I upgraded from the z3 plus and I've never looked back

There seems to be an extra lock screen when I unlock, and it has ads for apps on it. How do I disable it, or at least ditch the ads?

Thanks.

This looks like a 3rd party app. Restart into safe mode and see if it disappears.

Thanks for the quick reply. It was just that. Avoid Jewel Star by Itree like the plague!

How do I take blur-free photos? And to unfocused an object or subject? I'm having a hard time taking a family picture because other family member's face or body is blurred even using superior auto. Thanks in advance.

I want to know if there is a radio app like the one is in the xperia z1 that does not use internet connection, for xperia zx

@Wahi5 XZ Premium doesn't have an FM radio.

[azzido]

Correction, it has FM Radio as it is build in Qualcomm's chip, however it was disabled by Sony. 

[najodleglejszy]

...which effectively means that there's no FM radio.
