Nougat makes my device feel like a whole new phone..I like it.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
New build got certified 32.3.A.0.378

Ha ha ha ha Soooo called incomplete nougat!!!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
So, there is a new release?

Which are the changelogs? :confused:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
Changelogs can be published along with the update.. Yes!! In ~2 weeks we can see the update
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
I really hope that Sony has corrected the crap of the disabled cores :fingers-crossed: because it's really ridiculous thing.

Then apparently there are still some bugs to be fixed ... I see. ;)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
Ha ha ha!! They won't gonna do that!! Cores restriction enabld to control the heat!!! we can only see some minor improvements and lag fixes!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
But control the heat with "software" settings? With a serious "power management"?? Why not? :confused::confused:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
Yah!!! It can be possible!! But it won't gonna be implemented I think_ since stamina has lots of customization along with doze included
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
What a pity :(

So, Nougat at the maximum system power is possible only on custom ROM, I suppose..because on 'stock' it's a quad core version of z3 plus...:(
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] yxtl:
hello, its any chance to make all 8 cores working ? with script and root maybe? Sony make a fraud here sell quadcores phone at price of octacores
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Wing00w0:
the problem it's that a full power you will burn your hand jeje but i thing that getting a old update wit 6 cores could be good, really i don't know i dont like the feel of a lot of things and cometimes my touch is too sensitive and sometimes dont feel my finger, i still thinking to go back to mm :S
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] AG Themes:
They totally ruined device by nougat update.. Backed to Marshmallow.. -_-
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
I think u may gonna change ur mind with. 368 build!!! It's getting gud response from the users!! No more lags!! Some reported that big cores r working when there's an app to use them (it needs to keep the pressure on big cores)!! more battery friendly!!!
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] AG Themes:
-Actually they underclocked a57 cores @ 1.56 ghz from 2.0 ghz. Thats ridiculous.

-Album Pics clearing time just insane sometime it takes 8-10 secs to clean

-Lockscreen is fixed upto some extend but now also it creates problem in swiping up lockscreen
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
Ha ha ha yah.... All cores r working under extent pressure (on. 368) but the ugly thing is _they got underclocked to 1.5..... Let's wait for. 368!!!! It's getting good response everywhere _ it may gonna arrive in this week _ I mailed Sony technical team and they arranged a callback where I explained almost every bug to them!! They took my feedback and suggested me to wait for next update (.368)
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
So, we have to wait next update...:confused:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
AFAIK .378 seems to be revamped nougat with a size of morethan 1gb.... We can consider this as a third nougat release for 810 socs by Sony..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Pwruser:
Seems Sony pulledoff the update again in noba region and builds with. 376 may not gonna see. 378 (Since devices which got 378 was directly upgraded from MM and not from 376)

_Either we can call this as carrier mediated update_

Edit#

Meanwhile this happens with my Xperia companion!!! Ha ha ha ha undefined version
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] asking:
VOLTE update for indian version? Can you confirm?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] ATomCZ:
When I'm playing some game on the phone it is a little bit hot, but this is not new, it is was the same in the 6. But now, after upgrade to 7, when I run for example Hangouts after game it will display me dialog, that phone is too hot and it close Hangouts. But if I run the game again, it normally works. So I'm able to play 3D game, but I'm not able to write message in hangouts, which doesn't make sense.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] story:
Bootloader Unlocked

TA backup

If I flash Nougat TFT, I can flash a root kernal, restore TA, and everything will be like stock right?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] cpgr:
why night mode isnt availiable on this update?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
For who remain on Nougat firmware, after days of use, could you share your impressions?

Because my z3+ with MarshMallow goes well: audio, camera, battery, performances...and based on previous posts about impression on this firmware release (.376) seems that stay on MM is the best choice, because seems that Sony doesn't provide additional firmware currently.:(

So, I'm bored by the update notification, I'm thinking if you should or not to do this step (update to Nougat) ... I'm a bit confused though ... someone who is using nougat since it was released, it may say something seen long-term use?:confused:
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] kiosk123:
You just get notification about update, but my Z3+ after month doesnt have Nougat... I will install on your side at the moment when it arrived :D

Just install it and do factory reset....it will fix some problems after update...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] Wing00w0:
I really like the performance before the update yes the heat was a little more and the lockscreen was easy to unlock now I have to swipe from bottom to all the way up if I try to dour from the middle I can't unlock it no matters if it's fast or slow some times I have to try 4 or 6 times, it's annoying :S

And hanging up a call in mm brings a menu of calling again or message etc it was awesome for me now it's gone it's a pain in the ass make a redial

From there I really like the notification and I am still on nougat for that only for that but still thinking about returning to mm
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] iods:
My z3+ is going silent now all on its own until i reboot it, after then N update
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] AntwnisGr:
That happens to me only when my Sony SmartWatch is connected to the phone. I also use Bluetooth headset but no problem. It is confirmed that this happens only when I connect SmartWatch 3,after a day use. All notifications go down..
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
Please tell me about latest nougat for z3 plus...I mean 32.3.A.2.33

Camera?

Battery

Bluetooth and other problems of previous version?

Overall system performance?

