The shatter proof sp...

doubt so it is. the shatter proof sheet doesn't reach that area. it's the ear piece grill I'm talking about.

Cup of tea anyone?

I found it very effective to clean the screen from fingerprints and grease

nice screen protectors and services

went to jimmy to get my screen protector today. really good and friendly service. somemore the waiting area got aircon and tv. shiok. definitely recommend him.

As recommended by members of hwz, I went to Jimmy's shop for screen protectors. 100% agreed that Jimmy is a helpful and friendly person to deal with. I'm 100% satisfied with the service I received and would strongly recommend others to try his service. Keep up the good work Jimmy.

My Xperia 3G speed is very slow but there is no issue when i use the same sim card on another phone. Wifi is working fine.
Have anyone encounter this issue too?

After looking at the XZ for sometime i found something amiss, looks like the ear piece grill (above the SONY logo) is slighlty slanted. It's extremely slight but it's something I can tell. I asked my colleague who just got his set to check and after really looking hard he did notice that too.

Is this something you guys are observing on your sets as well ?

which part slant? u mean the inner hole?

but still i strongly recommend wireless headphone
if Mw600 i think approx 80+



For all users of Z, is it me ?or all sets when vibrate the tone of vibration is special one?
i could feel its long session of really Zzzzzzzzz Zzzzzzzzz one

is it normal?
no i am not joking its really like a very cool ZZZzzzz ZZzzzzz sound


is it normal for this ah?

Did you choose the network settings to WCDMA/GSM instead of the LTE/WCDMA/GSM?

 

[yhw22]

Anyone met the issue of "Google Voice Typing" always become enabled even if you have disabled it in options?

Question
for display screen brightness
what u guys using at?

i am using at approx 60-70% brightness with Adapt to lighting conditions checked (same as per XperiaV)


i find it funny, how come adapt to lighting conditions if uncheck will brighten up the display furiously.(same as per Xperia V)

What does it really do?any one knows?


i so far using it at Adapt to lighting conditions, dimmer , but i think it enhance battery life alot if not wrong?



Anyway signing and going up for SonyXperiaZ crash course of teaching u how to use the phone lol?

anyone going lol?

Just wondering is there anyway to increase the speaker volume? I have already install speakerboost and soundboost from playstore but it don't seem to help. I found the incall volume a bit too soft and in noisy area can't really hear the caller voice clearly. Btw is there anyway to hide or autohide the below 3 icons when play games and watch movies the 3 icons is on the screen and I find it quite annoying leh. Thanks in advance.
