does this means losing root again? >< can we keep root using voodoo OTA rootkeeper? XD
edit: seems like some said vRoot is working after update.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 11 2013, 12:20 PM) Some people never know how to generate the issue. As long you not un-tick that Optimize Backlight, such issue won't appear. But silly SONY did that stupid feature to downgrade screen quality only. * I know one of the user here comment before never even had SOD in .510 and do video, but his ROM had modified certain, so that is exclude. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...032&postcount=9why not give his solution a try?

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 11 2013, 12:32 PM) No need. It is useless. I did before in .510, same one, as long as u untick that, the issue will come find you. ahh...anyways, my lucky unit no get SOD after .526 update too...and seems like thrs also quite a number of peep no face the issue...could it be hardware issue instead of firmware? particularly the screen?

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 11 2013, 01:15 PM) If not remember wrong, you the one not facing such issue even at .510 right? And you did something in your phone where it is encrypted and need twice reboot. Probably that twice reboot solved it. i reflashed my ROM due to the fact tht i can't disable screen lock with my ROM encrypted leaving encrypted ROM out of the question as part of the prevention. now my rom is not encrypted and SOD still not reproduced even with the claimed steps. try do a quick survey here and XDA to see how many have this SOD issue and how many didn't have this issue n maybe can see what went wrong? as of this moment, my ROM is totally fresh and rooted via vRoot and no further customization is done, yet (will restore all apps after office hours)

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Sep 11 2013, 04:17 PM) You seen the sample I snap right, that is a huge different. They is a lot visual & animation changes from .475 to .510, no changes from .510 to .526 Maybe slightly better when optimize tick, but not obvious. Re-attached  Without | With Optimize Backlight tick honestly, i think i'm along with the without optimize backlight tick of urs regardless of it ticks or not...what my optimize backlight does is just dimming my backlight according to lighting condition (like auto brightness but for backlight) i'll go with uncle's remarks..high chance ur device got a different source for screen panel. y not when SOD happens, go to the service center n tell for claiming warranty? not under screen but under firmware issue..see if they could come out with a fix

QUOTE(un_id @ Sep 12 2013, 03:54 PM) i don't think so, 2gb is still sufficient.. in my previous HTC One, i may use the fanciest launcher, with plenty widgets always on the multiple home screen, its all running smooth, and the RAM never completely hogged.. but for XZU, honestly the stock ROM is not that smooth… some jerking sometime.. oh well… but i never be in serious condition in which it become really lag.. i think for some user, there are some apps thats hogging the RAM.. especially those free apps, be careful yes 2GB is sufficient...memory hog usually happen when there's an app with malicious service etc running in background.  my RAM usage is quite ok but can't say much yet coz i just wiped it a couple of days before updating

QUOTE(dinokun @ Sep 12 2013, 04:11 PM) does lte impact very much on the phone performance? only surfing rite? but i am now on 1 gb data plan, so i guess i no need lte? LTE = faster data speed = faster battery drain when using. If LTE was never on your monthly budget and not planning to have it in near future, then u have ntg to worry bout using HSPA+ models. I still feel having LTE is not worth the money yet in Malaysia. This post has been edited by thatisazam: Sep 12 2013, 04:16 PM

QUOTE(joytest @ Sep 12 2013, 05:04 PM) I would venture to say that I rarely hear of people having phones spoiled from rainsoak (at least in MY). It seems that with the advent of so called "waterproof" devices, people have started adopting a more callous attitude towards care of their devices, thus leading to increased incidents of water damage. I've seen more of people dropping their phones in the SEA (ffs, don't go to the beach without protection), in buckets, rivers and accidental spills. Whatever the case, water and electronics never mix. Waterproof phones should merely be treated as an insurance policy rather than tempt fate with callous use. apparently, i use the rainsoak example due to fact had my Xperia Mini had its fairshare of waterdamage as I was riding motorbike in heavy rain (due to unfortunate shelter-less event) back then. Thought tht was my last Sony phone but who knows, they actually came out with the water resist design. and yeah gotta agree with tht feature being an insurance-only although I randomly dip my XZU in bowl of water jz to amaze the colleagues XD
