Read back carefully.

If Vivo will decide it, only then we will be able to enjoy updates.
[Vivo V9  Guides, News, & Discussion] pawan.diyal007:
we are already getting updates time to time.

check just now got v 1.9.11
[Vivo V9  Guides, News, & Discussion] Wuttodo:
They are not Google updates. They are Vivo FunTouch OS updates.

And if you will notice their changelog, it is all about improvements and bug fixes.

on 1.9.09, I could not even save a number from call log, the app will crash. Even after 1.9.11 update.

I however figured out, "Unknown number identification" app was causing the issue. (It is pre-built). I disabled it, and it fixed it. But, I never had this kind of problems with Flagships of Samsung, Sony, HTC, Nokia, even OnePlus that I have ever used.

Trying Vivo flagship this year, however was mistake.

[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] dozzo94www:
Hi, tonight my XC stopped working after restoring the original build.prop file. It stays on the sony screen and does not even restart. In flashtool mode when I try to flash the .ftf file I get this error:

- ERROR - The bundle does not match the connected device

The PC detects it as a SOMC Flash Device.

In fastboot mode, the phone is detected.

I tried to flash via fastboot boot.img and twrp.img but it does not change anything.

I reinstalled the adb drivers a little while ago but nothing.

could I flash the .ftf file via fastboot? or other tips? I can also access the twrp.

Version before the block: 34.3.A.2.32 with root and twrp

:crying:
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] levone1:
did you try Emma yer?

make sure ft is latest version...

if you can get into twrp, do you have a backup? Or, maybe copy a custom rom to sd card and flash in recovery, then try ft again. ..
[Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers] harryharryharry:
I don't think a modified build.prop file would cause flashmode to malfunction.

If you f up the android-install a little bit (which a corrupt/wrong build.prop would be), you should be able to recover by either (1) pushing a custom rom with adb when twp is booted:

adb push <path to zip file> /sdcard/

and installing the zip from twrp.

Or (2) directly sideloading it (which should first be enabled under 'advanced' after twrp is booted):

adb sideload <path to zip file>

When you f up a little more (like messing with the recovery partition) you should be able to flash the recovery partition with fastboot or a rom with fastboot (But you can't just fastboot any rom zip-file, you need a custom rom that supports flashing via fastboot, like this aosp rom; flash instuctions are in 2nd comment)

When you f up royally (for example zeroing out the internal flash) you *should* still be able to use flashmode/flashtool (but don't pin me down on this & don't try this at home).

Also, when you want to flash a stock rom I think the only option is using the flashmode/flashtool.

I think the error you are getting with flashtool could mean a couple of things:

- corrupt (or wrong) ftf file

- incorrectly installed driver

- problem with usb-port or usb-cable

If adb is still working (your post didn't make this clear) it is wise to use it to backup any files/directories on your phone that are important to you before attempting any of these methods:

adb pull /sdcard/<file/dir to backup> <backup destination on pc>
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] almoped:
They said it would not cover the whole screen but I didn't think it would be this extreme. Looking straight down on the device you'd see pixels outside of the screen protector on both sides.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] almoped:
Riffue.cn

This one is wider and covers all the pixels, but since it does not follow the screen curve there's about 1.5mm of free hanging protector on each side.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] almoped:
Panzer.me

For this one they tried to curve it along the screen edge, but it didn't quite fit, which caused large areas where the protector would lift from the screen. The downwards facing edge of the protector seems to be covered in the glue like substance, the central area of the protector did not stick to the phone in any way. Possibly because of the bad fit there would be some air between the protector and phone in the middle of the screen, this caused some missed taps. Away of the center of the protector the touch recognition would be better. This one seemed the least susceptible to fingerprints.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] picard782000:
Thank you for the testing.

So I will not buy one of these.

Maybe I will try a thin l foil or I will use it without any protection.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
thanks to who invented these fu*king curved screens.. for us that always use glass protectors it is simply a nightmare.. or you use protectors as big as the pixeled area and live with the edges coming off, or you take protectors smaller than the pixeled area that looks bad and don't protect all the screen.. damn
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
curious to know if this curved glass would be any better?

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
I am on the road so I cant post any pics, but I have the roxfit curved protector. It does match the screen except the curve isn't perfect thus the very edge around the entire screen is collecting dust. With the screen sensitivity issue however I'm debating on pulling it off. Hitting the same button 2-3 times to get something to register sucks
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] Schumi 01:
To be honest, this is what is putting me off buying this phone is the curved screen, i really dont see the point of it to be honest, tempted to jusct pick up the XZ1 compact instead. :(
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
You really can't even tell the screen is curved at all. Just the edges are slightly. It's not even noticeable.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
yeah if the curved screen is the only thing preventing you from getting this phone, forget it, apart from this (and you'll notice just if you use glass protectors) the phone is simply wonderful in all other aspects ;) l
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] Schumi 01:
Thanks both, best go and check it out in person, perhaps judging it before i have seen it in my hand is a bit negative.

