Z1 should b this month too since already get certified by PTCRB

wonder if there is any rooting tool for 4.3 this time. if not have to wait for OTA again, which could take additional 2 weeks time.

How do i check on Yellowish Screen ? If there any app available ?
*
not that i know of. so far most of us only do side-by-side comparison with other devices.

but some are reported to be so serious that the yellowish screen is noticeable even without side-by-side comparison.

ok thanks, after reach home and put in docker, it start charge and I able to on it.
Seem that letting the phone to download thing for 6-7 hours will drain the battery from 100% into low % until I cannot on the phone, next time I will not let it download when I sleep.
*
Alright. Glad to hear your phone is Ok

i kinda hope all they have is Honami mini.  whistling.gif

most probably it will be the z1 mini la. so far no other leaked info on any z1 refresh model right? moreover, i think sony should come out with ZU replacement rather than z1 replacement first.

aiyoo...sounds like a lot of job. not backup anything yet but i guess i can try since i already started my long  offweek.
then maybe try the xda root method.

or can i just unroot from the superuser thing & try the xda method instead b4 doing factory reset?
*
have u managed to do the OTA update yet? found this in xda, might be the cause of your problem

Flash .534
The root
Then update (do not install recover yet, it breaks OTA update )
After root, then update OTA
Then install recovery

I just let the ppstream to download the 1gb movie while I sleep.
I can't believe with that only, it can drain my battery from 100 to less than 10%(I got on the stamina mode) and I only using wifi not mobile data.
*
well, stamina mode will have no effect here as your phone is kept running and not in sleep mode

I though download thing will only drain a few.
Then when you all let it download large file, you all will put in in docker to charge at that same time?
*
never download such big file with my phone b4 tongue.gif

usually i'll use my laptop if need to download such big file

but if your internet speed is good, shouldn't take too long to download 1gb also
i think your ppstream apps still keep running even after the download is completed

a AP white z1 here..
question bout screen spec z1 compare to note3..
which 1 better.. 1 lcd and 1 led rite?
*
both have their pros and cons bro. note3 using OLED to be exact

in general,
OLED - better contrast, deeper black. but OLED are said to have a certain lifespan. and colour tends to be on the more saturated side

LCD - usually colours will be more natural.

still like to know more? Google is your best friend

yup that's why i don't think there will be a Z1 replacement for CES.. if it is it will be all over the internet by now.
*
Z1 spec still top of the line now. I think Sony no need to rush out its replacement so soon.

And yes, Sony's been having a hard time keeping its product a secret b4 launch. So if there's any z1 replacement on CES, I'm sure we'll hear about it already.

i am having the problem. ota failed to update.
how to check if i have recovery installed?
phone just rooted yesterday since purchased.
*
The recovery need to be installed manually via pc.

If you fail to update ota, suggest to check the following first:
- did you uninstall any system apps? If yes, reinstall back the system apps.
- did u have recovery installed? May need to remove the recovery of yes.

If you meet the above criteria but still cannot update via ota, I will suggest do a factory reset and try the ota.

If still cannot, flash the original rom, root and then ota without any apps install

tq,bro for the detailed reply.
did all but still unable.
perhaps i flashed back the ori rom is hk version? as i cant find .534 my rom at xda.

btw, after root need to install super su enable survival mode to keep the root intact after ota, right?
*
i myself flashed the hk .534 rom. after that straight away root and then OTA update. no problem at all.

but i did all these without installing any apps, without changing superuser, and without recovery.

Hello all, is it good time to get the Z1 now? With the rumors about possible flagship models and whatnot? doh.gif
Considering to switch from iPhone 4 to this, wanted more than that haha!

Thanks in advance!
*
all are rumours as of now and no solid information
Z1s are said to be the Z1 refresh, but no information at all as to what aspect is upgraded. previously it's said to be an operator exclusive only device. really not much information on this

to wait or not, up to u

buy early, enjoy early
buy late, save some bucks

QUOTE(hikashi @ Dec 16 2013, 10:57 AM)
not much different from z1 then.
*
yeah... it's called z1 refresh.

just like
ip3g vs 3gs
ip4 vs 4s
ip5 vs 5s

right now i can't think of any reason for current z1 owner to upgrade to z1s if it's true

processor? s800 is already the best processor currently. maybe it can be clock higher at 2.3/2,4/2.5 GHz... but even so in reality it'll be hardly noticeable. S805 maybe will really increase the performance. but by what margin?

screen? if using ips screen then it'll be good. but to me still not a strong reason to upgrade as the main diff is the viewing angle nia...

camera? in terms of hardware, z1 camera already have one of the best spec. what it really needs is the proper software to optimise its performance. and i doubt z1s will have better camera spec at the moment.

built & design? so far looks the same

early rumours says it is the international model name for z1 mini. but latest rumours says it's not z1 mini but is a z1 refresh model.
