they cannot make 4k default resolution! the battery life will be horrible!

i am affraid it will be ONLY for 4k movies when played!

also the combo tray is killing me!
[Xperia Z5 Premium General] jplempka:
Doesn't brightness affect battery life more than resolution? For example, what would use more battery; 1080p at max brightness or 4K but with adaptive on?

Anyway, Sony don't have my interest with the XZP. An XZP Ultra on the other hand...
[Xperia Z5 Premium General] YasuHamed:
they both contributes with combination

low brightness no 4k < low brightness + 4k < High brightness no4k < High brightness+4k

however Z5p's defualt max brightness was always kept less than its predecessor to protect heatup issues

as device heats up! the brightness automatically goes down (even if you have kept adaptive brightness off)
[Xperia Z5 Premium General] gbil:
Giving you the option would be the best. At the moment there is simply no option and because of that you can even see 4k youtube, not even 2k.

I also have a hidden hope that with the release of XZP 4k will be enabled also for Z5P even for specific apps still but more apps than only the Sony ones.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firemanNY:
Several recent stories have highlighted the issue of customs and immigration agents aggressively demanding access to electronic devices at border checkpoints. For those who value their privacy this is a serious issue. There seems to be a market here looking for a solution.

The kind of thing I have in mind is:

1. Some app or utility makes a complete (ideally encrypted) complete image of your device on demand.. This is stored on the cloud.

2. You then perform a factory reset and thus have a blank phone free of personal data to present to customs.

4. Once you've cleared customs you resinstall the app and perform a complete restore of your phone thus restoring it precisely to the state it was before the reset in all respects.

Does anyone currently offer such a service? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Sladenky:
I've unlocked bootloader prior to flashing the phone and written down the unlock code as it is needed after every 3-button flashing. Did you not write it down? If you did, you don't have to get the code again.

Anyway, the IMEI is written on the box as well as product ID.

Hello dude i was in the same situation and i have success with repair i will tell you in a short way what you need to do:

1. find TWRP wich work with your rom and flash as erecovery.

2. Change region to cn , flash this zip hw_CN_UL10.zip

3. Find this ROM NEM-UL10C00B153 and flash it with sdcard as normal upgrade *#*#2846579#*#* then Software Upgrade —> SDCard Upgrade

at this point you will have imei again. Now i decide to try to make eu again :)

4. find TWRP wich work with your rom and flash as erecovery. in my case twrp nemo 3.0.2.0 works

5. change region again flash this zip hw_EU.zip

6. flash NEM-L51C432B102 and you are done eu with sims :)

all this i do with unlocked bootloader

Sory i cant post links because of XDA restrictions

I do in this way because 3button Forced upgrade stop work when i change region.

My hpone is chinese version NEM-AL10 2GB

PS : dont do any updates if you do you will loose sim again :). Disable autoupdates.

[UMi Z Questions & Answers] kfasheldon:
Well I have yet to see any problems and I use this thing heavy. Battery is getting good after 3 days use ,battery life always seems yo wear in on new ROMs so a new phone I guess the same. Charge with supplied charger is fast , 70% in 30 mins easy.

A lot of bugs I read about seem to be more user issues or environment issues , I have no WiFi, LTE, camera , screen, battery drain issues at all.

Greenify, amplify, xposed, rooted , latest update , nova launcher, nify, substranium, all up n running nice.

Tested several big games, smooth and quick to load, phone feels snappy, in comparison to my HTC m10 (broken screen hence I buy this) this phone is smoother, screen nicer, sound the same, camera better, in fact very impressed by this phone.

I guess so long as you know android you won't have issues , only if you are new to android you may miss the hand holding the big boys phones offer.

All in all buy this, read and learn, have patience and enjoy a great bargain.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMeeb:
Hey guys,

I'll be honest...I'm a noob at all of this. I thought I would experiment with putting a custom ROM on an old Android phone I had (the SP), so googled around to find some guides on how to do it and tried to follow them. I successfully got the phone into fastboot (after using the Windows 8 driver workaround on Windows 10), and all seemed good. However, from then the issues (or what looked like them) started:

1. When entering into the bootloader (correct me if I'm wrong, but that's when you hold down the up volume as you connect it to the PC), the blue light would come on, but nothing would show on the screen. The guides I was looking at would suggest that the bootloader would load onto the screen. Was I just not loading into the bootloader?

