I'm on EU too and mine shows that I'm up to date. No Android 13 yet. Why?! Don't want to wipe everything and flash the new software...
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuma_Eitarou:
I'm on EU too, but my phone rooted and I install a13 from newflasher
[Sony Xperia 1 III] LaceeWearsPrada:
I was a bit impatient, so I flashed it with newflasher just like you did (newflasher now can keep userdata :D )
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuma_Eitarou:
Yeah
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Use this and yes its paid and works on xperia 1 iii and i use it to and root is needed

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuma_Eitarou:
Finally transparent feature works, I hate material design
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
Lol, the new quick settings tiles look like when you need to hit 'reload' to fix a web page's CSS.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
That doesn't mean it generally works. My first 1 III would bootloop if I set a fingerprint then turned off the screen. The replacement randomly unlocks when it touches unregistered fingers or claims "too many tries" when I tap the reader for the first time. I'm hoping Sony ports the change so it can only be active while pressed down, but Sony's track record so far is to disable features rather than fix them. I'm thinking to install Android 13, back up everything, then root.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Mine works fine and maybe its the issue with your x1 iii
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
So, that would mean that yours works but they generally don't all work?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
I dokt know where you want to go but mine works and what you have i dont know because i never have that issue, you did a clean install ? This discussion is going nowhere btw.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] cryfrogg:
Why is my quick settings tiles still the same as before? They are not like what you showed in your screenshots :/
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Because he is rooted and use some mods like i do.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] cryfrogg:
Then this post is actually misleading, those screenshots do not have anything to do with the new version :/
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
+1 agree with you

[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
my fingerprint scanner now doesn't work after upgrading to this last week. cleaning the sensor nor restarting normally/restarting via safe mode doesn't work either. And the fingerprint manager in security settings is missing. See attached screenshots.

So annoying now that I have to use the passcode everytime I unlock the phone. Before I can just restart and the fingerpint scanner will work again until it stops working again and I have to restart again.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] RF Junkey:
Was the phone encrypted when you updated? Try turning off encryption off and reboot, reset passcode, fingerprint, re-encrypt.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
Yeah it was encrypted before the update as well. I can't turn off the encryption, nothing happens when i touch the encryption option.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] hotcakes_shinku:
Please help report this directly to Sony. We need more people to report it to Sony so that they know it affects many users and they need to do something about it. Me reporting it by myself, Sony probably thinks I'm some crazed iPhone user and ignore me, multiple times in fact through multiple reports. We need more visibility on this for Sony to act and fix it. Its definitely a Software bug, not a hardware issue as some say in other places.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] RF Junkey:
Try to save all your info, backup all your stuff. My guess is you will not be able to write to SD so PC. Go to Sony and DL the "Xperia Companion" it will guide you to repair.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Masterblop:
After upgrading to Android 13, I also had the fingerprint problem, but after deleting the old fingerprint and putting in a new one, it unlocks on the first attempt
[Sony Xperia 1 III] lie614:
Having the same issues as yours. Fingerprint sensor was fine before the 13 update. The sensor was kinda working after update but sometimes I need to restart to make it work again. Completely dead today as yours. Not showing up. Try to use the support function to check the sensor, but it only tell me that it can't read fingerprint.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
I have the exact same problem. Mine didn't get the android 13 update yet though. It started like a month ago, probably after some update, and it wasn't working, so I had to restart and it worked for a while then stops working again, then off to restart, and so forth. Then after like a few days, it was working just fine for like a week, then all of a sudden it stopped working completely as if there was no fingerprint sensor in the phone. So frustrating and shameful. I mean we take the risk and buy these unsupported and nearly impossible to find phones, and all we get is bugs and underwhelming performance sometimes.

This wasn't the only annoying bug I had with my 1iii. I also had the most annoying bug I've ever seen which was my phone hanging up calls all the time the second I answer (towards the end) to the point that it affected my work and relationship with people. It was hell, but again got fixed after an update.

Anyways, if anyone has a solution, please let us know.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Masterblop:
Have you tried removing the fingerprints and putting them back on?

I did it after the update to android 13 and it works perfectly
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
As people above said, it doesn't even exist anymore to remove.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
You sure.. wgat is this then in my Xperia 1 iii with A13 ? It can be removed.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
How do you remove the fingerprints if the FINGERPRINT MANAGER option is not there at all?

This most likely be my last Sony phone. I love their phones but the bugs are annoying. Not to mention I don't have 5G and VoLTE access as Sony pulled out of Australia so I'm basically using a grey import phone, paid a premium price but not getting all the features.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Masterblop:
Go to Settings -> Security -> Fingerprint Manager -> Remove your fingerprint.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
I'm not sure if you saw the screenshots I posted on the 2nd page when I first reported this issue. The FINGERPRINT MANAGER option on my setting is gone. When you go inside Security, there is no FINGERPRINT MANAGER option at all. Rebooting to safe mode used to fix this and will show the fingerprint manager again but that was when the phone was still in Android 12, that dosen't work anymore when i upgraded to Android 13.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Pandemic:
Oke buf then we can ask, did a clean install help ?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
The device was orginally updated via OTA update and that's when the issue first appeared. Then I did a Software Repair via the Xperia Companion, didn't fixed the issue either.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Masterblop:
After investigating a bit, I saw that the cause may be wrong firmware for your model or you need to update Google play security.

