But my dad wants a compact fone. Saw the Sony E4g today at Sony store. Awesome compact fone with an awesome processor. I loved it.

Pic below Sony E4 (5 in.) & E4g (4.7 in.). E4g has the better processor with MT6752 vs E4's MT6582.

im going to service center today

any tell me which is sony main service center:confused:
[Xperia Z1 General] 301stSpartan:
What city?
[Xperia Z1 General] japjit100:
Delhi
[Xperia Z1 General] Dpk1:
As far as I know, the Sony Xperia Service Center at Lajpat Nagar is listed as official sony service center in Delhi (most others are authorised ones). I've had relatively better customer service experience there. BTW, would you mind telling what is the issue are you facing with the Z1? Also, please keep us updated about how it went with the service center.

On a side note, the new .534 update seems to have sorted some bugs. No screen lock unlock issue faced so far, headphone sound via 3rd party video players (MX player) seems tremendously improved. Button on the supplied headphones (other headphones) work good now. Phone seems to be heating lot less & I think battery backup has also improved, will post screenshot later on.

Z1 Cheaper price in Delhi ?

If anyone has bought Z1 from Delhi, can they help me to find a cheaper price there...

I am getting price of Rs 41.5K at Sony Showroom, D Mall, Netaji Subash Palace, Delhi.

Any cheaper price than above for Xperia z1 in Delhi, let me know please...

P.S. my recently replaced Xperia Z went for Rs 27K.
[Xperia Z1 General] DeathlessOne:
27k for Xperia Z??!! You must be terribly lucky mate!!
[Xperia Z1 General] ruchirtrehan:
I live in delhi too, dint went to buy the phone but just to check it out at lajpat nagar sony showroom, price is 39500 with those free case and charger.
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
yup 27K for XZ...mine was 2 months old, got a new replaced handset...the new one came in whole sealed packed box, had a new bill with it but warranty from older date. So they gave me only 27K :p

any answer my query if you know...
[Xperia Z1 General] Dpk1:
I think you got a relatively good deal for your XZ :good:! How old was your XZ & did you sell it to somebody personally or online like olx? Anyway I think 41.5k by sony center is good price. I got mine on the first day @ 44k from sony center (got 24.2k resale for my 5 month old XZ).
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
Rs 39.5 K really ? and with the whole offer case + charger + accidental warranty ?

Is this where you went ? SONY CENTER, II K 45 LAJPAT NAGAR NEW DELHI - 110024
[Xperia Z1 General] ruchirtrehan:
Yup exactly that place, no idea about accidental warranty, but yeah with charger and case for 39.5K
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
yup 27K for XZ...mine was 2 months old, got a new replaced handset...the new one came in whole sealed packed box, had a new bill with it but warranty from older date. So they gave me only 27K.

Sold to Xperia Center shops, not official Sony showroom, but centers like which sell Xperia phones.

---------- Post added at 09:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 PM ----------

great deal :) i'll be calling them tomorrow sure and will ask the price if it is still there, then will grab it...

i hope accidental warranty is there, its like icing on cake :)

any other place you know...
[Xperia Z1 General] eggman89:
So guys, I'm planning to buy it from Bangalore.

The sony showroom in Indiranagar is saying 42.9 k with the goodies.

Which place is giving the best deal.
[Xperia Z1 General] DeathlessOne:
Do you know what? I got a new replacement in a sealed box too. Just 2 weeks old. But the guy gave just 24k for it after negotiating with him for a while. Again - You should be way way terribly lucky :)
[Xperia Z1 General] ruchirtrehan:
I am also planning to buy this, but I guess already too many devices, I am thinking to sell of XPERIA SP to sony, just wonder how much I could get of a 2 month old XSP, gota go and find out tomorrow. :confused:
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
yes sure, i'll buy after confirming from them about accidental warranty...
[Xperia Z1 General] Dpk1:
Exactly.

