Regarding LTE I had put up a question about it in an article relating to LTE of Sony Developer website. The person replied to contact the toll free 1800-3000-2800 and I had called them up. The guy at xperia support said that the model will release in 15-20 days of this month and it will be a LTE model :) :D

Eagerly waiting for official announcement to know the truth, the suspense is killing me :D
[Xperia Z General] SEFanX10i:
I don't think so. India is getting HSPA+ version only AFAIK, like other SE Asian countries - C6602
[Xperia Z General] karun11:
Xperia Z in March. ZL in April.
[Xperia Z General] SEFanX10i:
I don't like the ZL though. Plastic back not for me :) (Again, I mean :P )
[Xperia Z General] AayushDhuria:
I'd have gone for ZL if it had the front camera on top. I use it quite a lot and it'll be covered with my hand in that place. I love glass back but I can't use that roughly and I'm not someone who can handle phone like a baby, nor am I rough user.
[Xperia Z General] buBleZ:
Customs for mobile phones imported to India is 2.05% . Please check the our customs website. I have imported nexus 4's , Droid DNAs and I can vouch on this %
[Xperia Z General] adicool:
Could you tell me what price did u get HTC Droid DNA for ? That is after paying customs !

Thanks

& ya LTE is region specific & those are band of frequencies i guess so i am pretty sure Indian Model wont get the LTE model because even if it did get the LTE version we wont be able to use it :P

Sorry to hear, have you posted in olx and quikr? Create a listing in eBay as well. It might help. He'll get well soon in no time. Don't worry.

Urgent sale!
[Xperia Z General] msc3169:
Why don't someone change the title of this thread to 'XPERIA Z FOR SALE..!!" ??
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Well said, but not worthy of a laugh!

When Indian people face some sticky situations regarding buying/selling, they use this thread. Swappa is also not available here. It's acceptable to an extent. BTW, Z is out here and there is no point now in discussing it's problems/doubts here where there are many threads devoted for it. When discussing it here you can also overcome spamming/repetition of threads regarding buying/selling. When you face yourself in a situation like the people here, you'll know. Don't like it? Feeling violating? Leave or report this thread. Let the mod's do their job.
[Xperia Z General] msc3169:
"7. Do not spam, sell or trade on the forums.

If you wish to advertise a product, contact us we provide ads. But do not post it in the forums, it will be removed and you're likely to receive a ban."

That's what the forum rules say. Its clear people posting here are unaware about it.
[Xperia Z General] demonicangell™:
yeah ! :rolleyes: nobody reads the rules .
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
If people are in extreme urgent situations like mandarjoshiin, they can't be relying on ad's as they aren't immediate solution. XDA uses those because swappa is now here and many are unaware of it and it's pretty complicated in India in using it. People ask does anybody want it, but everyone of us advise them to post on ebay, olx and in quikr. We don't involve in trading. Please flip a few pages back in this thread and you'll know. If it's not good, then the mod's can take their decision as stated above. None of the trading was done here. People ask, we advise them and they leave and sell somewhere. Am in this thread from the beginning until now and I know it.
[Xperia Z General] sidthegreatest:
As a matter of fact, there used to be an India specific portal on Swappa some time ago.
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Try it:

[Xperia Z General] sidthegreatest:
Oops.

There's always eBay to sell stuff.
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:

[Xperia Z General] msc3169:
I dont know why you are replying as if I have offended the said person in any way.

Try goin through the last few pages yourself, there were many users 'advertising' their phones. My comment was directed at those users.
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
No offense on you fella, am just telling you that people cross the rules when they are in need of any emergency and that's what happens here. :)
[Xperia Z General] dhirajmishra:

Has anyone heard when the 423 firmware's coming to India?
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
http://fuas.sonymobile.com/fuas/ser...mat=delta,image&channel=cable&cdfId=1270-7186

Just bookmark the above link.

Check the numbers inside the swversion tag, if they show .423, then it's out.
[Xperia Z General] AndroidFreud:
Any word from anyone about the 4.2 update for anyone in India??

Have been reading a lot of positive reviews from a lot of people about the update especially the improvement in WiFi range....

Has anyone found if the update fixes the dead pixel problem in the camera as yet??

Desperately waiting for this update!!!!!!
[Xperia Z General] thalada:
You gotta wait! Update won't fix the dead pixel issue already in my case. I got it fixed in the service center.
[Xperia Z General] jigarpatel22:

Hello All,

I recently installed an app on the phone after which I started getting Ads notification asking me to install various other apps. I removed the app that I installed but I still get Ad notifications. Its really irritating. Does anyone know how to remove those ads?

Please do help.

Thanking you
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Ad's in the sense where are you getting them? In type of notifications, or flash messages like what?
[Xperia Z General] piyushjeswani:
In the notification bar.. Like install wwe for android.. It comes at least 3 times a day.. Will post a screenshot next time it comes.
[Xperia Z General] warfareonly:
Those are called 'push ads'.

Go to downloaded apps in settings and delete the ones you think are causing the ads. Reboot and check
[Xperia Z General] karun11:
Still no update in India. What is Sony doing? :grr
[Xperia Z General] h4r5h:
^The next time you receive such a notification, just tap and hold, and then click on "App Info". That way you can find the culprit!
[Xperia Z General] warfareonly:
Much better way !
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Hope that Sony is working day and night to incorporate the Sony JIVE and Sony Music apps into the system! We should give them abundant time, shouldn't we? :p
[Xperia Z General] piyushjeswani:
Thanks a lot. That really helped.. Uninstalled the app that was causing the ads to come.

