I used application Screen Adjuster (free from playstore) and tried these settings and autobrightness and i think, that viewing angles are now a lot better.

No need gimp the screen even more.

Nothing wrong with viewing angles imo. Everything is legible, it's just a colour shift. Infact I have examined numerous phones and they all shift when tilted (part from the ips like iPhone and HTC one), so it's not really a major issue.

It may just be me, but it seems like the quality of images and the color had taken a crap turn on 4.2. Pictures aren't as crisp and clear anymore, wtf.

I think perhaps some of the wallpapers are a bit more lossy/noisy, but other than that it looks fine to me ...

And that's what I mean, mine now looks like there is more noise, before I updated I didn't have this issue.

OK after doing a little net viewing I started to notice that the bad image quality is really just on Facebook when using chrome browser, otherwise every other site is just fine including video, however wallpapers do seem to have way to much noise in then.

Update completely ruined image quality. Gray wallpapers have HORRIBLE dithering (I think that's what it's called..)
Can't even use Gray gradients anymore. I'm pissed.

Pictures on 4.2 are definitely better for me, better contrast and more saturated colors.

i'm with the op here. my first reaction when the installation was finished when seeing the standard 4.1 background was that it looks really really compressed with a lot of artefacts in the dark parts. but when looking at hi-def pictures in chrome it looks fine. I think they put the standard backgrounds in low quality by mistake.
I have an optimus 4x(just like all of us):screwy:, and the lock/unlock/power button is a bit awkward:banghead:...
All of the unlock apps present in market require pressing the power button.
Can any one developed an app/mod that will wake the phone without the use of power button!?
I myself would like try but don't know first thing about Android development. So if u lazy then please guide me in which direction to go

If you use holo locker from the market you can use the volume button to wake the screen. If that's any good?

I know this is not your inteded answer, but would't the phone be unlocked all the time? I mean, those capacitive buttons are easily pressed, even through pockets. Plus, you'd need to power them all the time which would cause some battery drain.
On the old HTC Desire S we had "Sweep2Wake" - but that requires kernel modifications AFAIK. Maybe something for the future as it was quite a nice feature, and I don't like using physical buttons to wake my phone as it wears them out too quickly.
How about smart screen off pro from play store? It uses the proximity sensors and/or the light sensors to wake up your phone by put them out of the pocket or anything else...
Great app that I used by my self...

Hello.
You can try also "Auto Screen On" from Google Play. It works with the frontal sensor; it's perfect to have your phone turned on when getting out from your pocket. After trying similar apps, I prefer this
When I'm recording some fairly high speed 1080 video on my projector screen (say if I record a replay from my PS3 game F1 2012) the Sony Z camera Zoom seems to focus, refocus, focus, refocus all the bl00dy time. As a result the video ends up either a) blurry, or b) is filled with stutter/juddering crap...
Is there any way to fix this?????????????
I had it on 434 firmware, and still exists on the 253..
Change the focus mode ?

I wonder why the Sony Z needs the room well lit? My Projector is ultra bright and I'm close to the screen.
I changed the focus mode from face detect to fixed point and still does it..
None of my previous phones (HTC One X, iPhone 4S, SGS3, or Razr HD have done this.. Seems very strange IMO.
I'll post up a video on youtube tonight to demonstrate what is happening

Like the title says.. Do you think that the xperia Z1 interface will come on the Z with the 4.3 update?
I like the z1 interface a lot more than the Z one.. and I really hope that they will put it on the Z also..
I think yes. Maybe not all but I hope the most. It look really nice, I agree with you:good:
never held a Z1 in my hands - what's the difference? I don't see anything different when watching comparing videos on youtube - except for the mode menu in the camera app.

just looked at some screenshots. looks pretty neat! but unfortunately, I'm way too lazy for stuff like this. that's also why I've waited until a one-click root-tool was available for the Xperia Z. : D
Pff.. is more pure.. more minimalistic.. it fits more with the phone design..
I really like it more.. and I hope they won't act crazy and leave the Z as it is.. Srlsy that won't be fair
Z1 interface:
-the app windows are more clean
-the settings menu is white and nice
-you can add other shortcuts to notifacation bar.. like brightness

The difference is big between the two devices, Z1 has a better feel, more robust, better interface. Z looks cheap now that I compared both. Really, completely different smartphone.

For deodexed roms yes but for the stock odexed roms I never have seen.

i really don't understand why nearly everybody is so keen for the z1 ui. watched a couple of youtube-vids, screenshots, threads...
i think there's nothing special with this ui, and no big deal compared to the "original" z ui. compared to e.g. miui i even think z1 ui is less attractive.
or am i missing something brilliant within this ui
It's new and most people, me included like adding new things to their device. It's some kind of thrill for me.

It's much cleaner.. and I played with a z1 and it's much more responsive.. maybe cause of CPU also.. but i like the cleaner look and the white settings menu
I'm wondering if an app like the "camera+" (iPhone) could be port to Android?
I tried a similar app which is available for Android called "Camera Awesome". But the feature I'm looking for didn't work for me.
I want to separate the exposure and focus when I take a picture.
Is there any way to get this to work? Or an alternative, perhaps?

Can someone help me, please..

Try Camera FV-5, if not working you can buy iphone. [emoji12]
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
I already use the camera FV-5. But it's not the same. I don't want an iPhone.
Is there no way to make an app such like the camera+ ?
I'm not good at programming but could make the design for the app
