Do any XZ1C owners also find the vibration of the XZ1C to be quite odd?
I was worried that it might be a hw problem with my unit, but then I went and checked the vibration on a demo unit in store, and found that it was the same.
It sounds sort of high pitched, kind of like a dentist drill, and you can actually hear the progression of the vibrator rpm rapidly increasing initially, which is really funky.
It feels nothing like all the previous phones I've owned (which includes all Sony compacts except for the X compact, so it's definitely not a "Sony signature" so to speak).
I have since gotten used to it, it was very jarring for the first few days, but am still curious if others felt the same... or perhaps it's just erratic behavior of my particular unit (and the store demo unit too, what a coincidence).

Yes, the vibration seemed odd and very strong to me. Z3c vibration is like 3 times weaker and like it more.

It is different from phones I had before, but not necessarily weird.
It takes longer to ramp up but goes really high, compared to my S5 for example.
Mine vibrates weird too.. I had to disable vibration on my keyboard. It feels really strange when I start typing long sentences.
my z1c had it, i did just turn the typevibration of
The vibration is really weird indeed. More importantly, it's slow to start; so it doesn't really work for 'vibrate on tap' functionality of the keyboard. So unfortunately I had to turn the option off as well.

That does actually work for me.
Yeah its slow to ramp up, but when it does, my god does it vibrate. I type using swipe, but at the odd times that I tap to type, it really does feel weird. I don't mind it though.
I like it. It revs up higher and higher when taps are closer together. It's a nice break from the usual. It reminds me a bit of a sportsbike engine. High strung.
Yes but I already knew about it before purchasing it, from online reviews.
But I found out my personal solution: manually minimize timing's vibration.
In SwiftKey settings / typing / sound and vibration / keypress vibration : i set it on 40 ms.
I think it's quirky. Sounds like a revving engine.

I've done this too but the problem is, sometimes the phone lags and the vibration comes all at once and the phone goes nuts lol.

I never experienced lags in this little beast of xperia...
I'm using 22ms vibraton on SwiftKey. Barely noticeable at keypress: perfect for me.

Thanks for this thread, I thought I was going insane.
Here's my case, my XZ1 compact black bought in Denmark have that strange revving vibration, customisation 1310-7097. But... My wife's XZ1c silver from Austria, 1310-9122 cust. vibrates just the old way, in short bursts.
I'm closer to think that it's a firmware related phenomenon than a hardware difference. Meaning, there must be some service command to execute to set the vibrations types. Now, it would be great if some Xperia expert would read this and tell us that secret code.
Hi everyone, I know this is an old thread but this might help.
I have an XZ3 and solved the weird vibration problem disabling the Dynamic Vibration option (Settings > Sound)

Im sure a fair number of you will have experienced the same thing where you press a key once and you get like 3 of that letter and sometimes for me the Fn key doesnt work too well either
i've tried like swirling the keys around to move dust etc but it didnt help
maybe i should just send it back? becuase its really annoying
I also have this problem sometimes. Thought it might be a software problem or so, but maybe you are right and particles are collecting there.
Did someone try that on X1?
Well, if there was such a solution I wouldn't have to send my X1 to the service centre. And just delaying it as much as possible, but given that my warranty ends next week, I'd probably have to go down soon. And anyway, it's not just repeats that I'm facing. Sometimes it's the other way round, as in the keyboard not responding unless I press the key down real hard.

just tried, and seems to work! thanks
settings-personal-buttons-up/down control
delay before first repeat set to long
repeat rate 3 from fast
works good!
I'd say it works about 80-90%. It does save the X1 from the trash piles, so kudos to the friendly guy who dug up the solution, and no kudos to SE and/or MS who can't think of fine-tuning the keyboard settings before they ship a product that was $800-900 unlocked at launch.
Caveat and an inappropriate rant: I remember doing so much research, and everyone across so many different forums said a hardware keyboard is the way to go if you do a lot of texting. Not true. I find that hardware keyboards require a lot of efforts to press compared to a virtual keyboard, even worse if it's not spaciously laid out, and even worse if, unlike the X1, the positioning of the keys relative to each other is off.
Truth is I type even faster on an iPhone/ipod touch than an X1, without feeling like an RSI is coming on, and it's not because of predictive text entry. It's because my thumbs can use a lot less force on the keys. I believe most people still press way too hard on a touch screen trying to be control freaks.
So the keyboard may be 80-90% improved, but I've got my budget ready for an iPhone. And no more listening, no more being open to suggestions!

