Yeah I will try to get in contact with Sony through internet. Can't do the water test since there's no Sony in my country, only licensed retailers...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Playdough96:
I think the volume output with headphones is way too low on max. That's the only real complaint I have because everything else is amazing with this phone.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mk-Raul:
Yeah it's a pitty... I have tried volume boostets too, but they do literally nothing... Is there any other way to boost it?

I'm thinking about getting an EX110 / 110AP but I'm worried that it would be useless because they are pretty cheap and I think that and z3's output will be pretty bad together... Oh well, we weren't as lucky as z2/1 users so it'll be better than the headphones that came with the phone.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RCJ89:
1. I don't have any speaker problems I done the service test aswell

2. I don't have any light leakage

3. Imo its around the same output as my GFs note 3 but its lower than my note 4 I've tried with my beats mixrs and the MDR-NC31EM, the boxed MH750s and Samsungs boxed headphones same song, same settings which is equalizer bars all set to 0 and bass on and nothing else e.g no studio or surround sound etc.

4. Yes mine works
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mk-Raul:
You mean top and bottom speakers sound exactly the same while covering one and leaving the other open?

How does yor stamina mode work? Do you see your wifi disabled when unlocking the phone or is it how it's meant to be? Because I can see it like it wasn't even disabled...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RCJ89:
Yes they sound the same to me

yes that is how stamina mode works, if your stamina mode is on, on the right hand side of the battery there will be a + sign.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
I have the same issue with the speakers, think they're just like that. Stamina mode seems to work ok on mine, in that it stays "asleep" until I wake the screen. No light leaking on mine and my screen is centred, although I wouldn't use light leaking as an indicator that water would get into the phone. Light shines through glass boxes but water doesn't go through glass. It's probably just thin paint etc.
[Sony Xperia M] exico91:
I recently updated the Freexperia rom on a phone but with the update the sim disappeared and so the possibility to use the phone network (calls and internet) while any other thing works as ever.

The sim work on other phones and stopped just after the update.

With a restore it come back to working.

What i do:

Normal update.

Update with factory, cache, dalvik and system partition reset.

Any clue or suggestion?

Model C1905 nicki

ROM i believe its FXP312 or 313 since the date says 20140325

Android 4.4.2
[Sony Xperia M] RedLedLight:
Clear all things in the recovery, flash stock !4.3! .ftf file, reboot, turn off again, connect to PC, flash boot.img , enter recovery, flash fxp341 and reboot ;)

EDIT: The error appears when you flash 4.4.4 over 4.1/2 baseband. Flashing 4.3 and then the ROM will do.

Press thanks if I helped! ;)

Unfortunately now i have another problem.

I didnt notice it immediately but this is what happen: the phone get the H+ signal, pass to 3g and then drop to no connection, this in a infinite loop of 3-4 secs.

I tried to reflash stock firmware and then flash another rom but it didnt work.

I tried to restore the old backup before the update but it didnt work.

I tried to flash a old stock rom and there didnt worked and so on...

Then i tried to flash the single radio i found here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2703161 and... didnt work either >_<

Maybe its better if i open another thread?

Ok problem solved, the sim stopped working in the same time of the update. Gonna change it :P

if the system you wanna dump is WM5.0, it's a easy work. Use grab_it or other util to dump the rom to raw BIN image file, then take IMGFS_TOOLS to extract files.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tuberomix:
Hi Everybody!

So after 4 years with my iPhone 4, I think it might be about time to get a new phone. The Z3 Compact looks and sounds like the a really great phone for me, I like almost everything such as the speed, water-resistance, design, Sony skin etc.

BUT, I'm really not sure about the size. I'm just not sure it it's too small for me or just right. Consider this: The vast majority of the time spent with my current iPhone 4 (3.5') I use it for browsing the web (reading stuff) one-handed (either because the other hand is doing something else or just because it's more comfortable). So being able to use it one-handed is important to me, but then, so is easy readability. One of my worries going with a huge new phone is that it won't be as comfortable in one-handed use. I'm not the only person who has a smartphone in this world, so I did get to use the Nexus 5 (4.95') and found that while it isn't as comfortable as my iPhone 4 it is perfectly usable with one hand. The Galaxy Note 1 (5.3') I used on the other hand, not so much. If I decide I go with a bigger phone it will be the Galaxy S5 (5.1'), the LG G2 or the big Z3 (both 5.2'). I probably will be able to use these regularly with one hand (especially since I don't think these device are as big, chunky and clunky as the original Note), but nevertheless it won't be as comfortable, wheres with the Z3 Compact (4.6') I'm sure it'll be perfectly comfortable to use one-handed.

