Xperia z5C

Just installed Central Europe 1 version. Before that i had Russian. Cupple of days passed and no problems so far. StaminaMode is finaly here so im very happy - battery life seems to be better. Maybe im wrong but i think that device is not overheating like before (but it still does).

Ps. Before flashing be sure that u have newest version of flashtool because it cases problems sometimes like in my case.

Could someone please quickly answer my slightly stupid question. I have an international (E5823) model in the US using T-mobile, it was updated to 32.1.A.1.185 OTA not so long ago. Should I expect it to be updated to 32.2.A.0.224 OTA at some point in the near future, or should I just try to flash the .ftf myself? And if so any suggestion for the correct one to flash if I want to keep fingerprint reader etc. but use T-mobile in the US? Many thanks.

I would wait for the nordic 224 file to be available and just flash that.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] billbond4:
any way to remove the icon for Stamina on the notification bar?
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] harryw66:
+1 if anyone knows the answer.

FYI: I got my upgrade this morning OTA - I am on Vodafone UK contract.

Stamina mode is Looking good so far - battery is 87% after 7hrs - normally would be down to around 65-70% by now.

Ofcourse, blacklisted apps is just for background syncs.

[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Mathman85:
This isn't the case on my Z1 Compact, nor was it the case before Marshmallow took away Stamina.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] cloggdbladdr:
I think you confused with Stamina mode before M and current M. M has new feature called Doze, which basically Stamina mode for all device with Android M.

No reason for Sony to put their Stamina mode in M. In new firmware 224, Sony decided to rename Battery Saver mode to Stamina mode, so thats why you get reduced screen brightness, no/less vibrations etc.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Mathman85:
I'm familiar with Doze, but that's only active when the phone is asleep and motionless. Stamina mode on the Z1 Compact was inherently different (namely, the device needs to be neither asleep nor motionless--just have the screen off), and it was fantastic. I'm just frustrated that they've added a feature with that name that is utterly useless since you can't use it constantly. That was the benefit... you could leave Stamina mode on, use your phone like normal (including SMS notifications, of course), and get two days of use out of it without even trying.

Updated from NOBA to customized UK today without wipe, first thing I've noticed is that the ram management is a lot better... By around 0.4 MB
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] g27:
Update today great
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] rolo143:
Does anyone still has the "fingerprint hardware not available" problem sometimes when trying to unlock phone by fingerprint? I thought this was fixed in this update, but I still have it sometimes, and the only solution I've found is rebooting the device.

Also, do you guys think this will be the final update for this phone? I would like to have Android N in the near future, but I think that'll be only possible by installing a custom rom. Hopefully Sony don't forget about z5c users. :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] doclloyd:
Ha! I noticed very similar RAM usage on first reboot after the firmware update this morning (Customized UK ROM here). Some things do seem zippier initially, such as loading the main Snapchat interface. Quick camera test felt fine too. Bluetooth audio testing will be happening on the drive home and with other devices at my house.

I will say, having all the latest emoji such as the taco and middle finger is also nice. At least I'll be able to see them when others send them to me!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] imhuy:
Checking back in after owning a Galaxy S6. If you've read any of my comments early on in this thread, you'll know that I had a deep hatred for this phone.

First off, the Galaxy S6 is snappy as hell. Booting the camera is a dream, switching tasks, initial app boots, etc are all speedy. The fingerprint sensor works way better than the Z5. However, the battery life is a nightmare. Unplugged at 8am and it'll need a charge a little after noon. With quick charge, it's okay but if you're out for a whole day without your charger or a plug, it's not gonna make it.

I was just about to make my decision to live with the S6 until I booted the Z5C and saw I got the update. Did a factory restore, installed the update, did another factory restore just to be sure, and started using it for about 3 days. Other than the fingerprint sensor being about as bad as it was before the update, the phone works great now.

