Probably just some oem malware exploit injection.. Lol

Still none for mine. Hope htc makes a come back
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] TheEndHK:
Actually not, Z5 is on the last boat on this planet now(and even Xiaomi also released 6.0). S6/S6E of 920K started to receive 6.0.1 on 31st Jan in Korea and international model of 920F just started to roll out 6.0.1 today in Poland for EU user. Seriously, I beat the 6.0 has been ready, it's just how lazy of Sony slowly to pull out for us.

T-mobile Poland confirmed to roll out 6.01 for S6/S6E
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Nimda01:
Sony never fast in rolling update, only known for providing long-time update to many models.

Android 5.0 released to Nexus devices in early November 2014.

Moto X (2014) came later in 1-2 weeks.

One M8 got it in January and Galaxy S5 in February 2015.

Xperia Z3 users had to wait until March...
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] TheEndHK:
Sony got the techs but their marketing always behind is very true. In the last year, Z3/Z3c received 5.02 on March I'm afraid we'll be in the same time frame now. However, we've got KitKat on previous generation phone which is working so good for daily driver and we didn't care the late of Lollipop.

On Z5 only got a crap OS since day one and almost half year passed the phone still like joined a beta program, the fact is we just wasted 5 months to pay money for the beta membership. Sony marketing failed to see this and want to release Marshmallow slowly like Lollipop, I think they don't even really used their own products and don't know how bad.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

Bcoz the rom now is probably one of the worst I've ever seen on Sony, we need 6.0 to save us out from the hell urgency. On older phones, they somehow all got some stable builds and late to receive newer OS doesn't real matters at all.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] baste07:
I guess sony wants to go out of thw mobile race
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] feueri:
An update was released last night but the version number stayed the same... and no changelogs anywhere.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] nvrd:
Hopefully a minor patch befor MM.. Im seriously getting annoyed at Sony now.

WhatsNew now supports disabling of notifications so I updated it for the first time since I recieved my Z5C. Yay!

Or not.. Wtf Sony.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] dillalade:
I have very little hope that mm will resolve the issues that plague this phone. Given that apparently users on the bigger z5 are witnessing similar atrocious user experiences, I can't see how a Google firmware update will rectify Sony's shortcomings.

I think it's a long shot hoping mm will fix all issues.

I'm also sensing a lot more users willing to jump ship then when I was on z1 and z3. Even then users were talking of leaving but that was mainly down to Sony's finicky DRM crap.

Now it's purely down to us having paid for an overpriced paperweight.

This phone is a serious let down.

Let alone the sluggish user experience. Remember all that bonkers hype about the camera on this phone, hahahaha, its totally sh!te!

Bought my dad the nexus 5x few months ago, and I love it. Ergonomics are not too far off from z5c, user experience blistering, camera p!sses all over z5c. Finger scanner far superior then z5 range in 3 amazing ways. It's my next option after this z5c mm malarky.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] willumpie82:
It is not google firmware alone that comes with marshmellow, sony has the chance to fix stuff in their own device specific firmware (please do Sony!)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Sadman Khan:
It's not just a Google firmware update. It's an update from Sony itself. They can fix more things or create more issues. Here's to hoping that the latter doesn't happen :P

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Sadman Khan:
So my hunch was true
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] leocooper:
Yeah I got that one too, seems like revision number got higher on XperiFirm but no notable differences and the version number is indeed the same as before

Maybe they dont have developers anymore. All leavin for better pastures
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Groofy85:
Strange.. I woke up today with a notification on my phone that there where a nrw software update, so I plugged it in my Mac and started downloading i Sony Bridge. Havent seen any diffrence so checked now, and it still says the same old Android number. Strange!

But, also wondering, what is the best way to install the update, does it make a diffrence? Download by phone, or by PC/Mac. Fabric reset and then update, just update? I've struggled with really poor battery(half a day), fabric reset, repair, hard reset, soft reset, safty mode, sent it in for service, nothing has helped. So really want this update done right before I have to send it back in to service if/when the Marshmellow doesnt fix it
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] deaix:
Recieving the update via OTA in Germany right now :D
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] reach3r:
German MM Update arrived this morning via Sony Bridge for Mac.

