and Z3
Text from Xperiablog:
Sony Mobile may have just certified Android 5.1 Lollipop for the Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact judging by new listings. Firmware build 23.2.A.0.278 has been certified by the PTCRB for the Xperia Z3 (D6653) and Xperia Z3 Compact (D5833). Given the move from build format ‘23.0’ for Android 4.4.4 KitKat to ‘23.1’ for Android 5.0.2 Lollipop, there is a strong likelihood that ‘23.2’ will be Android 5.1 Lollipop.

What do you think guys? A bugless update for 5.0.2? or Android 5.1?

Remember, leave it as it is, A rumor, dont get your hopes up!!
(but lets be honest, we may at least, get xperia z treatment since z3 series are one of the most selling series of Sony Xperia times!)

It's supposed to be 5.1 because usually a change in the build number in that way means an OS version upgrade

They have edited the story and it looks like it may be a false alarm. though looking at the listing they link there is no detection of 5.1 so maybe the key stayed the same ... I live in a very optimistic world

Thanks

Yes, it's the same. The L36x codename was used when rumours of this phone started to surface. It was later changed to C6603/C6602/SO-02E during the official announcement. So they all have the same dimensions.
AFAIK it is the same. I think it's the japanese version, it has IR blaster on the back - and that's probably the only difference ( or a prototype coding ) Wouldn't expect the body to differ - but doesn't hurt to ask the seller.
Sony Logo Placement
I think Xperia Z SO-02E has SONY logo at bottom.
and international version C6603 as logo at top.
Below is a image of SO-02E.

RE: LCD/digitizer Xperia Z Compatibility
Are most of the parts the same? I mean I have a Xperia X C6616 and needing to replace the LCD/digitizer. I'm just wondering if the other LCDs/digitizer from different model of Xperia Z are compatible to each other or are they all the same? Can someone clarify this.....
Thanks.
Xperia Body types
Hi guys
This may seem like a stupid question. I have recently got into the business of repairing phone screens.
I want to fix a Sony Xperia Z screen, however I do not know how to tell what body type it is (l36h, ect).
I'd like to know how do I tell which is which. I want to order parts but I want to be sure that I am buying the right one.
Please help.
Thanks
Modise
Hi Modise,
In case the display and the digitizer work then you can get the model number from the service menu:
Start dialer and press *#*#service#*#*
link
In case you cannot use service menu then try to use flashtool, it displays the phone type it is connected to.

Japan Xperia Z hole next to camera

in the japanese version of the Xperia Z there seems to be a somehting next to the camera lens, perhaps a hole is not the right description, but the "hole" looks similar to the proximity sensors on the front of the phone.
does anyone know what this is for? it doesn't seem to be in the international version of the XZ

god i wish the international versions had an IR blaster
Likewise
But we'll see what the ' Sony One' smartphone brings

The International ZL has the IR sensor.. but Z doesn't..
Good to see that Xperia Z (japan) has IR sensor.. though it's not something which we use everyday..
I've read that ZL has default apps which uses infrared which can be used as universal remote...
Just told nonsense.
Well i bought the NTTDocomo version of the Xperia Z..
1. Screen black is almost same as my brothers Xperia Z from uk BUT whites in NTT Z is much better form the uk one.
2. The IR is only to transfer files and there is no app or any endication in the menu that u can use it to control ur tv etc, i tried and installed an app from google play but failed ... Maybe in coming update they will add it ? dono !!
Nttdocomo xs
Here is a photo
Xperia Z NTTD.
Japanese people have been using infrared to send small data such as contacts for such a long time and is always most popular way. That's why you will see most of japanese phones have IR. HTC Butterfly (Droid DNA) in Japan also has IR.

First: posting questions in general section is against rules.
Second: those effects are only available at the rear camera

Is there a way to install a different camera app that has the negative effect? Im not rooted, as i just bought my xperia z and i dont want to loose the warranty yet..

There are dozens of camera apps in the play store and many of them have negative filter.

[Q] Style Cover for Z3C

Really interested in this lovely phone and looking to finally replace my GSII which I've been owning for the past three years. Does anyone know whether a similar style cover SCR24 announced for Z3 will be available for Z3C at all? That cover looks very neat.

Best thing would be to contact Sony directly, the phones have been officially announced yesterday, so I doubt anyone would be able to answer your question right now.
Yes. The Style-Up Cover SCR26 is for Z3 Compact

Actually I had seen that. I was skeptical about it as sonymobile website does not mention it at all while SCR24 is mentioned specifically for Z3.

I don't think the SCR26 is fake. Because there is another site too, it's called Netshop and is a Norwegian site, I actually have ordered from there earlier.
But only time will see if the cover for Z3C is real

Yes, I believe the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact will have a similar "Style Cover" case like the one already announced for the bigger Z3.
It makes an appearance in one of the Xperia promotional videos from Sony
