Awesome, thanks ZTE!

Any mention as of when?
Thanks for sharing the info

what a shame from zte, this is unbelievable,
they mentioned that they will fix "the most" bugs in the upcoming update, why not all those incredible bugs? so, does this mean that we will have bugs though? incredible! this company is really curious and not from this world in my eyes and i can say for now that i never-ever will buy things from them!

Shame to watch you leave.

well, yes they release bugged soft, but at least they do update the phone. i remember having huawei mate 7. huawei used to release newer android iteration like year after it's release and left us all on buggy software that barely worked..

Good job ZTE!

They said very soon on Facebook I dont have a fix date sorry

It seems the update is already out for the Chinese version and it fixed the Play Store problem.

Gloabal Version should get a update soon too haha and it google play store is fixed too

Hopefully it will fix Android Pay as well. It got broken between 7.0 and 7.1.1. Although I suspect this is more of a certificate issue.

Want a stable device? Use the software they came with (6.0).
buggy software is not unique for ZTE and tbh, the 7.1.1 update is BETA for G devices anyway. Officialy my device is on 6.0.1 with B6. And it's stable and has all the features i bought the phone for.
People buy budget devices and get irritated that they dont offer premium support like Pixel regarding software.. You cheap out and this is what you get.
More and more of the market is cheap-ish devices (compared to high end like samsung, pixel or 700+ buck devices) and one thing is common - hardware is what earns them money and there is 0 incentive for companies like ZTE to update devices after initial sale. Updating a 9 month old device earns them no more sales and only cost them developer time.

I think you'll find 7.0 is official. The 2017G version was very stable - better than the US variant.
7.1.1 is also an official OTA update. Hopefully this bug fix patch will address the issues that crept in from 7.0. I suspect the 7.1.1 build was based on the US version, not Global.

Thank god for that, and honestly raw mode for the camera is so needed as the image processing is of the worst I've ever seen on a phone for the last 5 years, and yes i do mean that. The camera is appalling, i don't know if the image quality could be fixed with software or if the hardware is so flawed in terms of camera it doesn't matter what they do.
Sounds like a moan, so just to say love the A7, but the camera is just such a chink in its armour.

its out, came through ota. im on a2017g where i first manually upgraded to 7.0, then ~400mb ota update to 7.1.1 and this came today after i checked update app.

Play store bug seems fixed. Before update, updating apps showed 'waiting for network', after the update the apps installed right away. Glad it's fixed!
'Newly added Android Pure Launcher 3' - does anyone know what this means? I see no other options under Settings - Themes.
Also, before 7.1.1 update, the zte locker showed more different lockscreen images, it seems the images don't update anymore. Anyone else notice this?

After updated to B02, I can't get my Sandisk 200GB microSD work with the phone anymore, and it makes the data network fail to connect as well... Could only use with my 64GB microSD card

You can set stock android launcher under Settings- Default apps

Those issue introduced with 7 and 7.1.1(B01) and have mentioned it several time.
Now I'm on 6.0.1(B11) and works flawlessly just like all time when ZTE released that feature with B08 for G version.
Since ZTE didn't address that issue I'm staying at 6.0.1 and not gone upgrade.

Are you satisfied with your Z Ultra?

I'd really like to have one, but there are a couple of issues: The screen...if I bought a used one, for example, can I get the warranty honored? Secondly, the SOD: Has it been solved?

I'm very happy with my two (one as a incar GPS/test box). Good luck on warranty on a used one, Sony here in NZ didn't want to know for my second one (I brought it broken), although they are a gray import here.
The sleep of death was solved a long time ago on one of the 4.2 updates. There is 4.4.4 kicking around noe.
Yes, i am very satisfied with Z Ultra. Nope the chances for me to go back to small screen is very much gone... Unless no Z2 Ultra in the future.
But as of now, Z Ultra is really great. never got satisfied more than this. Battery Life might need to be better but 5 hour real time screen time average is very respectable for such screen size and power engine
Short answer: Yes. Very. I'll probably stick with it for another year (have had mine for around 10 months now).
horribly glitchy, unpredictable, can't depend on it, countless small little annoyances everywhere
but every android phone is like that... at least this one has a huge screen and is rather fast so yeah i guess

