Hey all.
All the info 'on' my phone says I have the C6603. In settings and also *#*#7378423#*#* shows I have a C6603. I'm on O2 locked. Just connected my phone to PC companion and it said I have a C6602.
I did root my phone last week and installed a ROM or 2, but in the end reverted back to my original firmware via Flash Tool and have been on this since.
Am I missing something?
Which bands are shown under configuration in the service menu?

Searched a lot!!
I've searched in the middle east for the C6603 model but unfortunately it's not available, only the C6602. Any idea if it's existing in the middle east or will it be available sometime in the future?
I guess the only difference between both is the LTE, right?

Difference between C6602 and C6603
Hi,
"The difference between those two only in Data network technology. The C6603 support 4G LTE with three band 3G HSDPA, the C6602 only support five band 3G HSDPA without LTE."
I have Sony Xperia Z C6603 purple bought from Ankara/Turkey. We do not have 4G. But "dual carrier" option form Turkcell and Vodafone.
I have heard, after 4,2 a final 4,22 version will be the final for 4.x.x serie. They will pass 5.x.x after that.
Do anyone hopes or waits for a Windows 8 variant from Sony? Generally after 1 year, Sony makes a slight upgrade but not is OS base. Like first Walkman phone w800 a slightly updated w810 become available in 2006. So I am not waiting a Windows 8 phone from Sony before 2015.
The biggest disadvantage for this phone, it definitely needs a charging dock. USB port, may become loose and allow water, after some time.:angel: They must have include it to the retail box, rather than selling it as an option. (coded as DK26 in three color)
The second disadvantage is onboard memory. 16GB is too low. Usable memory left about 10GB! Yes, but gladly we have SD memory slot. I have searched Sony's Japanese site, it says there is support for 64GB for Xperia Z like ZL. Generally this option is marked as 32GB for Xperia Z. This is probably because of, Sony still doesn't produce 64GB SD memory.
Another slight problem comes from cassette tape time. FM reception still needs headphone cord. I am 43 now, this headphone cord for FM necessity comes from +25 years, as far as I know. We have every antenna in the case, but not for this FM radio. I have bored connecting the headphones plugged in for it! Moreover, why not a TV in it? Some countries cut VHF and UHF shortwave TV signals in 2012 like US. But in Europe and Asia, it still is an essential thing. Some kind of very cheap Chinese originated mobile phones, gives you a phone with TV with a telescopic antenna. By the way, my Xperia Z box writes on the box "Made in China" too.:silly:
Well never mind, it is a good phone for now. I will have a try from an inflatable sea bed this summer. If I become successful, I will think, worth buying it!:victory:
They can't just pull out tv without any support
Japanese Tablet Z has a tv antenna but nowhere else (afaik), there's no support.
And for the radio it's probably because it's been replaced by internet services like spotify, nobody uses the radio

I've find that the audio port is annoying it would be nice from Sony not to cover the port, rather seal it from the inside. So even if water does get in is not goes into the phone. That way we should be able to use it without consequences ... Stupid design, and if you use headset and water (rain) goes in, you lose warranty ... unfortunately..... I working on the repair line.... seen a lots of them. BUT you cannot prove that, and you could say that the cover is not closing properly. So there is a chance that your phone get repaired within sony's warranty. keep that in mind, not all contracted service stations accept that.

About the LTE not working, i guess u should check with your carrier coz i guess you have to apply for it for extra charge per month, or maybe your area doesn't cover LTE.

My friend offered to sell me his Xperia T from Rogers, but I'm unsure if it has 1700/AWS for HSPA+ (aka T-Mobile/ Wind Mobile HSPA). Does anyone know if it does for sure?
I know the LT30p Xperia T has that frequency as well as the LT29i Xperia TX.
Because according to the white paper http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/documentation/whitepapers/Xperia_T_LTE_WP_1.pdf it does,
The LT30at Xperia TL from AT&T does not have it as stated in the white paper: http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/documentation/whitepapers/Xperia_TL_WP_4.pdf
Does anyone know for sure if the LT30a has HSPA AWS/1700? I've also googled around and I've been getting mixed contradicting answers.
Forgot to add in, the Rogers site says it doesn't... Very confusing! http://www.rogers.com/web/link/wire...=normal&productId_Detailed=XPERIATBLK&N=52+11

He said C6616... first I think we should confirm that OP actually has a C6606 as you've outright assumed here. For all we know he could have some strange C6616 dev unit which will explode if you flash C6603 software on it.
Also, can you even flash C6603 software on the C6606?
The C6616 is just a other north American version that supports att bands and lte bands as well that's it. Nothing else is different. From what I found out.

root c6616 (6603 tft)
I can confirm this works. I was able to flash over *with a locked boot loader* a c6603 ftf. Going through the carrier settings I'm not quite sure if LTE works... H+ shows up even with "LTE/GSM" PRL automatic selected; and it actually dropped often. Though I think it was due to the signal strength in my basement at the time.
A couple things to note:
You'll lose the HDR option in smart camera
Elements on the screen oddly have a box that disappears after a couple seconds upon waking the device
Navigation Ring to google search fails (probably a bug) it will display an error that you're not connected to the web. (fails OTA and wifi)
Honestly seems a little slower with the kernel change (you'll see elements loading on your lock screen from a cold boot)
Task window right button from the home button acts weird. sliding to close an open/previous app closes the tasker.
no point in going to AOKP, or CM10.2 yet on this device... at least when I received mine it was at 4.2.2 out of the box (Aug. 15. 2013) unless you absolutely need root (sixaxis, supersu, etc.) don't bother. The c6616 will run unsigned apps.

