Hi all,
Suddenly one day, my camera "searching window" (the whole screen) was black, both in photo and video mode (otherwise everything is normal). The camera captures both photo and video like normal, but the screen is all black, so it's very difficult to take good pictures. Everything is normal when I select camera on the taskbar, but when I tap the photo or video icon on the right the screen goes all black. I have no idea why this has happened. I had not done any change to any software for several months, and everything worked perfectly until then.
A soft reset did not change anything. I have previously had an analog clock and a Windows Beta 7 theme installed (used TF3D Config Tool and Total Commander), but they are uninstalled and caused no problems. The camera also worked normally with the Beta theme installed for many months. I uninstalled the Beta theme with TF3D Config Tool (restore default) because of this problem, but now my phone just has the standard menus again, and the camera problem is still there...
Does anyone have any idea how to solve this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-Daniel
Happened to my Fuze. Ended up reloading ROM (Dr. G's Clean).
Haven't had that issue again.
Hello!
Long time reader, first post here
I have bought a Xperia Z C6603 from amazon.de.
Yesterday i noticed while scrolling in chrome or any other application something strange:
When i had for example a dark background on a webside and yellow texte the text flimmers or gets orange while scrolling.
Another example:
White background website with black blocks on it, while scrolling there is violett ghosting on the rims of the blocks like in the beginning with the galaxy s4 display.
it only occurs while scrolling fast not while scrolling slowly.
I already had this phone last year april and i cant remember having such phenomen on my phone.
I only know such things from amoled-displays.
I run 4.3 stock android, everything is stock no root, straight out of the box. I have made a hard reset but it doesnt go away.
Display type according to the app is jdc mdy70 .
Is this normal or should i return the phone to amazon?
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Michael
Maybe someone could test for example the warcraft forums because i noticed it on this site first with the dark background and the yellow font.
The font turns orange and flickers while scrolling.
Thank you very much!
I tried the sc website and I don't have anything like you mentioned. My xz has the same screen as yours.

Hi,
I have the Z3 compact a while now and I have already rooted the phone (unlocked bootloader) and have flashed the rEctifY Rom.
Everything is fine, but I hate the “local adaptive contrast” function while I'm surfing. On many sites, which are not white, the screen becomes little darker in chrome when the adressbar disappears.
When I scroll up and the adressbar is shown, the screen becomes brighter immediately.
I already tried to uninstall many many things like "screen optimization 1.0" and so on. Nothing work. I think, it is a kernel thing.
You can see it on a site like "derstandard.at/web". Just scroll up and down to push the adressbar away and back. It is like the dynamic contrast function from my monitor. But I can turn off it there.
This function is also described here (I cannot post links):
Please use "tinyurl dot com" with this: "p34zuuc"
"A new “local adaptive contrast” algorithm has been introduced to the Xperia Z3."
Maybe somebody can help. And sorry for my bad english
Solution
I found a solution finally!
This problem is not present, when you flash Cyanogenmod 12.
The sound quality is also better now.
I looked for an another phone already. Now I can keep my Z3C
Just wanted you to know
Hey guys,
I've been having this issue since I installed the chroma Rom on my nexus 6. Basically whenever I play a video of any sort in chrome and full screen it, the url bar shrinks but is still visible on the screen, which add you can guess is a little annoying, an example is shown in the screenshot below, note this occurs in portrait as well as in landscape.
I've tried looking in a few places add well as here, and in settings for a solution but can't find any. So I was hoping you guys could help. The only thing that I think it could be and haven't tested yet is that I adjusted the pixel density to 420.
Help is much appreciated
Like the Subject title reads, can we start a list of all the known errors discovered in the Android Pie update, for the Mate 10 series phones?
:highfive:This will be a great thread to see if it is worth upgrading to Pie, for us still stuck on Oreo.
I have found 2 issues so far
1. recents doesn't play well with 3rd party launchers(workaround is to disable emui launcher trough adb)
2. Navbar has delay for 1 sec after adapting to colour of opened apps when using 3rd party launcher
Had some few glitches like gps icon stayed turned on while nothing was using gps and gpu turbo floating icon stayed on after exiting game.

Apparantly the new Gallery App is also not that great:
"The new photo gallery is a crap ,, whats the point of creating a new allbum called all photos ??
I miss the old one ,,,
And the worst thing is the new signal bars on the left with notifications !! What the heck is huawei thinking ?? We don't have a notch ,, this new emui is bs update"
As mentioned, Nova also buggy:
"So far, nova launcher is buggy, especially animations, and the previously working google cam port stopped working"
&
"Nova working fine here with the exception of recents and gestures. "
And also uses more RAM than on EMUI 8 / Oreo:
"EMUI 9 is soooo ram hungry. Dropping below a gig here from light use and everything is refreshing. "
Well dont know about ram. Its same for me as before
atm while doing nothing its sitting at 3gb just like in oreo.
Only problem I have noticed is that's sometimes apps just went to recent by itself... usually when I'm typing - chatting. But it's overall fast to go back , sometimes it's annoying. For me ram management is ok, just like in oreo. Few graphic glitches here and there.

Navbar is too sensitive. I usually hit Home now when I'm hitting Space.
And/or big thumbs.

Maybe that's the reason, I hope that they will fix it soon :fingers-crossed:
I think in oreo there was like 1 second delay when pressing on screen and then trying to press navbar. it woudnt allow you to do that right away.
I'm getting the strong impression the Pie update, for the Mate 10 series, needs some more fine tuning. Maybe, with some updates it'll get better.
Let's get those bugs listed guys! :highfive:
Don't see a difference with the "super macro" mode in new camera software
MATE 10. The recent apps screen is ****, if you hit the one app that's halfway hidden on the side you just get dumped back to where you were without opening that app.
The camera app in my mate 10 eats up literally 600MB of RAM wtf? Also RAM usage in general is higher almost than EMUI 8 on the Mate 10, where I had 2.2GB free most of the timein 8.0, now the usual is 1.8GB, so that's 400MB more of RAM used for EMUI 9.

Yup, I also had this problem - it does bug me, typing a message and kept clicking home. I changed the nav bar to be hidden and use gestures now (swipe up for home, swipe left / right for back, swipe up and hold for task manager). This works for me!
Couple of other things I've noticed - takes a while to archive a gmail email in the notifications - there's a delay which wasn't there before.
Ran a AnTuTu benchmark - previously it was around 200,000 - its now reporting about 160,000 but apart from the gmail delay (above) the phone still feels snappy! I then saw the performance setting (under battery) and switched this on to re-benchmark - got around 210,000 this time.
I've switched performance mode back off for now.

It should have been obvious I guess! When I switch the performance mode on clearing these notifications is much quicker - this is the only thing I have really noticed in terms of speed with / without performance mode in the first couple of days.

Can you describe what is the problem?
So far it works good on my phone. I have installed MicroG first and then YouTube Vanced. There is additional Google entry in the accounts list for MicroG.
No more force LTE Only option, although you have tweak it before the update using System Editor. Hmmm...