After the installation two of my apps (Spotify and Podcast Addict) had problems accessing the sd card. For spotify an app reset was necessary (good bye offline files), in Podcast Addict I had to change the storage path to the sd card and reimport the podcasts (settings and downloaded episodes are fine though).

Other than those I did not have problems so far. First impression is a very snappy experience.

I'm looking forward to see how the camera, battery life etc. feel over the next days.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Tom1310:
I don't know if it's an issue/bug, but it's weird tho : anyone notice a huge ram consumption ? I've like 99% of ram consumption on the last 3 hours, and on a day I haven't more than 100 mo of free ram ... I don't use a lot of app, just FB Messenger, Textra or Instagram, and I kill one or twice a day all apps. Anyone with the same thing ??
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Miles Lighteater:
I have installed MM, but camera app is still the same. How comes ?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Yakkosmurf:
After doing a clean install last night of MM, Lightroom didn't see the SD card as available, while other apps had no issue with it. Uninstalling and re-installing the app didn't fix it. Trying it again the next morning, the app saw the card just fine.

That piece of data and seeing how my Google Play Services would just tell me it needed updating (but wouldn't actually do it) after my dirty upgrade to MM, but then just started working 30 min later makes me wonder if there is still configuration going on after it looks like the upgrade is finished. I've noticed several other people have had issues that just went away after a while.

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 PM ----------

Camera version 2 came out awhile back, and the MM version is the same. Most people have found it loads and runs a lot faster and smoother on MM, but the app is the same.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] darktheory:
I have to say I'm loving this phone with MM & I was close to giving up on Sony, which is mad as Z3c is my all time fav phone.

I'm currently having no issues that affect my daily use in a bad way. Lag has gone, which was my main concern.

Occasionally it'll route audio to speakerphone even when earphones are connected (as with lollipop). if that could be fixed this would surpass the z3c for me, but I suspect it's hardware issue.

Too early to tell if battery is better but certainly doesn't seem worse.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] reach3r:
Honestly, I would not think about it much - as long as it does not result in stutters or lags.

Android (being based on Linux) is design to make maximum use of the available memory so keeping memory free is wasting it, yet it does not show to the user what amount of data is potentially unused and only kept in memory because it is not needed otherwise.

Yeah I got the impression as well that after the first boot (after the upgrade) it takes another 15-30 Minutes to really finish all the required procedures potentially plus another reboot.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] pilauda:
I noticed since im on mm that coping files with wifi and es explorer (from phone to pc) is going so slow, not passing 60kb/s, anyone noticed same problem? When im checking wifi conection with speedtest its going ok 5mb/s max of my inet conection.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Smiggg:
When I'm on youtube it doesn't play sounds since I got the upgrade today is anyboy else having any problems with the speakers or sounds not being played
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] uchosen:
Bluetooth after the update has been crap for me. My phone will auto-connect to bluetooth headphones and bluetooth car audio like it should, but no sound will be coming through. I have to toggle bluetooth on and off to get sound to work correctly.

I've tested BT on my lowly Moto E on Lollipop and it has no problems whatsoever. Its maddening. Hope I don't have to wait for 6.0.1 for a fix. :(
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Sadman Khan:
The actual RAM is in Developer Options> Running services and not "Memory"
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] DanielMalmgren:
Can anyone here please tell me if you have a file named /system/media/audio/ui/ChargerPluggedIn.ogg on your phone?

Problem is the stupid sound the phone makes when plugged into the charger. Wakes my wife up

every time

. In Lollipop I simply deleted the sound file (which I

think

was on the path above, I'm just not 100% sure) and that made the sound go away. But you know what? In Marshmallow it seems to work different. It seems if the phone doesn't find the sound file it plays the default ringtone instead. In my case a 4 minutes long mp3 file. My wife wasn't happy at all yesterday night. So my plan now is to put a very short and very silent file in that place, just needs to know if I'm on the exact correct filename :)

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
Why don't you simply disable it in the settings?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] dillalade:
Well going by your screenshot, your clearly using a non native settings app, so that would be Why...
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] DanielMalmgren:
Thanks a lot!

