Socialife is incompatible at the moment so it is normal as it was not stable when I use it on my trial set of Xperia Z.

Guess Sony remove it for the Xperia Z to do some fine tuning before releasing on the Google Playstore so just hold on first. =:p

When I click on Socialife, it brought me to Playstore with an update. After updating, I can access socialife...
But the widget itself doesn't seems to display anything..:s11:

Edit: I see, just checked Playstore...and it is now incompatible...
Seems like I managed to update it before it became incompatible.

Hello every1, just upgrade from XS to XZ this afternoon. Actually was struggling shld i wait for ZL or not, and i saw the latest post from Xperia Blog that somewhere around mid yr will release a new Xperia handset (Rumours). Anyway, Jus some noob question wanna ask around here...

-i realise that there is no chinese input characters for this phone, is this normal? have tagalog, indon, malay no chinese ?_?
-i also realise that my network display is 'LTE' instead of 'H/3G', does it mean im already on 4G network? My sim card also cut into micro sim 1~ lol
-is it me only or any1 of u feels that the cam is somehow...not up to expectation?

Comparing side by side with my XS, i FEEL that XZ is like only 30% better(pls dont flame me, persective view only ><). I know that the batt life is kind of weak, but as i remember that my XS starting batt life oso not that impressive. i seriously hope that the batt life will improve in about a few weeks time, Cheers~

-Chinese is on a separate keyboard same with Japanese. Go to settings>language & input and check your desired keyboard. During input, pull down the notification bar and you can switch between keyboards from there.:s12:
-LTE = 4G, so yup, you're already on 4G network ;)

Hi guys,

So beside doing a hard reset and/or repair on pc, what other ways to resolve the led notification issue? Mine is not working as well

I did the same factory reset to no avail even after installing lightflow...

however a bro a few pages back (post 802) mentioned that in addition to doing a factory reset, you must also tick the "erase internal storage" to wipe EVERYTHING from the phone during the factory reset...

Got it resolved...

Guys before you hit the FACTORY RESET, do check the ERASE INTERNAL MEMORY as well. I did factory reset the first time, my LED wasnt working.

I did it the second time by wiping out the internal memory also, the LED notification is working and also my Silent mode issue is solved..

i can confirm that once I did that, the notification LEDs were working afterwards :D

Yes, guess some of the handset with the older version of Socialife so it is still functioning and with the latest update, it has stopped functioning.

Just have to wait for further updates from Sony, I can access Socialife from my Sony Tablet and I can say the Socialife is much better than the previous Timescape. =:p

Have you tried using LightFlow app?
It allows you to test the LED settings as well. Let it take over the LED and it can give you more control.

Understand your frustration. Remember to test it before confirming.

Did you try:

After factory reset, DO NOT RESTORE from GOOGLE

and test the LEDs

I think is the GOOGLE restore issue.. at least for me
