Hello,
I have a idea based on Iphone Beer and G sensor.
It should look very good, if somebody will create funny application, where you have a level of beer on your display and you can rotate display and level is still the same (using G sensor). For more exciting feeling can good programmer use builtin camera and blend background image with beer. Then it can look like glass of beer. The similar idea is with aquarium. You can have aquarium on display with floating aquarium fish and behind the aquarium you can see real background. is here anybody, who will create funny applications like this ?

i used to run static wallpapers but i recently discovered a metal slug lwp. this thing is awesome and it doesnt really bog down scrolling like others..
Been using the silhouette wallpaper for a while now. A Street Fighter based LWP would be great though.
Starfield.
Nexus Revamped Pro.
Used to be Nexus Mod 2.0 but the dev hasn't updated for FroYo yet.
I use static walls these days. I don't like the little bit of slowness caused by live wallpapers and, to be honest, I don't really see the point anyway.
logcat and pixle zombies
my favourite is definetly pixel zombies, love when i am showing someone the phone and can say "theres a war going on in the backround"
worth the $0.99 if you ask me
The Samsung ones are pretty hot. I've previously used Grass, Green, and Winter Flock as well as trying out the Mario one.
starfield and galactic core are awesome. black just looks so nice on amoled.
I wish the Grass one didn't use a lot of CPU rendering the grass, I like the day/night effect it has.
I used a Fireworks one over the last weekend, got a lot of laughs when people saw me using my phone with it.
The Aquarium one is nice to show off, but slows things down pretty bad.
Can some tell me if this is just me.im coming a rzr hd and the video quality is impressive now i have the note n7000. 8 have notice that on wallpapers and videos when it shows something in black it cant show itgood instead its an ugly black i see videos and everything that is black it show so nasty black like carbon black.what can i do t have a pretty black display
Did you mean something like black pixels or big black spots on the videos. This is black clipping, know bug on every Note. We dont know if its hard or software related problem, but samsung said they are working for fix this bug. Good luck! Sorry my bad english
Hello,
As i am today a not very-pleased s3 owner, i decided that i will give Sony a try for the first time. After looking much at especially the V and the Z, i`ve decided that the Z will be the phone i will enough pleased with.
Anyway, i habe been reeding alot about this phone the last days, and i keep reading that the screen is not "good" enough, and that is something that concerns me.
So i am asking YOU GUYS that are a lucky owner of the Xperia Z; How does the screen feel like? Is it relly THAT bad as people is talking about? I really want this phone. I love sonys interface and water+dust proof is a must for me these days.
I hope someone can give me a good answer.
Appreciated !
Honestly go out and check it out for yourself.
Everyone will and can have their own opinion, but in the end it is your choice.
I for one like it

Thanks for responding!
I would love to check it out, but here in Norway we dont get it before 6-10Mars. I went to the store today to check out the display on the Xperia V, and i gotta say i liked it alot more than my Amoled S3.
AW: So is the screen THAT bad?
Screen is just fine. Lots of exageration.
The vieweing angles are sub-premium, this is true, but perfectly ok. First its only the colours which wash out a bit, its not like you wouldnt see anything anymore plus, to be honest, how often and for jow long do you look at your phone flat and sideways...?
I like the screen a lot. Nice colours to look at, insane resolution and pixel density , everything is so damn crisp and clear. I mean hello, its a flaghship after all, they dont dare to put utter bull**** in it. As I said, lots of exaggeration.
TFT with high resolution. Colors are bad.
Regards
Yesterday I tested 3 Xperia Z with bright pixel. But finally got one that has none.

Depends on your definition of good colors.
When looking at photos vs one x without BE turned on colors are pretty close to the real thing including vibrancy and saturation. Now if you are the kind of person that likes unhealthy yellow skin tones, better than real life colors than yeah colors are no good. When people say it looks washed out they actually mean it is not punchy the truth is that when you look at the real world vs s3 and one x the real world seems to be washed out
Stop this BS already... screen is very good.
The only "problem" with it is colour saturation in UI. When BE2 kicks in, and you're on 60%+ brightness, colours and brightness are amazing. And since BE2 doesn't change the screen's physical properties - it means that the screen itself is perfectly fine. The only thing you can be unhappy with is UI's default saturation values, which are quite low, probably to make the difference between media and UI very noticable.
Also, it's true - "washed out" colours are actually a lot closer to natural colours. If you want very saturated colours all the time - you might not be satisfied. If you want completely oversaturated colours - go for AMOLED, they're amazing in producing rich, highly saturated colours.
For me, coming straight from an S3 to this, it really does look washed out, no mater how you look at it.
However, I think that this is because the S3 had very over saturated colours. If you do decide to go for the XZ, you'll be disappointed at first, but it feels much more premium and you'll start to realise that the S3 seemed like it was in Shop Display Mode all the time!
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but don't be downhearted if you go for it and you're initially unhappy with the screen.
EDIT:
Which is basically what everyone else has already said here.
Maybe Sony should have added a samsung mode where it sets the saturation up to 120%, the contrast to .800 and maximum brightness to 50% so you can't see anything when outdoors.
I think you'll be happy with the screen if you upgraded from other xperia family phones. But if you will compare it side by side with other 1080 LCD phones like htc butterfly, hell even with HTC One X which has 720P and a year older, Z can't match overall display quality. Trust your eyes. To see is to believe.

Got this yesterday and the screen is better than One x and nexus 4 except viewing angles.
The phone is a little laggier than Nexus 4 but faster.
Overall im very impressed.

All Sony screens are very good from my past experience, people are just used to over saturated colors that other companies do to their phones. Also, you eyes will strain much less when you look at Sony screens for extended period of times.
Also, I don't understand what's with the ruckus of angle viewing, seriously, how many of you out there actively view the screen from a angle? its just retarded to compare that, it's not even a point.

I personally really like the screen. I hated the screen on the s3 and thought the colours looked unnatural and oversaturated. With the XZ, while it may be 'washed out' to some, I actually find the colours, contrast, etc. quite nice to look at and natural. The s3 and the like hurt my eyes. Plus viewing angles aren't half as bad as I expected them to be given all the hysteria regarding them prior to release.
I posted this in the other thread "clearing up the....."
"I have now spent 48 hours with my XZ in the UK. I really like the display. It is sharp, vibrant and realistic in terms of colour and saturation. I could not get on with the amoled display of the HTC desire and the samsung galaxy. Too unrealistic imho. The bravia engine takes it to another level for movies and pictures: It will impress your friends!
I was hesitating with the iminent release of the HTC one. I have absolutley no regrets. It is a beautiful phone and a beautiful display."
well if the only downside is "bad view angles" and "low sturation" its great display because
1. i look my fone from front not side
2. i dont like too saturated colours (red must be red not burning red example)
3. resolution n ppi is high enough to make clear and nice pic
here is some screen comparisons
vs iphone 5

its in german so you might wanna turn translation on
and here is some first impressions & talk about the screen

Overall it looks like a pretty good screen, if you dont care about viewing angles that much you will like it
