How much battery life did you get? Mine has improved... 5-6 hours of sot
[Xperia Z3 General] bigbossa:
Hi all

I'm have D6653 on 5.1.1 in the UK... No ota mm update yet, anyone know where I can find MM that I can flash that will work in the uk
[Xperia Z3 General] doomed151:
There's an Xposed module called HeadsOff which disables heads up notifications and works on MM.
[Xperia Z3 General] Xperia U Lover:
Thanks but I need module that when i swipe notificatoom left, the notificatiom goes back to panel and it is not dismissed

Flashed BAL with full wipe for cleaning old trash :) . So far so good: su available, twrp accessible. Basically I used the same method as on the screenshot in this post, but I additionally checked "Legacy mode" too.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Perfect, thanks!
[Xperia Z3 General] panchuckles:
Its not necessary uninstall xposed before flash mm.

My experience:

On 5.1.1 with xposed, flash MM (and apply factory reset), then flash xposed for MM, no problem at all.
[Xperia Z3 General] Licaon_Kter:
Great, 10x for the details.
[Xperia Z3 General] doomed151:
You can just swipe up to keep the notification; swiping left or right clears it.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
It is because Xposed framework is installed in system partition which is replaced when you flash MM.

Got OTA from ". 264" LP to MM today, Germany customised O2 downloaded (1GB) in 3,5 minutes over LTE. If some users have experienced unusually long download times, it can be accounted for either connection quality or some Internet connection problem.

---------- Post added at 12:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

Maybe it is just to easy, but anyway with a bit of time passed, I offer my apologies if I sounded as like spilling oil into fire. Anyway I keep my stance for that such outburst of frustration over Sony performance simply don't have a right place here. As written in other post today, I downloaded OTA Android M over LTE today in less than 4 minutes, so I would suggest that you either had some connection problem, or it may well be that ota server was busy serving too many downloads due to fact that the update was fresh and high demand.

As for the fact that you already have a second nick here, your personal thing. I have only one, as at all online services, even showing my real name. I never got it why people hide their identity, but it is off topic here. If you agree, let's burry the war axe.

Quick question since I haven't being able to make the prerooted file from the Ncb update, do you think Ami can get in trouble if I use the US prerooted to make a dirty flash update or will I have less issues if I use the Ncb file? My guess here is that since it's the same area file it should be safer to go with the Ncb update without making a full wipe.

The RAM management is a disaster. Apps needing to be refreshed constantly.. Also what's with the memory overview in general? Average use over a certain number of hours instead of just being able to see the exact amount of RAM being used (and by what) at any given time? Ridiculous.

Still no Update

Hey Girls and Boys, please can anybody help me? I'm from Germany and have Z3 with an unbranded customized FR (1288-5501 R7C) Version. When do I get the Update on MM. Is the Rollout so long?

not sure if it's just me, but i tried several MM cutom roms, and they mostly have bad camera quality, the camera is at most times unable to focus correctly and images comes out a little out of focus and with some noise...i thought it was hardware but i reverted to LP and the camera is fine,

i'm not sure itf it's the roms i tried or it's an issue with this Official MM release ...

if someone hae any suggestion it's most welcomed, Camera is kinda important to me and i can't use MM as long as this issue persists .
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Can someone help me and share a prerooted file for the NCB version since I don't have a Windows machine to build it by myself. Thanks for your help and believe I don't want to sound lazy but I really don't have access to a Windows machine to use the prf tool so maybe someone already made a prf of the NCB version.
[Xperia Z3 General] aigaming:
For me all mm rooms have jitter and camera is also slower then on lp;) Mm def.needs polishing;)

Here is my bad exp with sony''s mm in comparison to polished lp

1.Scrolling in most browsers is laggy(jittery)

2.Closing and opening apps animation is laggy(jiterry)

3.Camera viewfinder is laggy and taking pic's takes a second more which results in out of focus pic's sometimes

4.Lockscreen unlocking know's to lag sometimes for no reason(no background process working)

Apart from that,battery is nice for me,i like the new features and overall mm rom feeling;)
[Xperia Z3 General] artlov:
This one:

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B0TijKPCZATTQnVWQmlOVzU0cms&usp=sharing

Not tested, but this rom cooked in the same way as my BAL version. Used tools and files:

FlashTool 0.9.20

XperiFirm 4.9.1

PRFCreator 1.3 (Kernel, FOTAkernel, Modem, LTALabel, Legacy mode)

Can anybody help help me with whether I should update to Marshmallow?

I've heard about bad multitasking and phone dialer lag. Some saying MM is faster and others are saying its slower.

What are the Pros and Cons?

Is there any sign of a bug fix rolling out?
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Thank you very much! Just one question, what does the legacy mode means? What's the difference?
[Xperia Z3 General] artlov:
See answer from PRFCreator change log there.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Thanks, I'm already downloading the file. I will flash it today and a I will let you know how it went.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
One last question, when updating do I have to put all the apps back in the internal memory or can I leave them in the SD Card? I read somewhere in the forums that MM is not letting apps write in the external memory so I'm not sure I'd we still have the On SD Card option in the apps settings.

