Yippie, got my white Z ultra lte (AP set)
Running 4.2.2. Played around, disabled a bunch of services/apps. Not bad, quite stock actually.. don't feel the need to flash CM rom yet. The phone is naked now besides cap ayam front screen protector. Need to hunt for back screen protector and magnetic cable for charging. More money fly.... |

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jul 15 2014, 07:21 PM) refer here. Cool. I will have time to consider if I want to thicken the device both side by additional 0.3mm.if you cant read chinese, click "索尼Z XL39H前后贴0.3" i will get back to you for the shipping and cost. Does adding the glass help reinforce the screen when drop? Perhaps lower chance to crack the screen? BTW does anyone know the if the z ultra can screen mirror 1080p 60hz via MHL? |

QUOTE(kueh karas @ Jul 16 2014, 04:55 PM) Guys, Ouch... can buy another z ultra ap set already.If any of you wonder, how much to replace the front glass screen trough SONY service center - Rm950. more than half of the price when i bought this phone.. demmm I wonder would it be alot cheaper if non sony service center... those normal hp repair shop. BTW guys... Im on 4.4.4 now. The optimize backlight option is missing? Does this means it is on by default? |

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jul 16 2014, 06:14 PM) Yeah I unticked that already. I think pre-4.3 stock rom had an optimize backlight option in addition to that one in settings->display. Now its gone.Not sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me but seems like the phone is automatically adjusting the dark colors/sharpness for me as I surf net, watch movie, move around the stock launcher.... Owh and I had x-reality off too. |

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jul 19 2014, 10:23 AM) sorry for double post. Will wait for your review then cyloh mR.hyDE afif95 izzat95 for the tempered glass, will charge you guys for RM120, front and back. if interested, please drop me a PM. thanks. EDIT : please wait for my personal review about the glass 1st. i ordered mine and need to wait for test. I got a front and back clear sp for RM25. So far so good, no complains. Now my ultra running CM rom. Smooth and good. However earlier i dropped by klcc sony center and tried their magnetic dock. Doesnt charge at all. Only works for stock rom i guess. That or my unit got problem. |

So I'm ordering a cheap magnetic charger to test first. If it works then I might splurge on a DK30. Hopefully not my phone problem because claiming warranty for AP phone will be headache for me. Not to mention relocking the bootloader and reflashing stock firmware takes time. |

QUOTE(raymondtong94 @ Jul 22 2014, 10:23 AM) if flashed doom's kernel, i might get nearly 35k. doomkernel is only for stock rom or roms based on stock right?but if i used doom's kernel, i have to ditch X-Reality because X-Reality dont work on custom kernels. X-Reality on Z Ultra is the best if compared to Z2. when he release for the lastest rom .108 then i might give it a go for fun.... i'm still looking for a way to underclock the snapdragon. tried using setcpu to lower clockspeed but turns out it will only set for the first core. the rest of the cores still running up to 2.2ghz |