- Bluetooth runs perfectly, auto connection problems when getting in my car, no stuttering when using the phone while playing music

- Camera/snapchat doesn't destroy the phone and boots quick

- Loading/switching apps is quick

- No need to reboot my phone because of memory leaks for the past 3 days (I used rebooting it twice a day before). I've been power using my phone just to make sure it's not a fresh restore illusion. Also, had every single app installed and set up again from before the restore.

I would definitely suggest installing this update and doing a factory restore.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] David Horn:
Android Pay still broken on Customised UK and 3 SE. The thought does cross my mind that it's the dirty flashing that broke it in the first place, but Google seemed fairly interested and asked me to send them a bug report to track down the exact fault.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] emmanuelkeyz:
I'm also on Customised UK and on 3 Network.

I thought I was the only one!!!!! It hardly ever works for me now....I'm afraid to try it due to the embarrassment of it not working....before the update it was working flawlessly....
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Adeltron:
I'm in US on AT&T with international e5823 model. I have not received .224 OTA yet either... getting very frustrated by this. Not willing to flash the update because of lack of know-how and laziness to teach myself.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ksc6000:
Honestly, it is extreme laziness because flashing a stock ROM is as easy as pie. You install flashtool. You download the FTF of the region/update you want. You start the flashing process in flashtool using the FTF file. You power off your phone, hold the volume up or down button (forget which one), and plug it in to your computer. That's it. It starts flashing. There is really nothing to it.

hi anyone have problem with long 4K video more than 10Min? ( i heard some ppl have that problem with new firmware i cant find that post)

also how about overheating ?

antutu benchmark score?

and how about battery?

i've also heard new stamina mode worse then old stamina and dose

now i lose 2% over night (which is great) only wifi off the rest is on (using widget pro)

i just received this week via OTA but im afraid to update.

the only good feedback i heard its abit faster cam app

and "do not disturb" have unmute option after alarm clock again,
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] TheEndHK:
Battery drain seems to be a bit faster during use but 6.0.1 battery better at idle to me, I think ended up just same.

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

I've owned S6 for almost a year. In my experiences, S6 battery is fine for medium to light user. My SOT is just slightly worse than Z5c or at identical level. But if you are heavy user, due to the bad memory management present on S6, the battery can be quite badly when doing heavy tasks(whatsapp also consumed quite a lots of battery nowadays).

Camera is better on S6 on average but I real hate the over warm white balance, the color is so fake.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] David Horn:
Definitely worth giving Google a call, then - once they realise it's happening with more than one device it'll provide an incentive to get it fixed!

https://support.google.com/androidpay/answer/6289427?hl=en&ref_topic=6289369#contact=1

Just click "Call me" and they respond within a minute and even better, you get someone who can "talk Android" and will quickly get through to the bug report stage.

hey i start to update 30min ago to 224

is stuck on 99% the last 20 min..

i should do something (updating using OTA)

EDIT: NEVER MIND PHONE JUST REBOOTED, NOW OPTIMIZED APPS

murphy law.. should've wait more 5min
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] drrobo:
Ok so I'm far too impatient - I'm going to flash the update, since the OTA is still a no show (I flashed plenty of things on my Z3C, so I think I'm good). I'd just love to know how do I find out which region I already have on my E5823, and could someone suggest the .224 I should flash if I want my fingerprint reader and all the good bands for T-mobile here in the US. Thanks!
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Superrman:
DO NOT UPGRADE WAIT FOR NEXT UPDATE

... upgrade to 244 was total mistake...

1.drain overnight is 8% instead

2

% ,

2.drain while gaming is at least twice faster! up to four times, about 1% per min!!

3.benchmarks GFX,Antutu are up to 30% worse!

70K instead of 90K average

4.no details battery static (wifi gps were signal..)

stamina mode no really helping like b4...

