[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] AirBruce:
I've also found that 3rd party earbuds create a problem with it. I use v-moda earbuds (which have worked fine on iPads/iPhones/Galaxy phones (S2/Note2)) is giving me problems on this tablet compact. But what's even more interesting, is that it only happens when the tablet is experiencing vibration. E.g. Riding the bus. I was on the bus, and it keeps defaulting to a screen called, "Smart Connect." It always keeps jumping to the headset portion within that app with every vibration of the bus. It is very frustrating! Anyone know why or how to turn that off from happening? Give it a try, plug it in with 3rd party headphones, and start rattling the tablet compact as if your on a bus. Please let me know. Many thanks.

Does anyone have issues with ghost touches, like a Z1 phone lineup has?
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] androidkid311:
Not at all! Your touchscreen might be faulty....
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] zOOOOmer:
I don't own a tablet yet, that's why I'm asking, that's important for me.

As Z1 owner I don't want to have another device with such issues. And talking about Z1 - that's model-related problem affecting every device including Z1 and Z1C (dunno about Z2 and Z3), not a couple of faulty phones.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] veletron:
Before submerging your Z3 check it is air tight (and thus water tight) see here for how to test using the built in pressure sensor. Close ports properly, Press the screen gently in a couple of locations pressure should rise by 6-7 millibars. Do the same test with a port cover open, pressure will not change when you press screen. I have a Z3 phone service options are near identical. NB: no idea how to do this on non LTE version... Perhaps sideload the phone apk? http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z2/general/guide-test-waterproofing-water-t2908333

Been having a weird issue.. Wifi is turned off when screen is off. I made sure I clicked Wifi is always on in wifi setting. I made sure i unclicked turning wifi off in stamina mode. Seems like a weird bug.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] nonukez:
Just got mine yesterday, and I'm having a very disturbing problem. This is my first Sony phone/tablet so I don't know if there's a simple fix for this or not, but anyway...

The tablet keeps restarting randomly, and sometimes shut down randomly. I do mean random, as it'll sometimes restart multiple times in the span of 5 minutes or sometimes it'll stay on for hours without problem. Sometimes it'll restart while I'm using it, sometimes it'll restart while it's on a table, being idle. Thank god I used another phone as a backup alarm this morning, as when I woke up my tablet was off and therefore the alarm didn't go off...

My phone just restarted as I was typing out this post, again while it's sitting on the table with the screen off. No idea what's triggering it; any help would be appreciated.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jaime4272:
I feel sorry for you. I had mine for two weeks without any issues. call sony that's not normal
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] a user:
no unnormal issue here.

the only thing that i think is normal due to the lcd used is the not so good contrast stability. i mean white is only white if you look directly orthogonal on the screen. moving the tab by a minimal angle and you lose quite a lot contrast. you won't observe this much on colored images but it is extremly visible on white. regarding this aspect it is the worst display i ever had but it is an issue i can live with.

it is something i also observed with sony tv, constrast loses very fast with viewangles.

beside of this no issue, neither with 3rd party headsets nor dead pixel or something like this. also no hue issues or bleeding or anything mentioned here.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] nonukez:
Huh, learning some things here. With my bluetooth headset connected, it seems to consistently restart after ~30 seconds. With the bluetooth off AND the screen off, it'll restart after a few minutes. When the screen is on and the bluetooth is off, it does not restart. These results are replicable. Wtf is going on... Calling Sony in the morning.

No other problems with the device.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rmadrid7:
That's an issue

You might have gotten a defective tablet. If I was you I would return it and just order a new one, maybe that one is problem free. I haven't really had anything wrong with my Z3 TC yet but if I have something major i'll just swap it out for a new one.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] nonukez:
Yeah I think I'll just do that. Sorry to populate this thread with one specific, isolated problem which (luckily) isn't happening to other users.

