[Xperia Z1 Compact General] monoelectron:
i could see it happening easily enough myself. this is the first phone iv had with a shiny back on it. my last phone was a cheap samsung so the plastic makes it easier to grip. it would be even worse with cold hands id say. ill probably try and get some skin for the back of it when they are out, something with a bit of texture on it would be better. and it would cover the logo too!

what does the screen feel like with out the screen protector on it? its just regular glass? and did the logo come off?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] darksideauto:
The logo did come off. Its kinda cool. The glass underneath feels harder and less slick I guess. It's hard to explain but the glass underneath doesn't grab fingerprints and oil and dust as much as the film did. Also when there are finger prints and smudges you can't see them as much when the display is on. I took the film off my xperia ion as well.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] darksideauto:
I tried taking pictures with a moto electrify and an HTC one. Neither can pull a good enough macro shot to see the damage.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] nataS555:
I've dropped my Xperia Ray couple of hundred times,I think this one will suffer the same destiny :cool: Thats why I'm kind of relieved bout the fact that rear of z1c is just plastic,bought a case ofcourse immediately after purchase of this gem of phone. Couldn't be happier.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] IAmBrock:
This will be the second time sending my phone back for repair and last time they sent me a brand new phone and I lost everything hopefully they can fix my screen on my phone and send my phone back instead of sending me a new one. I love this phone but I have had more problems with it than any other phone I have ever had. But here is what happened. I had it in my pocket as usual. Same jeans I have been wearing for a while and I had just took it out to send a message to one of my friends. I put it back in my pocket and didn't do any moving or anything when it vibrated letting me know I had another message. I pulled out my phone and turned it on from sleep mode and i noticed the inside was cracked. I almost stated crying because it had not been a month from the last time i sent it in and the long time i spent talking to people on the phone and eventually getting a new phone shipped to me. I did get the next day after talking to several representatives and finally getting a new phone. This time I hope is different and I hope everything goes smoothly. It is just ridiculous that a phone this expensive has so many problems. I have a galaxy s2 that I am using now and the only thing wrong with it is the back cover has a crack in it and a little bit in the bezel. Other than that it works perfectly fine. I thought the build quality was way better on the xperia. I guess not. Apparently they are having this problem with a lot of xperia z ultras. Maybe I will get it fixed for free. The thing I hate about it is waiting 7 - 14 days. I am not a very patient person at all. I hope this does not happen a 3rd time. I love this phone so much and I hate losing it for a week to two weeks. It is my baby and I cant go without it. I will miss it while it goes on its trip to and from sony. :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Ouch, that sucks! It's bad enough to send it in for repairs once, but twice? Hell no. It's a known fact that some Sony Z devices (not just the Ultra) have some kind of

manufacturing error that causes the screen to crack. It's bad enough to get a device that has this issue once, but you got a new one, and then it happens again? Ouchy!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
First of all, I know how you feel, because my phone too had to go on warranty.

But, but, please breath man, you haven't used a single comma in the whole paragraph!

Last but not least, you can't compare two incredibly different phones like the GS2 and the ZU.

It's like comparing apples to alligators.

They're too different in all departments.

And the build quality is amazing on the ZU, but as an enormous phone, it has an enormous screen, and that is so thin you have to take care of it.

My wife has a Z and it's been on the ground more than in her hands, but it doesn't have a single scratch.

This is a 6mm thin phone, I take it out of ANY pocket when I'm sitting down, and if I don't, I don't bend even if I lose a 500 euros banknote. ;)

The GS2 has been an amazing phone, the first of the Samsung rising as one of the world leaders on mobile phones market, but let's face it, you couldn't go back to it from a ZU even if paid.

Well, I sure as hell won't go back to anything that has the Samsung logo on it, but hey, maybe they'll go the Sony way or HTC way and make a glass/aluminum phone, with a build quality of a real flagship.

:)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
You too!? What the... :p
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
You don't remember my odyssey? I'm disappointed in you, son.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
No, not really :p Seems like a lot of people have had their Ultras in for repairs (including me) in the last few weeks, so i have no idea anymore :p
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
Mine had the back lifted a bit, and I messed around too much with SetCPU bricking it, so I sent it back and they gave me a new one in exchange. :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Lucky guy! My technician didn't do anything. He was supposed to swap the display, but instead, he did a factory reset and wiped fingerprints off the phone. Quality bull**** right there. It's working great as usual, but the screen doesn't like "low" temperatures, but i guess i'll live with it. It's february now, so it's slowly starting to heat up outside.

Service rating: 0/10
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fastest83:
By the time I sent mine back it was like a month from the release, and since I bought it from Clove in the UK, but I live in Italy, and they weren't on sale here yet, they simply exchanged it because, according to them, they didn't have the knowledge to repair them yet, and Sony explicitly told them to give a new one in exchange. :D

i would like to begin development for this device. can someone please provide me with a clean system dump? i do not yet have the device in hand. all you would need to do is update to the official OTA 161.44.25.ghost_row.Retail.en.US. then you need to re-flash a custom recovery and then flash SuperSU. then you would use ADB to pull the /system. if you need better instructions, i will be happy to write them.

i'm extremely shocked to see there's no XT1053 4.4.2 ROM in the dev section. what is going on??? haha

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Vinotas:
Hello all,

Semi-noob here, I've rooted and flashed my phone to the Stable version of Cynogenmod, on Android 4.1.2. I haven't added the Lightning Kernel, only because of a pretty annoying issue: the phone randomly shuts down for no apparent reason. I ran a search and didn't see much about this issue so here goes: doesn't matter what's going on with the phone, it will suddenly (and very randomly) freeze for a moment, then go black, the Samsung logo will appear, it'll vibrate, then kaput.

To turn it back on, I have to do one of 2 things:

-hold the Power button for a LONG time;

-remove battery, reinsert, hold Power button normally.

So what gives? Did I flash something wrong? Should I reflash the ROM? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers!

I've had similar issues with CM10 "stable". I knew the rom was at fault. I haven't tried the nightlies, but that would have been my next guesses too. I've been looking for a daily driver, and despite some hiccups with MIUI, I've been pretty happy with it.

Hey Guys, I'm a complete newb my phone won't turn on - I've read other threads on XDA with no answer =(

I have a galaxy nexus (unmodified) it started to turn off every now and than just yesterday, today it totally shut off on me and when I turn it on it won't turn on, unless I plug it in remove the battery and than press the power button - however it won't boot up from the battery logo.

I can't boot into any recovery mode, either after I pop the battery in while plugged it goes to the lightening-battery symbol to a full battery symbol and does nothing (turns off?) I tried the steps to get into boot recovery mode with no luck (holding down volume and power at the same time after popping battery in for a few seconds)

Any help? I'd greatly appreciate any help! The phone is stock (unmodified), over a year old, tried to call service provider no help on their hand, I'm willing to get lo of the data on my phone and I'm a COMPLETE NEWB, but I am technical.

Google has android device manager that can remotely locate your phone, even wipe the data on it if you want. It can even play a siren from your phone if you lost it in the couch or something and you have it on silent.

Why don't you unlock and install a custom rom to get the full benefit? Rooting won't do that much to give you back speed.

If you want to get some performance back on pure stock. Do this:

1. Boot into the boot loader by holding down volume down and power

2. On rck icon hit vol up

3. Hit volume up down and power until a menu pops up

4. choose wipe cache

5. reboot

I don't know why it works but it will buy you back about a week until it slows down again. Then just do it again.
