    Anonymous, 18 Sep 2015How is the battery backup after lollipop 5.1.1.. .guyz pl... moreI just downgrade back to KitKat from Lollipop. Below are the bad points after use for 3 months of Lollipop:
    1. Wifi Connection and Mobile connection shown connected together. Yes. Both exist together at the same time.
    2. When experience weak signal of Mobile network, phone battery will drain drastically until flat on standby mode. It take about 4~6 hours to become flat after fully charge.
    3. Phone get overheated easily.
    4. Phone battery turn flat from 20% level. Most probably frequent overbearingoverheating and fast draining caused the shortage of battery life. But, unbelievable problem become better after back to Kit Kat.
    5. Some Apps response more faster and stable without freeze.
    6. Phone hangs.
    7. Too long booting and restart time. Using immediately after restart will causecause phone to Hang.
    8. And etc.

    So my advice is, remain in Kit Kat so that you wouldn't get regrettef after that and need to search for downgrade method.

    Cheers. I am feeling so comfortable with my phone now and really feel this should be the way this masterpiece should perform.

Try say that about a Samsung. I know 2 people that had s4 and s5 phones and they fell like a 2 foot drop and broke. One cracked and the other suffered LCD damage while mine took a lot of bad falls and works perfect. Microwave? 46 Degrees Celsius is the hottest mine ever got under extreme load and 47 when I accidentally left it in direct sunlight. If you have one like a microwave there's something wrong with it. I'm not saying Samsung are bad phones but they break way easier so there's no point bashing Sony with their sturdy waterproof phones.

              I am from india and I updated my z1 to 5.1.1 couple of days back. It's seems to work fine. I did not face any battery draining issues till now. Of course it was bit hot during the first boot. But after an hour or so, it was back to normal. Other than a few design aspects that are a bit off, I feel it works fine.

              I'll post if I find any issues.

                              The Z1 camera is not a true 20mp camera - its really an 8mp camera with some software interpolation. The 20mp mode is truely awful. Don't use it.

                              The 8mp mode photos are also pretty poor under low light. I'd be interested to know if the Z2 and Z3 suffer in the same way

                                I find the phone much better on 5.1.1. Simple fixes and it just seems faster. Also when the battery died I could plug it in and turn it straight on. Usually it takes 20+ minutes to turn back on.
