I'd like to ask
does anyone on this forum ever trying to flashing Xperia XZs firmware on XZ?
is it can be true?
if its failed, what gonna happen to the phone?
hope you guys can answer it
thank you
Even Dual SIM version do not work properly, XZs firmware won't work at all. They seem like same phones, but their RAM capacity, camera (and probably eMMC/UFS) are different. So, if you wanna make your phone brick do it

In best case you have a single sim phone, in worst case you will brick your phone!
I don't know exactly what will happen, but i would say: don't try this! I think you will brick your phone!
Two threads asking the same thing within what, two days?

this thread doesn't answer me very well ... it's talking about stock roms ..
D2303 & D2302 have different CPU chipset so i can't install the stock of D2303 on my D2302
i am talking and asking specially about the custom roms and the mods
like CM .. can i flash the CM11 of D2305 on my D2302 ??? ( D2305 has the same cpu chipset & also i don't need the 2 sim cards i only use one )
You can try and softbrick your phone if you want to, I'm pretty sure the bootloader, unlocked or not, has some sort of compatibility checking and if you flash the wrong version you will see the same thing as posted in that thread. Feel free to prove me wrong though.
Hello there!
I have bad news... As you saw in the title, there won't be any official release of Lollipop for any NON-Xperia Z range smartphone, like M2, M2 Aqua, E1, E3, T2, T3, C3, etc...
Here the proofs:
And this is happening while the Moto G is updating to Lollipop officially via OTA.. Good job Sony, you did it again! :good:
If the confirmation isn't revoked. Mmm, they're pushing us to buy Xperia M4 Aqua instead or a Z series. Which isn't an option for everyone. This is bull****.
Either way, the work which galaxyfreak, erickas and FXP are doing is amazing. They aren't leaving us without any hope xD. Thanks to them :3.

Yeah, that's absolutely right, but a rom without camera or with random reboots it's not stable for daily use rom... That's why I went back to stock, I couldn't use the phone normally with that..
Hope they can find a solution for them soon... That would give our Xperia M2 a new life.. A new start...

Totally right. But, the progress they've made is fairly enough. Camera is a pain in the ass, we all know that, but, still, the development makes some good progresses. So, still waiting. In some point they'll make it.
Sorry for asking!
Can you provide link where you found it?
They force us to buy much expensive Xperia Z series phones because of lollipop!!!!!
Screw you Sony
But I still have a hope, because M4 have lollipop(M4 does not belongs into Z series)
I also I hope for FXP team, ericas and galaxyfreak for Stable release... Keep the good work up (Y)
I would like to help them, but lack of skills and knowledge I can only hope
Maybe CM team take it their offical list...I hope!
And AGAIN!!!! SCREW YOU SONY!!!!

Obviously it's on their twitter. Then again, I knew this was coming, considering they pusged 3 updates for Kitkat. On other notes, erikcas managed to get deep sleep working, so only thing left is camera and FM
Been saying it since they confirmed it in a email almost 5mth ago but no one would have it. I was considering buying a second Sony device and a Sony smart watch to go with my m2. Don't think I'll bother now or if I do may have to consider another brand. also surely there is still 6mths of the 18mth update cycle left to run

Really? C3? xD. Well, in many ways M2 catch C3's up, so, might be a great hope for some of us. But, everything is so ridiculous at the same time -w-.

Check in the screenshots that the kernel is from Dec 2014... IMO, that was actually a test to see how lollipop performed in mid-range phone. Maybe the experiment went wrong and that's why they are now telling via twitter there won't be lollipop for us... That's what I understand from this situation..
Edit: Also, still no new firmware certidied for Xperia C3..

It's only about the money they would have to pay programmers to prepare Lollipop update for mid-range devices.

Yep, they only take care of the Z series users.. Even though the original Z is now more than 2 years old, and the M2 less than one..

Screw FM, if they fix Camera, almost all people switch to custom ROM.

