    Does the Sony Xperia Z3 have the built in screen recording feature on it?

    Those options predated 5, I've got them on 4.4.

    How can I use tap to wake with Lollipop?

    Re: tap to wake with lollipop? You might consider an app like Delayed Lock that suppresses the lock screen based on conditions like a specific wifi logged in. That should allow the phone to wake up on last screen...

    Annoying sounds White on a call

    Lightflow allows you to specify whether each notification sounds during a call. Works perfectly on Z3 on KK.

    Keep wifi on setting?

    I have wifi always on to allow all the push services to get thru without using mobile data. It doesn't seem to affect battery life much. I still get almost 2 days (11 hours screen on according to gsam). That's with most bloat disabled.

    Flashed Xperia Lollipop to Z3 - First Impressions

    You might give LUX Auto Brightness a try. It's a lot more accurate than the built in at least on 4.4...

    Walkman App. No Longer See SD Card Music

    Have you checked Walkmans settings to see if they added a media folder; could be pointing at the wrong place. Also try refreshing the media index using one of the apps like Rescan SD.

    How do I stop my Sony Xperia Z3 from answering calls when I am on a call?

    Re: sony xperia z3 Couldn't say about auto answer but if you don't EVER want to answer a 2nd call you can set Call Forward Busy to your voicemail number. If you'd rather callers get a busy signal turn off call waiting (*70 for next call, *43 I think for all calls--might have to get CS to turn...

    Question about charging dock and magnetic cables

    To date? Better make that never--the magnetic charging port only has TWO contacts. How's it going to do data without the other pair of wires? Sony may even have tested with four contacts and determined it to be too error prone with bumping or vibration. I think I used USB data one time in 3...

    Switch from Moto X to Xperia Z3?

    Re that techradar article, the author really goes on about the card and USB covers protruding. Mine doesn't AT ALL. They're both completely flush. Not that it matters once you put a case on. Also I LIKE the magnetic charger--I use a magnetic cable not the stand but the convenience of not having...

    File Naming Issues...

    Not sure you did understand me. I'm saying DON'T MOVE the highest numbered photo (DCM005 in your example)--COPY that one to where you want it but LEAVE it in the DCIM folder. As long as there is no file present the camera is going to restart at 001. If there is one photo DCM005 the next photo...

    File Naming Issues...

    Doesn't appear to be using a stored starting number--looks like it just uses the highest file name as the template. In other words if DCM008 is the last file the next pic will be DCM009. It doesn't fill any gaps. So you can just leave a copy of the LAST photo (and remember to delete it instead...

    Note 3: KitKat update disabling use of external micro SD Card

    RE comments about built-in gallery app and others not seeing music on ext sdcards. Besides the .nomedia "ignore this folder" reason above, the built-in apps use a media index file that Android doesn't always update automatically. There are several apps on play store that rebuilds the index on...

    Sony Store now has unlocked Z3 D6603

    http://m.store.sony.com/products/27-M~XZ3D6603 Backordered until 11/10. Hard time deciding between black and copper but finally went copper--never had anything but black phones--hope I don't regret that.

    Phone rings through phone speaker instead of earbuds

    Ours, one S3 one Moto, do the same thing. I just assumed it's a safety thing to avoid damage to your ears. Same reason it rings via the speaker phone not the earpiece.
