[General Topics] Peteshoard:
Is there a way of connecting a Mini S to Active Sync Via Wifi on an intenal lan?

Also how do you connect to use files from your Mini S remotely? eg on wifi and out and about using GPRS?
[General Topics] AlanJC:
No, you currently can't use WiFi to use ActiveSync because it was not encrypted, and posed a risk to corporate customers, and individuals that could be exposing all data, contacts, calendar events that were synchronised etc.

It's something they will add again in the future, no precise word yet though.

As for access files, what do you mean, your own files at home?

I find the easiest way to access files on the move is to use Gmail, and store files I want to readily access as draft copies, then I can access it from home, work, or my PDA, and it means I don't have to leave a system running with shares open, or hosting it on a website that may not be secure etc.

Another thing you could consider would be to use a service like http://live.mail2web.com and get pushmail running on your device, that way, anything you sent to your mail2web email address would turn up almost instantly on your device, calendar events etc too, and you could edit your contacts and calendar online. It would be seen as an Exchange server connection on your ActiveSync on your PC, and the two would synchronise quite happily when you plugged in.

I use this solution with the same account on my two devices, and because any changes on the device are synched online as and when you do it, they are never out of sync, so my PC doesn't end up with any conflicts.
[Moto G General] davidnj11:
So the Samsung Galaxy Avant came out recently, and I noticed that it has the same processor and same graphics. Since those are the most important parts when you port a rom, I figured it would be the best choice to use when porting a Touchwiz rom to the Moto g. I gave it a try and it failed, but I'm not nearly as advanced in this as some of you guys. Just a small tip for those of you that actually want Touchwiz on here. :D
[Moto G General] josip-k:
Does it have same size and resolution? That's the most important thing for porting manufacturer roms.

[Moto G General] davidnj11:
It doesn't have the same resolution unfortunately... They're both 4.5 inch screens but I think the avant is hdpi.
[Moto G General] beeeto:
Why would you ever want Touchwiz? That thing is the slowest and sluggish piece of bloatware ever made.

You should ve thankful having stock Android in our Moto G.
[Moto G General] davidnj11:
True, it's not as fast. And yes I'm glad we have stock, but in my opinion, its too bare. Not mentioning the fact that its something new for the device. Everyone likes different things. :)
[Moto G General] geovala:
Maybe it isn't so good idea (for me)! If i want TouchWiz i'll buy a Samsung!
[Moto G General] Jhdoubleoseven:
CarbonROM

If you don't like stock Android's bare feeling, use Carbon ROM! Lots of customisation options there, including one to have a quick-settings ribbon like TouchWiz. But honestly I had my buddy go for CM11 for his GS2 due to the fact that TouchWiz looked horrible (not it mention it was 4.1! :o )

Ive got two things where im not sure if that are real Problems or just a question of settings.

I'd assume that more than 90% of units have no major issues. The misleading thing is that, in communities like these, people with faulty units are far more represented than people who are satisfied.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qbert456:
Honestly, I didn't really use it,it kept all the plastic films on etc. It's not that I'm not going to get one if it proves reliable more that I'm quite unlucky with phones generally!

I will keep looking in here tho and will likely getting a red/orange one again in a few weeks....
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] degraaff:
I suggest you just get a silicone cover or something, to protect it. A wrist lanyard also helps a lot. And to increase your chance of getting a Z3C from a more recent production batch, you can keep an eye on a web shop and order a Z3C after the stock runs out and is restocked.

Camera Button

Is the Z3c hardware camera button designed to require a fairly lengthy press to activate? I'm guessing that maybe it's a design built in to perhaps avoid accidental pocket presses, but I'm not sure.

Just a quick tap does not activate it on mine, but it works fine with a slightly longer press.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clintyboy12:
Mine too, also there seems to be a 2-step press for it, as on a regular camera (half hold down to focus). Half pressing doesn't start it.

Have had to mess with settings to turn off the quick launch which was set to launch and capture as I have so many pics of either a finger or blackness!

---------- Post added at 05:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

On mine the sound is pretty loud through the mic, so much so that I thought the loudspeaker was on! Conversely though the actual loudspeaker doesn't seem that loud! Go figure!

For the battery I think you would only get 2 days with the Stamina settings active. I manage to get down to about 25% on a full day of regular usage (in office etc). The Stamina / Ultra stamina modes seem to just disable pretty much everything on the phone. OK if you need to keep it powered on but no good for regular usage. I've ended up turning stamina mode on and then re-enabling Wifi, seems to improve life quite a bit for the times I have been hammering it!

I'm currently on my third unit within 7 days. My Internet connection seems to hang about 2 or 3 times a day, and until I try to use the Internet Is don't realise. After then restarting my phone, I get a flood of whatsapps, emails and fb alerts. It's getting really old really quickly,to the point where I just want rid of the phone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clintyboy12:
I've only had that once, last Fri however it is a bit weird, here's how mine manifested itself:

- Work most of the day in an office, good wifi connection. Don't use the phone much but see that it is working OK, getting emails, fb updates etc. Can browse the internet via Chrome

- Left the office and try to do a search. Using Google search from the home screen the results showed up very quickly but then when I tried to open any of those links in chrome it would just say no network or something similar. Tried shutting down chrome, clearing cache and data but made no difference.

The weird thing here is that the 4g / mobile data connection WAS working, but the issue was with Chrome.

I'm still stock, not likely to change that but since Chrome is now an intrinsic part of the Xperia build how do you uninstall / reinstall? Or do I end up installing another browser?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tudork:
Chrome has done this to me on Z3 Compact and a few times on my previous Xperia ZR. Just close the browser from the multi-app right button by flicking it to the side, then try again. If it gets too tedious, install another browser.
