[Xperia Z3 General] vRS Carl:
I keep having a couple of errors.

One is a get a pop up saying "unfortunately drive has stopped"

The other is neither time shift burst or xperia keyboard apps will update from the play store. All other apps are fine.

I've tried deleting my Google account and reinstalling also tried different networks etc.

However I can't seem to get them to uodate. I just get a error code 504.

I'd try and clear the cache and data for the apps themselves but there's not a setting to do so.
[Xperia Z3 General] schetz:
Xperia keyboard looks to be updated for me thru OTA. Timeshift burst still gives the same error.
[Xperia Z3 General] vRS Carl:
They need to dish out this OTA quicker as it's affecting my OCD lol.
[Xperia Z3 General] schetz:
To be honest, although I rcvd OTA I'm anxious about next one:

-will it be the same as the one I rcvd, and therefore I'm clean ?

-will it be different adding some new stuff, and I will get it again ?

-has receiving last OTA actually messed up things and I am out of the loop ?

Would be nice to have any info
[Xperia Z3 General] vRS Carl:
Well I'm still on the initial build so can't answer any of that I'm afraid.

Nothing showing so far today either.

Same build number as last/first OTA. But this time,more detailed changelog. Which kinda confirms,first OTA was rather accidental.

All that is needed for everyone to receive the update is for someone who has got it on unlocked bootloader to flash a twrp recovery.img.

Yes, interesting indeed! However it seems xda users on the concept program who are receiving updates are all on locked bootloader.

SD card Issue

Anyone having issue formatting sd card as internal but internal storage does not extend?
[Xperia Z3 General] FcukBloat:
AFAIK it is the normal MM behavior.... if you use the ext as internal, then the internal sdcard "disappear"
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
It is not an issue, it is a feature, if you use SD card as internal storage, it is processed internally by Android system and there are no visible changes to user.
[Xperia Z3 General] Ultraman1966:
Can someone please do a performance check on using external card as part of integrated storage? I'm always having to transfer my photos and videos, getting sick of 16gb...well 12 usable.
[Xperia Z3 General] spityu85hun:
not worth it to use it is worth nothing

I try this feature...with dead trigger 2 game, formating my 32gb sd has internal storage extend, move a game data internal to sd, 430mb from 50mb moved to sd... Haha...funny...not worth using this feature...
[Xperia Z3 General] the_black_dragon:
Ehm.... Formatting SD as internal just means, you get a second "Userdata" Partiton to move apps between SD and Internal. You have to go to Settings - Storage - click on SD - 3dot Menu - migrate data

then Android will move the Virtually mounted Media partition (that vontains Android/obb; Android/data and all your media files you have access to, to the SD card. After that you can use your full SD Card for apps and your media files but unternal memory is now ONLY for Apps and System Data.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
It has several glitches, for example that internal eMMC storage is way faster than SD card.

Nice article, that explains how it works and where there is a catch:

http://liliputing.com/2015/10/android-6-0-can-treat-sd-cards-as-internal-storage-at-a-cost.html

For example my phone and SD card:

Xperia Z3 internal eMMC: read 182 MB/s write 50.4 MB/s

Class 10 Sandisk SDcard: read 29.2 MB/s write 9.6 MB/s

so you can see that internal memory outperforms in reading any SD card, and in writing majority of common Class 10 UHS-1 cards.
[Xperia Z3 General] MickieH:
To be honest, I wouldn't trust a SD card to be used as internal memory.

Apart from the speed deficit, what happens if it corrupts?

I can't see that being good in any way.

I have had a few memory cards go bad over the years, so I think I'll stick with the SD as a SD card, not internal memory.
[Xperia Z3 General] FcukBloat:
same here, plus I want/need the double memory :o
[Xperia Z3 General] Danchibald:
From time to time, i backup all important data to OTG USB, for example... Just for sure :D :D
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
Have all my important data automatically synced to my network and then to two independent cloud locations.

As to SD-cards, yes, there is that speed penalty, more over SD cards are not designed to be constantly written like internal memory. And unless you buy some expensive SDXC from Sony or industrial grade card, you are always in risk of data loss. Also had couple of SDs that just died out of nothing.