I'd say start with the security update
[Sony Xperia 1 III] OrangeRafi:
My Google Play Security update seems up to date as per last checked now. Says November 2022 is the most recent, that's unless it's not picking up any recent release.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
Well, Security update has a red icon for me which may indicate that there might be an error there. But, when I try to see if there is any update, I can't find any. And I always update via Xperia when I get the notification, so it can't be a wrong firmware. And again I still haven't got the android 13 update yet, so I don't know if it'll fix it or not especially when more than one person here have the same problem and they have android 13.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] reiriop:
I've had this problem with nearly every Xperia phone I've had unfortunately but I still love these phones it's very frustrating. After about a year an update breaks the FP functionality and the options disappear from settings entirely. I'm still in android 12 as it doesn't seem like they will update the US variant and rebooting into safe mode no longer fixes the FP sensor functionality for couple hours.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
Thank you for clarifying this. Although I'm not in the US, I do have the US variant, and maybe I won't buy this variant again. I'm just relieved that it's not a hardware problem like some people were easily dismissing this as. It's really frustrating indeed, I've had phones that were inferior in every aspect than Xperias, much older, and a lot cheaper, and I've never had a FP problem with. What makes it even worse is that Xperias don't have face recognition, so it came down to how fast you can Write your pin 😔
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
Xpericheck says the US model has an update: https://xpericheck.com/XQ-BC62/23131371

The phone says there's no update. Xperia Companion says there's no update or an Undefined update, but does nothing either way.

Just wanna get 13, root, and fix this dumb phone.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] prazvt:
xperifirm downloaded the new version for me - XQ-BC62_Customized US_61.2.A.0.388. It's just been so long since I've manually updated firmware that I'm forgetting how to use flashtool, etc. What instructions I see seem to be a few years old (ie. UI steps aren't lining up, flashtool says usb debugging is off even though it's on, etc).
[Sony Xperia 1 III] prazvt:
If anyone knows the right way to manually update, would appreciate it. Also as kevin mentioned, xperia companion says there's an update but it shows as 'unknown'. So it never actually downloads anything.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] AZTimT:
I swiped down on the software update page on my 1 III today and this popped up. So US versions are getting their 13 .388 ota now.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
I still don't have it. Anyways, let us know if it fixes the FP sensor, that is if it's faulty in your device.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] nos1609:
Then in many of these. Today got same issue, two hard-poweroff boots fixed it, but still it is getting annoying.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
In the beginning, a restart or a power off always fixes the FP malfunction. That is until it doesn't.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
I used newflasher to put A13 on a XQ-BC62. The FP reader only brought up the lock screen initially but it started working after a few minutes. Whew!

OpenGL fixed in in OsmAnd~

Cellular still sucks

Fingerprint Manager highlighting is broken

Several system settings changed and out of sync with UX

4K display still missing
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
So, I take it A13 isn't coming on its own to BC62?

Should I follow your lead and force install it or just wait till Sony somehow make it available?

And is it possible that they're making the update to A13 available to BC62 in certain countries only and expanding the availability gradually, or once it's available in a version, it should be available everywhere?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] kevinmcmurtrie:
I have a BC62 in the US so it should have updated. I think Sony hates the US.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
😔

I have the BC62, but not in the US. So I guess it might never come.

The only thing left is to know if the update isn't available to all of people with US variant, or just the ones who had defective last update.

Never gonna buy the US variant again, that is if I bought a Sony phone again unfortunately.
[Sony Xperia 1 III] HellKiai:
The update to A13 arrived to my Xperia a couple of days ago and I installed it. Unfortunately, the FP sensor still doesn't exist, though the error sign in security update is no more to be found.

You are asking about incremental OTA file that may be installed only to the previous version. I have only Full OTA link. If it is ok for you, here it is
[Introductions] JOEWTFDOE:
Pretty cool deal. I paid sales tax and hoped I could get them unlocked quicker than their policy states. Hoping they would have just unlocked them because they were "free" but no.

I spend a night last night obsessively violating every nook and cranny of this tablet to get it to quit telling me to call Verizon and I can't use the sim I put in it.

At 3am as I been up for a day being a nerd learning how to remove the bloat from my pixels...my galaxy s7 fe 5g from Verizon that I haven't made even 1 payment on that was absolutely locked to Verizons network...is now free. Free at last.

Are these devices normally this easy to do this on. I've read some people can bypass verification on Google accounts and Samsung accounts on other devices. I didn't do that. I'm logged into everything with no shame.

I'm here because my only problem is I have a notification that won't go away that just says the sim is not from Verizon.

It's super cool to use this for door dash too. That app sucks so bad on phones and idk why.

