[Xperia Z5 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
Tks Guys!

The Z5 is coming with those gaps that came in the first devices Xperia Z2?
[Xperia Z5 General] Jooosty:
My phone feels and works perfectly. No problems here.

I've also had the Z3 for a little bit to compare to.
[Xperia Z5 General] LitoNi:
if i were you stay away from the UK batches, get it from Taiwan. It seems like most UK phones are REV 1-3, whereas Taiwan is REV 4. Dont have any concrete evidence yet but i suspect most defected phones are in the UK and not Taiwan.
[Xperia Z5 General] Ben36:
Mine's fine and rev 2 I believe
[Xperia Z5 General] gamer649:
Nope, no gaps here. I think that hasn't been a problem since the Z2.

Mine is a UK rev 2, there's no problems here. You can't draw a generalisation from a few reported cases.

With every shipped batch, regardless of Rev number, there will be faulty phones.
[Xperia Z5 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
And how will I know whether UK or Taiwan? The device box indicate?
[Xperia Z5 General] KobrakaiMM:
I got a golden Z5 (non compact) REV3. My right- and bottom sides of the screen are unresponsive. It's only a couple of millimeters but it makes it hard to press "p" and space on the keyboard.

Also reading that some people have back light bleeding.

My problem doesn't seem to effect many people though.
[Xperia Z5 General] wschom:
I have a rev1 from the UK with no issues. Screen is fine. Sound is fine. Camera is perfect. The only issues are software related which I hope Sony fixes in the near future.

From what I have read the rev3 series seems to be the ones with the majority of the issues. I wonder what the difference was in the manufacturing process?
[Xperia Z5 General] SDR-1970:
Hi guys. How do you go about finding if your Z5 is a rev1 etc? I am thinking of buying my Z5 from Clove either this week, so it would be good to know.
[Xperia Z5 General] Jooosty:
Where to find rev?
[Xperia Z5 General] gamer649:
Rev number can be found on the box by the barcodes
[Xperia Z5 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
Comes clearly written, Rev1, 2 or 3?

Friend, could post photo?

Great! Tks, man!
[Xperia Z5 General] chunlianghere:
mine is Rev 1, Singapore.

Got backlight bleeding issue/pressure spot in center of screen. 1-to-1 exchange, at least now the phone(3rd) screen issue not so obvious. 2nd phone got frame pop out abit at the top right corner.
[Xperia Z5 General] SDR-1970:
Mine is rev2. So far very happy with my Z5. Screen is very very nice, & this is someone who came from a htc one m7, which is renowned for having a quality display, but the screen on the Z5 in my opinion is even that much nicer.
[Xperia Z5 General] Jooosty:
Rev 2 checking in. Beautiful quality. Built in England I assume. Says EN on the box.

XPERIA Z5 GREEN
[Xperia Z5 General] coleburns:
Rev 4 in UK. No issues. I personally don't believe it makes a difference. The phone is brilliant
[Xperia Z5 General] dawen:
bell canada e6653 rev. 4 black no problems, havent try in water
[Xperia Z5 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
What about the blur problem in camera?
[Xperia Z5 General] kitch9:
The revision number probably will not mean there is any physical change with the handsets, it's probably a manufacturing assembly process revision which could be as simple as the machines which place the components on the motherboard having a placement slightly tweaked by a fraction of a mm.

I did 4 years running the machines at Pioneer.
[Xperia Z5 General] RohMish:
I have bought multiple Sony devices and over ears have came to result that for some reason Sony has very high amount of defective pieces when product is new. (Not only phones, but almost everything) I would recommend that you wait for a few weeks-1-2 months.
[Xperia Z5 General] doministry:
I am lucky. None of my SonyEricsson/Sony devices were defective.

Current Z5 is just perfect so far.
[Xperia Z5 General] HeroinesHero:
Okay so my black Rev 4 z5 had heating, battery life and camera issues +the finger print sensor didn't always work. Today I went to the store with very low exceptations but it turned out great.

Now I have gold z5 Rev 4 without any heating problems, battery seems more like a Xperia battery should and the camera is much better. It feels less laggy too. +it looks pimp lol

The old one never overheated, but it was pretty warm what ever I did with it, after 20min 4k it was almost uncomfortable to hold. Photos were really blurry and had some weird blue tint in the corners/sides. And it ate battery muuuch faster than the gold one or my old z2 did.
[Xperia Z5 General] BR4DOKYBrazil:
Can U post photos to see if have blur ?
[Xperia Z5 General] doum89:
How can I found out if I am using a detective product from first batches? I'm gonna buy it in a few days and I don't want any kind of problem (neither I want to discover that my phone is defective by the problems it shows). Thank you and sorry for my english

Inviato dal mio GT-I9505 utilizzando Tapatalk
[Xperia Z5 General] HeroinesHero:
Ask them to open it in the store If possible, check it physically(for frame popping etc). Then just use it for a couple of days and pay attention for uncomfortable heat/heating when checking Facebook etc and take tons of photos (slight blurr is ok due to the shape of the lens). I'd also recommend to pick some other colour than black, but that's just a hunch (I had a bad black one).

