I just had a notification for the update and have no idea what it is about.
By looking its size (around 700Mb? can't remember) I am guessing it is update for Nougat...
I will find out if the update is complete but is there any one who already finish the update?

Updated with thus new update. They just included the December security patch and also now Google duo (video calling app like imo) is an system app. U can't un install it but can disable it. Other than this no visual changes
Well it seems that XA series(XA,XA dual, XA ultra, XA ultra dual)will get the nougat on July for European single SIM versions- and for the rest of the world and
dual SIM versions the update will be delayed till 1 August 2017.but something is weird because even the old Z3+ get the nougat..And then I found on some forums the main problem is MTK processor,he is not so powerful as we think,the specifications are only "on the paper" if you know what I mean that's why almost 70%of phones with MT6755 use the manufacturer own modified OS(color os,MiUi, Flyme Os,etc)and just because Google force big manufacturers on the market to add more and bigger ****ty apps on their phones with every update,for example if u remember the older version of "Google Play Services" for Android 6.0 was 17 MB now it's 40MB and there are many other examples,actually there are some rumors that Google will not allow mobile producers to modify the next Android 8 (Oreo) because Google plans to have their own stock interface for all the mobile phones on the market,that's why Samsung developed their own operating system called Tizen OS project and last update release was like 12 days ago,the new interface now available on Samsung S8 and S8+ is part of Tizen project...

I noticed apps are increasing in size (MB), which is affecting the performance of my XA ULTRA. It also infuriates me that this is 16GB storage while XA1 Ultra is 32GB. I have had to delete apps as I don't have the needed space, and some apps cannot be deleted, even though there are some that are completely useless to me.

Just updated OS yesterday, tried OTA and failed when it became available Thursday or Friday last week, here in the ?? US. Actually, was around a bit over 908 MB, which as I previously stated, had to delete or roll back apps to gain enough memory so I could update to new OS. It somehow provisioned memory space that is now much more efficient than previous OS.

Yes please, Im using the sony concept on my z3 compact phone and its amazing, its amazingly fast, and the feature I am waiting so much is adoptive storage, I have a 64gb micro sd on my tablet but since the 16gb internal fill up so much its pretty much useless to have a micro sd, on my phone on the other hand with android 6.0, it takes the micro sd and the internal storage as one partition, so I dont have to worry about moving any file, and as far as android goes, I have 70gb of storage , I NEED THIS ON MY TABLET NOW!!

Yep only thing im intetested in with marshmallow is the storage improvement. I have a 128gb and 200 gb card waiting but suspect the 128gb is the max for this device.
Sony is slated to release Android 6.0 Marshmallow upgrade to Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact in a few weeks' time.

(I am still in 4.4.4, 23.0.1.A.0.167)
Still waiting Sony......
Still waiting. Early-mid March. Xperia Z3 Compact Tab SGP621. Heck, I didn't even get the 23.4.A.1.264 update.
dudes i have PERFECT results as concern speed and battery with stock KK and this fully debloating script http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/kk-debloating-script-xperia-phones-t3192846.I have more than 10 hours screen on time with browsing internet.I am not an expert but from what i read about android 6,i don't believe that it will be more stable from KK.Basically i believe no-one OS till now is better from KK.And don't forget that 34% from all android devices run KK.Also if you have root like me,you can easilly customize your rom to add android M features

Anybody test if the new beta is aviable for our device? I can't because I have KK, like the guy above say the battery in KK is the best!

