[Q] Problems with Lollipop 5.0.2? - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, New here.
I just got an OTA for 5.0.2 and still haven't updated. I switched to xperia Z3 after having a Nexus 5 because the lollipop update really messed it up. (slows down my phone, GPS had problems, battery, reception, Static noise when plugging AUX and USB at the same time etc...)
So my question is - is the lollipop update works fine with the Z3? I don't want to risk updating it if it's going to bring a swarm of bugs and problems to the phone since I am really loving the 4.4 on the Xperia.
Would love to hear you guys input on this update

I guess you find some threads about Lollipop ? experience in the General section. Basically nothing much to complain.

Missed 4.4.1 update on Nexus 5

Helllo there, I have a curious problem with my Nexus 5. My wife bought it as a Christmas gift over Thanksgiving week.However, the phone was not activated until Christmas. When I activated the phone it had kitkat 4.4 and automatically upgraded to 4.4.2. I have been noticing some lagging with the camera focus. My question is Did I miss the 4.4.1 upgrade which was supposed to fix the camera issue? Or does 4.4.2 fixes the issue and this is as good as it gets?Thanks for the input.
Every update includes previous updates. You can't miss changes by skipping a version. You can try factory resetting it. I like to do that after every update anyways.

That's not a problem at all. Google does staged roll outs for android. That means that not all devices get the update at the same time. In case of 4.4.1 it seems that google realized that they messed something up, stopped the rollout of 4.4.1 and immediately pushed 4.4.2 as a hotfix release. So it is completely normal that you just got the 4.4.2 update. You didn't miss any features.

Android 5.1 Ram leak

Hello guys i have received about a week ago the OTA update for Android 5.1. As much i did like to see this update fixing issues for my Nexus 5 do i still have a bug/glitch. I am not 100% sure if this is the exact same bug as in Android 5.0 (ram leak). Last night i was using my phone as a normal day but then it all happens again.. I reseted the phone early the morning because i had high ram usage which shouldn't be a problem as long everything works fine. Although i am driving crazy with the problems i have to deal with. I decided to make a video from what happens on my phone so people will have an idea what i am talking about. I will share the video from youtube i recently uploaded in the hope people may help me with. I am running official android 5.1 that came with the OTA update. This is a locked non rooted Nexus 5.
Thank you very much for taking your time and i really appreciate it.
P.s English is not my major language( I have spoken in the video). Even you turn off the sounds you will understand what is going on.

Not so happy with the battery life, I expected so much more and in return I get way less. In standby I lose 2% of battery every hour (with data and BT on and no phone usage, just standby) while on KK 4.4.2 it was more like 1% (with data and BT on and no phone usage, just standby). Sorry but I had so high hopes for standby battery life since it was the strong point of this update.
On Lolipop in the battery section everything seems fine, but the battery drops sharply sometimes. Before the update I wiped the phone, updated with official 5.0.1 (BTU) and wiped the phone again... so I've done everything by the book.
BetterBatteryStats that I purchased and used with great results does not work on Lolipop anymore unless you root it (I will not do that).
Also some apps have issues with the BT while streaming music to my car... it could be from the OS or App... can't really tell... the thing is with the KK and the same app I did not had any issues.
Another another bug that I've discovered is that sometimes in the Battery section the wi-fi is reported to be ON even though it is off and the option "Always allow scanning" is off in my settings. A phone restart is the only cure for this issue.
Ita first version so ofc its gonna have some small bugs...
Remember how many updates 4.4.2 got after initial release...
I just hope we got latest 5.1 and not bug fixes for 5.0.1...
Lollipop update is posted in I9505XXUHOA7 Odin files Multilang. . + Guide for ROOT . Works 100 % (EUR)
Any further discussions / issues belong there.
Thread Closed.

Should I upgrade to 5.1?????

Hi,
Did upgrade to 5.1, started having the usual issues as WiFi not connecting, cellular network issues. Sent the the phone to LG, they replaced it with a new PCB/motherboard. Came back with 5.0.1. Now, the 5.1 is available to upgrade. Should I or stay with 5.0.1?
Every time the phone goes for service, I stuck with an iPhone or blackberry. I hate both devices.

I don't see why shouldn't you, upgrading your Android won't destroy your devices motherboard, it makes your software better and more secure.

You must. In the name of science. So we all, that get those issues, know where the problem is.
Definitely upgrade. 5.1 addresses numerous issues, including a memory leak that was pretty bad, it doesn't completely fix then leak, but it does help. 5.1 runs substantially more stable, and it's also been show to dramatically increase battery duration on mobiles.
But a lot of us have remained with kitkat because of the many reported problems with lollipop. Have these problems been fixed now? Is lollipop better than kitkat? How?
Do xprivacy and gravitybox now work in Lollipop?
Thanks.

Questions about upgrading Xperia L C2104

Hello everyone!
I have a Sony Xperia L C2104 with Android 4.2.2, I was seeing all threads and realized that I can upgrade it to Android 7 but I have a few questions before upgrading it, haha
I have a generic touch screen on my phone. Sometimes it gives me problems that it starts going crazy, touching itself so many times that I need to remove the battery so I can turn off the phone ... I don't know if that problem is from the touch screen itself or maybe its the OS that its not compatible with the touch screen so I am asking that if I upgrade the phone to Android 7, there may be problems that touch on the phone may not work? Or do you know if the problem may be fixed if I upgrade? Or maybe it will stay the same?
I have another question, the NFC will still work on the phone without problems?
