Dont know. I think its may be just stability and performance.
How to root this firmware? Unable by the old method.
Oh come on Samsung screwed up something again.
The media process is running all the time.
The only Roms I can use are pure stock NA5 or AOSP.
I think I´ll smash that phone against a wall soon :crying:
I've found an NEW FEATURE,it's Fast Boot or something,translated from Chinese.
Many other phones have this features
Maybe needs support from bootloader or kernel?

And how's it?
It´s the fastest Firmware I´ve ever had on my phone.
But it seems my phone don´t want these Roms on it´s NAND.
It just keeps scanning my sdcard. I have already cleaned the SD and formatted it,
Same thing with every custom 4.3 Rom and Stock 4.1.2.

Well, for now everything is perfect, when debloated, ram usage is the same, also might be a placebo but i think it is smoother, and about battery life it's on 44% now and 23h on battery with 2:40 screen on time and heavy usage (games, video, social, photos).
The camera 'bug' is still present with autobrightness fail, but all in all it's tiny bit better than ND5.

Did you use it more than 1 day? Sammobile said that there is a big changelog with performance, stabilitiy and bugfixes, for now it performs very good, but i think nothing major didn't happen

They said it in overall,or like it's an example of what could be fixed,but they didn't exactly point that new firmware improves performance.
Gotta review more opinions,because reflashing the ROM adds too many work for me (debloating again,enabling all xposed modules,some backups,losing save games of some games which don't have cloud save,changing system sounds myself and etc.)

Dont know what they changed but its the same security patch level like 224 FW 1.April 2016. You can dirty flash only system partition until the patch script for new kernel is there. debloat script from 224 works fine http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z4/general/debloat-z3-z4-224-fw-t3399672

Any Change log available for this upcoming update??
Customized US/IT/RU/CH/SG/DE rolled out. Anyone who updated his phone?
Does it have Xperia X UI / Smart Cleaner?
Hi, looking into xperiFirm about italian customizedIT firmware, and noticed that is present the last version 32.2.A.0.253/R9C
My phone, instead, is on 32.2.A.0.224 / R4C with a different number of Customization(CDF):
- mine is 1295-6968_R4C
- instead XperiFirm customizedIT is 1295-7868_R9C
Someone could explain me if I can flash the customizedIT ftf on my phone, without brick it?
Which are the differences about these two version of firmware?
EDIT: Today I've connected phone to my PC, using Xperia Companion new firmware result and I've updated my phone to latest version.

Installed it last night - can't see anything major differences yet - not in the menu or anywhere else. Will see if battery life is any better.

Same for me.
Also I have noticed battery life a little better. :highfive:
In any case, system it's stable and fluid. I don't have problem with my SBH50 bluetooth stereo headset, so no differences for me about this.
But, if Sony fix bugs and improved battery life, in my opinion is still a great thing :good:

Hi. With Lollipop Z3+ can record 4K video more than 40 minutes without any warning notifications(I tested it). If anybody tested Z3+ with Marshmallow (new firmware 32.2.A.0.305) version in 4K camera mode please let me know how long it can stay.
As Sony announced few days ago that they'll discontinuing the X and X compact, what does it mean of us loners?
I mean it has been more than a month since the Performance variant got 7.1.1 and we still running the 7.0 and no news about when we'll get that update;
Also does this mean, that we won't be getting android O when it hits market?
From what i understand, they will only stop the production. That means no X2 or X2c.
Current phones will continue receiving updates until the end of its 18-month lifespan. That means 7.1 will come soon. (Actually it's already coming to Concept roms).
Though I hope they will skip 7.1 and go straight to 8.0.
C'mon Sailfish. Daddy needs a better OS.
Trashed it so fast. Sony is making some very odd choices. I hope they get their sh** together

Isn't it 2 year "lifespan" of updates ?????
Well, if you guys want some good news, Android 7.1 update for Xperia X/X Compact might start rolling really soon. Yesterday, kernel sources from an unannounced build (34.3.A.0.194) surfaced on Developer World, and given the bump to 34.3.xx.xx.xx from the previous 34.2.xx.xx.xx indicates it's a major update instead of simple bug fixes...

There's new Smart STAMINA mode, revamped quick settings with 6 toggle and Settings button (previously only 5 present and no Settings button when collapsed), round icons for Google apps, aand June security patch.
Someone said there is Xperia Actions, but I have yet to find it. Battery life seems to be slightly better, haven't played much with the update actually

Hi
I downloaded the b225 firmware 3-4 days ago and since then the battery from its over 5 hours average SOT has lost +20% of its power...
Has anyone else faced a similar issue after updating??!!
The old issues for me still not resolved :
Google now does not get activated by voice command
Whatsapp/telegram/etc social apps dont download latest messages unless the apps are open and running in background
Oh well....
I'm not facing the battery issue.
But the WhatsApp messages' auto receive failure persists.
Better battery life...

I upgraded from B213 to B225 and I've actually seen slight improvement in battery life overall. FYI, I use Brevent.
As for notification issues.. still there... no change since I bought the phone in December last year.
Interesting answers...
Thanks.
Will keep on monitoring battery...

Test with the app PNF push.

Yes. But you have to do rebranding.

Yes, Chinese version is updated frequently.
Additionally, it has call recording out-of-box and option to hide navigation keys
But there are some disadvantages too, like some specific problems with Google apps. I can't say that it is big problem, but in some cases it can broke your common way of using phone (navigation, Google assistant...). Yeah, it can be fixed, but you have to do something instead of gaining same in world roms.
There are also some bloatware with Chinese symbols which you have to disable or uninstall.
And Chinese version has tough algorithm to unload apps from memory, so user will get some problems with notifications. There is workaround to lock apps in memory. But it is another fix that you have to do manually in Chinese roms.
Anyway, you can try rebrand to Chinese rom, use it a few time, then back to US version or stay.

What is the best rom for stock replacement?
That is, I require fully stable rom. Good battery life. No need for gaming performance. But smooth UI navigation is needed.
Only additional thing I require is CA (4G+) support.
Thanks in advance.
Lineage os 16 , evo x 2.2
best stable is Lineage os 16 or if you want other go for AOSPExtended or PixelExperience

With root yes. But it is complicated, specially updating the OS. As I have to root and go through the process. Non root does not work on the versions I have tried. I also need a battery boost. A custom kernel may help with that. That is why I asked, if someone can mention a single ROM solution for both this problems.

You dont need root, the non-root method is working again. It stopped working after March 2019 update but after August 2019 update it is working again. I have disabled 4G+ without root on Stock Pie.

For me, it increased only 2-3Mbps. I disabled it because I did not see much speed improvements in my Area. But I got 40-50Mbps speed in Locations where less people use Jio, and my friend was getting 20-25Mbps with 4G on his Asus device. Yeah, it increases speed depending on Location. And yes, you can enable and disable (it's the same method)
