Nice, tq for the opinions ^^
will go hunting in lowyat during raya i guess..

Btw ap sets, what are the price for it these days?
*
They rarely sell ap sets nowadays cause of the warranty benefit, its very expensive to fix a smartphone (especially screen). Ori set could set you back roughly on 1k +-

So far no. But I experience lagging while my phone is on the charging dock.

problem solved after removing and placing back the battery.. weird. Generally after the update to 4.4.2, the phone was slower than before

Went to Sony Centre last night. They say it's covered but will take a few weeks. Recommend to take to a place at Imbi.They can do it immediately also for free.

i dont think sony will release a true succesor since z3 compact is there to fill the midrange void.

Well lets hope for the best and this phone still serve more than i need. Done are the days of chasing new models, i guess people do grow old cool2.gif

I went to a farm where data connection sucks last time after update to 4.4.2 and by 6 pm my battery was 25%.
Yesterday I went again with 4.4.4, at 6 pm my battery was still 63%. So significant improvement. Btw my Google Play services not running.

If you turn off data it will not run... I've been doing that, manages to last me the whole day

Data was on. The test was that the battery lasts longer with 4.4.4 while trying to find data signal.

Hi Guys, my ZR got 2 problems,

1. malfunction of sliding down the notification of phone, have to try many times only work..

2. There is a ghost touch, after consult with xperia technical support on my problem and my warranty just ended 20 days ago sad.gif
So would it be software problem or mostly hardware problem? and they suggest me to reset to factory version and see still got this problem, so do i need to update to 4.4.4? or later?
Sony will charge me 600++ to replace the sparepart and outside only 300.
Therefore better get a new phone?haha..
*
try updating and resetting your phone. sometimes mine also suddenly cant detect any touch, but after lock/unlock screen or activating camera from lock screen via shutter button and back again will make the screen back to normal

Just reset to factory setting and the problem still occur...

so i am going to survey a new phone already and sad to say no sony for next phone... fix it outside at least 300 while sony service center charge me 600++.

Perhaps maybe previously when they replaced me a new phone because of water proof, they gave me a lousy phone? seem no one at here got this problem?

Thanks.

seems you got a bad apple.. good luck in your new venture then

Argh same thing happen to me last weekend!  mad.gif  Took it to swiming pool a few times already in several months, works fine but then at the last time after we finish swimming and arrived home, suddenly when I took out my phone from my bag the screen was flickering and half of it already dark! I was surprised because it was fine even after we finish  swimmming that day. I then immediately turn it off then try to dry it out overnight (open cover, battery, flaps) and try to hairdry also but the screen compeltely gone already. Just today I called the service center and they say cannot repair so can only exchange with new phone. That means I'd loose all the data inside it!  mad.gif  Very dissapointed now with this phone and will never trust any waterproof phone anymore.

Is there a way to get the data back from the phone?? Because the phone itself actually still works, just the screen dead. Apprecaite any help on this.

It seems that the connection holding the screen to phone seeps water in.. did you dive with your phone? THey did say not to use in under pressure

I did that, and I think is the dirt, it's above the display layer.  Sending to service center is very troublesome for me. And the waiting time to get back device is killing me.  Any idea any way else can fix that?

Send to your nearest phone shop and void your warranty and risk making it non-waterproof. So, if warranty still valid, its best to send for warranty. Its unlucky you got this problem after claiming warranty though
