Like tapin4par, I love the lack of camera bump. There probably some trade-off with picture quality but the camera quality good enough for me.

Don't like how it reminds me too much of the iPhone. I wish phone design go back to the more angular look. Soft edges is fine but don't add curve to the corners. This is especially true for the display. I really do not like how the display has rounded corners.

It's nice and smooth in your hand. It's weighted nicely for one-hand use if your hands are big enough. Mini view feature is hard to activate with one hand, so that kind of defeats the purpose.

cellular is good, data has been almost flawless....

the only thing that seems to act up is when I open pandora it often says "you appear to be office switching to offline station" ...when I have great service... but like I said its only that.

I frequently stream video and use it as a hotspot (I run an IT company) those work fine.

sucked with the DTS setting on, better without.

while in a call you can pressw the volume up and select boost, that helps a lot...

as someone whos on the phone a lot (business owner) I usually carry a bluetooth earpiece, that works great,
[LG G8X ThinQ Real Life Review] tapin4par:
It could be louder both for calls and video playback.
[LG G8X ThinQ Real Life Review] AxelR11:
It's true that the DTS for the speaker have a live effect who is not quite good. But, DTS and Quad DAC are good both with a good headset.
[LG G8X ThinQ Real Life Review] Vatharian:
The loudness is... satisfactory, but not exceptional. Clarity is atrocious. Sounds is flat, uninspiring, and completely lacking anything beside human speech range. Low trebles are overpronounced, highs are quiet, and bass is completely non-existent. In-call quality is surprisingly good, but turn on loudspeaker and ears bleed.

LG V30 has MUCH BETTER speakers, both for media consumption and calls.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] senortech:
Hello can any one help. How can I purchase a z1compact from eBay with a unlockable boot loader. What am I looking for? eg. an international version, or one from a specific region. I have one already but the bootloader unlock allowed =no. It is rooted and I have twrp recovery but I want to upgrade or flash a android 7.0 custom rom .Any solutions for that. I don't want to end up with two phones with seem problem.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] 115ek:
I can't answer your question directly. It's more an alternative solution which I think should work (at least you can try...).

If you've got a working TWRP you should be fine. Installing AICP/lineage/whatever shouldn't be a problem then, even with a locked BL.

Just boot to TWRP, wipe /data, /system and caches and install the firmware you'd like to have.

Only downside: If something breaks and you can't even enter TWRP you have to use the sony repair/flashtool and reinstall stock. Then repeat the rooting + TWRP installing stuff...

Make sure you've installed a recent (and working) TWRP version as for installing ROM's starting from oreo you need at least TWRP 3.2.x if I remember correctly.

BTW: Why do you want to install 7.0 / nougat? It's outdated and not updated anymore. I'd suggest using android 9

AICP 14

LineageOS 16

or android 8

LineageOS 15.1

or even android 5

LineageOS 12.1

These builds are updated at least monthly. And the first three of them also provide OTA update support which makes things very comfortable.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] senortech:
Thanks so much for your reply. Although I'll say it left me surprised. After researching the last couple of days ,even here on this site I was lead to believe that an unlocked bootloader was absolutely essential to flash a custom rom not based on stock firmware much less upgrade to a later version of android. However I am more than willing to take your word for it seeing that you are one of the modders for the Rom I would like to try "LoS 15 Oreo". I fully understand that the risk is totally mine. A further question, I currently run andriod 5.1.1 with dual custom recovery twrp and cwm, how do I update my current twrp version 2 . Something to the latest recommended. Do I flash the new zip with my current twrp recovery ?
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] 115ek:
Well, at first I have to apologize for the "optimistic" answer. There's one "small" detail I forgot about. It's the boot.img signature which may cause problems. However I don't know if Sony was enforcing the verified boot / signature checking even with android L. This would mean the bootloader checks, if the boot.img was signed with Sony keys - if not: it'll enter a bootloop (or doesn't turn on at all). Unlocking the bootloader then allows you to also boot unsigned images.

But I didn't tried booting custom images with locked BL on my own ;)

So I guess it's a try and error thing here... Most likely you'll end up unsuccessfully :(

However you can still give it a try. Can you post the output of

cat /proc/partitions

when you're in recovery? (TWRP has an inbuilt terminal, or you can use adb shell).

At first you need an independent recovery - which means it can boot up without needing the stock boot.img. That's your current configuration: original sony kernel boots up and you decide which ramdisk it should load by pressing vol+/-.

That's why it's actually no real recovery. If something in boot.img breaks you won't be able to reach recovery anymore.

So I think of following steps now:

Make sure you've installed the latest sony firmware

install the bootloader patch from [MENTION=4120742]munjeni[/MENTION] (he also states you need a unlockes BL, so it's not really promising :rolleyes: Maybe he can jump in and give further clarification here?)

install TWRP (e.g. this) with dd like this (change your inputfile accordingly):

dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

if you strike it lucky you'll be able to boot into the new real recovery with: poweroff device; hold VOL down and power until vibration; release power but keep holding VOL down until TWRP screen comes up (needs ~10 seconds or so)

To be honest: I lost my confidence a bit. Maybe buying a device with unlockable BL is the way to go. I suppose the devices sold with contracts by big carriers like Vodafone or Telekom (however they are called in your country) DON'T have unlockable BL's. So devices without a simlock may have a good chance to be unlockable. However - that's just a guess.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] JIJOK:
Well doing some research found an interesting Movistar forum stuff : if you unlock your phone ( free to use whatever SIM you want ) then its possible to change "bootloader allowed : no to yes" . At least thats what the spanish thread says ( https://comunidad.movistar.es/t5/So...not-allowed/m-p/2404928/highlight/true#M26138 )

1- After make your phone SIMfree it says to do a factory reset and check if allowed : yes

2- Also says that you need to send phone to sony tech fisic store

3- Or using Sony pc companion

I am not sure why it says that need to deliver the phone to sony store since online bootloader is kids game, but thats what the thread says

Finally, if you want to buy a new one, all unlocked phones ( no carrier ) will let you unlock bootloader ...... 99% sure :fingers-crossed:

ps : my english is horrible, I hope you understand it

I got an issues with the whole mobile office suite. I had office mobile 6.1 installed from Microsoft site for my windows 6 pro device, and all was working well. However, now nothing is working. Excel gives me a pxl error, word says it can't open a file, or even create a new file. Okay so i thought I would reinstall it and see what happens, but it won't let me saying I have a newer version installed or something. So uninstall it same issue with the installer, not to mention the same issue with the whole office suite. So what can I do? Btw my device never came with one note nor did it get installed with office 6.1. Thank you.
[General Topics] yrsmart:
Anyone please?
[General Topics] wovens:
What I would try, if I had this problem would be uninstall again, then use a file manager to search and totally remove program files and folders related to office, then search the registry with a registry tool and remove all signs of Office, then install it again. The registry bit can be tricky if you don't know what you are doing but I would try anyway!

Yeah I would do that but it seems like my computer won't let me use the MSI file to install the 6.1 update.