Doesn't look like the Tablet gets the beta.
Just have to wait
(But it works great on lollipop too, maybe better on kitkat, but I never used it on KK).
On the Z5 on the other hand, lollipop was lollipoo.
Its ridiculous we almost at April and we still dont have MM on Z3tc...
I have some bugs on my device probably fixed with 6.0.... Sony is the worst to release updates. =/

I know it supersucks because we and the z2 tablet are the only ones who don't have MM, z5 have it and Z3 and z2 users have the concept since December and now the beta... But us NOTHING, The Z3 line all have the same processor, the EXACT model, is that hard to make available the concept for us??.... .....
The whole Sony tablet phone is not bad to the ones are not super into especific stuff, but about updates and that Sony sucks a lot.
For me is the last thing Sony I will buy tablet or phone atm

what will you do more with MM?
This tablet runs better than every MM tablet ...
Anyway I have Samusng and Sony smartphones and they get MM togheter in march but for example Nexus got MM before: it crashed, drained battery and it seemed a crash test of the new Android version...I prefer a better device with a better software, also if the software is older labeled but play more things than newer
After seeing Xperia C4,Xperia C5 Ultra and now Xperia M5 got android 5.1 update out of the nowhere should we expect it on M4 soon?
Those phones should skip 5.1 and go directly ti 6.0 but Sony changed their minds...
Only M4 left on 5.0 for now...
Keep in mind that c4, c5 and m5 use same mediatek chipset so once 5.1 came for c4 it was matter of time to appear also for c5 and m5. Our M4 aqua uses qualcomm chipset so i do not expect 5.1 for it. It should be easier for sony to get 6.0 working on the qualcomm than on mediatek so i think that we will get directly 6.0 while c4, c5 and m5 will get it later than us and that's why sony released 5.1 for these models to calm down the owners. We will see.
End of february beginning of March for marshmallow on m4 aqua

Where did you get this information from?
Official the S6 and S6 edge will get 6.0 february/march. And for the M4 it says first quarter, so it's more likely end of march or second quarter
Never seen any real date for any Sony Xperia phones and marshmallow, so a month time for M4 is very unlikely. First of they need to roll it on z5 series, then the rest of the z series. And lastly on other Xperia models... I hope we get 6.0 before summer.

Also, people can get very anxious about UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE, but have you seen what's in these updates? Barely anything, from what I can see. Even the major updates from 5.0 to 6.0. How much of it is visible to the consumer?
Bug fixes (don't care)
developer tools (don't care, not releveant),
driver updates (don't care)
oh and they fixed the sound toggles that they broke in 5.0 that nobody liked. Wow, thanks!
zzzzzzzz
When Android 10.0 comes out call me. Maybe there'll be something new.
In M4's case, we will get a possibility to use SD card as a phone memory, and considering the lack of space this phone has, marshmallow is a big thing...

Thats the main point of the #M46.0HYPETRAIN thing. We are all waiting for that!
I believe we will get after April.
Or faster we have stable custom rom(cm 13, AOSP)

In XperiFirm i see that there is a new firmware released for Denmark, Nordic and Baltic (E2303) 26.1.A3.93. Going by the number looks like the firmware could be 5.1.
has any one got the update, can any one confirm.
It's not 5.1. It is still 5.0, but my phone got 300mb extra free space. They have removed something. Haven't found what it is yet.
My FW is 26.1.A.3.92. Upgraded this morning through Xperia companion.

I have the north American 16GB version.
- SD card as expanded internal memory (I don't care).
And I'm a consumer. Of course I get to evaluate the $300 products I buy and their support. "crappy post" doesn't make sense.

If it isn't relevant to you, why comment? There are always bug fixes and security fixes that do matter to a lot of people, whether you include yourself in that group or not is a moot point.

Why did I comment? Go back to the first post. The first post talks about ETAs for arrival of the next major Android update. The entire point of my comment, which you've apparently missed, was that I'm not convinced by anything I've read about the update that is a significant improvement from the customer standpoint, so I'm relaxed about the ETA. My point is valid, even if it's different to your's, or just because you don't understand. Moot that. There's nothing more useful for me in this thread so it's my final comment to you.
I have the Xperia XA so am still awaiting on Nougat, but I want to know from the Xperia X users who have already gotten 7.0 does it have the Night Light setting/Night mode in the system ui tuner?

