Z1 Problems

[gino76ph]

Hi there!

Was at a phone shop earlier this afternoon afternoon and there I was comparing the new HTC One M8, Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5 and the Xperia Z1 side by side. For some reason I fell in love with the Z1. Why? It was just the right size (5" screen), its very light, build quality seem topnotch, audio quality (with my headphones) was near amazing, camera quality seem excellent and it was quite fluid and performance seem spot on.

But I want to ask about the curreent 4.4.2 update and other issues.

1. There seem to be no "Stop All" option as regards stopping all apps in thr multitasking button

2. Heard of intermittent wifi disconnections and this problem of wifi signal getting significantly weak even at a not-so distance

3. Camera placment is just wrong. You have a 99.99% chance you will cover it when taking a photo

4. Speaker sound still sounded muffled because of this wtaerproof thing.

Any comments please? Thnks.

There is no other flaps that i can see.

As i mentioned before i have noticed a recurring symptom: the phone freezes for no apparent reason.

Also, as i charge the phone (this is between 10%-20%) the wifi keeps disconnecting. 

Why all these issues suddenly keep coming up?

Kitkat Update 4.4.4 "Low Battery / Connect Your Charger" Notification Loop Problem when charging below the 15% and 5%, 1% battery levels. 

Hello! Can anyone else confim if they are encountering the same issue?

I seem to be having problems when I recently upgraded to Android 4.4.4 via OTA (Over The Air).

When I am charging below 1%, 5% and 15%, and my battery level hits the said levels, the "Low Battery" warning pops up continuously. Because of this, the charge is being drained faster than it's being charged, so I can't charge past those levels. If I leave it charging as is, and the notification loop happens, the battery would be drained to 0.

As a workaround, I have to charge while the phone is turned off, just to get past those levels. After which I can then turn the phone on again and charging would be OK. (I've also noticed that battery life got shorter too, and charging time got longer after the update).

Anyone from Sony support, please confirm if there is such a bug.

Below are my phone info:

Xperia Z1 Model C6903

Android version 4.4.4

Build number 14.4.A.0.108

Kernel version 3.4.0-perf-g0109737

Thanks!

I've determined the problem; My charger is now faulty.

All of a sudden, and a reboot hasnt cured this, my USB tethering has stopped working. Use to be fine, plug it in, turn on USB tethering, and boom im in business.

Now when i clock to enable USB tethering, a force closer error saying "settings has force closed" (something like that) comes up. USB tethering never enables. The right drivers are installed (not that this mattered before)....i dont know what is going on and need this to work. Thanks.
