Z has a forum nice! how about ZL? - Xperia Z General

Same Phone in specs.. no reason for it not to be included

There pretty much the same phone.. I'm sure this forum is for the both of them.
Sent from my Vivid 4G using xda app-developers app

they are same phone except for the case Z has glassy and ZL has plastic
ohhh and i forgot a physical phone shutter button on ZL

don't forget the IR blaster on the ZL
but yeah, pretty much the exact same phone

but would a rom that works with the z, would work for the zl that is the question.
The xperia t, tx and v has the same internals and similar screens, but roms that work with one doesn't work with the other.

good idea!

i think zl is well

I just hope they sell an unlocked zl here in the US. Hopefully it won't be an AT&T exclusive

I'm sure the ZL, and Z ROMs will work with each other. Like a generic Multi-Rom.

lol @AgentCherryColla
you going to get this device also? Glad to see another (former)user of MT4GS here

Things will get worked out as the devices are released. Closing thread

[DISCUSSION] Desire Z development..who will be in??

I think i'm not the only one that hates senseUI so my following questions are:
1. what developers would put the effort to max this phone to it's best?
2. Will we have cyanogen?
3. will we have screen calibration?(i really god used with true color rather than "blue pushed" colors).
Please if any developer would love to put a bit of comfort to our hearts please post here that you would do the best for this phone
So looking forward for it!
Edit: posible to swich roms from G2 to z and other way? that would be nice,theoretically it's very posible same hardware!
looks like the G2 will have stock froyo(not sure) but i really hope we can cyanogen mod on this thing! still don't think desire z is going to replace n1 on the priority list.

You are quite right,but alao g2 might take the place of n1,and g2=desire z,it'q all a matter of rooting i think.
Damn i will really miss the led flash from n1) really really usefull for me.
LED flash? G2 also has a flash with its camera, if thats what you mean..
Also, to your 3rd point, if you're talking about the blue tinge issues and such, these screens won't have those issues as they're not AMOLED's, but SLCD's.
Aaaa sry i mean trackball led flash.

but no led track ball though still wonder if it'll steal the crown from the n1. afterall desire z isn't a "google experience" phone.

dang. i was hoping for super amoled display. well atleast with slcd we won't be getting anymore burnin. hopefully.
Unfortunately for now, Only Samsung has the rights to use S-AMOLED. Its their tech anyways. But I believe from next year fall onwards they will start selling S-AMOLED screens to other manufacturer's.
For me S-amoled is not that interesting anymore,really curios about this S-lcd and it's multitouch capabiliti really hope is better than n1 or desire.

Cyanogen tweeted earlier this month saying that he's getting a G2, so I think it's safe to say that the G2/Desire Z will have lots of developer/hacker support. Honestly, that's part of the reason I'm so excited about the G2. I'll likely be keeping it for the full 2 year contract, so having a phone that's so supported by XDA is a huge advantage.

Totally agreed, I stuck with the G1 till now which definetly would not have been possible without everyone at XDA. You think that maybe Cyanogen might make a Non-Sense version and a Sense version of the ROM?

I've been done something useful on Motorola Milestone and I've ever been in HTC WiMo devices modding etc.
Selling Milestone, HTC Desire Z already ordered and waiting for its arrival. I'm in.
First of all, we have to see if it's unlocked, then we can play with the system: putting Sense on CyanogenMod maybe is possible, we'll see. I'll do better than I can.
-kholk.
I'm a little curious which one would work on at&t 3g. I prefer no sense and think cyanogen will support that before sense.

Why would you make a trade like that? The Desire is much better than the X10. Hell, any HTC phone is better than an SE android phone. It doesn't even have real multitouch!

Because the Desire has smaller screen, amoled, 5mp camera, its ugly compared to x10 and it doesnt have real multitouch! It has the same dual touch that N1 with the cross axis problemhas and its absolutely the same with the one that x10 will have. Also Htc phones are known for bad cameras and bad audio quality so i dont think any Htc is better than any SE, and if you think that is the case wth did you buy an SE phone? Now gtfoh we dont need trolls like you. And to OP i think you should post in Market and not here.

SE Phones are way better, they just can't keep up with android fast iterations.
Anyway, I'm enjoying a very good implementation of android 2.1 on my Xperia X10i now.
About multitouch, i guess this is the same problem the nexus one had when i got multitouch.(Just guessing)
hey guys chill out, don't discuss or compare the phones now here
I just want to have Xperia X10 in place of HTC Desire, if anybody is interested just let me know, simple!!

If you had a Desire Z I'd immediately trade mine. Heck, I'd almost trade for an original Desire if it were new but you live a little ways away (I'm in Canada) and we probably don't have matching bands anyway.
Good luck though.

Well you come here to an x10 forum and post uselless coments like htc is better than se.. no one asked you and everyone has opinions regarding whats better than what. Because htc is build better thats why the owners of the flagship device DHD are complaining about the really ****y speakerphone the missalined unicover, the really bad camera, the headphone jack on the bottom, the space gap between the battery cover , camera and the unibody and the screen edges raised? And thats what you call built better? Anyway lets stop this useless posts and please dont post tings like that in the future. As i stated to the OP this thread does not belong here but in the market place where you can trade, sell and buy products.

Yes, we are all super happy with our X10s.
I think you have a better chance if you posted this in the Mobile Phone Bazaar section of Hardwarezone forums. Most certainly, there are more Singaporeans there.
I dont know why, but I have a feeling that there is some malicious agency at work trying to make xperia look trash. It is without doubt an awesome experience. And as long as you have it, why complain?

I'd recommend getting the Samsung Galaxy S2 for sure if you can get it on your carrier which is most now .

I got mine in another country, that is, there is no guarantee with Sony, just to the store, but it will be very difficult to replace the device.

I choose the standard z5 because it's only marginally bigger than my XZ premium is to big for me

Mine is a UK rev 2, there's no problems here. You can't draw a generalisation from a few reported cases.
With every shipped batch, regardless of Rev number, there will be faulty phones.

And how will I know whether UK or Taiwan? The device box indicate?
I got a golden Z5 (non compact) REV3. My right- and bottom sides of the screen are unresponsive. It's only a couple of millimeters but it makes it hard to press "p" and space on the keyboard.
Also reading that some people have back light bleeding.
My problem doesn't seem to effect many people though.
I have a rev1 from the UK with no issues. Screen is fine. Sound is fine. Camera is perfect. The only issues are software related which I hope Sony fixes in the near future.
From what I have read the rev3 series seems to be the ones with the majority of the issues. I wonder what the difference was in the manufacturing process?
Hi guys. How do you go about finding if your Z5 is a rev1 etc? I am thinking of buying my Z5 from Clove either this week, so it would be good to know.
Where to find rev?
Sent from my E6653 using XDA Free mobile app
Rev number can be found on the box by the barcodes
