Does the Xperia M2 support Google Assistant? - Sony Xperia M2

The requirements of Google Assistant include Lollipop which the M2 has but also a HD screen which I believe it lacks, this means it does not officially have Google Assistant? Could someone confirm (I don't own the device).

nope it dont have google assistant
i have to xperia m2 aqua and even with lineage 14.1 it dont have the assistant

[Q] Which functions are lost if you unlock the Bootloader?

Hi everyone..
I've read in other Sony devices forums that when you unlock the bootloader, you may loose the DRM keys, and by consecuence, you will also loose some sony propietary Algorithms, like Xloud, CLearAudio+, etc.
For those who have already unlocked it, have you experienced any issue with Music info downloader/Xloud/ClearAudio+, or even the camera got worse?
Thanks

No Sony PC Companion anymore. Walkman can be obtained via Play Store, Bravia engine is not available on the M2 (and is mostly a marketing burb anyway), the rest is rumour of esoteric nature.
Hello, what about the camera effects - motiongraph, AR, filter etc? Do they still work?

Android 5.0 Lollipop for Xperia M2

Hello guys. Do you know if Android 5.0 will be released Lollipop for our device?
It won't.
lozohcum said:
I won't.

Why wouldn't it?
I don't know if Android 5.0 Lollipop is going out for our Xperia M2, but, as far I know, there's a limit to a 18 months for develop a new Android Operative System, so, it'll be slow, but, I'm sure that it'll be Android 5.0 (It isn't a bad device, it has great specs, not like a Xperia Z2, but still, it's the same as Moto G and its device is going to get Android 5.0 (Clean AOSP, but, either way, there's no possibilities for no Android 5.0)).
I'd say it will be. the M2 is a 2014 device, pretty recent, plus qualcomm should be updating binaries for the M2 (it has the same chipset as the Moto G with LTE which IS getting the upgrade)

No forget that Moto G has clean AOSP so, it's natural for them get the updates too much soon than us xD. Moto G users doesn't even need to wait too much. We must wait for Sony "develop" the new UI and also other things based on compatibility, which takes more time and can even deny the deveolpment for Xperia M2.
But, either way, I think is coming, there's no much difference between other phones that it has Android Lollipop updates
probably cyanogenmod will be the fastest way to get 5.0
m2 will not be getting the L update
just had this from sony themselves so its official the m2 will not be getting the update cant say as im happy think ill be unlocking bootloader and rooting now stuff the warranty....

Dear Adrian,
Thank you for contacting the Sony Xperia support centre, regarding the latest version of Android coming to the Xperia M2.
As of right now we currently have no plans to release the Android L update outside of the Z series of handsets. Sorry for the inconvenience.
For the latest news, information and product support please visit
If you require any further assistance then please do not hesitate to contact us again. Please use the below link for all our contact information.
Please be aware that should you not respond within 5 days of this email your query will be automatically closed. Any further communications will not reach our support and a new query will need to be raised.
Nonsense.... This is the only thing I'm gonna say to Sony after reading that message. They're just trying force us to buy a Xperia Z series, just to get Android 5.0?
That's just the first list. Wait!!

The guy of the Sony chat responded to me (in Dutch) he thinks Android L will be released for our phone! He's not sure, but he supposes so.
Well good news ^^
According to this:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/andro...dule-samsung-htc-sony-motorola-manufacturers/
Sony xperia m2 will get update to 5.0 by March-April 2015
i wish april 2015 would come like yesterday man, android L is the best!
dont believe a word of that list as it also says that the m and sp will get it they wont even get kitkat. i asked sony themselves and they quite clearly stated only the z series will get it

This information is false and misleading. Author says only that he hope to see android update on non-Z devices. Learn to read.
This is official Sony statement http://blogs.sonymobile.com/2014/10...d-5-0-lollipop-to-the-entire-xperia-z-series/
Don't spam anymore.
maybe they would surprise. because same chipset as Moto G, 2014 phone, and got 1GB RAM. not much reason why not update to Lollipop. however, its Sony's final decision to allocate for the development of this, or simply just say cannot and you guys just upgrade to Z series.
Why would yous need official lollipop lads? If I could, I would make custom lollipop and I would depend on them, but I'm not that good with developing for android yet :/

And that is most likely the reason why people want the official lollipop. They are not experienced developers including myself and who knows if and when an unofficial custom ROM arrives... And an official release actually speeds up the development of custom Roms especially with released sources.

this phone is just released this phone must get lollypop update. that is why i bought this phone.
this phone has z3 looks so if z3 getting lollypop this will also get. but problem is we are not running 4.4.4 so that mean it is a bit difficult to tell next update will be 4.4.3 or 5.0.

Really, but what makes me sick about Sony is the very bad support!
I got a time ago a Xperia L and it was updated only of 4.1 to 4.2.2, fortunately i got non-official 4.4
My last Sony was a Xperia M and same thing happened, XM stuck on 4.3, iven it's launch was in time to get official kitkat update from Sony.
Now i'm with my XE3 waiting for the Lollipop update, maybe Sony disappoint me again?
Android 5.0 (Lollipop) is the most agressive change on the android plataform, the new runtime ART give us a lot of free RAM and battery life. I want it!

If Sony persists to the same tactics as before then their market share will drop further since there are a lot of people who buy their midrange phones.

we know the 'bad-support' of sony on updating, but I think the E3 should have got at least 1 major update, such as previous device. just take last year low end as example, such as E1 which jumped from 4.3 to 4.4 or M from 4.1/4.2 to 4.3. So the good may be we'll have 5.0 update, yet the worst we only have 4.4.4 update. But unofficial update surely will come, as S400 is really popular.

This device is in supported devices list of lollypop and even sony knows that and after aosp is released making lollypop update is become easier for sony and this device is famous for it,s z3 look and without lollypop it won,t look alike z3. They have to update it.

I guess every DLNA phone has same functions... If your phone supports DLNA, then download the compatible app... Miracast or some other mirroring app....
Miracrast dont want, can you give me name for other app.
