No Full HD!

[DeathlessOne]

Yes, I disabled the soft buttons and use PIE instead so it goes full screen.

Oh great idea!

Yes, why not? I'm already using it. But you have to first unlock your bootloader, root it and flash the ROM.
Cheers.

It looks like Sony has used a 1080x1776 display resolution in the Z rather than the original 1920x1080!
Some apps I used, showed the system specs as mentioned above, but I discarded it hoping that there was some error in their calculations. But even Vellamo benchmark shows the same as 1776. Is it true Sony that the device is not totally 1080p or what?
Or maybe, the rest of pixels was devoted to the soft buttons and the apps doesn't count it?
Very confusing on this part! Guys if you do know something about this, then please do share!

Using it will increase the pixels right?

No, magically replacing the screen will increase the pixels.

Xperia Z has a Full HD screen, the screen with SystemUI on top is 1080x1812 pixels, the other 1080x168 pixels are the navbar on the bottom of the screen, but the total screen is still 1080x1920, so Full HD.

@OP: is this so hard to understand for you? or you need more explanation?

device screen is 1920*1080 but buttons take some space away


and answer to your topic name

your fHD tv uses 1920*1080 right so why arent BR or other good rips shown over all screen. theres always some black space on top and
bottom of the screen

Even it is, but very ridiculous considering they take up that much pixels for a button!

Right, but your post was essentially titled as if Sony was being misleading in their spec.

Add this to your build.prop and enjoy the full 1080x1920...

qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

You should install something like Button Savior or LMT Launcher as your soft buttons will go bye bye by doing this. I use the PIE option, so my screen looks like this....

No bars and I have PIE activated through the bottom (see screenshot)....

Man as many already wrote it is because of the softbar buttons, and as you may have experienced it fades away while watching movies and such, but if you still want full screen all the time there is a mod that removes them and you are able to replace them with example LMT launcher

EDIT: sorry for not reading previous posts before commenting
