Customization version? - Sony Xperia 5 II Questions & Answers

Does anyone know how to find the customization for the 5 II? I know that the CDAs have been phased out, but I can't find anything in the service menu that looks like what's on XperiCheck:

Hello! Developer of XperiCheck.com here!
The CDA now seems to be an internal-only number which is used to represent the carrier name on a per-device level. I've formatted it so to have a like-for-like representation in XperiCheck.com and XperiFirm, as many people use the two together.
To correctly identify your particular version, the best you can currently do is manually match the name 'Customized EEA' with the GLOBALEEA-A2 text under the software version text. I'll work on it later this week to get 'GLOBALEEA-A2' or equivalent text on the site too, to make it much more obvious.
Thanks for the feedback!

Hey, thanks for the info! Now it makes me wonder why I'm still on the Aug security patch, as Customized EEA is supposed to be on the Oct patch... anyway, I'm looking forward to the update, you've done a great job with XperiCheck!

Yeah indeed, looks like there should be an update for your phone already out! Does a manual forced update check still say that there are no updates available?

Yep, no updates available on the phone, Xperia Companion says the same thing.

I'm still looking for clarification regarding this as some people still claim that aptx works, look here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80233082&postcount=362
This is on the 9.1 update.
Has it been officially stated that the aptX has been removed?
Huawei Mate 20 X (EVR-L29) - 9.1.0.320 (C432E3R2P1) ...........aptx YES
This their official statement

Well there you have it then, aptX works as i thought, it just isn't showing in the Dev options.
Probably yes , but unfortunately if your headphones connets to another codec by defult , LDAC in my case , it will be pain into ass

Won't let me sign up, despite owning the chinese model. I think that perhaps I have never been able to complete a full real name authentication on account (it needs a Chinese ID card), that I am unable to access this option.
That's my theory.
I mean, I actually want to assist with BETA, but just can't

It's been an ongoing issue since the beta. Samsung was made aware but chose not to fix it.

I reported it once on the first initial one ui 3.0 and then again once I upgraded to ctl7, hopefully it gets fixed, but it doesn't seem like a priority to them. i actually just downgraded to 2.5 cause I hate the bugs they currently have.

Eventually is the time frame. Samsung took over a year to fix the Buds+ firmware. Lol not sure it's optimized even now and niether is Samsung
It probably will get fixed... eventually

Samsung will substitute smaller chipsets and components during a production run if need be. Result is the firmware may not be compatible for those chipsets/components until the glitch is noticed and firmware updated to include them.
Add to that there are many variants of firmware because of different carriers and countries.

New official htc U11 system update (2022) available! Has anyone updated already?

Hello everyone,
yesterday (January 4th 2022) I got a notification that there is a new system update (3.31.401.1) for the U11. The notification states system improvement. The size of the update is 403.64 MB. My current system software revision has the same number as this update (3.31.401.1) and is from 2019.
My mobile is running on stock firmware and is not rooted. I have not updated the phone.
Has anyone besides me got this notification and updated yet?
What will this update affect?
Will this update remove the discontinued preinstalled htc apps?

Wow I haven't been on xda in a minute ...I also came here to say I got the ota today as well. I pulled it and it shows 80 mb on my end. I'm rooted running stock. So I ain't flashing it just yet...I dropped it in my Dropbox if anyone wants to take a look at it. https://www.dropbox.com/s/32dmepvo4...7.617.2_r1-3.37.617.2_release_554614.zip?dl=0
Any idea why there is such a big difference in size of the update?
Mine shows 403.64 MB.
About time!
Somebody is finally talking of this update!
I've been googling since I first received the notification on january 2, but couldn't find any trace of this update on the internet, to the point I was getting very suspicious, especially after reading of the "system update malware" early this year.
I've yet to update my current U11 (and the notification has been pestering me since then) but I did update a second U11 I'm not using anymore due to a faulty sim slot.
Absolutely nothing changed. Still showing the same android version and build.
Mine is 3.37.617.2 IDK why everyone elses is different but here is the update

U.S. Unlocked seem to be the last to get the updates because carriers get priority.

The issue appears to be a custom theme I applied in navstar. Having changed this to a suggested theme, the icons revert to being identifiable.

I've had this on Beta 1, but it was patched with Beta 2 (even with HEX applied)

I don't have the phone to test this update. But Samsung is really doing commendable job with updating so many of its phone lineup to let user taste different flavours of Android.
I know hasty decisions may lead to buggy software but I would say let us give Samsung a chance to improvise the taste of Android.
It's even beating the very maker of Android in delivering software updates.
Soooo... I got the update today... and I must say that this definitely feels better optimized than Android 12, there's still a little lag here and there when playing a game and then switching to something else (multitasking) however this definitely feels better, great job!
How's the ui?lagging?
In the US, no update yet.
Stil laggy?
Might be slightly less laggy but I wiped it after the update. But still not great.
