hello, and recently acquired xperia Z5 and let me know what would be the best firmware for the Z5, I have doubt between these 2 versions, I'm from Spain, I would like to know which of the two versions is the best?
Customized NOBA vs Customized ES?
Nordic is my preferred one but that's all it is preference

I'm from Spain.
I use rom from Italy, for me is the best.
At the moment, I have fw .224 R7C Italy with Romaur 4 & Xposed 85.
A greeting.

Customized NOBA has been my preference for a while too. But, since 6.0.1 wasn't out yet for it, I switched to Customized NL and have noticed few differences.

The 4G, 3G, etc labels are smaller in the notification bar. There was some different bloatware, but it could all be uninstalled. That's it so far. The new icons and such, I believe are part of the system update on all regional firmwares.

I have a rooted Xperia Z3 D6653, now I there's a Lollipop update. I was wonder how to do a clean update from a rooted phone to 5.0.2. It'd be nice if I can keep my root. Thanks!
Lollipop for D6653 is still not available. The update is for D6603, but its compatible for D6653 and can be installed manually using flashtool. I haven't read reports of problems after doing the upgrade

I suggest not to use D6603 ROM as may LTE modem driver are not same. I was getting low signal all the time. So still will wait for D6653.

still no update here in Indonesia.
Annoying that the Sony Mobile Indonesia facebook page, was apparently the one that leaked the rollout was coming / starting on the 16th March.
Pity that they leaked info that was incorrect, and, then, the message has been deleted.
Hopefully, we get soon
No luck for the Indian Z3 also.
Is lollipop already out for our model ?

Sony Z3 D6653 Lollipop
No not yet .. manually installing the D6603 lollipop on D6653 via flashtools will work, only screw up is LTE wont work ... rest is fine. Camera quality has gone down though from 4.4.4 . Even volume is lower . I know because I have done it and now repenting. Stick to 4.4.4 till all this problems are solved.
I installed four days ago D6603 lollipop on D6653 via flashtools and I have no problem with the LTE network. Today I installed the D6603 German firmware and I'm very pleased with it.

What about lock screen carrier name ? Most of the times it was like "No Service" but everything works inside.. Did you notice?
What about after German firmware update? What is the exact firmware name please?
Any improvement in sound volume?????????
:crying:
The firmware that I have installed it is 1288-5031 R5C and the sound volume is the same as Baltic version, but the issue with "No Service" disappeared. Sony music unlimited app does not work (in Romania). Battery life is better than in baltic firmware, at least to me. Overall I'm very completely satisfied.
Thanks. So volume will not change
Let's try a German firmware

Maybe it's a stupid question. I'm from Italy and I want to install the last update. I have found various builds: Norwich, baltic etc etc. What are the Differences?

They are usually very minor, such as additional pre-installed apps on Operator specific builds (Vodafone, Orange, T-Mobile...) that are rarely useful, plus some European builds have 4G instead of LTE or the other way around (no difference in functionality, just two different names for the same thing). However, you can still go with the Customized Italy option, I see that the latest 5.1.1 build is already available for it in XperiFirm.
Hi,
I'm using the ue version of xiaomi but I don't like because I'm having problems with some apps and I'm gonna try with official version but I don't howni can do it.
I have installed the last twrp. Can I download the official rom and just install it?
Thank you
Enviado desde mi Mi-4c mediante Tapatalk
Hello,
you can try and flash china stable rom from xiaomi, but you will likely have same issues...
If you flash official china dev rom with twrp you will lock your bootloader and probably you will end in a bootloop...
Xiaomi rom aren't so much customized, they remove the bloatware and optimize some thing, if you have problems you will have with any other Miui rom...
Which apps don't work on your phone? What version of the system you currently have?
I had installed a rom from EU to get Spanish and the play store. This Rom don't works very well with the keyboard and sometimes the apps just close them.
Yesterday finally I installed the stable version of miui and works perfect in the phone. Just I'm having a problem with the icons of the apps because they don't look very nice.
I'm gonna try to have a look why this happens with the icons. Maybe it's for the play store that I installed.
Which version do you have?

I'm on sMiui 6.1.28 and it works very well, but i'm using english language, so i dont have translation issues...
Miui have a whole set of different icons for popular apps, many of your apps will look differently...

Yes, I had the same version. It works fine but sometimes I was having problems with the apps. After I tried the official Chinese rom I can say that works better.
About the icons I have tried to install some themes but I don't know why the play store icon or WhatsApp looks horrible! I would like the same icons than the EU version.
I will investigate more about this!

The guys at Xiaomi.eu make their own icons, that's why they look different. You won't get the same icons with the official China ROM. I hope you're not flashing China ROMs with TWRP. You're just asking for a bootloop eventually.

Thank you!! I didn't know why the icons were different!
I had the Chinese ROM (stable) but I came back to EU and after the installation I did a wipe and now the phone works fine. We will see how works along the week!

Customised updates from specific providers have no ETA. It all depends on the actual provider you have to add what they want to the firmware. You can always get in touch with them but I have never known anyone getting a firm answer about the ETAs of updates. Best just to wait.
If you cannot wait, flash a 6.0 FTF from a region that has it and just update OTA. You can always flash the one from EE UK once it is released.
Is the standard 7 available ota in the UK now?

You can always use pccompanion or xperia companion to force an update.
have you cleared the cache and data in the whats new app on the phone?
Managed to learn from O2 UK that they have approved and released Nougat already, and its up to Sony now to release it to them phones.
Hmm, common Sony!
Still can't see anything

That you using EE sim doesn't mean you have EE rom. I sign my EE contract in Carphone Warehouse and my XZ is Customized UK witch doesn't have update yet. You need to check witch customization you have.

Goto the phone and dial *#*#service#*#*
then goto service info/software info and then look at Customization version: (5th one down)
The first 8 numbers will be a code telling you which 'version' you have.
Mine is 1305-6105_R3B which equates to '3 UK'
Yours will tell you which customization you have.
you can use xperiafirm to check which it belongs to. If you cant find it, post it here and I will tell you
Damnit I'm on custom UK.

Flash to whichever one you want, it makes no difference. Different regions and providers may add certain apps or features, that's it.

Hey, I have a Galaxy S7 SM-G930F. I live in Portugal and a few months ago I rooted and then tried to unroot it but it went wrong and it got softbricked so i had to install a new rom from sammobile, but I installed a rom for my device and country but a random carrier and I still dont have the Android Nougat (my friend has one aswell and it has already updated).
Because my friend already has the update he sent me his rom and i installed it but it shows me the old rom model when i check for updates manually. In odin I only uploaded the AP file, do I need to upload the rest?
Btw how hard is it to hardbrick my s7 and how much to repair it?
Cheers!
Edit:
What does the smart switch icon means on the rom page and the diffrent letters after the name of my carrier like "TCL" "TPH" etc
Yes, flash all 4 firmware parts, CP, BL, AP and CSC
