You can download it manually using xperifirm and flash it using flashtool.

You can do it all with flashtool 0.9.33.0, download and install because flashtool has xperifirm inside.

With the current build of android 11 it seems like the fingerprint is missing as an option under security setting.

I assume no photography pro app still? And does gestures work with 3rs party launchers?

I don't think that Sony respects last year's models enough to give them Photo Pro

I just got the update today and now my phone is extremely slow to unlock/light up the screen after i press the unlock button, does anyone experience this too ?

Today I had the update as well. At first glance, no big changes. The only thing I noticed is that the options and icons on the top bar have changed. And the powermenu. I keep investigating.

I certainly don't face such an issue! The animations though, are a bit slower than they were on Android 10.

I am experiencing persistent bugs in Android 11 Update when you charge your phone completely turned off the power button have a delay response to power it on again and when you watch a movie on the sony album app the navigation buttons fades away then if you use the mx player as an alternative video app it closes from time to time it never happens in Android 10.

I had this problem but I solved it by doing a repair from the Xperia companion.

It happened to me on the official youtube app. The controls disappear and the screen is no longer responding.

I think they have more bugs than I expected. We will have to wait for more updates.

I don't have bugs but, the Overall experience feels kind of slower. Not slow, but slower than it used to be. The boot up also is about 5-7 seconds slower. It feels like they put some weight on the phone.

Edit : I will wait for a next update, to see if it fixes the phone's speed. Even though I don't think it will. If not, I'll do a clean install, and if even after it things don't change, previous Android 10 will be my daily driver.

Yes there's some versions of the YouTube app that closes on me too.

Weird that you're boot up is slow mine seems faster and the boot animation now works than in Android 10 doesnt work it seems like it freezes.
