Quick question is there going to be a new thread for this device, the Tmobile Z1s? Also do any of the rooting,unlocking, and or any custom recoveries and roms work with the Z1s?

No sub forum for Z1s, no unlock bootloader, no root, no cutom recovery as of yet. And no you can't use international Z1 stuff,itll brick your device.

Thanks, good to know as I was planning on flashing the generic Canada firmware hoping to get rid of some restrictions (tethering) and bloatware.

Ah that's a bummer. Just swapped out my Z for the Z1s today and of course I'm came here first to see how to go about getting other FW on it for those exact reasons. Hopefully patience will pay off.

I have a question for Xperia z1S owners. Does this phone have hardware support for FM Transmitting? I don't have a car with an aux cable or Bluetooth so.. All of the music on my phone is inaccessible when I'm driving. But I'm hoping that the FM receiver can be made to transmit either natively or via 3rd party app?

I personally have the Z1s, and it has a built-in FM chip. You have to have a aux cable plugged into the 3.5mm jack for it to work though.

Why can't we get a sub-forum? There is like 4 different forums for the Galaxy S4 and the different carriers, same for Note III? There is enough difference between Z1 international and Z1s to warrant difference.

I get the little blue phone up in the status bar if I switch my setting to wifi preffered but I haven't tried actually making a call on it yet to see if it's truly working.

Yeah mine shows that as well. It won't connect any calls though--tried on two wifi networks so far.

Just gave mine a shot. Turned it on, called my friend once the blue phone icon was up, icon turned green, call connected and worked fine. Afterwards I got a pop up saying congratulations you just completed your first wifi call.

I read something about it not working if you don't have a 911 address on file. Mine works wonderfully btw. No more buzz from my n4

My only issue is the led is weird. Hads different colors depending on the angle

Yeah I registered my address when I started looking around for solutions. Pretty odd.

I just checked my.tmobile account and e911 wasn't enable, but wifi calling works for me. :) Was about to enable it, but you know what they say...if it's working don't touch it. :D
