Hmm wierd, just tried again at home. Inside! And it worked almost instantly... Earlier today when it didnt lock i was near forrest with large trees. Maby why, but my phones before have never had that problem..
NEAR or IN forrest ? THAT will make a big difference .................

I own my Z1 now for about a week and from the beginning I feel that the GPS is working very slow on this phone. Does anybody feels the same?
When I make photos on the phone the first picture also doesn't get location tagged by itself and for example a parking app gives warning about unexact location for the first minute. What can I do for that?
Don't know, my gps is lightning fast

Mine's ok... Not spectacular or anything but not different from my S3!
Does anyone know if this setting drains the battery faster when enabled?.
Thanks ?

Well if gps is enabled it certainly drains battery and not opening gps makes this app useless

It may be the case the app uses the network as well as the GPS.

it does not appear so. i have it activated on my Z1 which leads us to my quick weekend NYC story..... i actually use the Google Android Device Manager service on my Z1 to be able to track it and lock it and erase it.
This last weekend I was in NYC for work and was just getting to the hotel and paid my cabbie (with a nice tip too) and as i walked into the hotel felt my SW2 vibrate and realized my phone was sitting in the backseat of the cab.
Had my co-worker call it over and over with no initial luck. I realized I had just enabled Device Manager on it and went to my Google Device Manage webpage on the iPad Mini and saw the phone sitting at the Laguardia. I then rang the phone (it basically will ring constantly for five minutes) and then called it again and got a hold of the cabbie and he even said he'd drop it off at the end of his shift.
So throughout the rest of the day I watched my phone travel all over NYC from Manhattan to NJ and back to my hotel where i generously tipped the driver again in cash and smiled and thanked him graciously!
I LOVE NYC!! you all rule out there and yes.. ENABLE IT!
Hi,
I just bought my Sony Xperia Z1 two days ago and everything's been great. I love it! Feels great to hold, pictures are great when shot in manual mode, looks great, etc. But, while taking pictures in my room, I noticed a white line on the edge of the screen right next to the volume rocker. I thought it was the picture but it turns out that it wasn't. This definitely was not here when I first turned the phone on so now I'm scared that the line is actually a crack and may worsen over time. And no, it's never been bumped into anything.
Well sorry for it happened same with me and I got my phone replaced thanks to ADP and it looks the same phone I sent for replacement...

Ohh. I should probably go to Sony before it gets worse.
Now i am using 757 but i saw someones using 761.
What improvements got 761 compared to 757?
What improvement you get from a 1.81mb of difference. What 1.81MB of upgrade can do? Nothing, maybe just a speaker bug fix.

I updated OTA to 761, but I couldn't say exactly what it really does, compared to 757.

Well it did something anyway.
I had problems with lots of random reboots on .757 but .761 only suffered from one reboot while using mxplayer this morning.
So only one reboot on 14 days instead of one or two every day. So something has surley changed for the better.
Still touchscreen issues sometimes, just turn screen off and on and it works again.

Is there any battery improvements? This is the most important part y'know.
No battery improvements for me. I have an option to upgrade to .761 by PCC (LB, Orange Poland) but I still prefer to use Custom Roms like Evo ora Aur

You know what, I got another reboot tonight when browsing my movies!!!
It worked perfectly for two weeks and then it started with the silly reboots again.
I did not have that on 4.3 though. Must be a rogue app now that is ****ing up everything. I uninstalled all I could think if before this reboot though Surley kit kat issues since jelly bean did not give me these problems.

Same here for me, I flashed my phone like crazy with several different custom ROMs and stock. But I get random reboots each day no matter what App I am using and what ROM I am on. Sometime if I have to capture important moment of life in picture, but this phone ends up embarrassing me and Sony. Seriously disappointed with this phone.

Ye, I'm not impressed with the phone. But I got my money back actually and got to keep the phone. So atm I don't really care. I'll buy the oneplus one when I get the invite.
But did you try 136 4.3? That one worked with no reboot's for me.
I actually think it is the "movie" app that might cause my reboots now since that recently got updated. And I didn't have a single reboot for two weeks before that.
We must have something in our hardware that fails abit with kk or something.
