Sony just rolled out newfirmware 28.0.A.8.251. I found the performance is better than before and less overheating, i did a benchmark with AnTuTu and gave me 57304 point :good:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] romeokk:
I'm still waiting for update for Hong kong dual sim variant to roll out. For me, 5.1.1 is not so important. I just want my Z3+ to be as smooth as my sister's Z2.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] trumastanr1:
Nice to hear. So Sony basically naild it.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] illetyus:
My first benchmark is around = 50.300

second is around = 49.399

I didn't do any wipes after .251 update. Do you think i should do that? Did you do factory reset?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] angvil:
I have the same issue I did the update OTA
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] hasona:
Definitely do wipes

Mine clocked in at 56.6k and then 57k on .251 FW

No OTA in the UK yet, but I got around to installing Sony Bridge For Mac ... good news I see it there now
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] iRimas:
Which network UK.??? Or unbranded?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] miker71:
Unbranded/SIM unlocked.

Another bit of good news, this update seems to fix Stagefright.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] iRimas:
Its wired I have unbranded and unlocked but no ota or pcc update..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] JR5968:
I have a UK Unbranded on O2- Nothing OTA/ PCC/ Bridge for Mac
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] sstanton86:
Hmm will try Bridge for mac when i'm home. on o2 here and nothing showing up
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] miker71:
The update was automagically detected a few seconds after I plugged the phone into my Mac and mounted, then I just followed the instructions.

I note that Sony's website says Java SE is required for system updates using bridge - whilst I didn't install it, it's possible one of my kids installed it previously for one of their dumb web games. If I remember I'll check if my Mac has Java installed (quickest way to check should still be via terminal, 'java --version' IIRC).

I use a 3 PAYG, but I don't see why that would make any difference.

Perhaps if you pop your SIM out and try it?

---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------

Looks like my Mac does have some form of Java installed.

By default Macs ship without Java installed.

i just flashed my Z3+ DUAL E6533 HK variant with latest .251 MENA firmware.

besides newer kernel version, i see the auto brightness seems better, less heat, dialer numbers now follow theme accent, etc, will see how it goes after few days.

Hope update of Android 5.1.1 is ard the corner :good:

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] illetyus:
Please man, as a favor...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] monx®:
it wont help much mate, trust me. unless the device if fresh at 1st warm boot after factory reset.

i hv bunch of installed apps which most of them running in background, + stamina mode settings, which i believe may affect the result.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
Benchmark score depends heavily on the 'initial' CPU temp (msm-therm from CPU-Z or such). You'd get 56K+ if initial temp is in mid 20s. Looks like you're starting from the 30s. If so, no need for factory reset. Also make sure all other apps are closed during the run.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] illetyus:
Why is it so hard to get a test :)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] markdave.medina:
Got 49959 on my device, but only after I retested it without any other apps running in background. Topped all the other devices in the list, but I think I can do better.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] hasona:
Its true though the numbers mean **** but if it makes you happy I got 57.8k
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
I thought you were asking why you got low score. Anyways, here's mine & OP had one too on the very first post.

I got 59K. My best on the previous .24 fw has 57K. Once again, like monx & others said benchmark scores mean nothing.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] iRimas:
Can you please make an ftf file for UK Unbranded please.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] papi92:
I am thinking of buying this device. Does it still overheat?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
Mine never did since there was a day 1 fw update (*.2x) on the launch week. On the very first one (.08x or something like that), yes it did. On the latest one, things got even better.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] papi92:
Hows the battery life? Can I see some SoT times? I need like 4-5 hours. I travel a lot.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] gibbo82:
What's the heating issues like now & battery with the latest firmware??
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
Too early for me to judge the battery life on the new fw. But on the previous .2x, I used to get 4.5 hours of SoT (LTE/WiFi :: 60/40). Also beware of lollipop's 'mobile radio active' bug. If I closed apps (by hitting 'close all apps') frequently instead of minimizing them before locking screen while I was on LTE, my SoT used to reach 5.5/6 hours on .2x fw.

Also check out the battery life thread to get an idea

With flashtool I didn't find data loss my apps were intact and everything else... Help please
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
How did you try to 'repair' using PC comp? There's only way to do it I think. You connect the phone, check for repair, it says it's up-to-date, then gives an option below 'to repair your phone' (You have to back up data your data before you repair though) Did you try this way?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] JR5968:
I already have java SE

Pop out the sim, Tried with a 3 PAYG sim..... Still Nothing

Oh....my one is Black, but does it really make a difference?

Anyhow tired of waiting. UK Unbranded is always like this even when I had the Z1

Have to try some other region..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] trumastanr1:
I did a repair like you told me with a clean update that means total clear phone. Still warm but way better than before. It's because I have put all my apps and crap back.