YES, I AM
Except when I'm learning now how to create a custom recovery...
And I don't understand anything, I locked back my bootloader... Still rooted on stock .108
I'm trying to create a website dedicated for this C6833
To avoid any confusion between the Z1 and our Z Ultra
(even if they are pretty close the same)
(I'm recreating a new account on XDA because I forgot my old one, and those 10 posts minimum gets me very angry)
I am very happy with my C6802 almost 11 months after getting it (bought it early August last year). It is still unsurpassed and despite about three weeks before root was possible (vRoot unfortunately), the arrival of GPe got things going.
It is the best phablet made to this date; I don't consider any other device close beside the Oppo Find 7. The only thing I am worried about is the lack of any successor rumor or even information about upcoming devices in the same category. The only competitors I know about right now is the Oppo N1 and Huawei Ascend Mate 2, both with weaker hardware.
My requirements for a new device is Snapdragon 810/815, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB internal storage, 6.5-7 inch screen, keyboard cover as an option, camera not important (have the QX10 for that), microSDXC slot and... either Google vanilla/Android Silver or CM-based. Sony implementation is OK.
I guess next year will bring those things to the table but it would be great with some decent phablets this fall since it would indicate that the segment is alive and well. Right now, the Ultra is in a class of its own and any other device means compromising on the core: a solution that is a true tablet replacement with great software.
Edit: The GPe ROM paired with Xposed Framework and optimized Dalvik libraries (compensating for the ART/Xposed issue) make the Ultra a completely superior phablet. I have tried the Note 3 (which is hyped as being such a great device) several times and it is far, far behind the Ultra in every aspect besides the camera. The best features of it such as multiwindow is available on the Ultra through Xposed and it works great.

Need developpers to resolve two small issues on CM12 base

Hello,
I was very disappointed on sony since their official lollipop release, check it here https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z-Ultra/sony-z-ultra-5-0-update-bugs/m-p/970604#U970604
And, begging for small devs to find why the device, when using a custom rom, has a very small, low, volume recording while recording with the camera app, snapchat, and, even shazam cannot recognize the sound because it's very low.
And, there's a second issue, we need to port the camera app from Kit Kat to CM12, because the camera app that they has released lags a lot...
I bet that for developpers, or even regular people that knows what to do could easily do something... This is just to edit some letters or words in a file or some files for the sound, and the camera port, it's just to create something but I don't know how...
Do you think that would work ?
See ? Nobody cares

Hi Digitalizeur
I see that nobody cares your project, that is very bad, you have good ideas
I don't have the experience to help you, sorry
But one thing I can say, you cannot Port KK Stock camera to CM12, but LP Stock Camera is possible to port, I don't know how but I know that is possible ?

Should I get an iPhone 6 Plus ?
Because I hate every stock rom from sony, and, I hate every cyanogenmod based rom because they don't work for audio capture and audio reproduction.
That's a shame. (it's ain't even hard to allow a decent recording volume for the device, I don't understand why they don't work on this).
I used to hate acer for their liquid mini (E310) that lagged as hell, then I got the Galaxy Note GT-N7000, it was so laggy on stock, couldn't even draw anything in a online game, I could only use the kernel for CyanogenMod 11 that I was able to overclock to get a decent fluidity... Now I have this Z Ultra that nobody works on it
the worst part of this issue is to not be able to record a song with shazam

IPhone would be a fine choice. I quite like iOS.
I get the feeling that you'll find something to hate about any phone that you have.
I've never used Shazam so im afraid that i struggle to empathise.
Good luck.
A new hope ... May be

Question Oneplus 9R is Still worth it this 2022?