Thanks
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] AgentOrange96:
Bugs of a new phone. The protector I got also overhanged into the curve. (I was under the impression that it was a curved screen protector when buying it, but it was not.) I assume these companies didn't have exact specs or physical phones to get it perfect with, and since we all want our phones protected from day one, they have to release what they got. :/
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
Has anyone found a screen protector that fits halfway decently yet?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] Dxue:
i used a liquid screen protector called nanofixit in the netherlands. it makes the screen super smooth and didn't have a scratch after a week usage without any case. i had to send it back for repair and will have it back tomorrow.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] almoped:
Roxfit

I've tried this one as well and might have a worse fit than what you're experiencing. It was impossible to get a complete seal in the glue around the edge. The bad fit made the center of the screen an especially bad place the get touches registered, even worse then the panzer.me glass. IIRC there was also a shimmering issue between the edge of the LCD and whatever non-stick film they've put under the protector.

Does curved screen protectors exist for other phones that does not rely on a glue around the edges to stay put?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] almoped:
nanofixit

Based on threads in this forum:

https://xdaforums.com/note-4/accessories/nanofixit-liquid-screen-protector-nano-t3215739

and amazon reviews:

https://www.amazon.com/Nanofixit-ONE-Titanium-OFFICAL-antibacterial/product-reviews/B019Y4IPU4

it seems the nanofixit products might not be worth the asking price. (Scam perhaps?)

Did you get your phone back? What was the issue? Do you usually get scratches on phones in a weeks time?

I'm asking because fail to see how a thin layer of liquid could provide any scratch resistance, besides whatever the screen already has. And as such it might just make liquid slide off the screen easily for a while and not much else.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
It is my belief the nano liquid products are a scam. Granted I've never tried it myself.....but I don't see how it could possibly work.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] Dxue:
it was my misstake for not being clearer when posting my message, I have another problem with the phone which is not related to the screen at all. My phone can't receive incoming calls for some reason. The screen is still in a tip top shape and i have also accidentally dropped the phone on a stone floor from around 0,5 meters. Nothing to see on the screen (or the phone for that matter). The reason that it can work in my opinion is that you can have very hard plastic nowadays that is not worse than metal (see carbon fiber for example). If they can keep it in a liuid state and it can harden itself out when in contact with air, why is it not possible? Chemistry is nowadays so advanced I wouldn't be surprised if they can make even better nano coatings, if you have enough money for it
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
Bought Skinomi's protector and it was a perfect fit. It is not a hard screen protector its more of a clear flexible skin. Due to it being flexible it molded right to the curved edges of the screen without any issues. Until they come up with a hard protector this should do just fine though, atleast itll keep minor scuffs and scratches to a minimum.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] viktor1983:
Ultimate Shield seems to do its job - at least for me. Uses glue to stick, but covers the whole screen. Makes a bit harder to register touch sometimes.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] nakata91:
Hi, could you review the film ?

Is it glossy or matte, do we see a lot fingerprints?

how is the touching compared to original glass?

is there a lot of friction with the finger ?

Thanks for the answers ! I have bought a similar flex skin from other brand but not 100 % satisfied about this
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mattnathaniel12:
Sure! As i said the fit perfect. Due to it being flexible it molded to the curved screen without issue. It doesnt leave any more fingerprints then the glass screen seemed to, it wipes off fairly easily. The responsiveness of the screen isnt hindered at all. It does have a little bit of a glossy finish to it, but it isnt horrible in the sun or anything. You finger glides over it very well, I wouldnt say its as smooth as the glass, but nothing that hinders my use. Overall im very pleased with the protector. Another nice thing of note is that it has a lifetime replacement warranty through Skinomi which covers everything from the protector getting a scratch to the protector peeling off. With my order i actually received a return sticker that I can use if i ever do have to return the protector. I would prefer a glass protector, but since it doesnt appear there are any that fit the curved screen yet this is the best option I have seen.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] kfanichet:
Hello !

I've just received my xz2c and tried a glass protector from amazon.fr. It's from the brand "SDTEK" : I was verry pleased with their protections on my z5c but what a disappointment on my xz2c --> it's not as wide as the screen so I still have some unprotected pixels and yet it's not sticking well on the edges. For sure I'll have some dust building up under it.

