the way).
Just so you know, I was joking with the whole mind your business thing. It just seems strange how some people want to enforce their way of doing things on others, that's all.

Android 4.1 is missing the simple code to oranize group message. If Sony is using the stock messenger with a skin then you have to use another messaging application. This feature was added to Android in 4.2.

The diaspora page in the OP doesn't exist.
If you're looking for an easy Twitter alternative you could try https://quitter.se which is a statusnet-based site with a nice mobile web UI that aims to be as user-friendly as Twitter; or better still you could set up an instance at omnirom.org. There are bridges from Twitter to Statusnet so one post can reach both networks; same probably goes for Diaspora I'd guess.

try Disqus comment system, you can't comment unless you login using social media. All comments with links needs approval from mods. if a comment is reported as abuse a specific number of times(set by you) it's auto removed. swear words can be automatically blocked.
IMHO there's no point in keeping comments closed.

Honestly, again - no point in having comments open as we have plenty of places to discuss (G+ Community, forum threads, etc.). Adding one more thing (moderation to say the least) is just not practical.