[MENTION=4210661]ImAnurag[/MENTION] - Do check with them if they are offering the accidental cover. 39.5k for brand new Z1 with all the accessories @ sony center seems too good to be true, but who knows? Good luck.
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
yes, the person above also mentioned all things but not accidental warranty, will call them up tomorrow to know about it...if it is there than it's an awesome deal :)

U can try Settings - Notifications - App Notifications.
[Xperia Z1 General] vignesh207:
I didn't get any emails.. I also checked in xperia support app if there is someway to register for that. But couldn't find any.

I plugged my phone to my pc and the pc companion showed update available.

Few weeks back i met with an accident in which my phone bent in the shape of literally 'C' :( (thus saving me from injury, thanks to it). I gave it to sony center to get it repaired (it costs me several green currency). But again its display and digitizer are broken. :crying:

Now the problem is, i want to repair it myself this time but unable to find any sites in India from where i can get spare parts (mainly OEM one).

so plz suggest any sites from where i can get that. :confused:
[Xperia Z1 General] alanjolly123:
You can check ebay.com for spares of digitizer and display-yeah oem ones.. There are some sellers who offer free international shipping though it may take some time..

Don't search in ebay India.. Go directly to eBay.com.. You'll be good then. :)

Hit thanks if I helped you..

[Xperia Z1 General] darsh11192:
You need flashtool.. If you have unlocked the bootloader this flashtool will unlock without any problem.. Orelse other option is downgrade to kitkat.. Unlock bootloader And upgrade to lollipop..

Is there write restrictions in on the latest update?

My sd card apps seem to be not working :'(

Update: Everything's working perfectly after a restart. New close all button is awesome. Sony has ironed all the small niggles with the previous version. OS has become blazing fast. Apps open & close in an instant. It has become too smooth.. Loving it. Awesome update from Sony.. :)

Hi All, this is the current usage now with lollipop for me.. Getting around 3 hours screen in time!

Used to get 5 hours solid with Kitkat!

Any help on this guys

Yeah... There is something that drains battery alot... In night it drains like 5-6% though i enable stamina mode.. Idk the reason.. And one thing which annoys me in lollipop is the low volume.. Sometimes when i check the phone that time i knows that i had a call.. I hope sony improves and makes loud volume in 5.1 update

Hi guys, mods.

Need help.

Urgent.

My original Sony Xperia Z1 charger died yesterday. I don't know what happened but it stopped charging all together.

Need suggestions for a new charger.

Should I get the original one or go for a high power - 2A?

Thanks again.
[Xperia Z1 General] darsh11192:
Go for original... Dont go beyond 1.5a.. It might damage your battery

Xperia Z1 Broken :(

Guys, my xperia z1 fell face down on hard floor and the screen cracked and the touch is not working above the crack.

Visited the service center here (Chennai) they said 10k for replacement, at least 25 days (no replacement phone will be given) and water proofing will be gone after repair. :(

Any suggestions ??
[Xperia Z1 General] darsh11192:
Buy other phone for 10k... Like Mi note or yuphoria... Better options rather than repairing screen.. I would buy other phone instead of repair
[Xperia Z1 General] vignesh207:
Yeah!! Just ordered a galaxy s4 for 15k. My friend got it recently and just feel in love for the 1080p Super AMOLED
[Xperia Z1 General] onkesh:
Try the after market repair. You can easily get it done for under ₹5k. Post that, get a tempered glass screen protector and a decent back cover.

You'll have this phone up and running for atleast 6 months.

Then, get a new phone if something breaks down again.

Why invest ₹5k and not buy a new phone?

Things are going to get cheaper as new phones keep coming into the market.
[Xperia Z1 General] vignesh207:
Cool will try that out! :)

You can expect atleast 1month.. Last month in july when i read about the update they wrote 1month.. Afterall cant say they will release.. No fix time
[Xperia Z1 General] nifty_mats:
Sad to hear that. Always, keep your touchscreen phone in a bumper case at least! Kyunki agar kuch crack hua to minimum Rs.10k ka chuna lagega.!

Btw bought this amazing phone from Snapdeal for my father. He loves it too much. The name is Coolpad Dazen 1. 3rd largest brand of China. 2gb ram, 4g lte, SD 410 64-bit, dual sim, etc for just Rs.5,999/-. You can take a look at it. Just suggesting..
[Xperia Z1 General] onkesh:
5.1.1 will be the last official update for Xperia Z1. Irrespective where ever it is in the world.

