I have almost all the big names out there. I have the nexus 4 orb charger and the nexus 5 charger. The energizer and LG verizon branded one. I also have the Tylt Vu. Now I have the AirDock in the car.

To me multiple coils is a feature and not really required. The only one I have that has multiple coils is the Tylt Vu. Its good, but has a big footprint so that charger remains next to my alarm clock and LG G Watch charging set up. I have the LG verizon charger that my wife uses for the Nexus 4. and I use the Nexus 5 pad at work because that had the smallest footprint. I have used various cases with each of these chargers, including the airdock. From the Spigen Ultra Hybrid to the Nexus 4 replica bumper for the Nexus 5, they all work. Sure the Tylt can charge my phone horizontally, but that's it really. lol.

I guess to answer your question, the cheapest multi coil? Well even though this technically not a mulit coil, it does locate your coil for you on your qi compatible device. Pretty neat IMO.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] sebr:
Thanks for your answer. The Panasonic charger is, according to most reviews, not supporting trickle charging. If the device is charged completely the coil returns to initial position and the battery dicharges. In some cases there is also the charging coil repeatedly moving to the device and back to parking position again. Plus for some odd reason it is only available from Japan as direct import.

Tylt VU is way too overpriced, although the concept behind it seems great. Even the clone is too expensive.

So far the Nillkin Energy Stone looks good. Just cannot sind any serious reviews of it. Also only shipping from HK only which could be a problem due to strict german customs here :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] victorclaessen:
Hi guys,

sorry if this seems a silly question, but I really looked to see if I could find any info on this...but I might be just bad at searching?

Anyway, with the apologies behind us, here goes:

Is there any way to know (either from the version number or by any of you telling me) which AKU version the ROMS posted here have?

I currently have AKU 2.3 (in my 1.18.255.3 ROM, date 05/30/06, radio 1.03.03.10, 1.04 bootloader QTEK_001 CID) and am considering upgrading.

Do any of these roms contain a newer AKU version? If so, which?

As long as I have your attention anyway: I've been reading a lot on upgrading on this (GREAT) forum, but it's slightly confusing: Am I correct in assuming that if I SUPER-CID my Hermes and flash it with a newer ROM with bootloader 1.09, that I can always go back to bootloader 1.04? Or is it that once I load 1.09 then I'm stuck with it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
See here:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades

The column named "OS Build":

- if it ends in 2.3.0 means it's an AKU 2.3

- if it ends in 2.6.0 means it's an AKU 2.6 (currently only cingular's 1.31 rom)

By now, If you flash 1.09 you're stuck with it unless you use some "illegal" files that where removed from this forum some time ago. I am working on a new solution to downgrade, but is not ready yet...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ionide:
Has anyone compared the 1.31 (aku2.6) and 1.35(aku2.3) roms yet? Any differences in speed or handling?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] victorclaessen:
Hey thanks pof!

Ok in hindsight it seems logical to look at the build date for the AKU but I really overlooked that...DOH!

So I guess the best thing for the moment would be to wait for either a AKU 3.2 ROM or a way to revert bootloader 1.09 to 1.04.

As far as I understand it now: If I flash this Cingular AKU 2.6 ROM now I will get bootloader 1.09 and therefore I won't be able to upgrade to a AKU 3.2 ROM unless it happens to be a AKU 3.2 ROM with the same CID (from Cingular in this case, because that's the only AKU 2.6 ROM)

Check?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ionide:
Not necessarily, you could CID-unlock your phone first.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] victorclaessen:
so you mean that if I CID unlock my phone first, then flash it to a new ROM with bootloader 1.09, that it would still be possible to flash it back to some ROM with bootloader 1.04?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ionide:
That is possible, but not directly. After upgrading to a rom with 1.09, you have to downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 via this method. After that you can flash any rom you want, or upgrade your radio-rom only, as i did.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rsolomon:
Wait, I thought even the imei-check method did NOT work on Bootloader 1.09. The Cingular ROM 1.34 is Bootloader 1.06 - so it should work there, but I thought NOT on Bootloader 1.09.

Am I confused?

Richard
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
Yes, if and only if you CID Unlock first you'll be able to flash ANY rom with bootloader 1.04 when you are on 1.09, BUT after the update the bootloader version will still be 1.09.

