Same here. For me, this latest firmware update fixed pretty much everything for my phone. But only after doing a factory reset, that's all.
*
i didnt even do a factory reset. i have to agree the initial kit kat upgrade screwed up the camera and auto loudspeaker switch during incoming calls but the latest updates fixed everything.

will i sell my z1 ? yes....probably bcos i want to upgrade to z2....hehehe

So, have you tried the new Google Camera yet?

Not yet. is it preinstalled or need to install seperately?

Which telco are you using ? try calling your telco to check if there is a problem with their network before deducing its a problem with the phone biggrin.gif

Wah. Got many users here with unique problem..including me after reset, the cam still not satisfy me. Still lagging or hang if switch on from standby mode.

Sometime felt furious if the moment failed to capture  doh.gif

Others than that, all good, batt seem ok, but screen looks more contrast imo. Good.

For overall, kitkat is fail update.
Sony must fix this asap. Especially for their flagship hardware- camera
*
Agree. as a nokia lumia 1520 and note 2 user, i must say even those phones sometimes lagged when you want them to start up. if sony can fix the speed to which the camera launched...it will be awesome

Hmmm I tot every glass screen protector repels dust, water, dirt and fingerprint? And at the same time retaining the HD view and smoothness in touching the screen.

At least that's what my glass sp does and I am loving it 😆

Damn. which brand is it ? when i tested it in the shop, i dont see any fingerprint at all but after install, different story

Sony Smartband - seems like the functions are quite similar to the jawbone but for android. i cant seem to justify why i need this. appreciate current and potential owners to share their point of view

Glass SP - thanks for all the input guys. What brand should i get for my galaxy note 2 ? nillkin ?

previously i heard many good reviews of this phone ( for those who just got it or just by surveying )
but i came across many negative feedbacks from this thread
*
If you look back, the negative feedback is only from a few users. Me ? VERY happy with my Z1.

It seems that the lag problem is solved after performing a hard reset. Will recommend anyone who experience lag issues after updating to do so  biggrin.gif
*
Agreed. after so many bloody updates, i decided to do the hard reset.
Battery life is so much better, recovered tons of memory space on device ( 5gb!) . camera startup issue also gone with 4.4.4 update

(note: mine is AP unit, so just received the kit kat update on sunday)
