[Xperia Z5 Compact General] RiTCHiE007:
It says on the box dude. Thats what rev1 and rev2 etc means.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] thesebastian:
I'd personally prefer a new firmware with less throttling and more CPU temp, let's say 10ºC more CPU temp and better performance.

My CPU temp is really low, the kernel is very conservative and feel that the "BIG" cores are not being exploited.

I'm new to BIG LITTLE... but I tried different alternatives with my previous Nexus 5 (not a BIG Little SoC):

- 2 cores enabled / max 2.3Ghz (2 disabled)

- 2 cores enabled / max 1.7Ghz (2 disabled)

- 4 cores enabled / max 1.2Ghz

- And the stock kernel (my default one): 4 cores enabled / 2.3Ghz max frequency / ondemand / and the throttling based on Battery temp (not in CPU temp, If i remember well).

The battery life (and the SoT) was not really different between different setups but the performance was better (less stutters, etc) when 2.3Ghz was defined as the Max frequency.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] darthbane7:
Yes, exactly my thinking, too regarding aggressive Throtteling.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] virzintas:
Hey guys, yesterday bought mine Z5C and felt that the phone is getting really warm after simple usage (web browsing, facebook or vsco cam). Tried to do the antutu and cheked the temperature, at one point the temp rises to 72 Celsius, average temp was about 55-60. Is that really bad and maybe i just need to bring it to warranty service and ask to change it to new one?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] astralgr:
I made a small video showing my Xperia z5 compact overheating.

Just with browsing the CPU can reach temperatures of 50 - 60° in 7 minutes.

At the end of the video you can see the phone reaching these temperatures.

This makes the back of the phone nearly impossible to hold.

I don't know if I have a defect phone but I am thinking of returning it back.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
I think you have a defective unit if it gets too hot to hold. Mine never gets too hot to hold.

With every firmware update my Compact gets snappier and more responsive. I am expecting big things from the Marshmallow update as Anandtech said that it has specific optimisations for ARM's big.LITTLE CPU architecture that are lacking in Lollipop.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] yubeie:
There is something wrong with the cpu temp app that you are using..I just tested two apps simultaneously on my oneplus one...The app you used reported 46C while the "cooler master" app reported 33.3c attached is the screenshot!

There is no way my phone was at 46 because..the phone pretty cool..So I suspect the app is not reporting it right...not sure where it's getting the info from.

okay I am confused now :(.. different apps are reporting differently.. Tried few others from playstore.. all I can ask is do you really feel the heat when you hold the device.. 47 is pretty hot and one will feel it..I noticed on my z5c when I downloaded a 4GB file in the background and installed a few apps simultaneously.. it felt pretty warm and the temp was around 43c..I was using the cooler master app.. might want to try something similar and check the values
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] jomkingal:
Just tried earlier, Video call for around 2 hours, backlight 45% brightness with 3G+ on inside front pocket of jacket. It just shut down and the phone is so hot even outside temp was around 50 degrees fahrenheit. so sad... now turning everything down for it not to overheat that much....
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] thesebastian:
I have no issues with heating here.

With regular usage (browsing) I don't suffer heating anymore (compared to my previous snapdragon 800)

I also use to play hearthstone a lot and some pvz2 this phone with 720p display doesn't consume battery and doesn't get hot compared to my previous 1080p phone.

I've noticed a huge performance boost between Lollipop and Marshmallow with the N5 2013

So if those big little improvements exist too. I think we have 2 reasons to think the performance will be better.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
That's not normal, I'd look into warranty repair if I were you.

Yeah, my previous phone was Nexus 5 too (still have it as spare) and I agree, performance got much better with Marshmallow.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] yubeie:
I've posted this content in another thread..I felt it may help members here as well..

....I performed extensive testing in the past two days regarding the temps to understand the behavior....Here are the details..

I used my old oneplusone and z5 compact to compare 1. perceived heat (based on touching the device) and 2. actual temp readings from the app devcheck pro.

Regarding temp readings, I monitored both CPU as well as battery temps. I generally felt, the "perceived heat" comes into play only once battery heats up as this lines up along the back of the phone.

Test performed: Used flipboard and news republic apps for 5-6minutes. Then opened chrome dev browser app and loaded "cricinfo.com" website. This web-page is flash intensive and has tons of content. I kept repeatedly navigating through the webpages and accessing links. The idea was to perform intensive web-browsing.

Note that both phones had TPU cases on them.

Here are my findings:

-Both the phone's CPUs start off at 37-40c and gradually hit 55-65c. Interestingly, I noticed that oneplus one at times hit almost 73-75c!! whereas z5c never hit this limit (perhaps due to thermal throttling???).

-The battery temps steadily rose from 27c to 38-40c.

Attached is a screenshot for your reference.

-On both phones, the temps rose almost around the same time (about 7-10mins into the test). I felt at some-point z5c was being throttled to maintain temp thresholds. However, I did not notice any "visible" performance drops.

The key thing to note: The back of the oneplus one was slightly warm. Whereas z5c was pretty warm (although not uncomfortable). I think this is exactly where the user gets worried, thinking the phone is overheating. The problem is the glass back as opposed to the padded material of the oneplus one. The glass surface of z5c almost immediately starts conducting heat and quickly heats up.

After letting the phones cool, almost within 10minutes, both the phone temps dropped pretty quickly.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ninestarkoko:
Thank you for the detailed report!

In my experience the phone gets warm/pretty warm when doing things like long browsing on mobile data, doing extensive multitasking while downloading apps or files. In general use phone is cool or a bit warm and battery isn't affected (screen-on time usually 5:30 h during two days of use).

