Is anyone experiencing issues with Bluetooth audio? I've been getting really bad signal transmission and dropouts with my SBH80 (and a colleagues). Just putting the phone between my palms is making the audio drop out entirely!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Foxhunter123:
I can confirm the Facebook issue - but also Lifelog was a sinner for me today...???

The top 4 on battery usage was

1. com.sonymobile.lifelog 11%

2. Facebook 9%

3. Mediaserver 9%

4. Chrome 4%

I took the phone off the charger 7.30 made a phonecall for about 20 minutes 8.35 -8.55 and didn't touch my phone after that, but all of a sudden I only had about 10% power back at about 14.30...???

I have never experienced such a poor battery life on my Z3C that is normally an eternity-machine...

And the thing is that I'm pretty sure I closed all programs... :confused:
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] inzi.hoq:
is there any1 who installed lollipop in D5833 ?

im thinking about installing in my d5833

really hard to wait.

will i get auto update in future through update center if i install D5803 lollipop version in my D5833 with flash tool
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] yacloo:
i don't have any issues with sbh80 it works fine

edit : sbh80's mic not working with 5.0.2 so switching back kitkat
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] joaomateus:
I installed it on my D5833 and have been using it for three days with no issues yet. I don't know if the update will show up in the update center, but probably not, since the firmware thinks it is the D5803.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] jmoore2:
I installed it. It seems fast and stable so far. I turned animation speed to 0.5 and it is flying! Only bug I have noticed is that tapping the alarm time in the notification tray does not take you to the alarm. There is an animation that suggests it should do something but nothing actually happens.

Further, I have now noticed that the network displaying on my phone is incorrect (kind of). It is showing as o2. I am on tesco mobile (an MVNO who use o2's network), however, my APN settings are correct and in the "select a network operator" setting menu I am shown as being connected to tesco 4g. Strange and annoying, but there are no extra charges on my phone bill so I don't really care haha.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] mgroover:
Thanks, I think I narrowed it down to Lifelog having major issues and CPU usage. 5h wakelock and what seems like 12-25% constant CPU usage during today which could be related to the bluetooth issues. Gonna try it on my Z3 Compact Tablet and see if it misbehaves now that I'm at home.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] spromper:
Awesome update, the only 'bug' I've found is that the quick toggles are different in lockscreen compared to after unlocking (see screenshots).

I'm also experiencing better Battery life than before. 7hours SOT, ~30 hours unplugged.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] QBerto:
That's not a bug, obviously for security reasons, on lockscreen, location and mobile data can't be disabled.....

Well then, day 3

I can say It seems a better battery life, with a normal day usage for me (draining about 80% battery life) now I coming home with about 30%

But I found another issues this time, in service menu (*#*#7378423#*#*) Service info > Configurations cause FC, same as service settings

And I found no more for today... I'm still surprised with the update, there're a lot of improvements, but I find SO annoying the radio bug ... and the impossibility of revert to swipe to unlock
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] milesg:
Urhhhh, that's the 5.02 memory leak:

http://www.xda-developers.com/lollipop-memory-leak-fixed/

Looks like Sony left it in there untouched. The homescreen app being killed and having to reload when you go home is a symptom of it. One of the reasons I got rid of my Nexus 5, as it gets very tiresome waiting a few seconds to see your homescreen when you press the home button every now and then, usually when you are quickly trying to look something up.

The other thing all my lollipop devices suffered from is a long delay when you press the multitasking button (the square icon in the bottom icon bar in Lollipop). The N5 could take 2 seconds from button press to coming up with the 3D stack of apps vs being instant on KK.

