Having had my Z1 Compact for about 2½ years it finally decided it had had enough. A couple of weeks ago on a day out the battery died even though it was fully charged before leaving home.
I tried factory reset, reflashing the firmware and countless reboots before deciding it was definitely a battery issue. Once it got down to 65% it could die at any time. Shutting down the phone and rebooting caused the charge to drop by 5% every time.
Thought I was gonna miss this little phone a lot, but I bit the bullet and got a new Sony X Compact. Gotta say I'm very impressed with the new phone. I can see why sony didn't update the Z1C to Marshmallow as the integration on the new X range of phones is pretty impressive. I'd wanted to get a Z5 Compact, but my provider had stopped supplying them a few weeks ago so I'll miss the waterproofing but then again, I'm 2 ½ years I'd never submerged my Z1C in liquid.
Good luck with your Z1C's and thanks for all the hard work put into ROM's etc. here but for now its goodbye and I'll be in the X compact threads.
