Yeah hopefully there might be a root exploit in it fingers crossed

Fingers crossed. Might this be Jelly Bean for Z2? I'm new to the Sony ecosystem, but it seems a bit weird for me.

Not sure what you mean. Z2 launched with Jellybean.

Z2 launched officially with KitKat. The version numbers in this new certified firmware went down, so this might be a step backwards.

Sorry. Punctuation fail on my part...
The numbers haven't gone backwards. "1" is higher than "A" as far as I'm aware.
The previous version was 17.1.A.2.55. 17.1.1.A.0.402 is higher

Ach, so nothing interesting to get the root working. That's a pity.
I'm still getting into the numeration

I'd say it's highly unlikely there will be any new exploits.

Could this contain the fix for the dreaded overheating issue that's plaguing this device? I really hope so. The overheating is the only issue that's making me consider another device.

Id say you should return it if you have issues beside extensive 4k recording.
Heavy use untill it died, and i can only make it "overheat" with 4k camera work.
(Edit) Scratch that, just did another run with 1080 and just goto to 10m, now I am actualy alitle dissapointed.
As far as root goes, there will always be a way to exploit software. Just be happy we have the best minds on it.

I was testing the Xda app on my new d6503. In fact it is my first post on XDA. I've learned a LOT just be reading. Hopefully this new firmware fixes the 4k recording issue and low volumes (notifications and speaker) . I get an "unknown error" immediately after I start recording in 4k. Once a firmware is certified does that mean it will be made public via OTA or PC companion? If so, how long does it normally take from certification to rollout ?

well this indicates a major update, UI or framework wise... the 2nd decimal change indicated OS version/SDK/API level update...

Anyone has idea when this ROM will be up ? Using 17.1.A.2.55 seems it sucks battery.

I ordered mine to Australia from Hong Kong, it arrived and had an update to 17.1.A.2.55 out of the box, after a few hours of tinkering I connected it to my PC and installed some of the Sony Mobile Companion software which notified me I had another update to 17.1.A.2.69.
I couldn't tell you what I noticed to be different as I had only had it for 2-3 hours, most of which consisted of downloading most my old apps and signing in etc.

While I agree that the update will probably be released in the next few weeks, PTCRB certification only tests for compliance to mobile (cell) network standards and is only a small part of Sony's certification process. Therefore it does not guarantee a particular firmware version will be released.

From My Xperia Z With XDA App

Very likely that 4.4.4 will stay the latest update. According to this source, Xperia Z will become EOL, and not get an official Android L update:

I personally think we was lucky to get 4.4.4 anyway so certainly not at all expecting Android L currently deciding what to do buy out my contract and get the Z3 or wait until January and see what else is available

6.0 in testing

Sony/E6853/E6853:6.0/32.1.A.0.X
Only a minor version change.

Do you mean Sony is testing Android 6.0 beta on Z5 series? If so, could you tell me how to get it?

Sony has 6.0 test builds already, operators should be getting them for acceptance tests.
I'm not personally testing them since I'm "stuck" with retails devices at the moment and no sorry I can't tell you how to get it.

I see. So do you think we will get "concept" version of 6.0 just like Z3 and Z3C soon?

I'm receiving an update now...don't know what it is yet!

Z5C was on 6.152 and as of yesterday is now on 6.200
My Z5P on 6.170, so the new update might be 6.200, putting everyone on the same version.

Check Sony's developer's website for instructions on how to unlock your BL and flash AOSP 6.0. I would just wait though. It's rumored to be officially released OTA in a month or two. Then you wouldn't need to lose your DRM keys.

I can see the binaries, is there an actual build that is flashable? I haven't seen one yet for my Z5P. I have 6.0 on another phone and would love to see a working build for this one. If you can point me toward the download, i would appreciate it.

Not that I know of. Just the binaries. You will have to build it on your own by following Sony's directions.

I think Sony may hold off and move to a once yearly now. There have been no substantial Z6 leaks and we usually see something within a month before MWC.

Huh? How do you come to that conclusion?
I guess the update will be with us either this month or next month. Either way we get it soon. The phone works fine ATM so there's no rush.

At this stage every year we usually see a leak of sufficient substance to show a phone will be released. So far nothing. All the leaks are just rumours.
Also at the start of last year Sony was asked whether they were going to move to yearly.... They said 'not yet' (the Z3+ then came out.)
If anything, the Z6 will be the same as the Z5 lineup with a change of SoC. Design change will be later in the year.

Any news? Does we get MM before or after MWC?

Z5 marshmallow update start rolling out

"Good news for xperia z5 owners"
Sony Xperia Z5*owners have a nice treat to wake up to this morning. The device is now getting Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
We should note that rollouts are only known to have begun in Turkey, and it’s not yet known when the rest of the world will get in on it. It’s also worth noting that the other variants in the Xperia Z5 family — the Xperia Z5 Compact and Premium — aren’t yet included in this round.
That said, it shouldn’t be long before more regions and more devices are hooked up, so be patient. As for those on Turkey with this phone, be sure to check for your new goods over-the-air.

As I said: no proof. Just read the "Z5 Marshmallow update" post and go a little backwards.

Transaction of above link
Good news comes from Turkey, namely the Facebook profile of the company. It appears that it started rolling out the Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the range Z5 . At the moment there seems to be a bit 'of traffic on servers but the OTA was sent and so it is only a matter of hours or at most a few days.
Turkey Sony also confirmed the update scheduled for February for Xperia Z2 also imagine for Z3 series. We'll see if after Turkey will follow European markets such as Italy

Fake
The source is a Sony Turkey fanpage, the first time that I've read this new was on January 21th. And I was verifying all days at XperiFirm without finding anything, so I dare to say that is a fake.

This info isn't from an official Sony Facebook page. It's a Turkish fanpage. Everyone can open a fanpage like this!

But what are you doing to calculate those firmware build numbers?
You change a 0 for a 1 in the 2nd slot.
Then you start summing the 4th slot (0........1.....)
And you just give a random number for the 5th slot?
I don't really know about Sony Xperia numbers. (What they mean).
And more importantly.....what's the purpose of posting something like this, without any context? Are you just trying to troll? If that's the case forgive me for taking you seriously at least once. (You're a Senior Member in XDA, so I don't really think this).

Im not a troll. This is only to show the latest state of sonys internal build process. As checked by handset detection.
Its easy
32 is Z5 Z3+ Z4 cause of unified devices with SD810
32.1 is 6.0 as 32.0 is 5.1
32.1.A.1 is a change more than 1000
32.1.A.1.150 so this made 1150 bugs or changes, because the latest number is usually under 1000
the first number changes for most devices
23
25
28
so on.