Well, I don't want to live without h/w keyboard anymore. And I did a fast typing challenge against an iPhone and won. The guy who wrote on that iPhone was a real freak, had an iPhone since it came out and types really fast...but I love the h/w keyboard on the xperia. If it would not have this double-letter error I would love it even more...Now I'm going to fix it with the solution mentioned above. Thanks!
I just want to add one thing...
The reason I say the fix is 80-90%, is because I think CPU speed and/or power settings might contribute somewhat to the keyboard issue. Once last week, I had the phone plugged into AC, and the keyboard suddenly became free of issues, and responded properly to my typical typing efforts.
Using nueCPL-ClockSpeed v1.3 in an unscientific test, the keyboard produces more mistakes on a lower speed (384MHz), but its Max Performance setting didn't exactly reproduce the AC power remedy.
This is not a very stringent observation at all, but since I am stuck with the X1 for a while, I'll keep on trying I'm betting that the next iPhone will be a significant update, so I have to hold off the purchase for now... and kiss NRGZ28's toes for his rom's.

Please mention all the common issues found in this device (both Hardware and Software level)
So far I have gathered one issue mainly
- The USB/SD Card flap gets loosen or does not properly close.
Some units may have excessive gap between the glass and the frame, either top or bottom.

Ive got two things where im not sure if that are real Problems or just a question of settings.
First one is that voice from the other part is not really loud, even on the highest setting, during a phone call.
The other one is the battery time. I dont get such high results like 2 days from the tests on different websites. I only got one day with moderate usage.

I have returned mine to o2 within the initial cooling off period, there's too many problems to risk sorry. I loved the spec and design too
Did you experience any problems or did you just bottle it? I've had mine for a week or so with no problems at all.

I'd assume that more than 90% of units have no major issues. The misleading thing is that, in communities like these, people with faulty units are far more represented than people who are satisfied.
Honestly, I didn't really use it,it kept all the plastic films on etc. It's not that I'm not going to get one if it proves reliable more that I'm quite unlucky with phones generally!
I will keep looking in here tho and will likely getting a red/orange one again in a few weeks....

I suggest you just get a silicone cover or something, to protect it. A wrist lanyard also helps a lot. And to increase your chance of getting a Z3C from a more recent production batch, you can keep an eye on a web shop and order a Z3C after the stock runs out and is restocked.
Camera Button
Is the Z3c hardware camera button designed to require a fairly lengthy press to activate? I'm guessing that maybe it's a design built in to perhaps avoid accidental pocket presses, but I'm not sure.
Just a quick tap does not activate it on mine, but it works fine with a slightly longer press.

Mine too, also there seems to be a 2-step press for it, as on a regular camera (half hold down to focus). Half pressing doesn't start it.
Have had to mess with settings to turn off the quick launch which was set to launch and capture as I have so many pics of either a finger or blackness!

On mine the sound is pretty loud through the mic, so much so that I thought the loudspeaker was on! Conversely though the actual loudspeaker doesn't seem that loud! Go figure!
For the battery I think you would only get 2 days with the Stamina settings active. I manage to get down to about 25% on a full day of regular usage (in office etc). The Stamina / Ultra stamina modes seem to just disable pretty much everything on the phone. OK if you need to keep it powered on but no good for regular usage. I've ended up turning stamina mode on and then re-enabling Wifi, seems to improve life quite a bit for the times I have been hammering it!

Always been the case since the Treo days, lol. People will look and see all these problems, but they are random people, that really only for the most part show up here to resolve "issues". While it is a great thing for folks looking for corrections, it does appear bad on the surface if you don't really understand the dynamic at play on boards like these.

Yes. Your button is behaving normally.
I'm currently on my third unit within 7 days. My Internet connection seems to hang about 2 or 3 times a day, and until I try to use the Internet Is don't realise. After then restarting my phone, I get a flood of whatsapps, emails and fb alerts. It's getting really old really quickly,to the point where I just want rid of the phone.

