Sony Xperia S: How to merge Internal memory and Device memory?

Thu, 18 Apr 2019 04:18:36 -0700

Hi,

Sony Xperia S LT26i, has Device memory of 1.97GB. However there is 25GB of Internal Storage memory. Device memory is so small that more than half of it is occupied by Android, leaving very small space for applications. This in-turn slows up the device as there is very little space is remaining. I want to merge the both the partitions (Device memory and Internal memory). Can you please help me on this. My Emailid is: gaurav.whitelotus@gmail.com.

Thanks in advance!

Gaurav

Sony Xperia S: xperia s shows no signs of life no charging leds nothing

Tue, 07 Jul 2020 07:38:30 -0700

ok so i have a xperia s that is not working i have opened it up and everything seems fine and the battery looks good too. My dad used to own this phone but then one day he put it to charge and it didnt charge and the phone just then died, i have it opened up and have inspected the charge port and it looks good i have even disconnected all the cables and reconnected and still nothing. the charge port looks clean inside and on the board it looks normal aswell. i dont know if its a battery issue or something but one day i had a small samsung battery to try test it and all it did was make the board abit hot but no signs of life. is there a way of fixing without replacing anything?

Do flex cables and their connectors have some identifying labels? If so, what is the type of flex cable for the Xperia S back camera, as seen in this picture?

I simply need a cable that allows me to extend the back camera a few inches. I learned that these cable are called tester flex cables, but where can I find the exact type to work with Xperia S back camera? Thank you in advance.
