New firmware released, 45.0.A.7.137 - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Guides, News, & Discussion

I just got the new firmware last night on my XZP dual. it comes with September security patch and improved WiFi performance, bugs fixes, optimisations & improvements (written on the update log).
What I noticed was that stuttering on Facebook app is almost gone (heavily stuttered on previous firmware especially when open some external links). Touchscreen issue is gone (I suspected this issue happened earlier due to network incompatibility that slows down the phone to the point that touch input is not recognized sometimes, it could be temporarily solved by removing sim card or swapping between sim slot 1 and 2(only possible on dual sims variant) This problem does not happen to everyone).
Will update if I find any interesting changes.

Thanks for your thread! It reminds me what i wanted to do if i got some free time. Haha... I saw that yesterday on sonymobile.com but I had no time to check it in depth. I will do that now, because they also planned to do changes for unlocked devices (no green pictures anymore) a few months ago. Would be awesome if they really did that. And I hope that they fixed the other bugs, too. I also noticed the stuttering on Facebook and some other apps.
Edit: XperiFirm actually has only the "Customized TH" @ 45.0.A.7.137 for the G8142. Have to wait for the others. But I will take a look at this version now.

Nothing here on the G8141, NL in the EU.

Thanks for the info!! but for now no update on my device G8142 dual sim Italy, EU i don't know why
P.S. you are using the 4k all the time on? i had read that the battery drain is huge

It's simple, open the image with the web browser (right click on it and open photo in another tab) and save it on your computer/smartphone and after go on his proprietis (right click on the file) and you will find, on the details tab, the size of the photo easly

I took this screenshot earlier cause someone said it wasn't true 4K. So yea. Even the launcher ones are 4K.

Only Thailand is having the update. I wonder why. I didn't get July patch so I am assuming Some won't get this.

No updates here yet in u.s

I just got the August update on September 4th!!!!!
Why such a difference in update release times???

I've just got A.7.137 OTA (customized DE) on my G8141. Hope it finally fixes wifi and touchscreen.

OTA september patch here (customized IT) for g8141

I got the update too (115mg)
G8142
Middle East (IRAN)

Are the wifi issues solved?

I'm on a carrier specific firmware and think about flashing a generic one. Do you guys know which files should I omit in newflasher to not mess up with the encryption because I don't want a factory reset?

''So, for today’s Xperia XZ Premium release, Sony has improved Wi-Fi performance and added other bug fixes. Unfortunately, there is still no double tap to wake added, but we remain hopeful that Sony will bring this frankly crucial feature in a future update.''

I looked at Sammobile for an unupdate for N910T and I did not see anything - the only thing listed is the Original Stock Tar for this phone - maybe they haven't updated yet?
Maybe just for octa core version?

People, there is no update.
Well there is one, but it's for the general international version. As history has taught us these devices get updates the first. T-mobile has to decide if they will implement this update (which they normally will) but this usually takes weeks (or months).

I hope they roll out the update asap after launch. My battery life is less than my s5 - not terrible, , but not as great as my s5. Been off the charger since 7:30 and it's 11:30 now with 82% left , no GPS, bluetooth always on.

+1 buddy
We'll see material design only and maybe new updated apps like album and music (maybe).
I know the feeling when you see new update is coming, but we know also how the things go when we speak about marketing.
And I repeat, it's not sony, it's marketing.
I will feel more happy when new custom roms based on latest firmware will come out
when wil it be avalible for dowbload?

Sony said that other variants of the Xperia Z series would start to see the update in around two weeks after z3 and z2, so expect it in these day, don't know the exact day, maybe tomorrow, monday or tuesday.

I don't think that this won't be our last major upgrade. We will continue to see major updates until Z1 becomes 2 years old. (My poinion)

No Camera2 API = Lollipop is dead to me
I'm perfectly fine with Kit Kat as it's stable and bug free and has amazing battery life.

New camera api need drivers update (it depends also on hardware, not only on software, so lollipop is not synonymous of camera api 2). For now even on z3 and z2 there aren't, speak about xperia family. Don't expect camera api 2 on our phone, first thing for a marketing choice. Which are the phones with new camera api support? For example, I saw Nexus 5....
Oh yes, s6 and m9 lol

New firmware 32.0.A.6.152

Just noticed there's a new firmware 32.0.A.6.152 released to a lot of regions. Downloading now to see if I can spot any changes, not expecting Marshmallow though
It's just a bug fix. Not vulnerable to Stagefright. any more.
Anyone received OTA for it yet?
Will flashing the new firmware remove the root access or wipe any data?
Root, yes. If you don't wipe userdata, it shouldn't wipe.
Yeah stagefright fixed but don't see anything else different either. The bug with expanding notifications auto-minimising is still there. I got this from a taiwanese thread about this firmware:
Update "Home" version.
Optimization "cameras" startup speed.
Re-optimized phone heating problem.
Upgrading contacts database.
Optimization of fluency.
"Camera" photographs accelerated storage time!
Optimization "cameras" code.
"Fingerprint" to enhance the ability to identify.
Optimize "RAM."
"Calendar" interface optimization.
Add "VoLET" function.
I don't notice any difference to camera startup time (from cold boot). WIll take some time to see if it's better in general.

Is the blur on the left handside still there?
in Italy was released on PC Companion
The camera takes photos way faster now, there used to be a pause after the capture, now it's ready to take another one straight away, I guess that's the "accelerated storage time".
I never really had much blur how would you like me to test it (mode/megapixels etc)

LS992 USA Sprint model also had an update this week. Same date on security patch - 1st of June 2017.
Poland got it today as well. Probably it's the security patch only, as I see that LG starts to treat this issue more seriously lately.
Yea. Just got it in UK. Security update from April to June but can't sre much else. Still 7.0.
So it's mostly just containing the Qualcomm exploit patches I assume? Was about time.

In this case since lowering color temperature with third part Apps seems drastically reduce the image retention effect(after this tweak I haven't see the problem again, before the tweak, retention was so strong to be visible even after display shutdown for a whole day) would be possible a patch for calibrating better the display to avoid the problem.

Can I use AAC codec for a Bluetooth device not included in the Qualcomm Whitelist? (airpods, wf 1000x, qcy t1....)
For other manufacturers, codecs are available. Sony is not possible. Qualcomm told the manufacturer to change the settings. Sony has not changed the settings. Did sony update this at this time?

Unfortunately I installed Pie on my Xperia XZ Premium. Phone is now completely useless becouse I cannot even change volume of ringer. Is it any way to repair xz premium without unlocking bootloader? I wonder back to Android Oreo or Nougat? I have bought fully working phone without silly limitation from Android 9.0. Maybe the best way is to send phone on RMA where they repair phone or send phone directly to seller and request another one without defect known as Android Pie?
