None of them. You might be able to buy em unlocked, but I'm not sure. The C6603 will work on AT&T HSPA+ but not on LTE. The C6602 will work on AT&T and T-Mobile HSPA+ but doesn't have LTE either.

Verizon and Sprint (and other CDMA networks) won't have any Sony phones any times soon.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unknown13x:
The Z and ZL will be available in the US definitely. It will be available in Sony Style stores. They don't post coming-soon items on Sony Style website. You have to check Sony Mobile's website to see what devices are coming. The date for the states might be about a month at latest after other regions (So hopefully by end of April, we'll see it in the States). This is from how the past has been for US market. Don't worry, I'm waiting along with you :fingers-crossed:

Why do I know that the device will come to the US? Sony will get sued if they post something that won't come to the region as false advertisement. It happened to some other regions a while back when they were SE. ;)

who says the Z doesn't have LTE when it has its own LTE modem built into it. The xperia s is Hspa+ and that's without an LTE modem
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Q.Entity:
Sv: [Q] US Xperia Z Release Date

Sony should bring it with bands for ATT and TMo... like the Nexus phones. They would sell more full price phones. TMo has a lot of people with unlocked phones... many are non US models...

I have a Z on ore order from the UK. Did the same with the Galaxy Nexus... and the Nexus 4. Got my N4 way before most people in the US.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre51:
Don't expect to see it through AT&T.

The Z has LTE and HPSA+ variants. Not all LTE models will work with LTE from various carriers. AT&T LTE isn't supported on the Z according to the whitepapers.

They will have it with bands for T-Mobile and AT&T as shown by the whitepapers. Which model comes out in the US is another story.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shachar85:
Since I upgraded to JB (official. spain's), each time I restart my phone I get the message "Unfortunately, factory mode has stopped".

and then I don't have lockscreen.

I know this topic was covered before, but no solution fixed it.

I already tried:

1. ensure /efs/IMEI/keystr exist and contain "ON" in it. (checked through emulator and explorer)

2. tried to create/check factorymode file exist. never found it, but iמ emulator wrote those lines:

su

echo -n ON > /efs/FactoryApp/factorymode

reboot

still nothing.

anyone can think of another solution?

maybe I'm doing something wrong with the factorymode file?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teem.beam:
Hi Guys,

I 'd like to share my experience with you, I have Nexus 7 3G 32GB, at the moment I received my device I rooted it by using Nexus 7 Toolkit. After using it for a week I figured out four issues:

1- Very slow charging.

2- Battery can't survive more than 6 hours.

3- Android OS battery usage always high, about (20-70)%. (average 50%).

4- UI is lagging too much.

Now How to solve all these issues:

1- Flash a factory image by following this guide [GUIDE] Flashing a Factory Image with fastboot / return to stock be aware that there is only one image for Nexus 7 3G devices, it is 4.2.1 (JOP40D).

2- Use the original charger and cable, I was using a long cable because the original one is too short, the long cable has a block in the middle of it (I don't know what they name it) maybe this block and it's length was causing the slow charging it was taking about 14 hours to full charge from 10%, and now it is only taking 90 minutes to full charge from 10%.

Android OS battery usage is now about (2-12) % never goes higher. I think something went wrong when I rooted the device using the Nexus 7 Toolkit, the UI was lagging too much especially while installing new app at the time it add it's shortcut on the main screen. it looks like that Android OS service was in a looping mode, it still active for a long time so it exhausts system resources.

I am running the stock rom now for about 10 days and it looks like that I bought a new device.

Hope I helped you somehow

Thanks

Welcome To Team VeNuM

Ok all I was officially accepted to TEAM VENUM so this is a BIG honor and I look forward to working with this great bunch of People....

VIRTUE 1.2​

Features

Directions to Install

1. Ensure you make a backup.

2. Reboot into TWRP

3. Nandroid Backup, Wipe Cache 3x's, Wipe Davlick Cache 3x's, Wipe System 3x's, and don't forget to do a Factory Reset.

4. Select Custom Install, select your apps, mods you like. The ROM has already been installed with a Theme by default. It's the Fleur.

So, there is no need to install it again. (We have found that doing the custom install first then coming back and selecting mods will less likely cause problems) That should help with some of the mods not sticking. Also, Please do not select SilkUI or Stock Pulldown options at the same time.

5. Reboot Let it stabilize for about 10 minutes.

6. Enjoy.

Credits

There are so many people to thank, if I miss anyone please forgive me. Everyone is listed in no particular order;

Now for all of you who have followed me on this journey, I want to thank you all. You may ask why it took so long to put out, well MA7 was just a beast, and I wasn't going to put out a semi-functional product. Is the ROM perfect, no, but to me and the guys it's 98 percent perfect, and that's damn good enough for me.

I also have something else I want to add. I will no longer be heading this project, I have turned over this project to Chaz187 as the lead, and Skripka will continue to do his Monster Testing trying to break things. I will be behind the scenes, if Chaz187 needs me.

I have gotten accepted to TeAm VeNuM and look forward to starting some new projects, and learning some new things from the guys, and although I will be doing projects with VeNuM, Team Veritas, and Virtue, will always be near and dear to me. They are a great group of guys, and I will always be there when they need me.

[ROM] [Team Veritas] Virtue ver. 1.1 [MA7] - 17Mar

Hello guys,

I know it's been a while but right now I am on a break, as there really isn't anything worth me doing at this point. The ROM is, to me ok. I am waiting for 4.2.2 to come out. I have seen some leaks, but I want to wait for an official version before I buckle down and start something.

