Xperia Z1 Water Test

Xperia Z1 Water Test Thank you for watching.

On a serious note, we should have the Water Proof test on the Service Menu. And currently, it says "Device does not support the function"... Tested it on water-resistant and waterproof devices from Xperia Go, Acro S, V, Z, ZR, Z Ultra and Z1, and sadly, Xperia Go has only this function working.
so when will Sony incorporate it on our device, and as you market Z1, the waterproof cameraphone?

Water test for xperia z2

what are the basic steps that i have to do before testing or putting xperia z2 in water ????

Make sure all the lids covering USB and micro SIM and microSD ports are properly closed.Do pay attention that the phone can be submerged up to 1 m and 30 minutes in fresh water.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us - J.R.R. Tolkien

Sony Xperia Z1 Water Resistivity false advertising and poor service from service center

I have bought Sony Xperia Z1 from eBay on 31 October 2013. I have been using this phone for nearly a year. The phone was good in performance but comes to water resistivity it will resist water for a few months but after few months even though the card slot and all flops are closed, the water gets in.I have faced this on 7th September when i was about to take a photo in pool, the water gets in and the phone was dead. And i took it to the service center ( Repair and Return Technology (I) Pvt Ltd) Egmore, chennai, on 9th September 2014. On 15th September i got a call that i have to pay nearly 20000 to rectify the phone. Then i called the service center and also sent mail to [email protected] and said that i was not satisfied with the reply. Then few days i again got mail like below

They just mention the flags turn red and so the water has got in. They were unable to explain how the water got in. I have seen several forums that many users facing this kind of issues even all the flaps are closed. I was completely stressed and depressed to hear this. I halfheartedly asked the service center to do the service on 1 October 2014. Today's date is 11 October 2014 but still now i haven't heard any update from SONY. When i asked SONY customer care or service center, they dont even know the status of the product, they saying that the phone has been given for service to next level, I have to wait for few days, But i have been waiting for 1 month. I was completely fed up with Sony Service as they are not even called me once regarding this. I have to call each and every time and not even get proper reply. Its very irritating.
If SONY is viewing this do necessary action or else you'll lose a premium customer and more customers in future.
Even though i got the phone how can i use this phone in water ? I completely lost trust in SONY and never buy any SONY product again. I'll go for Micromax next time.
Order No.W114090906449
Sony XPERIA Z1, Model No. C6902,
IMEI No.
I see many users here are suffering the same problem,
Beware of buying Xperia Water resistant products as it may not guarantee waterproof and they don't even give warranty if your phone got water.

Narayanan
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have had the same problem I have wrote to customer services and I keeping the same reply, that the phone has to be less than 1.5 meters, less than half an hour....... blah blah blah.
My phone failed in water and I had met all the conditions but they keep fobbing me off I have asked why they advertise the phone as waterproof when obviously its not. The last reply I got was well it might not be waterproof.
Absolute rubbish the phone and the customer service. and dont get me started on the smartwatch that failed in water as well it never worked I threw it in the bin.
Aviod sony products absolute junk I say.

Xperia Z2 water damage

so i was playing in a pool and i dropped the phone to the bottom, wasnt too bothered, it took a minute for my friend and i to find it, but when i picked it up, the micro sd flap was openand there was water in it.i shook most of it out and started trying to su ck the water out of it with my mouth, (with both flaps open) i can see a litmus indicator by the sim is pinkish, but cant see one by the sd card, (i know it got through there anyways). the cameras and led had water vapour in it, and i kept su cking it out until it wasnt visible any more, but it is back now.when trying to charge it, it goes red and vibrates three times. I am aboout to get a hair dryer (vacuum if i can find one, im in a holiday house) and then put it in some rice. will this work? or is it too late? are there any other better ways to get the water out?

If your actions don't work then you could either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care and have your device inspected http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

Wireless keboard and mouse water test

I just saw this video featured up on our facebook page and thought I'd share it here. Lee definitely has a flair for the dramatic and I think his "still works" demonstration is pretty compelling. Check it out!

Maybe Lenovo could offer a keyboard similar to the Model M (maybe slightly less reliable).

