Android 6 for Xperia C4 and Xperia C5 Ultra - Sony Xperia C4 Questions & Answers

Waiting Android 6 for these devices is too long and tired. I feel disappointed about deciding to buy it for myself and my family. There are nothing change since own them.
There are many issues with these devices like annoying sounds while changing volume, suddenly shutdown with only red Led glows, cannot use Google msg for dual SIM, contact sync problem, no File manager software, blurred front-camera, cannot change navigation bar by theme.
I hope new update will fix above issues and add app permission for more security soon but Sony is unpromising when they updated Android 5.1 with nothing change.
I need only this update to fix the above issues and never again to buy Sony devices.
Very regretful and disappointed.

Very very bad that No support from Developers and Sony

Camera problem in Xperia X10

Hi. I like my X10 very much, especially after I debranded it to get the Android Market icon; many thanks to Lollylost100 and others who made the tutorial. Only free apps show, but there is plenty!
After debranding, I checked the phone functionality and everything has worked beautifully plus faster if I am not imagining things .
However recently, activating the camera by icon or button causes the phone to re-start. I don't know what would cause this, is it an application that I installed that is interfering with the camera or something else? Anyone has seen this kind of problem? Can't use the 8MP camera for now!!
Thanks for any help.
repair the phone with pc companion.
Thanks for the reply.
Today morning I removed two apps that search for and download MP3 music. These are the last that I had installed. Since I removed these apps the camera icon and button are behaving normally, but I'll give it more time to see if the issue is solved for good.

Android 2.3.3 on XPeria X10i: Automatic activation of Camera's LED?

I really sorry my mistake, but my last thread was closed too quick. I need to discuss about this.
(Sorry the english. I used the google translator)
Hello everyone!
A few days ago I upgraded my XPeria X10a (branded) Android 2.1 to version 2.3.3. The new version of ROM is XPeria X10i (debranded). The ROM was obtained right here at XDA, but it is official.
Everything is working fine since then, but yesterday I decided to take a picture in low light conditions, and the LED lighting (which I call a camera flash) did not activate automatically. I'd Look for an option in the settings and saw that there is an option to "turn on the flashlight." By turning on the "flashlight", the LED was turned on and activated continuously.
I'm absolutely sure that when I first bought the phone (Android version 2.1, i guess, before upgrading to 2.3.3) and tested a photo, and remember that the LED was turned on automatically in low light condition, and this does not seem longer be happening.
I wonder if this is a bug or a feature is removed from the new version of Android, or if I did something wrong when I upgraded.
This sounds silly, but so far I'm loving the new Android and was wondering if I did something wrong.
I am willing to give more information if you need it.
Thank you!

New informations...
My old rom was the original XPeria X10a. The brand carrier was TIM and the Android version was the last official version of Android on this phone, Android 2.1 i guess. To activate the camera i press the camera hardware button until the phone vibrate and that time, when the camera was focusing the object (my mother ehehe) the LED was turned on and when the photo was taken the LED blinks and turn off. This behaviour is happening on the XPeria X10 min pro from my girlfriend, exactly like my old XPeria X10a branded ROM.
Please, this is very strange and must be known by everyone. THERE ARE a X10 official ROM with automatic camera LED switch, and this is not a guess, this is an affirmation. So, what is this ROM? How to "patch" my actual ROM to get the correct behaviour of camera LED?

Hello all. I was a member of this site between the times of the tmobile dash-note 2 eras and i havent done much modding since. I may have to start back after getting this phone. I recently upgraded from the LG g2 and besides the better hardware it seems that the software is a downgrade in terms of over customization and getting the most out of this hardware. I just want to know if there's a way to fix any of these problems or if I should root and if so what should I go with..
1. Get front flash to work while video chatting or to use phone as lighted mirror;without having to record video. ( I always visualized an ad of a chick using the moto x as a mirror or a soldier video chatting his family in a poorly lit space)
2. Pair multiple Bluetooth devices. My LG g2 could pair my pebble time steel and two other devices. One could be paired to play media and the other would be set for calls only and they were remembered.
3. Custom alarm tones. I thought the pure meant that there wouldn't be any restrictions and everything would be customizable like the good windows phones.
I'm sure these problems have been solved but I couldn't find it by searching the forums so maybe someone could point me to the best mod for this phone please?

[Discussion] What are your problems with the 5T?

