3-4 seconds? Something sounds very wrong. I'm on the latest generic UK build (23.1.A.1.28) and my video recording starts almost as soon as I touch the button. The delay is certainly less than half a second. Doesn't matter whether I'm in iA, manual or 4K mode. I'm recording to a 64GB Sandisk...

Did you check to make sure 4G is enabled? You can press the 4G switch from the quick settings menu or go into the settings app and then under Wireless and Networks ...More >Mobile Networks > Preferred Network type. Perhaps you have WCDMA (preferred/GSM selected, in which case you won't see the...

So I had the exact same issue. I pressed the power button and volume down together and the phone rebooted back into the bootloader, this time it says *** UNLOCKED*** at the top of the screen. SF

So I've just found out that my Roku 3 streaming network player now has beta support for screen mirroring from some Android and Windows mobile devices. Roku's own blog shows that they have tested it with a selection of Samsung and Nexus devices, but they encourage trying other unlisted devices...

There's a button on the side of the phone that does exactly that! It also hides a lot of other stuff... SF

I did fill out the survey, but I declined to add my XDA username. SF

So I also have my rear cover lifting, and have contacted Sony for an RMA. Will send my phone back next week. Back to my old Moto Milestone 1 I suppose... :/ SF

Update finally available to UK Unbranded owners via PC Companion. Edit: If you want an FTF to flash via Flashtool, please see KingVortex's thread. Thanks, KingVortex! SF

Just connected my UK unbranded Xperia Z via USB and have been notified of an available update to 10.3.A.0.423. Finally something is happening for us UK owners! SF

I can't because I let Lenovo System Update download and install the driver. I have no idea where it got it from! SF

WinRAR certainly isn't free, but 7-Zip is... http://www.7-zip.org SF

Well, you were right - the Lenovo Bluetooth driver solved everything and I now have all the usual AV and headset profile options as well as proximity locking and even the ability to use my PC keyboard and mouse to remote control my phone. I'm not sure how useful this is yet, but might come in...

I don't think you can add traditional speed-dials to dialling keys by long-pressing - it doesn't work for me - but surely "Starred Contacts" (one swipe to the right of the dialler) makes speed dial redundant? If you want one-touch dialling to specific numbers, you can always add direct dial...

The answer is in the post just above yours. SF

This didn't work on my HTC Sensation - even unrooting completely would not fool the Barclays apps, such as Pingit or Mobile Banking. Maybe it was because I was running a CM10 Kang... SF
