Your System Apps use high amount of RAM and they even clear user apps memory to do so. This is called memory leak.
You can i guess, since you have used Xposed, I would say flash any pre rooted 5.1 Zip

You'll have to uninstall your root apps, then flash under ODIN the official stock firmware, download from here
I first deactivate my modules under Xposed framework, then uninstall them, then I defrost all apps in TiBU, then I use the prepare for full unroot in SuperSU and then I uninstall the root apps. Finally I do a full wipe of SD (back your stuff up of course) and reset the phone, then I turn it off and flash the stock fw.

Try turning it off and back on, do another full reset, repeat and then flash stock fw once again...
I managed to successfully update to KK from having rooted my SGS4A SGH-i537 JB 4.3 with Sunderwear's method, flashing with ODIN 3.09 back to stock from the official FW here, downloaded from here [I537UCUBML2 (includes all files).7z]

Yeah I left my sim card in, wiped my SD card with the reset etc. Now, did you do the uninstall "prepare for full unroot" option in SuperSU, generally doing what I did to double cover myself? I'm thinking, though this may be a tedious way of doing it but make sure you're all reset to stock as you may be, then do a full reset including the formatting the SD card, then do a re-root, then unroot as I do and try that.

Yes, you are good to go. Flash .136 FW and wipe Data, Appslog and Cache. It is recommended to do that, if you will try to keep your data you can face many problems, just wipe everything and you will be fine.

[Q] Videos dont' work anymore

Hi, I noticed that the video playback doesn't always work. For example if I try to play Facebook videos I get an error, same with YouTube. Sometimes even the video recording doesn't work! I tried to wipe System/Data/Cache/Internal Storage and re-install the firmware.
I'm now on 23.1.A.1.28 debloated by @moly82 .
I've Unlocked Bootloader.
Can someone help me? Thank you.
I got the exact same problem video´s stop working when i try to open them even in album/films and even youtube so anoying
help would be appreciated

The new Video Update is kind of buggy atm, you can always downgrade by downloading the APK online and assuming you guys have Root access you can push it to system/priv-app/ and give rw-r-r permissions. Or you could uninstall the update in Settings>Apps therefore restoring the App to its factory version
New update doesn't change anything but name so downgrading won't hurt unless you prefer the name "Video" instead of "Movies"
I have the exact same problem gifs on relay for reddit also stop playing, a reboot fixes it temporarily but it always comes back, would love to know a permenant solution. Latest rooted stock.

Thank you for the answer! I've installed a debloated version of the firmware. So I can't see Video app listed in the menu. Which is the exact name I should see in Setting->Apps?
Did this work and if so, what version did you use? Thanks.

I tried to push a couple of old versions to the system but after a couple of hours or a day later the problem came back. Does anyone have an idea what the culprit could be. Kernel maybe? Tried flashing other roms to no avail. Now I'm on 5.1.1 stock slim version. I have an unlocked bootloader btw without drm keys. (which I lost because i'm the stupid noob who didn't check his backup...)Anyone ideas?

As far as is know the problem started with the stock kernel. I then flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/development/d5803-23-2-1-62-slim-t3127115 and the Advanced kernel. Anyway, i will flash the stock kernel just to be sure. If that doesn't change anything can i try to restore it with Sony Companion and start over?

I would recommend that, but if it doesn't fix your issue I'm not sure what else can be done.

I figured that much.. It's a weird problem. It got me thinking it maybe hardware related. I will try the kernel end the restore and if it doesn't work i just have to live with it. Thank you very much for the help.
Sorry to revive this older thread, but did you find a solution to the issue? I am experiencing the very same problem on my Z2 phone with stock ROM + unlocked bootloader and root. I was suspecting a HW issue (maybe combined with unlocked BL), but there were few other users with same issue. I am going to place an order for Z3 compact and would hate to face the annoying "camera not available" or "video can't be played" messages again.

I am sure about flashing C5503 rom on C5502 device because i am using it myself.
To flash custom recovery bootloader should be unlocked as far as i know but this is an official rom so i dont know. It may work without unlocking. (You dont recieve official OTA updates with unlocked bootloader thats the only harm, if you end up unlocking remember to backup TA files)
If you are on stock you can try flashing it without wiping internal memory but it is recommended to wipe it as not wiping may end up with problems like some apps not working.
Good Luck! :good:
PS- I am also a newb, you can search again and verify this information though i think it os correct.

Yes move to SD is available in Lollipop ROM
4.3 has been very stable for me, and I've been using it for the longest time, unwilling to update to KK even. However, now, I'm thinking of updating to 5.1.1, but I keep hearing a voice in my head saying "if it ain't broke..." It's just that the lure of moving apps to SD is strong, especially since the ZR only has around 4.5GB of usable space. I'm also unwilling to lose my progress in some of my games, so I'd like to update but I don't want to wipe/reset to factory default. Which means the update might make my phone unstable and laggy. I'm just so torn about this.

A carefully planned upgrade with app data backup should be hassle free.
I've now updated to 5.1.1 (without wiping my data) and everything went through without a hitch! I'm liking it so far . Sadly, it looks like this is the last update for my beloved ZR, as it probably won't get Marshmallow anymore.

Adoptable Storage - MM

I have tried to use the adb hack to enable adoptable storage using stock Marshmallow 6.0.1 that was released for G800H ZTO but it didn't work, while it does for S6 and S5.
If anyone got it working for stock ROM, please share the procedure here, specifying the phone model, ROM and steps.
Thanks!
