i would say almost at the same time.. typing sound was different with previous..

After some time of playing around on my ZL 4.3 build, here is what i want to conclude here:

1. Advantages/Improvement
-Option to add One-hand typing
- Camera features like Z1 in 4.2.2, which got AR effects, MotionShot, Social Live and others.
- Camera burst shot increase the resolution in high speed. Previous is around 1MP now is on 9MP. which is great.
- Small apps can be open several apps at the same time.
- Theme can be additional download in playstore.
- Brightness toggle now is appear in bar mode. Can increase/decrease by own preference. Previous if press it, will only get 100% or 25% brightness. If need set 50% need enter settings and adjust
- Manual mode seems improve quality of photo. Not so significant photo processing in my attempts.. Superior auto and scene mode was still processing the photo and make it grainier..
- Self timer in camera settings will present the options once u choose. E.g. Set 10 seconds for self capture, after capture was still 10 seconds on next capture.. no need always reset again..
- Performance in overall seems smooth.. not much complaints.. I won't do benchmarks, coz i doesn't believe it in real practices.. just wont lag.. Temporary all function are works nicely..
- Photo widgets changed newer.

2. Disadvantages:
- Capture image while in video recording was still in 1MP only. which not so good for me. Superior auto was fixed on 9MP which cant be adjust by users.
- Burst mode only can be actived in superior auto mode
- Backup data in 4.2.2 was cannot be used in 4.3.. Beware of it.
- No screenshot option in power menu

1. The backup like msg, call log, bookmarks in browser and others by the sony stock backup & restore apps wont works. not about the google backup..

2. yes.. brightness toggles drag left-right.. please check my screenshot on above..

im using stock msg apps. hmm, these im not sure.. haha.. maybe u can try it out in future..

yaya.. just now only apply it in hangout.. hahaha.. coz saw can active it

i notice my ZL battery drain faster.. but i found out its about the xperia with facebook sync.. cancel the sync then will feel ok ady.. since i do clean flash.. so everythings was still in new.. need some time to monitor it

LOL.. that is the official sony tester build 4.3 ROM. so its not 3rd party.. consumers build are 99% same i believe, the only 1% will be bug fixes if there are any. Wont lost the BE since we no need to unlock our phone bootloader.. it just download the FTF and flash like normal..

I repeated, its Tester build. So in future, we can flash back to android 4.2.2 fw.67 MY, and update to official consumer build when its rolled out.. soon i think will get the update from Sony in coming weeks.

**temporary didnt found any problematic bug. just 1 small things but didnt affect our daily usage at all.. should say 99% is work right now.. i love this 4.3 update.. wondering the 4.4 update in future..

hmm.. actually i just wish sony can fully utilised the current sony things.. small apps, additional theme, PSM, can be expanded more.. hopefully AR effect in camera can be expand more as well..


Social live feel lag in picture..

oo.. when i try install apk like LINE AR effects, the words was located a little bit upper than usual..

Camera photo size 13MP around 3mb each now..

yeah.. all can use.. but only 1MP.. LINE AR effect by taiwanese is 2MP.. these will ony nice in daylight situation.. indoor, picture quality very bad..

ok.. since phone use to call+sms, extra fb,surfing and check mail frequently only..

not recommend to flash android 4.3 tester build right now.. hope u all stay back in android 4.2.2 first..

Found something bad.. dont ask why.. just dont flash it.. wait officially 1..

Regards,

its hard brick my phone now.. LOL

i have no idea whats happen.. but i think not good to try it.. i need find sony service centre if i still cant fix it by tonight..

facing sudden death right now.. hmm.. thinking how to fix it.. monday service centre only open then me only go visit it if still like that.. hahaha.. hv to claim warranty then.. now back to fw.67 ady

haha.. i dunno.. maybe its my battery problem.. sudden death issue.. i flashed back to .67 fw ady..

if i unplugged charger, my phone will auto turned off..

ya.. LOL.. meet sudden death issue.. battery in 9x%.. but if unplugged, after 5minutes turned off..

i backup everything ady.. so its ok..