I've only had that once, last Fri however it is a bit weird, here's how mine manifested itself:
- Work most of the day in an office, good wifi connection. Don't use the phone much but see that it is working OK, getting emails, fb updates etc. Can browse the internet via Chrome
- Left the office and try to do a search. Using Google search from the home screen the results showed up very quickly but then when I tried to open any of those links in chrome it would just say no network or something similar. Tried shutting down chrome, clearing cache and data but made no difference.
The weird thing here is that the 4g / mobile data connection WAS working, but the issue was with Chrome.
I'm still stock, not likely to change that but since Chrome is now an intrinsic part of the Xperia build how do you uninstall / reinstall? Or do I end up installing another browser?
Chrome has done this to me on Z3 Compact and a few times on my previous Xperia ZR. Just close the browser from the multi-app right button by flicking it to the side, then try again. If it gets too tedious, install another browser.
Hi, any one have the same issue as me?
My Z3C black out after 2nd week of use then could not power on. Brought to service center and the person claim that it is software issue.. Took back the phone after they reformatted, then after 12hrs use, same problem again.. Then they change 1-1 for me.. but after another week of use, same issue on the 2nd phone!
who have the same issue as me? what should i do next? i cant be bringing the phone in to service center every week..
hello,
I think it's the same pb for me... "Z3 Compact" bought the 28.09.2014. The phone is turned off itself in the middle of the day in my pocket. The battery level was approx. 75% => Black screen, not even light on the charger...:S The Sony support told me to send them with charger and usb cable. I am waiting for news... approx. 10 days...
Hello everyone.
I am on build number EVA-L09C02B123
My screen is not very responsive in some areas, sometimes in more than a few areas. It needs a firmer press.
Is this an issue address in the 30+ firmwares, or is it my device? anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks

same here on EVA-L09C150B121
I have a similar problem when I hold my phone in both hands. The palm of my hands are touching the screen because of the small bezel and that causes the touchscreen to be unresponsive in other areas. I'm also having the Vodafone version EVA-L09C02B123. Huawei should add some kind of detection like Apple has on the iPad since the Mini. That would fix it.
So it very well could be the firmware version.
I also had a Carphone Warehouse one at 131, and that worked like a charm. I guess we need to wait for Vodafone to roll out an update

it would be curious to see which model colours do which.
I have a white from CPW which was pre-scratched out of the box, with a hairline scratch visible against lamp lights - putting a tempered glass on hides this 100%. Still I wanted to return it, and get a black.
My black had terrible responsiveness issues. My white has none, they're almost not there. I think it could after all have something to do with the front panel's alignment to the digitizer.
It is so amazing that in this day and age we still have to worry about s**t like that (light bleeds, responsiveness, scratches out of the box)
I have this problem to and problem when change local memory to card sd. My phone freeze

L09 with 136 here (Titanium grey) and luckily I have no issues.
Good to know mate. I am starting to think this is a problem very similar to the Note 4 where in some units the glass panel was misaligned which required a firmer press on the back button.
I will try another dark from. Vodafone UK. They are on 123 version but the unit also costs 300 with them which is a steal
did anybody try to activate glove mode in settings? may be the display become more responsive
Good idea. I will try that.
I have some kind of theory.
When i turn display brightness up between 60-100% and start playing cpu intense games the following happens:
(Auto Brightness turned off)
1. Phone starts warming up significantly from the upside and continues to get warm until the bottom.
2. Display brightness suddenly starts changing (Thermal throttling!?)
3. Responsiveness decreases
4. Phone gets really really warm
(Auto Brightness turned off - between 30-50%)
1. Phone does not warm up so much. Still getting warm but okay.
2. Display brightness does not change anymore
3. Responsiveness much better with nearly no failures
I have the feeling that in B135 the phone was not getting as hot as in B136
Sometimes when i open phone and try answer to whatsapp, screen is very responsiveness.. And im using google keyboard.. Anyone got problem like this?
Having the same problem playing games. EVA L19 136. I'm sure it's a software bug. Waiting for an update...

How did you installed 136 on EVA-L19? 130 seems to be the latest version
It was an update that came automatically when I updated the phone. I live in Romania.
I'm also having screen issues but it seems to be the opposite of what everyone is describing :
- Unwanted touches even though I'm not touching the screen. Can happen several times in a row in the same area
- Bad scroll detection : the device often recognizes the first touch of a scroll as a selection, or interprets a selection while scrolling
- Bad long-touch detection
I'm going to send the device back to Amazon but I'm fearing this is not an hardware issue and knowing Huawei is really sloppy when it comes to sorting issues, I'm thinking it might be best not to get a new P9.
PS: I'm on build B136.
What do you think ?
I think it's a software issue with B136. What model do you have? Does your problem happen at certain times or all the time?
I have P9 EVA-L09 bought in France.
It happens almost all the time but to a certain degree : sometimes it's very subtle, but sometimes the device goes crazy and starts taping on its own, opening links I didn't select, etc. Quite a nightmare.
Have you tried to Factory reset it? Or manually install some other verion of the official rom?
So iam now 3 days in with the S10 plus and i have to say that while theres lots i love about it , iam also disappointed. Here are my complaints thus far..... I pray some of these can and will be fixed with a software update.
1 - Camera, Yes its pretty good but i expected more. No better then the S9 imo. Expected a little more from Samsung with regards the camera this year.
2 - Kepad touch issues..... I virtually cannot type on this phone without constantly and accidentally hitting the 'p' key. I do not have chubby hands or anything but whenever i need to reach across to the left side of the keypad , iam forever hitting that 'p' key and it drives me crazy to the point where i may return the phone.
3 - No notification LED - This wouldnt be a deal breaker if Edge lighting worked properly but Edge lighting is pretty damn poor lets be honest. Works fine for default messaging app but thats about it.
4 - Fingerprint scanner - Was awful initially but improved massively once i removed the pre-installed screen protector and added a second fingerprint using the same finger. However, I still find that it occasionally fails to read my fingerprint. I feel like iam placing my thumb in the right area given that the icon lights up to help me but somehow it still sometimes fails. I would say it works around 80% of the time
5 - Fast Charging - Again i expected more. Its not slow but its not fast either. It takes around 1hr 45 mins to get from 15% - 100%
For me personally i would be happy if they could improve the keypad and fingerprint issue but theres already been updates and not much has changed.

