[General Questions and Answers] MirecXP:
I agree it could be a pain using the chromebook for your purpose, which is not so standard device yet.

Netbook (chromebook) is not the same as notebook. E.g. the netbook I've listed has computation power like 8 year old notebook and a cheapest notebook you will buy today is a beast compared to any netbook.

But netbook may have a usual hard drive, you can store many things in it, and process the word or powerpoint documents in a standard way you are used to on a PC. But it will be very slow compared to the PC or notebook and it will not be possible to use more complex programs, e.g. some technical things or powerful graphic editors... BUT it will run for 6+ hours and is very small and quite cheap.
[General Questions and Answers] Williamharv:
Alright thanks for the clarification! I'll look into some note books if i can find them, but I'm not really looking to run complex programs just Microsoft word/powerpoint and a few other applications really. Netbooks seem to have a much longer battery life as well from what I've seen.

the new 307 software is now available in Belgium on Pc Companion and Sony Update Service.

Not OTA for the moment.

The only thing I notice is the fact that Camera seems to start up faster from locked screen.

Otherwise not really a anything.

Oh and don’t tell UK unbranded, they’re still waiting for 253!
[Xperia Z General] scorpi786:
what's the change list and have they kept the contrast and blacks the same as .253. I hope the camera is improved now in low light situation.

[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
MyXperia is currently in a limited beta and only included for some regions (Nordic countries and apparently Germany too). It'll probably be available for everyone in the summer, close to/together with the 4.2.2 update.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
I just compared the 10.1.1.A.1.253 and 10.1.1.A.1.307 FTF files. The following parts are bit-identical:

amss_fs_1.sin, amss_fs_2.sin, amss_fs_3.sin (BASEBAND)

apps_log.sin (APPSLOG)

loader.sin (LOADER)

partition-image.sin (PARTITION)

rpm.sin (UNKNOWN)

In attachment you can find a list of differences between the 'system.sin' files of both versions :)
[Xperia Z General] mlamlam:
I have XZRecovery, so it can be retained, but superuser is removed and need to re-flash?
[Xperia Z General] Andrewtst:
Finally success update to 10.1.1.A.1.307 firmware with ROOT maintain & working perfectly. :D

* I direct update from my current root & deoxeded eXistenZ [Black Edition] | V3 v.253 ROM.

I use instruction post by [NUT] here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2313369

What is change:

Camera startup seems pretty fast this time.

Superior Auto mode seems slightly improve, the noise is not that much compare with previous .253 firmware. But still SCN mode is much better.

Overall seems much smoother.

New app - Converter.

Sample shot using 10.1.1.A.1.307 firmware:

SCN - Night Potrait

Superior Auto
[Xperia Z General] JamesChing:
Thanks for the news man! :)

Just want to add 1 new observation:

the LED light seems to be much brighter than before, does anyone notice it? :p
[Xperia Z General] :
they need to add led settings like time out or somthing its not good when i get a call or sms at night

the led is working all night until i use the phone again
[Xperia Z General] rezzsha:
However minor, i think they removed the "close all" in the open apps menu, so annoying though
[Xperia Z General] JamesChing:
You can try to use this app, called "Light manager"

In "Advanced Setting", there is an option for "Enable Sleeping Time", which allows you to switch on and off the led notification! :)

Basic notifications like Missed Call, Message, Gmail etc are instantly available upon installation [NO ROOT IS NEEDED! :laugh:]

Enabling notification on other 3rd party apps (eg. Twitter, FB messenger...etc) requires ROOT though

Hope it helps! :good:

[Xperia Z General] [NUT]:
Look at my files page... it is

Rooted and with XZDualRecovery.

