Hi all,
Though i'm happy with my z i got a small problem.
The display is flickering constantly, i read in several Forums about this should be an Software issue with Sonys 4.2.2
So i went back to 4.1.2 but i still noticed a flickering on the display, and in any other Rom i tried.
Question is: hardware or software fault?

Wait until the New bugfixes are out it could be a bug within the kernel that Sony have finally found but I'm no expert I've just picked up info on here across multiple devices due to my love for New tech

Alnikkis kernel fixed the flickering for me.
So it should be fixed on new firmware hopefully permanently.

I did this to remove flickering.
1. Reseted the device.
2.Repair Installed the software Via SUS.
Fresh installed the apps after reset and the flickering was gone.
(FYI my device is Stock JB ROM 4.2.2 V .244)

Thanks but i managed to get the flickering away.
It seems like a kernel fault, and should be fixable.
I also contacted sony support and pm'ed mods becoz of this issue, hoping they will finally fix it..

Ahh~! I was really becoming to get annoyed by this and believed it's a software issue rather than hardware faulty, so I wanted to check if anyone else is experiencing this. I'm glad they're going to fix it.

this is hardware issue with the pcb of xperia z and there is no pcb schematics available, so search for the hardware solution, may be it is a small capacitor on board.

Hi. I haven't even downloaded 4.3 yet, but I found out that 4.4 is going to have an epic feature: the ability to hide the home-bar and swipe it in when you need it! Finally you're able to use the 5" screen fully in all apps!
Does anyone know when we can expect this update?

We have no idea about 4.4 yet. As you said, 4.3 is not yet been made available in all regions much less 4.4.
We know it's coming, I bet somewhere in the first quarter of 2014 and this all depends on a possible new flagship that Sony will reveal at MWC which may put the Xperia Z to the third tier behind Z1 and the new one.
And that feature sure exists on 4.4 but apps must be programmed to get use of it. I have a Nexus 7 with 4.4 and not many apps support the Immersive Experience yet.
Hope I helped!
Yes!, it is coming!, but i don't know when
I think it is a little too soon to start opening threads like this.

Dude, we JUST got 4.3.
One thing to take away from getting 4.2.2, 4.3 is: We never know before the last minute. There is NEVER a release date set months ahead.
We just have to wait.
being enjoying my full 5" screen for a while using LMT Launcher; swype up for back, home, etc.
no need for on screen buttons =]
i want 4.4 because of the new caching system which is noticeably faster.
this 4.3 is great though as usual from sony!

You should ask in Sony's support forums, maybe you are lucky and they won't ban you.

Give it a try to CM or AOSP 4.4.2 you will have a more optimized and faster Android, and you will enjoy the new features.
I recommend you Mokee ROM with Meaw Kernel.
You will find the threads in Original Android Development section

Simple...when other manufacturers release the 4.4...wait 6-8months then we can have our kitkat for XZ

Great I hope a few bug (memory leak and graphic flicker bug)
I hope Location-based WiFi bug is fixed in this update. For me doesn't work properly.

Then they decide to suddenly remove it then shortly after replace it and we don't actually get the update until late July thus far I still haven't received 295 and February's almost over.
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
I also had that Customization number but couldn't wait so I flashed rooted .295. Didn't regret.
So maybe that's why some people didn't get the update? They've stopped the update? Is it possible?

No, this update is a bug fixing one (e.g charger bug, video recording bug of XV)

Slight Off Topic
how come Xperia TX never showed up in PTCRB certification? until now theres no 9.2.A.0.295. but it is released already.
On Topic
This update should fix all kinds of bugs that are obviously present in 9.2.A.0.295
-Volume(not showing and not changing the volume)
-Movies App(Blue Flickering Bug, when Show Recent video is turned on)
-SD Card(Sometimes Walkman and Movies App, can't read any files on SD card)
-100% Charge(Full Charge bug)
-and all the bugs we have or not have encountered, and hopefully they will further improve the software.
Is anyone not bothered by the stupidest bug I have seen in an Android release (No offence to Sony, but its actually pretty stupid)? The installation progress bar which is way out of place. How could they not see or fix this? I'm sure its a simple fix.
Little things like this do bother me.

I know what you're feeling, but this happens because they were focused on fixing worse bugs (the charging one that reboots the system, is incredible and not fixed yet)

Yeah I know! But what I meant was this is a simple enough fix
But yeah... there are bigger issues that actually affect the functionality of the phone.
Looks like 9.2.a.1.199 has also been certified for TL...

You can use "Fix Sony 4.3 bugs" module for Xposed Framework for fixing it.

Hi everyone..
I noticed that my Xperia V occasionally does not turn of the screen when I press the power button. Even if I do so repeatedly..
Only solution is either to wait some minutes or to remove the battery.
By the way, if the error appears while charging and I plug out the usb cable, the screen turns on and everything works fine.
Running stock 4.3, but I doubt that this problem is related to that, as I've already been running 4.3 for several weeks before the problem appeared the first time..
Any help or hints are greatly appreciated.. Thanks in advance!

Okay, so it is software and not hardware related?

Had the same experience some days ago.. Looks like a kernel issue. ^^
By the way, these issues also started for me some weeks after upgrading to .199.... Hm.

Right after I updated my Z1 (via OTA) to latest KitKat 4.4.2 ,, I started to notice a bug with ringing.
at the times the volume will be on the level that I have set and sometimes it will just ring on the lowest possible level of sound (despite the fact that the ringtone volume is set to maximum)
Is there a solution to fix this ?
Thanks

The sound level on Xperia Z1 is more then enough for me, I do not need to boost it, I just want it to work, meaning I wan't the ringtone level set by me to stay how I set it up,, it is changing the level randomly during the day and this is happening only since I updated to 4.4.2.

I have experienced this bug also, while Talkback is enabled.
Even if all volumes are turned full up, the level still seems to have a mind of its own...