For LTE to work you have to go into the APN settings and manually enter your carriers LTE settings. That's what I had to do on T-Mobile, anyway.

Maybe LTE isn't available in your area yet? Also you may want to flash your phones firmware to the latest .534 unbranded version. In that version multiple users have reported seeing a LTE toggle in the settings that isn't present on the .518 firmware that the phone ships with.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2452814
Just go to page 8 and find my post.
If you're coming from a phone that wasn't LTE capable, you might have to call T-Mobile and tell them to turn it on.
While on AT&T, I had to use a standby iPhone 4 I owned while I was waiting for parts to fix my GNote. Due to physically incompatable SIM cards, I had to go to an AT&T store to get a microSIM for the iPhone. Once my GNote was up and running, I couldn't get LTE because AT&T thought I was still using an iPhone.
I know, long story. But maybe this'll solve your woes.

Stupid question:
I have a UK Xperia Z on O2 and am due to move to the US at the end of the year. I'll need to get a contract with a US carrier of course, but my question is whether my UK Xperia Z will work with a US carrier? As said it might be a daft question but I wasn't sure and I dont want to find out when I'm sitting in a hotel in New York wondering why my phone doesn't work.
Won't you get a new phone with a new contract?

Yes it will work. I believe on att as far as hspa+ and T-Mobile edge. I'm 90% sure as I have had a few carrier locked international phones that were completely unlocked once over here in the states. So I don't see why this would be any difference.
You won't be able to get LTE (4G) in some regions with AT&T since they use 2 different LTE bands which one is not compatible with the Z.

The smartest move is to sell it in the UK and buy a new phone in the US. The Xperia Z you have is not compatible with US LTE bands and probably not with T-Mobile's AWS 3G+.

I've searched on the web, but can't find out if the EVA-L09 model of the P9 is available as yet. If not, does anyone have an idea when the release date would be? And where would one order it from to have it shipped to Canada?
Thanks!
I've been looking out for the P9 EVA-L09 variant too. Unfortunately the EVA-L09 is only just now starting to be released in Europe so they're not widely available yet. There's at least one UK seller (listed on US Amazon and US eBay) that wants a ridiculous US$989 for an EVA-L09. I'm guessing it'll be a month or so before there's enough EVA-L09s available so that the price will become more reasonable.
What's interesting is that the EVA-L09 is listed on amazon.de (549 Euros) with a note that it cannot be shipped to the US. Huawei really doesn't want the phone to go to the US it seems.
It looks as if you have an S7 already so you could wait the three months or so for the price to come down.
I saw this on eBay. I don't know if it's really an EVA-L09.

I think it's common to have delays from sellers abroad (abroad for me at least) so I wouldn't be too worried yet. It might also be a delayed shipping tracking update too.
Ordered my EVA-L09 from them and it arrived FAST via DHL., This model is the only one with NFC right, well I set it up with MetroPcs and i had yet to see LTE on it, it only says 4G, why it that......

What kind of speeds are you seeing? Not sure why it says 4G, but technically LTE is 4G...
It's pretty fast but I thought it would say LTE by the end of it, really strange, this model has all the LTE bands for MetroPCS, which is Band 2,4 and 12. Checked under settings and it's on LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto, so is there a settings you have to trip in order for LTE to show up behind 4G or what, i got this model because it's the only one with NFC and was only $500, I love the phone, much more powerful then my old P7.

You are getting LTE Speeds most likely. Just download the speedtest app and run a test. I have the 64gb chinese version and it also says 4G, not LTE.

Has anyone seen a L29 version out anywhere? The international unlocked 4gb/64gb version? I can't seem to find anything anywhere.

4g and LTE are the exact same thing, depending on the theme you use it will either say 4g or lte. BUT THEY ARE THE SAME

I have the chinese version and no matter what theme you put on, it never says LTE. On top of that you get 2 x 4G indicators. One for the 4G/LTE and the other is for the reception. Really annoying. See the screenshot. Does the same thing on wi-fi also. I spoke to Paul O'Brien which I am sure most of you all know who he is. He has the euro version and you do not get the 2 x 4G thingie or a 4G icon on top of the reception bars when you are on wi-fi.
I also have an issue with trying to install Fenix. Play store shuts down the second I click on Install. It only happens with Fenix. Odd stuff here and there.

I have this same exact problem! It's the only app I use that does this. I was sure it was due to a faulty restore from backup but now I know it's the phone. Was going to do a full reset but sounds like that won't help so thanks for pointing this out. Have you contacted the developer about this? I haven't found another twitter app I like as much as Fenix.

Yeah I reached out to the developer last night but have not heard anything back. I wonder if it's the Chinese version only or the Global one as well. I asked Paul O'Brien but haven't heard back from him either.

Fenix works fine for me. I have a UK Vodafone EVA-L09.

Then, definitely a Chinese version issue. It will shut the play store down when you hit install.

Just got my P9 (L09). Says 4G, but I see LTE speeds (128MB up, 41MB down).