I'd just like to notice to anyone else trying this that it turned out it's not enough replacing with a completely empty file, when I did that it played my default ringtone anyway. Replacing it with a completely silent ogg file (I used this one) worked though, so now my wife can sleep in peace :D

Because I didn't find it in the settings. And I still don't...

/Daniel

edit: Samsung keyboard? I'd guess your printscreen isn't even from a Xperia device, right?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] dillalade:
Nice trickery.

We'd need root for system write privilege's to achieve, correct?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] DanielMalmgren:
Yep, that's correct. Without root it doesn't seem possible at all.

/Daniel
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] supercakefish:
Sorry! You're quite right. I'm getting muddled up with my phones. I thought I was in a Samsung thread. Apologies!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Tom1310:
Oh, okay thanks, good to know ! I didn't see that.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Thistletea:
Got an email from Sony regarding the MM update to my Z5C (bought through Amazon US w/ fingerprint working so I assume its the international version). But I don't see an US release of MM. What gives?

Nvm I see the MM update for the E5803 which is for the Customized US. However my phone model in About shows E5823. Does that mean I don't have the US model of the phone?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] mtbfraser:
Did you make any progress with this? My Bluetooth is also very stuttery since the update.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] evcz:
I was using a sony smartband 2 (swr12)

I have now stopped using that one and moved to a zenwatch 2, unistalled the smartband app (kept lifelog installed) and installed the asus apps.

Now the bluetooth is very stable and there's no more skipping even while doing many things at the same time.

No other change has been on my phone... Just that...

Do you have a bluetooth smartband?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] thedosbox:
Is anyone using Android Auto with their Z5/Z5C on Marshmallow? If so, with what vehicle, and have you had any issues?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] imhuy:
I've been getting the same issue as you. Just now, I was playing through my bluetooth speakers and suddenly the sound completely cuts out. I go and try to toggle the volume up and down and no volume indicator shows up. After about half a minute to a minute the volume indicator appears and the sound comes back. Very strange.

Has anyone noticed a very long delay in bluetooth auto connecting? When my Z3c, when I enter my car, the bluetooth hooks up immediately, within 10 seconds of being in my car. With my Z5c it's a hit or a miss. Sometimes, it won't connect for up to 5 minutes and I'd have to go into my settings and manual connect.

Hopefully, the April update will work out all the kinks.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] uchosen:
Yeah, I feel your pain :( Of all things, Bluetooth is problem. The update has been stellar otherwise.

What's this about an April update?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] imhuy:
Not sure if it's true but I remember reading there's supposed to be an update that brings back STAMINA Mode is April.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] webwude:
To be honest, I don't need a stamina update. Doze works quite well as far as I can see.

How about android security updates? Did Sony commit publicly to provide them (in a timely manner)?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] BlackArtsInc:
I cannot move files from internal storage to my SD card with Root Explorer. Anyone knows how to fix this?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] wild_thing:
Greenify & doze do a much better job for me than stamina.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] imhuy:
The battery is superb for me without messing with battery saving stuff. I just hope that update brings fixes for the bluetooth.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] TheEndHK:
I've also got BT lagging/disconnection with my Sony MW600 and Sony SmartWatch2 but I seems to be only having problem when doing heavy tasks at the background like recording 4K or chrome.

I think it related to poor memory management(looks like lesser free ram in MM) or restricting cpu usage(poor big.little optimizing or poor doze implementing).
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Mafise:
i still cant get the update, is that normal?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Procrustinator:
Just my two cents worth. I did a dirty upgrade, and after that my battery life went to pot. It was ok after I first disconnected it from the charger, but after a few hours I could almost watch the battery level drop. I did a factory reset, and after that my battery drain has become acceptable. If anyone else is having this problem, I'd recommend trying a factory reset.

