Hi, i m using Z1 (C6903) for more than 2 years and recently after updating my phone to 14.6.A.1.236 (OTA) i see mobile battery drains so fast and tried reinstalling same version by downloading from XperiFirm and flashed but still by battery drains so fast not even 5 hrs. Is it a bug in this version ? and my keyboard (Xperia chinese keyboard) stopped responding and phone restarted and from that time Learn words and quick fixes (Text input settings) not working. Tried to uninstall keyboard update and rolled back but still the same problem tried to clear App data but didnt work out. How to fix all these problems. Tell me the solution ASAP as i m not able to use my phone as battery drains faster and not able to text easily.
I'm running that version on my unrooted Z1 with no such problems.
Make a backup of anything you want keeping, then try a factory reset, or do a full wipe and reflash the firmware.
I replaced the battery on my Z1 after 18 months or so as it was going bad.

I've posted this in one of Mirek's threads and it's been lost in conversation. Hopefully someone has some ideas.

My guess is its Mirek's ROM, but I can't conclusively confirm. I've tried flashing his 4.4, but touch doesn't work and his fix doesn't either. What I DO know is that no such thing occurs when I'm in Windows. In Android, the screen/reboot issue happens randomly. Sometimes it can go hours without an incident, sometimes every 10-15 minutes. So it can't necessarily be a hardware problem, right? Then again, it might be that Windows is using the GPU properly, while this version of Android is messing with it.
All said, this is getting rather annoying.
Thanks in advance!
same problem here, whenever I'm playing wordfeud. I got mirek rom 7.Extremely annoying, has anyone a fix for this?
After testing nearly the whole versions of Mirek's roms including lollipop and kitkat , I found that the best stable and performing rom is the stock kitkat rom and you can root it to remove the bloatware out of it and you'll have battery free bug and the other related complications .

Will updating to the newest firmware via my phone and not through flash tool mess anything on my device up? It's rooted, so will anything get bricked/wiped if I just let the phone update itself?
Edit: My E6553 is also the second latest kernel version, 32.1.A.1.185
I attach a bottle of ice to back of it whenever I play.
Dear XDA-developers,
Today I spend numerous hours in trying to root my xperia z3 compact.
I currently have MM 6.0.1 D5803 installed on it with 23.5.A.0.575 the netherlands T-Mobile version. I have tried the following: Kingroot, iroot, kingoroot etc but it is all not working. I also used adroid sdk and changed the fastboot driver. I am able to fast boot etc.
Could anybody help me out with rooting this device? Love to hear from you guys.
Kay
It is described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343/page149
Basically you must downgrade to kitkat, run the rooting script and install recovery, and then install a prerooted marshmallow rom.
Similar issue in Switzerland

Hi, I actually have the same problem rooting my new Z3C in Switzerland. I know that I have to downgrade but when I flash the rom it just boot in the welcome page and the it crashes and go in bootloop.
I've tried with both:
"D5803_23.0.1.A.5.77 Android 4.4.4_Customized CE1 1288-7915.ftf"
"D5803_23.4.A.0.546 Android 5.1.1_Customized CH 1288-9528.ftf" (I know that is not the KK but I just wanted to try if it works, but no success at all even flashing a lollipop from CH)
Any ideas guys?

You need to follow this guide here
To answer your question you need build 23.0.A.2.93 or older, to be able to use griefroot

Thank you for you answer. I've actually just tried with this but I get stuck in the welcome screen and then it simply continues to reboots.
I've installed this: D5803_23.0.A.2.93_Generic GLOBAL.ftf
After having a look to the firmware that I had on the phone (original and working was the 6.0.1 GLOBAL version).
All my previous phone was rooted and now I feel like in prison without a rooted xperia! ahahah

Then you are doing something wrong with flashtool, I used that build yesterday, then used geifroot and dual recovery, before flashing Slim 2.
you need to tick all of the wipe boxes, and none of the exlcude, or it won't work. You can't keep your data flashing to a different firmware.

Ohhh nice, it was not mentioned that you have to check all the tick boxes! Thank you so much!

I think it would be better to emphasize this in the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343
I'm downloading the rom, what would you suggest me if I do really care about the battery life? Maybe the lollipop instead of Marsh-mellow because of the presence of Stamina mode in lollipop?
I guess I will just try to find the best...