I would like to ask if Oneplus 9r is still worth it to buy this 2022?
I've seen alot of negative comments about the updates of oneplus and the news that it will be discontinued?
ColorOS for OnePlus's update progress is a bit slow...OOS 12 RIP(for it is based on Color instead of OOS)...
However it runs smoother if you use a custom ROM.
was the update for 9r stable or not? cuz i'm planning to buy to this phone, my only concern is that the update if it is stable or not

If you still think so, I suggest you buy OnePlus 9RT.
because 9R and 8T are actually similar, and even the firmware is common.
Wait for 9RT

How to go back to coloros? Like u got color os msm tool for 9r?
I have a 9R, it's a superb phone. I have absolutely no issues with it. Like it's totally super great. Not trying to be sarcastic. Only one downside - the phone can't go SUPER loud call volume. But unfortunately this plagues the 9 Pro as well - and the 8T which is the same internals as the 9R minus the SOC.
And for some reason the call volume thing only happened to like one-two people. I bought a 9 Pro to alleviate the problem and guess what? Still can't hear crap. OnePlus phones are just generally more quiet than a Pixel 4a or a like a Samsung flagship.
But yeah, if I were to buy a Samsung, I'd spend like 1500$ on the phone, and the updates would slow it down to a crawl within a few months. I've had like Note 4, Note 9, Note 10+ and they all been the same.
So yeah. Good phone.
- Great GPS signal
- Great sound
- Great performance, no overheating/heat problems
- Battery has been solid, though, 1 day with heavy use (well you can buy a 6000-7000mAh "phone" with 250g weight if you want more lol)
I've been also using the ColorOS on my 9 Pro for a while now. Honestly, it's not so bad. Been a bit rough on the edges at start but you can live with it and updates will fix these minor problems.

good news!
the high-lighted features from sony website are really not the as BIG as the article says, becuase all these features have been implemented for a long time with Chinese mobile phone manufacturers since Android 10....
i'm wondering if my Xperia 1 III will get a better battery life by updating to Android 12...
I'm waiting for this update because the truth is that the Battery Life of the Xperia 1 Mark III is terrible. 2% battery drain in IDLE with the screen off. I Hope they improved this.
From reddit:
It seems we can finally customize google asssitant button?
https://wx3.sinaimg.cn/mw2000/68327346ly1gy5ba1tbqtj219o2yodqi.jpg
Anyone can confirm?
Well, your link is forbidden (at least for me) and I already remapped my button a long time ago. Here on XDA are the instructions. Pretty easy actually. What I want to see from this upgrade is 1st and foremost a true SA 5G implementation. 2nd...anything that needs improving let's get it done.
These two are a daily hassle that I'd love to see fixed:
SA 5G fix for USA model
Workaround for Google's broken microSd access
The LTE + NR71 combo it uses for NSA 5G drops a lot and can take minutes to recover.
I'm using old versions of apps to not hit Google's Nov 2021 mandatory migration to SAF for microSd. Google's SAF is so broken that apps only lock up or crash using it. Some phone makers are providing an SAF bypass setting that gets them Google certified without permanently losing microSd use.
In SONY website about the Android 12 update they never mentioned Material U in the feature section, can anyone who upgraded tell us about Material U and how many Sony apps that supports it

Thank you for sharing this info but unfortunately that's a bit disappointing, I was expecting a better implementation from Sony
Can someone share a video or screenshots or recordings etc.
Actually I'm still on Xperia 1 but would like to see Sony's Android 12.
Can someone comfirm any changes for camera app with A12? Or improvements in picture quality, especially in low light? There have been rumors that picture quality in basic mode (point and shoot) will be more similar to other flagships out there with A12, which sounds like a sort of nightmode.
I upgrade it Android 12 and really bad. Sorry guys nothing new...
@Mazellat
What do you mean with "very bad"? Related to the overall experience or that there are nearly no changes?
Performance is same with Android 11 and battery performance improved especially for phone is sleeping. But there is no Material U like Pixel phones.
I will make a screen video for you...
@Mazellat
Well that would be a bit suprising with the sony-launcher in place - don't think they'll update him before 1 IV to support Material U. If they do concider to do it...
The improvement in battery life seems intresting. maybe we can get some more juice out of it.
Can you take a look if the camera apps are updated / have different versions then on the last Android 11 build.

