I bought Samsung Galaxy Tab with them last year (Ship from Malaysia). And some spare part last month (Ship from China). Both transaction receive as order.

Also some other transaction few years back, for example: I using the car reverse sensor bought from them.

Finally can test taking underwater photo from my Z1.

There is video too but to big to upload, I have it in my Google+ album only.

So far no sign of water inside, a bit relief. sweat.gif

Hi

Samsung S4 user here ... I come in peace. Plan to get the Z2 when it comes out.

Just would like to check with you guys. Because of the water proofing, there's a flap that protects major ports of the phone (i.e. SD Card, Charger, etc.). Have you all encountered any problems like flaps breaking off or stuff like that given that you'd probably need to remove the flap pretty often to charge and what not.

Have not had good experience with flaps from owning Nokia's years ago.

Appreciate any feedback. Thanks.
*
Since I use my Z1, only open 5 times the USB for charging, after that use the magnetic cable
open 2 - 3 times for microsd and open 2 - 3 times to change the simcard as I change to simcard that can used with LTE. I used since 25th Dec.

There is no need to open everyday. To be honest, Sony flaps quite good, My XPS (2012) still use the original flap.

What is magnetic cable?

search uncle google for xperia magnetic cable

QUOTE(shaynewai @ Mar 10 2014, 09:58 PM)
I'm using magnetic cable.
With 27% battery remaining, and fully charged requires 3hours (with wifi turned on). Is this consider normal?
Or maybe if using dock is way more faster?
*
mine using sony 850mah adapter, from 27 - 100 take around 3 hours too. from around 18% take 3:30 hours.

I already put in box my 1500mah and dock.

- can set auto clear notification when open the notifications panel
- can disable and enable systems icon on top bar
- can transfer certain data from internal to sd card in storage setting
- more RAM used, now only have 300+ free, before i have 500+.
- GPS setting or called Location now have different setting now. can set high, battery saving or device only
- added Printing setting
- have process stat in developer setting

(sorry if some i mention already available in 4.3 that i might not notice before)

i don't like the new GPS setting in kitkat

even if i enabled location (used to be GPS) in the quick settings, still need to go to settings > location > and change to high power mode otherwise app like waze or navigation won't work

very troublesome doh.gif
*
Why? I put the setting to device only, work fine with waze, sygic and navigation even inside the house (near to window).

how long its required for the satellite to lock in ? and won't there be delays ? since you're relying solely on the gps sat

im too used with assisted gps ( gps sat + mobile network + wifi) maybe..... almost instant lock in, anything longer i would feel annoyed
*
open waze, ask me to use high accuracy then open quick setting, i touch the location and timed, take 10 secs for waze to show my location.

remember i inside the house.

Hi All,

Just bought a Sony Xperia-M smile.gif

Would like to ask if there is any apps or widget that allow me to switch on the lights first and then switch on the camera so I can see through the screen without taking the photos?

I know Samsung Assistive lights able to do this but when I download other Torch or LED lights apps into my phone and switch it on, then switch on my camera, it will pop up msg saying "Camera Failed".

Any opinion or advise on the right widget and apps so I can switch on the lights first?

Thank you in advance    smile.gif

What are you try to do, you spam Z1, Z Ultra, Z/ZL, Z1 Compat and Z2 thread asking the same question.

Look at the small apps for flashlight (the bulb logo).

Don't know where to access small apps. read this

Actually that will happen to all Sony Xperia phone, tested on Z1 and ZL. Only one apps can control the camera function at one time. You may stop looking for solution.

I know in Samsung that would work.
