Screenshot for XPeria ZL 4.3 update.. hope these can give u all clear image

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

my Z takes about 2 hours..

Sounds about normal .. USB output about 500mA right? Z battery about 2xxx mA ?2xxx/500 = min 4hours. In fact, if you are actively using your Z while connected to USB, I think the battery % will even drop eventhough it's charging (output usage > input).

My ZL came with a 1.5A output charger, but I used a 2A one for faster charging. Hope it doesn't burn out the phone.

If use stock charger, the phone should be fully charged within 1-2 hours assuming you're on 20% or less. If longer you might want to have the charger/cable checked. Touch wood it's not the battery/charging parts on the phone that is dead.

Lol 5 hours! Normally 2hours++ using usb charger or dock.
What charger u use?

its normal heating on zl??

and what case u guys using?

maybe for long term...
i always play games while charging...
when check battery health..still good 100% 

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..

nope.. 99% of the time it wont affect your external sd, unless you go format in recovery. lol.

ext_sd, sdcard1 = EXTERNAL CARD

you might get mixed up with certain version of CWM/TWRP or dev go sendiri mod the content (so just make sure)

anyway im on 4.4 now and its really good

when you're on 4.4 (CM11-based), download this dialer and flash in order to get the "yellow-pages" style dialer working

default CM11 dialer they remove this feature

this is a direct AOSP port and it works on stock CM11 (at least for me. )
