Xperia 10 III Problems

[adpalcz]

Still a terrible green tint when display backlight is set low. Method with YouTube and max-to-min backlight helps only until next screen-off.

2 phones, both running Android 11 62.0.A.3.109 (supposedly should have been fixed two updates ago... guess what)

Still no function for disabling the cover sensor.

The phone is unusable with magnetic holders or covers! Well done, Sony. Seems like my last Sony phone.

Hey, have you tried a software repair via Xperia Companion?

[adpalcz]

Yes I have. No effect on either phone. Waste of time.

Hi there,

What happens exactly with your phone with covers and magnetic holders?

[adpalcz]

Depending on where the cover's/holder's magnet is placed, the phone turns the screen off and does not allow to turn it on again until the phone is removed from the cover/holder.

It's obvious one can't guarantee compatibility with "all" third party products, but in this case an option to disable the phone's magnetic sensor would work for most. Some manufacturers have implemented this option long ago.

Yeah, and as long as the device is working fine without the case, they will probably do nothing about it.

But we can send our feedback to them, maybe considering it in the future.

62.0.A.3.131 has solved the green tint problem.

One down, one to go.
