Is it really just me or is WeChat really not working? I have been running into issues with it after this new update. It is a problem with WeChat or what? I just can't send messages or even receive sometimes. I have lost count on un-installing and re-installing WeChat over and over again. I have done factory reset as well.

So far no problem with wifi and wechat. The latest updates 4.4.4 even fix the weird symbols in wechat in previous fw

Any comment on the camera after the update?
*
Not sure which update but I feel the camera is improving. Especially the superior auto mode. Previously manual mode ( but all settings set to auto) is a lot better. Now I can't really tell the difference from the manual mode or minor difference. In some shots I took superior auto is even better.

Anyone experiencing minor lag when using the phone after updating to 4.4.4 stock rom? Like when you unlock the phone it will lag for 1-2 seconds, open whatsapp also will need 1-2 seconds. Previously after update the first few days is fine, then suddenly got this lag issue
*
No lag. So far so good

i meant,
why you dint snap using 15.5 mp
its better than 8mp?
*
oh.... previously i did try to snap a few pic using 15.5mp and compare it to 8mp. and i found that 8mp is actually better in terms of sharpness and less noise. this may be due to 8mp have the oversampling thingy. so thereafter i only uses 8mp.

moreover, 15.5mp and 20mp pic, the file size is quite big. 8mp file size more manageable icon_rolleyes.gif

and recently i kinda like the superior auto mode. it's quality have been greatly improved that i hardly notice any difference with the manual mode (of course manual mode i only set everything to auto la).

last time im using flickr uploader app, very easy to manage & upload
can select large multiple pictures, smooth upload
now expired already.

flickr uploader

if want more control, use PC smile.gif

flickr app is dumb app
only can view, cannot manage IMO
*
yeah... i think it's dumb also. only auto sync and can't even create folder... how to manage and organise? rclxub.gif

this uploader only 7 days trial... guess still have to use pc then...

Don't overcharge your phones, people!

This is what I caught yesterday:

The back panel of a Z1 LTE demo unit at Harvey Norman popped open because of the battery which expanded so badly.

Guys, any of you encountering strange behaviour after 4.4.4 update? Mine is Ori set.

I usually press back button fast few times to go back to home screen after what's app chat. This action will auto trigger the camera app. It's very minor for me, but I feel a bit strange.

Anyone having same issue?
*
I still having this problem.

I'm still 50-50 of choosing Z1 and Z2.

1. Display is not an issue for me as i would love privacy; i don't want ppl to see what i'm doing from different angle.

2. Z2 is a little tall for me....quite awkward later on to put it in my hand.

3. Since Z1 is already 4.4.4, i believe the camera quality is as par as Z2 since they share same camera module.

4. Snapdragon 800 and Snapdragon 801 is just slightly different significantly in terms of maximum performance.

Z1 can be purchase from RM1300 (AP) compare to Z2 RM1800 (AP).

What's stopping me is that Z1 after being root, we don't loose the X-Reality and BRAVIA right?
*
What you said is true. But if given the budget, I'll still go for z2. Better screen, better stereo speaker, faster processor, better battery life....

Only advantage z1 has over z2 is somehow it felt more solid in hand. The aluminum frame in z2 felt more plastic... But this is just me la...

Root won't lose x reality or Bravia engine

Why not g3?

QUOTE(tai_digidestany @ Jul 26 2014, 10:20 PM)
Ahhhhh......I see.
But with the Z1 is the "concept baseline" for the next Xperia Zx model, I'll stick to Z1 for now as the only thing that I'm going for is the camera. With rooting, i could save battery life in a great amount; Intel3G apps  whistling.gif  tongue.gif

Already booked Z1 for RM1400; ori set; and I'll pay up the rest and trade in with my Samsung Galaxy S4 Active when my cheque is clear (2 days float); submitted on Friday before 3 p.m; CIMB.

Alright. Enjoy your new gadget then.

Btw what do you mean by Intel3g apps?

Yeah that's convenient. But if you are rooted and have xposed, you can adjust the brightness by sliding on the status bar itself.
