51.1.A.4.265 Update - Sony Xperia XZ2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Changelog:
- July security patch.
- Screen unresponiveness issue was fixed for many users.
- Camera app crashing issue seems to be fixed.

Where to read changelog/update info?
Same here though I never know what is patched or upgraded. Also, been using the XZ2 for about 2 months now...having major issues with signal quality where I had other phones not having this issue in same places. Any feedback?
Thank you.

The touch issue got fixed.

Yeah, the touch issue seems to be fixed for many users.
@Neonatus: I'm sorry but I don't have any issues with signal. Have you tried to replace the phone?

Double post.

The A/B thingy is actually quite Handy for monthly security patches. Now if the could just reduce the boot time by a few seconds....

I don't know.
I restart the phone, fill my glas with water, drink it and the phone is booted.
Seems fast for me.

I don't have that issue. I've updated my XZ2 to 51.1.A.4.265 and the signal strength looks just as it was before - I can't find any difference.

Getting terrible signal, as before. 4G generally seems slow and I only get 1-3 bars of signal at best, sometimes less and it's even worse if there are any number of tall buildings around. The XZ2 has had signal issues since I've bought it.

If the factory reset and the repair mode of the xperia companion app doesn't work:
Try to install via xperifirm a system image from your provider in your country (Will factory reset your phone, maybe you can backup your data via xperia companion)
Or send it to the sony repair center.

If i install de DP of Android P, the apps of Sony get deleted?

Just wondering, is your XZ2 screen having touch accuracy issue after the .265 patch?
I noticed my Rev 2 sensitivity issue is fixed but I am making a lot more typo and have to depend on autocorrection.

In battery save mode, this problem was worse.

[REQUEST] Touch screen calibration

Hi,
Just wondering if any devs will come across this thread since I was hoping that they can make somehow a touch screen calibration app for the z1 since it really has touch issues. You may refer to the thread found in the sony forums and youtube to see how worse is the issue.
Touch screen fails to recognize touches and its really annoying that it affects the daily use and you cant use your phone when gaming..
I really hope someone kind will help me out as this will also be a great help to other people who have the same exact problem.
Many thanks.

Is there a difference between your flashable zip and the one here in the forums? my model is c6903 LTE. will it affect my phone since I'm using what's designated in my country. Or if that did not solve the issue can I use SUS to revert back to my original firmware?
EDIT ADD: so you do have before the touch issue when using the phone during games and when its flat on a surface in which the phone stops registering touches?

I just merged 259's system in flashable .257 zip.
You can uncheck all "Wipe:" and uncheck Kernel only and check all others in "Exclude:" to prevent overwriting your system or baseband.
I'm using C6903 UK LTE, I flashed my zip and kernel only and I can still use LTE on .259 with no problem.
Yes, you can always use SUS or Flashtool to reverting back.
My issue was during games.

Thanks for the detailed explanation mate, I'll send a pm also to you later. I'll try what you have said by the time I got home. I hope it works. For the mean time, may I ask a favor? can you please try placing your z1 on a flat surface and try running the service test to see if the problem is really solved since the issue is very hard to replicate. Several tries/attempts are needed.
First try placing your phone on top of a paper, then on a pillow and last is on a flat table.
Sorry to trouble you but you really got my hopes up for my ****ty z1.

Thanks mate, been waiting for your reply as I'm refreshing the page once in a while. Have you tried continuous lines or scribble since that triggers the problem when you're using the screen continuously without lifting your finger.
Sorry if I'm really bothering you but I really just have to confirm and once this fixed the problem, I can share your tip to the guys at the sony forum so that they will be freed from the touch screen curse. I really appreciate your help and effort.

Thanks dude, I've been trying to replicate the issue by swirling and swirling until the line is broken. I'm itching now to try to flash what you have told me and I hope it works.
Thank you very much for your time and effort. oh By the way, before you flash the .259 is the problem extreme or very persistent?

Yep, that's my main gripe with the touch issue as it loses touch and returns again. I'll try what you have told me at home then if it works or not I'll get back to you.
I'll be holding on to what you have said that the touch problem is not there anymore since you flashed .259 :good:
users on .259 reported that their touchscreen issue was not solved even after updating to .259
Really sucks since my problem gets from worse to worse day by day

So your saying that flashing the 259 kernel alone would be enough to eradicate the touch screen issue? Don't really want to flash another rom but it is annoying.

From Customer Support at service center, we had an email conversation. if this is the case then why did Sony not include this in the update?

