you can try using power socket USB adapter, or any powerbank, or hi-powered PC USB port
normal port just won't work, low Ampere...unless of course, you can combine 2 usb port into 1....

btw, haven't tried car charger for magnetic charging...anyone else tried?

Hey, the magnetic dock, have to plug to a power socket USB adapter or normal PC USB slot?

Tried PC USB slot, but no response...

But my el-cheapo Panasonic S1 produce better indoor shots than the Z1. I suspect Sony need to tweak the firmware first.

admin, new Z1 black user here. Pls add me. thanks

I've compared my Z1 screen with my Z. The famous yellow/warm hue of the screen is evidently there and is pretty bad. white is nowhere near white at all.

Did anyone tried exchanging with Sony Malaysia or are all stock is the same now?

Loving my Z1 now, just wondering if I can do anything with the screen now that the white balance option has been removed.

In addition, any way to change the white colour background in settings to black? Prefer the black hehe

i have opened around 10-13units of newly sealed z1, all got same yellowish tint, some even worse, newer batch = more yellowish.
maybe updating future firmware can solve this, unless u wanna buy the whiter screen but demo unit like they offered me lol.
but using it few days, felt that the screen got slightly whiter d, maybe its just me?

There are 3 main factors affect image quality - Sensor, Lens and Imaging processor.

It is image processing. Not imaging processor.
Firmware cannot fix yellowish screen. If firmware tune yellow screen to white, then white screen will become what color?

Conclusion:-
Yellow screen must be accepted by you before buying. Z1 is yellow screen. You have to accept that.

why some units have the whiter screen?

maybe really cant get the white screen, but if u add blue in it, will give u a slightly whiter feeling.
like my previous phone, i flash other kernel, gave me a diff color, yellow white > blueish white.

I read somewhere else that u just use it overtime then the yellow tint will go away.
This yellow tint issue happen others flatship phone too.

Yellow tint will go away one.. it just need times and some heat i guess.. its common on ipad and iphone too..

Yes... Yellow tint will go away due to glue... Yellowish panel... Won`t unless you change to differwnt panel... Z1 have yellowish panel... Not yellow tint... Yellow tint, you will see a yellow spot in some area on your screen.

Won't la. My yellowish iPhone is still yellowish after 3 years.
Read is not same as real life event. LOL
Really one. My iPhone 4 and iPad 2 still yellowish until now.
Finally someone making sense here.

I don't think we should cheat people into buying Z1 thinking yellowish screen will go away.

Yellowish is yellowish. Its not a problem. I'm still very satisfied with my iPhone 4 and iPad 2. I still using until now.  And use it actively.

no point arguing here.. time will prove but the saying that we try to cheat ppl on buying Z1 is just kinda too over..
