internal SD card and external SD card ...now what are those
external SD is your micro Sd card.
the total phone memory is divided into 2 parts
1) phone memory ( usually 1 gb or less )
2) internal sd card ( remaining memory )
so a typical 4gb phone is divided like this
phone memory - 800 mb
internal sd card - 2.5 gb
before android 4.1 there use to be only phone memory and micro sd card..
so if you installed an app it will install in phone memory and you could move the application data to micro sd card..
app2sd
but after 4.1 google introduced internal sd card.. what it does is fool apps into believing that micro sd card is actually internal sd .. so the apps still install in phone memory but transfer its app data to internal sd card .. so the total app + data still remains in phone memory ... and hence not transferable to micro sd card..
it was just introduce to stop people from transferring there apps to micro sd card..
in simple words its just a partition .. like you have c: and d: in windows..
that's why the app2sd does not work...
so in order to transfer apps to sd card after 4.1 we can only swap sd cards..
so if you have a 4gb phone with 16gb microsd card
before swap
internal phone memory - 800mb
internal sd card - 2.5 gb
external sd card - 12 gb
after swap
internal phone memory - 800 mb
internal sd - 12gb
external sd - 2.5 gb..
so once again it fools apps

Yes, got it from Indiatimes. Packaging was excellent, though the courier (RedExpress) took 3 days for a part which Indiatimes paid to be delivered as "Same Day Delivery" - apart from this minor wait, all in all an excellent package.
Contents are the standard, USB cable + charger, headphone and manuals. Also included a shiny silver colored back panel (worth 1400 as per sticker on the box) , and accidental damage protection from Sony.
In stock it was 4.1,on booting up and connecting to Wifi, within 30 minutes it was updated to 4.2 via OTA. Last week of December it was updated to 4.3 (via pc companion)
Overall, I am pretty satisfied with it - excellent display, nice camera, good wifi reception etc . As others are complaining, my RAM usage never crosses 60%, no shutter slowness while using camera in auto config. Just loving every moment with it

Any one experiencing bluetooth issues in their Z-series phones?
My ZR(C5502) fails to recognize devices!
I don't know if it is a hardware or firmware issue, but upgrading it to 4.3 did not show any improvement.

Generally reading from sd card is faster but writing is slower. So the OP was worried about FullHD recording I guess.
. Is it included with the bill ? the box has no mention of it.

yes I was worried about recording too as it writes at 17MB/s and sandisk ultra is said to be writing only at 12MB/s
@puneet it was written on my box

Puneet, don't worry. Your bill and warranty is sufficient for it There is no separate documentation for ADP

You will need to root your ZL for that.
Not recommended if you do not want to risk bricking your ZL.

Even rooting ZL dosesn't help to move apps to sd. And rooting doesn't brick your phone but flashing and unlocking bootloader does brick your phone.

Rooting does help you in moving the applications to SD card. In fact rooting allows much more than what is accomplished by the conventional applications to SD card. You would need to use Link2SD and a second extx partition on the SD card though.

Is there any way of rooting the most recent ZR official ROM?
