I might include that the camera is superb! In my comparison with galaxy s4, note 2, iPhone 5... Maybe s4 has too much digital effects.

Sony has excellent superior auto mode. And it does very well in determining which iso settings, white balance, and macro.

If you're looking for very sleek and unique device that is durable enough to drop, waterproof, and excellent camera/video. This is the one for you.

In the states, t-mobile has exclusivity in this phone. This is good or bad. Like I mentioned before... We are behind on developers.

Good thing is that, most likely, you'll have truly unique and very durable phone.

In my opinion, this phone isn't the one for me... The Sony stuff is in very early stage, and they need to focus more in tightening the software. As of power user, the device is not friendly.

I'm on stock and I get way more then 7 hrs

---------- Post added at 01:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 AM ----------

Right now I'm at 14 and a half hours and close to 3 hrs screen time with 18% battery left
[Xperia Z General] woostar88:
How often do you turn on and use the device?

Also, how long have you had the device for?

I'm just thinking because my device is new and not optimized yet. (had the same issue with my iPhone 5 and went away after a week of usage)

I'm really debating if I should get the htc one. I just can't stand the battery percent dropping every min or so.
[Xperia Z General] Damented:
I've owned it for a little over two weeks now
[Xperia Z General] masterofmayhem:
A waterproof phone should have wireless charging so you don't have to keep opening the flaps to wear out the waterproofness. That is my only fault of this phone
[Xperia Z General] LordManhattan:
Xperia Z Ultra. Big battery, fully waterproof (according to Sony), flapless headset jack and it's sporting the fastest CPU available (Snapdragon 800).

Is it a phone (size wise) though? I'm really not sure, but I want one.
[Xperia Z General] Jonathan2677:
As far as development you can use all the same stuff, I've been using all6603 stuff and retain everything but wifi calling, I'm rooted, dual custom recovery and newest 244.4.2.2 firmware and it's made my battery way better and phone smoother as far as the ports I use the dock and blue tooth headphobes

Thats what the dock is for
[Xperia Z General] woostar88:
Honestly, the glass all around is more for looks... It is pure finger print magnet along with no olephobic. Ahhhh I wanna like this phone so much. But I'll be returning it tomorrow for HTC one.

Personally, i do need better batt life than 7 plus hours. This is with light usage too.

Perhaps my phone is defective. But I don't want to risk it or have the patience to wait for the Sony to patch the tmo xperia.

Sorry fellas, but this isn't the one for me. And I'll be joint the HTC one shortly. Although I'll miss the waterproof. Which is awesome.
[Xperia Z General] ihaxda1:
yea sony did alot of things wrong with this phone but still its a good phone if i could replace i would go for the s4
[Xperia Z General] TracerBullitt:
Are you not using Stamina Mode?
[Xperia Z General] Jonathan2677:
I also own the HTC one and I can into way say a bad thing about it, it is a awesome smooth, good looking, feeling beast with decent battery and great development, now my s4 got sold fast (junk) if you get that root is necessary to fix that lag fest known as touch wiz, manage way that phone runs you would never guess it's specks, but again you'll be happy with a one, but I also love my xz it's for now my daily driver

You're gonna be disappointed with the HTC One then. Had that phone and battery life sucked! Was constantly on the charger. Even worse, it takes forever to charge, about 4-5 hours. That was the #1 reason why I sold it. Just got my Xperia tonight, so way too soon to evaluate the battery for me, lol

[Xperia Z General] skinsfanbdh:
+1 i sold my htc one to get the xz. battery life is a little better on the one but takes 2 or 3 times longer to charge. only real complaint i have for the xz is the locked bootloader. no android device should be locked down like the tmo variant of the xperia z
[Xperia Z General] OsiBasi:
I get 3 days battery with about 4 hours on screen time. 7 hours wat... I've seen people get 7 hours onscreen time.

Though, best of luck with your new HTC One, I didn't like it to much, was some weird light leak on the corners too which made the screen hard to see. Battery was better though, better than both S4 &XZ
[Xperia Z General] poopypoo13:
I also have the tmobile version. My buddy has the htc one and he only had it for a month and his screen got dead pixels, defective or its just waste idk. He loves my xz cuz of the look and camera. Honestly i get over 7hrs of battery and i game, Facebook, streaming all day long, Constantly texting too with loads of xda reading plus wifi always on. I have stamina mode on and i can last more than a day without charging. The heating issue is not too bad either. I updated to 4.2.2 and its better than on 4.1.2

I hope ur phone isn't defective, that would blow.
[Xperia Z General] babylonbwoy:
Just stop the service in application tab and restart the mobile.

