Just flashed my pre-rooted zip a moment ago. Still 5.1.1. Nothing new on first look.
Doing some sound checks with spotify.
Could be a placebo but sound seems improved.
All the Google bloatware system apps are back!
May its just a stagefright 2.0 fix.

1,34GB big? No, I think it is a lot more since it is basically the whole Lollipop 5.1.1 ROM install size else they would just roll out a patch along the 0,2GB range.

Well I asked in the other thread about size and was told 1,35GB. That is roughly the same as the 5.1.1 update was. Seems quite big if they only are going to patch Starfright 2 and some minor tweaks/bug fixes. But then it can be that they fixed core bugs that needed updates to several system components or just that this is the final update for the Z1 line and thus they want to release a complete firmware.
It's over 1 GB because on XperiFirm you only get complete firmwares.
I bet the OTA notification on our phone will not download and install over 1 GB. We will only get the updated files. I don't know what size it will be. Never did an ota on my phone.

Ota is generally around 200 to 400 mb on my z2, when i got update over ota {5.1.1}
My impressions so far:
- Stagefright fully patched
- Sound seems to be louder using movies app and music app, but I don't know if it's a placebo.
- Video playback is smooth using hw+ in MX player, before that version the playback was hanging when you seek using hw+
- performance seems to be improved, since I don't have noticed any hang since the first boot
- Battery seems to be better, I only get 2% drop while testing AnTuTu and I get around 39k, I don't really care about this number since the general performance seems to be really good
- I am noticing a bug while using phone dial, It don't sound when I press the number keys.. But this is an insignificant detail for me
- Camera seems to be a little faster too
- I haven't noticed any new feature until now
- I'm from Brazil but I'm using Hong Kong firmware version which is fully compatible with the Brazil frequencies and seems to be debloated

Camera lag
Hi guys, I'm testing right now the DE prerooted zip with clean install. It's quite good it's not heating so much, I would say similar to KK. Battery drain.. can't say yet, probably still not as good as KK but good enough. The sound quality seems different (worse) to me, using really clean sounding MH1C and can hear a difference between KK and 5.1.1. But I can't stand the camera lag, found out that if I set low ISO (50, 100) there is no such lag but with higher ISOs deffinitely is and quite significant! Do have this lag too?
Waiting for the C6903.
Did anyone try any modes on the new firmware? Like 120 fps or 4K or call handling? How is the wifi? With latest firmware, mine had degraded. How is the wifi reception on the new firmware?
Hello any memory bugs?

Upgraded using Sony PCC yesterday, and must say that I like the new build very good. My phone is totally stock, unrooted, non branded version.
Overall the speed of the phone is a lot better. Especially in Hangouts and the launcher. No more waiting for two seconds after pressing the "home" button for icons to show.
Also battery is drastically better for me. Two hours screen time, an hour of talking, everything on sync as normal and still 70 % battery after 12 hours... Pretty impressive.
Still have black screen in Chrome on multitask, though. Annoying
Anyone else have experiences or bugs to share? I will try to sum it all up in this first post, making it easier to get an overview. I will mark the info I have been able to confirm with green color.

It's an Xposed module... Fixes uninstall dialog text being way off ?
Download From repo here: repo.xposed.info/node/147
Camera on .136
i can notice that Camera performance in low-light condition (s-auto & manual) is worse than previous fw.
any can confirm it?
Hey guys, since 4.4.2 has arrived.. I think its fair to create a thread where all of us can report whatever bugs exist in 10.5.A.0.230.. So that Sony can see this and fix them.. Or it might help our devs..
EDIT:
Bugs i found,
1. Wifi gets disabled by itself, a simple reboot solves it though.
2. Small stuttering on the notification bar.
3. RAM leak exists but gets fixed after a reboot(Google's 4.4.2 bug and its fixed in 4.4.3).
4. GPU drivers arent as good as in 4.3..
5. Over time, the fw becomes unstable'ish and shows some lags and apps take time to open.
6. Sometimes calls won't reach the other side and when it does, the caller(us) wont be able to hear anything from the other side.. This happens a lot like once in every 2-3 days..
7. Sometimes after video recording, there is no sound in the video.. Its MUTE..
7. All 4.4.2 Google's bugs..
If u have any other to add, mention me and i'll add em..
Fixes:
Most of the bugs are solved automatically after a simple reboot, if u face lags do wipe cache and dalvik cache and u will see the difference..
Google Play Services battery drain bug can be solved by disabling the Location service.

