If u are using sus then u can create a FTf for yourself to make baçkup. Next time can re flash it back at anytime.

backing up all data and transfer to pc first.. will going to full wipe data and reset again for better performance..

yea.. i hope it can support for the android 5.0 in future too.. or at least bug fix..

not so fast i think..

Updated

Latest 4.2.2 10.3.1.A.0.244 fw for xperia zl (after few hours usage)

1. Social life apps updated.. Good and much friendly UI. More useful compare to previous..

2. Home launcher doesn't lag anymore.. Which is good thing.

3. Album zoom photo no more lag.. But album and Walkman apps didnt update like the leaks version.

4. Overall performance improved..

Battery life have to wait and test for next few days.. But at least didnt notice quick drain right now.. Thanks sony for fast update recently.. Not bad.. Expecting for android 4.3 and 5.0 future..

Edit: there is more heat noticed.

Lockscreen widget added one.. Trackid widget..
Socialife apps updated.. New UI.
Performance does improved.. Temporary no significant laggy happened in my zl.

Wonder got high resolution image while recording? Didnt found it..


This is common issue after upgrade new firmware.. Do battery calibration if u are root by apps. If non root, charge ur phone to 100%, use it until auto shut down. Rest the phone for 20minutes for cool down. Then charge it till 100%.

As I know whatsapp MSG won't gone even u transfer to new phone.. Same as viber.. Only wechat and line MSG will totally wiped once u go to new phone..

do battery calibration.. ytd update, battery reading bug.. then i force it charge till 100%, and then drain the battery till 0% directly by open 3D gaming, movie for total 4 hours like that.. then let the phone relax for half hour and cool down..

recharge it in shut down mode till green light and just let it charge till next morning..

used till now total 16h 42m+, SOT 1m 50m, 3G, Wifi, GPS, Auto-Sync turned on always, disable screen auto brightness. my battery still left 34%.. which i think very average.. for 18 hours i think can get 3 hours SOT. very average for daily usage..

above is my setting.. hope my guide can help..

SOT is different depend on the usage.. hardly to determine it.. for my own personal experience.. 3 hours SOT is average for 1 day from morning to night.. if phone below 3 hours then is poor battery life, smtg wrong there.. if above 3 hours up to5 hours, its consider good - very good battery life..

4.2.2 battery life from my Xperia zl

This is opened or turned on data, GPS, auto sync, manual brightness 25% all the time on testing. No stamina mode on

Mostly screen turned on to LINE and whatsapp and Facebook. Plus some surfing with dolphin.

Hope it's a guide for battery life in .244fw. Personal feedback is not bad. If turned off auto sync must be able to extend at least half hour.

Which phone are you? Z or zl? Zl checking now don't have. In stock rom .244 fw.

Using wifi ya.. U can get that sot.. If only data, I think hardly get 4 hours at all.. But I confirmed sony of course done the well job..

Screen flickering actually not so serious ady. Sometimes saw a little bit.. Hardly to notice it ady compare with last fw.

Still found screen flickering in my xperia zl.. Should I go service centre or everyone still got?

Me personal update from xperiablog or previous pages.. Shared by andrewst.. Prefer the Walkman update.. Album update solve the laggy problem..

.244 still can found screen display flickering sometime..

Don't know.. Never hv it before.. But line and viber able to do it..

Hmm. Out thre got some apps can try to unlock the phone with tap and others.. But personal thinking should be able to functioning always.. Don't worry about that..

Lol.. Depend on how user use.. It water resistant. Resist for accidentally water fall down or rain.. Not really ask ppl go submerge always d Ma..

Even watch resistant watches also not recommend to swimming unless g-shock..

Battery low. Charge and try again. If phone feel warm or heat then rest it a while let phone cool down. After retry again.

My zl also same too. Almost perfect but sometimes do found screen light is flickering. Sometimes only. Not all the time. Ask whether your sister notice about it. Thank you