Sony has released it for almost every other phone except this flagship.

It feels frustrating now. Honestly, I was really happy with the previous version.
[Xperia Z1 General] crohit911:
Wut! I'll definitely get one. Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 General] nifty_mats:
Awesome phone mate. You won't regret it. Buttery smooth performance. Also, feels like a premium phone. Gifted it to my dad..!!
[Xperia Z1 General] nifty_mats:
Hi guys,

I'm thinking of finally going for the Sony Z5 dual. Any inside thoughts from any of you out here about the phone.

I initially thought of going for Samsung S6, but later changed my ming after hearing that even a 2 day old S6 lags.! I think Sony might be the best smooth performing Android phone out there with durability alongside HTC.
[Xperia Z1 General] crohit911:
I'm assuming you're talking about the Z5 dual and not M5 dual, anyway I just checked the phone in gsmarena and believe me I've never seen a touchscreen candybar that beautiful in (20 years of) my life. What's better is the power button's shape, I feel it'll help in accessibility and usability, The camera has also bumped by 2 MPs or so.. however there are two things you'd like to consider before buying it.

1- Volume button's are now placed below the power button which I feel would be difficult to access. You can always check that in store.

2- The phone uses 2nd revision of snapdragon 810 chipset (not sure) but the older chipset had issues, with high resource demand, the thermal throttling brought down the performance to prevent overheating and eventually frying the chipset. However, the revised version manages heat better which means that the problem shouldn't exist on this one. But how much better?

The only way to find out is trying it in-store.

All the best mate!

P. S. - I shall update if I get to try it in-store.
[Xperia Z1 General] nifty_mats:
Ya, man. Z5 is an awesome phone. I think only thing missing is 4gb of ram, just to be even with the competition. But, it's ok as an iphone makes do with just 1gb!

Oh! Now, I get it. Till now I was wondering what is the fuss about the whole yellow tint thing :confused:! Thanks for the pics. Now, yours definitely looks yellowish compared to your laptop screen (considering that lappy screen is neutral white). I suggest you have it checked @ lajpat nagar, but if rohini falls nearby then have it a go. But, I don't think they'll acknowledge your issue until they see it compared to another Z1 (with better whites). I think mine is a bit whiter than yours but I don't have any well caliberated screen to compare it to right now. Below is a photo of my screen in dark (sorry for blurry pic), save it on your lappy & compare it to your uploaded pics. Hope it helps. Keep us posted about how it goes.
[Xperia Z1 General] japjit100:
How many people got yellow tint in screen?
[Xperia Z1 General] ImAnurag:
hey i just called them to know about the price, they said the price is Rs 42.9K and 39.5K was never the price on their shop :(

Have you confirmed it ?

Joshi Sons... Savitri market.

ok so accidental warranty is there for all, nothing special given for that. 40k sure naa ?

is this the address F-8, 1st Floor, Savitri Market, Sector-18, Noida , DL 201301 ??
[Xperia Z1 General] DeathlessOne:
Your bill is the accidental warranty claim code. So if you purchase form any authorized Xperia Store/Sony Centre/Flipkart/Infibeam etc, then you are entitled to receive the protection. No additional card or statement of any kind will be provided. Ex. If you buy from an Xperia Store after Sept 15 and if you done something wrong with your device within a period of 6 months, go to an authorized service center and show them only the bill and claim your free replacement, that's it.
[Xperia Z1 General] anmolbedi:
Yep. That's right.
[Xperia Z1 General] amankapoor4:
so what exactly is covered in accidental warranty which is not covered in normal warranty.
[Xperia Z1 General] DeathlessOne:
Braking the device or screen.

Dropping or any physical damages caused by us.

Water and other liquid related damages.

Except losing the device to someone/ or somewhere everything is covered.

For ex. If someone drops the device from a building and the screen gets shattered coupled with heavy dents all over the device (Obviously it will), he may take it to the service centre with the bill and they will offer you a free replacement, no questions asked. The same occurs for liquid damages as well for 6 months.
