Z3 gyroscope jumpy - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm experiencing this when using my Z3 with my Cardboard: I hold my head still but the view jumps around a bit. Very disturbing when using it. I tested gyroscope with service menu, here everything is fine. When I test with Z Device Test, there is clearly detected "movement", although the phone is laying on a table.
https://youtu.be/kIAxHLtfjCE
Anyone experiencing the same?
Sony Xperia Z3 D6603 16GB
Stock 5.1.1 rooted with Xposed Framework

I experience the same. I dont know if this is a software or a hardware problem. I only use my cardboard for 3D movies now. Cant play VR contents because of this problem. I own a D6653 btw.

That ain't good at all
I honestly suggest you to bring your phone to a (Sony) Service Center and have them fix it. It doesn't seem like a regular problem...
Well, perhaps u could wait for a few more answers (I don't recommend you to wait longer than another week), but if no-one knows the problem, definitely go to a Sony Service Center!!
thanks for reply but i rooted it using bin4ry's script should i unroot it first using his script again?also hve u tried shadowgun dead zone?mutany roadkill also lags but max payne and amazing spiderman work with playable framerates
I have the same problem with Shadowguns Multiplayer... textures flicks...and is unplayable
Then connect your phone wid pc companion and repair your set
Your set now unrooted again

reflash your phone and see if issue persists. This does look like a hardware problem though

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?

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?

The main problem is that 50% of ppls not having this issue (donno what type of SKIN they have) so we cant do **** . Did u compare ur Xperia L's touch screen with other low end phones ? Xperia L has worst touch screen compare to Samsung S advance , ACE + , Xperia M , TIPO , Xperia J
I just hope its not hardware issue

#Cot88: I have been updated my phone today and now it is 15.0.A.1.31 (android 4.1.2) and I'm also having the touch issue with games and sometimes in general. I can play fruit ninja normally but games like Batman and Dead Trigger didn't work well. I mean, in game, I can't walk and aim at the same time. What you mean I have to do, is reset my phone? Are you sure? Hope you can answer me, and I already gave you a kudo

Xperia M2 (Any Model) Is it Safe to Flash Alternative Firmware?

So say you have D2306 model and you flash D2303 or D2305 etc. These are the different regions. Are there files that matter? Can you just pick and choose or is it just customization?
I couldn't find this Q here or via internet searching. (there are probably 50 ways of phrasing it).
I'm not marking this just as a question, I'd prefer discussion. It may not be cut and clean so discussion is better.
This post gives some detail, it looks like cross-flashing like that is a bad idea:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54431237&postcount=2
?? D2306, D2303 and so on are different phones with different HW. You do NOT want to install their ROM.
Unless I've gotten the models wrong, they are the exact same phone, but with different firmware belonging to their respective regions. I have the D2306.

I had to check what's the D2306. I think it is like a D2303 using different band frequencies:
http://dl-developer.sonymobile.com/documentation/whitepapers/Xperia_M2_D2303_D2305_D2306_WP_14.pdf
Which means the difference should go down straight to the kernel. Then there are the dual SIM model and the no LTE one. You sure don't want to install their ROM. In all cases you may end up not being able to connect the the phone network.
What you may install are the ROM for your D2306 from other countries/providers (this in case you want the latest update). Although personally I wouldn't bother. It may mess up with future updates (if any). Although, yeah, you can always update the phone again manually. Still I'd rather wait few days and the update should arrive.
I think the only possible capable flashes are flashing D2303 on D2403 and D2306 on D2406, as (IMO) they are quite similar, only the screen was the biggest change I think. (Well, at least Stock M2 Rom worked fine on my M2 Aqua.)

As far as I know they have a different frontal camera. With the Aqua models having more many more pixels. Did you check if it worked?
I actually haven't tested it, I flashed it only for root purposes (following the root with TA backup guide). I only know Aqua has a VGA frontal camera. (It actually is the same, as I check it in Sony website.)
Sent from my D2403 using XDA Free mobile app
Yeah that confused me too, I've seen Aqua has both VGA and 1 or 2 MP front camera. It's confusing.
So you flashed normal M2 ROM on Aqua? No problems so far? If the front camera works fine...I may try it.
Well, I'm already back to stock M2 Aqua ROM, but 4.3 ROM of M2 seemed to work quite well on M2 Aqua.
Aqua new update on single sim M2 seems to be working fine. I haven't noticed any problems - including the cameras.
You get a message saying don't forget to close the flaps for waterproofing, and your computer says it's Aqua...otherwise all OK so far.

So it's even backwards compatible? Nice! I thought only M2 ROM on M2 Aqua was possible, not M2 Aqua ROM on M2.
The message can be disabled easily, and about PC and Aqua... Well, it's Aqua ROM, isn't it?
Good share anyway!

I can't see a difference. I don't think software can do that anyway, it has to be upgraded hardware!
I also seen lots of adverts saying the Aqua has an upgraded front camera. But the official Sony page currently says VGA (or similar). Meh.

Well, I asked because on my previous junky Samsung phone we could raise the resolution of the camera while taking video using the LG camera app.
Still this is confusing. Some sites report that the frontal camera of the M2 Aqua is 1.2 MP:
http://www.cnet.com/news/to-tip-or-not-to-tip-drivers-that-is-ubers-question/
But Sony talks about VGA indeed. Although I am not sure what VGA means anymore. It started with 1024*768 I think.

Manual Camera Controls in Nougat?

Is there any info,do we get new camera in Nougat,like a XZ and XP with full manual controls?
while it is mentioned in the latest video posted by sony xperia team, i don't really think it is going to be included for z5 (although our devices are equipped with the same sensor). At least, there's no announcement or indication that it is going to be included.

We don't know. Chances are no one will know. But so far other devices that got the update also got these features. There are no reason to think they're not going to be included.