This is only needed if you want to go back to bootloader 1.04, but not really necessary if you are happy with 1.09.

It works on 1.06 and 1.09.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rsolomon:
Ok, I think I got the radio rom issue confused with the bootloader - since they showed up in the same bulk pack upgrader.

Thanks for the clairification!

Richard
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ionide:
I couldn't upgrade my radio rom with 1.09, after downgrading to 1.04 i could. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] patmannyc:
I have the 8525, installed obviously is the newer ROM, but 2.3 AKU. Is the other ROM/AKU 2.6 package worth trying? I know there were only few updates w/2.6, why did they go back to 2.3 with the newer ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] silent_killa:
Tried a few different ROMs on mine. Have found that the new 1.35 HTC South African ROM seems to work the best for me.

Thread is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=284043&page=3

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] patmannyc:
Thaks for the advice. I have upgraed to this ROM.

How do I set up the phone for data connections now that I am using this ROM? Do I have to set up manually? I triede unlocking and replacing the extended ROM w/Cingulars, but it didn't set up the 3g connection for me. I had to do it manually. Did I miss a few files? I'd hate to have to google the settings every time I hard reset...

Send it in for repair?

This should be a warranty issue. No software issue so theres nothing we can do here ;)

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schlengge:
If you did not cause it by like smashing it against a wall on purpose they will not charge you.

Thats what a warranty is there for.

If you want to make sure, just ask in your shop / email your shop and ask them.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
I think some stocks got QC problem, especially some early stocks. This usually happen on all Sony flagship phones, so better not to buy any new model immediately.... lol
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vampyre_masq:
I actually work for a phone company in Australia and had someone come in with this issue. TBH physical damage is defined by a cracked screen and no matter how many times you say you didn't do it the outcome will be the same (if only you knew the stories ive heard). Unless Sony publicly admits fault then any repair centre will charge for physical damage. I advised my customer to speak to Sony directly to get a case open and to send the handset directly to Sony repair once they say they will fix it.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schlengge:
That sounds like complete bs from Sony right there. I hope everybody who experiences this will get a proper repair.

Hello [MENTION=5048832]constantine243[/MENTION],

I'm so sorry to hear that your phone got a cracked screen.

This issue have been seen on other Xperia devices too, such as Xperia Z1, Z and Z2. Usually these types of issues are caused by a construction fault, which causes a lot of pressure on the glass which can cause the screen to shatter.

This should however be covered by warranty, but you might have to argue a bit as there is a lot of customers who lie about cracked screens.

I hope this issue gets resolved, and have a good day,

GethPrime
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
I had a similar issue which was caused by physical damage, but the touch stopped working for me as well. A friend had a similar issue, also with a Z1C.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsx1984:
It's not Sony's fault for a few cracked screens here and there.It's your own carelessness in 99.99% of the times if this were to happen to you.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
That's not true and a very uneducated, inflammatory opinion.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] New Folder:
It's then user fault when Sony's thermal throttle is not working as it's supposed to causing internal temperature to raise too high?

As most materials expand on high temps especially battery, then it's no wonder they push the glass screen from inside resulting sudden crack.

The phone gets really hot in poor coverage areas and doesn't stop searching until it finds good signal. So this theory imo bases some truth.

It's better for Sony and worse for customer to put all cracked screens on USER FAULT.

Cause if they admit this problem, then they are forced to replace thousands of screens and they really can't tell if it was actually caused by accident or by phones overheating.

There is no solution for this problem because the design is flawed.

Bonus: Or just wear it in your back pocket.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsx1984:
First I would like to point out that I am only talking about the Z1 Compact and not the Z1 or Z2 or any other Sony phone.

If you really think that was the reason for a few cracked screens we would see a LOT more people reporting this , just like it was with the flash bleed . Now that was a big design flaw. An other design flaw is the water proofing : again on this front you see a lot o people complaining...

I have searched for people that reported this problem for the Z1 compact and I could only find 2 people (the OP of this thread and one in the comment section of this article )

P.S. [MENTION=5007196]Iruwen[/MENTION] : I fail to see what you added to this conversation
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
More than your baseless accusations against everybody (ok, against 99,99% of everybody). While there are of course people lying about what happened, this is not a typical issue of the Z1 Compact but of tempered glass in general which is under extreme internal pressure and may crack under rare occasions. And even if additional external pressure was applied, e.g. by sitting on it, it shouldn't crack.

