After getting my razr i , i noticed something right away , the case wich it cames in ,shows that navigation buttons have a dimmed backgroud , but actually they'r background is pretty dark and do not desappear on multimedia playback , rendering a 4 inches screen instead of the 4.3 display featured on the same case picture the phone comes , maybe im missing something in configurations or so , but been looking arround and have found nothing , otherwise great phome ,cant wait till i get home and unlock that bootloader
thx in advance , and again sry if this is a silly question
p.d.: attached a picture of the case

Yes, mine does that.
Yes disappears on video playback, and on some landscape oriented games - they're unobtrusive when they need to be.
I've had my RAZR i a few weeks now and on certain screens, vertical banding is clear from top to bottom when in portrait. It's more noticeable on screens with solid colors. For example, the blue screen when Facebook is loading and the grey screen when My Apps page is loading on Google Play. Its not excessive, but is visibly there.
Is this normal for the screen? Are other people seeing this light banding, or is this just my phone? I don't see the same banding on my old Nexus One.
I'm not seeing this on my RAZRi. Just checked it on both apps you mentioned

Yeah mine too.
It seems the V screen a little yellowish. It look like the S if I set the brightness low. Even at full brightness on V still look like 50% on S.

Hey guys, its known that the sp has the same floating touch hardware as xperia sola. Sadly sony installed chrome as default browser wich doesnt support hovering. Can anyone of you install next browser or opera to test weather hovering over a link gives you a mouseover?
Also try weather hiverring on flipboard works like on sgs4. Please report here!
Thank you

I can scroll pages by hovering in chrome, but I don't think pop-ups like the Note 2 are possible.

NO NO NO!!
Dont use that! Thats for gingerbread it will mess up your phone! What we are talking about is using the phone without touching the screen. This is included in the xperia sp already, no need for any mod i will give you instructions how to do that:
-make sure glovemod is enabled
-go to the lockscreen and hover over the screen a little bit, not to close and not to far away from it
-if you see the screen recognizing any touch keep that distance and try to unlock your phone without touching it
-enjoy using your screen without touching it
I come from the sola thats why i know that, the sola was the first device to feature glovemode, it came with the ics update.

Ah, that explains why glove mode didn't work after unlocking without gloves. That confused me a bit.
And yeah, Chrome doesn't recognize it as a hover. I'll try some other browsers...

I tested this on a couple of browsers (Boat, Chrome, Dolphin, Firefox, Next, Opera) and as far as I see the glove mode "hover" is simply interpreted as a single touch (opening the link) or long press (selecting text, giving options for opening in new tab, etc.).
The only browser that gave me a mouseover text (well, part of it anyway) on an image was Firefox.

Wait a minute. You tested this after following my instructions above right? You didnt get me. The instructions where for how you can use your phone without touching the screen, everywhere in every app with floating touch interpreted as single touch.
But when it comes to the browser hovering dont do that. Test the browsers with unlocking your screen normal, then hovering should be interpreted as mouseover on browsers that support it.
I guess i am gonna write a F.A.Q about Floating touch.

Huh, okay. I misunderstood then. Still, after unlocking the screen normally it didn't work either.
Anyway, I've just had a look at the Sony support forums and the question if the SP has Floating Touch has been answered that it doesn't. It has glove mode instead.
So it's not the browsers' fault after all.

Hello XDA community.
Me and my best friend have Xperia Z1 for a month now.
We saw some difrence betwen our phones (He have yellowish screen comparing to my White, and also under sunlight i have almost completly black screen, while he have more red color screen).
I did know the name of aplication which can check Who manufacture our display but cant remember.
Can anyone tell me if knows.
Thank you XDA. All the best.

Not too sure on the manufacturer, you could try the service menu.
*#*#service#*#*
As for the tint, if youve unlocked the boot loader (read up about it if you haven't) you can install doom kernel then modify your white balance and then install pimp my xperia from play store and mod it again. You can strike a decent balance using the two of them and you can nearly eliminate the yellow tint. Worth a try.
Just don't forget to research first if the boot loader is still locked.

Unfortunately we got carrier locked bootloaders, so that is not option for us.
That diference dosent bother us at all, we are just curious which company made our LCD panels.
We had similar stuff on Xperia S, where you can actually read who made it, but cant remember the app name :/
Anyway, thank you for your effort
You have to be Rooted and Terminal Emulator.
Here is the Original thread which explain how to do it.

This is mine, Sharp Renesas 1080p video, the other once can be JDC Renesas 1080p video.
Which one is the better one?
BTW, with Terminal Emulator you can check the ID panel even without Root, just type this code
Code:
cd /sys/devices/mdss_dsi_panel
cat panel_id
Hi, thank you for reply.
I tryed with this Un rooted method and it gives me message "access is denied".
Maybe i need to root it after all.

I have a yellowish screen too, I'm using these white balance settings, yellow tint is almost entirely gone and it also adds saturation, tell your friend to give it a try.
