My rear camera broken i want to replace it New one. Looking at ebay i see z5 rear camera hardware same connection with z3c camera. Is that possible replacement anybody idea?
I don't think it can be done but in fact they looks quite the same. You can replace Z3 <--> Z3c and Z1 <--> Z1c but I don't think it gonna work after replacing across different models.

maybe modified rom and install z5 cam app it can possible. even camera app upgrade possible for z3 we sure about that
I think even if connector is the same phone must have dedicated driver to work with peripherals. So firs thing is driver IC on board and then software driver.

It's quite interesting. When someone brings me Z5/Z5c for repair I'll try to check it.
Do it!
Tell us if it works.
any good news？
Still no damaged Z5
@up
I'm for your service! Give me Z5C and I will damage it as much as you want! But is it even driver possible?
Any news?
Thanks!

hi folks,
i want to change my htc one, i was first thinking of m8 or z2, but when i see the price, i am not that fast...
so i had a look to the z1 compact, wich seems quite nice, and i like what sony is doing these days.
first question i had in mind: is it possible to use the external microphone you can see in z2 accessories, and it seems that the answer is no, due to the 5 pin jack, bummer
now the other question, can you run lifelog on z1 ? i guess it should n be a probleme, if somebody can confirm, would be great.
i ve read here and there that the z1 camera was suffering of quality picture issues, did you guys got an update to fix that (knowing it s same camera than z2 )
Also on z2 they talk about steady motion for recording video, i guess it s only software stuff, is it implemented on the z1 ?
Thx for your replies
Good question about the mic, it has the same plug as my NC headphones I use
http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/03/06/sony-stm10-stereo-microphone-priced-to-launch-in-early-april/
and those work on my Z1, not sure if the mic will work, I feel maybe the software isn't in the Z1 for it to work? perhaps once the Z2 comes out and the mic, sony will update z1 and the mic will work, why wouldn't they, would still permit z1 users to buy it and have it.

the issue about the external mic is hardware related and it will NEVER work on Z1
any ideas about the other points i ve mentioned?

I didn't think the z3 tablet compact had wireless charging capability anyways?

Hey guys. My first review here but I think this really need to be addressed.
On my Z2, music was great till I had a note 4, root it and installed viper4android. So I managed to root my Z2 and install fauxsound and sold of my note 4 just cause it made the volume louder and its easy to drive my senheisser.
Then I got the Z3 and managed to install viper4android just to make it enough gain to drive my sennheiser. Sound was nearly perfect.
However, Z3+ seems has louder volume output then its predecessors. Is it my ears or is it louder now?
Still waiting for root just to install viper4android. Have a spare S6 Edge and with viper4android installed, I still think S6 Edge sound output is superior.
What do you guys think?

The whole sound output on the Z3+ is refined as seen here. There are some real nice additions in the Z3+ compared to earlier models. I hear a difference on my Z2,Z3+ but no idea how it was on Z3
Biggest change is what i feel from my old Z2 is Size.... Z3+ is really... comfortable to handle with such impressive design. also there are 35 Sensors while in Z2 it was 18 Sensors...i don't know more sensor is good or bad...

Obviously basic sensors like gyroscope,magnetometer,pressure sensor,etc. Z cpu shows 35 sensor count. Lol i think this phone is having highest no. Of peripherals installed.
Why have Sony gone backwards with the z3+ front speakers?. The z3 was much louder.
Any fix for this guys?

Not much we could do - I think. Z3 speakers are fully exposed. Z3+ is more like Z2 in terms of loudness.

I'm starting to think there was no point in the z3+, the z3 is a better phone imho. Should have just waited for the z5! Creedy Sony!?

Z5 has the same speaker placement as the Z3+. It could still be louder, but we'll have to wait and see!
Z5 Speakers are better than Z3+.. But Z3 speakers still the best
Hi guys,
My Z1 camera suddenly died and I'm at the point which I have to decide which one to buy. I have an option to take very cheaply Z3 camera which seems to be identical as Z1 - so the question is: is it interchangeable between Z1/Z3?
I don't want to brick my device
TIA
Afaik , the Z1 and the z3 have different sensors. So i don't think thats going to work.
Z3 camera will work on Z1
Sorry for the bad english
Z3 camera will work on Z1
But Z1 camera will not work on Z3
If u port Z1 camera app to Z3 it will also work on Z3 also
I m using Xperia Z1 One week ago i changed my camera with Xperia Z3+ and picture and video look awesome
But Z3+ camera is slimer than Z1 but there is no problems with that it will work great and it is better in low light also.

That's what I heard, Z1/Z2/Z3 use the same i2c bus/commands and connector. Wasn't sure if kernel or camera apk itself has some white/blacklist. Well, I'm waiting for my delivery and would try it.
BTW: my camera was signed as G3 which I suppose came from Z2.
So, FYI -> Z3 cam in Z1 works flawlessly, no problems at all.
