I just update the new version and there a other update already??? =.= that fast

wow we just updated to 267 and and now they release 274?
must have been a crucial bug for them to suddenly update.

I just hope they update and improve the camera performance..

well, i hope for some battery improvement for .74 update or reduce the battery usage for most apps which allow the battery to last longer.

Anyway, how long u guys XZ phone will last? Mine, not even last for a day, with wifi on and stamina mode on, play games about 10mins for 4-6times a day and wechat/whatsapp abit.

I too hope the same, its not thay the hardware cameras bad on the xperia z but its the software aspect of it that's lacking.. And it does not shows its true potential..

Hmm that sounds bit short.
Mine can last about 1 and half day, wifi on, watch TV shows for about 2 hours, whatsapp, 9gag browsing several times.
What games you play btw? Some games (well, most of them) are heavy battery drainer.

Wowww, envy with yours! u opened and used quite alot of apps stil it lasted for 1day n a half? >.<
Hmmmm, mine i only play 1 game, from LINE - Pokopang.. thats all with abit wechat and whatsapp only yet it only lasted for like 20hours ++ only.. even if i swipe my screen to touch n checking only also drained quite fast battery

Mine can last from full charge at 8am until 6pm with 30% left. But that without stamina mode, WiFi off, data on, with exemption of whatsapp and Yahoo mails. And few surfing the web using AOSP browser for almost 1 hours cumulatively. Use phone normally with sms less than 50 per day and call for few minutes. Screen brightness set to 20%
Btw, I greenify all my apks, and use battery guru. So I guess its ok. But most of the time if my battery do get lower than 30% I charge it using power case.
maybe I can get more if I on stamina mode and underclock or undervolt my phone, but that's not necessary and seldom used. Unless I forgot to bring my power case or forgot to charge it.

Well another thing I noticed that will affect battery drain is WiFi.
But it is not about phone Wifi, is the wifi station.
If wifi station is not stable, your phone will keep connect and reconnect and scan and etc.
But not only Z will affected, my friends' phone also facing the same problem,
end up I setup a hotspot from lan cable.

EDIT: You can use BetterBatteryStats app to check which app/stuff draining your battery.

Guys, sorry this noobie question. Just wan to ask whether you guys having back glass crack and top flap coming off issues. I wanting to get a XZ but after reading tru so many bad reviews on the Sony's forum regarding on the back glass crack without even dropping it and back glass lifting issues. Abit takut dah.. so wan to know from you guys instead coz I'm really keen on getting the XZ

Been using my xperia z for almost 6 months no sign of crack or top flap issue. Even the camera black spot no problem until now.. I think its depend on how u use ur phone as a PHONE but then again, occasionally spilt and drop can happen, that is why it is important to have a very strong case.

same here. some more been had water spill, dropped with and without casing, so far no issues..

lucky u. But sometimes its better be safe than sorry
Me personally use case all the time, only when at home i use without case

Thanks @ILoveXperia & @jeff10012003 k la, now i can get my hands the XZ now!

Ur welcome

same here. some more better for the flip case.

Guys,
my ZL won't turn on, won't charge and my computer didn't detect if i connected in flash mode
these happen after i flash to .423 firmware (for rooting process)..

i have tried several methods suggested my Xperiablog user such as:
1. plug in charger then press vol up + on button simultaneously & charge 1 hours before turn on << not working!
2. press yellow reset button (behind the sim flap) until vibrate 1 time & 3 times << not working!

can somebody help me? i don't want to lose all the info in my ZL..i have backup all things but the backup files still inside my phone memory (not memory card)

Envy with yrs too, I use even lesser apps than yours. I only play LINE game - Pokopang, left wifi open with stamina mode on, and not much wechat n whatsapp for a bit. And sometimes just open playstore to search for an apps. That’s all but stil from 8am - 12pm, my batt get below 45% already. this is hell for me LOL.

sorry, I think you'll likely lost everything stored in your ZL during your rooting process for .423, you will need to unlock bootloader....should have backed it up to the external card. I think your phone is still stuck in flash mode.