I'll be waiting for 5.1, that memory leak is a (task) killer.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Michealtbh:
Have Sony removed face unlock? I can't find it anywhere in settings

Edit - found it. Have to enable security then smart lock
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Schumi 01:
Well flashed lollipop on a non rooted phone, quite like it, but a few things of annoyance, the picture of the user in the status bar, not too sure i like the lock screen, and the big one, the quick settings, i know only minor things, decided to re-flash kit kat, much more happier.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] GaryFisher88:
Can someone confirm that pinch to zoom isn't working on google image? You have to open as image to be able to zoom

I tried on nexus 4 with Lollipop and on Z3c

on kitkat it worked
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] El Brillantinas:
I live in the US but I installed a Generic Nordic .tft via Flashtool as soon as it was available. Everything's working fine so far, battery life ain't better but not worse than Kitkat (I got Stamina ON all the time and the phone reaches 26 hours with a "rude" use, and 14% of juice still remains, this is definitely better than battery life in my Nexus 5). Lockscreen in Kitkat was better. Camera quality is the same as 4.4. I only found a bug when I try to turn the stock Lollipop battery saver on, doing this makes recent tasks go "invisible".
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] fastlone:
Was there an option to auto unlock on proper PIN code (without applying) on KitKat? I miss that option on Lollipop and don't know if it's been removed or there wasn't anything like that.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Nathan-NL:
Has Sony increased or decreased the vibration strength?

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:37 PM ----------

Airplane mode is still enabled?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] spromper:
Hmm but I don't use a pin or pattern, on kitkat al toggles were available in the lockscreen and on my nexus 7 with android 5 also.

Sometimes when I toggle extended usage on or off the device starts.to lag like hell and then reboots. This also used happen on kitkat, has anybody else experienced this?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] baste07:
Has sony stopped the rollout?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
30% of my battery usage is from the play services. Because of activate radio. Is it usual?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] yacloo:
Really is this firmware tested and certified or was issued to satisfy customers

too much bugs I am going back to kitkat
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] QBerto:
Version of GPServices? Go to https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gms&hl=en and install selecting your phone, is the only way I can get last version and it seems is fixed

The vibration is the same I think

And well, I dunno why then they disabled some quick toggles in lockscreen.... because sony (?)

Google should give us a way to deactivate their stupid GPServices, or select what features we want to activate, there was a lot of problems of battery drain a lot of times
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
I already have newest 7.0.97
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] baste07:
What z3c ver do you have?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Konesuke:
If google drain batteries, you have to disable ok google recognizing from all screens. It Will re enable at every updatr of google now
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
5.0.2 Nordic, Google Play Services are -436 ones.

Its not activated and was never. As i said its the activated radio time under statistics. Im not sure what the play services to with 2 hours radio link.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] fastlone:
Also Smart Lock function (no-lock at home) doesn't work.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Michealtbh:
That was buggy for me too. Try adding some locations around your home, works for me after doing this
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] mgroover:
The headset seems borked :(

Found one nice bug, ActiveSync-policy and lock screen notifications do not play well at all. It works on my nexus device and on the devices I beta-tested Android for Work on. Sent a support ticket to Sony, let's see what they say :)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] javierdsv:
There is no such thing on Z3c.

They didn't. They announced the rollout would be for the selected zones (baltic, nordic) and around two weeks later the rollout would continue for the rest of the world.

It seems only Video Unlimited is not available in certain countries. Movie Trailer can be watched in the new Whats New App, but it redirects to the Movies App and does nothing when pressing Buy.

So you only can watch your bought movies via PS Store https://store.playstation.com/#!/de-de/library/main. Would be interesting if its available in Balkan Generic?

It seems the problem with GP Services has been solved by itself. I will observe it...
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] N_Face:
Can't film videos with camera it just force closes when I try. Won't play YouTube videos either. Has Anyone else experienced it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Sichroteph:
Same thing here!

It was working before so that must be something we installed.

Adblock? I installed too an app to let the others to write on SD.

I freezed a lot of system apps too with Titanium.

I use greenify.

You?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] N_Face:
Nothing really, don't use any of the above apps either
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] ajgftw:
Just helping brain storm here, but could it be one of the battery saving features scalling something down too far?

Ahhhh well. I tried. If I cant randomly guess the solution then I give up ☺
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Sichroteph:
That's a shame because so far I am more than happy with this lollipop update.

Actually it seems to be a lollipop issue, a LOT of users describe the same problem on other devices here :

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] yokuyuki:
Not like I use any of those so makes no difference to me. Shouldn't they detect my actual location instead of my FW version?

Video recording and YouTube working fine on stock rom (no root, no hacks).
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Howlbeck:
No issues with YouTube or video recording, too. I'm rooted.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] :
have you cleared cache/data for camera app? i got many FCs (force closes) after flash nordic by Flashtool, A factory Reset should work fine.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] kind3r:
I managed to fix it by resetting to defaults.

