The Xperia J (ST26i) is listed as having a proximity sensor yet it does not seem to work on any of the devices. Does anybody have any idea why this is? software bug?

It's gotta work. I admit it's not the best and it sometimes works like crap, but it works. Just call someone and when that person answers keep your fingers on the upper-right hand side of the screen ( next to the front camera) and the screen will turn off.

Do what your fps will be high!
Open the camera> select video camera mode> choose scene soft snap> va Settings and choose the 176x144 resolution> then choose the resolution hd.
All done without any lag!

In regular camera does not know how to solve, perhaps with some update sony, because even in .36 have this problem. But to take pictures I see no problem, I irritated the filming, most doing what i said fps shooting is the self.
Hello!
I dont think it's a problem but can you tell me what you think about the front camera?
Mine is very bad: it is like it has no colors.

That's normal. The front camera has a VGA resolution, that's why it's bad.

My front camera is also as if no colors, I even asked to exchange the device for it. I have an Xperia U with the same camera and VGA front camera of xu is much better.
I'm hoping to get my new xperia L: p
My came with a defective led down one of the lights does not change color is always white.
But let's wait for the new android 4.2 in xperia z has been released
I think he ought to fix this slow camera and improve the camera front.

guys should i buy the xperia L

I wanted know because I will buy its soon and will it ever have a bootable and full working cyanogen mod and Ive heard about many battery and restarting problems so should I buy this phone and by the way I live in india
We can't predict the future, you know. So we don't know if we'll ever have a stable CM. And your choice depends on what do you want your phone for. If you're a heavy user/gamer, then this phone suits you perfectly. If you like taking photos, you might want to look forward to another phone, since Xperia L has alot of camera issues, such as high exposure on low light and image flicking while recording on indoor enviroinments.

I suggest to wait or save your money for other brands or other models... Xperia L has some issues and even up to now the issue isn't solve. It has been two months since the last update but still no fixes on those crucial ones

1. There is problem with the WiFi what so ever. It's the router/modem.
2. Touch screen sensitivity can can be a problem sometimes while zooming in or out. Otherwise it's good.
3. There are no HW camera issue. Only SW camera issue. So expect them to be resolved in 4.2.2 or 4.3 or CM.
4. I am hearing this for the first time. No mic quality issues. Mic is great according to me.
If you're not convinced about the camera, talk to @shivamk11 and look into his thread!

Ok, thanks, but i watched some video samples from this phone and the sound was not that good which means voices will seem unnatural to the other party im calling.
And what about this memory full issue : http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-L/Device-memory-full-in-xperia-L/td-p/347456
Does it happen to all phones or certain firmwares only ? Is it fixed with 2.17 update ?
I also heard read about restarting due to home screen wallpaper issues, is it true ?
I dunno, this phone seems to have many issues.

That memory issue is one of the biggest bugs on xperia L. If you're planning to root XL, no need it worry as it can be solved.
However, if you're not keen on rooting, there's a decent chance that you could face this problem. & NO, this bug is not fixed with the 2.17 update.
I am currently on 2.17 & still face this problem. Haven't yet faced the restarting problem..
what about battery life can anybody tell me about it?

again, i can respond only regarding non-rooted phones.
For non rooted phones, Just About Average. Lasts just about a day if you're medium user. IF you're a heavy user, be prepared to charge your phones a couple of times a day.
Any other issues we should know of ?

Actually, L's camera is really good, but the new update screwed it up, pictures are really noisy and overexposed in low light. You should see shivamk's topic.

hi guys my last and final doubt is which phone should I buy xperia m or xperia l and does xperia m have much longer life than xperia l because. of older cpu and small screen.

If you are confused between Xperia M and Xperia L ...
Then blindly go for Xperia L .
According to me Xperia L is better in all terms in comparison to Xperia M .
hey guys, after watching xperia l review on youtube on almost every different channel, none other of them complains about touch issue. but when i go to xda, suddenly theres a ton of L user complaining about low senitivity touchscreen issues..
does the touchscreen issue only happens to some people or all L users?

Can't use a pencil on my Xperia Z3

Hi Community,
sorry if this exists anywhere, but I didnt found something in the forum so I'll just ask for it
I heard that the Z3 is able to be used with a pencil.
I just tried this out with the standart draw app from the Xperia Z3 and it didnt worked.
Did I missed an option or something ?
Google don't found something or maybe I'm just too stupid
Thanks for your answers
( Sorry for my bad english )
this works with previous Zs, but not the Z3. I think it has something to do with the new panel supporting glove mode but not pencil operation
I've never heard of that! How did it work on previous models?
work on Z ULTRA and Z2
Not on Z3

Do you think it's possible after a root with some hidden function ?
I bought the Z3 because of that feature that's really dissappointing to me :/
Dangit!
I really wanted this feature in my z3!
You want to draw on your screen using a pencil? Is this serious? Or do you mean like a tablet pen ?

I really don't know how this is possible - I heard that it's possible too.
But Google just don't want to tell me how this is possible :/

[Q] PenMode

Could somebody help me enable pen mode on the Z3?
The touch.scale.pressure is alread below 0.1 :/
Not sure if the z3 has pen mode like other Z models
Glove mode?
I wanted this too. Both on my z2 tablet and z3. But unfortunately its not there.
The z2 phone had pen support and it was awesome I don't understand why they removed it.
Anyways I was hoping someone somehow manages to port it to the z3. I have a stylus which is pretty crap compared a standard pencil. With root I think its possible on z3 so I hope someone finds a way.

I think its more to do with the panel used not software could be wrong

This maybe
http://www.gizmobolt.com/2014/02/21/how-to-enable-pen-mode-on-xperia-z1/
Tried this but no luck.
It does have the clearpad pen file but for some reason it doesn't activate.
I tried manually too changing the 0 to 1 but nope even if i change it to 1 and click save it ends up turning back to 0.

Must be a way. Maybe some Dev will figure it out

Fingerprint trick

Just slide up instead of touching. Works more accurate in my opinion

Certainly, if the backup with Xperia companion would work maybe. many people have problems with the fingerprint so it's software problem in my opinion.
Nah Xperia 1 has a very bad FP sensor, I checked with my old XZ Premium which works very well.
use the little finger does not fail

I got mine working relatively well, when I registered fingerprint the second time (after deleting it) I used to fingers during one registration (index and thumb). I just wanted to see what would happen, now it takes both fingers say... 2/3 times.
