hmm having a no of problems w my XZ dy... the 3.5mm jack cannot detect my earphones anymore, hardware failure maybe?. tried with diff cables/ headphones but all failed.
The phone also freq freezes after the latest update, prolly due to the high ram memory usage by android OS (avg abt 1.9gb).
i guess that's it for me, even my old ip6 never hv this sort of shit problems. going to sony to get the phone checked/ repaired and sell it off.
Did you check the headphone jack hole if anything stuck in there. Btw how much do you plan to sell it?
I found my phone getting lag, and very lag after updated to nougat. Compared to my old Z3, it used to have 2x benchmark. But the reality is, the z3 is 2x faster and responsive than my xz now.
Then i start to find the reason, and i found it now. I used few hardware tools and benchmark apps. I found Sony disable 2 CPU in nougat.

And the benchmark drop, at least 40% than 6.0 It used to have 120k+ marks.

A restart make it goes to 110k, but still under performance.
It could have been the case. Need other user did the same to see if they have similar problem. Did you managed to find the solution?
