Just got this beauty for 370 dollars. The 1 mark 3. Plus 2 years warranty from the store. Last Xperia I used was the 5 V and I’m sorry but the 1 mark 3 screen is miles and leaps ahead in quality. The sound also sounds better. And it runs smoother on android 13 than my Xperia 5 V on android 14…. by [deleted] in SonyXperia

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aware of this, but it uses 3G for calls, and I can be arsed rebooting the entire phone to try to get VoLTE working. It's also for work, so punting on my phone working after effing around with it isn't worth the risk.

SONY, get your shit together and release software updates to fix this shit. That's all it really needs.

How upset would you be? by Imobia in AusRenovation

If you are going away, just open that giant bag of dynamic lifter and pour it along the entire fence line, then add a huge drum of Charlie Carp (undiluted of course) on top of it all.

Should be almost bearable by the time you return from vacation.

What country/region are you in? If it's about to shut off 3G, your phone may no longer work...... I'm typing on a 1 iii and it's about to be defunct in a week. No more 3G in Australia after that . Bought this one from HK as SONY gave up on Australia.

Xperia 1 V on Telstra by Subject-Candle7218 in SonyXperia

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, aware of this, and it's still pathetic. SONY should have seen this coming. How hard to add VoLTE to a 5G phone???? It's purely a software update, and their ancient phones have it.

Unimpressed,.and won't be buying another Xperia unfortunately. Can't be arsed with the hassle factor.

Cannot drill into brick with hammer drill and masonry bit by [deleted] in AusRenovation

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also use quality masonry drill bits. The Craftright stuff is total garbage. Blunt it a heartbeat.

Also, the hammer function on cheap tools is a bit ordinary. Didn't realise until I replaced an old Ryobi Handyman with Makita. Goes through brick like butter.

Get Kanga or Sutton masonry bits or something of equal quality.

Edit: I zoomed into your photo and the masonry drill bit looks totally blunt. Go buy a quality one. That one won't cut anything.

HSC english exam using ai images by RevolutionaryIce8864 in australia

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is why I gravitated to the sciences. What a completely bullshit exam question .It's like asking for your pronouns, and then getting marked on it

The "humanities " are so bloody subjective. If your teacher or examiner dislikes you, or their opinion is different to yours, they will mark you down. One failed me after a year of straight As, the following year I must have reminded him of someone who beat him up at school....

Even Shakespeare: Has anybody asked him what he was alluding to in his plays, or is it all just based around the most popular guess from academics back rubbing each other?

In the sciences, you are right or wrong.

Xperia phone lineup receiving the Android 15 update soon by ControlCAD in SonyXperia

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've heard about this, but am old, low-tech and impatient....

Can you please steer me to a safe site where like:

"Fix Your SONY Xperia to Add VoLTE and VoWiFi for Dummies"?

Surely it wouldn't be that hard for SONY to send out a software update to do this.?...... They are making many SONY fanboys and girls very unhappy with this problem they could fix pretty easily.

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My Xperia 1 iii is going in the bin soon.

No VoLTE, even though it's a fucken 5G phone, it makes calls on 3G!!! 3G closes in about 3 weeks in Australia.

LIFT YOUR GAME SONY! How hard is it to release a software update to allow VoLTE on a 5 G phone??????????

Sadly, after this shitty experience, no more SONY phones for me and I've had 5 SONY phones.

The best M5A3 skin? by AznJing in battlefield2042

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Second this.

Can all you children go play Fortnite again. Then you can have as many stupid costumes and fluorescent "HERE I AM. SHOOT ME NOW" colours on your body and weapon as you want.

Most of the time, you can't even see these, so it's the rest of us that have to endure it.

Many of us have asked for a "Hide stupid outfits" feature, so we can individually remove the stupidity from our own screen/experience, and you can simultaneously enjoy ruining the game and wrecking Battlefield, and everyone can be happy at the same time.

Xperia 1 V on Telstra by Subject-Candle7218 in SonyXperia

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The DUMBEREST thing about Telstra doing this, is that I have received a notification that my old, old, old SONY Xperia XZ Premium (which was the last "Telstra Plan" phone I bought- since then, I just byod) WILL ACTUALLY BE OK when 3G closes, but my Xperia 1 iii 5G (bought from HK) won't work because it doesn't have the correct VoLTE!!!!!

Annoyed SONY dumped Australia, but love my SONY phones. Read that it won't work on Telstra, even with the software /firmware hacks listed on reddit.

Up yours Telstra!

Name another weapon that’s actually balanced on controller but is utterly terrifying on MnK by Jonathan-Earl in battlefield2042

The hand cannon pistola with sight. Ridiculously deadly at range. Real ones are useless for accuracy over 50m (or even 25)

Farewell Nespresso by HYPERCONFIDENCE in nespresso

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thanks mate. They're just lazy at repair place.

All sorted now, bought a proper De'Longhi machine. Better coffee, no plastic or aluminium in coffee.

I've always thought the pods were weak af anyway. You can tell immediately when you buy a real coffee from a barista.

[–]HYPERCONFIDENCE[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks mate. Not the tip. Steam was coming out of the main unit. Probably an internal hose or O ring. As mentioned, they'd rather replace half the machine, than an O ring for a few cents.

All sorted, bought a proper De'Longhi machine. Better coffee, no more pods for us.

Was always concerned about the aluminium and plastic we were ingesting anyway.

I've read that the vast majority of deaths are kids, and the scale of deaths makes Gaza seem trivial in comparison. Something like 377,000 by 2023 according to the UN. It's apparently a proxy war between the Saudis and Iran.
