Can anyone explain why there is extra 2 hole there ? Definitely the first hole at the right for camera and flash... what about other 2 ?  sad.gif Please help to explain...  hmm.gif
*
1 is for camera and flash
1 is for IR (Japan market if not mistaken)
1 is for small opening at the back of our phone... you will see it top middle... if not mistaken...

True, same goes to me... If i off the screen at 60%, it remains there until next morning or until i start to use again.... Never tested for a very long period, but for 8 hours the battery didnt drain even 1% when the phone was locked.

Only thing i realised was... battery drains faster when using data connection but when i use wifi, the battery life is good..
*
battery drains faster when using data connection compared to wifi... this happens to all phone.

yes ar ??? but my previous ninetology phone was performing very well when i first bought... my data connection will be on for 10 hours and the battery life still remain at 50-60%. Same usage as my current phone now... watsapp, fb, email and browsing.. after 3-4 months of usage, the performance and battery begin to drop cry.gif
Dunno la, no matter what.. i love my Z1 SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much now!
*
all my phone have same performance... but if you compare the drain between data and wifi, data drain battery much faster. smile.gif

Yeah, I bought my phone in Russia and dock isn't included. Thankfully it's cheap. Rm 50 only. In Malaysia it's Rm150 if not mistaken thumbup.gif
Where are you guys buying it from? I might just remove the magnetic cable from my dock. Don't really see the point of charging through the dock  sweat.gif
*
Reason for mw to charge through magnetic cable.... Is do not want to sacrifice the flap from wear and tear... If it's becoming loose, the water might get into the phone from the usb port.

damn did the flap come loose? is it possible they are not as watertight as before? or maybe raised glass problem like XZ?  hmm.gif
*
I am confident that the flap tight... Normally I used magnetic cablle to charge... I've opened all the flap... But no water trace... I'm suspecting the water sip through the power button.

The flaps are not so easily spoilt unless you have king kong fingers bro. Charging through dock / magnetic cable is really too slow for my liking. And I'm feeling sorry for your phone.
Did you submerge it into the water?
The flaps are indeed easy to come off, as shown in Josh Vergara's drop test. So I'm really sceptical if the flaps are wil deteorate that much due to wear and tear.
*
Yup... I've submerge into the water but not more than 1m and not more then 30 minutes... Now the display can be turn on again but it not captur my touch doh.gif ... Where should I send for warranty... KLCC or other place for fast repair (if they have the sparE part)?

I havent dip my phone into water yet... some in fb says there is no warranty claim if water damage...

sent my Z1 at Plaza Berjaya... they mentioned might took 1-2 weeks as they need to get from Sony for warranty claims... they might be replace my unit with new unit / repair the phone or I need to pay based on Sony Malaysia feedback.

They loaned me Xperia X10 temporarily... smile.gif at least I have a basic phone that enable me to whatsapp, fb and minor surfing. biggrin.gif

Yellow spot is might be defect but yellow hue is not a defect since it's part of the panel.

If you saying yellow hue is not a defect, then all phone should have similar hue.

If you buy 2 phone, same brand, same model, same factory but with different screen hue, what do you think?
*
it might be using different panel... and it happens to Z1 production.... Z1 is well known using different panel.... unless you are the only few having different hue which mostly the hue is totally off... and not slightly.

Actually Nokia also does give a replacement phone and when i sent in my Lumia 920 earlier this year, they loaned me a temp phone even for just 2-3 days while they changed my screen. smile.gif

then... maybe the fella at the counter doesn't want to loan me one... biggrin.gif
