As mentioned in bold, I already did that.

Or is there another way that i missed out??

If brand new phone... Factory reset with everything wipe...

I realised that the LED notification doesn't work the minute I sign into my Goggle account. Doesn't matter whether I do a reset including erasing internal memories or not...

Anyone has found a solution to it yet? Or do i have to work for a firmware update to rectify this bug?

Did it auto install apps. Login Google without sync also led error?

switch off stamina mode, then go to dialer, press *#*#service#*#*, then service tests then press led/illumination. Green led will light up follow by blue etc etc.... if it doesnt work, go to service centre/telco to demand a change. if it works, your firmware/some apps is screwing up your LED.

hope this helps...

Can share pic and how u drop it?
I have seen how the Xperia z wAs abused but non it even has a scratch, much less cracked.

I think the back is gorillaglass n front is dragonglass. So doubt it will crack with a drop

The minute u sign in to Google... Wow must be your Google account setting got problem then.

We all already zoomed to auto installed app got problem. So yours is sign in and no sync also got problem?

Hi! all. i played with demo set of Z. noticed the shortcut icons at the top of screen cannot customise like my S3. is there a workaround? can recommend any apps? also when i set the autorotate on, the homescreen doesn't seem to rotate to landscape when i tilt. is it suppose to be like this?

Use Notification Toggle

go to apps and disable default sms client.

handcent still popular ma?>

I was testing out different settings with our XZ, just a random indoor shot, so, don't ask me for photos, try it yourself to see if you come to a same conclusion as me.

Basically, I was playing around with the ISO setting and HDR

ISO100 with HDR --> lowest amount of noise but underexposed
ISO200 with HDR--> slight noise but definitely usable with balance exposure
ISO400 with HDR --> it is usable if there is no cropping involve but noise is notably higher
AutoISO (1000) with HDR --> definitely not usable, period

Conclusion: It seems at least to me the best overall shot with noise and exposure in mind is ISO200 with HDR, for indoor or none-natural lighting scene.

How to change the ISO setting pls...When I click on the ISO icon, I get a menu option to change scenes

Is there Sony PC Companion on Mac OS?

Currently using Sony Bridge for Mac but it doesn't gives me as much control as PC Companion

Nope, there aint any
