[Xperia Z2 General] Don MC:
Don't you have to be rooted to install TWRP? A normal (unrooted) FTF won't do in that case.
[Xperia Z2 General] adop40:
I think the same about it. You have to be rooted to install the recovery.

The question is: Is there anyone who installed the new MM the same way like me and it works?

The other possibility is to install the Beta from Niaboc79 and then update to the new version.

Google translate not working for me on this site... I really hope for some things with future MM updates. Better animations. Stamina mode. Improved WiFi connections. Better Bluetooth connectivity for headphones and speakers. Improved UI performance and multi tasking. There's a long way to go to match lollipop performce... Is there really a reason to upgrade to MM. What's the benifit here? I've already downgraded to lollipop cus MM is a major disappointment...

One thing that is back is Microphone Noise Suppression under call settings. I had sorely missed this feature for last few days. I believe so is Xperia Answering Machine. I would have loved if they had gotten the burst mode back in the camera, but Sony being Sony is impossible to decipher.

Stagefright?

Question for those of you who have upgraded, what does the Stagefright detector app say?

I've not installed MM on my phone yet as it didn't seem worth it, however I picked up a secondhand phone for a friend and put the 570 firmware on it thinking that would be the most painless for me to have to support. Out of interest I ran that app and it said it was more vulnerable than the 232 I've got on mine.

The phone isn't here now so I can't run more tests to make sure I'm not losing my mind, just thought I should ask and see what others find.

Cheers.
[Xperia Z2 General] dex87xda:
Looool
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
Well that sucks, how on earth did they manage to make it worse with an upgrade?!

From memory it was 12 critical and 11 high on my friends one, my phone is only showing 1 critical on the 232 firmware.
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
Stagefright?

I've got my friends phone with me now so I don't have to go from memory, it had an update available which turns out to be the 23.5.A.0.575 version.

So somehow whoever compiles the firmware at Sony has used old sources to compile the latest Android version!

At least I think that's how it works, the patches to fix these bugs aren't implemented on whatever they've complied from. That's rather embarrassing for them.

Edit. [MENTION=359497]jerpelea[/MENTION] do you have a way of letting them know which is more efficient than the average user?
[Xperia Z2 General] vikrant7027:
Does kingroot works on 575 fw?
[Xperia Z2 General] mischlikl:
Stamina

Is Stamina mode implemented in new firmware? I don't like Google's Doze mode, makes me feel like not being able to control when my phone saves battery and when not. Moreover I need Ultra Stamina mode because I'm visiting a festival for 3 days and don't wanna buy a power bank.
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
I'm not seeing a Stamina setting just Battery saver as shown in this picture.

Not sure why you feel you need it though, you know you're going away and won't be able to charge so just manually turn off the things which stamina mode would turn off for you.

Otherwise known as using your head and taking responsibility for your choices.

You don't really know what you are talking about. When I looked into those vulnerabilities, they have been discovered this year. They are different to the original stagefright vulnerabilities.

A bit embarrassing for you.
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
So they're different vulnerabilities which the 23.4.A.1.232 firmware wasn't susceptible to but the new one is? Does that make it better or worse?

Not feeling embarrassed here. I've never claimed to know everything, always ready to learn more.
[Xperia Z2 General] o0 Matt 0o:
As an example cve-2016-0816 appears to only affect Android 6.0+.

For info

There will always be software flaws, just don't browse to dodgy websites, download software from questionable sources or open messages from people you don't know and you'll mitigate everything to do with stagefright. Also, make all apps ask for root permission, disable unknown sources and remove all apps from device administor to mitigate other factors and apply updates.

You only know about stagefright because people talk about it and it's in the media. What about the other 70 vulnerabilities identified for Android 6.0 registered in the last 3 Months?
[Xperia Z2 General] Cluey:
I didn't know there were 70ish in the last three months.

It sounds like they should have made a different app to detect these ones if they're no longer part of the Stagefright library?

I don't go to dodgy places or sideload that many apps, only one I can think of apart from ones to gain root access here.

To do that I go back versions as I don't really trust King* root exploits.

I've actually been wondering if I need to worry about root at all now, I'm only using it to backup some app data but they're getting much better at doing them with Android itself now. The only other thing I'd use it for is uninstalling apps to gain more space, I haven't done that yet as I've not got around to it. It's complained about space a little recently but clearing the cache seems to shut it up for a bit.