Same instructions apply as with the .253 update package:

C6602: How to update to 10.1.1.A.1.307:

For C6602: Download C6602.flashable.307.zip (728MB) and Xperia_Z_10.1.1.A.1.307_C6602_TW-stripped.ftf (14MB), save it somewhere you remember;

Put 'C6602.flashable.307.zip' on (the external) SDcard1;

Put 'Xperia_Z_10.1.1.A.1.307_C6602_TW-stripped.ftf' inside the Flashtool/firmwares folder;

Create a backup of your phone in CWM or TWRP and don't forget to backup the contents of 'SDCard0';

Flash everything in 'Xperia_Z_10.1.1.A.1.307_C6602_TW-stripped.ftf' to your phone and boot the phone straight to recovery after that;

NOTE: If you have an unlocked bootloader, you CAN flash the kernel, but you do not need to, to keep your custom kernel. DooMKernel v7 has support for this ROM version.

Flash 'C6602.flashable.307.zip' in recovery (Works in both CWM and TWRP!)

Reboot to system

without

clearing (dalvik-/)cache.

Link in my signature.

C6602 Users, please let me know if it works OK, if it does, I'll add it to my update to .307 thread :)
[Xperia Z General] TheAlteredState:
Ah man, nothing here in The Netherlands either...
[Xperia Z General] levz:
Still no sign of .307 here PH stuck w/ 253 till now., just wonderin last time the 253 HK unit getting bit late, coz i have a friend bought in HK, i told him update on 253 and he cant, And now the .307 upgrade seems their getting one the first batches.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
If you are rooted, you can just change your customization number to 1270-6704 and you will get the update via PC Companion or Sony Update Service (see this guide, part A). If you want to keep your root, you can follow [NUT]'s guide.

If you are not rooted, you can just flash the 'Generic BE' version. Uncheck 'DATA' and 'CACHE' in Flashtool and you will not lose any data.

As soon as 'Generic NL' is released, you can still return to that customization by flashing an FTF or by changing your customization number if you are rooted.
[Xperia Z General] Tea-Aholic:
Hi guys. I'm new here.

Can anyone tell my if my phone is running the Hong Kong firmware or a different region? How can I check? I'm still on 253 and I want to know what region firmware is installed currently on the device.
[Xperia Z General] alexp999:
Open dialer, and key in:

*#*#SERVICE#*#*

Then go to software info and look for the "active customization" number.
[Xperia Z General] Tea-Aholic:
Thank you. It says I'm using Generic Greek firmware. Can use flashtool to install the HK version? Which verison of flashtool do i use?
[Xperia Z General] TheKingOfPain:
Available in Italy for no-brand devices.
[Xperia Z General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
Can I leave the option App Log checked ???
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
You can flash an FTF file of the region you want. Customization numbers can be found in this list. Not necessary to wipe DATA and CACHE. Download Flashtool from here. You can use this guide if you want. If the FTF you have downloaded contains 'simlock.ta', then you need to check 'TA' in Flashtool to exclude this.

If you can cannot find the FTF file of the region you want, there is another way to change your customization, but your phone needs to be rooted without bootloader unlock, see this guide.

Yes, APPSLOG can be wiped, that's not a problem.
[Xperia Z General] must.sayim:
yes, you can do it. and you can use the 0.9.10.2beta6 for flashing the HK, BE OR SPANISH firmware.

YOU can find the ftf's by googling it
[Xperia Z General] rombo2006:
i have problem with flashing ftf file, i have flashtool 0.9.11 and it doesnt show me ftf file in window with firmwares.. i dont know why..

[Xperia Z General] must.sayim:
try to use the beta one
[Xperia Z General] rombo2006:
i tried before last version..
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
You should download Flashtool from the link I provided, not from the official website because that version does not work yet with Xperia Z.

The FTF needs to be placed in C:\Flashtool\firmwares or you can of course also change the 'source folder' in Flashtool.

EDIT: just checked and apparently you can use version 0.9.11.0 now. Just make sure that the FTF is extracted in the right folder.
[Xperia Z General] smardu:
I think there is a problem with BE version, there are a lot of missing previews of the videos in album. This problem was present on some 253 versions too.
[Xperia Z General] must.sayim:
What do you mean by missing previews?
[Xperia Z General] smardu:
Also..xda app is crashing when checking PM.

