Wanna ask if anyone tried before connect their XZ to SmartWatch 2 and SBH50 simultaneously? meaning both will be active at the same time. Thinking of getting SM2 but if cannot use SBH 50 at the same time, then i might not buy it
*
iinm it wont work cause both are using BT connection..
i tried to hook up my phone to my car radio while connected to sbh20, it dc my sbh20.

Still torn between Z and ZL. sweat.gif What else should I look other than the difference on the first page? What is irda remote and pressure sensor anyway? So far, I'm more to Z... Waterproof sound awesome.

there are pros and cons to the waterproof feature.
do think thoroughly.

What's the con? Well, my phone recently damaged by water. doh.gif And I traveling by boat a lot. Seems a good feature for me. But ironically, my note 2 gets splashed by my shower bath in bath room. It's mean I can take care of my phone while traveling but not at home. doh.gif
*
the con, in a way is if you don't have the charging dock, you will have to open close the flap for charging.
also the sound quality is a bit low, due to the waterproofing of the phone.
i can only think this much so far, but i hope you understand the cons.
if you travel by boat a lot, i then Z is suitable for you.

LG G2 new set is RM 1599 to RM 1699

Xperia ZL new set is 1250 to RM 1350

LG G2 wins ZL in performance, graphic, battery and many more. But if compare to Z1 then Z1 wins alot.

I recommend if you got enough budget then get LG G2 international set but if you don`t have the budget then get ZL and it very worth the penny.

After i read your reply and your question over this thread i don`t recommend you to get Xperia Z.

According to first page;

4. Will Root void my warranty?
    YES - if you unlocked your bootloader.
    NO - if you never unlocked the bootloader as you can un-root anytime

How to root without unlock bootloader? Am I still able to sue Titanium Backup with stock bootloader? I have no plan for custom ROM for now, just need to root.

QUOTE(tenchi0205 @ Jan 2 2014, 08:45 AM)
install a kernel tft (10/3/A/0/423) that work with doomlord rooting method via flashtool, after done that use doomlord tool to root it...

after rooted, use flashtool again to flash back the original kernel tft (currently only have 10.3.1.A.2.67 kernel tft available)

I still waiting for the new 4.3 kernel tft to be available only I update my wife ZL
*
or just use kingo root android. works with locked bootloader.
i havent test on 4.3 yet as just updated this morning.

Google services drain my battery. So I checked, I found these guys inside Google services:

Google Play services - used for play store
Google Services frame - did you meant framework? as in com.google.process.gapps?
Google Account Manager - gmail intergration via google dashboard.
Google Contact sync - contact sync via google dashboard.
Network location - gps oriented apps.

After disable all above, I can't use play store and gmail etc. Have to restore back to factory setting since enabling above service cause problem to my phone. doh.gif

check my fix up there.
you can only disable apps which you can see in the menu such as gplay music, newsstand. other than that are all system apps.

wow..
how much forced did it took for the screen to crack that way??

QUOTE(delsoo @ Jan 14 2014, 06:42 PM)
So the proximity sensor is located at the upper left side of zl?? Am I right?
*
an easy way to detect your proximity sensor is just by having a wechat video call.
randomly hover around the screen until it turns dark.
if so then you are hovering around the proximity sensor.
for z it is on top right.
im not sure about zl.

Hi guys.. I'm a new Xperia ZL user.. How to control LED notifications light?

I already tried LightFlow.. But, still cant control my LED light.. Got idea how to do it?

Thanks.. smile.gif
*
your zl is on 4.3 or still 4.2.2?
if on 4.2.2 you can root and use lightflow efficiently.
if already on 4.3 then too bad.

oh, well if anyone knows any third party cable / adapter please let me know, i could use the dock too if it isn't expensive, the reason behind looking for an adapter or dock, was to not opening the flaps much so it get won't get loosy in the future.

there is the official docking for xz..
see first page.

updating will not void your warranty.
only rooting and unlocking bootloader will.