Question Xperia overheating problem

Hello. I am following user experiences with this phone and lately i have saw that many people have started to complain about its overheating thing. I have almost bought this phone recently but after i saw that this is maybe not i software issue but more likely hardware i pulled back. Is it really so overheating that cant use in normal basis and maybe there was an update and issue fixed?
Welcome to XDA
You probably should hold off until the dust settles... if it ever does.
Variable refresh rate displays have been nothing but trouble. Android 11 and especially 12 are no blessing either.
Expensive hand warmers are getting popular it seems.
I do like to hear fresh current user experiences from I IV users. I heard that in USA there have been an update who fixed this problem.
I have Xperia 1 II and would like to buy 1 IV because there is i good deal. I dont want to miss it.

Hi, i posted here* my experience (notice it has been updated to firmware 64.0.A.5.71 (Europe) since that post (before was 64.0.A.5.27) , and as it was the 12th July , i didnt get enough time to check if there were some improvements for the heat worry with video/photo .
Also since i had been suggested by sony support to do a "software fix/repair" (translated from french) with the Xperia Companion App , rather than a factory reset .
i am not willing to do that because as you may know , for none-rooted devices only google Backup is available and not all google Apps will be restored with their settings (parameters, logins, passwords) , it depends on developpers choices, so, as i had already to do that for migrating from my Samsung S20 to Xperia I.IV , i spent 3 days to set/fix all apps (only 90/250 wre fully restored)

You're best off if you can find the root cause or a work around for the issue(s).
Updates may make matters worse and change the playing field which means more of your time to relearn it and new issues to find workarounds for
Play with it. Eventually you'll likely track it down.
This N10+ is still running well on Pie. Current load is over 2 yo, still fast and stable with minimal maintenance. Once optimized this is what Android is capable of... no need to upgrade or update. Security isn't an issue unless you do something stupid on Android 9 and higher.
I use ApkExport to make installable copies of all my apps including system apks. I use apps that support full backup data like Poweramp and ColorNote.
There may be a more recent version; not sure if this will run on Android 11 and up. Still works on 10 I believe.

You're welcome.
My Samsung Note 10+ experience is an example of why you want to work it through. Learn, and use the tools available to troubleshoot the issues. After you play with it for a while it's idiosyncrasies start making sense. Upgrade/update only if really needed and is a well researched decision. I think Android 9 was the OS's zenith. Android 12 isn't pretty and 13 looks like a complete disaster so far.
I paid for Poweramp too, no regrets it's the best.
I use ColorNote for my bookmarks. You can hyperlink directly to the webpage from ColorNote. I firewall block ColorNote however just to be on the safe side. It auto backs up to my SD card

Hi just got today from Sony support : "
We have just released a maintenance software update to address heat buildup and improve image quality when shooting with the telephoto lens.
The update will be available from August in Europe (update availability may vary by region and carrier). It is always recommended to update your device with the latest software available."

Hi, i tested and saw no great improvment so far : before, using Video Pro [dont know the name in English , translated from french, but not the Movie Pro(with venice settings etc)]
with last but one firmware between 12' and 15' of video (indoor, not moving, pointed to my TV playing a movie) T° around 30°C) then stops ; with latest firmware 18'
i am using the default settings (see capture) but perhaps mine is definitively a faulty unit
If you cannot deal with the overheating, just return the phone. Sony will not be able to solve the lack of heat sink with software update and give us the full power of the 8 gen 1 chip. This phone should have been designed at least as thick as the camera units on it, including a bigger battery and a proper vapour chamber heat sink to utilize this chip to its full potential. I am a sony user since 2005 some sony devices are good some are better, some are totally junk. There is only one phone currently that did a proper job. "ZTE nubia REDMAGIC 7 5G Gaming Phone"

Is the overheating fixed? Or does still persist?
