phone is always a bit yellow as it tends to provide warmer colours. can you take a picture of the screen? then we can help judge whether it is normal or not

hmm.gif if compared to my Xperia J, it really is unsaturated. I'll try snap a photo.

Over the J's camera it'll be different, looks saturated.

If you see from naked eye it'll be different. Nevermind, I'll send it for check at Sony Center after I'm back from Singapore, bought this phone just to not bring my DSLR there laugh.gif

if naked eye is worse than really need to let them have a check. better to use the warranty period.

It's noticeable after I updated to latest firmware. Wonder if flash back to initial firmware can fix or not..

What color you bought?

White.

QUOTE(ckchan @ Dec 10 2013, 01:47 AM)
Just download the app screen adjuster and increase the blue level. It should reduce the yellow tint.

Tried, doesn't look any better. More like the contrast is too low, causing a white/grey hue as well. So everything looks very washed out.

If that's the case then I think your yellow tint is more serious than others. You should never go beyond level 10. More than that I think will affect your overall screen.

You can go to Sony center and compare with other z1 there and ask for an exchange. I think some forumer here did successfully exchanged their unit

hmm.gif Which are the authorised/main Sony centers at Subang/Shah Alam/Klang area?

I know Setia City Mall and Bukit Tinggi AEON has one but any others?

Did anyone facing typing lagging in What'sapp? At first thought due to stock Swype keyboard, but tried stock also the same.

No issues with that from my end.















Anyone can share how you've rooted your device? I tried many methods, bin4ry's, VRoot, doesn't work sad.gif

Edit : Got my device rooted. Realised I am already on 257. Downgraded back to 534 via Flashtool, lost my apps though. Not too much to worry about that.

Otherwise, rooted! brows.gif OTA update to 257, retain root still. thumbup.gif

Done. But I don't have updates for 4.3 yet. Currently using UK unbranded FTF. doh.gif should've just used some CE one


Downloading the flashable zip from here -----------
removed link cos it seems the xda thread I shared has some issues with flashing. Will update later on.