True, that's why ppl with Xperia SP scream in agony when they heard M2 is getting Kitkat, not SP
I've heard that french local authority can pursue a company who are setting voluntary a planned obsolescence, so why not using that against sony?
Sony did stopped the update, so that obsolescence, since Lollipop is here....
thats for cases when the company includes something in the device which stops it from operating. a phone with an old android version is still a working phone
Well, i think this news will make you happier guys!

This does not solve the lack of official Lollipop release for M2

Fixed that for you. High end Sony phones is still supported
Hey there,
I own a Sony Xperia Z3 D6653 (1288-4394 variant), and it looks like Sony forgot to release the 23.5.A.1.291 firmware update for this variant, which is kind of a bummer since they don't answer my emails.
My phone isn't rooted, and I was wondering if there's a way I can update my firmware without wiping my phone clean.
Thanks!
I own a D6605 with that firmware through OTA update.
Have you searched/selected the correct model at the Sony Support site?
I would recommend to look for it, and maybe specify my model number, and download it yourself.
At the supportsite theres also a tool which has to option to install this update (flash) without wiping your phone. Search this forum for details, as i'm writing this down from memory. They used this method on Z(1) and Z2 before.

What's so special about that TW build? Bands?
Any of the other .291 don't match: https://xpericheck.com/device/D6653 ?
Question is, what inside the box for Singapore users? Device is F8332 XZ Dual. I purchased online and found something strange until I questioned about the genuinity of my device.
Mine got earphone MH750 and standard charger UCH20.
Is the SG version really get that straight from the box? Thanks.
Ur not the only one buddy...I got the same ****y earphones like u and same charger as u...earphones are the same since Xperia z3...dont know why Sony made a decision like that ,probably to cut the cost of the phone and so on...it s a shame that firms like Samsung gives u Hi-end earphone while we get a 3 year old earphones on xperias.... THANKS Sony thats all i can say.
Thanks for the information man. So you also got in ear earphone MH750 and standard charger UCH20 right? One more, can you please help me take screenshot of *#*#7378423#*#* then service test then security? My XZ Dual didn't have Marlin Keys and has Factory Data Reset: Masterclearconfirm status. I'm afraid this is not genuinely new device and might complain to the seller.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, I just got this phone SO-01J in docomo version which is installed with Android 7, but I found it not running really smoothly. I wonder if downgrading to 6.0 will be better. And I checked that it's NOT ALLOWED in bootloader unlock. So can I do this ? If so , which firmware I should choose to download?
I found an article shows an valid downgrade with F8331, it uses Xperia Flashtool and Xperia Companion. does this method also apply for SO-01J? If not, what's the proper way of doing so?
Many thanks.
What do you mean by it's not smooth? You're getting lags in gaming? Or the whole os is lagging? If the whole os is lagging then i think you should do a software repair with Xperia Companion... By the way... This phone can be updated to oreo

Thanks for replying! The whole os is quite lagging, even when I'm only running normal apps such as dialing, messages, camera and browser. Sometimes such experience just really annoys me.
And it has many Japanese Apps which are I hardly use and I want to get rid of them. So I'd like to get a downgrade to see if 6.0 would be better.
It wouldn't give a big changes tho....Android 7 shouldn't be lagging on your phone... About the mm firmware... Download flashtool and open xperifirm(something like that) and choose any mm firmware for SO-01J.. And flash it using the flashtoo.. lhttps://www.teamandroid.com/2017/04/11/downgrade-xperia-xz-android-601-marshmallow-firmware/ <---- tutorial about how to flash firmware using FlashTool...
I'm not responsible if you bricked your device while doing this process

Thanks, but it seems that in XperiFirm for SO-01J there is only the latest updated firmware available. (39.2.B.0.336) I don't know if I can use other versions' firmwares, such as F8331, F8332 for my SO-01J.
I'm not really sure because I'm not very good in firmwares...But try to give a software repair(software repair from Xperia Companion) a try... Because it shouldn't lag on your phone so something is wrong with your os... Software repair may fix your problem.. By the way.. Is there any option for you to update to oreo on your XZ?
