    Magnetic port breaking

    I have the same issue. My magnetic charging port is very loose and I need to push it back in to the phone after each charge. Apparently all USB ports on Sony's devices are not covered by warranty so if you need to send it off to a Sony repair center it will cost. I have read some suggestions on...

    I hate Lollipop

    See BenL's post above. The data toggle is accessible if you swipe down the dark grey notification menu. There is however no volume-mute toggle. If you're using Power Toggles you also have the option to place the toggle bar/s in your notification bar rather than having a homescreen widget - so...

    Lollipop in the UK

    I have just received an email from Sony (in the UK) advising me that the update is now available. But I am going to wait 1-2 weeks to read about any issues this update may have on the Z3c because some reports claim there is 'battery drainage'. I hope not! Has anyone found other issues with the...

    Turbo/Quick Charger?

    Thanks for the information. I do not understand the terminology '1C charge' and '0.75C for maximum life'. In order to obtain 0.75C for max life what do I need to do in practice? I am still keen to find out, as the initial question implied, whether this phone can be 'turbo' or 'quick' charged...

    Turbo/Quick Charger?

    I am trying to find out if there is a turbo charger or quick charger for the Z3 Compact. According to Qualcom's website the Snapdragon 801 chip is compatible with such chargers but there does not appear to be a Sony proprietary charger and I am not sure if third party chargers from the likes of...

    Call recorder

    Does anyone know if any Call Recorder apps work with the Desire S? I have tried to record with Automatic Call Recorder and MP3 InCall Recorder. Although they activate when I take or make a call the actual recordings when played back have no sound. My HTC Desire S phone is not rooted. Thanks in...
