I guess I have to use 2 hand for this phone most of the time from now on. The getting sore painful on the joint of my thumb, for stretching my thumb using this phone one hand. I guess apple is right about one hand use. (Well, at least for me)

My colleague's set also have this issue.  She tried browsing with wifi at home for 20 minutes, and it started to feel warm sad.gif  she had a Nillkin hardcase on, but I don't think that will affect it, right?  How about you, any casing?

I'm using Dolphin Browser atm, tried Firefox and Opera, still prefer dolphin. would have use Chrome if it is not so HOT, haha

Why?chrome very power hungry? I always use chrome only :-P
*
Chrome heats up the phone quickly, and that is likely due to CPU usage and will also likely lead to battery drain at a faster rate.

Anyone with ZL please check the ir-remote learning feature. apparently quite a number of ZL users are having problem with it, the phone claim that it has learn the signal, but in the end the signal can't be re transmit.

http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/126050?tstart=0

I tried mine, same problem.

The sony support staff in the thread says that it is hardware problem. However I still believe it is software related, as the preset ir signal is working perfectly.

Using the learning feature or just the preset signal that comes with the phone?

If it is preset, mine also no problem. The problem is the learning feature, where it can learn, but cannot re-transmit.

I try my sister one, can learn for my Samsung TV set with different function but... cannot learn for Astro box set.

After learning complete, have you tried to use it?

mine also can learn, but cannot re transmit after complete learning.

Can use straight away 64GB micro sd if i buy let say sandisk?

for now, you have to insert it to the phone and format it to FAT32. 64gb comes in default in exFAT format.

official exFAT support should be coming soon (same as sony's tablet line)

No need online registration. U can call to sony service centre and ask whether ur set is genuine. By giving I mei number.

Ir port is located at beside power button a bit.. I have tested mine yesterday after bought.. Can remote my tv, radio.. Even old model, do have preset setting already. But I've tried for air conditioner by manual setting with learned signal. Which çant function. I do read some article seem zl software problem and sony have put this in investigation already. For future update maybe will solve it.. Hopefully.

Alright, another ZL user with same problem. Sony online forum support team claim it is hardware problem and ask us to go claim warranty sweat.gif rclxub.gif

I still believe it is software related instead of hardware, since the preset works perfectly

cham, my home dont have high end LCV Tv, any other way i can tested it? i am ZL user  sweat.gif

and an another question, old battery i heard need to use until <5% then only can go charge to pro long the life span, how about the current somartphone battery (ZL), does this thing still apply?
*
no need high end LCD TV to test. anything with remote control (IR) can be tested. you can try the preset mode by selecting the category and brand of your product.

There are plenty of preset available.

however if it is not available, you're suppose to be able to program it by using the learning feature (which is not working well atm)

Thats mean format to fat32 using pc?

Remote works for my tv n astro.but need to take out soft case.for aircond,which device type need to select?
*
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...

btw, any ZL C6502 owner with locked bootloader on official 4.2.2 tried to root using the doomlord method? saw a C6502 user successfully rooted, but with lock bootloader.

I wonder if it is the same for locked bootloader.

Some of the improvement & features that I like about 4.2.2 on ZL
1. Customisable quick settings on slide down notification window
2. Official ps3 ds3 wireless support
3. ExFAT support for MicroSDXC

There is also Daydream (in Settings, Display) which is supposed to work when docked or charging.

I can't get it to work though.

Like I said, improvement and features I like. Daydream is not one of them

Is it just me or charging on 4.2.2 is ultra quick? I just plugged it few minutes ago at 44% and now its at 63%? I'm surprised
*
Or another way to look at it is 4.2.2 drain less battery during standby, thus faster charging time. It feels that way for me