Yes, system UI tuner is thankfully not disabled by Sony, nor is the code for night mode removed so it can be enabled from there with the help of an app called Night Mode enabler which can be downloaded from the Play store.
No root required.

This feature still isn't a norm in Android 7.0.x.
They've removed it from the finial builds of 7.0, and the only reason why it can be enabled with just an app was because the code for night mode was still present.
iOS 9.3 had it back in mid 2016
Windows Phone 10 Creator recently got it
Android... O hopefully.....

I thought they made it official in 7.1 Nougat? At least on Pixel devices? Not sure if my phone will get 7.1, we haven't even got 7.0 yet. Typical life of a mid ranger.

I think they'd have to wait for Mediatek to release with Android N kernel sources before any development can get under way.
Generally; Mediatek, and likewise Nvidia like to slack behind.
I though that the X was the mid ranger.

I honestly don't know what Sony were thinking last year, killing off the Z Series then bringing back the X Series with a over priced mid ranger which to them must of been a flagship. Then what makes it worse is that they've gotten rid of Xperia keyboard as well as some other stock Sony apps and replaced them with the Google equivalent, it just gives the impression that the ROM is half baked. I'd rather they made it all Google apps with the Sony media apps.
But it runs super smooth though. :good:

Agreed with the overpriced part. I only purchased with the X because it was on special. A medium-high mid ranger priced at below your typical mid ranger phone like the A5, 5X.
Clean light skin with some good nifty, but functional tweaks...... most other manufacturer phone.
Most of the Sony apps can actually be downloaded from the Play store, including the keyboard through it says that my device isn't compatable with it.

Continuation of the 2014 thread.
OK, I'll chime in. Just short of paying $1K for the new Note 8, I'd say the Z Ultra still holds its own.
Yup , Z ultra is my dailly driver for almost every thing , amazing battery and running KK, Aosp MM , lollipop , marshmellow and Noughat almost every thing , I bet it will run Oreo as well , coz of its powerful hardware ... if by any mean we will get the binaries and some devs who are still working on building .for this amazing machine..

I can ask you a tip ...
I had this terminal just came out, but then I sold it, now I bought it back, and as soon as I got installed a number of roms, but in all the roms I tried the battery convinces me. I changed the battery, but I think but I do not think the situation is combiata.
What rom you use?
Anyone still using Sony ultra z in Nvember 2020? I got myself a Huawei mate pro30 - like its speed , camera and the fact I can install as many applications that I like without worrying for its storage space and memory. Yet scrolling Facebook just on it just made me missed my Sony ultra z - I miss the big screen and the Xperia Chinese keyboard which offers t9 English keyboard and ability to write Chinese on it. I bought Huawei mate30¤ pro as it's half its original retail price and the fact of it has 5G option makes it an easy ( but regrettable decision)...

Yeah, still using it, for the same purpose I purchased it back in 2014. With OruxMaps it gives a great Bicyle GPS. It is easy & Cheap to repair (Battery, Screen, all easy to get) and I even bought a second one as backup. Latest Android 5 updates were supplied from this forum until end of last year - what more can you expect? Further Software updated would be great, but it will even continue to work without...

Hi, I already update to Android 12 and there are not many visual changes because of the One UI layer, but I wanted to ask if you know anything about an update to Android 12L, I wish you could have an interface like the stock one. Greetings to all from Latam

first no way to turn off RAM plus, this device only 32GB, now force use RAM plus
second half of app when tap back, it act like we press home key, keep running at background, so some app will not refresh when open back
third, samsung keyboard no more do spell check, that option is missing
and what the point show date on top of screen? i know can turn off

I downloaded it in the USA this monday. Apps and web pages seem to load a bit more smoothly and quickly, in my experience. I haven't noticed any other differences, but I haven't hunted for them, and I'm using Nova Launcher, which may be hiding any potential cosmetic changes.