It seems to be normal that 4.4 is a bit laggy, try out the following: "Settings--> Developer Options --> Force-GPU Rendering", after rebooting it should be a bit better :good:

Yeah its really annoying for kitkat to have a huge drain off battery
By the way, does anyone already tried this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
Im still on 4.3 but confirmed info from my friend:
Camera app slower start, typical is 7sec but max was 14-17sec, and overall laggy camera menu.
Stock keyboard slower start, and laggy text select option.
Overall speed of menu is worst.
No audio notification via bluetooth
Battery "sucker" system apps.
4.4 stupid SD card limitation(but its google stupid idea)
Worst performance with GTA: SA
PS enabling Force-GPU Rendering or {omg} 4x MSAA is worst thing that you can do, because it make older apps lag or even FC.

Same performance in games (Real Racing 3), slightly better battery usage, almost same RAM usage, no lag in notification bar/area, for now superstable and smooth.
Saw someone posted that there's no the letter " L " to tap while pressing the 4.4.2 3 times,it just turns black screen,and few more press to reach the Android KitKat logo.
Looks like .227 and .230 is the same,Sony devs didn't fix anything.

It was expected,seems like they didn't put much effort into this,just to give us "something".I knew it they are not delaying the release just to perfect the firmware,but oh well,going back to my favorite AOSP.It was the same case back then,when they released 4.3 journalists version,then they gave us the very same firmware as official,despite the bugs that everyone was reporting.We got what we deserve I guess.

As mentioned in the root or update thread, the OTA updates contain only patches to the binary code and not full source. It'll have to come from Alcatel.

I am not sure if it is just me - but at least this part is NOT fixed. clearing open apps still has the same stutter that it had before. I restored the animation scale back to 1x and that has not changed anything. Maybe that is how it is supposed to be.
The app launching appears to have improved *slightly* . Whether double tap is more reliable remains to be seen. The update did not reset my launcher setting i.e. it did not revert to the stock launcher .
Overall - so far , I am not seeing anything worth getting too excited about - Not so far at least.
BTW - just to confirm - I now have Android version = 5.0.2 Kernel version = 3.10.49 Build number = 7SQR-UER0

Same here, not too much difference noted with this update. Anyone know if Alcatel includes a changelog someplace with these updates?
I feel differently. This update, so far, is great. The lag I had previously is nearly gone and installing apps is much much faster. DTTW has worked everytime (only tried about 7-8 times so far) unlike previously when it hardly ever worked. I don't notice anything different on the camera but I've only played with it for a short period. I've not used this phone as a daily driver since I got it in May because of the user experience, it just lagged and I hate lag - especially compared to my LG G2. Today however, I put my sim card in and will give it a true test, being the daily driver.
I was going to return it initially but held onto it waiting for an update and glad I did. I simply couldn't understand why this phone was not at least as fast (or faster) than my LG G Pro Or HTC One M7 since both of them are running the Snapdragon 600 (vs 615) and slower GPU. Plus both are also running pretty heavy skins yet both were way faster/smoother than the Idol 3. It had to be software and optimization which seems to be what this update addresses. The screen and speakers on this phone are to die for and I'm glad it's now able to be used effectively. I may think differently in a day or so after a real world test but for now I'm excited about this little guy.
I just got the update this morning, and my initial reaction is pretty good. The phone just feels snappier overall. The notification shade seems to come down very smooth all the time now. Previously, when the keyboard was open, the notification shade would drop a lot of frames when you pulled it down. The camera seems to be doing a better job of getting the correct point of focus too. Also, double tap to wake actually works now! This is huge for me because it only worked about once out of ten tries for me before. I'm happy.
Edit: I'm also seeing about 1.5GB of extra free storage. I wonder if the phone wasn't properly moving apps to the sd card before. I have about 12 games installed, and I have them all moved to the sd card.

Looks like you guys had the update we got last week in europe. It runs much better , cleaning apps doesn't lag anymore and everything runs smoother.
For the people still having problems can you confirm you're in 5.0.2-010 03 ?
I have just received new OTA update 1.85.401.5 for European version of M9 Plus.
Please
Can you share with us a copy of your new rom ? Please
What do you mean?
Can you do a zip file to install in recovery ? like tlbade has maded ?
@zazabichi so it's not 5.1, right?
With my s-off, i've just converted to main version 1.08 Europe region 401, all went fine. Now updating to 1.61, then hopefully to 1.85 Then i'll dump system image and look at creating an update for CleanSlate ROM

I had the stock 1.61.401.7 unlocked through HTCdev, rooted & installed exposed. I reverted to the stock back up I made (before root/exposed) but the OTA install is not working. I also reverted to stock recovery (only found 1.61.401.6). The attached image is what I get in the stock recovery after I get the red exclamation image. Any idea what am I doing wrong? do I have to re-lock the bootloader first or is it because of the stock recover being for 1.61.401.6 instead of 1.61.401.7?

