tq its work...but i like screen shoot method before more easy...

right.. previous is much easier.. same as gingerbread style.. ICS is same as 4.2.2.. no SS option in power menu.. need combination of that 2 keys to work out..


QUOTE(mafioso @ Jun 21 2013, 08:01 AM)
How you get the update?

OTA or pc companion? hmm.gif
*
OTA cant get it from my XZL.. but PC companion and SUS can get.. im using SUS.. coz i can make my own FTF after that..

sorry guys, im new to this phone

what is SUS and PCC?  hmm.gif

PCC = Sony PC Companion?
SUS = ?

thanks laugh.gif
*
SUS is Sony Update Service.

temporary based on 1st preview.

1. Transparent trio virtual button and status bar. Widgets on lockscreen.
2. New added. myXperia, PSP DUALSHOCK (Xperia), Daydream, Quicksetting option (Display), Increasing ringing (Sounds), Camera photo preview after capture, magnification gestures (accessibility)
3. Performance does really see significant smooth in app drawer and UI.
4. Superior auto did really improve. Faster focus in my case.. (Need to TEST out soon)
5. Battery life (will tested out few days)

Overall, a good move from SONY. just surpised that ZL get it 1st.. yesterday still wonder when can my XZL get 4.2.2 like XZ leaks rom.. LOL.. biggrin.gif Happy

*Edit* - Founded smtg. Camera active from lockscreen or button cant focus well. only focus very well and correctly when unlock the phone with PIN.

for your point 1.
is it fully or semi?

and toggles are following the standard 4.2.2? drool.gif with 2 screen? 1 for toggles, 1 for notifications?

hmm, maybe XZ got some other optimizations to do first before rolling out? hmm.gif
anyway waiting for the 4.2.2! at least i get to have back the lockscreen widgets now.. got too used to it in my s2 laugh.gif
*
80% transparent in homescreen.. 100% alike with app drawer. for my 20 minutes playing.. feel slightly smooth than previous firmware.. i like the toggles parts.. which i can set auto rotate, auto sync, Stamina directly..

just checked thru pc companion 7am++ this morning before come to work, no update for xz yet cry.gif  cry.gif

photos captured in my room with normal sunlight from window..

QUOTE(mafioso @ Jun 21 2013, 09:03 AM)
according to ChuanHong.. can nod.gif
at least no longer need custom ROM for this. thumbup.gif

hopefully sony understands what most android users want so it'll make us have no reason to use custom rom. laugh.gif

it isnt something u want like that? see screenshot.. i can customise the toggles which i wish to use.

As mentioned in this morning.. Superior auto mode does focus well at this latest firmware for XZL. U can still use touch focus for the actual location u want to focus. Quality of photos seems does improve. I can see clearly the ants in the white flower there.. All these 3 captured in 3 superior auto mode, without any edit..

yeah true oso. good enough for social media n instagram

must make sure hand steady and no shaking to take nice photo in indoor.. myself got a bit shake and big fans over me.. haha.. so objects also moving.. soons u all update and can test again.. temporary, still very satisfy..

QUOTE(droidtrix @ Jun 21 2013, 07:08 PM)
still same , I have done that before... Now look like it Total Bricked... cry.gif  Called the Sony SC few hours ago, they said no warranty card but if got receipt, they can repair or replace if the set beyond repair... I do not nhave any clue since I do have both..
*
sad to hear ur case.. i think is hard bricked ady.. ytd midnight im charges my phone up to 30% like that, and proceed to SUS update, then my house blackout, laptop, handphone all out of battery.. i recharge my XZL with my EDVAN powerbank from 0%. then until this morning 7am get back electric then continue my update.. still works..

hope the SONY service centre can help..

indoor photos really hard to capture.. got fans (objects hard to stay steady), low light.. but i quite satisfy for it.. since camera phone.. not DSLR.. haha.. hopefully sony can less over compressed/process the photos.. files size around 2.5mb or less..

Wifi doesn't consume much battery even u on 24 hours. But seems awake by some apps in background such as account sync. Should got at least 3-4 hours sot in z,zl in single charge with 3G on.

stock rom with 3-4 hours of screen time?
hmmm, well i dont know. i didnt install much apps and its still very empty for now
facebook/dropbox = off sync
google = only selected items are sync-ed
twitter = sync every 4 hours

since im rooted, should i disable auto start up apps? hmm.gif
cuz in my cached process, it has some apps kept in the background..
*
for me is nearly like.. coz i full synced my fb acc, google, whatsapp and others.. disable those unnecessary apps that not useful to u.. for me, i disable twitter, google+, google maps. others all remained.


QUOTE(vostro78 @ Jun 21 2013, 11:31 PM)
i notice that  my zl after update to 4.2.2 the camera auto focus not that fast and accurate compare before version... this makes me recall my previous htc one x after upgrade from ICS to JB... the camera totally cant function well when i want to scan the phewtick's barcode..
*
for my case, it does focus well.. but make sure the distance between the camera and objects dont too near.. make it 5cm+ distance for faster focus..