Have you thought about some apps that can cause the heat prob. Because I found couple that caused overheat after update. Uninstalled them and everything is fine now. IT'S COOL AS ICE.

Its definitely going to get warm all the Z's (and other phones) do but the improvement is definitely there
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] trumastanr1:
Of course now we have to wait for 5.1.1 or maybe 6.0.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] projectseahorse:
so I read in the reply posts that some users are experiencing a lower benchmark result after the update and others are experiencing good performance scoring a 5.7k or above. So what I did was I originally did an update without the wipe, and my benchmark score was at 5.0. I wiped everything and it got up to 5.1. I again wiped everything and, third time the charm, it got up to 5.8k. Then I installed all my apps back and what not, and the score is still around 5.7k. So I guess doing a wipe will help, the only downside was that I forgot to backup my stuff so I lost an APK file for a particular recent call widget that I can no longer find a compatible version with the z4. That's my price to pay :(
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] asking:
How to do wipe? You mean to say factory reset??? Please tell me how to do wipe...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] schecter7:
You could do a 'repair' through PC companion. Just connect the phone, check for updates, it says it's up-to-date, then gives an option 'to repair your phone' (data backup needed). Check out the screenshot below.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] asking:

As well as fixing Stagefright vulnerability I can also confirm this firmware appears to fix the issue where using Google maps as satnav on a 2.1amp car adapter wouldn't charge the battery - well now with this firmware the battery does charge slowly on the same 2.1amp adapter.

Reboot in recovery mode

Flash from recovery Twrp openrecovery 2.8.7.0 alpha17 zip

Reboot in recovery mode

Go to Wipe/advanced and format /system /cache /data partitions to F2FS

Then finally flash SlimLP F2FS ROM zip

Twrp 2.8.7.0 work but I was unable to flash alpha17 after installing this version ...

Does it require unlock bootloader or not?

My z3 has an unlockable bootloader, so i guess the rom will not work on it?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Alx31:
indeed its need an unlocked BL as all other cm/slim/aosp roms....

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] marceldossantos91:
Sorry for asking, is fisheye present?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Alx31:
fisheye is here and ALL the cm/aosp/slim roms, its not present only on...stock roms.

Be sure that soon as the fix is released, it will be merged on ALL our roms, i mean all the custom ones, u're not alone to get annoyed by this bug bro ;)
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] marceldossantos91:
Thanks. Was just hoping itd be sorted by now, been so long and they havent fixed it. And stops many of us from using custom roms, just so sad.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Alx31:
It will take a while since its kernel related, our kernel is unified with rhine devices (z1/zu/z1c) and blobs are from there, and since shinanos camera is slightly different, that the result... Jeperlea and all other sony/cm devs are aware since day1 ...it will be hopefully fixed one day.

U can still use a custom/kexec patched kernel for multirom on stock rom, and use a debloated stock rom as primary, and flash some aosp/cm roms on secondary roms...!
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] JoRoe:
👍👍

Thank you that is a very good Rom to now without any bugs:good::good::good:.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Pumpino:
How bad is this fish eye effect? Does it mean that all photos come out looking horrible?

I'm thinking about unlocking my bootloader, but won't bother if the camera becomes unusable.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] marceldossantos91:
Unlocking the BL isnt why the fisheye is present, if u UL ur bootloader u can if u didnt yet mess up your DRM, back it up later, the problem is CM based roms, if you use ubl with stock, camera is fine, and with drm fix it works great, the fisheye for some is not bad and for others like me its bad, it creates a fisheye effect in the middle of every photo and on some photos, even warps it entirely, if you personally dont care to much about camera it wont bug u at all, but since i rely on my Z3 for the cam as i am a developer myself and need to take straight photos of codes all the time from books, its a serious pain to me, the judge of how bad it is though is person dependant, if i were u though, i wouldnt be scared to try as long as you backup your drm and take a nandroid incase u wanna go back

[Oppo R5] Lum_UK:
I was under the impression that since the R5S has the same model number as the R5 (R8106) and is just a bump in RAM and flash memory, that the recoveries and ROMs would be compatible.

I was wrong, and having flashed TWRP, or the wmjan recovery, they can't boot.

Anyone got the stock recovery img from an r5s so I can have a working recovery again? The stock r5 recovery from oppoforums has the same problem as the custom ones.

I've commented an issue on GitHub, maybe it would help identifying the problem.
[Oppo R5] maxwen:
Please in an adb shell on your device running stock ROM do

cat /proc/oppoVersion/prjVersion

And yes you can yank together prebuilt dt.img but thats not really a solution

for official TWRP since it need to be built all from source then.
[Oppo R5] tdaliviu:
It says:

14005

So I guess OppoId on the R5 and R5s are the same, strange :/
[Oppo R5] maxwen:
Yes thats then strange

But you can still try to yank together stock dt.img with the kernel if you want