Some of you have asked what is going to be in the next version, I really can't answer that, as I am not sure in the direction I want to go, aside from that I need to sit down with Chaz, and see where we are going with this. He is the lead dev on this ROM.

Anyways, the following is some instructions on how to stop that pesky MC2 update from popping up. I have tested it for 3 days with no problems, I hope it works for you all;

1. Use ES File Manager or ROOT Explorer, and go into your system and turn mount from r/w to r/o.

2. Find build.prop and rename it to build.bak.

3. Download this file - build.prop save it to your sdcard.

4. Copy the build.prop file you downloaded over to your system folder.

5. Set permission to Read All 3 checked and write with owner checked or w-r-r-r

6. Reboot and you should be good to go.

If by chance you still have the problem look in your cache folder located /Device/cache folder and delete the update file from there. Personally I didn't have to do this step as the Update never downloaded. I wish you all luck, and to my fellow Marines, and servicemen and women, thank you all for your service. Be safe this Memorial Day weekend.

This is based off of LJC. You may or may not run into problems if you tried this ROM...Personally if I was on LK8 and wanted to try a ROM that was on LJC, I would go back to stock LJC first....This ROM has the LJC fix when coming from a ROM or install of LK8 to LJC...With that said, it is up to you. I wish you the well...

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Sony Mobile is one of the few mobile manufacturers to pre-apply a screen protector to its smartphones. It’s a nice gesture, providing a factory-fitted finish. The company has been doing this since the Xperia X10 was released back in 2010 and the same will apply to the Xperia Z when it is released next month. However, judging by the photos below it looks like the protective sheet will also double-up to display the ‘Sony’ logo.

For such a pricey phone, you may think that the Sony logo would be baked into the display, but this doesn’t appear to be the case. The guys over at ComputerBild.de carefully removed the pre-applied protector, although it wasn’t easy as you can see below. They found that once it was removed, the front face of the phone was just a single sheet of glass with no logo to be found.

At this stage, we don’t know whether this will be the case for retail devices, but it certainly seems to be the case for pre-production samples. We’re not even sure it’s such a big deal, a single sheet of glass can look pretty elegant. What’s your view, is this cost-cutting measure a bit too much? Would you expect the logo to be etched onto the glass given the price?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiFIL:
The sheet is for the pre beta and pre production units. The final device will have the sony logo on the device itself, rather than the protective sheet.

How can you be so sure??
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robertopod1968:
Why would anybody care? We ***** because of big logos, and then we ***** because they come off with the screen protector. Is it really that important to you people for other people to know that you have a Sony phone? Huh? The world is really f'd.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matarese171:
Can never be sure, its just common sense. Why make your company logo removable on your flagship device? if the Sony logo gets removed by the screen protector, how will other people know its a Sony if the device is lying face up? It doesn't make sense to have it only printed in the screen protector. I hardly think its to save cash either.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
Just a lil hope i guess! Coz assuming that Sony wont put up the logo in a screen protector for a premium flagship phone!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
You are right to an extent! Maybe they could have had problems in etching out the logo in the glass. That's what the link too says and it also shows that the protector is rigid and they indeed have found difficulties in removing it and showing us out. So Sony might have thought that the protector wont peel off easily and might have stuck the logo in it! Anyways, anything could happen!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matarese171:
Well I would be very surprised if the logo is only etched onto the screen protector and not the actual phone itself.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathlessOne:
If it does, Samsung would immediately develop (only) a screen protector of 5" in size that says Samsung at the top and it would eventually be named as Samsung Galaxy Z and they would start bragging about the pinnacle of design, craftsmanship and all such!! :D

Hope you understand what am talking bout!! :p :laugh:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiFIL:
My uncle works for the Sony HQ in Spain. He said that they were too busy preparing the pre prodcution units that they decided to print it on the protective sheet. Rest assured, the xperia Z will come with the Sony logo on the device itself.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffsmash:
I removed the sheets on the back and front. The back is now an oily fingerprint collecting mess and the front feels like it's matt and has no Sony logo. It has also affected the loudspeaker of the phone which goes quiet now for over 4 or 5 hours at a time when the phone touches water.

Very bad idea.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koobi:
Ahh ok so I have small scratches on the anti shatter film and want to remove it but not after reading your comment.

Will the front be a fingerprint magnet mess or will it be fine?

Does the glass itself has oleophobic coating or not?

Or remove it and put the screen protector that came with it?

I replaced my LG optimus 2x for this phone and never had any problem with scratches on LG O2X and i never used a screen protector or not even a hard or soft case..
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akiainavas:
I agree that it is a very bad idea - but the anti-shatter film has absolutely nothing to do with the speaker...
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amielxda:
The anti shatter film in the phone is not an ordinary screen protector..it protects the glass of the phone. They said that it absorbs vibration to protect the glass.. its a part of the phone.. its not recommended to be removed.. your sony warranty will be void if you removed it as well as the sony logo think.. Thats why the phone has a extra screen protector to place on top of the anti shatter film :D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imna357:
How did you peel it off? Did it leave a mark where you started? Want to take out the Sony logo and does the back same as the front?

Thanks
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattJaO3D:
Dude, I wouldn't advise peeling it off for numerous reasons, mainly being protection and also devalue your handset, not too mention the amount of times you'll be cleaning finger prints off it ;)
