I just got the new firmware last night on my XZP dual. it comes with September security patch and improved WiFi performance, bugs fixes, optimisations & improvements (written on the update log).

What I noticed was that stuttering on Facebook app is almost gone (heavily stuttered on previous firmware especially when open some external links). Touchscreen issue is gone (I suspected this issue happened earlier due to network incompatibility that slows down the phone to the point that touch input is not recognized sometimes, it could be temporarily solved by removing sim card or swapping between sim slot 1 and 2(only possible on dual sims variant) This problem does not happen to everyone).

Will update if I find any interesting changes.

Thanks for your thread! It reminds me what i wanted to do if i got some free time. Haha... I saw that yesterday on sonymobile.com but I had no time to check it in depth. I will do that now, because they also planned to do changes for unlocked devices (no green pictures anymore) a few months ago. Would be awesome if they really did that. And I hope that they fixed the other bugs, too. I also noticed the stuttering on Facebook and some other apps.

Edit: XperiFirm actually has only the "Customized TH" @ 45.0.A.7.137 for the G8142. Have to wait for the others. But I will take a look at this version now. :)

No, I don't use all-time 4K. XZP just automatically takes screenshots in 4K.

How could you tell the screenshot was 4K?
It's simple, open the image with the web browser (right click on it and open photo in another tab) and save it on your computer/smartphone and after go on his proprietis (right click on the file) and you will find, on the details tab, the size of the photo easly

I'm on a carrier specific firmware and think about flashing a generic one. Do you guys know which files should I omit in newflasher to not mess up with the encryption because I don't want a factory reset?
