Is the USB flap replaceable if it falls off? The white connecting plastic on mine looks like it's partly broken and it's going to completely snap any time now.

Maybe I will leave it as it is if the flap drops off.

Xs is not water-resistant anyway and its a hassle to remove the flap everytime. :s13:

Where's the rest of the RAM?

The Xperia S is supposed to have 1 GB of RAM, but the running apps only shows 635 MB of RAM in total for used and available RAM.

Does anyone know the reason for this inconsistency?

The unseen (missing) 300+ ram is used to run the phone os & essential programs. The remaining 600+ ram you see are available memory for apps.

No Landscape mode in home screen?

It used to be that the home screen would auto rotate to landscape mode while charging, but now it doesn't. When using other apps like messaging or phone the screen will auto rotate.

Does anyone know why?

Which phone are you talking about? I know that normally you will get landscape mode for sony phones when connected to TV via hdmi or when put on dock.

hi, does anyone here have problems with the smart tags aft the update of the "smart connect" app?...it was ok for the 1st few days aft the release of the app. but aft a while, my xs doesnt open up apps when i tabbed the tags. it plays a sound when i tabbed it to a smart tag, so i suppose it still detects. the strange thing is it doesnt vibrate as it usually does and there is no response whatsoever in the OS..:s11:

Hmm are you using the original charger? Some chargers will make the screen behave weirdly.

Well since this is the Official Xperia S thread, I am using an Xperia S. :p
I remember when I plug my phone to charge, the home screen will auto rotate to landscape mode if I place the phone that way. But it's not doing so now.. so wondering what's the issue?

The homescreen shouldn't have a landscape mode right? o_O

OK, but I never seen any landscape mode for xs when plugging my phone to phone charger.

Some other times when I see landscape mode on my xs is when I just exited an app that only uses landscape view.