Compare cameras one x ,4s,gs3,xperia s

http://crave.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/samsung-galaxy-s3-vs-iphone-4s-vs-htc-one-x-vs-xperia-s-camera-test-...
i must say i'm a bit disappointed with the xperia s cam. although it has a 12.1 megapixels
what do u think?

Sure looks like there are mayor differences in between different producers phone's and how they handle different environments. Wouldn't it be weird if that wasn't the case also?
Some phone's camera's are better at handling one interaction then the next one, but might be not so good in the next interaction.
Good to bring up a comparison so people/user's can see there are differences!
What do you think about this forum? Let us know by doing this short survey.

Z1 bluetooth and network problem after updating to 1.136

Hi,
Last week I updated my phone via PC companion when it notified me a new system update was available. The update took me from Android 4.2.2 to 4.3, and the biuld number is now 14.2.A.1.136.
I use my phone with a SmartWatch 2 all the time, and a SBH20 bluetooth headset in my car. Before the update everything worked fine, but now I have issues with bluetooth connectivity. My SmartWatch 2 randomly disconnects and reconnects to the phone, and so does the headset. In the watch, specifically the Whatsapp notification app by LIS software stopped getting notifications most of the time, although every once in a while it does. The SBH20 also randomly disconnects and sometimes it takes minutes to reconnect by itself. I already unpaired and paired again both devices, even reset the SmartWatch, and the problem persists.
But the most recurrent issue is that the phone repeatedly notifies me to "Sign in to network"... and has problems connecting to the 4G and even to wi-fi networks, meaning that sometimes I don't get any data at all for who knows how long, because it happens randomly.
One thing that seems to me is that every time i lose my bluetooth connections it's because (or at the same time) of whatever happens that triggers the "Sign in to network" notification.
I was really happy of having purchased the whole package of phone, watch and headset, please help me with this.

This is the responses I go from Sony "Customer DON'T Care....." regarding bluetooth issues -
"We can advise Sony Xperia do not test our products with other manufacturer’s devices and so we can not confirm the two devices are compatible.
As the handset has been updated this does indicate it is running different software which means the Bluetooth will have also been updated. Sadly, as Sony Xperia does not test our products with third party Bluetooth devices we will not have been able to foresee the change with your specific device.
We could only suggest that you contact the manufacturer of the device for any further assistance as there is nothing further we could advise.
We do apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.
It is not that the software does not work it is the fact that we have updated the bluetooth drivers withing the update you have which no longer makes the bluetooth compatable with your car kit, if you ahve not contacted the car manufacturer already then I would suggest contacting them and seeing if there are any updates needed to the car kit."
Mmmmmm... so it seems that they DO NOT test any O/S upgrades against anything.....
It seems strange that both Samsung(S3 running 4.3) and HTC M* (running 4.4.2) both work perfectly with my car audio system and the "developers" at Sony cant... either that or they just do not care... The smart money is on the latter... My z1 is THE WORST PHONE THAT I HAVE EVER HAD THE MISFORTUNE OF OWNING....

Drivers error (fastboot and flashmode) on Windows 8.1

Hi,
After update Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, fastboot and flashmode (so Sony Mobile Update also) doesn't works.The phone (any Xperia. I tested Xperia J and Xperia LWW) is detecting as 'not recognized USB device'.
I'm sure that this is not my computer/phone problem. Probably existing drivers is not compatible with newest Windows.
I tried to reinstall the software / drivers - still not working.
On Ubuntu fastboot and flashmode works well.

At the moment, PC Companion and Update Service does not support software update/repair of Sony Xperia P, Sony Xperia J or Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman in Windows 8.1.

Upgrade to 3.0.1 made 3GS not work on 3G or EDGE, advices?!

(Before i start, don't upgrade to 3.0.1 if your phone works!)
Hey people,
I just got my 3gs, it was working perfectly until I decided to upgrade to 3.0.1, now my phone won't go on 3g or edge network. I can still use the wifi, but it beats the purpose.
Please any advice?
The phone works, ipod works, wifi works. Already done reset, restart, might consider downgrading... or unlocking.

