shld be available if not soon
it's on the sony sg webby liao

USM32SA1 : USB On-The-Go : USB Storage Media : Sony Singapore

as for pricing

The flash disks are compatible with Android devices running Android 4.0.3 and above (Android 4.4 isn’t supported yet but will be in the future) with support for USB On-The-Go (OTG) connectivity, a requirement that makes them compatible mostly with high-end devices as USB OTG isn’t something you’d usually find on low-end and mid-range phones and tablets. Availability will begin globally in January 2014, with 8, 16 and 32 GB variants priced at $19.99, $29.99, and $62.99 respectively.

Sony's new dual USB flash drives offer cheap expandable storage for smartphones and tablets

wanna ask if any bro is using adaway?

if you do, after updating to 4.3 and losing root
will your previously modified host file be restored then ads will appear on ur free apps?

by rite tis app require root access once to modify ur host file, to prevent ads frm appearing
since host file ish already modified, by right ads shldnt appear
moi not sure updating to 4.3 will restore the host file or not

 

[rollbread]

Why I feel like sometimes there will be abit lag.

I tried to watch video online and at some stage it hang. It feels like it's the ram being used up.

Is the charger under warranty by Sony? despite the 1500mA claimed output, it take one hour to charge only 5% and also disconnected when the charger is moved a little. it seems like not only the charging is faulty, the connection is loose also.

ignoring the trouble and transport may cost more than the charger itself, where is Sony service center and how can I claim the warranty?

TIA.

If i did not remember wrongly, sony covers phone and accessories for 1 year.

Hi can I ask,

1) how come my phone doesn't charge when I plug in to my portable battery?

2) how come I tride installing an android game and 254MB but encounteredan error stating I did not have SDK card. I did not put any SDK card but why didn't it install to phone memory? My phone capacity still has 10cb though.

Thanks for the replies

1. check the voltage of your portable battery. also, test the battery with other phones and see

2. I supposed you mean SD Card? Some games will install their data onto an SD Card to save space on your phone. ur phone has 10cb? LOLOL

 

[mahcosg]

haha now managed to perform both already, after I update to 4.3

 

[kazuki666]

Just curious. Does Xperia Z have magnetic charging cable? Though I am already using the charging clip which I don't need to open the microusb flap, I am still looking around for more options to the "wireless charging"...

 

[Hinata76]

nooe..i been searching around for it too...but..some users over XDA they znged using magnets to have the wireless charging thing. haiz....Z1 make me gian cos it use magnetic charging..and have a shutter button...other than that..im quite happy with xperia Z..

 

[DoraemonBoi]

I am happy with my Z, however cosmetic issue make me want to change my Z to the next Z

 

[David Lai]

SD Card just got corrupted suddenly @ 4.3.
Anyone have same problem, and what's the firmware version?

 

[kazuki666]

Btw, those of you whom had upgraded to 4.3. Are you all also using Power Toggles also? I noticed that the tether function on Power Toggles is not functioning properly ever since the os upgrade...
Back then at a click from the widget, I can switch on and off the tether easily. Now I click it but cannot on. So I had to set the Sony new Quick Settings to have the tether in the pull down for the ease. Anyone can advise if there is something wrong or could it be some settings I missed out?

I am actually quite happy with Z. If really need to find fault, it will be the lack of accessories in the market. I always have to end up googling in taobao and also not many choices.
Btw, I believe this charging case was in the market for sometime le, but just that it didn't really hit our markets.
SONY L36H

I have been seeing the charging case/power bank wireless charging set in taoabao. But I didn't like the idea of having a bulky powerbank casing so I never got it. Finally they dropped the powerbank concept and went casing and wireless charging only.
It will cost ard sgd40 before shipping and forwarding fees. What do you all think? The only downside is I don't get to show off my purple color le lor...

 

[waterballoon]

I use dock to charge, so lucky for me lol
