We can't predict the future, you know. So we don't know if we'll ever have a stable CM. And your choice depends on what do you want your phone for. If you're a heavy user/gamer, then this phone suits you perfectly. If you like taking photos, you might want to look forward to another phone, since Xperia L has alot of camera issues, such as high exposure on low light and image flicking while recording on indoor enviroinments.

I suggest to wait or save your money for other brands or other models... Xperia L has some issues and even up to now the issue isn't solve. It has been two months since the last update but still no fixes on those crucial ones

1. There is problem with the WiFi what so ever. It's the router/modem.
2. Touch screen sensitivity can can be a problem sometimes while zooming in or out. Otherwise it's good.
3. There are no HW camera issue. Only SW camera issue. So expect them to be resolved in 4.2.2 or 4.3 or CM.
4. I am hearing this for the first time. No mic quality issues. Mic is great according to me.
If you're not convinced about the camera, talk to @shivamk11 and look into his thread!

Ok, thanks, but i watched some video samples from this phone and the sound was not that good which means voices will seem unnatural to the other party im calling.
And what about this memory full issue : http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-L/Device-memory-full-in-xperia-L/td-p/347456
Does it happen to all phones or certain firmwares only ? Is it fixed with 2.17 update ?
I also heard read about restarting due to home screen wallpaper issues, is it true ?
I dunno, this phone seems to have many issues.

That memory issue is one of the biggest bugs on xperia L. If you're planning to root XL, no need it worry as it can be solved.
However, if you're not keen on rooting, there's a decent chance that you could face this problem. & NO, this bug is not fixed with the 2.17 update.
I am currently on 2.17 & still face this problem. Haven't yet faced the restarting problem..
what about battery life can anybody tell me about it?

If you are confused between Xperia M and Xperia L ...
Then blindly go for Xperia L .
According to me Xperia L is better in all terms in comparison to Xperia M .
hey guys, after watching xperia l review on youtube on almost every different channel, none other of them complains about touch issue. but when i go to xda, suddenly theres a ton of L user complaining about low senitivity touchscreen issues..
does the touchscreen issue only happens to some people or all L users?

The camera problems on the Xperia L are obvious. Do you have any solutions? If you have any work arounds please post them. Also post any bugs you have noticed and the build number or custom roms used. Here are things I've noticed.
Third party apps like Camera MX works better than the Sony camera app. How is that possible?
Problems
Flash does not expose properly in extreme low light (like a poorly lit livingroom)
Anything over 3 feet is horribly out of focus.
Shutter speed to slow to catch any moving subject.
Horrible noise in anything less than bright sunlight.
Possible reasons
Many phones have a macro setting (This enables the focus to limit the focus distance and speed up focus for close and distant objects)
No continous auto focus (that may be the reason moving subjects are never in focus)
Shutter speed too slow (another reason subjects are often out of focus)
Image size in relation to sensor. (the sensor could be too small or placed where heat is a problem) I'm sure users would rather have a smaller image that is clean over a large image that is noisy.
A setting to allow release of shutter even if no focus lock.
I bought this phone over others is because Sony claimed almost no shutter lag and good images in low light. The phone does neither. I love everything else abou this phone. It's light, packed with excellent features and the audio and the phone's reception are excellent. Why Sony is marketing this as a good camera phone is beyond me.
Xperia L stock build 15.0.A.2.17
I am also experiencing such problems. When my phone was on the old firmware, exposure are always accurate and autofocus functions well. Images are crisp and sharp but after going to 15.0.A.2.17 it seems quality became crappy compare to 15.0.A.1.36
Camera Problems
I'ts a smartphone with camera, not a camera with phone features. give it a break, its good enough for social sharing and common use, you know taking family spontaneous pictures or shooting on the go, it wouldn't be wise if try to make my professional shoots with this one instead of my dslr.
do you think guys that sony can fix the shutter delay/lag and image noise via software update?

I don't expect to perform like my DSLR but I do expect it to take a better photo than my 4 yo Sony Xperia X10a. Especially when Sony has sold it as the phone that takes quality photos. I know there is always some hype, it's called marketing. But the phone's photos are horrible. They look worse than a cheapo Chinese knockoff phone.

i also bought this phone because sony said this is camera phone. -_- (good for low light) and can capture that famous hourse running on the beach

I paid for it, I'll complain if I want. I didn't get a used phone on ebay. I bought it new and Sony needs to support it's products and be honest in it's advertisement. Marketing is one thing, being deseptive is another. If they want to allow it to be unlocked without voiding the warranty I would flash a different rom. BTW if the camera was even better than average I would give it 5 stars. Great sound, very fast, very good battery life, decient screen, packed with features noise canceling mic, dedicated shutter release, fm radio ETC.

The main problem is that 50% of ppls not having this issue (donno what type of SKIN they have) so we cant do **** . Did u compare ur Xperia L's touch screen with other low end phones ? Xperia L has worst touch screen compare to Samsung S advance , ACE + , Xperia M , TIPO , Xperia J

Wait... So you bought a phone with a 1gHz processor and now you're planning to buy a phone with a 800 mHz processor?
That seems a bit odd to me. The Tipo Dual lags less than the Xperia E because the Tipo has ICS and the Xperia E JellyBean. JellyBean needs better system requirements than ICS.
My advice would be to save up for a Moto G. You can buy them now for 180 euros, and the specs outmatch the Tipo a bazillion times!
It's your choice of course!

I have a problem with my Xperia Tipo Dual since last update. There is official system in it without customisation or another changes. But when I updated the phone via Sony PC Companion, it is rebooting approximatelly 2 or 3 times per day. I gave the phone to my wife and she uses the phone just sometimes and only for calls and SMS so, nothing difficult. Does anyone of you have any idea, what could I do with it, please?

