(Sorry for the huge pics; don't know why they're displaying like that...)

I have a Nexus 6 that's rooted via the Nexus Root Toolkit. This installed SuperSu. I wasn't able to get Android Pay working by using the popular hack of unchecking the Allow Superuser box in SuperSu, so I installed Magisk and phh SuperUser following the instructions here and here. Everything seemed to go correctly, but when I try to start AutoMagisk, I get an error about needing to remove the SuperSu Magisk Module (screenshot attached.) I did this and rebooted, but am still getting the error.

Help?

Bit late but AutoMagisk doesn't support Magisk v7 and is discontinued. Use SUHide/HideSU instead
[Magisk] EmmyS:
Thanks for the reply. Am I using SuHide instead of AutoMagisk, or instead of Magisk v7?
[Magisk] Quinny899:
v7 + SuperSU + SUhide

Sony does it again. The SCTF10 case looks nice, just can't find it for sale anywhere. Is it that difficult to release the phone and case simultaneously?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] pocketjose:
I have a question. Can I use the phone without opening the front cover? Sony says "main functions" can be used, but I don't know how much you can do with the front cover.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Malner27:
I got the cover this morning (Sony mobile uk have this in stock). You can do everything on the phone with the cover shut. I have to say this case feels and looks top class cant fault it so far. I have the white version.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] augie7107:
Can you provide a link? It doesn't show as available when I search Sony Mobile UK.

Trying to locate a blue one to match phone I ordered. Phone arrives Monday. Clove UK show price and availability to be determined. Mobile Fun UK have it for pre-order. eBay has white and black from France. Can't find blue available anywhere.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Same.

I need blue too.

Can anyone with this case..please send lots of pics of the phone withing this case.

I'm intrigued.

Thanks in advance.

The phone is lovely in hand.

But when I put the gel case on purchased from Amazon, which is a very good fit. The phone looks and feels ugly and massive.

I'd love the have the phone naked. But it's inevitable I will completely ruin the phones beauty... a quandary indeed.

Please send pics of the phone in the style case
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] will.m:
I know the feeling. After dealing with the soft glass on the Z3 and the compact variant, I've come to terms with the phone being pristine for maybe a day. Screen protectors will go a long way with day-to-day wear and a pouch lined with good microfiber will greatly reduce pocket wear. But if I had my way, I'd really love a leather case like Apple makes for their iphones. The one I have for my SE is pretty close to perfect.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] aruim:
Does anyone know if the SCTF10 Touch Cover is available anywhere yet? It's a bit odd that Sony didn't release them simultaneously - although I'm not surprised.

Any idea if either of the official cases will be compatible with the DK60 Dock?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Now the UK Sony site doesn't even list the forest blue style case. Disappeared for now ?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Malner27:

I have the white SCTF10 and getting the DK60 on 11/10/16 so any questions just ask
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] rmadrid7:
I am in the same boat as you in looking for the SCT-F10 case. I have checked UK sites and US sites and no one has it in stock yet. Amazon doesn't even list it. Mobile Fun is a well known US site and it is listed for pre-order for $51.99 (all colors), but no set release date. Ill update if I find a site with a release date.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] SDR-1970:
I went on Amazon and searched for SCSF10 instead of SCT-F10 and it comes up with the case in question.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] rmadrid7:
The SCS-F10 and SCT-F10 are two diff cases. The first one is a style cover and the second one is a touch cover. I can't seem to find either available though.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] SDR-1970:
Oh, I wasn't aware of that. I prefer the style cover myself, so am holding out for that one.

How do you guys find taking photos with a flip cover? Do they get in the way? (non touch cover) and how are they ergonomically for holding phone while playing games?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Hershchel Clogs:
It appears that this flip cover has an opening at the top for the speaker and camera

edit: Well, It also appears that I misread your post lol
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Thanks dude.

Ordered forest blue, hope to receive for Tuesday/Wednesday.

Hope the phone ergonomics remain true with the case. Probably not. But need a decent case regardless
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] djinn415:
I'm all about retaining the aesthetics as much as possible. I ordered this clear case on amazon. As long as it has minimal bulk and covers all sides I should be happy with it. Will leave my impressions once I receive my phone in a few days.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01M05DPAB/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
I had these since day 1.

Fyi for anyone interested they are identically the same item just different sellers.

It does the job, well I might ad. However to my eye it doesn't retain the slick aesthetics of the phone.