So frustrating waiting for the EE update in the UK when it's out on other networks! And no idea when it might turn up. Wary of unofficial methods as it's also my work phone with Intune installed.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Sadman Khan:
You can't update on unlocked bootloader unless you manually do it via flashtool
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] rebecker:
Battery Meter for Doze?

I'm generally very satisfied with MM. The only issue is battery drain at night; 9%. That's 3 times the average before the update. Is there a battery monitoring app that can show the theoretical bursts of activity while Doze is operating during the night? I don't see any odd app activity in the standard battery reports, but it really doesn't show usage bursts.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] mtbfraser:
My battery has really deteriorated - today I've used 60% with only 38 minutes SOT, also noticed the phone getting warm. Going to do a clean flash now the UK update is out. Hopeful it will sort it out.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Bialynia:
After a week of MM I'm very happy at how seamless it is. I've had no issues, although I haven't used Bluetooth yet. Most importantly I haven't had slowdowns and stuttering like on L. This is now a GREAT phone, finally better than my z3c.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] PolliSoft:
I have the exact same problem, phone gets very hot and sluggish after almost no usage, and I can feel the battery drain super fast. If a factory reset helps, let us know. :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] eivissa:
For me the MM update changed the phone completely. From a very sluggish and annoying experience to a great and fast phone. Everything now opens instantly, no laggy scrolling anymore. The camera is not blazingly fast, but still fast. No issues with the bluetooth connection in my car. Great battery life.

If the phone didnt have this ugly "brick/edgy" look that I just cant get used to, I would have a stronger urge not to sell it. The new S7 is lying next to it now and while the S7 is just far too big, it still has a much nicer design. The next few days I will be busy comparing them both in day to day usage and then one of 'em has to go...
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Enrico2828:
Would be very interesting to have us updated about your day to day comparison... Thank you!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] puiatmp:
Hello, tks for your reply...

How i do that ???

Only flash the TFT file via flashtool ?? Or need to flassh boot.img and/or recovery.img ???

Regards.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Sadman Khan:
Just the ftf on flashtool via flashmode. You can access flashmode by connecting your phone to pc while holding the "volume down" button (phone has to be turned off by the way). Also you need to install the fastboot and flashmode drivers from flashtool>drivers first. If it's Windows 7, then it's easy. For Windows 8/8.1/10,you need to disable driver signature verification before you install the drivers. You can look it up on Google (as in the method to disable the driver verification). Flashtool has a built-in app called Xperifirm which you can use to download the firmware files of your choice, which will automatically be converted into an ftf.

Good luck!

It looks like nobody has the problem I have...

My wifi does not connect automatically to my home network (5 GHz). It gets stuck on "Scanning..." Solution: switch wifi off and back on, or click on "Scanning..." and pick my network from the list. But at the moment I have to remember this every single time. Reboot does not help. I dirty flashed. No other problems so far... Dutch phone, Nordic FTF.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] MO3iusONE:
To be honest with you, I like the look for the z3c better, but I like the frosted glass on the z5c more. I mainly got the z5c for the fingerprint reader aha.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] darktheory:
I was having similar WiFi issues and this helped me..

Switch off 5ghz on your router, so your phone only connects to 2.4ghz and change broadcast channel (I changed mine to 6) - since then I have not had a single WiFi dropout on this phone.

Might not fix your issue but worth a try maybe.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] raytheblacksmith:
Thanks for the response! Unfortunately the router has to stay on 5 GHz, otherwise it interfers with Bluetooth on my Hackintosh.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] zwirek75:
I am having an issue with FM radio application - time to time the phone becomes laggy and GUI stops responding.

It never happened on Lollipop ...
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] I.T. Backstage:
I'm using Android Auto with a Pioneer Headunit. Unfortunately there's a really big delay when using online services like voice recognition and Google Maps Navigation since the Marshmallow Update. I will try to reset my phone to factory defaults shortly. Apart from that I'm not facing any issues.
