This is strange, because on the XA Ultra and on the XA1 Ultra there is a double-tap disabling screen ... Why was it convenient to cut a function ...?

Dchusovitin @ 02/23/2018, 15:41

And he began to bother the fingerprint scanner, because while I take the phone out of my trouser pocket, it starts to work and less often it happens that after the imprint is blocked and you need to enter a pin. Or else have a phone =)

The fingerprint scanner really pisses me off, I carry it now in the winter in my jacket pocket, and my hands are warming there. So he constantly vibrates that he could not recognize and then will require a password

dchusovitinand you do not have false clicks on the edges of the screen? When you simply * firmly * hold the phone and a piece of skin on your finger clicks anything on the screen

On battery - with normal use, without tin - 7 hours of screen, which is still a record among my phones

From what is really not enough here, but what is correctable in the future is a double tap, a button back to the right and always on display (although it’s not amoleed, despite the fact that black is really black here, so the battery will eat kapets). And Google camera, which, although it works, but HDR + does not work. In other words, not enough root :)

Yes, sometimes I noticed.

[ssm2007]

intome,I have to grieve you, the inclusion of a double tapu screen will never happen. Turning off the screen by double tapu is there now, in the settings of the launcher. And the inclusion was never in the ha series, now even the flagship does not have this. Ruth will not save it, since this function must be laid in the core. Very few craftsmen even on XDA who can insert double-tap off into the core, no one will bother with the middle shovel, Now even root on new androids is only possible with unlocking the boot (with the loss of the dpm keys). So get used to it without double tapas.

ssm2007,I miss him only in the context of the fact that he was on the past phone. It is better without it, because it will not unlock at any time in your pocket, as it did on LG a thousand times. But I’ll go on shutdown, completely forget what it is in all Nova launchers

     • at4times the range (devices can communicate at a distance240m vs 60 m on Bluetooth 4.2, but this number does not take into account obstacles weakening the signal - walls, Wi-Fi ...);
       
     • at2times the data transfer rate (up to2Mbit / s, which provides even better quality of wireless sound, but it is obvious that the speed is higher than the range, and vice versa);
       
     • at8times the bandwidth;
       
     • All audio devices communicate via Bluetooth Low Energy (meaning lower power consumption and longer battery life)

     • screen capture (screenshot) :
       
       
       
       Through the "native" file manager, it is not difficult to find the location of the file with a screenshot:
       
       It is located in the internal memory in the folderScreenshots which in turn is formed inside the folder Pictures ;
       
       
     • forced reboot (reset) :
       
       
     • forced shutdown :
       
     
     
  2. On the off smartphone:
     
     • reset to factory settings (hard reset, factory reset):
       
       
     • boot into recovery mode :
       
       This key combination works under the condition that the softwarepresent Recovery.
       

  
  
• Service codes

  Intendedto access hidden model information.
  Enter in the dialer ("dialer") characters and numbers in a certain sequence:
  

  *#06# пїЅ view IMEI numbers
  
  
  
  *#07# пїЅ view certificates
  
  
  
  *#*#7378423#*#* пїЅ loading in the Service menu
  
  
  *#*#4636#*#* пїЅ Download in the "Verify" menu (like on the smartphone from the brand , it would seem nothing to do with Sony Xperia not having)
  
  
  *#*#225#*#* - calendar information
  
  
  
  *#*#426#*#* - Google Play services
  
  

  
  The code will automatically run as soon as the last character is entered.

  2. Using the app "Support "in the" Settings "menu:
     
     • reboot reminder
       
       
       
     • removal of rarely used (long-unused) third-party applications
       
     
     
  3. Viabuiltapplications "AVG Protection Pro "(program will have to purchase, subscribe):
     
     • "cleaning" of RAM, unnecessary files ...
       
       
     • As you can see, for deep (and automatic) cleaning, you need to download and buy the application separately.AVG Cleaner (but it is not worth , as for these purposes there are the best third-party applications).
     
     
  4. "Manual" cleaningcache applications:
     
     
     
  5. Transfermultimedia files (and only them!) to a removable SD memory card:
     
     
     
  6. Closing running applications:
     
     
     
• Hidden games

  Like many modern smartphones (and tablets), this model also has surprises.
  

