I've got the Verizon Xperia Z3v, you've got questions. Fire away!

I'm very curious about this phone. I would love to have a waterproof phone. And just be able to use it everywhere.

Hey, folks. So I've been using the Xperia Z3v for a week now. Perhaps you've already read my review. (If you haven't, start there. It'll answer a lot.) And now you've got questions. Fire 'em at me here, and I'll answer 'em!

Would you recommend this device over the Note 4 or iPhone 6 Plus?

How's about the FM radio? Is it left enabled and functional?

My Z3v Fm is disabled and VZW won't explain why they put it in there but hobbled it. False advertising since Fm is in spec sheet and white paper.

Hey Jim - that was one of the selling points for me. Download SpiritFM from the Play store:

THis developer uses some low level coding to get at the FM radio. It works. I use it every day.

I just hope that Lollipop doesn't shut it down.

When I connect the Sony Xperia Z3v to my usb it pops up as a removeable disc but doesn't allow me to check content on the phone from there. Verizon and Sony don't have any answers for me. I downloaded PC Companion and such and nothing supports the z3v, only the z. This blows my mind that I still cannot find anything on this topic. I've had the phone for 2 months and I can't get pictures off my phone or view anything on the phone. Solutions? Please reply.

Thanks much. I'll try it. Noticed the author said good luck with Lollipop. Maybe we'll get lucky. Fidelity, separation and RDS work well? Cheers