Never returned anything to Expansys before, or anything I bought online for that matter. This should be an experience for sure (especially since I'm in Canada).
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rmadrid7:
it's fine

No, it's fine I started the whole thread lol. Sometimes isolated problems happen. Kind of unrelated but I bought the Sony Walkman Z MP3 player that ran Android 2 years ago and for some reason it started heating up to 107 degrees when I charged it so I sent it to get repaired and later on it restarted on its own so since the warranty period was over then I had to deal with it unless I wanted to pay up. I should've just gotena new one. The MP3 is dead now it won't charge and it won't even turn on. So if you return your tablet you might get lucky when you buy it again and get a problem free one.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Muffo:
Had to get mine replaced, had a yellow vertical line on the right side of the display. Have'nt found any other problems with it! :)
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rmadrid7:
So I have used the tablet for about 2 weeks now. I had no problems with it until now. When I'm playing Injustice for Android the tablet gets really hot and the game has crashed 3 times. I thought the Z3TC was made for gaming and it was supposed to handle intensive games well? Is this normal? Another thing is that the battery drains very quickly. I barely use it ot is mostly on standby and i have to charge it very frequently. Ill have it at 70% when i go to sleep and when i wake up it's at 40%. That seems like a lot of drain to me when it's on standby and this is with stamina mode on! Is anyone else experiencing this

I have had my Z3CT 32gb for four days now and have not had any of the issues described here. I love this tablet, the best I have ever owned. I still can't get over how thin and light it is ...and easy to hold. I use the Sony Digital Noise Cancelling Headset

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] princecharming88:
I'm not able to get the fast charging on mine. I've read that within 30 minutes the tablet should be able to charge up to 60% is this true? If yes mine definitely doesn't. Other than that no problems, although battery does drain fast, especially when playing heavier games.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Torguy:
NOT good, you better get that tablet either changed or fixed, because mine has been lasting one whole week so far with very lite use, and right now still its only on 15%, its incredible.

I last fully charged mine last Monday November 24, and today is Monday Dec 1.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] rmadrid7:
I wish I could return it and get a new one I really love this tablet., but the return period for an online order for Sony US is 14 days for mobile devices so ill probably send it to get it fixed. Also using the camera feels a little sluggish. It's probably the only thing that lags.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Torguy:
Its all good, as long as they fix it you should be good to go. They will most probably just replace the battery.

Good luck and keep us updated.

Display multicolor stripes

Hi guys/gal,

I've just bought this new great tablet, it's fast, smooth and thin. I like it! But. There's a but. I've noticed on my z3 tablet that at an angle of about 45°, multicolor(rainbow) stripes on the screen, and in the dark these stripes are really annoing. Has Anyone noticed this issue? Thanks to all that will reply.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] marcgear:
Yeah exactly same on mine yank yer issue been raised a few times along with the yellow tint. Least your not alone ey.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] reverser_:
So it's not an issue that can be fixed? I've been reading of other people complaining about this and perhaps it's just the sceen that is ****ty and there's nothing to do about that. If it's so, i'm quite disappointed.. I am often in the dark reading and writing and it's really really annoying:mad:
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Jiyeon90:
Just checked and yeah there's some rainbow effect in the top and bottom of the screen, in my case it's barely visible, and in order to see it I have to view it from a really bad angle so for me it will never be an issue.

What has really impressed me though is the battery life, I'm at 1:20h of SOT with 95% battery left, I can hardly believe it

Rainbow Screen Mistery Solved

A guy on the Xperia Care Support Forum has written about the rainbow stripes display

www . talk. sonymobile . com /t5/Xperia-Z3-Tablet-Compact/ Screen-quot-rainbow-quot-effect/m-p/911306#U911306

He thinks that that is a problem about the polarization of the screen.

So Probably who has this issue could return the tablet to the seller or at lest can be fixed/chanced by Sony.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] shaanyt:
Same here, the screen area near the sony logo is actually brighter, and the one at the bottom is darker (not actually yellow, just darker), this is because TRILUMINOS display is actually edge-lit tech, like all other phones and tablets (A row of LED light on top, shining downwards, hence lightbleed near the top) BUT, in this case, i think there are some minor issues during manufacturing in which some "light guide" (which helps reflect the back light uniformly) is sorta kinda not as uniform. So, as the screen got further from the top (the LED backlights), it got darker, and makes it seem "yellow". This would not be noticeable (in my opinion) on Z3 phone and Z3 compact because of the smaller screen size since the bottom edge is a lot closer to the edge-lit backlight.

