The screenshot is now a standard Android function.  hold the power and volume down buttons at same time.

I HATE the flashing of the keyboard when typing even on this forum using any browser...including Chrome.

The flickering of screens means merry christmas. And no app2sd support meanse Happy New Year....

Sidelight for Xperia: nice of them to supply it, I guess. Too bad it doesn't work. Also seeing slow shutdown and flickering keyboard. May just switch back to Google Keyboard. Did, however, drop Google Calendar and go back to the Xperia version. The Kit Kat Email is still Far Superior. Too bad Google hasn't unbundled it.

All in all, quite happy with this update and any update. Now if only my NSZ-GS8 would be blessed with Jelly Bean.

Hmm. It corrected WisePilot to sidelight...

The Default mail application does not seem to show the personal folders that are created any more.. I use the app for my Yahoo account, and have private folders created that was visible on the mail app. With new version it is not accessible anymore. I can only see the standard folders ( inbox, drafts, outbox, trash, sent items etc) Anyoine know how to get the private folders visible in the default mail app ?

Really annoyed now.. After couple of reboots and deletion and recreation of accounts, it has finally showed up all the folders on the default mail app....Can't really put my finger on what cleared the issue...Anyway issue sorted..

Not a bug, but I too miss my four personal short cut icons on the top left of every screen. Sony has gone all Vanilla flavoured. Well at least they gave us an innovative flickering screen.

Anybody else having compass issues? In two separate apps, the compass moves but is never correct and as I rotate tablet 360 degrees it never rotates all 360. Instead it ambles between 250 or so and 350 or so. I tried this sitting on a counter right next to my Nexus 5 running same app which worked as expected.

Also GPS can take a *really long time* to get a fix.

Keyboard flicker - annoying indeed! However I reckon it relates to Autocomplete or Search Suggestions function - there must be some kind of a script initiated when it happens.

If you turn it off, flicker disappears. At least it worked for me okay.

I can't even update my tab - did everything as I was supposed to (via cable) then computer said the tablet was disconnected and update had failed. So, I tried again but now my tablet won't turn on and just keeps starting up, displaying an update error screen then turning off. I have no tablet now, nevermind updated software! Can anyone help?