If you get a defective unit just go back to the store and tell them to swap it for a new one asap. Here in Finland Sony has 1week policy of swapping defective units straight for new ones, dunno about your country.

Hi,

First i would like to give thanks to all the information on this site, so i decided to create an account here to try and share too.

It just happened that I've bought a cool smartphone and tried to Root it, Luckily it went not successful haha my bad.

I've tried using almost all the One Click Rooting Apps (apk) available on here. So I Guess after what I've done with my powers I should ask for a SOS.

infos:

Released on September 2015

Android OS, v5.1, 16GB storage,

5.0", 720x1280 pixels

13MP, 1080p

2GB RAM ; MT6753

3000mAh Battery.

Is it because of the Lollipop v5.1 why I can't root it?? and if i use a computer base rooting will i hurt my Phone?

Thanks for those who will help.
[XDA Assist] grayArt10:
Already done that sir

Hey thanks for the response, yeah but as I have said,

"I've tried using almost all the One Click Rooting Apps (apk) available on here. So I Guess after what I've done with my powers I should ask for a SOS."

I've used Kingroots latest Version so far, Until Kingroot updates its database I guess we have to wait.

Anyway I will keep on trying to gain something too and to Help Others that meets same problem as mine.

Hi sir, Thanks for the link, I've found a Rooting process there but i can't post a Link in here (yet). I'm just afraid to try it because of complicated process, it might cause a Bootloop if done anything wrong.

[T-Mobile LG G4] Sean Patterson:
A little backstory, I've been through two G4s because of lag, but more so it's stutter during in-app scrolling. It was driving me insane! I had this issue ever since I got the G4 from my T-Mobile store. But it dawned on me one day that when I got my new G4 and it's replacement, after logging into Google and selected my latest app backup from Google, it might have been the huge app dump that was causing the issue.

So I reset the phone and set it up as a new device and reloaded my apps one by one a few each day. This was a night and day difference! No longer was I experiencing the stutter as before.

I hope this helps others plagued by this issue.
[T-Mobile LG G4] jobella:
Thanks, I'm resetting a phone now and I'll try this.

Xperia M2 just got an update to 5.1.1 lollipop, and it has a much slower chipset compare to SP. I think that Xperia SP is a great smartphone and it deserves lollipop update.

our phone is from 2013 line phones not 2015 like m2 !! and second thing is our chipset is too old and they will not spend time and money to develop something like 5.1 to our phone who is originally thrown out by the company on 4.4 and they didn't give us the update to 4.4 beside company have other projects to do .....i'm not here to disappoint u but the thing that u are talking about is just impossible :)

[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derzai:
Maybe there is no this func, but I saw on the demo in youtube that there should be a possibility to customize hardware buttons behavior. Also should be possible to enable swipe on Home button.

If you type in search box in General Settings keyword "camera" it will show you that there should be some settings in Buttons, to set behavior. But if you press on context link - it shows button menu but very limited.

Do you have one?

Thanks
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dante Smith:
If I'm not wrong swipe on Home is available on ZUI home, not Cyanogen OS.

On Buttons menu you can set home long press action, home doube tap action (doesn't work on latest update).

I personally use "All In One Gestures" app to configure buttons
[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derzai:
Thanks a lot. I will try!

The reason is I would like to set a camera on double tap action and cannot find how to do it by default.

[Zuk Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IceDBear:
In Settings -> About Phone turn on Advanced mode. Then you can configure buttons. I have it set up just as you'd like it, double tap for camera, works perfectly for me with latest update.

Wow, you have made my day!

Hi there, I'm having problem connecting to the internet using WIFI on my Tornado smartphone (SP5m)... it always connects but takes a while to locate the url, it says "Locating..." in Internet Explorer for a long time and then finally open up the url. To me, it looks like a DNS issue?!

And that's using my own WIFI router at home with a DSL line (5 Mbits), no firewall on it, etc.

But whenever I'm connected to any other WIFI access point (e.g. coffee shops, etc), web pages and other internet stuff would load and open as quick as any WIFI laptop, any thoughts??

Thank you all for your time,

highmighty

I'm having similar problem on my home wifi with 128bit WEP shared key - but i never get over loading...