Because in other discussion on other site, seems that .33 version goes similar to previous 376...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] iods:
no for me it just happens , without connecting anything , .. it just go silent all of a sudden no notifications , no alarms , nothing at all and then it gets back normal on it's own or after I reboot , this only happen after the last nougat update
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] kiosk123:
Camera is good, here are some photos...

Battery is good only when you are on WiFi and read the web, if you are on 4G then battery goes down quickly...I dont see any problems with Bluetooth...System is running smooth, no lags, problems...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
Thank you for your answer.

I ask about camera because in previous nougat release of Sony seems that is worst compared to MarshMallow.

I use this phone, it's my primary phone...I like Sony camera and with MarshMallow photos are good..so, I ask about camera in this .33 version.

Other mentioned bugs of previous version are fixed? Low audio...double tap problems...how it goes?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] kiosk123:
Low audio is fixed, double tap problems i see only few times, etc. when the screen is off very long... Its maybe caused by doze

EDIT: if you wanna see full potential of photos and details that i post, view them as full image and zoom them, because thumbnail distorts photos...
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] kiosk123:
Full HD 60 fps now works in Youtube app.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] DomusX10:
I have updated to latest version 32.3.A.2.33

Phone goes well, but there are some problems.

My experience is:

- Annoying delay of brightness when I wake up phone from stand by, with double tap or with power button : screen brightness is too low..then brightness growing in a few seconds. This never happened with Marshmallow.

- When I switch fron airplane mode on to off, Bluetooth goes on..without reason. (EDIT: it's due to a nougat option on "search" in the bluetooth section. Disable auto-search remove this behaviour)

- Nougat data traffic quick settings are really annoying, because when turn on or off data you need to confirm again with a switcher in a dedicated window..two step..even to turn off!

- Camera picture quality worst , seems more fast on open but images quality are worst compared with marshmallow.

- Battery life is less..same use of marshmallow, less screen use and overall battery consumption is more..seems due to Android System.

For now this is it. Seven days of use.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] kiosk123:
I run antutu Benchmark and I found something interesting...we have IMX 230 camera sensor (z3 have imx220)... Do you know that?
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] raja.ali:
Since last few days my xperia z3+ dual with nougat is not behaving at all :confused: It keeps on restarting randomly. Ever since i updated to nougat there seems to be many issues. Nougat is very unstable for me at least.
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] prueba01:
[MENTION=6086002]Mhsowrove[/MENTION] forgot to mention or in my case maybe.

32.3.A.2.33

-Phone is not recognized anymore when connected usb to my pc, therefore, not charging either

-No Mass storage

-Lock screen is less sensitive, I have to slide my finger up a bunch of times to unlock it

-more steps to activate 4g data
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] cknood:
Done!

Hi! I have Z3+ still on marshmallow,

After read some reviews, glad i am still on marshmallow, but my question is the battery really that bad on nougat?

edit:

rolling back to lollipop because of the camera result are bad
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] im64:
hi, mike greeting from west java,, heuheu

i want to know the build number of firmware version of lollipop that you use?

i never try lollipop on my Z3+ before,.. in lollipop did you find?

-overheating?

-Battery drain?

afaik reading from some other site the lollpop on z3+ give decent camera quality,..

please give me some real impression ,, ya review lah gan,,, hehehehe

anyway i allready have the lollipop firmware build number E6553_28.0.A.8.251_Generic GLOBAL, this is good?

thanks
[Xperia Z4/Z3+ General] mikey000:
Mine was 28.0.A.8.272 hongkong generic,

I think my z3+ was less overheat, because i never play games, never 4k record, just regular usual warm heat & i think this is not major problem for me, knowing other phone with snapdragon 810 heating worst than z3+, my battery is working normally,

i notice the camera result is better than MM, going to stick to this version. Tried that global generic version & it cannot updated through ota & xperia companion, but this hongkong version can.

[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] johnwho2410:
Hi everyone!

Currently i am using a different look screen from the huawei themes. What i am missing is this nice circle animation when you plug in the usb cable to load your phone (the one where the background blurs and a ring/circle animation shows on the screen, showing the current battery status).

Can anyone tell me how to get this animation with a different lock screen? It looks like this only works with the magazine theme. I know it is nothing dramatic but i like the animation :)
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] TheOneWhoSpeaks:
You can't.
[Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers] johnwho2410:
Really? There is no way to edit the lock screen in any way? I don't mind digging deeper and create an own theme for it. Want to learn about creating own themes for longer time.

Well, if not, this is sad, because i hate it that the clock on the magazine-lockscreen is at the bottom instead of top.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Midgeslayer:
I downloaded and installed Nougat (UK BTU version) on my S7 today. Generally very pleased but one immediate disappointment. Search Result pages from the Google App no longer appear in the Recent Apps/Multitasking (button to left of home button).

In Marshmallow I could always go back to a Google App Search Results page via Recent Apps. Thus if I wanted to check the next result on the page I did not have to repeat the search. Before I discovered this in Marshmallow I found the Google App very frustrating.

