Hello Awesome XDA peeps!!
Been lurking here for a month and a half after finding XDA when rooting my Xperia SP and have learned so much from this super community!! Finally registered today and also heading out the door soon to pick up a Z1! (giddy as a schoolgirl!! LOL!)
I just wanted to say thanks to all the mods, devs & regular users for all the cornucopia of knowledge here in these forums and I'm confident I'll be able to root the Z1 with zero hassle with all the help, tools and guides here!!

It's an unlocked international model (so sayeth the sales agent) and comes with the official charging block all for $670 CDN after tax! The deal sounds ok to me!

He isn't in the US. And the Z2 won't come officially to the US for probably 5-6 months.

Well, I bought it! Got the purple one and it's kinda cool, sort of Joker Purple so won't be an affront to my manliness!! :laugh: I didn't want to wait for the Z2 as I figure it will be a lot more expensive in Canada if it's supposedly 599 in the UK as I've seen online. I'm happy with the purchase, just heading out again to get a nice slim line case for it!
Thanks for all the input though!

I also got my Z1 off Amazon last week. No one knows when Z2 will be out in the US, but as others have said, maybe in the summer. I decided I'd rather enjoy a nice phone now rather than wait 4-5 months.

That's exactly my thinking!! I have to say I love this phone!! I totally fell in love the SP a month and a half ago when I got it and now the Z1 is even better! Now to let it charge up and then it's rooting time!
Aaaaaaaand I'm done! Bootloader unlocked, 14.2.A.1.136 rooted, life is good!!!
Now to setup how I like and me and Barney (yes I named my purple Z1 Barney!!) can call it a day!!

Update time! Tuesday night when I finished rooting I was using the stock 136 (bal) ftf and lost LTE, switched to NUTs stock 136 (customized bal) and still no LTE, switched last night to the stock 136 (global) and LTE in tha house baby! . My purple baby beast of a phone is running beautifully!
Oh and it's not Barney anymore... The Z1 is such a sexy beast of a phone that Barney seems kind of insulting! Due to the purple hue I have dubbed it "Violet" (also the name of my first girlfriend back in grade 6 and she was in grade 8... goodtimes! Man that was a long time ago! lol!)

I actually ordered a C6906 off Ebay because I figured the Z2 would be delayed and even then, several months away from release in the U.S. Also, I'm an impatient sonovabitch. I figure I'll just sell my Z1 and buy a Z2 when it's finally available here. I had the Z Ultra briefly and really liked the software experience. My only beef was the camera, which the Z1 should satisfy.
I wish Sony was better about making their phones available here. I would have even considered a Z1 Compact if it had AT&T LTE bands.

Probably recognizable for most of the die hard members here. It's like waiting for someone posting a new rom, you keep bashing F5 to see if something is there yet. Now I have a similar problem. Yesterday I received a message from my provider my contract is renewed and the Arc is on his way to my house as we speak.
I checked out Track&Trace and the parcel indeed has left the transport company this morning. Now I notice I keep looking outside the window every 2 minutes I already have the feeling I am a bit behind, while this phone just hit the market a couple of weeks ago.
Well, not a very constructive post I assume, but I thought I share something useless for a change with you guys. I already saw a few familiar names from people who came of X10, but going through the topics I already noticed lots of new names.
Hopefully some good devs buy this thing as well so we can fool around a lot with this beauty.........hmmm....still no postman here
Cheers,
Arnold

Arc is one of the best phones out there.
Rooting for a custom rom seems to be quite difficult...
You might have to wait a bit.

i know exactly how u feel. i ordered 2 and had to wait for a month before i cud get my hands on em. i called sony showroom everyday and eventually when it came, they gave me a discount
"all good things to those who wait"
@ arnold:
btw I ordered one for me and one for the mrs. same as you...
Well my wife changed here mind and went to another provider where she gets an ipad2 for free with a 2 year contract for 32euro a month. Really can't understand how they can make money on these kind of offers. I spoke with kpn for a while and in the end I get my arc for free now. In exchange it will be delivered by a very slow postman
Sent from my X10i using Tapatalk
Mate, you are going to love it when it arrives. It really is a huge step up from the X10.
I played with the X10 a little this morning and it made me realize how much better the arc is. Also, X10 feels like an absolute brick in comparison.
Hope it turns up soon!!!

like hyperx10 said, ull love it. it really is the sexiest gadget i've held in my hand and not bcoz i spent money for it ... really worth the wait. if only devs root it soon.
pollypix: cant wait for you to make awesome wallpapers for arc!
does the arc also has the 960x854 resolution? In that case you can use the 180 wallpapers i posted in the x10 section. Or would it be wise than to copy it to the arc section as well?
480x854 screen, so those wallpapers will work.