But I discovered that if I run Skype on the phone, it can connect and since then internet works OK (even mail through POP etc...). I have no idea how to fix it :/, it works excelently with a free wifi networks...
[HTC Tornado] highmighty:
Yep, could it be because my personal wifi connection uses wpa encryption as oppose to no encryption at all (like in coffee shops or elsewhere)?
[HTC Tornado] vlodeck:
Try assigning IP manually.
[HTC Tornado] highmighty:
Where would I change that? I'm running WM6 on a SP5m and I don't see where I would modify the way IP address are assigned, either auto or manual?

Thank you for your time
[HTC Tornado] karhoe:
To threadstarter, check your router settings, are you using WEP or WPA which you did not configure on your phone.

Then check to see if you have any MAC filtering included, also ensure DHCP is enabled on your router.

Last resort, if you are using Andot's Perfect English Edition v6, there should be a WLAN IP manager in it under Accesories
[HTC Tornado] highmighty:
You know what? I installed Opera Mini and without changing any wifi settings (router & phone), it now works ultra fast, it locates the proper URL as quick as anywhere else... Internet Explorer for mobile seems to be the problem here?!
[HTC Tornado] vlodeck:
Here you go: http://www.modaco.com/WLAN-IP-Manager-t251147.html

You can change IP, gates, DNS and so on.
[HTC Tornado] highmighty:
IE for mobile is slow...

How come IE for mobile is taking forever to "locate" the URL while Opera Mini locates it super fast? Does IE for mobile uses a proxy to render those pages? If so, can I disable that? What other tests could I ran to isolate the issue?

I'd like to find a permanent fix because I'd like to use IE for mobile, which works fine with youtube videos... thanks to you all!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spillytime:
I pre-ordered the Nexus6P, on the day it was available for pre-order, and last week, the credit card I had, it had fraudulent activity, and when Google tried to charge my card prior to shipping it, it didn't go through, so I called to get the payment switched to another card, but they said they couldn't do that. And told me that I would have to cancel and reorder, but I told them I didn't want to lose my spot in the queue, and also lose my 50 dollar google play credit for preordering, because the item is out of stock now and I wont' be able to order it and get the 50 dollar credit.

The stupid thing is, my phone case, I was able to change that payment method online and that has shipped, so I'm stuck with a phone case and no phone.

On friday, When i called, they said they would call me back after they discussed what their options were with their specialists, and I never received a call back. I have emailed support twice, and haven't received a reply to either email.

Google's customer service is terrible, and was hoping somebody could offer me advice on what I could do to get this situation taken care of.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aygriffith:
Did you get the original card reissued with a new card number or was the original card momentarily suspended for possible fraudulent activity? If the card number was cancelled its entirely reasonable of Google to cancel the order as the original payment type is no longer valid. If the card was just momentarily suspended and the card number is still the same and now active why don't you just ask the to reattempt the authorization.

You may not like what happening, but if I cancel my card/account for fraud I absolutely expect all the merchants using that account to halt service/shipments of anything tied to that card. To do otherwise would be irresponsible of the merchant.

When in doubt, keep calling till you get someone who does what you want. If you're adamant about them charging a new payment type on the same order just keep calling and asking. Maybe you'll eventually get someone who won't follow the instructions...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spillytime:
A new card number was issued, however, google emailed me and said the order is on hold and to update the payment method to a new card, with a link, and when I go to the link it wouldn't allow me to update the payment method, it allowed me to do it with my phone case, but not the phone. I will keep calling until somebody will resolve my situation.,

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apgrovas:
Were you able to solve the credit card problem with Google?

Were you able to solve the credit card issue with Google?

I am stuck in the same situation as you, as a couple of weeks ago the credit card that I used to place my Nexus 6P preorder was compromised and my credit card company had to cancel it and issue me a new one. I haven't gotten the e-mail from Google stating that they could not process my card, but trying to be proactive and solve the problem before it happens, I contacted Google several time (twice by chat, once on the phone) to try to provide them the new credit card to be used but I simply have been told that there is no way of changing it until I get the e-mail from Google stating that they can't charge my now-defunct card as the system is completely automated and doesn't allow for any human intervention at Google's side. I asked them what could I do if I get stuck in the same situation you are describing, where after getting the e-mail from Google stating that my card could not be charge no way would be provided to change the card to be used to pay for the phone and I have gotten different answers ranging from "well talk to us and we'll figure it out" to "you will need to cancel your order and place a new one". this last one specially sucks since it would place me at the end of the line and my current cell phone (An HTC One M7) is on its dying legs (it loses cellular connection and Wi-Fi connection about 3/4 of the day).

That is why I am bugging you asking you if you got this issue fixed with Google, and if so, what did you do to fix it, as I am nearing the time where I'll need to fix it (My order was supposed to be shipped by Oct. 30 but still hasn't been shipped or charged).

Thanks !