So what I'm wondering is - is the sacrifice in comfort even worth it? I mean, the vast majority of the time I use my phone not for playing games or watching movies, but rather for reading stuff, whether it's browsing the web or messaging (although I'm also thinking about starting with reading ebooks). When I use my teeny iPhone 4 (3.5') I don't really think "wow this is so small I can't read anything" (especially since almost all websites nowadays have a mobile view), although when I use a bigger device I defiantly notice that reading is easier. But will the half an inch difference (and 1080P resolution, whether that makes a difference or not) between the 4.6' Z3 Compact and bigger devices with 5.1'/5.2' displays really make a significant difference in reading? That's what I'm wondering and hope you guys and gals can help me figure out. However keep in mind that I want to make this discussion purely about what size is better for me, not about the features and prices of all these different phones which I am well aware of.

TL;DR: I want to know if a bigger display will make reading significantly easier and better - enough to sacrifice a little in one-handed use comfort.

Buy a Kindle, your eyes and you will thank me later.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geronimoid:
Why you asking us then? :confused:
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tuberomix:
I'm asking you people because since I haven't used any new device extensively I'm really not sure how much half an inch difference and 1080P resolution (such is the difference between the 4.6' Z3 Compact and larger devices such as the 5.1' S5) can make reading easier, so I'm asking you people who have more experience and might know.

And I'm not going to buy a kindle because I need a smartphone for reading web stuff on-the-go.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingsfortheirsmiles:
Where are you based?

In the UK phone shops have the Z3C in store, often with working wifi so you could pop in and compare reading an article on your favourite online publications on that and other phones such as the Z3 or S5 to decide if the difference bothers you.

I *personally* believe 4.6" is a large enough, in fact the 4.3" screen that the Z1C had was one of the few things that bothered me about that phone. And this is from someone who owns the LG G2 and still loves it - the extra screen area is only noticeably better when watching youtube videos or playing games.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJCacher:
I've used the following phones as daily drivers, in this order, primarily for reading ebooks, forums, and general web browsing:

IPhone 4

Note 2

Note 3

Nexus 5

Z3 Compact

My opinion is the Z3c is so far the best of the lot due to a nearly ideal mix of size, power, and battery stamina.

I wouldn't willingly go back to any of the other devices except the Nexus 5, which I intend to keep as a backup phone.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpurick:
Obviously they scale fonts/images/icons for the smaller screen. Some things appear smaller, and other things are sized fine but you just can't get as many on the screen. You have to decide for yourself, but it is entirely a matter of comfort and not function.

As for me, I wanted a phone that I couldn't feel in my pocket with top-tier speed and a strong battery and a decent camera. As a plus, the daylight readability and weatherproofing make it a very nice go-anywhere phone. I sampled a lot of phones this year, and I'm very satisfied to settle with this one for a while.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tuberomix:
I am well aware that the Z3 Compact is awesome feature-wise. However, didn't you feel that going down in screen size in comparison to the larger phones is kind of downside, and a detract when reading web-content/forums/ebooks? When you say that the Z3c is "nearly ideal mix of size..." do you mean it feels slightly too small for your everyday use (which is going to be pretty similar to my everyday use)?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJCacher:
Not at all. I went up in size after the IPhone because I thought it was too small, and, after experiencing the advantages and disadvantages of the larger phones, found myself moving back down in size, first to the N5 and now, smaller still, to the Z3c.

At this point I found I've gone nearly full circle, with a device somewhat larger than my original iPhone, but significantly smaller than the other Androids, and I'm finding this size to be the best overall experience for my use cases.

Specifically, for me, that means I want to read on a comfortably pocketable device with a bright, clear screen and not run out of power before I get back to a charger.

I believe this device meets that mix of my requirements better than any of the previous ones I have owned.

I haven't been bothered in the slightest by the downsize in physical screen dimensions or resolution when reading books, forums or websites.

The only adjustment I've had to consciously make is to change my typing style from my previous "tap each letter individually" preference to the "slide continuously to each letter in the word" style due to an unacceptably higher error rate of the former style on the smaller keyboard - a change I probably should have made a long time ago anyway.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomtomtiddleifo:
Quick question, although I suspect I know the answer....

Screen shot says it all, backed up my messages under KITKAT and now on last Jelly Bean and cant recover my messages....

Is there any way I can do this.... I have a spare xperia s which could maybe be utilised to help recover and/or backup in a more universal way than I did before.

Its not that I have a massive attachment to my messages except there are some phone numbers I could do with in the backup.....

Device Model is C6903 on build number 14.1.G.1.534. The messages wold have been backed up on C6903_14.4.A.0.108 FW.

I don't understand the 'non-deodexed' term? Maybe this would help me understand why I cant restore the messages?