I don't like your aggressive attitude. Sony doesn't need a White Knight here.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] constantine243:
Thankz for the response, i am collecting all comments on various forums about users problem, and will make a case file and then visit the sony service center hope they understand, the crack is not visible from the from but at tilting angles
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marsx1984:
At least we agree it's not a Z1 Compact problem...

"And even if additional external pressure was applied, e.g. by sitting on it, it shouldn't crack." -> no warranty would ever cover that crack if you tell the truth about how it happened. I think you really need to re-evaluate your expectations of mobile phones.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
You're missing the point, I'm aware that the cracking of the screen was my own fault, I'm talking about that cracking the screen causes the phone to be unusable due to the touch only being usable on one side of the crack post-issue.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
Well that's to be expected since the touch digitizer sits directly underneath the glass and is quite fragile.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rekoil:
So why doesn't this happen with Apple or Samsung devices when their screens crack?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Iruwen:
Different materials, display types, internal wiring, additional layers, coincidence... your sample size is way too small, crack 1000 or 10000 displays of each device and see what happens then.

Screen crack repaired

I had a cracked screen, a small hairline crack, horizontal, about two thirds of the way up the screen. I don't know how it happened, I didn't sit on it or drop it or use it any way out of the ordinary.

At first I didn't see it and couldn't understand why the top half of the screen had stopped responding.

I called Sony support and logged a case for unresponsive screen. After trying all the things they suggested it was agreed to send it back to the support centre.

A week later they sent it back to me with a repaired screen.

Sony are the best. There aren't any other manufacturers out there who do screen fixes for nothing.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucephalus00:
I discovered a small hairline crack / blemish near the bottom / left of my z1 compact today. I don't recall having any accidents with this phone, certainly no droppages or collisions, and I've only had it for seven days. the first time I noticed it was after it had been on charge for a while.

Although, probably not being fair to myself here, I'm not ruling out the keys in my pocket contacting the screen so it could be a scratch. Either way, I don't want to be staring at the 1/2 inch line for the next two years.

Should I send it in to Sony? If so, is there a way they can actually tell if it is due to poor workmanship and fix the phone FOC? Or do they only do that to customers that complain the loudest?

I love the phone btw

Just came back from an authorized Sony service centre in Mumbai for cracked / broken screen. They said my screen and motherboard needs to be replaced, screen i understood, but when i told thme to explain how on earth do I need the motherboard replaced so they had no definitive or technical answer to it, which i wasn't surprised, btw. :) Since, in my opinion if at all

motherboard was damaged it would not have even started, rather, it was just plainly on for all this while at the service centre and otherwise.

They quoted me Rs. 18k for both. I said just replace the screen not motherboard and gimme the estimation, that's when started tell, sir you have rooted your phone that's why motherboard got damaged and all. I laughed my ass off and told him give me back phone just as it, i'll get it repaired from UN-authorized service centre :)

Now tomorrow i'll go to the an Un-authorized service centre, wish me luck. hahaha

P.S I've promised myself not to buy anything above $300-$350 phone and if i ever become a millionaire, I'd rather hire a hot secretary than, to buy an above $300-$350 phone.

What do you say mates?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Didgesteve:
Not sure why you sent a rooted phone back to a Sony service center. It would have taken all of twenty minutes to wipe it and put a stock rom back on, then there would have been no issues with warranty.

Not unless you had lost your TA keys.

I had my screen replaced by Sony for free. I had to un-root my phone before I sent it back, but you should factory reset your phone before sending it to any repair shop, you wouldn't want any strangers looking at your pictures/contacts.

A new Z1c screen should cost $50, there are lots of screen change videos on youtube, why not fix it yourself?

Hi all,

I've recently replaced my N7105 screen assembly. I am able to turn the phone on, but the screen remains entirely blank. However, it responds to touch and appears to be working - only no image is displayed on the screen.

I suspect I've damaged a component on installation of the new screen, or have incorrectly connected it to the logic board. The replacement screen was from etradesupply and I imagine is almost definitely not an official Samsung component - is their any chance of driver incompatibility?

I've demonstrated the problem and displayed the connectors in this short video:
