For those cannot wait, can go to download D6603 firmware and flash it into D6653.
There is nothing difference from XDA report.

Z2 and Z2 tab released 5.0 too.

Yup.
Before this, some peoples flashed other version to root, because they cannot found their own version.

And i guess there is nothing different in hardware term for D6603 and D6653.
The only different is different bands.
And Qualcomm has all LTE bands supported. Different firmware unlock different bands only.

So flashing D6603 may not giving any side effect for Malaysian Telco, since we are using band 3 & 7, which included in D6603 too.

Nop, i didn't.
I can't flash now because the recovery do not work in lollipop yet. I need keep the root, so i don't want give myself any trouble.

Root will void warranty.
But you can flash a clean firmware before send back to warranty.

Root is easy now, it just waste you some hours of time.

3 days already, didn't have any update outside the Baltic & Nordic area ~.~

Seem like Sony has SELinux enforced after Lollipop version.
This mean future phones will have better security(good thing) but will even harder to exploit root.

Sometimes there are a lot of fun to having root access, although i do not need it always too.

Currently i am using xposed to disable SD protection, disable shutdown/restart in case my phone has been stolen or lost, i still have the last chance to chase it back thru myxperia app. Other functions like hiding the shortcuts that i do not use always. And the sound mod and stereo speaker for loudspeaker & ringtone is quite good.

Advanced Power Menu+ (APM+)
It can delete the power menu, and replace a fake shutdown menu, which put your phone into screen off.
Or you can set password for shutdown/restart.

I heard cerberus is quite nice.
But Sony comes with myxperia & android device manager.

There should be no way to permanent lock unless manufacturers do something in the booloader/kernel side.
At least this trick manages to get you few hours to find from the noobs.

Probably no difference.
Maybe more or less LTE bands which will not related to our country.

And the bloatwares.

Some peoples success to flash D6603 firmware into D6633. And flash the modem driver to make the dual sims work.


BTW, it has already one week but no update outside the Nordic countries.
I feel it is weird, it usually get in other countries asap it started to release.

Maybe a newer version is coming?
