    Post Pathetic Honor People and support

    Wow there is a lot of cr*p here. If you BUY a product, you should be allowed to use it AS IT SUITS YOU. - Imagine buying a car, with the company refusing you to go in a different garage than theirs. You can't put new tires, can't change the oil or can't refuel without their consent. - When you...

    Post How do I "properly" root my Z5...?

    Be sure to backup your Ta multiple times and to copy it in various devices (hdd, USB, cloud...). Using the Sony ric off method allows you to restore your Ta if they are placed in the same folder as the tool. This tool should also flash supersu if in the same folder. Your kernel is modified...

    Post Flashed TWRP but cant boot in

    Did you patched your own kernel? I'm absolutely not sure, but that may be the reason. Twrp may need a modified kernel to use the boot shortcut. Try to use adb to push supersu zip. Or if you are patching your kernel, place the zip in the patcher and it will install automatically. You should...

    Post [Q] Can't get into Recovery Mode, No Pink LED light.

    You should be able to install a recovery on stock. Does not need to unlock the bootloader. But for what purpose?

    Post [Q] Can't get into Recovery Mode, No Pink LED light.

    Recovery is different to flash mode. Pressing volume key while plugging USB = flash mode. Repeatedly pressing volume key right after powering up = recovery mode. Only available if you installed custom recovery.

    Post Phone died after water got inside the usb port flap

    From what he said, they were closed, but defective. Which happens if you open them regularly to charge / connect to pc. Defective flaps are also a motive to return. The phone is IP65/68. As such, it shouldn't be damaged in any way from continuous immersion before 3 meters. Obviously if...

    Post My Back Glass Lifted up

    Legit. Next time my wheel get removed from my car, I'll leave it on the ground and will put a new car right where my wheel is standing. It's safer.

    Post your z3c charging speed?

    Maths. 2600 mAh battery. 800 mA charger. 2600/800 = 3.25 or 3 hours and 15 minutes. Today, I don't think this phone can accept anything like 2A charger (don't really know) . Else, it would take 1.3h or 1 hour and 18 minutes. Get a 2A charger, disconnect every electrical equipment and...

    Post Looking for textured back skin / shield

    Bought from them twice. Shipping is very slow since you pay less than 2$ of shipping fee. As said, the cut is really precise, and repositionnnable if necessary. I have the "carbon" one and it looks great. Almost like real carbon fiber. It's textured and resistant to scratch. Don't expect...

    Post [Q] What is most premium color for Z3c white or black?

    Black phones always do "cheaper", more plastic... However, the white one got a problem. In a dark room, the edge of the screen has kind of a halo around. The brightness of the screen (even with 10% luminosity) tend to light the white glass case.. Kinda annoying and ugly.

    Post Touch Screen Sensitivity...

    Indeed, screen protector helps. I suggest a good tempered glass. The screen is much more smooth, soft and protect the quite fragile screen glass. I doubt any update will ever resolve this issue. This is indeed because of the glove mode, and related to the hardware. It would require a...

    Post [Q] screen backlight perameters.

    Install lux and set it to adjust brightness automatically depending on ambiant light. Set it to -10 or 5% with 1 lux and 100% with 100. Etc. It take time to adjust it but will save your eyes and battery. Donation isn't necessary but bring some good options. Works like default adaptive...
