Do the orange or t-mobile handsets come with branded ROMs? I want to get a black unlocked t-mobile Hero but I don't want some daft t-mobile ROM. I saw my friend's T-Mobile Diamond and nearly puked at the colorscheme.
don't worry, the T-mobile one has only got a link to the t-zones page in the browser and a t-mobiel logo on the front.
that ****ty pink colour is nowehere to be seen from what i've heard.
Saw one that a colleauge had bought and convinced me to get mine cos it wasn't really changed any.
Nope, just the start up logo on the Orange is included within the Hero, Android and HTC logos and a few links to Orange World etc that are useful.
Not keen on the black T-Mobile... looks cheap upto the Graphite one on Orange...
Thanks guys. Just bid on an apparently unlocked Orange Graphite Hero. Can't wait
I LOVE THIS PHONE BY ...watching VIDEOS, Specifications, brand, in short in want to buy this phone, but Worried.
Is their any country specific shipment or any production line which have this issue of YELLOW TINT, or it is random occuring anywhere in any Xperia S across the globe....
For example i am in KSA & want to purchase the Xperia S, Now Should i be worried of having a yellow tint ???
what i read from the threads above is most of the people are from Hongkong.
Sony. will replace the screen or not this is different service issue...But why to buy the Phone which has a problem ???
Please suggest.....
MARKUS from Sony Suggest only Some phones have this Issue, Please find below link.

Singapore users have reported the yellow tint issue.
We have the problem with cells in Sweden also...but not me (mine came with .67), could be the first batches...
Mine is from Japan. No tint.

I bought it from Malaysia. It has.
And the bad thing is: sony accepted and and they say that we can get this fixed from sony service center for free but in the same country where you bought it from.
Com'on, I am not going to go to Malaysia back for this from India.
I bought my xperia s in Italy.
I have 0.62 build and yellow tint
Didn't they say some market...from what I see all the markets are effected.
I have HongKong and its effected.
Not even sure what to do.

I got the device on thursday and I haven't got the yellow tint (yet).
It's a German Xperia S,I updated to .73.
It got fairly hot,but I switched it off because I was afraid it might get the yellow tint.
Sweden, yellow tint here
I don´t belive everyone actually can see this this tint. It´s not like my buddies look at the phone and yells about the tint.
If I start opera Next, the lay the phone i landscape i can see the tint even i cold conditions. But, as I said, I bet no one else not aware of the fault would see this
Does it have anything to do with the Version ..??
I have seen several replies mentioning Version of the Phone, does it has anything to do with the Version ?
Try to sort out the group, which can be avoided while purchasing.
If it's make, Version, country, software upgrade, etc.
Even in Bulgaria it has , after 3 weeks usage . Version .62
Croatia - no tint
Build .62

The Netherlands. 12W09 phone has been sent back to sony for repairs.
Singapore version of the phone on .73 Non Rooted Firmware.................purchsed from Negri electronics..........
Forcefully managed to get the battery temperature up to 45 degrees celcius.............Perfect screen and no yellow patches/tints.................so My phone is fine.
Seems certainly its more based on what region it was bought from.........Seems like certain lots had this problem........
Also in UAE
I had a small yellow tint on the top right and the lovely people from JUMBO electronics replaced mine with a new one.
Also I noticed that the first phone and the one replaced had different "covering" at the front camera.... don't know why and the staff at the shop had no answer either.
France import - no yellow tint found after running benchmark. It didn't feel like it got hot though...
Frankly, it is a screen manufacturing issue so the software would not really affect it.
Anyone know where I could get a white Xperia S in Canada (or shipped to, at a reasonable price?)
Sony stores has it for 500 + tax ~ $565 but they don't have white.. (is what I was told by salesman)
So.. I'm looking for somewhere reliable to get a white one (preferably with warranty for a bit, because I'd rather not have a yellow tint/dead pixels), ability to unlock bootloader right now is also a plus
or.. if you're in Canada and you have a white xperia s, where did you get it from?
Let me know please
Thanks,
which part of canada do you live in?
if you live in vancouver then i can recommend you one. otherwise i really dont know will they ever get the white one into canada.
Oh, I'm in Toronto. I think I'll try pacific mall, not sure how they work with warranty though..
Has anyone actually got a Black and Rose Gold Moto Z? I am yet to see one in the wild.
Moto-maker UK doesn't list the Black / Rose Gold variant and the Customer Support team has no idea about it.
I cant even find any on Ebay - whats going on here? Do they even exist?
Thanks!
Up to date it seems to be reserved to Verizon's Droid versions...
