I remember someone complain about GPS keep activate and drain the battery. Well you can turn it off at setting->Location Services->Turn off the necessary setting inside.
No sure if someone mentioned it before.
*
yea, it was me...
the problem is GPS appeared to be off under quick settings, at settings there everything is off and greyed out
but battery usage is reporting GPS is running under apps like Waze and Maps

i suspect this is a software issue...mayb it's just me who's experiencing this
did a reset using the red button yesterday, will keep checking n see if it is still re-occuring

but the video shown also dropping the z1 on concrete floor... can say exterior very tough also, but too bad at the end can't switch on...

concrete floor in general are smoother on the surface when compared to tar road (typical malaysian tar road with rocks, uneven surface and potholes on it, not those new tar road)

but yea, inside component loose means KO also nod.gif

buy from any seller but make sure its sealed for ORI.

For AP most of the time not sealed... most important IMEI from the phone and box is same

agreed with the above
unless u are willing to pay RRP

QUOTE(atong @ Nov 20 2013, 10:50 AM)
Really that bad kah? They sound nice on the phone.
I will go to Sony Center in Times Square then.
*
Of course they will sound nice over the phone trying to get you to buy their stuff
Once the business deal is done, that's it

If not mistaken, someone had a hard time with them back in v4
but luckily it was resolved...imagine the time wasted n all doh.gif

I have no problems when I'm actively using the phone, whether surfing in chrome, checking facebook, reading company e-mails, browsing flipboard, etc. Its when I left it alone for about 6+ hours that when I check I saw the 3G line disappear. I thought it was when I move around but even if I left it overnight at home charging, the next morning sometimes no 3G / LTE connection and I have to go airplane mode and back out to see it reappear again.
Brand new sim card. Not cutted. got from maxis.
*
i think someone mentioned it before
it's a telco problem..or more like area/coverage problem tongue.gif

i have no problem with maxis though
mayb cause i'm in areas where coverage is really good

Those anti-fingerprint layer won't stay long ... after a while the finger prints will still show

probably invest in a good microfibre (sold in car accessories shop)...not those that comes free with the SP