Also why does some prf updates have a FOTAkernel.elf file and others don't like the US update file?
[Xperia Z3 General] artlov:
I don't know, because I made a full wipe to avoid any old trash in new installation ;) If you want to keep old apps, I think it's a good idea to move all apps out from sdcard. In MM path to the external sdcard changed.

About FOTA - I have no idea.

I just prepared requesed rom for you in the same way as I did BAL for myself and I haven't any problem with it.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Thanks! Will move the file to internal memory to avoid issues.

I just got my new z3 a few days ago, with lollipop pre installed. I checked and it had central European customization software, which still isn't getting MM. So I used flahtool to install mm, and only to find out that the Baltic region I used does not have the cost saving option when writing accented sms... It is very cost saving for my language (serbian). Does anyone have idea which other version might have this option? Or is mm left without it?

Finally last night I updated to the NCB prf thanks to [MENTION=1424812]artlov[/MENTION] and everything went fine with the dirty flash. Just a couple of things I want to share:

-No easy way to move apps to SD card, had to install App2sd.

-Additional row in home screen, it's new for me, haven't tried this in the beta update.

-Can't find the utility used to enter recovery or and app to achieve it, have to do it manually.

-The update changed the SD Card name, I was lucky I moved all the apps to internal memory before making the update because something was going to mess everything up

-Phone shortcut no longer in homescreen

-The H+ and H signal logos in the status bar are huge!

-The notifications light doesn't work

So far everything is fine, no major issues besides these details but I can't wait for Sony to ship the new MM update with the Bluetooth fix and the weak wifi reception issue also fixed because both really suck.
[Xperia Z3 General] artlov:
Good!

It's possible to get back.

Settings -> Applications -> Gear wheel on the top -> Default applications -> Assistant and voice input, tap on the word Assistant itself -> No.
[Xperia Z3 General] chepeliyas:
Thanks again! That gets the phone shortcut back bit I also lose Google now. I will try this to see how it goes.

Battery drain

is someome here that have some battery drain like me?

its the mobile radio active bug..

i flashed from 5.1.1 with bug to 6.0.1 prerooted - bug is still there.

then i wiped all, system data internal storage etc.. everything clean, without sd, and still the same problem.

i flashed from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 to 6.0.1 and still the problem. my family doesnt have this bug- but the internet says its there and google doesnt do anything..

have someone some idea? with android n so android 7 it was there also, only with kitkat 4.4.4 i have awesome battery standby..

i dont think its an app, because i flashed clean, and waited over night.. still 7% battery drain

i flashed so often this rom, redownloaded etc, repaired with sony campanion, nothing helps..

i cant stay on android mm with this bug because after 1 day the phone is empty, with kitkat it was 2 maybe 3 days.. i had 1 week standby time, with mm its 1 day..

also apps that i dont open the day drain battery, for example facebook and spotify..

someone has an advice for me?
[Xperia Z3 General] arminbih:
Give some more data like screenshot of battery drain also try to analize battery drain with some apps like "Batterydrain" and "wakelock detector" from playstore then post results. Also it is possible that your battery is defective or old and needs replacing.
[Xperia Z3 General] jacko02:
I cant Post Screenshots because im New..

The wakelockdetector says no specific app

If i kill all apps the Google play Service is using mobile Radio..but its also whatsapp and so on..

With kitkat is all fine so why should the battery be destroyd? I tested These mobile Radio active fixes.. They dont really work..

All my friends got marshmallow now and got awesome battery-standby.. How can i delete this Bug? Does i need to wipe something else?

Greetings
[Xperia Z3 General] arminbih:
If all else fail get external sd card maybe save rom on there, then clean all cache, data, system together with internal storage, and flash from external card good luck

I'm back on Lollipop too, after 2 hours with MM few days ago. I had no problems so far with battery drains, but i'm not a hardcore user, i limited the CPU ( in every FW ) to 1190 MHz and i use DS battery saver to turn off WiFi, mobile data, BT, GPS if display is off, i've got no Facebook or similar stuff, i'm not interested in. Only using Google Maps sometimes, to look for something, but i can't live with the restrictions for SD-cards in MM. I could, maybe, if the "adopt SD" feature would be available, but it's impossible atm, i tried various ways, the results are not satisfying me, the internal SD was not mounted anymore and the size of my external SD was wrong every time. Tried with terminal ( ... partition private etc ) and with various apps.

Maybe there's a workaround and i simply don't find it?
[Xperia Z3 General] Bonfaina:
Well, I flashed MM through Flahstool (Customized DE) doing all wipes (formatted SD card too through PC) and 0 issues.

Ok, it shows less WiFi signal but speed is the same, battery became a bit better (from 91% to 30% with 5 hours SoT with 1 hour playing Summoners War).

Im ok with this update, so I will stay MM.

Just cant wait Android N, the preview had awesome stuff but gave me a few errors :\