Tried recording a video in 2K mode: lasted 27 minutes, cpu temperature of 53°C ( 18°C inside of the room), battery went from 50% to 30%
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] yubeie:
similar observations here.. Started recording 1080p HD 60fps when battery temp was 29c and after 8 mins the app shutdown. the temperature was 46c....I returned my device as it wasn't working out for me.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] eng3:
My main issue is that the heating up is unpredictable so its hard to count on my ability to capture a moment in 4K video.

General heating up (where it doesnt shut down) doesnt really matter to me so much, although it is important to distinguish CPU heat from battery heat. Battery heating will reduce the life of the battery.

I usually do the following if I absolutely need to capture a 4K moment (and know in advance)

1. Fully charge the phone. The lower it gets the hotter it will run since it needs to draw more current as the voltage goes down. That heat MAY make the CPU overheat faster.

2. Reboot the phone to ensure no unnecessary apps are open, but do it far enough in advance so some startup tasks arent stuck spinning (ie. media scanner)

3. Goto Airplane mode, no radio means no power draw to maintain a signal. No internet means all those apps won't be trying to connect to update using up CPU cycles.

4. Unless your case is a big metal brick, take it out of the case so it can cool faster.

That's what I do, I don't know how effective it really is, but it makes sense to me.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ninestarkoko:
if you return the phone for that reason, what does sony do? do they exchange that for a new one?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] yubeie:
well.. I bought mine on Amazon US website fullfilled by them..so just returned it for refund.. can't risk it again.. as I've heard amazon bans users of there are too many returns.. really liked the phone otherwise.. software as well it pretty stable and butter smooth... will definitely consider the next iteration
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ninestarkoko:
You made your choice and probably it was the right one in your situation.

For now the most annoying thing to me is the position of the volume buttons. Sony crazily put 4 buttons in the bottom half of a side. Software seems quite stable for me, and it's generally smooth

Back to the topic, in another test, phone connected to 750mA charger, during a 20 min play of the game "dead effect 2" (which should be ,at least ,GPU demanding) the phone reaches 50°C ( 18-19°C degrees inside the room ); it's hot but completely bearable (my galaxy s2 got hotter during gaming). I don't know how it'll be in summer or for long lasting sessions of demanding games.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] cwtang:
I agree that when the battery level is low the z5c getting warmer when open few apps at the same time.

Smoothness of Stock ROM with greatness of RRO Themes

​

What is AOSP?

AOSP is Android as Google publish without other modifications. More or less AOSP is the Nexus devices stock rom without gapps.

Anyway to get a working system I added some changes from CodeAurora Forum and CyanogenMod. I added also 3 non-AOSP features for a better user experience (Advanced Reboot, "Clear All" button in Recents and an option to delete screenshots from the notification area) and I'm NOT going to add something other.

What is RRO?

RRO (Runtime Resource Overlay) which was designed by google and its modded by our developers to include it into AOSP ROMs.In short,RRO is a Theme Engine replacement and it can do wonders!

Features

AOSP

Layers 3.0 (U don't find this in all the ROMs)

Clear all recents

Advanced reboot

Ambient display

Optimizations for battery

Many AOSP fixes

MSIM fixes

Switches in dashboard

Android M sounds

Documents Ui(file manager)

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lok3sh:
Hey guys. I'm visiting India from NYC and bought a Galaxy S6 here. There are a lot of region specific things on this firmware that I do not like. For example, when I add new phone numbers, the automatic formatting of (xxx) xxx-xxx does not happen. Numbers just save as xxxxxxxxx and I have to manually add the formatting. This is just one of the many things that are bugging me. I want to flash an NA or equivalent firmware on my phone and was wondering what the most optimal firmware would be to use? Should I use a carrier branded firmware from T-Mobile or something? Does NA have a non branded firmware at all?

Thanks so much in advance!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ourandroid:
So, just like many other owners I have had the following problems: bootloop, mic doesn't work, speaker doesn't work, fuzzy/crazy screen, touch not responding, USB connection not recognized, and LEDs not working .

I went through all the tricks which included putting pressure on the back of the phone where the flex cable attaches under the camera, and this temporarily solved the problem. Eventually no matter how hard I pushed, it would not work. I know now how this made things worse (explained later). So when that stopped working I ordered a new flex cable like others had, hoping it would be a permanent fix. Nope, no change. However, when I was detaching the flex cable for the last time, I noticed some of the pins in the main socket lifting up. Ah of course that's why pushing helps, the pins on the female side are broken and pushing helps re-establish their connection. The problem with the pushing solution, and especially when you push hard, the pins will bend away and never re-establish the connection.

If you look at an open phone, the socket (shown in the pic below) is located in the area most susceptible to damage in my opinion. I call it the fault line where the rigid battery meets the not so rigid main board. If you have micro cracks on the side of your phone, you have most likely flexed/bent your phone along this fault line. I keep my phone in my back pocket so I'm sure I have sat down and done this many times.

So, the socket has the disadvantage of not being very sturdy, along with sitting on the fault line. The stresses placed upon it are likely snapping the pins. Here's the specs showing each pin. (rotate counter-clockwise to match up) On my phone, the left side of the socket was lifting out so all of those pins had snapped. These pins correspond to the problems I was having, eg. speaker, mic, screen, etc.

I don't know if this is a DIY fix or not. The pins are so small that if they hadn't lifted for me, I could not tell if they were snapped or not. I can tell you that the part number is ENBY0057001. I just haven't been able to find it in North America yet. If I did, would it be easy replace the broken one for a low cost?

Thanks