If you get it then put it out here, let the community benefit.
As for customer support, i emailed them about the bootloader issue with people who have a status of No and the response was just like i was speaking with a robot, i asked is there a way around it and that the previous response was neither helpful nor educational and I got another of the same responses, i've sent a third email asking if they just copy and paste an email from a list and if I don't get a human response with at least a glimmer of hope then i'll be boycotting Sony for life and i'll make sure everyone knows how poor their services are.
I've never asked them a question in my life, I did mention that and this is the response I get, lol forget that, I've learnt a few lessons from getting this phone, first one being never buy a sony again and second, always check if the bootloader is unlockable and not locked because of a networks request.

[Q] Display issue?

Hello all,
In the morning, i bought my Xperia M2.
But i think, my display have an issue.

It's not a software issue, but I'm confused Some people have this and some not.
Should i bring to Service?
Nope... Not all of M2s have this... Mine doesn't and like SMikeS said, on the reviews you find on Youtube, a lot of them don't have it....
A few of them came with this screen problem, where the internal light goes over the edge of the screen and reflects on the glass...
You can try to change the device, but as far as I know, it doesn't affect in any way the usability... And I'm not sure they will change it since it's not an actual problem, it just looks weird...

Don's say this. Older and cheaper devices (Like Miro-Tipo) doesn't have this
have you tried bend test on the phone ^^ the glue might have come loose a bit but as long is not causing a problem dont mind it

Not really noticed that on my own but then I also have the brightness turned more or less right down.

Also,to answer your question,no,it is not normal for that drain to happen that much.Consider moving to another rom if that drain increases.

Hi again.
I downloaded another app. While the notification cell symbol look "empty" (at times), both apps report Good Signal (at around 88 db).
So I am inclined to believe it's the status bar symbol/ icon which is off.
You still don't agree?
Very curious about this.

Why do you think I hate Cos? Lmao,I was using cos12.1+xperia ui a few days ago.
As per about the cellular signal,you might be using an outdated cos12.1,not the last stable one.When I migrated to Cos12.1(last stable version),I didn't had any kind of issues like you're facing with cos12.1.So,it is unlikely that it is a bug.Anyhow,I'll recommend you to use LineageOs,as it is updated regularly.

I got my s9+ ask away

If you have any questions let me know. I'm gonalna run all benchmarks as soon as it finishes updating

Yep I was on same boat I only changed because I dont like keeping my phones more than a year. The raw power is there, phone is very smooth and responsive no red tint as in s8. Netflix HDR is enabled as well. Only problem is the web rendering benchmarks etc in running a gfx benchmark.i think a software update can fix this anyway

Thanks, i will search i little bit more.

I have a problem with my pixel touch :(

Guys, I have a problem with my pixel touch
it is not accepting more than one touch, it becomes impossible to type. I don't know what happened, cell phone never fell, I always took good care of it. And cell phone is still new, not even two months old.
Help me, what can I do?
I've re-installed the original rom, it seems to be a
problem in the hardware itself. I'm very upset and sad
Back to android 10 your problem will be solved.There are many people having the same problem as you.
update: I removed the film and the ringing is back to normal. I don't understand, this never happened to me.
I was using a hydrogel film. When I change the film, the touch works, but after a few hours it stops again. I've already tested it with more than 5 films. I've already put on glass film too, the same thing happened.
I really don't know what's going on. I don't like using the cell phone without film

hello friend, do you have any other solution for this? it's very frustrating to get stuck on android 10.
today I already put the lineageOs to see if it would solve it, and it didn't do any good. So I put the android beta 12, and it didn't work either. How frustrating.
Can you tell me if this is a hardware or software issue?
My phone has the same problem as yours. I haven't found a fix yet except reverting back to android 10

hello friend.
Have you already tested if the problem is solved with a kernel?
I haven't done this test yet

It was an idea that popped into my head a few days ago, but recently my phone needs constant use so I can't test it.

Hello Friend. Tests the 3 kernels. Two were clean flashes and one dirty. None worked. It continued to give error in the touch.
I went to stock of the month February 2021 , April 2021 and October 2021 to see if it worked, and it didn't solve anything.I also tested the October 2020 build (android 11). It seems to be working fine, but when I went through a kernel it bootloops. Apparently it wasn't compatible.
So I'm going back to android 10. It's too tiring to waste time with this

Thanks for your respond. It's really bad to get this information, I think android 12 version doesn't solve this problem either.