[MENTION=5955222]Nit Patel[/MENTION]

if you have installed a custom recovery/modified systems files or have rooted your phone, then you’ll maybe not be able to get the official firmware version over-the-air (OTA).

With computer with Pc Companion or Xperia Companion, should not be a problem, but you will lose root and recovery.

You just can flash prerooted MM from recovery.

I'm from the UK, have a sim-free Z2 purchased directly from retailer Clove, model D6503 and i am STILL on Android Lollipop 5.1.1, build number 23.4.A.1.264

Can someone please explain to me why i haven't received the update to Android Marshmallow? I've had nothing OTA nor through Sony PC Companion but others received the update weeks and weeks ago!

Why is this happening to my Z2, i don't understand it. Why am i last and still waiting? When will Android 6.0 arrive? Is anyone else from the UK in the same boat???
[Xperia Z2 General] adam_purkis:
Yep I'm exactly the same, bought mine from clove too! But it's the generic UK firmware is lagging behind, all carriers in the UK have now finally updated to marshmallow, so I imagine within the next few days we should get the update

How do you know we'll be getting the update in the next few days, has someone said something? Been confirmed by Sony? It's been over a month, it's ridiculous generic UK SIM-FREE firmware is the the last to receive 6.0 when all the carriers updated all their Z2's weeks ago.

My d6503 on UK unbranded firmware is now downloading ota. I didn't get a notification and had to use software update and manually refresh to get it.
[Xperia Z2 General] bombdog:
Likewise I got the .575 update on my unbranded, totally stock UK Z2. I got mine via OTA notification about 23.00 last night. Update has been working well, I particularly like the new animations on Home launcher. I also got an improved score on Antutu from 49k to 52k (for what it's worth). Main disappointment is the withdrawn support for my PS3 controller, that was cheeky Sony.. very cheeky. Battery life is much the same. Not much else to report really.

[Xperia Z2 General] bombdog:
As I have an unlimited 4G data plan I very rarely use WiFi at home, however I've just turned it on and it's a lot quicker in terms of switching from mobile data to WiFi. Just tested walking around the house and it's actually no where near as good in terms of range, my flat is small and I have a Z3 Tablet compact (admittedly that is a beast for WiFi strength) and the Z2 isn't anywhere near connecting whilst the Z3TC has full bars and a solid connection. Is this a known issue?

On Marshmallow .575, everything seems to be fine. But some unfair things to Camera.

>> No Burst mode (was useful to take burst shot in good resolution, unlike timeshift burst)

>> No SteadyShot on still camera mode (important when shooting on high MP, especially for close objects/Macro shots)

>> No brightness options in manual mode

>> removed even camera opening sound :)

BTW new Camera UI is really nice and HDR and SteadyShot together working really well while shooting 1080p (@30fps) video on low light conditions.

I hope Sony would be aware of that through feedbacks from beta tester- users.

via ➧ Xperia™
[Xperia Z2 General] bombdog:
Another feature that's been removed is the auto rotate feature on the home screen. This was particularly useful when putting the phone in the magnetic charging dock, or when I placed my phone in the dock in my car or the grip on my bike. In fact it was useful for lots of reasons so for it to be removed is a bit stupid Sony.
[Xperia Z2 General] ashishkr:
Yeah Right.

I think this is because of latest Xperia Home launcher. I remember, as soon as I installed this Marshmallow launcher on Lollipop 5.1 my home screen were no more rotating and unfortunately I couldn't go back to any old Xperia launcher version due to my non-rooted device.

I am also dissapoiting about steadyshot and software image stabilisation and brigtness for video recording.

Sony must fix that.

Also,wifi strenght is poor.

Good things is a little better sound quality over the headphones and that so basicly,nothing special.

Also multitasking is bad,very bad,phone cant keep in memory more than 250 mb,and on 5.1.1 was keeping up to 1gb.

But,i still love Z2,he is my favorite Sony cell.

If you are rooted and have a custom recovery youcan solve these two problems.

1. Memory issue.

Install Kernal Adiuitor from play store and grant root acess. Then from the slide out menu go to Low memory killer and tap on the light option.

The default settings are on aggressive. Also enable set on boot.

2. Camera
