Not having the manual controls is a big let down!

Very nice work with the VOLUME. Now it's really good :good:

If you press vol- or vol+

If you tap on the "expand button" on the right

If you tap twice on the left icon, you can set the silent mode time with/without exceptions, including the alarm clock

Awesome! The current volume menu is horrible.

Rotting somewhere in a dark crevice, I hope.

It's integrated in silent mode, look better at the last screenshot (sorry if not in english): the exceptions are the priority mode. It's the same thing in a different way!

2 questions

1- How to root my Z3C after having android 5.1.1?
2- is it worth to update or should I stay on 5.0.2?

• After first boot the apps that were moved to SD card, were missing/broken even after couple of minutes. After second reboot everything was ok.
• Settings menu icons have changed: 1, 2, 3, 4.
• Recent applications list opens more quickly: 1,5 secons before, instantly now. Even after launching and quitting a game.
• Camera: indoor / low light seems about the same.
• When WiFi is on, 4G/3G indicator often disappears when calling (when phone switches networks). Because icons (almost) overlap on status bar. Doesn't happen with WiFi off.

Oh god, those status bar icons still haven't got fixed..it's like someone is doing that on purpose. I mean, what's wrong with the stock Android icons? At least they are properly aligned ffs.

Did Sony released My Xperia Theft Protection in this update?

Yes. It was there also previously.

1) Create your own rooted firmware with PRFCreator and flash it via recovery. Then flash the same firmware FTF with Flashtool excluding the "system"

2) Yes, if we don't find any big bug in the next few hours...

bella, sei italiano.. comunque me lo aspettavo che non avrebbero portato le api della fotocamera

I flashed my own rooted firmware, but I still lost root access (I used SuperSU-v2.46) any idea how to get root now?

I think it's always the same problem for any "baltic generic" lollipop firmware

Yes, I had no hope as well, as if they didn't import API for 5.0.2, I can't see why do it now with 5.1.1

Probably we need another "correction" by @[NUT] in his dualrecovery in order to let the root work properly on 5.1.1

At the moment re-flash the rooted 5.0.2 you had previously

in fact.. Sony do not it because she should redo the entire software of camera..