However, I was still able to interact with the phone through the Cmd.exe, so something right was happening, so I pressed on (probably a mistake!) to attempt to install TWRP, as this was the next step in the guide I was following. This was where I ran into my next problem:

2. When trying to flash the TWRP.img to the recovery partition, I would get an error back saying the recovery partition could not be found. As far as I was concerned, there was also no way to verify whether the recovery partition was there or not, as I couldn't seem to load the bootloader either

Having googled around, I found an article that suggested I'd flash it to the boot partition instead, which I did. From that point, the device would no longer boot at all. It would enter fastboot/bootloader with the blue light, but unplugging the device and holding down the power button did nothing. At this point I decided "screw it" and decided to push on and see if I could install a ROM (I'd settled on LineageOS), so started following the steps, and flashed the Boot.img to the boot partition. The other instruction was to "flash the LineageOS zip from recovery", which I did not know how to do, and presumed was not possible, seeing as I thought I'd somehow broken that partition. At this point, the phone would turn on, the bar would flash green then red, and the Sony splashscreen would show. However, that is that would happen - it would stay frozen at that point. That is the point I'm at now

I appreciate that I've probably royally messed up this phone, and that's okay with me if that's the case - it was a learning experience. However, if this is recoverable, I'd really appreciate some help! I may be new to this, and not know much at all, but I want to try it, so if there is a way to get to a position where I can install TWRP and then flash a ROM to the phone, then please share your knowledge! I'm open to anything

Thanks in advance,

Meeb
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OsGhaly:
First of all don't worry, Sony's phone doesn't brick that easy ?

All you need to do first is to repair your phone using official Xperia companion (Google how to repair your phone using Xperia companion).. After that you'll need to root your phone and unlock the bootloader to be able to install custom recovery like TWRP and use it to install any custom ROM.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMeeb:
Thanks for the advice! I successfully got it to the point of being rooted (using towelroot) and the bootloader unlocked, using flashtool. All seemed good. I then downloaded TWRP Manager, and tried to install TWRP, but it failed, which was an issue I faced before. To confirm my theory, I tried doing it using the CMD fastboot, and, using "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img", and was met with the same error as before - recovery partition not found. How am I supposed to install TWRP to the recovery partition if I don't have a recovery partition?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OsGhaly:
You're more than welcome dear, glad to hear you've successfully did it :good:

Concerning TWRP flash, you can try one of these:

1- Use rasher tool to flash the TWRP img (the easiest way).

2- Adb Sideload:

3- Using terminal emulator app such as $cripter:

Place twrp.img in the root of your /sdcard folder then run the following commands using $cripter app:

su

dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/FOTAKernel

P.S. You can download the latest TWRP from here
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMeeb:
Hmm, Rashr does not seem to work - I select it to flash recovery, select my twrp.img, it says flashing then nothing happens. When booting to recovery, nothing shows, and it goes through to a normal boot. When trying to flash TWRP using the official TWRP app, it says it has flashed successfully, but again, no luck when booting into recovery mode. I don't really want to try either of the other two techniques, for fear of breaking things again. I've seen talk elsewhere that this isn't possible on the stock Kernel, which I'm on. Is that correct?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OsGhaly:
Ok then, you can't use custom recovery with the stock kernel ofc. but we don't want that!.. you will install the TWRP recovery then reboot to it and install the new ROM without booting to the stock ROM at all.

1- Download TWRP and the ROM you want to flash for example Lineage OS.

2- Use the second method mentioned in my previous post by Adrian DC to install TWRP then boot into recovery -> wipe all then install LineageOS ROM + GApps.

-----

Another workaround is to install XZDualRecovery to have Philz touch and TWRP recoveries working alongside with the stock kernel and use it to install LineageOS ROM.

Oh, okay! I'm trying to do the command as stated, but (while rooted with SuperSU installed) I get the error about adb not being able to run root in production builds. So, I enter the shell with adb shell type su, but then when i type exit and then adb root I get an error saying device not found, even though it shows up when typing adb devices before entering into SU (suggesting I have the correct drivers installed). However, when looking in Device Manager there's a yellow triangle next to the device, with an option to update drivers. Any advice? If I need to update the drivers, what drivers are they and were do I find them?

Edit: Picture as described -