  1. Easter egg Oreo - octopus about 8 tentacles:
     
     
     
  2. Easter egg Pie - a huge letter P psychedelic color circles:
     
     • activation - similar to the previous one;
       
     • plot - changing the size of the logo or experimenting with a palette of circles by pressing the "back" button or rotating the screen:
       
       
       
       no mini-games, no extra features.

Well, gentlemen, with the initiative. Less than 5 days, I took out the street 1 time - and already 2 scratches. :( He didn’t drop it, put it on the soft, not even on the table, but on the mat. And not on the screen or the faces, but on the back cover. One is long, about 4 cm, one cm. I think it’s not the last.

[Galec]

intomeI would not worry much. The cover is plastic, it is scratched easily. Changing quickly and on AliExpress will cost a penny.

[intome]

Galec,considering that it is not removable - I would not say that it will be super easy to change. And the quality on Ali will still need to be searched by trial and error

Is there a radio module one or two? More precisely, is it possible to work two sims at the same time?
Just look to the examples of video with different lighting ...

Ev-genythat it is impossible to control it with one hand, while it is also heavy.

I dare to ask, and what device can now be controlled "with one hand"? If a person has paws not like a gorilla, then none.

Yes, and it is not heavy, an ordinary modern smartphone, a dozen grams heavier can, but without direct comparison can never be distinguished (this is how "audiophiles" who think they can distinguish sound through gold wires from copper sound, but in fact sound same).

In size and weight - almost a copy of the previous LG, a little more than Galaxy Note 4, well, less than previous generation Xperia XA.
The only trouble (for me) is that it is like soap, despite the sharp corners. Of course, not a soap like an iPhone or Galaxy, but nonetheless. Solved by buying a silicone case.

Regarding distortion - nonsense, there is no distortion on the main camera (unlike S7 and S8), it is not on the front-facing camera either. There is a wide-angle front-end, but on my LG V10 it was also at a wide angle, so this is not news.
Yes, the camera itself is not very, primarily because of the software. Solved by Google camera, especially when it will be possible to enable HDR +

Phone is great, anyway. If you just need a smartphone for the Internet, YouTube, instagram and twitter (without many hours of playing tanks), which lives 6-7 hours of the screen - then the phone is good. Maybe not for 30t, but if there is an opportunity to buy cheaper (or when it falls in price in a couple of months), then I see no reason not to buy.
Especially against the background of the new Sony XZ2 and XZ2 Compact smartphones on the MWC, which are more like HTC two years ago - the XA2 Ultra is the last stronghold of normal Sony smartphones

I agree with intome,I also like the phone and am completely satisfied. The weight is not particularly noticeable (before it was 50 g lighter), I can use it normally with one hand (I used to, and my fingers are long).
To the battery, the screen (with a slight nuance in my copy, wrote above in the subject) and other no complaints.

I took this device, because it did not have this wretched (in my opinion) home button. And the design is "strict", not the same copy-paste from iPhone.
I also considered Xiaomi mostly, but either the screen is small, or the device is already too old, or there is no NFC (which is important for me, because sometimes I have a tendency to lose a bank. Card during a party, and so there are always two payment methods).

I chose 2-3 months, I could not decide, but as soon as I saw that the phone went on sale I immediately bought it.

I bought the phone a couple of days ago, I like everything very much, except for the screen brightness sensor, it constantly turns off the screen. Does everyone also work?

Settings-screen-control backlight
Is it off there? If yes and the screen timeout is big - then it is strange that the backlight turns off

payman,
With super hardcore use (streaming music via bluetooth, YouTube, i.browser, Twitter, Instagram, constant correspondence in the telegram) with a constant connection of 4G + out 6 hours of screen

In the auto settings, the brightness is turned on and with it just the phone constantly puts the backlight to minimum ((

Of course, I understand that synthetics are synthetics, but still: how many are in Antutu?

And how is it with NFC? I do not understand much in mifare modifications, but does it read the “troika” for example? And one-time tickets? All the rest?

Posted 03/04/2018 12:17 PM:

serge002, any applications, there is no charge? The light sensor is not stuck and not closed? Did you reset the settings with all the wipes? (Do not forget to log out of your Google account if you drop)

Reads (shows the balance) and you can record tickets for the Troika. Bank card number reads (for NFC of course). As far as I remember from the previous device, everyone reads the usual tickets, but the Troika does not, because Not all controllers work with this modification. So it should work, but did not try, because I do not use them.