My guess is something went wrong during the automatic reinstall of all apps because I was playing with them while they were being installed/updated and some of them complained about requiring a new version of Google Play Services. This time I let it finish installing/updating everything and it worked.

Or perhaps there was a but in Play Services, who knows.

But now, another issue, Trusted places don't work. Anyone else ?

They did not work prior to reset, I was hoping that they were somehow linked with the ADM issue.

[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Sichroteph:
If someone else has the YouTube / video recorder bug, I uninstalled the system YouTube app with Titanium and reinstalled it from the market. I cleared the camera cache too. So far it is working but I prevent myself to be too much optimistic since it seems to be a well know problem.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] sander151187:
For me it seems to have cured itself :?
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] N_Face:
After reading your comment I've tried mine and can confirm that video recording and YouTube is working now, how weird. Think there was YouTube update this morning so wonder if that solved the problem
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] fastlone:
I had the same issue, then I realized that I had bad home location in Google settings.

Also you can try to add several locations nearby your home, someone posted here that it worked.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] kind3r:
Already tried adding multiple locations, nothing happened.

I found several threads reporting issues with Trusted places since the past 2 weeks, so it seems to be a Google Play Services issue, so not Sony specific.

At home no problems, via mobile data neither. It was working with our company wlan with german 4.4 kitkat firmware.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Howlbeck:
Shows just fine for me - give it some time to fully sync. Not sure if it appeared for me right at once, I just noticed it today on my lockscreen.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] ajbattaglia83:
I just got this phone last week coming from a Moto X 2014 running lollipop I flashed the Nordic lollipop ftf installed the GNL launcher and keyboard uninstalled/disabled as much as I could and this thing is pretty close to stock. Loving this little phone!!
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] Howlbeck:
Other than the above I'm pretty impressed - flashed the rooted one (LB) on saturday, stuck with no recovery and partial/no system r/w like many others (couldn't be bothered to try hints from other threads yet).

In terms of battery life I think it's a bit better than kitkat, but today was the 1st day in full use at the office, probably have to wait some cycles to see for sure. Usually I ended up at early afternoon with low battery, today it was around 16:00 before I had to plug it in.

Performance - well, great ! I disabled all animations as I did with kitkat and it is just smooth.

Did not run into any problems with apps so far, all seem to behave as they should. Camera - well, I just use it for quick shots to document certain situations/objects, quality is ok for me.

Had some trouble with play store updates (error 944) this morning, but reading on other sites this likely was a Google problem - it worked again this afternoon.

Have you done a full factory reset after you flashed nordic? I had certain force closes after flashing nordic, since factory reset no problems anymore.

I've been having issues with a critical app, Good for Enterprise. This is what my company uses for push email to personal devices. The app opens fine but crashes while trying to download my policy settings after entering my unique info. It doesn't even show a crash dialog it just exits direct to home screen.

Has anyone else had issues? Unfortunately this is a deal-breaker... I need work email on my phone.

I tried unfreezing all the xperia apps I had disabled in Titanium backup but that didn't seem to fix it.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] _katho_:
Have you rooted your device (guess so as you're using TitaniumBackup)? Good doesn't work with root.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] echoboomer:
Wow.. I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up... that's very disappointing.

Just found this xposed module which can apparently disable the root check. Maybe I'll give that a shot once recovery is working on Lolli.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] flipside101:
This will only work on ver 2.7 and earlier
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] _katho_:
Yep.

Don't think that module will work, only with very old versions of the app, I've tried it in the past.

I've replaced Good with Mobile Access for Outlook OWA, works great. :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dotcreation.outlookmobileaccesslite&hl=en

So I can have a rooted device and still access my work email/calendars etc. Will work for you too if your company have OWA activated, most do.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] echoboomer:
Thanks for the link. Pretty pricey app...

I also saw that Microsoft has their own OWA app (link). I tried this because it's free but it seemed to not be able to connect to my OWA server. My company is weird because you have to go through a company log-in portal before you get to the Microsoft login portal. I think this may be causing the issue...