You can modify the size of the keyboard for this very reason, move it up or down until you can use it comfortably.
You can also modify the curve display deadzone with goodlock.
I'm also surprised that AOD doesn't fill the void of a notification led.. it certainly does for me.. In saying that I would like to see a notification ring around the camera cutout, I think that would of been a nice touch.
I agree with you on everything you mentioned.
I would add one more thing regarding accidental touches, I am a skinny guy, and so are my hands, but whenever I am reaching to other side of the screen, I find the screen either not responding to my touches or causing accidental touches, what drives me crazy is that I check the palm of my hand and almost always it's not even touching the edge of the screen, it's as if even when your skin is hovering few mm above the edge if the screen the phone will take it as if your actually touching it, if that makes sense.
As for the camera, coming from the Note 9, I am so disappointed with the low light capabilities of this phone, even indoors it's not up to par with other flagships, I even get worse shots than my previous Note 9 and S9. To make matters worse, Samsung didn't include a propper night mode that can compete with Huawei's night mode or the Pixel's night sight.
Sorry for my bad English, I hope I was clear enough in delivering my point. Cheers.

The S10 does have a Multi Colored Notification LED around it's camera cutout. This YouTube video explains how to activate and manage it.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/b0p0o6/s10_s10_how_to_enable_led_notification_light/
Try using a light touch on the fingerprint display reader as opposed to a hard press, this is how it's designed to function.
The S10 Camera has a Pro Mode, you can adjust virtual any aspect of photos to your preference.

That notification is from using a 3rd party app and a light touch with the screen protector hasn't worked too well.

I contacted Samsung about the keyboard issue! All they suggest is to leave feedback. If your using the stock keyboard then it can be resized which i guess kinda is a solution but you have to bring it in from both sides to keep it centered and the keyboard then winds up been a tad too small so its not ideal! Its weird because my s9 plus was almost identical in terms of its dimensions yet it did not have this issue.
fingerprint scanner has also been a nightmare today! I could swear iam not doing anything different yet it works sometimes and rejects me other times. Its makin me miss the finger print scanner on the s9. It was so much better. Another small annoyance is how fast my battery goes from 100% to 99% lol
Battery in general is great but i charge it to 100%, Unplug it and seconds later iam at 99% .......... what the fudge ha
I used an iphone xs temporarily recently and i have to say that while it is over priced and in general Samsung is much better and cheaper too. However, Apple does things properly. It worked flawlessly and never gave issue. The Samsung is far better on paper and ticks all the boxes but in day to day use its just not as 'perfect'
For over three months I happily have xperia 10 mark 4. There are one couple of things that do not give me peace. Maybe someone has similar observations and solutions to these problems. The biggest anxiety is the strange operation of the light sensor, the sensor responsible for blocking the phone during a call. In my opinion it works. as he wants. Often it only dims after putting it on the table, unlocks in the pocket, or after finishing the conversation it turns out that it is permanently blocked and you need to unlock it to hang up. Often, it does not lock up during the conversation and it turns out that any program is turned on. Sometimes everything works perfectly. This is the biggest problem so far. The unlocking itself works somehow so slowly and not always correctly. Has anyone seen the icon or the information 'fast charging'? I have an 18w and 30w charger and like nothing. How does 5g work for you - does it work at all? A few more things, but I will wait a bit for our department, if not, I will continue here.
The next thing that bothers me is that sometimes right at the beginning of the call I hear this click - quite strong - and the volume changes a bit. Have you noticed that too? Unfortunately, my phone has fallen a few times from the height of the pocket in my pants..
