Nope M7 Single sim was not discontinued and that dual Sim is Not officially called M7 but only HTC One Dual d802...also that was a fail...from HTC

My friend has that One Dual still with him..and its available in some places to buy because HTC couldnot sell much and stock still persists some places...The mobile is good but HTC has epic fail Called "ULTRA PIXEL" crap 4 MP camera.
[Xperia Z3 General] unmaskedfalesh:
Also to make doubts clear...

Dual Sim Model D6633 doesnot support indian LTE band now having a LTE enabled device that doesnot support the LTE band in that region..doesnot sound reasonable in my opinion..so guys as of now please forget about dual sim variant...
[Xperia Z3 General] RohanM:
for me a dual sim is more imp than having LTE.. as I dnt hink 4G will be so cheap & wide spread in maharashtra...
[Xperia Z3 General] unmaskedfalesh:
I understand bro .that u want a dual sim device..

but you think yourself why would a company launch a device without support in any region?

also we cant always get everything in single device something we have to sacrifice right??

Hey Guys,

M a samsung guy, m currently using note 3, had note1 and note2 before

went to sony store today to look at z3 and my god, what a beautiful phone and display

i know how bad is touchwiz and i am a themer so changed each and every bit of touchwiz to suit my needs but still its touchwiz

didn't but z1 and z2 coz of display which was not good but z3 takes it to a new level and its so smooth without any lag, i still think that camera is not better than my note 3, but its fine i will still keep my note 3 with me

ok now the real question is, every store is offering z3 for 48,000 but i just checked ebay and ebay is giving diwali offer and i can get 1 for 43955 sealed pack with 1 yr india warranty

how can there be so much difference in price, will it be safe to buy from ebay and save 4000rs ?

here's the link :

http://www.ebay.in/itm/161437738546?_trksid=p2057890.m2703.l1

please advise

regards,

Gitin

[Xperia Z3 General] gitin:
Thank you Rohan for you reply, but now m thinking not to buy z3 because i will loose camera quality and few other things if i root, and i can't live without root

i was so about to buy this device yesterday at sony store coz it looks gorgeous and sound quality is too good and display also

but this bootloaded unlock and DRM keys which will effect camera quality and may be bravia engine etc, then what's the fun

what say ?

Gitin
[Xperia Z3 General] dj_richard05:
Mate if you have your heart on the phone just buy it. Our renowned developers might just make a workaround to sort this out. Its a brilliant phone. I'm waiting to root but waiting for a locked boot loader root..

[Xperia Z3 General] gitin:
Yes, i really want to buy this phone, but the thing is i can't imagine a single day without root, i got so many apps backup in titanium backup plus i do so much after rooting, i have almost changed each and every element of Touchwiz and i would like to play with z3 also...

but i can't be sure how long will it take for programmers to find a wayout to backup or restore DRM keys, any idea how long it might take ??

thanks

thank you, i'll buy z3 then and wait for the exploit. Can i use Helium to restore my backups which are in my sdcard? titanium backup files without root ?

thanks

gee
[Xperia Z3 General] dj_richard05:
Sadly helium only backs up the app data. So what I did was, I backed up my app data from my xperia Z and transferred that backup on my Z3. Then using app sharer I sent all my apps via Bluetooth from Z to Z3 and then restored data from helium. Took a lil while but got my work done without loosing data. Titanium backup is way easier but since there isn't root for lb this was the way to go for me. Cheers mate.

[Xperia Z3 General] TheDutt:
So I got a black one, finally! Upgraded from Z1.

Some observations/issues.

1. Icons are TOO big. Any fix for this?

2. White balance is a major issue! Why so blue??? I can't seem to find the perfect white balance settings. I've looked on the other threads too but couldn't find the right RGB values. Could someone please help me?

3. Camera app shows an error when started. "Recording in progress in another app. Cannot record." When I dismiss it, the camera works fine. I know it's an "OK Google" voice search issue.; I just wish they fix it soon.

Any help would be great! :)
[Xperia Z3 General] unmaskedfalesh:
Congratulations... Welcome to the Club bro....

Sorry no fix for large icons unless u change the launcher(I too dont like it)

But I have other options, for less price concerns.. Looking for lg g3 or xperia z2.

Please give me ur suggestions to choose the right one..

Most likely thinking of buying xperia z3
[Xperia Z3 General] unmaskedfalesh:
If you think more ...more u will get confuse better get Z3 or Note 4 if you want a bigger phone.

Or if lesser go for Z2..keep G3 at last option

Overheating

I am planning to buy this , is there any overheating issue while taking pics (not 4K , general pics)
[Xperia Z3 General] rdosti:
Sony's software development team is one of the worst you could possibly have on board. They create DRM's for the stupidest of all reasons and fail to fix things properly in software updates - rather destroy things. Its more of a catch up game for them. I've read multiple reviews that the camera is not up to the mark for a 20 MP shooter with a new wide lens! Just shows that they have produced a device to stay in front in terms of "quickness" without proper testing. If anyone wanted to complain about the iPhone bendgate - they should put the Sony through a under water test to realize there are problems there too. (Water Gate anyone!?)

---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

Over heating only takes place if you start using the flash and taking a lot of photos together. On the demo/trial unit I used 4K started over heating in 14 seconds.

During normal photos with flash, I had heating issues around the camera after about 8 photos one by one (fairly quickly).
[Xperia Z3 General] janardhannarayana:
is this issue everyone is facing pls reply who already bought this
[Xperia Z3 General] shethsa:
Rdosti - agree somewhat on the camera - the zoom is terrible , worse than my note 3 . Is there some setting for the zoom that I'm missing?

Underwater shots and videos are fine for me. Heating does happen fairly quickly but stabilises at 40 degrees.

Battery lasts for 22-24 hrs given my usage.

Not too many complaints yet.

Any idea where to get the charging dock in Mumbai ?

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Cyber Akuma:
I DO want the word predictions, suggestions, autocorrect, etc features.

What I absolutely cannot STAND, as well as cannot phantom why they thought it was a good idea, is how the stock keyboard will replace a word you typed correctly with a completely different word it assumed you "meant" to type, even when both words are in it's dictionary. The keyboard options seem to be an all-or-nothing deal from as far as I can tell, either I disable any and all types of correction and prediction features whatsoever, or leave them all on.

Yes, I know there are alternate keyboards, but I prefer the stock one. Is there any way to disable only this feature?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] drlzanej:
Settings/language and keyboard/Htc sense input/advanced. Its right there at the top it says "Word Prediction",un check the box
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Cyber Akuma:
I don't think that's the option I am thinking of. I am talking about how it will auto-replace the current word you are typing, even if it is spelled correctly AND in the phone's dictionary, by the word it thinks you MEANT to type. Not offering suggestions to what it thinks you are typing before you are done typing it, or autocorrecting misspelled words.

- When you are in the subway and your provider supports the mobile strenght with more antennas, just connect the modem and you're ready to go.​

- What do you need? -​

- A ROOTED ANDROID DEVICE (THIS IS A MUST!) - ANDROID 5.0.X & even some 5.1.X supported

[Android General] ISF:
You have to disable that option I thicked in the video, related to the network disable and try again. The FC-ing after reboot it's normal, there's nothing to be done about it. Just delete and set it again. Sorry for late reply, I was in my county with no signal at all. So to sum up, all you have to do is follow the same steps as I did in my video guys, without having to check that DISABLE MOBILE SUBSYTEM box.
