Hello everyone, just trying out this phone from note 3. Got it 2nd hand so far pretty satisfied with the phone. The signal on this phone in my work area is always on H+ instead of big fat E or G on the samsung so thats always good. A bit of screen yellow but I dont really mind. Mine is still on android 4.3 and so far no crashes and unbecoming behaviour from this phone, so I am not updating it. I dont use the camera too much so dont have any comments . Looking to geT a decent case for it and I like the element case quite a lot ,anyone got any idea where to get it here or must order online from the site?

File size is huge, the .APK file itself may seem small. After installing it, I am required to download another huge 680+MB update. I don't know if that's actually normal because I don't usually play heavy games with my phone. I only play games like Flappy Bird or Threes! for example. But playing this new Spiderman 2 game makes my phone go freaking hot. Hot on both the back and the front/screen.

680MB of additional download is considered moderate already. Games like Plants vs Zombie 2, Angry birds Go , Asphalt 8 all weigh in at 1.1Gig and above. biggrin.gif

Just measured, it takes 8 seconds to open the camera and for the first image to appear on screen (not taking picture ah, only to show what is caught by the viewfinder using the 757 firmware, really taking a long time.

that's really long to start up the camera... mine also takes about 1-2 sec to start up and ready to snap.

try removing your sdcard and set to save images to internal storage. see if it starts faster.

Already using save to internal storave, even disabled geotaging , disabled quick launch also like that really not up to their reputTion hahah.

I think the first time fail is due to usb cable that is loose. It failed a few times even after i use a good cable. Only can after i updated the PC companion by downloading a new copy from sony. Pressed the red button in the SIM tray. Press vol+ and start to let it reinstall the new software . After that today discover mobile data dont have . Will try to reinstall it again tonite and see.

And yes . I think its the .108 update because it is PCCompanion that notify me of this. And i do it on 1st september.

Is this happened after the second 108 update?

False alarm, forgot that Xperia phones need to go set APN - maxis ,bbnet, wap things after a fresh reset.
A quick google for the APN settings solve the 4G LTE issue promtly.
Sorry for the misinformation. blush.gif