I don't think i'd claim warranty though, cuz i don't think Sony would replace it, i mean.... for all we know,

A. every unit is the same

B. Sony could say they can't see the tiny uneven-ness (yes, i do realize, i'm a bit picky cuz i notice a lot of things, i noticed my Galaxy S2's screen's light bleed too, and it was a f-ing AMOLED display, which had like very very dark blacks, i sat in a dark room just to find it, talk about picky OCD shiet)

C. they'd probably not replace it and want to rip my tablet apart to replace a screen -----> no thanks.

*****NO RAINBOW EFFECT HERE THOUGH

But overall, i'm happy. it's a good tablet, GODLIKE battery life, and very nice display, though slightly uneven in brightness.

Quick charge

[MENTION=6146731]princecharming88[/MENTION]
[MENTION=4373981]teruhiko666[/MENTION]

To charge 60% battery in 30 minutes you need a charger that supports quick charge 2.0 technology. You can find list of certified chargers on Qualcomm website. Charger from Sony that supports this feature is EP881 (not listed on Qualcomm list)
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] harryw66:
Hi,

Can you confirm where you discovered the QuickCharge 2.0 facility of EP881 - according to the specs it is only 1.5A but I read that QC2.0 needs 2A minimum?

I have the EP880 (the UK 3 pin version) which is also 1.5A and it does not seem to QuickCharge my Z3.

So I want to be sure mine is not faulty etc.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] h-y-d-e:
EP881 is not mentioned by Qualcomm as QC 2.0 compatible, but description from Sony suggests that it uses quick charge technology ("Charge for ten minutes. Talk for 60." etc.). Also i've seen some charts in Z3TC reviews, but I don't rememeber where exactly.

Look at QC 2.0 certified chargers like Motorola Turbo Charger or HTC Rapid Charger. Those chargers are less than 2A, so it is not true that QC 2.0 needs more than 2A.
[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] harryw66:
Thanks for the clarification - I was planning to buy a QC2 charger - dont think I will bother now. As I already have 3 EP880 chargers.

However,note that the Motoroal Turbo and HTC Rapid 2.0 both have a max output of 15 watts (5V/1.67A, 9V/1.67A, 12V/1.25A)

Whereas the EP881/EP880 is more like 7.5w - 5V/1.5A

Edit: just found some specs for the EP881 on Sony site and it says 12V/1.5A which would give max output 18W - but I have just checked all 3 of my EP880 chargers and they state 5V/1.5A - weird because I read on the Sony forum that they EP881 and EP880 are identical except for the 2pin/3pin output?!?

Stabbing in the dark, but I've not found any posts regarding working dongles (OK I may not have searched well enough), and have seen this note on some dongles I'm looking at myself:

Supported Devices:

Miracast function can't be compatible with products that without HDCP TX/RX certificate

Each A2W Phone Cast Dongle has intergrated HDCP TX and HDCP RX key, which ensure A2W to be compatible with miracast function of every brand mobile phone and pad.

... and I can't see Oneplus or Oppo listed at:

As I've said, I'm stabbing in the dark as I really don't know much about this subject. Just trying to be sure one will work before I buy it. Would be very surprised if the OPO had no MHL and couldn't use wifi dongles...

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

Ignore that last post, there's plenty of people on the OnePlus forums with working dongles - but some say root the phone and use Mirror Enabler App, others use Localcast, and others say after updating to 38R it's fixed. So maybe your firmware could be pre - 38R? As long as your wifi isn't turning itself off for power saving. Sorry if that's too obvious, I'm not an expert so have no other ideas....

I've had the moto 360 since launch. It is connected to my Rooted HTC m8. I've never had any problems at all with notifications coming but something wear must have happened yesterday. It got stuck on a text message reply using 8sms and now no notifications are going through. I've reset the watch, tried disconnecting, connecting. It connects perfectly, all my apps are there, wear mini launcher, wear messenger, all are there. But if I try getting notifications it doesn't work and and when I test pandora or spotify, it knew a music player app was running, but only the play button would show up and none of the buttons pressed performed any action.

fyi i've never altered the moto 360 in any way.

My next steps:

Delete the android wear app.

Completely unpair and forget the bluetooth connection

Reset moto 360

redownload android wear

test

rinse and repeat

Now, it's possible that the company which made that program has a phone app version in the store. Have you checked? Alternatively, have you contacted them to ask about using the service on your phone?