On the 2 links I supply below the buttons for volume and camera protrude enough for the phone to look a little sh!t for my eye.

Initially wasn't happy with the look nor feel with this case on. I've since become accustomed to the feel.

But overall I don't like the look of the device with this case on, it hides the pleasing design of the phone and in turn it makes the phone look cheap in the sense that the gell case is quite glossy. It's a pedantic point of view I agree, as any case is due to alter the look/feel of a device.

2cents for anyone interested.

A Matt finish and thinner version would be better for aesthetics but will then hide the pleasing forest blue tone and provide less protection.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Update for anyone intrigued.

Called clove to just quiz them over the stock. I pre ordered over the weekend thanks to your post.

They are receiving 20 forest blue this week. And have already over sold. Thankfully I'm 14th in Cloves pre order queue and they've ensured I will get mine in this weeks forthcoming batch.

From the sound of what he said they should be receiving batches of these cases from Sony every week.

As it is they are due to receive 20 of them this week in forest blue and have already pre sold over that amount.

Good luck
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] transcendent12:
Please let us know your impressions when you get it. They're mighty expensive for what they are so I need a guinea pig to give an honest opinion. I only found indirect reviews from the previous xperia X series style touch cover and they were a bit of a mixed bag. So I'd be interested what you make of it once you get it.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Will do.

Tbh I'm not sure if I will like it. I'm anxious. But can only assume that it will add sufficient bulk to the phone.

We'll see.

Another option has surfaced at Orzly.

I've used them for my previous Sony's from time to time, one of the best gel case options from that previous experience.

Just gave them a call now.

The "felxislim" in black - is a thinner transparent black case.

The "flexicase" in clear - a thicker case.

http://orzly.com/manufacturers/sony/xperia-xz

The illustrations they have of the transparent black using the forest blue phone doesnt actually look bad at all.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] transcendent12:
Looks quite promising and I'm also interested, however, we're still lacking a reliable screen protector for the XZ due to the slight curve on the edges of the glass. There is nothing convincing on the market atm. There's the G-color transparent edge to edge which got its first review (positive) yesterday. But the same brands attempts at the S7 edge were pretty bad going by the reviews. Roxfit/olixar are due quite a bit later and the roxfit is black/white (i have a feeling they hide a layer of adhesive on the edge instead of making it fully transparent) Might have to resort to a 90% coverage screen protector/naked/flip case.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
This one is 100% perfect screen coverage

Sony Xperia XZ Screen Protector (3D Glass), G-ColorÃ?????Ã????Ã???Ã??Ã?Â® Sony Xperia XZ 3D Full Cover... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LXCPQU2/ref

Full cover over the curved glass and all.

I've had it since day one.

It was purchased without expectation.

Pro: absolute perfect coverage. Honestly.

Perfect cutouts

Negative: front face camera cutout possibly too perfect, in that front face camera shots result in a slight white hue due to the screen protector protruding from the screen as such. Slight loss of screen responsiveness, only on the corners(But nothing too annoying tbh)

As good as this protector looks on the device I don't think I would recommend it
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] transcendent12:
thanks for the post, I think I may give a flip cover a go. If i hate that, I'll use a back case and just let the glass go nude and just try my best to not scratch it
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Clove posted the case yesterday.

So potentially receive today or tomorrow.

I will very quickly decide if I want to keep it or not.

In the case I don't want it. I'm willing to sell it to anyone UK based Â£40 all in (PM me if interested.)

Edit: received, it's very nice indeed. Feels very nice in hand. However I don't think the flip scenario works for my usage.

PM if anyone wants to buy. :good:

[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] augie7107:
Got my SCTF10 and like it very much. Good quality. Decent protection. Nice looking.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Orzly smoke black is the winner for me.

The phone retains the premium feel without adding bulk.

And the gelcase feels very nice in hand too. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Style cover provids better thicker protection.

But I didn't like the cover. It's opaque and not to my taste.

And when mounted in the car, the cover will not remain closed it has a life of its own. Hence it doesn't work for my particular needs/usage. Most importantly I'm left handed user with phones, the cover becomes very annoying/obstructive in that regard, when trying to use the phone with the cover open.

Now very happy with the orzly smoke black with my forest blue phone. Naked screen.