I wonder if i could install the C6903_14.4.A.0.108 (of firmware version to my Xperia s maybe I could restore the messages on that phone and then export in another way ...........

I have "restored a system app from a previous version' but the only problem is the lac of message restore, oh and by the way my dialer icon has dissapeared "app not installed' any ideas about this.........this is its distressing as I now have a phone that is NOT a 'phone' !!

Thanks again in advance for pointing me i a helpful direction
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] done12many2:
Is it me or is the IR Blaster on the Note 4 substantially better than previous Galaxy phones? Or my LG G3 for that matter.

Due to the location of my media cabinet in my living room, I used to have do some creative maneuvering to get the IR blasters on my previous phones to work. With the Note 4, I'm finding that simply pointing in the general direction is good enough to work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] boodies:
the ir blaster has like 3 times the range of my moms G2. its great.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] idelgado782:
Yes I agree it's so much better. I had an LG G3 and the ir blaster on the note 3 & 4 work flawlessly compared it. I was never able to control my devices with it.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Misterjunky:
re: ir remote range

I don't know if it has 3 times the range because my room is not large enough to test. LOL

However I can say there is a day and night difference in the range compared to my

Note 3, with the Note 3 I had to move my recliner 5-6 feet closer to the TV to get

the remote to working consistently but with the Note 4 I can control the TV even if

I am at the far wall of my front room which is about 8 feet further than my recliner

is located.

re: Watchon Plus

There are a few different versions of Samsung Watchon, the latest

one with the most features is "Watchon Plus", it's also at the

google play store.

Just do a search for Watchon Plus at the play store.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] YellowGTO:
I agree the IR blaster on the note4 is leaps and bounds better then the N3. I can sit on my bed with the note pointed straight up and in changes channels. on my N3 it had to be pointed directly at it. I don't know if the distance has been increased or just the spread of the beam has been increased
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] idelgado782:
I downloaded watchon & also tried out the pre-installed smart remote as well. I believe that the pre-installed smart remote app is better (at least for me) because it gave me options similar to Logitech smart remotes. For example I have my Samsung tv, tivo, & denon home theater set up. The power button turns on my TV & receiver makes sure the input on my TV is set to hdmi 1 & on the denon receiver the input is set to cable TV all with the press of watch TV. I also set up my apple tv and when I select that option the TV stays on its input but the receiver changes to Blu Ray which is where I have my apple tv hooked into. The volume is controlled by my receiver and changing channels controlled by tivo. I don't have to switch between remotes & everything works seemlessly with each other. I didn't quite have that experience with the watch on app.

Taking Notes on my Note 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jamesrick80:
You are right smart remote is the better application...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Misterjunky:
re: Watchon

The nice part about Watchon/Watchon Plus is that it's not simply a universal remote controller,

but it has a built-in tv guide which not only shows you what's on now or at any given time but

on the tv guide show listing screen you can simply switch to the channel and tv show you want.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jamesrick80:
I can even control my dvr with the smart remote application. ...this phone feels like a true upgrade...thanks samsung for the note 4...I was tired of using remote controls
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] idelgado782:
I agree with you 100% but the smart remote app also provides you with a guide. You can add favorite shows or channels and it provides you with options for reminders of your favorite shows as well. I tried uploading screenies but it seems the note 4s screen shots are too large to upload from my tapatalk app. [emoji12]

Taking Notes on my Note 4
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dkb218:
So have I and the blaster is a tad bit stronger on my Note 3. Scientists have agreed with me. Books have been written on the subject. The Supreme Court has ruled overwhelmingly with me. You have been proven wrong. Accept it. Herewith endth the conversation.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Misterjunky:

No question about it for me, Note 4 over Note 3.

I accidentally paused a show my wife was watching last night when I grabbed my Note 4 to check a text msg.

With my Note 3, I'd have had to open the doors of my entertainment center to control the cable box from where I sit.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jamesrick80:
Umm I won't even bother, just happy my note 4 ir blaster works perfectly and at long distances....you wasted a paragraph of delusion ;)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dkb218:
Oh come on! Can't you take a little humor with your morning coffee? Okay, the IR Blaster is better on the Note 4! The Supreme Courts case was overturned on a technicality. :p

I most definitely agree. I'm coming from an S4. With an S4, you have to be pointing at the TV or set top box to get results. With the Note 4, im able to turn off my TV and change channels on my cable box just by aiming at the wall opposite from the TV. Lol

This is the Air Flow or something Air Motion or something.

Anyway in simple its a TouchWiz feature so you wont be able to get it on this ROM.

If you want your S-Pen feature, Smart Stay, Air Flow or any other feature specific to Samsung

Its normally in TouchWiz, For this reason you cannot have it on PAC or any other None Samsung Based ROM.