There are only two good builds for the Z3c at the moment.
The Slim 5 which is lollipop
or the Slim 2 MM. I was sceptical about MM battery life and held back 5.1 for a long time, but now the latest roms is out, the doze function works as well or better than stamina mode. I am getting 4 days between charges now, something I could never do before

Thank you for your answer. Really useful! I've finally managed to room and install that I wanted!
If you have such permission, I would suggest to edit the guide in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/how-to-root-backup-drm-keys-t3013343
by adding the following:
7. Just select the name of the fw you downloaded and click on "Flash". Note: select both wipes in case you are coming from different android version.
43. Open Flashtool and select the non-pre-rooted fw (this is 23.1.A.0.690), but DESELECT system: in "EXCLUDE" make sure you check the checkbox next to "SYSTEM", flash it.
I will put this comment on the relative guide too!
I don't want to abuse of you kindness but I am currently searching for some CPU+GPU clock and voltage changer. Is there any efficient application that you can suggest me?
Hi! I am starting this discussion / poll in the hope that people will think twice before upgrading (unofficially) to Nougat. So far, what I see is 3 outcomes: 1) Device gets bricked 2) Unofficial Nougat has major bugs and people decide to downgrade back to Marshmallow 3) Upgrade is successful and user is pleased. I think that the latter scenario is actually quite rare and I feel for inexperienced people who brick their device. My question, before you try to upgrade unofficially: is it worth it?
People who brick their device doesn't follow the steps as there are written.
for example t hey flash the b370 version without the additional package and they reply 'bluetooth isnt working'
i encourage people upgrading to nougat because of the new ui, the better battery/ram management and the appearance of drawer
i rollbacked too many times to marshmallow, upgraded to nougat without any problem or brick, just follow the steps and the installation is successful.

I have two p9 lites,and they are both running on b370,updated trough hicare (1.99gb),and it works perfectly.Battery life,camera,bluetooth,everthing works amazingly compared to older nougat betas.
L-31 P9, Battery life is much better used to get only 4 hours on screen time watching videos now i get 6 with 25% left so easily 7 (my screen is always at 60% brightness) I'm not rooted because i didn't flash it after but i will root soon using a PC (I'm new to rooting (came from IPhone) yet i can easily do it probably because I'm a very techy person) anyway it seems faster my camera and everything works fine i used to get 1.8gb 4am max now i get 2.2 (with no apps running) also split screen works very well and is not laggy at all, one complain i have is the live wallpaper i used for some reason stoped working after i updated (black hole stock love wallpaper) i went into settings to re apply it as it's happened once before on MM but i said there was no wallpapers at all not even still ones, if someone could give me a link to the live wallpaper I'd really appreciate that but other than that no complaints at all it's much better than MM it even has a F.LUX like function built in to reduce blue light levels to help late at night so you're not wide awake , the pull down menu has Many and i mean Many more functions not just 5-10 there's probably 20+ and you can have more than 5 at one time, notifications are good and work well, everything seems overly big to me but thats probably because i used to have my phone on a 300 DPI before de-rooting and updating, like i was saying it has almost no drawbacks it's very polished If you install it correctly (one package before the other and it only takes 20 mins max and you data is not deleted i used tarp not the one from this forum but it works the same i got logged out of apps and that's all that's happend when i updated)

I agree 100%.
Upgrade to newer version of OS, official or unofficial, is one of the best thing of Android. But people need to be careful with their device, if it's not an OTA update obviously there are some steps to follow.. every device is different and just flashing whatever without attention may cause problem. Reading the steps to follow takes only 1 minute.
I'm on B132, is there a quick way to upgrade to B370? I've tried hi-care app but says no updates
Thanks

I take your points but looking at the answers and questions forum again today, I still think the number of people bricking or downgrading is quite high. I love Nougat too, but I am warning newbies that it might be worth waiting for an official update or if not, concentrating on what you're doing. My penny's worth...

I updated to B370 but had to downgrade to mm because my camera wasn't working, but overall it was a great experience. Can't wait to get an update where my camera works.

I see a lot of people have camera issue on l31 but for l21 everything seems to be OK. I have B370 on my l21 and I don't even think about rolling back to MM. Newest firmware is (at least in my opinion) stable and for now it runs flawlessly

I think that you must be bootloader unlock and rooted to use TWRP method . Too complicated for me :/
I have L21C900B170 after the fifth or sixth failure to go to 370 .
Whatever I try through Firmware Finder or HiSuite it keeps downloading the 1,24GB file and not the 1,99 Gb upgrade so I always and up with ND90 test key .
Something is blocking it but no one knows what

It's really not all that difficult and there are several guides around here. Unlocking the bootloader and rooting MM is pretty much without risks. I'd say go for it.

Well I did an upgrade and although at first I thought I 'borked it' - the build I have is 'NRD90M test-keys'
But I have to say after manually installing google keyboard and getting a few play store updates installed, it feels like an absolute rocket compared to the old EE B132 version
