While I find Waze's traffic estimation and the share route function good, its core navigational properties leaves a lot to be desired.

Try driving around KL once with it and you will realise the importance of lane assistance that it solely lacks.

Basically, it does not tell you which lane to stay in or which exit/ramp to take. Yes, it does show the arrow where to turn as well as the distance before reaching there, and it is highlighted, but with all the multiple flyovers in KL and many other parks of Klang Valley, chances are you would miss a lot of turns.
The waiting game will never end. In fact, if you are following rumours, that phone you just linked is already outdated. There are already rumours of a Sony 5" FullHD SnapDragon 800 @ 2.2ghz with Cybershot branding, with a larger sized sensor and xenon flash, 32GB internal + microSD and being water/dust resistant too. Of course, I still feel like that's a geeky wish list more than anything else.

Edit: Oh yeah.. an apparently spots a 2700-3000 mAh battery.. but then again, the Z WAS rumoured to have a 2700 mAh too =\... LOL

Do you need a phone now? If you do, get the Z, you won't regret it. Not urgent? Then just wait it out.

from what i read bout the rumors was not stated cybershot branding but under ONE branding, myb a new line other than XPERIA, it was stated that ONE branding will combined all sony tech like cybershot and walkman. Awesome if it is true.

Sony has a lot to offer in the camera department with the Cyber-shot brand, and in the audio realm with all the tech surrounding the Walkman moniker, but the saying now is that there will only be one flagship phone under the new umbrella, not separate devices for camera aficionados with Cyber-shot module, and with Walkman branding for music fans.

laugh.gif LoL nice meeting you, bro~ just came back home, and finally installed the Sony Checkered Flag back screen protector. Love it. No more finger print magnet at the back.

X-Doria bumper fits and wrap nicely around Z. Very easy to install and very rigid.

Some photos:

Check PM for link.

You can apply on top on your existing Nilkin SP but I think the cutout part on camera will look weird coz different size. I took off mine and apply the chequered sp instead.

Bumper is quite easy to remove. It's made of plastic and rubber but it's quite rigid and flexible.

Can see video here:


Wallpaper is actually from Xperia S cosmic flow wallpaper. tongue.gif Can get it HERE.

i recognized the cosmic wallpaper but in ur picture there was a xperia z wording, where do u get that or how do u create it?

This is my lock screen. Customised it so that I can perform most of my most needed functions from the lockscreen itself. You see the notification row at the bottom for emails chats etc? When I touch on it and slide up, I will open the related app. You see the "arrows" around the lock circle? Touching on them will reveal a few other programs.

Another view showing three of the "circles" being activated showing the programs that can be quick launched from lockscreen.

Home screen is very boring. It just has my agenda right smack in the middle so that I can keep track of what I need to do.

Opening my app drawer will reveal this main menu where I have everything all laid out.

Of course, LMT launcher <3

Hi, all,
Need some clarification on Root.

  • unlocked bootloader - but lost the Bravia engine.
  • didn't touch bootloader - but this one cannot install custom ROM or kernel right?

Appreciated much. smile.gif
*
1 is correct, you'll lose bravia engine when u unlock the bootloader
2 there r a few custom rom that can be install on locked bootloader as long as the kernel is the same.

wow nice icon there, how do u get the icon for phone / chrome / msg etc?

U can download the icon pack here bro http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2184436 laugh.gif

if u r using stock launcher u'll need to install Desktop Visualizer from play store and choose those icons as widgets/shortcuts.

if u r using 3rd party launcher like apex, simply press and hold the icon and edit to replace the icon. thumbup.gif

when i use sygic to nagivate, weird thing is it will stop navigating after around 10-15 mins, very inconvenient when driving and dangerous too, sometimes will lose gps signal...

but i didn't face any prob with waze... only prob is it uses mobile data and i dun have unlimited plan sad.gif

i seldom use waze, but i like the interface xcept no junction arrow. does it use a lot of mobile data?
