[Q] Firmware Customization - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So a few weeks back, I've sent my Xperia Z1 for repair. Now after 4 1/2 weeks, it returned to me. However I noticed something weird. My phone had a scratch on the front. However the "repaired" phone didn't have any scratch. I just assume that they replaced the shatter-proof sheet. But I decided to check the Customization number. I've bookmarked my old Customization number using this website. Here's what I found when I compared both.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Noticed how the're both different. So I checked this thread and I found this.
My question is. Does this mean that that's not my original phone and it has been swapped? Are they allowed to swap phones without telling me? I mean they took 4 1/2 months to "repair" it and when I got it back, I found videos that can be found on display phones. So yeah. I think I got a display phone.

Possible, but changing customization is as easy as flashing an FTF.
Of course.
If you dig deep enough your phone filesystem then you'll find those demo videos on every single Z1. Don't worry

1. Why in the picture 3(shows after picture number 1 and number 2), It just shows me a blank screen for about 10-15 secs?
2. it also has annoying taskbar appear right after the picture number 3, why?
FYI, I has 75% Program Free, 45% Storage Free and 25% Storage Card Free
And I also have this keyboard annoying problem. By the first time, the 'ok' button is not really responsive.
Then the 'Bckspc' button and now the left side of 'Space' Button not responsive at all.
Would Sony Ericsson cover my X1 for this failure? I still have 2 week waranty.
FYI, I really take care this X1. No scratch or anything. I always carry this X1 with pouch that has no magnet.

Should i flash to stock and go to t mobile?
Go back to stock and test the s pen again. Make a backup of your ROM.
If it's the same in Stock, then you need to get the phone replaced.
I had the same issue when i got the phone. I had to have it returned for a brand new one due to this. Sometimes the screens pressure sense fails. On my replacement, there were points where i would pull out pen and try to screen shot and the screen would flash as if capturing a screenshot and then no options provided. I thought i was going to have to return another one but then the new update fixed the issue. I dont know why lol. But my second device seems to be working right now. Call tmo and tell them whats going on. If its within the 14 days, request a brand new one.

Nexus 6 display after 3 days

So I got my nexus 6 this week, everything is running fine & smooth as expected from N6.
After 3 days of normal usage suddenly a vertical line appeared on the screen and it appears every where while browsing, app drawer etc.
I was hoping it is a software issue I tried factory reset but unfortunately it seems that it is hardware issue.
Anyone has any idea on how to fix this? or my nexus 6 display is just defective?

It sounds like it's hardware related. Have it ever went away then came back later? Possibility in a different location? Where was it purchased?

Get it replaced.
Defect. Send it back in for a replacement

Ugh, that sucks. Sorry man. Definitely sounds like a hardware problem.
Where did you order from? I don't know about Motorola, but Google has been pretty good in the past as far as sending advance replacements.

[Q]pil-modem_fw: why won't it leave me alone?

I started noticing extreme battery drain around the time I began fooling around with the lollipop rom builds that began popping up in the forums last month, so I started trying to look into it. This is what I found: (this isn't a good example because of a short timeframe, but at times it's been up to 30k wakelocks over 6 hours)

I've tried searching Google and of the 2 posts that even come close, I can't make sense of it.
My phone is currently disconnected and has been for some time, so I can't tell if it's searching for service, even though I keep it in airplane mode, with Wi-Fi on only when I need it, turned off background data, even froze the phone app. Still no luck. Same thing when I switched back to cm11.
Is there anyone or there who knows what this is about and what I can do about it?
***ANY and ALL info is GREATLY appreciated***

If you flash the stock 4.4.4 firmware for your device with fastboot/mfastboot it will likely be fixed.
Why you're getting this.... I don't know. Can't find anything on it either.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't think is fake.. My phone looks same
Like the amaunt of screws how much of them is there
Looking at my phone two of the screws on my phone are at a different place then the ones in your image. The left one on top is slightly deeper than the one in the image. The one near the NFC contact or whatever is it is on the left sight is not down there on my phone, it's right beside the battery left.
But does that mean it's fake? I really don't know. Should have asked for the serial number instead
I have IMEI but they could easy find one print itt out and stick it ok
Thats why i censored it
i was not talking about the IMEI but if you have the IMEI number check that
It turns out its real but it is i9300 not i9305