(If I get the opportunity later I will send pics of all 3 cases I currently have, before I return them tomorrow.)
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] ckchan08:
Agreed. i used Ultimate Shield temper glass full coverage screen protector b4 and i must say it too has the exact same pros and cons you mentioned here. I don't really like it as i play game and annoy me a lot when clicking the edge and corner of the screen.

i guess most curved temper glass screen protector will suffer the same fate.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Exactly.

I'm now using the screen naked.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] mrjunz:
Hi dillalade, could you provide a pic of the orzly case on your XZ? Also, does it protect the screen when the XZ is layed down upside down or is it flush with the screen?

Thanks in advance :).
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Tried to be as comprehensive as I could

(Photos taken with Sony XP)

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B6e46LKf3A75OVhLOFNPVlVyenM

Pretty much flush tbh, 1mm protruding from top and bottom front edges - slight but not ample protection for that usage you detail.

Does tap to wake work with the style cover?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] dillalade:
Can't test right now.

But don't see why not, the touchscreen is completely responsive through the opaque flap/cover
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] augie7107:
Yes
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Lcrkz0023:
Hmm. My doesn't seem to work. Tap to sleep does, but tap to wake doesn't. Yes, it is on in settings. I can open cover and it works.

Not sure if I'm a keep it or If I do it wouldn't be my permanent use, I'm leaning towards naked phone as I normally use.

It's just strange it doesn't work

Edit: reviewed settings, toggled on/off tap to wake still nothing. Turn on/off cover, still no dice. Head scratcher for me, indeed
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] augie7107:
I apologize, you are correct. Tap to sleep works but not tap to wake. I flip the cover slightly to wake so I'm guessing it has to do with the proximity sensor
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Lcrkz0023:
Thxs augie... It's just strange one would work and not the other. The proximity sense is exposed thru the cut out... So I'm not sure. Actually it's a pretty sweet case without the front cover, I like the snug fit.

Well I appreciate you checking again, I was about to go crazy... Now Imma keep playing around with it to figure out why it doesn't work.

Tap to wake takes repeated attempts even with no case and no screen protector so don't be too keen to blame your case.

Yes that's the only one that retains the phones epic look and feel.

The best so far
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] coleburns:
not a big fan of the case. I found it a bit slippery and it really doesnt offer much protection. However it does the job until something better comes along. Sony phones dont seem to get a lot of love when it comes to cases.

I've just emailed Spigen asking them when they releasing cases for the XZ.

I had their case on my Z5 with the Air Cushion Technology, it really does protect your phone and was very well bulit.

Keep you guys posted of their response.
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Pandemic:
+10

I use that also for my Z5, and yes i have a new Z5 bro ^^
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] coleburns:
While it offers good protection, it's aesthetically not the most pleasing and doesn't take into account the slight curve of the screen. However, what i find really annoying is the cutout for the fingerprint. It's completely useless for the thumb and i couldn't even register it as it threw errors because it could only register a partial print.

P.S i have average sized hands
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] chawlasrijan:
Thank you for your recommendation [MENTION=599722]niaboc79[/MENTION] Orzly is amazing :)
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] TheKorbenDallas:
What I don't like about Style Cover Touch so far is two things:

1. There's nothing to keep the flap closed. There's no magnetic or static attachment of the flap to the screen. There's no mechanical latch. The flap is basically allowed to flap around freely. Some sort of magnetic attraction would have been nice.

2. There's no option to ask the phone to go to sleep when the flap is manually closed. I know that the idea of Style Cover Touch is that you can use the phone through the flap, but still it would be nice to have that as an option. The flap can wake the phone up, but it cannot put it back to sleep. This is quite illogical.

---

What I don't like about soft-shell TPU cases (including Orzly) is that they always peel away at the edges as one puts the phone into their pocket (or pulls it out), thus collecting lint and other stuff between the case and the phone.

Does anyone have any positive experience with any hard cases for this phone? Like those aluminum ones?

That's very similar to the roxfit slim one
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] LadFromWales85:
Looks the same as almost every clear TPU case so far. I bought a no name one then the Orzly as thought it would be better. Was exactly the same.

That one appears to have no dots on back, nubs on all four back corners to raise the phone, and a curved camera cutout.

Is it tight enough on the phone that lint doesn't get stuck inside the case the second it's out in a pocket?
[Sony Xperia XZ Accessories] Darni187:
I had the generic TPU clear case with the dots so was not 100% see-through clear.

No this TPU is harder and is tight around the phone, feels more sturdier and expensive. Yes it's tight so not dust gets stuck on the edges.

Yes it does stick out a bit in small pockets.