Honnestly before putting the glass protector I didn't even notice the (slightly) curved screen. I guess now we just have to wait to get some decente protection :(

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
Could you be clearer? Do you think the naked screen will not get scratched by keys or similar (e.g.: sharp-pointed objects) or it won't crack if accidentally dropped? Moreover, what do you think about liquid screen protectors?

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] papayayoghurt:
Has anyone found a screen protector that's at least acceptable and not completely bad?

I tried 3: 2 with "3D-Edges", one with transparent edges, one with black ones. Both were horrible... It felt like there was a 2mm glass on the screen and you could also feel and see a huge difference, in every light conditions.

Then i tried normal screen protectors which are ok, feels worse than a normal glass protector, but better than the aforementioned. But the problem is that they are too big and so dust is being collected under the protector on the sides....

I don't understand, i had an Samsung Galaxy A3 2017 before which also had a curved screen and it was no problem getting a normal good-feeling glass protector. I know that probably not all the screen would be covered but that's not a problem, but why are all available protectors THAT horrible...
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] AgentOrange96:
I got this one, and it's okay. Not great but not totally awful:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F24FN74/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_35WFBb888S4S7

The edges collect some dust, and it only has adhesive around the edges. The screen becomes less sensitive but it's still usable. I left a review and the seller was unhappy that I gave it three stars and asked me to remove my review in exchange for a full refund which I was unhappy about. (I declined this and told them that isn't okay at all) So yeah. It's okay, but not great. Seller is slightly sketch that way. Do with that information what you will.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
Thank you for your reply. Have you had any experience with liquid glass screen protectors? Or could you simply share your opinion about them?
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] YammyDVY:
No experience with them

From what I've seen they do fit the screen without halo effect but theres too much parts where I can mess it up so I would stay away from it, seems good if you can apply it properly

If you mean the liquid you just rub on the screen, those seem like a gimmick, yes it might protect the screen when it's there, but how would you know it's there and actually doing it's job or if it's rubbed off? Imo stay away from it.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. The latter part of your post entirely covers the very same doubt I have. I can't find a single positive review that is not sponsored by the producers themselves, which enforces my concerns. :confused:

I think I'll stick with the first tempered glass panel I've bought, which has all of the problems mentioned above by other users for similar products (it collects dust on the edges) and hope for new developments.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] YammyDVY:
one thing I have seen is this thing called 'white edge reversing liquid' loo it up on ebay/youtube/google it (I can't link, sub 10 post)

it seems 'pretty' promising but I don't know if it'll you need to reapply it a few times to make it permanent

i think it's some oil that people put on the edge of the screen protector to fill in the gaps of the screen protector

I stupidly bought a screen protector that gifted one of those for $10.... didn't think about looking it up and you could get 10 packs of the liquid for $1
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
at last I found good glass curved protections that cover all the screen! very nice without lateral dust anymore etc

https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B07C7S1JQ7/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I only see a sort of liquid effect on some screen areas but just with particular kinds of lightning and anyway it is still much better than the protectors that don't cover the whole screen and also collect dust on the sides!

it doesn't interfere at all also with the cover I got in the past...

well I hope it will last long, but I got a set of 3 for about 15$ so I think for some time I'm covered for a reasonable price! :fingers-crossed::victory::o
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
HI, thanks for sharing your experience. Could you post a picture of your phone with the screen glass on, with a macro of the edges? Besides, does it cover the full screen surface, from edge to edge (yes, I guess, since it has curved edges ?) and from top to bottom? Does it have holes on the top for the sensors, microphone and camera? I think a picture (o several ones, if you don't mind) would answer to everything at once.
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
yes of course they cover the whole screen left-right and top-bottom being a curved glass. it also has 3 holes for speaker, camera and? ambient sensor?

I will try to share pictures but that won't be easy as the xz2c is my main camera tool... will have to search an alternative (good enough) camera...
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
Thank you so so much! I really appreciate this. I asked for the same thing on the Amazon.it product page a while ago, but got no answer at all. Hope to hear from you soon with updates. Thanks! :fingers-crossed::laugh:
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] YammyDVY:
Update: bought 2 types of screen protectors

This one is exactly the same as what op had, I'm this one is the best option ATM if you want a full adhesive screen protector without any halo effect, unfortunately there's like 2mm of both left after right sides that isn't covered, I'm settling with this for now.

[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] FcukBloat:
don't buy them! it lasted a few days, it was all good, then suddenly the sides are lifting up and getting again dust.. it seems the glue is not strong enough I don't know... so they cover the whole screen but after some time they get loose... :( will have to buy new ones! damned curved screens and who invented them!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::crying:
[Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Accessories] mrnld:
