QUOTE(un_id @ May 3 2014, 02:43 PM) Imo this is still the best phone ever since last year till now. Despite of slight superior hardware on note 3, but N3 performs no better than this, it only wins in term of camera and s pen.. Bump bump and keep up this legend thread. How I wish it has a better camera only.. I think I'm gonna buy GpE edition to keep for future.. But wait for further price drop again.  Why don't buy normal ZU and root/flash to GPE?

QUOTE(acbc @ May 3 2014, 03:58 PM) Very hard to flash to GPe. Many bricked their phones doing so. Is it? Never flash Sony phone before so I thought procedure is same with other Android phones.

QUOTE(acbc @ May 3 2014, 04:07 PM) I've been toying that idea on my previous C6802 and found just too risky. I sold it cheap. Just last week, found someone selling the GPe and I bought it. Loving it since. No SOD, bugs and faster due to less weird crap apps. Now, 1 problem, KK disabled SD card write for 3rd party apps. On Sony pure ROM, also same issue but Sony apps can write onto SD card under Settings > Storage. Does GPE have their own file manager? If so, give it a shot.

QUOTE(arctura_kinetic @ May 7 2014, 03:24 PM) Okay noted with thanks. btw, 1 more question. Do I need to put screen protector?? As I know, there is a glass screen protector on it. But still very easy to get scratch. And if remove the glass, the Sony logo will be removed also. So, can I apply screen protector on the glass?? Just apply it, once the shatter film scratch then it will be like that forever. You can't replace shatter film unless change new display which cost 1.2k

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jun 5 2014, 02:01 PM) why dont try Paranoid ROM? you can extremely customize the phone anyway you like. for screen protector, go for glass type ones but glass type for the back is pretty rare. Yeah, I always love PA rom

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jun 5 2014, 07:36 PM) remove the adapter perhaps will do? wondering too. btw, my OEM dock have universal support, so as long Sony maintain the design of the magnetic port, its usable. At least Sony doesn't implement the Apple "original" lightning cable chip detection policy.
