We won't get Android O, we're going to get nougat at some point. I just want nougat for doze on the go and split window. There is nothing that stands out for me in Android O.

Haha yeah fair. Haven't checked what the differences are yet. Anyone know? I've ported a few ROMs for my old Moto G (falcon), which now has many nougat builds available for it! Just wish more development was done for Sonys.
As announced by Google on revealing the version name, named "Oreo", its also listed that XA will get an update for it.

Lol and where did you get that from? Sony hasn't said anything regarding Oreo AFAIK.
I'm pretty sure the XA is done now that it has gotten 7.0, even 7.1 is unlikely in my opinion but it is a great phone nonetheless.
I dont think will get android 8.
But i am ok with nougat!

I know how it works. Sites like that do it with purpose (more people will see it and share with their friends and they get more visitors to their site). I had Xperia E3 where some sites said the same for that phone when MM was released and guess what? E3 is still on KK 4.4.4.
You can't trust all these sites, they're just tech geeks typing what they think or have been incorrectly told. Sony hasn't said anything for any devices yet, though I am certain XA will be left on 7.0 which is fair considering it is a mid-low end phone. When I had the Xperia SP some site said we'd still be getting 4.4 when Sony went back on their word but that never happened and it was ditched on a buggy 4.3.
Well It's confirmed NO Android O for XA (https://blogs.sonymobile.com/2017/08/31/xperia-android-8-0-oreo/) :|

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 ?

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.

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

So this means Xperiz Z2 will also get AOSP rom from Sony, that's a huge advantage in long term development for this device. What do you think?
They said this for Xperia S way before. And you know what? xperia S didn't receive single AOSP from Sony.
So I would say, you can ignore this news.
(case with Xperia S, happened to multiple phones, so I don't see reason why will they change this now)

Officially from Sony

We know that Sony is taking help from jerpelea for AOSP releases. Only time will tell if its happening or not!
Android One has already hit hard on big names, AOSP ROM will be a way to directly provide the updates without much headaches.

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 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?

Well, for sure it's overpriced... the screen is not worth it and coming from a ZU I also struggled at first with the size. Afrer a while you realize that it's actually a really nice phone, but still overpriced
On the plus side, with a good quality "wired" headphones you have superb music experience, incredible! The camera is apparently very good as well but I'm not the selfie type :silly:
The only sw I miss is stamina, if they bring that back in I will be quite happy having spent a considerable amount on this handset
