Apologies for the noobish question, I've searched the forums and googled etc.. and not found the answer to my question...
This is my first Android phone, so I'm still getting my head around how things work - quite a few major apps are not compatible with the XZ, is this just because it's a new phone and apps need to be adjusted to work with new handsets? And if so, how long does it take in general for an app to be made compatible? (eg. Angry Birds Star Wars which is a huge game, isn't compatible, I assume this will change in the near future?)
I know it is possible to download programs to bypass incompatibilities, but I don't want to jailbreak (or whatever you fancy Android types call it) my phone just yet.
Sorry if this is a dumb question/answered somewhere else and I'm being totally blind - please lock the thread if so!

Did not know that, thanks. Is this a general update that needs to be done by Google, or do we have to wait until every developper updates their app to 1080p resolution?

No it's not Google's problem. We will all have to wait for the app to be updated by the developer.
So there is no ETA. I wanted to play NFS Most Wanted but couldn't

another incompatible apps
hi guy, WECHAT, i tried downloading in both my wife and mine xperia z. It works fine in normal messaging but once voice chatting is involved, the apps sometimes stop responding, and the mic fails. only when turning the speaker on the mic works fine. Need to restart the phone then everything is normal.

Waiting for Angry Birds Star Wars, NFS MW, Plants vs Zombies, Candy Crush Saga and Tapatalk HD... :fingers-crossed:
I don't hold too much hope for the EA games though as NFS Shift & Plants vs Zombies still aren't compatible with my 18 month old Sony Tablet S

You mean the Sony Select app? For some reason that app doens't let you search for apps, so it isn't that useful, unless I'm wrong of course.

NOt sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I don't have such app on my XZ. When I look for it in the Play store, I can find an official PlayStation app, but this just seems to be an info app to promote games for PS2/PSP.
The app "ChatON" is also incompatible it says on google play/store. But thatsnot true, beouse if you downlaod the apk file an dcopyed to the phone then you are able to install it and use it as normal, so strange that its says incompatibel in google's app store. Im now runing the ChatON newest version, I love this app as me and all my friends use it as they have S3 mobiles. Im the first now that have got the sony xperia Z. My first inpresson will come later in a post I can write it in if I find a section to write my first impresion in.
Candy Crush Saga is also listed as incompatible on the Play Store. But if you download and install the apk, it works fine.

Hi,
time ago I have buyed the medievil game on the ps store on my xperia s. Now I have seen that xperia z1 is playstation certified, but in the playstation store I can't find the psx games that were in xperia s.
The PS store has morphed into a collection of sub par third party apps/games. I remember it on the S as well and while the selection was limited, at least the games were PS titles.