I got mine today too...
I was scared to go to the toilet because it is at the far end of the house and I wouldn't hear the doorman. It didn't help that I had to wait until 3pm for him to arrive
But it was all worth it am loving the phone so far...
If you think that's bad, how about actually having the box in the house but having to prevent yourself from opening it because you have work that needs to be done? xD
I got mine with Three UK, their "All-you-can-eat data" (real unlimited data usage with no fair use policy, tethering supported and advertised) for £40/mo with nothing to pay up front.
According to their store manager it's also unbranded and not SIM locked so when SE stop supporting it I'm hopeful I'll be able to unlock the bootloader
So I'm more of a lurker than a poster but since I got this new phone I'd like to share
If you have any questions just ask (^^)b
Coming from a Samsung Galaxy S2 so far I love the screen (can never understand why people want a 150 degree viewing angle!) and the look and feel of the device is so much better )))
Some video would be nice, playing 1080p videos and games and some screen transitions with widgets etc.
I'd really want you to make some battery life tests, and as many UI screenshots as possible - that would ba great
Also, i officialy hate you for being in Japan while i'm not ( really really want to visit Japan! )

Hey, in Japan Xperia Z available in Sony stores? They must be unlocked, right?
Also since you got the phone, you can try out these apps as well

I'll see what I can do about taking a video of it playing a video lol
I only got it today so I haven't even fully charged it yet. I'll give it a full run out tomorrow and see how long it lasts.
Things of note so far, the screen is much more accurate than the galaxy s2. While typing at full speed I hardly make any mistakes but I made quite a lot more with
the s2. Also it seems to collect a lot of fingerprints so I would recommend getting a screen and back cover
You definitely have to come to Japan sometime, it's awesome!
yeah the phone is available in sony stores and I assume they are unlocked but I haven't asked them.
I bought it with docomo because it's cheaper
what apps?

Bro,
Nice of you to share your joy here. I'll be waiting till it comes out here on 1 March.
However, I'd like you to try a short test. How long does it take for the phone to wake up from deep sleep?
The reason I ask is Galaxy S2 and S3 takes a while to wake up as seen from my video:

You might be familiar with this behavior has you own an S2.
Thank you in advance!

You're also getting a rebate on service (which effectively ties you to Docomo since the rebate expires immediately if you exit early on top of your ETF and remaining handset obligation - in fact the Japanese word for phone contracts has the same root as the word used for bondage).
Congrats man..Lucky you! Waiting for a hands on video..Maybe in a dark room [lights turned off].
Can you compare 3g signal strenght in dbm asu put sony z and your gs2 on table with same carrier

Hey guys i will be leaving the xperia play section tommorow/next day
I have just ordered a brand new LG G2 32GB in Black and it should be here tommorow.
I registered on XDA in 2011 on my birthday 20th novermber... I have had the xperia play since that day and now its time to move on. TO THE AWESOME LG G2 !!!
It's been great here in the xperia play section and i hope to see some of you in the LG G2 section
Thanks for all your support.
Bye guys.
PS Any one wanna buy a Xperia Play? Mint condition - UK Only!
We are sad to see you go but completely understand. The LG G2 is a sweet device. I am sure you will love it. Best of luck and thank you for everything you have done for the Xperia PLAY forum.
Thank you for your efforts dude, you deserve to be a Recognized Contributor, wish the best for you.
Your birthday is same as mine, 20th November 0___0 . Anyway, I am going to miss you, even though I don't know about you much. Good bye and I am pretty sure everyone here on this Xperia Play Section gonna miss you too. Farewell and take care dude.
P.S Congrats on getting a new phone