[XPERIA X1 General] Amlethae:
Well... huh.

I never noticed before, but it does look like there's a little strip of black (possibly translucent) plastic at the "top" of the power button... I could see an LED being behind it. But how does one turn it on to see it? or is this an IR port?

Is it possible to get rid of the password unlock screen on a galaxy note 10 plus witout losing any of the data on the phone. Set a password to unlock the phone, and now its a pain in the ass, I want to go back to the way I had it before where it was open all the time. Im concerned if some needs to contact my wife in case of emergency, they cant get into phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I always wondered about this myself. I never used the lock screen or finger print scanner.

Don't even know if they work🤣

Life is good...

You have a SD card slot, use it. Get a .5-1tb V30 rated Sandisk Extreme card and use it as a data drive.

All critical data goes here including installable copies of all your apps, and system apps. Backup photos here too, but do not have "dcim" in that backup folder's name. At least if do need to factory reset it will be easy.

Never encrypt any data drive including the SD card and redundantly back up its data.

Double tap and ApkExport, may not work on Android 11 and higher.

[Samsung Galaxy S22] lowowly:
My intention is to run docker on android. After some research my attention falls on this thread. It’s a guide to run docker inside termux. To do so you need some features that are disabled by default in Android’s stock kernel. Good thing there is a script to run inside termux (phone rooted) to check the necessary features for docker – listing all missing features and all enabled by default (with stock kernel).

Here are some example features that are necessary:

MACVLAN

VXLAN​

VLAN_8021Q

I was and I’m still a newbie in kernel editing/compiling. I needed a guide that’s simple and understandable. So, I got my hands on the LineageOS build guide for a Samsung S10 (beyond1lte). After some days I finally managed to compile a new kernel with LineageOS 19.1 and got docker running on my Samsung S10.

Next step was to do the same with a Samsung S22 (r0s). At the moment I stuck in bootloop after flashing my self-compiled kernel. Currently I have those two more like same procedures to build a kernel and flashing it.

initial state: phone is rooted with magisk (patched AP with magisk apk)

1 – Loki Kernel (flash with FKM)	2 – afaneh92 Kernel (flash with TWRP)
cd arch/arm64/configs	cd arch/arm64/configs
edit exynos2200_r0s_defconfig

CONFIG_MACVLAN is not set

to

CONFIG_MACVLAN=y	edit afaneh_r0s_defconfig

CONFIG_MACVLAN is not set

to

CONFIG_MACVLAN=y
use build_menu from kernel root

- Build kernel	use build_menu from kernel root

- Build kernel
use build_menu from kernel root

- Make flashable zips	use build_menu from kernel root

- Make flashable zips
Install kernel with FKM and reboot	Install kernel with TWRP and reboot
bootloop	bootloop

If I do the same with other config options, i.e., VXLAN or VLAN_8021Q or even using “make menuconfig” with proper env variables as source I got the same result (bootloop). And I think there is no problem with my toolchains or so, because if I’m compiling default configs from the threads (loki and afaneh92), I can flash those self-compiled kernels and also boot into system without bootloop.

Need some help to clarify some stuff to get this "project" to the next level. I also can provide the complete kernel docker-feature list, as needed. Maybe someone will try it by himself.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] lowowly:
Update:

I build a kernel with following additional features and was able to boot into system with that options:

MACVLAN

PID_NS

USER_NS

Unfortunatley I still missing the capability to get more features running, like: CGROUP_DEVICE, IP_VS, POSIX_MQUEUE, etc. I can't find proper guides to figure out which dependencies are required to get the kernel up with one of those options. My approach was kinda "trial and error" or read some other kernel-defconfigs to hit the golden feature to get the kernel booted. After around 30 build kernels I realized that's just a waste of time and if I not find the right explanation I do this procedure the rest of my life.

Someone told me to look inside the /proc/last_kmsg after bootloop, but there are so many lines I can't find the suitable that's responsible for bootloop. I linked the file anyway, maybe someone is really bored and wanna take a look on it. For the moment I stick to my S10 and wait for the next big hint.
[Samsung Galaxy S22] Xynon:
Instead of editing the defconfig manually, couldn't you use make menuconfig? it's ncurses based kernel configurator that has a config option dependency tree (so it will tell you what certain options depend on / hide options if prerequisites are not met).

also, follow gentoo docker guide for options.

Hi. Anyone know why latest OneUi 5.0 takes 70GB system storage?

I believe that system should take about 10-15GB like clear Android 13 (Mi9T Pro - 12GB, MiPad 5 - 16GB), but not 70.

Anyone know what is happening in the system directories?

I tried cleaning my internal storage a while ago and noticed my system storage increased to 110GB, lmao.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] annson08:
Update on this: I did a factory reset to see if it'll do anything.

From 111GB, it went down to 38GB, but after completely restoring all my apps, files and everything, it went back up to 58GB. Not bad considering I freed up 50GB+.

I suspect the reason my system files bloated like that is because I have a habit of flashing roms without wiping, especially when the beta came out.
