For astro just select device type satelite set top box, n select astro. After that select remote type. Im use type 2.U can test each type which one suitable with ur decoder.

I believe you can format it using your phone, either way it is fine (if you know how to do it)

I know remote works for preset. And yes I haven't come across ZL case with ir cutout.
There are no aircond preset available. The only way is to use the learning mode (which is not working well atm, you can let your device Lear the signal, but it won't re transmit)

If it is using infrared remote, then yes you can use your phone to learn the signal. But it most likely won't be able to retransmit the ir signal...

That's new, I didn't notice there is a brand call astro under stb before this, all the while I have been using the brand Pace type 46 for astro b.yond . Thanks

Rooting wouldn't have much to do with killing the phone unless you actively kill the phone. Whenever I buy a phone, the first thing I would do is root it. Use titanium backup to restore my previous backup and remove unwanted system apps. No problem whatsoever. If I have to send it for warranty, all I have to do is flash it back to stock and done.

Should add: Make sure the screen is at maximum brightness, and you're in a dark room. Then from the service menu, open up the black color screen from the dead pixel test and put your eyes as close as possible to the phone.

It's not good to let it go that low. Best way is to charge it when your phone prompts you to charge it that is when it's below 15%

i see, well if im buying from the store how to be in a dark room?
later bring back they say is "self-damage by user" haha

i see, okay because if i dont like the sony UI i might just flash AOSP rom like i always do.
but few pages back andrew guided me to backup my "TA" files or something like that?

I used to be like you... but nowadays I find stock ROM pretty decent, so I only require root. Once I use MiHome or Nova Launcher, I'm happy already.

Try going to a dark spot maybe? They can't classify dead pixels as user-damage however, I am not sure what their policy is because for some, you need x amount of dead pixels in the screen to be able to claim for warranty. If you have only 1 dead pixel, then it might be hard to argue.

To flash AOSP rom, you'll have to unlock the bootloader of your device. Backing up the "TA" partition mainly "saves" the DRM of the phone. When you unlock the bootloader, you'll lose the bravia engine 2 for album (it still works for videos) and if I am not mistaken, the ability to retrieve song titles from the Walkman app. If you backedup your TA partition before doing so, then once you go back to the stock ROM, and restore the TA partition, your phone would run as the first time you've bought it with the DRM in tact.

To unlock the bootloader, you have to request for a serial key from Sony's site. You have to provide your IMEI number. I am not sure but if Sony do check your imei from their database and founded that you have unlocked your bootloader by requesting for the serial key, they could deny the warranty for your device.

Thanks for the tips. Normal indoor use what? Party?

I still prefered on stock rom rather AOSP rom..

Like HTC! What a pain in the ass. Why do phone companies with the best designs want to do this
Samsung still the most hack-friendly.

okay i will check more on it.

hmm, how do you "request" ? then have you unlocked your bootloader?

You can refer to the guide on unlocking the bootloader here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153261

It involves going into Sony's site and keying in your email address and imei number and sony would send you the serial key to your email address.

I unlocked the bootloader of my device as I couldn't stand the battery life. Flashed a custom kernel and undervolted the phone. After doing that the battery life was bearable but after a few weeks, I decided to let the phone go

Always remember to backup the TA partition before unlocking the bootloader as your DRM keys would be forever gone. You cannot use another user's TA partition as it will brick / kill your phone instantly.

got it! thanks

so if you were to claim back your warranty, just flash all stock and restore TA partition -> walk into sny center + act dumb to claim for warranty?

Yup. That is exactly it.

If they are not strict (I suspect Sony Malaysia is pretty laid back) then you can go ahead and claim for warranty.

In some countries, the Sony Warranty center would be more strict and they will verify if they bootloader of the device has been tampered before by keying in the phone's imei in the database and would see if a serial number has been requested.

unlocking bootloader is not the same as rooting?
or i need to unlock BL in order to root?

sorry coming from samsung, samsung was easy
just flash custom kernel and you're done.

No. Rooting is rooting.

Unlocking bootloader allows you to install custom kernel , AOSP ROMs and developer roms (like the current 4.2.2 ROM)

If you don't unlock the bootloader, you are limited to be able to flash only stock based roms.