5. also record calls does not work well again...

the only "good things"

more free RAM average 500MB free instead of 100MB like it was on LP

("good") quotation because it doesn't effect performance for the better ( i guess the device used Zram)

also DND auto unmute after alram clock is back again, and its abit more comfortable if you silence at night and don't want to forget to unmute

but then again.. u just could setit for number of the hours you usually sleep

getting worse eveyupdate.... if it wont get update soon i will downgrade

i hope it possible and hope next update will be better and soon (and not after 1 year when N will be out///

like they say if its work dont fix it....
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] TheEndHK:
Never have such problem. Did you full wipe before install? I installed a clean Xpower 3.0 rom(.224 base) got a satisfied result.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] LT__Gruber:
How safe is flash this update, we will have future ota updates? I'm in Portugal and no signal of OTA.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] francois64:
I also lack battery détails but stop complaining, there are a lot of app that can give you them.

I personaly use GSam battery and that's it.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Yakkosmurf:
I flashed Customized NL last night, and I'm with T-Mobile in the US. Cellular performance is the same as Customized NOBA on the .185 version. No issues with the fingerprint reader.

I've found this update to be a good one so far. Much better battery life, without using stamina. I like the new icons. Overall, no real changes, but I wasn't experiencing problems before that needed fixing.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Superrman:
yup i have widget pro

PS: today i tried shutoff Data and wifi b4 going to bad

result arent bad.

lost 3% overnight (8.5hrs)

almost same as b4

and overall lost 32% on 24hrs after full charge and average use (without gaming) only calls and whatsapp and abit internet "screen on" took most of the battery (40%)
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Mathman85:
My battery life has gone to **** with this update. I used to be able to go the entire night and wake up with no more than 1% battery loss, but now it drains no less than 5% even with stamina mode on. Just saw 11% vanish in a little over an hour of hardly any use (a few text messages).

Will be doing a factory reset sometime this week to see if that resolves it. Sucks, because other aspects of the phone seem improved (camera seems faster, for example).
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] Yakkosmurf:
I did a wipe and clean install of this new update, and I found my battery life a lot better. Just as a data point for you.

Hi,

Is there a way to root the new upgraded Tab s2 T819N or the T813N?

Just received it today and want to root but can't find not much on these new tab s2's

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] York2k16:
I don't have the device (yet), but the new Snapdragons are going to be rootable with Chainfire SuperSU zip when a custom recovery like TWRP is available.

The Galaxy A9 Pro has almost the same specs as the the new Tab S2: Same CPU/Chipset and same Android Version out-of-the-box (Marshmallow). I've seen a video on Youtube on how to root the Galaxy A9 Pro and maybe, just maybe, the TWRP for it is compatible with the newer versions of the Tab S2. Feel free to try at your own risk. I would risk it by myself, but as I've said, I don't have the device yet.

When you got this ir-minijack accesory, my guess would be that it should work on audio to get it working, just as my soldered version did. I only never used an app for that.

Hello

I would like to backup the current firmware my 1020 is using (Lumia Black), to be able to flash this very same version back, in case I have problems or don't like Cyan or Denim.

How do I do that? I read on https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...88f-e71a-421d-9339-0450ff89b628?page=3&auth=1 that :"don't flash a dumped ffu (from ffureader mode of a working device), as even though it might work, DPP will conflict and phone OVK will be invalidated, requiring you to obtain and enter a PVK to add MSA/access store/etc"

Is there a right way to do that with thor2? Can I get more information about backing up the DPP, OVK and PVK? Anything else I should be aware of?

If there is no way, how can I download an old version (lumia black or another WP8.0) for a Telus RM877, product code 059T790?

The only link I see on http://www.lumiafirmware.com/ser/RM-877/guid/059T790 is 3051.50009.1424.0000 which is cyan, while I think I need 3051.40000.1347.1001

I'm thinking of cooking a custom rom following http://xdaforums.com/windows-phone-8/development/windows-phone-internals-unlock-t3257483 but that would be quite complicated to just backup an old version :(
