that _IS_ the Z1 promo 
well i hope you got my point. that's not what we've seen in the ads and in many other marketing materials for the new xperias. it's even the first time for me to see that "zi promo"  |

quit being abrasive and sensitive. you're always apparently getting offended when someone says something not so nice about the xperias. |

on a lighter note ......not
so my Z1 has been working perfectly for about a week now without a glitch after I replaced the screen
got a text message and picked it up and the touch is dead - screen is fine but the touch is completely unresponsive, reluctantly I dismantled it to check nothing has come undone and it was fine - checked all the connections all ok, so I dismantled it again and put my old screen back in to verify that everything was working and the old screen was fine
so now it seems that the digitiser circuitry has developed a fault - the are several drive chips that support the touch screen and one of them must have caved - I am completely gutted, probably 1 in 1000 that would fail this way, I even took antistatic precautions when working with the phone
so now I'm going to have to send the new screen back for replacement and will probably take at least a month
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr |

I know how you feel.
I went through such cr...p once with X2.
It made me leave SE for half a year for WP7.
I still don't know what was the issue but the screen started to act like I was touching it,
although I wasn't.

yeh I know I was really pleased that everything turned out good, I even emailed the screen supplier a few days ago letting them know how pleased I was
very tempted to just buy another Z1 and keep that one as a spare once I've fixed it, I'd probably be looking at 6 weeks before it's up and running again and I can't live with my P1i for that long lol
At least I now the innards blindfolded - I could take that thing apart and back together in about 30mins now I've had so much practise |

yeah if you can afford it, get another Z1 or a Z1 compact and use the "broken" one as a spare.
that's what i'd do.. just a matter of what you can afford.

I've gone through some money with phones this past year......Z stolen 500gbp - Ultra bought and sold with slight loss 100gbp - Z1 broke the screen myself 400gbp plus 150 for parts to repair, just ordered a new Z1 360gbp
= nearly 1500gbp the last 12 months
but I guess I now have 2x Z1's lol - and a huge collection of headsets and chargers |

In standby mode. Press and hold shutter button to access camera. It will be in SA mode. You will be able to take picture without screen lock, screen lock will only appear when you want to change mode or review your photo which you just took. |

Xperia SP Android 4.3 screenshots leak; could the update be arriving very soon? on XBlog.
Did you see the screenshot?
There's the WHITE BALANCE setting! Hopefully it already comes with the latest Z1 FW along with the Background Defocus camera app (wishing also the Glove Mode would be included).
I'm looking on the release of the next FW along with the release of either Z1^s or Z1 Compact. |

white balance is coming to come with new update in Jan by xperia support team at the official sony forum. Background defocus is exclusive to Z1s, but will most likely make available for the original Z1 in some way. Glove mode will never happen, its not a software feature, Z1 doesn't have the hardware. |