I've made a clean install also..

Till now there are 3prbls, the one exposed and battery drain, 3h on batt with 2.5h screen on and heavily usage

All solutions found were applied, cache removed etc but with no results. On 253 SG and NL the problem was not in there.
[Xperia Z General] nick2crete:
It did not work for me ,did you boot to recovery right after flashing ?
[Xperia Z General] dvd777:
Flashed .307 BE an hour ago. Everything they say about this update is true. Better camera performance, better reception and little better battery (as l can see surfing on 3G). Very satisfied ;)
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
If you mean the black thumbnails for some videos, then this issue has nothing to do with the BE version and yes, it was present in the .253 version too. It has already been mentioned on Sony's official forum. Apparently, the new version now uses the first frame of video files as thumbnail. If the first frame is black, then the thumbnail is black too. I hope they will change this back.
[Xperia Z General] must.sayim:
try to clear data for the album app, or re-flash another Ftf
[Xperia Z General] smardu:
Already did this, no effect.

Only HK and BE are available for the moment. Still waiting for another region.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Another region will not help. Album app is the same in all regions. Like I said, it just uses the first video frame as thumbnail.
[Xperia Z General] smardu:
Thanks for the info.

Anyway on 253 SG and NL version this was not happening.

[Xperia Z General] Ambroos:
If you got your phone through Proximus/Belgacom (and possibly The Phone House) you're on a different update stream. Their phones are 'branded', even though you don't actually see it in the software. Might take a long time, it's always been a customization to receive updates VERY slow. Blame Belgacom.
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
That's why I asked his customization version. Also, some "Belgian" webshops are in fact companies from the Netherlands who sell "Generic NL" phones.

At least Proximus phones got the .253 update before the UK :D

On page 19 of this thread, I posted a file comparison between .253 and. 307. All three baseband files were bit-identical, so it's quite useless to flash them :rolleyes:

[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
Then you will have to wait until the new version gets released for 'Proximus (Vfe) BE' (see list) or you could flash the 'Generic BE' version.

a Question;

in build.prop u mentioned that Text files are different; would u pls explain more about it? i wanna know wht does it mean exactly...

Thanks
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
That PDF file is just the output of the comparison program (WinMerge).

Since build.prop is not a binary file but a text file, it says "Text files are different".

I just checked and the only difference inside build.prop is the build number.
[Xperia Z General] serpicoUK:
I flashed the HK release on my unbranded UK phone and it's C6602 but I was sure it was C6603 before flashing.

If you flash the 6602 onto 6603 handset, will you lose LTE capacity?

According to your customization number, you are currently using this firmware:

Generic TW 1270-5691 10.1.1.A.1.307 Taiwan

Seems like you flashed the 'Generic TW' version (which is for C6602) instead of 'Generic HK'.

I'd recommend you to download the 'Generic BE' version and flash that one (flash everything, but don't wipe data/cache):

[STOCK ROM][FTF] Xperia Z (C6603) 10.1.1.A.1.307 Generic BE (Unbranded/Belgium)
[Xperia Z General] serpicoUK:
Is that the flash in 2 parts? I tried it yesterday and kept getting to 70% but no further. I am confused as in my downloads is the HK version.

What can happen if I leave as is?
[Xperia Z General] Apollo89:
I suggest trying again. There might have been problems with Dev-Host.

Just download both parts and extract them with WinRAR or 7-Zip.

If you continue using C6602 firmware on your C6603, unexpected problems may arise, as it was made for a different baseband processor.

About this update and the camera i can just say wow, i make a few photo the other night and a lot of detail in the background was pretty sharp (i have a few comment, i'll update some pic ASAP. About battery life and wi-fi range they look a bit worst for now, but maybe an impression.