I have had this phone for more than 4 months now, and I have 2 problems with it (both software), which OnePlus failed to fix over several updates, even though they are aware of these problems.
My first problem is the panorama mode. This phone makes just the worst panoramas. My hands are a little shaky, and the pictures that come out are completely unacceptable (even though it doesn't have ois) for a "flagship killer". I had a Nexus 5X before, which made almost always perfect panoramas with a much worse camera. I feel like the devs put the panorama mode in the camera just so that it has the feature, but didn't spend any time on the algorithm.
My second problem, which is the bigger one is about bluetooth. First of all, the phone had/has a weird bug where if you turn on the bluetooth then go to the bluetooth menu to choose which device you want to connect to (either by long pressing the bt icon in the notification bar or from the settings app), the ui would freeze and you have to wait a half-a-minute or so, for the ui manager to restart (in older versions of oos, the phone itself restarted). Now in 5.1.1 it doesn't do this as often as it used to, but it still happens. The second issue with bluetooth is connectivity. Sometimes when I have my headset turned on and I turn on bluetooth on the phone it connects right away (like it should) and I am happy.
Other times (most of the time actually) I have to manually select which device I want to connect to (bringing us back to freezing), and even then it still takes a couple tries for the phone to succesfully connect.
So these are my 2 issues with this phone, I hope they will get fixed soon. I feel like the dev team is always working on the next phone after release, and they don't spend anywhere near enough man-hours on released device support.
Other than these, I'm loving this device, it's fast, has great battery life and does everything well.
Do you have these bugs, do they bother you or do you have any other problems with the phone you would like to share?

I have to ask but have you done any factory resets? Never once heard of either of these issues

Yes, I have, I clean installed 5.1.0. I read about both problems on the OnePlus forums, so I guess it's not just me. But I can try when I have some time to reinstall the phone. Btw, I am running oos 5.1.1 rooted, nothing else, so I don't think that is the problem.

Dont know about the panaroma mode but i face no issues like you mentioned regarding Bluetooth.
Try flashing an OOS based custom rom and see how that treats you.
my only main issue with this phone is the oil painting effect.

The way the Alert Slider works and how we can't customize it to our needs. But I guess this is a problem with all OnePlus phones.

U tried this?

Things I am not comfortable with are
1). Notification dropdown works even on lock-screen.
2). you can power off the device from Lock-screen.
Both are security concerns as someone can turn wi-fi and data off or power down the device if found or stolen.

3 Problems, cannot resolve

Hello, kinda new here...at least I haven't posted since my Xperia Play. However I own an Xperia XZ2 (H8276) Android 9, 64GB. I'm having two issues, one if which is one that seems to plaque Sony phones.
1). The Microphone for Xperia Diagnostics / Testing doesn't work during the test. Which it used to. However the microphone during calls via loudspeaker work. Google is touch and go. However, the in-call mic doesn't always work. Sometimes it'll work when I call. Sometimes it'll work when someone calls me. Then it doesn't. Almost seems random. I've tried uninstalling apps, app permissions, restore, app updates, etc etc. And it's a pain. I've even tried stupid things like disable Goggle Assistant, turn Bluetooth off prior, etc etc. IDK if it matters but I do have my Sony SmartWatch 2 paired to it (I assume at all times), and also a PC, PS3 Earpiece, X 2 speakers, ontop of the watch. However they're not always connected.
2). I cannot get the Sony Messaging (Xperia) base app to install now. It won't show up on Google play, and some APKs (whether upgraded or downgraded version) will either just say "not installed" or will keep crashing. It'll even give the "Not Responding" Window however it's only up for 1/100 a second. Not fast enough to select "App Info" or "Close App". Tho one time It did allow it and did nothing but continously crashing.
3). I also cannot find how to backup my device either via Xperia Companion (PC/Mobile). You used to be able to hook it up, select restore and it'll save a (X) GB .dll file. However upon clicking on the link it says something like "Android 10 users click here as there's a new method". Even tho I don't have an Android 10, it's Android 9, and the link take you to their site, and only has 5 phones listed (Xperia 1, and all the newest ones thereafter).
IDK whether this was the right place to ask however I don't know where else to ask as no one seems to know not even Sony themselves. Not to mention from my personal experience this forum site seems to have the most intelligent in-depth knowledgeable ppl around. So hopefully someone can help especially with the mic thing. I don't wanna have to use an Earpiece or Headphones to make private calls... It's a pain.