Lag is comman in every phone
so talking about tipo lag then there is no lag regarding lock screen or calls
there is problem if u install more apps
it is due to RAM and processor problems

Can you give me a link for similar posts?I can't find my question.
No, they don't work, for now
I suggest you to wait some time, maybe they will add them when there will be a stable version.
CM12 / DRM
My opinion:
- CM12 is too fresh and still partially buggy. You can play with that, but thats IMHO all. Not considered production.
- Unless somebody makes serious effort, forget about official Sony apps. Some are bound to DRM lost in process of unlocking bootloader.
- Camera will work as good as good is the hardware of it. Picture enhancement provided by software is Sony Stock ROM specific and bound to DRM. I have seen some guys working on DRM removal.
- There may be other apps with postprocessing to compensate for Sony postprocessing (low light etc.).

Not really as it is way to early. Seems everybody concentrates on L.
What's "L"?

Lollipop
CM12 is L ...
Don't count on them being able to restore lost drm function. I already jumped ship on sony. The unlock was worth it to me since I came from a nexus. Only issue I really have so far is a battery issue I think might pertain to only a few "testers". Also, camera was never great to me... I went n5 > iPhone 6 (just two weeks) > z3. If anything I'll pick up the iPhone 6 again and use it as a weekend phone if I really start kicking myself over the camera.
Hi,
I have the dual sim version... since a quite long time I am suffering from unbearable lags... I am not sure, which update caused that and for now I am on the latest "41.2.A.7.35".. my symptoms are as follows:
- high RAM usage.
- phone becomes laggy so I know who is calling in couple of seconds after ringing
- switching between apps became impossible (like between GPS and phone call)
- sometimes I open it and I see the applications icons on the screen are refreshing like if I have just restarted the phone.
- i do 4 to 5 restarts per day to make the phone functioning but this is very annoying.
I found another thread in sonytalks about the same... they recommend to turn off google feed which is what I did 5 minutes ago and still don't know the result.

Do you have an idea, or fix, or shall I simply change the phone?
Thanks,
Same here.
Just sit down and wait for Sony release a new FW.
well i finnaly managed to get my xz working how it meant to... by unlocking bootloader....rooted.... and then flash latest ftf and andro kernel v28 and then i flashed rytekk`s battery perfomance tweak https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-xz/development/tweak-small-tweak-battery-memory-t3637240 and im happy that my xz really works now...definetly faster,smoother all around then stock non rooted.for me this is only solution...but im asking myself how they cant make a smooth stock non laggy device especialy in year 2017 where chips are so powerfull...and yea someone will say get an iphone but for me an iphone is like having an android phone with kernel enabled constantly to max perfomance with no downscaling LOL no wonder iphones drain so quickly...i just hope that brands will focus on software optimisations in the future and not so mutch about specs but yes at the end this is there strategy how to sell products.

Sad to hear it. I changed from Honor 6X.
Honor is good with their EMUI, and it also has the best fingerprint sensor that I ever used.
But I need a water proof device, so I picked XZ.
Not sure it is a good idea

Good to hear that. So we can fix or wait for SONY fix it. I have no plan to root or flash any custom FW
Wonder why SONY always have good hardware but OS/Software is a true sucker.

i think they dont want to push chips at max just to be on safe side...thats why maybe sony baterries and as a whole device can last mutch longer then Samsung devices...and did u ever heard about exploding Sony device?i still didnt...but if i pay 700e for a device witch is flagship i expect to act like one...why put a sd820 in a device when u dont even use full potencial...lamers...

Nah ... I just want my device running as fast as it can be.
BTW, removed Messenger Lite and FB Lite, RAM dropped from 2.5GB to 1.8 GB.
I think I should say bye to FB app. :cyclops:
seems turning off google feed helped so far... lower ram usage and better performance

well... after one day of testing... i wouldnt say turning off google feed and google now helped that much... it just delays the RAM filling... so the performance degradation will just be shifted and it happens

Im alergic to lag and what ur experiencig made me so mad that i had to unlock booloader and find solution to it...but as i told before this is not official solution...Sony really needs to consider about that....why we have to root the device to make it usable for our terms....Im looking in to Nokias these days and hope they gonna gonna be good...and my last Sony phone is definetly XZ .Im not looking froward to it anymore.
Try disabling the app Movie Creator and see if that helps. That was the cause in my XZ.

same like me... this is my last sony phone ever.... the phone should serve me... not me to serve the phone by disabling half of my apps aiming for a stable performance... this should not be the case
In my case, it seems it was the the latest update of Movie Creator doing something and not related to the firmware itself.
Having the same issue with my XZ Dual. Laggs are driving me nuts all the time, rebooting doesn't help for long. I have also noticed that my phone usually have loadavg at least as high as 18 all the time (do cat /proc/loadavg in terminal). Pretty overloaded.
The quickest possible way to find our who is slowing device should be running ps or top in termnal. But unfortunatelly they have very limited output without root access. And getting root is such a pain for this device.
I've noticed that my XZ started to lag after the July security updates. Maybe it has something to do with that?
Mine was lagging since at least June. Did a full wipe (i'm on stock), lags returns after reinstalling apps.
had the same issue , disable the movie making app that came with the phone ,

well rooting this device its not even close to pain ...i unlocked also Z5 before without a single problem and also backed up DRM keys and restored also without problem..the same way is for our XZ everything is clear and tested before...i never unlock booloader if there is not no option to lock it back...i check first...but i dont advise u to do that if u dont have experience with adb and flashtool...wish i would not do all of that stuff for my xz but i had to cuz its the only way to get it working smoothly.