Has anyone else observed this? Is there any setting to reverse this (a vain hope I suppose)? If this thread should be elsewhere or I have missed another relevant thread please let me know. Thanks. PLEASE IGNORE; SEEMS TO BE WORKING OK NOW
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Midgeslayer:
Please ignore the above. It has since started to work. If a moderator wishes to delete this thread feel free; I don't seem to be able to find a way myself.

I noticed there weren't many posts on Leelboxes on XDA so I'll provide some quick input for anyone who may search for a review or want to ask questions.

Recently I bought a Q2 on Amazon and finally set it up last night.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N63M03X/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Opening the box/contents

-The box had some wear on it but overall in decent shape

+Comes with power cable, hdmi, remote (no batteries)

-The box had a fairly strong plastic/soldering smell and ins't very appealing visually

Setup

- Plugging in the power starts up the device so I had everything (HDMI, mouse/keyboard) already plugged in/No physical power button

++ Quick boot up and short animation screen

-/+ Decent launcher screen probably depends on preference

-/+ Needed to adjust the screen area down to 90% as it was displaying outside of my viewing area

- Remote sluggish

+ Wireless USB keyboard and mouse are plug and play

- Still haven't figured out how to turn off the on-screen keyboard as the settings menu is device specific

- Playstore and adding Google account FC'd the first time I opened it

Customizing

+++++ Installed SuperSu from Playstore and went through the "normal" non-recovery install process successfully!

+ Installed Leanback Launcher/Google TV v1.14 (newer versions FC) APK from APK mirror and home launcher switcher

++ Kodi and addons preinstalled and setup

-Google Now launcher has icon text issues (words are cut off)

+Installed hidden settings

Performance

+ 5ghz wifi running well

- Some UI lag/stuttering

- App install a little slower than hoped

- Device comes with a memory cleaner button on the provided launcher. Once mem usage hits 80%, stuttering gets annoying. Installed memory cleaner and still evaluating.

+ Video very smooth in Kodi and Youtube

More to come but hope this helps.

How is the leelbox Q2 running? Have you tried miracast with a Windows10 laptop? Looking for a device to primarily do this.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xnatex21:
Still running well. Mainly use it for Kodi and YT. I found an older version of Nexus Player launcher that works (except suggestions) and looks better than stock.

One complaint I do have, I couldn't get any emulators to recognize USB gamepads. If you want to do any of that, I'd stay away.

I haven't tried Miracast at all but I will if you're still interested. Let me know.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] heyitsmaya:
Hey there... I have a question for you. How's the video playback on your box?? I really this box, especially since it has Bluetooth and there is hardly any lag, however, I have had bad luck with it from the get-go. My video playback is horrible! The screen flickers and goes really dark when the scene is shot at night or it's indoors. Sometimes my tv goes black and if it weren't for the captioning, you'd think it's just off. Then the image perks up when the scene is outside or a really bright shot. It really does a number on my eyes as it's a constant thing. I did reach out to their customer service and they have been responsive and sent over instructions to try and fix this, but that hasn't worked. I even got the box replaced, but the issue persists. I'm thinking maybe it's a setting at this point. Would you happen to know if there is a fix to this or is there anything you would suggest? Thanks in advance!

Kodi seems a bit darker so I have an display setting on my TV that I toggle to vibrant and its much better. HBO Go feels the same. Other than those though, Youtube and Netflix are fine.

[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] xnatex21:
I haven't tried flashing a new rom for this device yet so I may not be the best to help you. But from what I've read, the USB burning tool is your best bet. From experience, it may be a good idea to try flashing with another computer. Also, re-download the imgs.
[Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers] heyitsmaya:
Hello! Sorry for the late reply, but I have changed HDMI cables twice and changed ports on the TV. Also, I have used an older TV I have with this box and it just doesn't work. The video just bounces from light to dark when on Netflix or streaming any other type of video including YouTube. I have attempted to play with any settings on the box but nothing changes. Kinda bummed, oh well right?

Hi,

In product description it said this is dual wifi enabled (2.4 and 5Ghz) box. So I installed internet wifi router with 2.4 and 5GHz possibility, and Q2 Pro box pick up just 2.4Ghz signal.

Then I turned off manually 2.4GHz possibility in router and Q2 Pro box didn't see any wifi network, while my LCD and PS4 was connected on 5GHz without problem.

So, my question is, how to enable receiving 5Ghz wifi signal on Q2 Pro box?

I've been having some trouble rooting the Q2 Mini Leelbox, wondering is that a different model than the Q2? i am also having an issue changing the default home launcher on my box, it seems like the Zonglauncher that is installed on it wants to be the only proprietary launcher option an because i cant gain root, I can't run effin system app deletion.

I figured kingroot would do it, but it has not been of any help so far. Shoot I've googled Root Leelbox Q2 mini and pretty much theres nothing out there. must not be a very popular box. now that i noticed it is rockchip, i'm a little disappointed with it, might even return it, but it does have 2G/8G for only 43 Dollars on amazon.

It must be a different version. If I recall correctly, I didn't have to install anything to get root. I just ran a root checker and confirmed I was good to go.

I also was able to install any launcher I wanted. But in the end, their launcher was good enough for the apps I use (Kodi, Netflix, HBO Go, Youtube).
