No, not supposedly released here in the UK on the 7th. Just because a Sony UK account tweeted that date as the start of the rollout globally does not mean everyone gets it immediately at all.
[Xperia Z5 General] Pandemic:
Well then your 2 years fly away like the speed if light isn't and who said 2 years for Z5 with one of latest chips ? Well i think its longer then 2 years, but let me be clear and simple and let me say this: i read only replies by complainers and that they think MM 6.0 is the final.... Lol !! Come on guys !!
[Xperia Z5 General] kishu27:
Guys, this is frustrating. I still haven't got the OTA.

I see my customization listed in Xpericheck.com. When I go to Settings->About->Diagnostics->Facts, it tells me "New Software Available". But the update screen is still stuck and says "Your device is up to date!". WTF?

Does it matter if I have the international version in US?

[Xperia Z5 General] langeveld024:
[MENTION=4681015]Ben36[/MENTION] What about, xperifirm..?

[Xperia Z5 General] atanu89:
Guys just so you know (even if you already do some others may not), the update is not OTA but you must plug it into PC companion.

If your device still doesn't receive the update, you may have to uninstall PC companion and install it again (you may have an older version).

I had to install PC companion again I hope this helps.

Hi there,

Also from France and I have had to install MM using Flashtool...

I have tested IT first then RU one and now Central Europe...

Russian and Central Europe are working like a charm and surley Italian onr too but my FTF was corrupted.

One thing thought for which I need clarification:

As using a french provider from France and using the official LP rom, my phone setting was setup to :

Preferred LTE/GSM/WCDMA

Now the preferred network are:

LTE/WCDMA/GSM

Everything works fine but when I enter in Service setting (dial in *#*#service#*#*) it shows LTE_GSM_WCDMA

Do not know if that affects anything as everything is running well :confused:
[Xperia Z5 General] lckh:
This isn't working for me. I've reinstalled xperia and PC companion and both show no update available for my AUS E6653 but on my phone it does show it for some reason. If I click on that notification it asks me to install on the computer but the pc companion doesn't show an update
[Xperia Z5 General] 3=yeatp|YJ:
To UK Three users: has anyone received the update yet?
[Xperia Z5 General] mgolder:
Bit of a faff using pc companion to update in UK. Once it started it suddenly decided to say I had no Internet.... Which I did. It aborted. Phone then went into a state of saying update failed, connect to try again.

Of course, connecting it did nothing as the phone wouldn't turn on to continue the update. So had to use Xperia Companion instead to do a full repair. Which installed MM anyway. So, now all good after the apps downloading again etc.

Seems nicer to use so far for me. Happy.

I'm on Three UK too, mine is also an unlocked handset. Make sure your APN settings are there properly. If you want the APN settings PM me and I'll send them over. Also, I'm on the Customised RU firmware but that shouldn't make a difference.
[Xperia Z5 General] redder95:
Annoying isn't it? It's a known Nova with Marshmallow bug for months actually, along with the gesture to expand notification bar. Nova seems to push the blame to Google and that they are not able to do anything on their part. So no more easy notif bar expansion and buttonless screen lock (if you wanna use fingerprint, that is).

The most significant update for me, as I'm using both SIM slots, is we are now allowed to pick a default SIM to be used as outgoing call.

Everything else seems negligible.

Problem with Task View

I recently updated to Marshmallow and love it!

Sadly it's not 6.0.1, but hopefully this will also arrive soon...

My recent problem with it was though that when I push the square button to open the task overview,

the small apps are blocked by the onscreen buttons!

(You're still able to press them, but the area where the press is recognized is way too tiny...)

Has anyone having the same issue on Marshmallow ROM?

I hope Sony will also fix this in the next update...

[Xperia Z5 General] farooknaji:
I'm UK Unlocked, updated yesterday. I did a full wipe, then installed MM via PC Companion, then finally did a repair for good measure.

I'm genuinely quite happy, the phone is noticeably snappier and battery life seems to be better. I unplugged at 8am and i'm currently at 91% which is better than i've ever had after nearly 4 hours. That said, some of this could be due to the wipe and repair as i've had pretty poor battery life until now - getting average less than 2 hours screen-on-time.

Will see how much battery I have left when I get to bed this evening. I'm usually hitting 10% by 10pm and that's with conservative use.

So I just flashed the Customized RU firmware on my E6653 (was originally Singtel/Singapore) and my only minor complaint is that the mobile data icons are 4g/3g/2g and not LTE/H+/H/E... Is there another MM firmware region that has minimal bloat but also has the LTE/H+ icons???

Also, does anyone know of a way to install the Google "Phone" dialer app? I managed to install the "Contacts" app, but the dialer won't go and I really want a phone app that'll tie in to the Google Contacts app and not the built-in one...

Thanks-in-advance,

I installed mm (6.0, build 32.1.A.1.163) OTA from carrier (3 UK) yesterday. So far it seems ok but i have lost sony xperia stamina /ultra stamina modes for battery saving. Now only the inbuilt mm battery saver. Default was off and had to recharge after 5hrs (instead of 15hrs). Now it's on and used 3% battery overnight. Still testing - will report back but except permissions, so far i regret updating. Hope i change mind.
[Xperia Z5 General] Ben36:
5 hours and you need to recharge? What are you doing with your phone?
[Xperia Z5 General] RayBanUK:
I have similar behaviour since the update, and also on 3 UK. Definitely lost the Stamina mode, but maybe Sony ommitted to make use of Android M's Doze feature? Having said that, I am see considerable battery drain too and mine only lasts under a day.

Like I mentioned previously, my quick charge 2.0 capability has gone too, but that might be just down to the particular charger no longer supported (Aukey)
[Xperia Z5 General] Daniel_GB:

Question

I've had the update for less than 24 hours. Did a clean install. So far, I'm impressed with the smoothness of the interface. However, I feel that my notification sounds are much quieter than before. Any suggestions how I might remedy this? A hidden setting, perhaps? :o

I also am less than impressed with the Android replacement for Sony's Stamina. In the past I was losing about 3% a night of battery charge. Last night I lost 9%. Suggestions?

Don't get me wrong... I'm happy with the update overall (I also think the phone stays just a bit cooler since the update).

Thanks.
[Xperia Z5 General] gamer649:
In regards to battery, for the first few days usage will be abnormal. Give it about a week and it should even out. I'm dropping about 3-4% overnight, on LP with stamina on I was dropping about 15-20% so I'm seeing massive improvements.

I highly agree with you on the coolness of the phone, the only time I've found it to get hot now is while running the Folding@Home app.

Can't help in regards to notification sounds, my phone is always on vibrate.

Hey, new owner here, I bought the phone, upgraded to MM and I have a few issues (totally stock)

1. sometimes it doesn't sleep, particularly while driving for some reason

2. there is a permanent notification with info on the Cell provider (cell information), it doesn't provide anything it's just annoying

3. battery life seems less than stellar

4. some notifications do not trigger the actions they are supposed to, for instance the automate notification doesn't go back to the app or the yatsee notification doesn't open the app either

Other than that I'm happy with the phone, I'm holding off rooting for now even though I really really miss adaway.

My aukey works fine on mm.

Also, it was mentioned many many times before that stamina was removed due to doze. You have not 'lost' the feature, it was taken away until it can be made to work with doze properly. If Sony left it in, it would cause problems, leading to more complaining.

---------- Post added at 03:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 AM ----------

What makes you ask that? Given the majority of issues are solved, the phone runs better and cooler..... Most see battery improvements.... And the inly thing people can moan about, stamina being removed.... Is a perfectly logical and easy to explain thing.
