Thanks for all the tips guys for call blocker apps guys, much appreciated
I'm not rooted so I can't use those ones, but I've been looking on the play store and there's absolutely loads of them

that's why I've asked.
IMO, easiest way would be to use mccafe which comes pre installed on your phone. Go to call and sms filter and add in all the numbers you would want to block.
@chirag22ster,
Did you update the phone? I dont know why, when I bought the z1, I also had similar issue. Screen was yellowish, and the viewing angles were good. After a while (i think 1 week or more), it got disappeared. I am not sure if this was due to the update that was released then or just the glue. Do you still have the option of power saving mode under display?

Sorry, I didnt get you? I am using the screen adaptor and it seems to be working fine. Dunno what to do?
So you tried to add the color blue (more blue) with the screen adapter?
Imho the yellow hue is less a problem than a bad screen per se, or at least ita should be

Wow Sony really have put a lid on any kind of leak this time last year we knew everything about the Jelly Bean update to the Xperia T before release and so fast forward to today we know virtually nothing about what 4.3 will bring to the Xperia Z1 apart from the Video frame rate jumping upto 60fps I'm not complaining as it will add to the surprise when it does launch but surely a little sneak peek wouldn't hurt now would it.

better performance is expected, it was one of the core update for 4.3. I expect Z1 to go even higher with full OpenGL ES 3 support.

I think this slight yellow tinting is simply because of screen calibration, if apps can fix it then it is definitely just software calibration, not a hardware problem. My Go also appears a little bit yellow and I think this is because Sony opted for warm color tone instead of cool color tone, warm color tone is easier on the eyes but also has that very slight yellow hue. Warm color tone is actually even present on my old

Hazel.
If the screen has light bleed or unusual line like the one Vikeviki had then that is a hardware fault, most probably the screen was not precisely placed on Vike's Z1.
