Hello.
This guide will(, when it is completed) explain what you need to to to get all the issues with the Xperia Z fixed.
The end result will be a properly working phone running the newest official firmware.
Before we begin, i would like to suggest a better alternative.
The Xperia Z is considered a legacy device by Sony now. There are quite a few hardware features missing compared to previous and newer sony models. Not everything can be fixed with software unfortunately.
The best thing you could do right now is replace your Z with a Z5. If the Z5 is too pricey the Z3 is also a great choice.
Now then if you still want to fix up your Xperia Z keep reading.
problems that cannot be fixed:
ANT+ (the chipset does not have ANT hardware)
Manual camera controls
Advanced display calibration through Kcal
Problems that can be fixed but require hardware:
Display quality: Replacing the factory plastic screen foil with hardened glass protector will improve the clarity and color quality
Battery life: Replacing the battery with a new one.
Waterproofing on ports: Replacing the port covers with new ones.
Provider connection and quality issues: Replacing the simcard with a new one
Problems that can be fixed in software:
wifi
Standby time
Screen on time
Temperature of the phone
Performance
Camera quality
rotation issues
proximity issues
GPS issues
More to come soon
