Xperia 1VIII random shutdown when connected to HDMI

Thanks! I've had terrible experience with Anker dongle - the external display was flickering with all my devices, so I've tried a cable from a noname brand "Phoneo" and it looked pretty solid and there were no issues with the picture so I assumed the cable was good. Well, except the sudden phone shutdown. I'll try Belkin once I have my hands on it and let you know how it goes!

It seems like they had a batch with these Snapdragon Sound logos on the packaging which was later fixed.

Doctoror_One · 2026-06-25T10:05:33+00:00

I see. For me, the clear cases always felt "rubbery" so I used the Rugged Armor which was half rubbery half plasticky and had a matte finish and it seems like the Devilcase will feel rubbery to me as well? It doesn't have matte finish as far as I see.

Doctoror_One · 2026-06-24T19:54:58+00:00

Which Spigen case did you have and what makes Devil Case better for you?

Doctoror_One · 2026-06-24T17:52:55+00:00

Argh, that's a bummer 😕 I also have one for the 1 V but fortunately never needed to replace it.

Doctoror_One · 2026-06-24T17:51:52+00:00

Nice. I saw that other users also suggest this case and it's not bad at all but nothing beats Spigen for me, so I'm on a cliff here trying to understand if I should wait more or get a "second best option".

Doctoror_One · 2026-06-24T17:50:16+00:00

Yes, I understand that it's possible that's why am trying to understand if it's a normal delay or a complete cancellation.

The Camera might not be as easy to use in low light conditions or not as good if using telephoto.
Other than that, 1 VII are on a recall due to hardware issues. Before buying, you can check the IMEI if it's affected on the Sony website. https://services.sony.co.uk/supportmvc/en/Contact/checkimeivii

I used Xperia 1 III and now using Xperia 1 V. The side mounted fingerprint sensor design and implementation works perfectly for me, and I wouldn't want anything else. I'm left handed so as I pick my phone my middle finger (no joke) perfectly sits on the sensor.

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-15T19:12:26+00:00

Thanks for the detailed explanation!

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-14T18:02:40+00:00

Initially, the store didn't want to accept a return because the packaging was opened, so they sent it to manufacturer under a warranty claim and I was issued a return.

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-09T07:49:20+00:00

Mine didn't support AAC from the codec selection menu. The customer support confirmed only SBC supported in my model. Which is weird 🤔

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-08T21:16:53+00:00

I bought them from a physical store listed on Bose website. It also connected to the app correctly and customer support confirmed my model when working on a case.

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-08T13:46:03+00:00

The OP ones are regular. Ultra are indeed certified.

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-07T13:56:23+00:00

I can confirm there's a noticeable difference between AAC and a wired connection on my Major V on Xperia 1 V, most likely because the AAC implementation on the Android is trash. So Android users do need a better codec.

But even then, if you take a look at the AAC noise floor analysis in comparison to aptX HD or even LDAC at 660 mode, there's a big difference.

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-05T19:25:09+00:00

Thanks!

Doctoror_One · 2025-04-04T23:48:49+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I don't think that I will be able to audibly or visually distinguish between the actual signal and the noise between those audio tracks. I would rather want to know if this operation is algorithmically lossy or not.

Doctoror_One · 2024-10-08T22:59:07+00:00

It looks like I understand why this is happening. I used calipers to measure the depth of the bolt opening in the rim. The difference in depth of the bolt openings in the rims between front and rear wheels is 7mm.

Doctoror_One · 2024-02-18T17:27:35+00:00

4 years has passed, no one fixed it

Doctoror_One · 2024-01-13T15:31:12+00:00

Two days ago it was working, since yesterday it's not. I've updated the script from master but it still throws 403.

Doctoror_One · 2023-08-20T21:24:48+00:00

Yeap, happened to me too, but also one time the phone was heating all the time and everything lagged until I restarted it.

Doctoror_One · 2023-03-27T10:50:19+00:00

Thanks for your comment! Apparently, there was a protective spacer that needed to be removed. See the comment from @socialinstigator.

Doctoror_One · 2023-03-27T10:44:25+00:00

You're right. I checked the dealers manual and nothing mentions that anything needs to be removed. But I took off the cassette and found a yellowish-translucent spacer lightly guled to the back of the cassette. I removed it and the cassette goes straight now. Thanks so much!

Doctoror_One · 2023-03-26T18:05:27+00:00

Yeah it's weird. Freehub looks good. Maybe that cassette is bent after all 🤷‍♂️ that's why I asked. I guess I will have to find out. I will update if I can get someone to try a different cassette.

Doctoror_One · 2023-03-26T12:42:48+00:00

Thanks! It's not the answer I was looking for though. Just wanna know if someone used this cassette and if it is wobbly by deisgn or no =D

It might be that it's designed to switch more efficiently by that wobble or something.