What firmware are you in and what modifications have you applied?
[Xperia Z General] piyushjeswani:
I have attached the screenshot. And I have not done any modifications as of now. I have no idea why it restarts on its own. Anyone else facing this issue?
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Hmmm.. Strange. Maybe any system apps are getting crashed?
[Xperia Z General] Kunwar.g:
I am using android for the first time. Dont even know the meaning of flashing :( . Got back from office and saw update on flipboard that Sony has announced the 4.2.2 update for XZL only. Connected to PC Companion and it did it all for me. Since I had exhausted the download limit of my broadband, it took around 7 hrs. I slept in the meanwhile. Wokeup to 4.2.2.
[Xperia Z General] piyushjeswani:
That may be a possibility. But I have no idea if that is happening because I don't get any error message before it restarts. It just restarts randomly. How do I check if any app is getting crashed? Will I need to format it?

[Xperia Z General] trishul:
Hi people

I just bought this awesome phone yesterday. I was using the HTC one for the past month but gave it back cause I couldn't justify to myself paying 42k for a phone with cheap construction quality.

The xperia Z is simply an awesome phone to use and hold in the hands.

Battery life doesn't seem to great as of now but I suppose that will get better after a few charge cycles.

I just had one query if anyone here could help me... In the HTC one whenever I would call someone the phone would vibrate to indicate that the called party had picked up and the call was connected. This feature seems to be missing on the xperia Z.. Does anyone know if this could be enabled and how.

Thanks
[Xperia Z General] yudi7:
Congrats for your new phone.

Battery life will improve after a few charge cycles. Try using the Stamina Mode. That really helps. As for the Vibrate on pickup, I don't think that it's available in XZ. It's available in Cyanogenmod(cm10.1) but to install that, you have to unlock your bootloader.
[Xperia Z General] karun11:
Oh my bad. I thought you had the Z :) The ZL update has been out for some time now.
[Xperia Z General] DeathlessOne:
Guys try updating now. Check via PCC and report if it's available. I hope it's available (Not sure). So temme.

Edit: Not yet available.
[Xperia Z General] AndroidFreud:
Damn!! I read the first part and my hopes shot up sky high!! C'mon Sony!!!!

The review in this months edition of Stuff magazine pitted the S4, HTC One and Xperia Z against each other and ranked the Z no. 3 in the list.

As warped as some of their reviews are, it's still bad marketing for you and it doesn't help that there's been little to no accessory after sales since the Z came out nor was the so called 'premium' lame bundle that came out in India even vaguely as close as the cool higher end expensive freebies customers got in other countries.

Stop testing our patience Sony and get your game on! Tough love for you but in today's markets, that's all you get!
[Xperia Z General] Cookie Ninja:
Surprisingly Sonymobile India Website product support page shows the latest update available for XZ as:

"Android version: Google Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean)

Latest available software: 10.3.A.0.423

Release started: 2013-06-24"

Latest JB 4.2.2 (build .423) update

I like the new update (4.2.2 build .423 India) for the additional features it offers but i find it buggy & laggier at times. Album app lags while scrolling or zooming with simultaneous use of wifi/bluetooth, so does the movie app. Camera launch is slowest of all firmwares till date. Homescreens stutter every now n then. Battery percent remaining randomly changes on reboots sometimes. Also, a homescreen snapshot appears just before the boot up screen (sony logo) on start up. None of these issues are there on previous .253 firmware.

Improvements that i've noticed so far on 4.2.2 are: better performing iAuto mode in the camera, slightly better wifi reception range, transparent navbar & statusbar besides the additional features like editable quick settings (toggles), new lockscreen, my xperia, dualshock3 controller, daydream etc. I think battery backup is similar to previous .253 fw. So, in all these are the pros n cons i've noticed so far on 4.2.2 & i think i might go back to previous fw untill sony's fix for the above mentioned issues. Btw, i updated using SUS with factory data reset & also performed a SUS repair later on, but the issues still persist.

P.S: Also tried the .423 TW fw for few days before this update & all these issues are common to both the roms.
[Xperia Z General] manojpahal:
Is there anyone who gets update on indian customisation 1275-1562 xperia z c6603
[Xperia Z General] AndroidFreud:
Updated yesterday via Sony update service and boy am surprisingly regretting it!

It actually feels laggier, the lockscreen is just ugly as hell (the old one had nicer looking buttons with a crisper, lighter looking font), the WiFi has NOT improved, pulling down the notifications menu feels slightly slower than before.

I really don't see the point of this upgrade! Was it just to add in their dual shock controllers? To label the icons in the notifications bar cos we were having such a hard time remembering them??!!

Can someone highlight what exactly is so good in this 4.2 update? Cos I'm stumped so far and had high hopes.

How are people reverting back to the old fw? I've never had to do it before. Any help is highly appreciated :)

Really hope Sony gets their act together..
[Xperia Z General] msc3169:
Let the new software settle for a day or two this will reduce the lags if not eliminate them completely.

Users are reporting a lag fix update by Sony rolling out it has the same build number as current 4.2.2

You can wait for that update else you can flash any 4.1.2 stock ROM via Flashtools.
