After being with Metro PCs for lots and lots of years and while having my LG Spirit I was actually disappointed at how there isn't really good dev support for this phone. Oh well, lets hope I can be a good boy and not try to mess with root :D

Is there anything I can do in order to make my Xperia have better quality in darker scenarios? Everytime I take a picture in the dark with flash it always comes out grainy. I don't have any complains about it when it's daytime but once it gets dark or I'm in a dark place, that's when pictures...

Anyone else notice the compass and accelerometer is really erratic on the Xperia Z? I first noticed it when I tried to use Google Sky Map, which was all over the place. Then, I noticed that the compass function on "Smart Tools" was all over the place as well. So I downloaded Z-DeviceTest and...
