and no notification LED anymore
ToFやRGB-IRセンサーだけじゃない! Xperia 1 Vで「初廃止」された機能が判明
ソニーモバイルの最新プレミアムフラッグシップ、Xperia 1 V。国内ではドコモ、au、ソフトバンクからは6月に、そして少し遅れて7月後半にはSIMフリー版もリリースされることが確定しています。一方、このXperia 1 Vですが、これま

It is said that the notification LED lamp has been abolished in Xperia 1 V.
As far as I know, I don't think there has ever been an Xperia without a notification LED lamp, so this may be the first Xperia .
I'm not sure why, but I think it's to reduce production costs.
However, there is no doubt that the production cost will go down even a little by not installing it.
By the way, I think that this notification lamp abolition is not a big problem for users who have used other manufacturers' models that have not been installed.
However, it may be quite inconvenient for users who have used Xperia so far.

yeah I`m bummed no Led Notification, but I still pre-order from BHphoto.com and with the 8 Gen 2 and better night cam, and better thermals, I wish they still had a better color or kept the Purple color, but will have a 30 day return to try it out, hopefully it actually will get released on the July 28th.

Hoorah, another new Xperia to buy....I keep going back to them for the SD card and other reasons I can barely justify.

Coming from an 1 III I really hope there's custom ROMs and development!

better keep dreaming your sweetest dreams 0_o

With Bluetooth 5.3 LE, Low Energy, which supports LC3 and APTX Lossless.
Looking forward to that.

is there any new ringtone/notification sound?

I preordered from Sony. I wish we received the WH-1000XM5 like the UK but we get the linkbuds instead which I will give away. I'll be back in a couple months with feedback.

Does Sony ever have sales on their mobile phones? Any good price drops after xperia IV was released for reference? I know it is discounted now that the V is released, i mean before.
Looking like this will be the best phone of the year but man... thats a lot of money for a phone. It kinda feels morally wrong even though I could afford it.

I've preordered from Sony, but all that's in the box is a setup guide and warranty card

GS2 on Sprint?

Does anyone know if the GS2 will be coming to Sprint and if so, when? I just got a NS4G and I'm considering returning it and saving the upgrade for the GS2
i don't think so
if it does come it will be in a very long time with a CDMA band
just like the Nexus 4G that came at the end of the cycle
Rumor is it will be called the Samsung Galaxy Within or Sprint Within and a late July release date seems to be the general consensus.

Looks like everyone but the U.S. is getting the Samsung Galaxy S II one way or the other and it seems like future owners have been waiting an eternity to get one. Hopefully Sprint will launch its version of the phone in a matter of weeks as what is believed to be called the Galaxy Within has been allegedly pictured above.
As you can see in the comparison shot we've put together below, the basic lines and what appear to be specifications are quite the same. Give or take a couple of details, you still have your eight-megapixel at the back but this time above the flash --which also seems larger -- instead of its left.
The Sprint logo should clear any doubts of the destination for the Within and the side buttons/rockers seem to match. With its 1.2GHz Exynos CPU coupled with 1GB of RAM, 4.3-inch Super AMOLEDPlus screen and a two-megapixel front facing camera, the Galaxy Within would be the EVO 3D's strongest competitor on Sprint. For all of you out there waiting, it should be coming soon -- late July according to rumors -- and with Android 2.3.4 at that!

First week of october for the U.
Wait until tomorrow we might get it.
Sent from my ST25i using xda app-developers app
Seriously if we didn't get update tomorrow or 1sr week of octuber.. I'll sell it.
the topic about ICS for Xperia U is posted for more than 1000 times. Just use the search option.
I took this today in CarPhone Warehouse (biggest phone retailer in the UK), they had the same sign up when I bought my U last week. I imagine they know more than us and ICS is about to be released because otherwise anyone could get them for false advertising (I could return mine for this if I wanted).

I love this phone more than any other I've had. Other than the call thing that was fixed with the first ota the phone has really been flawless for me. That said, I can't wait to see what's next. Take muh muneh

10 million sold and we can't even get a 1,000 people to sign a petition to have their bootloader unlocked (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490930). That's not a force. That's a bunch of spec junkies willing to settle for the status quo.