Battery drain is a common issue in all smartphones, you just have to use and know your phone to optimise it step by step.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] andrewnelson23:
I just got my s4g today, and I must say, it's incredible. I'm coming from a desire hd, and while the dhd has some things to offer, like a bigger screen and a torch, the s4g definitely stacks up against the dhd in terms of performance after putting a custom rom on it. Also seems much more stable and better battery life so far. I built rootbox for my asus tf300t, and I loved it, so thought I'd give it a try on my new s4g and it's beautiful. Thank you. :good: :)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] andrewnelson23:
I'm not sure if you take requests, but was just wondering if there was any way you could build carbon 4.3? I would, but I don't quite have a good understanding on how to add a kernel that isn't a prebuilt to the build. When I built rootbox for my tf300t, I used a device tree that contained a prebuilt kernel. Hope you consider this, thanks!

Are there any other ROMS anyone would recommend?

Any opinions?

Hi guys :D

I just have one question: Is there any way to access the hidden menu of the optimus 2x on tonyp's CM10.1 ROM? (or any other CM10.1 rom)

I used that menu on ICS using the activities shortcut, but now i can't do it :(

By the way, i'm using the korean version of the Optimus 2x (the SU660) but i'm on the new bootloader with complete P990 software (and kowalski kernel for the SU660 to use the Physical home button)

Thanks in advance, guys! (and sorry for my english :rolleyes: )

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whoopass20:
I got a refurb S3 through a GeekSquad Black Tie warranty for a cracked screen. Since I had my initial S3 for about a year and LOVED how it worked since day 1, I never rooted it or put any aftermarket ROMs on it. I'd had my phone "just the way I like it" and ran my business on it so I didn't want to have ANY issues. I tried about 20 different ROMs on my Epic4G over the previous 2 years and LOVED the flexibility, so that tells you how much I liked the S3 stock.

When I got my refurb phone, I instantly rooted and put the newest LiquidSmooth on it since I was starting from scratch anyway. After a couple hours, I noticed that my data was TERRIBLE (all I ever got was "1x" unless wifi was connected... and I have a beautiful shiny new 4G tower about 1000 feet from my house) and that my battery would stay frozen at 100% until it would just die. I have since flashed back to Stock (rooted) and the data problem seems to have taken care of itself, but the battery still never drains.

I feel like an absolute idiot for not verifying full functionality of the phone before I flashed it, but is it likely that the phone is bad?

I never "charge" my phone (and never have with this phone). I have 2 identical batteries that I charge on a battery charger that I've been cycling evenly since the day I bought it. Am I missing a key step for calibrating the batteries with the new phone?

Sorry if this is a repeat n00b post, but after about 10 minutes of Googling, I got nothing.

FYI, I tried the Battery Calibration app from the market, but it didn't seem to do anything.

Thanks in advance!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whoopass20:
Ah, I hadn't seen the question, just the fact that it was moved.

Yes! The battery says it's 100% all the time until it dies. It did this with LiquidSmooth and after I went back to stock, Since the phone isn't aware that it's about to die, it just shuts off without going through the chime/vibrate/shutdown process and it can go unnoticed for quite some time if I'm working.

Any ideas?

Flash it back to stock and take it back.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] whoopass20:
Is it even possible that it's a hardware issue? The fact that it's a refurb isn't alarming at all? I flashed it back to the stock rom and then tried a different kernel after a couple days (as far as I can tell).

I only say this because it takes a day or 2 to get the phone "just how I like it" and get all my stuff copied back over.

Not being the super-savvy user, where are the stock sprint Odin files? I installed the stock rom (clearly the wrong one) through CWM.

Thanks again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Exactly why I said flash it back to stock triangle away to 0 and take it back. There's something wrong with the device itself.

here you can flash this and it does it all in one shot returns the stock rom, triangle away and stock recovery. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=31981341 and you do it all from custom recovery.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Torethyr:
Just got this phone, peeled off the protective plastic, and saw the spot while setting up my homescreens. Reboot did nothing. Doesn't appear in screenshots so not a software issue.

Here's an album of pictures I took. I boosted/cut the contrast on some images to make the spot clearer in pictures.

It gets more noticeable on bright colors and it fades on darks, and when the screen is black the spot disappears entirely. I ran a stuck pixel fixer video for a while, didn't do anything.

I bought it from T-Mobile. If it's defective, do I RMA through T-Mobile or Google?