Not sure yet, We will see. Might continue it on the LG G2 and Xperia Play (decided to get lg g2 over nexus 5) or i might open source it (code is messy be warned) and let others deal with it
I am hoping to get around £70 or a little more with a samsung class 6 16gb micro sd card, but offers are welcome (paypal is preffered payment method)
I still have the box, and it has had a case on all this time, barely any marks only slight wear on the gamepad part where the phone slides. and a few light marks on the sides, i will include case, charger plug (with a usb cable but its a bit dodgy, most people should have a micro usb cable by now though), Screen is mint condition. The only thing it won't include is the stock ear phones (or any) as i broke the stock sony earphones.
According to my research £70 is a average price. I also have 2 apk's from gameloft for 9mm and moderncombat (can't remember which number)
Any questions please ask, Contact me here or on my live chat on my kitchen Additionaly pm me skype and i will chat on there (no headset though it broke.)
oh and i will install any ROM that is on my kitchen before selling , Currently running super jelly bean 7.0 with lupus multiboot v8.
Oh and its factory unlocked to all networks, and is a unbranded model. and official bootloader unlock method was used.
i would upload pictures but i have no decent camera, I use my xperia play as a camera and obviously i can't use that to take pictures of the xperia play, LOL, in 2 days i will have my G2 and i can upload pictures then.
Oh and its the black r800i model. GSM!
another great dev of xperia is leaving
hope you be happy with your g2
any way i wanted to buy a g2 too but im more interested in nexus 5 because of great google support
have nice days with your new phone

Yeah although i never really developed anything for the actual xperia play i did develop various tools for use with the xperia play
The g2 was only £50 more than the nexus 5 and it has better battery and a ton of features, and is in stock! also although no official android 4.4 as of yet it will hopefully get it eventually, if not then thats what XDA is for.

I don't think you'll have the phone but i'd like to see how the One + One sizes up to the note 3, Galaxy S5, M8, Z2, LG G3.
That is the phone I have my eye on, it is a beast
It'll settle the score and seeing as it costs less than half the price of the others too.

I don't think you'll have the phone but i'd like to see how the One + One sizes up to the note 3, Galaxy S5, M8, Z2, LG G3.
That is the phone I have my eye on, it is a beast
It'll settle the score and seeing as it costs less than half the price of the others too.
EDIT: Just found it

Yea i've seen a lot from the Nexus 5 , you can thank the light OS for that, but then again, the One + One is running Cyanogen mod out of the box, and this bench is from the Stock phone which isn't half bad seeing that if you did the same with a stock N5 you would get substantially less, in fact irc the N5 got some very low benches on antutu out of the box, custom kernels soon sorted that out though.
The 1+1 oc'd would be ridiculous.

It's a hell of a System! Hope it will be ported to Nexus 5! And i'll get rid of my Xperiz Z1 and never come to Sony! :Sadly
Just watched all of the review and did lots of research, and I have just fallen in love with it...
It's half the price of Z1 and has crazy awesome HW, I'm gonna trade in my Z1 for $2800 HKD then get the OnePlus One for $2700 HKD OMG.
Sorry Xperia, the time that I leave you has finally come. Gonna get my first non-Sony Phone

I'm guessing it'll be ported all over, but for the proper experience it has to be on the one+one. Such a good phone man.

It's definitely worth the price, they've already got their OS, which means that all the crazy (supposed) research that goes into making the likes of touchwiz or sense is absent, so not too much spent there, I don't think there's any real advertising going on so there's a good few quid saved, no head phones or charger (i think) just a USB cable, all these things that they've held back on means that they can afford to sell it for less.
Samsung and Apple have got something to seriously worry about as every single flagship has been beaten at the same time by one unheard of device from nowhere, lol i think it's brilliant.
Can't wait to get one.
Apparently it's only on offer via invitation and the smash it lottery, but May should see it being launched all over. Think i'll be flogging my Z1 for £250 quid and putting another £20 for it.
Custom roms, themes and icons out of the box, perfect.
My 30th birthday is approaching and my fiance knows how much I wanted this phone. She also knows I've been saving money for our wedding expenses and decided to surprise me by purchasing the phone for me! She is simply the BEST!
Oh, and Sony has a sale in the U.S. this week, plus a student discount that made the purchase a little less painful. I can hardly wait for it to arrive! This will be my first flagship phone since the original HTC Hero in 2009. I've been putting up with mid-range phones with mid-range performance ever since.