I think it will be the difference in recovery.
Unfortunately I don't have that recovery extracted. Maybe someone caught the fota URLs andbacked up the OTA zip, that should contain the recovery, but I don't have them, sorry
Is there an improvement of the performance after the OTA? I'm interested in buying this phone to upgrade my M8. I read some reviews says that M9+ it cannot handle high frame rate games very well. even on switching to other apps on multi tasking.
Are this issues were improved after the latest OTA?
Thanks!

Better stay with the M8 if you're in for gaming. The OTAs didn't change much related to that, and I don't think it's possible. 2K screen and the GPU of iPhone 5S is not meant to be paired for high demand gaming, and no OTA will change that IMHO. For casual gaming still okay.
Antutu seems to score lower. But the ui multitasking seems to be improved overall quite a bit.

Thanks for the info. Maybe I'm still upgrading to M9+ since I'm not into gaming. What I really like on HTC devices is the boomsound. I am tempted for the QHD and fingerprint sensor for M9+. For those features, still pretty good to upgrade to M9+.
What really confused me to buy is because of the news that HTC Aero will be coming soon. It would not feel great when you buy a new one then suddenly, another one is released.

games lag because it isn powerful enough for 2k res..... so how bout this?.... Using App Settings (xposed module) we can decrease the resolution
Since i dont hwve any high end games at present... if some1 else tries this do tell if this works

I only see DPI settings in the feature list of this mod, and that won't change the screen resolution of the game itself. Is it possible to change the screen resolution for games?

It is strange that the Taiwan update mentions Battery improvements while the Euro update has System improvements, one would think they would be the same kind of upgrades, but they are different & also different in size.

Just received. Does this have the touch screen sensitivity fix as well ? No mention about the screen (see attached pic), but mentions battery improvements though
What country and carrier? I just installed 10h from Rogers in Canada and it definitely fixed the touchscreen issues I was having.

Same ^^^...... Good to know, installing right now
It did. It works like a champ. The first thing I did after i flashed it was root it, lol.
@GibMcFragger, THE Low Effort root works? Pls explain a little. Or your device's bootloader is unlocked?

Yep. You don't need an unlocked bootloader because you aren't using an exploit. You just backup your system image, inject the root files into it (the backup that's not on your phone), then flash the rooted backup via ADB. You can flash full KDZ or system images in download mode with a locked bootloader.
Got it as well in Israel (h815L) , cant see any difference than F version we had before.. probably under the hood stuff
Battery improvements had definitely worked... I would normally use about 8% battery in about 8 hours of zero use.... Now I used 1% in about 8 hours of zero use..... At the very least, standby performance has improved

Nothing different. feels smooth, probably just placebo.

How do you inject the root? I've used this method but only with pre-rooted IMGs. Otherwise, I noticed an improvement in responsivness and unlesss I am wrong, increased call volume/clarity.

You need Ubuntu to do it, but it is easy. The steps are in the root thread.
I've been using it for a few days also on a Rogers G4. I didn't have major touch issues but it is more responsive now. Battery is better but there is way more throttling when gaming now. It starts to throttle and lags a lot to limit heat when gaming. However, the phone itself is smoother and they fixed some things. I like that they added a notification volume control that is separate from ringtone and they moved the slow motion to Mode in the camera app.

Try disabling the Game Optimizer option in Battery Settings, probably some throttling setting. Mine is enabled by default. I did notice a lot of heat coming from this phone. Had it for about 2 days prior to update, haven't felt any heat since.

I had it disabled when the throttling happened .
What I read it does is that it reduces graphical quality a bit to give more battery life.
Can you upload me system/etc/thermal-engine-8992.conf?
It contains the thermal engine temps and actions so that I can compare it and mod it
I have a H818p - any idea when this update will hit that model?

Attached. Note that I'm not rooted so I won't be able to test.
Thank you so much.
I'll give it a proper look in a few hours but from a fast look is not different from the euro v10e one.
If you want when you'll be rooted I can mod it to have gpu intensive games going smoothly even when heating (cutting more aggressively cpu wich doesn't mean much in rr3 for example)
