[Q] February 20th U.S. announcement? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I think its very possible it will be announced for the U.S. market along side the ps4 announcement on that day showing off the integration between the two with nfc and maybe as a second screen

Don't get your hopes up! Sony mobile US sucks

Perhaps the ZL will be announced for Canada as well..... The more I have to wait for this phone, the more I am willing to just wait around for the SGS4 or Optimus G Pro

why would they announce it at a playstation event (i know that the xperia z is ps certified)? it would make more sense if they do that MWC.

Is it normal to not get earphones with Nexus phones? First smart phone I've ever ordered that didn't come with them.

I did not see any headphones listed. It has a standard port though so I am sure you must have some around.

a 299 smart phone with no contract has to cut corners somewhere.. I can deal with no headphones
The only phone I ever had (besides iPhone) that came with headphones was the GSIII and I only kept that for about a week.
I too can live without, but yes, it would be a nice addition

Google Wallet

Anyone know if the Sprint version will support Google wallet out of the box?

I think this might not be a Sprint thing, but instead a Google Wallet app issue. Might be because the phone is so new and may not have passed testing yet. I would expect an update to fix this soon.

I hope so. IMO I think its a nice feature. I've used it on my Nexus7 but it just feels weird using it for purchases because its a tablet. I just want to see the wtf expressions on people's faces.

And i can confirm that it is a sprint side issue not phone. Sprint doesnt officially support wallet..

It's funny you say that. Every time I go into a 7-Eleven or McDonald's, I whip out my phone and pay with Google Wallet, and every single time the person behind the counter is like, "What'd you just do? Did you just pay with your phone? How'd you do that? Yaddie Yaddie Ya"
Blowing people's mind...
Ya, its worked fine on my evo lte and s3 forever. Sprint does not block it so I'm sure a simple build.prop edit would get it working until they get the device supported

They do block it on their end just like after the evo lte came out it worked then they blocked it for about a month then unblocked it.

If you guys pm me the build.prop from the note 2 and the htc one ill fix it up. It should work just fine with a couple edits if your rooted.

Can't the app be side loaded or is there also a device check in the app?

I got wallet working on viper Rom. Working on thread in app section but need a build.prop from a stock rooted using the wp fix kernel. Some pm me if you have it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
sure hope a support is granted fairly soon. i used google wallet all the time with evo lte and i'm missing it quite a bit. according to a sprint rep i spoke with prior to purchasing the htc one, it will be supported so it's only a matter of time.
if not within a timely fashion, i guess a mod to the build.prop should suffice. i remember doing this when the evo lte wasn't officially supported.

You can sign up multiple accounts, and you have a much higher chance to win a $5 code if you do so.

List of games that support the Dualshock 3 controller?

I've seen some videos showing GTA III and Vice City running on the Z using native Dualshock support. However, is there any list somewhere that compiles all games that support this feature?
I'm also looking for a good list, but for now I found that the gameklip page show a page of controller compatible games.
I have a list but I can only share it on Monday

UK pre order

Preordering from Samsung directly puts shipping date at the 10th of July! And from the other approved vendors they don't even give a ship date. I don't understand how they are launching it on the 4th but will ship it a week later. Kinda takes the piss really.

Some of the PC World stores may have them. I was told by the Salisbury branch that Portsmouth, Newbury, Heathrow and a few others may have them. I ended up ordering from John Lewis to collect in my local store tomorrow with 3 years warranty.
Pc world are allowing you to reserve through the website. Also save £25 with o2 priority moments app.

So you got the better snapdragon chipset in your model. Should run slightly better than the wifi only models
