It's not the aluminium button I'm concerned about; it's the spring and rubber seal beneath it. With my locksceen widget and tap to wake, I will not need to use the power button anymore.

So far I've installed smart call handling, calendar, messaging, sketch, notes and clock from the Z2 port with no issues. I like the smart call handling very much.

I got a question though. How can I replace my stock Chinese font without changing my English font? I tried one of those app on the play store. It replaced my stock English fonts too.

Don't you worry. I have used Xperia Arc for 3.5 years. The power button is the same as this, flimsy. Feels like it want to break but until today, still no problem. Works like new.

Upgraded to 4.4. No problem on my side but why the same amount of RAM? I thought Kit Kat was supposed to run slimmer?

Manual, 8mp, ISO go 400 and a pair of steady hand.
If still blur, proceed to ISo 800 but dun expect pic are sharp since Sony has over processing algorithm in their phone.

eg
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


Very hard to tell the difference on faraway but close up is amazing.

They better be. I'm suffering from it as well. Sometimes it works for a few calls after I restart the phones and then it will be back to the earphone speaker.

Earlier, the screen is not responding to touches. It feels like it touches itself. Plus the screen is shimmering like it is going to die out. I can't even switch the phone off...

Nothing can be done at all. Finally I give the screen a thorough. wipe and it is back to normal. Whew...talking about almost freaking out just now..

I'm glad is nothing cause I really take extreme good care of it.

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.
*
Yes, it is very hot. But I don't think should be a problem. It will auto shutdown if it is too hot.

thanks for the input guys. I don't have the budget to get a Z2 tbh. sad.gif

what a shame, looks like I have to cross out the Z1 out of my list. This actually leaves me without any option hahahh, except probably the Z1 Compact within my RM1.5k budget.

Z1 should be ok. The next update is coming soon and if it's a real fix than its good.

The Office Suite pro for Excel is really good. The formula pasting works like desktop. Only problem is it looks like it can't be updated. Anyway only time will tell if the key works for the next upgrade.

My bad, Office Suite Pro looks like a lifetime license. I can't update from Play but can do it from the app itself.

DirectD is very reputable, they sell both AP and Ori. Ask from them  smile.gif

All is the same

Yup, I agree. If you get Ori, ask for a sealed box. Like elsewhere, they will let you inspect the seal and will open it in front of you.

Hey guys. The Album showed up in my updates earlier but due to cache clearing I accidentally uninstall all updates and now I can't update to the latest version of Album. Any ideas?

If thats the case I think you better send in for warranty claim. Yours ori right?

Edit: have u inserted your sim card and power on and leave it for some time? On my recent trip overseas, I notice that Z1 takes a longer time to change to roaming when I reach other country. When I reach back malaysia, it too again takes a long time to lock back to maxis network. More than 5 minutes and I was a bit worried then... But eventually it did connect back to the network.

I'm glad we have Kitkat. But I'm not used to doing another step for all my data to transfer to SD each time just because all apps now can't ride to SD.