No amount of signatures will get that to happen. Samsung doesnt care about awhat just 1000 of its users want when there are 10 million who dont care
Even if we got the 1000 signatures that would be .01% of sales (so far)... not even a ripple in the pond...
I know it seems like a big deal to us because we're all here on the forum all the time and the buzz around here is all about hacking and jacking our phones till the early hours of the morning... but... to the vast majority of consumers... non of this means jack squat.
Try joining the galaxy note 3 community on Google +... Over 4200 members... posts flying through there at warp speed... and nobody knows what the he'll I'm talking about when I post screen shots of Safestrap or Hyperdrive or Wanam exposed mods... people still flip out and think they are legally in jeopardy if they root... This phone is causing a mass migration of iPhoners and it's a good and bad thing i suppose... samsung is leaning more towards closed platform where possible to make things dummy proof...(i can't even begin to describe how much that gets on my nerves... iPhone was supposed to be the smartphone... android was the phone for smart people)... but at the same time, with sales the way they are we will see a lot more aftermarket products and accessories... just roll with the punches i guess... it is what it is.

I haven't signed it. I haven't written my request for an unlocked bootloader in a note to Santa Claus either. Equally futile wastes of time. Then again, I just went ahead and bought the one with an unlocked bootloader (Dev Edition), so I guess I'm not willing to settle for the status quo.

Welcome back

Welcome back to @LordManhattan, hope to see you posting again soon.

Screen cracked on the ultra. Really don't know why, always take care of it. Anyway claimed insurance on both of my dead ultras, and got two Z2's. One for me and one for the wife. They arrived yesterday.
I loved that bloody phone, but it was just too early in its adoption. The next gen will be body good, but I couldn't wait.
Gotta say the 20mp Camera is bloody impressive.
But I miss that screen size!

Oy! Thank you! I got sent on a short vacation for a couple of days after I went "a little" overboard, and I totally deserved it. No question about that :laugh: I believe it's known that I have a very short fuse around here, and I do and will explode very easily, which is incredible strange since I'm the least aggressive human being in the west in real life. Let's hope it'll be a while until next time :fingers-crossed:

LOL there is no Oreo for H870S...there is no official planing and news i tred contact with LGE 4 times and all same answers !!!
Plz do contact with LG
plz do spam in instagram page with Oreo
Maybe this change thier idea...
Here is like of my their answer to me :
https://ufile.io/6dllz
Link is for 30 days
What the hell is it with people turning into complete morons because an update is not coming instantly?
Is your Nougat not working? Are there thousands of bugs that require an instant oreo update?
And yes, I am SURE the marketing intern having to read all the "OMG OREO PLZ OR IMA CUT YOU" spam will walk right up to the CEO of LG and tell him "Listen here, buddy.. these people want Oreo, we better get Luis from development to sh*t out a ROM by tomorrow morning".
What's the hell........this will be my first and last LG phone....i was a Sony Lover for the past 12 years..........in terms of update Sony is the best.
give it to me
Same situation as mine, was Sonyboy since 2005, and G6 first and the last non-Sony phone, and we were unpleased with Sony's update speed!
The same for me, Sony since 2011 and Xperia X8. Now G6. Sony was almost always disappointing in terms of update policy and G6 was not so bad when it had 7.0... still hoping for LG to slightly speed up the update process for their phones and keeping my fingers crossed

i had a Xperia SP that was amazing phone best phone i had easy for flash stock and custom roms 2 years updates included minors updates but my big mistake was turning to LG phones very low updates and low customers support...they just want to sell only in all way
I just received the ore update for my LG G6 H870S.
This Forum is transforming into Bobs and Vegena Trash Talk.
These are clearly very emotional reactions.
Few people hold onto a phone these days for more than 2-3 years anyway.
Therefore updates are simply unimportant in the overall usefulness of the phone
Even the security updates in that time span don't make much of a practical difference.
Updates are mostly hype, mostly cosmetic changes, with minor feature updates and under the hood changes that don't really impact people day to day
Mainly they are needed to take advantage of new hardware on the latest models.
When you buy any other electronic device, like a refrigerator or TV, do you expect "updates" for your device?
Do we scream to Westinghouse, "why aren't you sending me new and updated shelves and motors for my fridge every year?"
Time to take a breath, a little perspective
If the phone works well and you can use all the harware features, that would seem to be enough....