I suppose my complaint is more to do with attitude than the net result. My phone did not need replacing as such, as it was a perfectly good phone, the problems were software related. A simple downgrade would have alleviated the situation, and possibly an explanation as to why there might be a problem would have been nice. I would not expect that sort of service from perhaps a regular store employee as they are not expected to have that technical information, but to warrant the title of Genius I personally feel should carry more weight.
The distance travelled irked me because the issue could have been resolved on my first trip to the store by simply handing the phone in and receiving a new one there and then, as my consultation took less than 5 minutes. I know it is policy to go through the Genius first, but as they carried out the water test and the obligatory "Have you restored it?" question the first time, I didn't see the point in having to go through it again, as that is ALL HE DID!
I felt the Time was important as the employee in question had not had to spend the day fielding
Possibly my disappointment is misdirected in this instance and my personal grievance lies with an increasingly disparate customer service attitude in this country (UK)??
Yes I did get a new phone, but did I feel I was treated well by a company that portrays itself as a friendly, approachable and trouble free? No, and there lies the rub.

No adjustable Equaliser for N8

My 6500 slide had a very nice adjustable music equaliser. It is disappointing that this feature was left out for the N8. I very much hope that you will address this issue in your next software update. There are many other N8 owners who feel the same as me.

iphone 4 got a water testing paper inside the earphone jack, when it rains, water testing paper turn pinkish when I try to plugin my headset, and I risk losing my warranty. So I think Nokia's original design is better to protect the phone.
And I stuck my phone into my jeans front pocket, with the jack at the phone's bottom, it is quite an natural gesture when I pull out my phone to use, but with with a jack-on-the-top-phone, I have to flip it upside down every time.
And I dun prefer to do the other way round in order to protect the fit contact of the socket and the earphone plug.
Maybe minor issue, maybe I'm with Nokia for too long. Sorry for my pathetic English.

Device Loaner Program

Hello,
I have some questions about device loaner program of sony!
First, Sony said they will pay delivery cost for using this service.
I wonder it means one-way delivery cost or round-trip cost??
Next, one page(http://developer.sonymobile.com/services/borrow-a-phone/) said, "The program is aimed at the U.S. and Canadian market; we cannot ship devices outside of the U.S. and Canada."
However, the other page(http://developer.sonymobile.com/2012/04/18/developer-borrow-an-xperia-smartphone-and-test-your-app/) said, "The service is completely free, and initially aimed at the U.S. and Canadian market.
If you’re a developer outside of these markets, please be aware that you’ll be paying for international shipping fees, plus applicable customs/duties for your particular destination."
Which one is correct? im really confused.
I hope someone used this program plz give me answers asap thanks!

I'm not sure but I suggest that you contact Developer World directly.

Any reason why ipad 2 32gb and 64gb is not being sold, less the refurbished ones?

As stated in the title

I'm aware of your second link. It is factually an iPad 2. iPad 2,4 marks the 4th hardware revision of iPad 2. What's interesting is that Apple is leveraging on the demand of the iPad's predecessor to "test run" newer technologies like HKMG adopted by Samsung Electronics in the recent years. I'll explain more.
In layman, HKMG essentially allows shrink the die of the processor. By packing the instruction set and everything on a smaller semiconductor, it results in material savings and various other performance benefits with the main one being
Power savings, as mentioned in the link (I'm already aware too) due to operating efficiency (good use in the future)
Better thermal management - the natural effect of reducing inefficiencies also leads to less heat production
Bottom line is, this technology is fairly new. Definitely, Apple wants to put newer processors like the A5X or any other future processors on a 32nm architecture because the natural efficiency benefits will help mitigate power consumption issues stronger chips may cause. But, Apple is testing the water by putting this on an already stable iPad 2 running a stable A5, that's why they don't making a "A5 v2" available to iPad 2.
I also have to tell you, it's a true litmus test or water test. The New iPad's A5X runs on 45nm. Which shows they aren't really ready for the technological advancement. Apart from this change, the iPad 2's still an iPad 2. If you haven't considered the iPad 2,4 an iPad 2, you should.
The iPad 2s should still be available. Look around regional Apple sites. I'm seeing them on mine as well.
