4.4.4: C6506 - Massive lag - Sony Xperia ZL

Anyone else in this situation ? The lag on 4.4.4 is slowly getting worse, its at the point where I can type about 5-6 words before it will end up on screen.... Everything is slow, seems like the CPU is in a constant state of throttling... Restarting and even hard reset doesn't fix it. Upgraded through PC companion..... Has anyone had this issue, and will a clean generic flash fix it ? Or is it just an OS bug ?

There most certainly is still something wrong with 4.4.4 though it's allot better than 4.4.2 mine isn't as bad as yours and a clean generic flash should help but 4.3 is still a little bit better.

Agreed, 4.3 is better........... For those having my issue.... Google has released a standalone Google Messenger app.... I have been using it since yesterday and keyboard lag is little to none, massive difference than sony SMS app... Set it as your default and never look back...
It also seems the google keyboard is getting the Android L treatment and is being rolled out now.... Hopefully the update will get to the ZL... that will help for sure.... Nice to see All the android L refreshed apps are much smoother
Any one get the calender update ? Still waiting on that one, but have received the Maps and playstore Android L style....

I also have massive lag after 5 to 7 days of uptime. And I also experience audio distortion now and then, when listening to music. Doesn't matter what music app I am using... Deezer, poweramp or Player pro. It sounds like if the CPU is under massive load from time time and it's getting worse the longer my zl is running. Reboot fixes the lag, but not the audio distortion.
I am thinking about switching to my Moto E that I bought for sports tracking. Although it is cheap and has much less power it feels smoother, when it comes to daily usage... And it has no audio distortion...

It really ain't laggy. im using 4.4.4 from the day its released without any problem i always do a clean install. may be thats why its quite stable. i would suggest a PCC repair.

I did a clean install. Factory reset - update via PC - factory reset - format sd card. Clean enough I think
Switched to ExistenZ Rom now, seems better...

Try the Google SMS and Keyboard.... world of a difference.... feels like I went from an Intel i3 to an i7 lol....... I did have an issues yesterday when I was using Netflix app it suddenly shutdown and restarted...
Also update 10.5.1.A.0.292 is currently rolling out for the ZL... so this will make things better or worse lol

Quick update.... With the changes I made previously, it's still running the smoothest in the 15 months I have owned it.

[Q] Loud click/pop noise

Has anyone else experienced this? I can't quite pinpoint when it happens, sometimes it's when the flash comes on, other times it just happens randomly. Opening images/videos sometimes does it too.
It comes from around the back but I can't tell if it's the light making the noise or if it's coming from the speaker. Very strange. On the odd occasion it will restart the phone immediately after the noise.
+1 i also get this sometims after exiting a games,switching apps and phone either freezes or restarts any idea what this might be ?

yes thats the thing that hapens to me and its been hapening since i bough the device from day 1 i though it was normal .. :/
Well at least I'm not the only one then! I've googled it before hoping someone might know what causes it (even if it happens on other devices) but I couldn't find anything.
I have this issue too on stock GB.
To start solving it, could anyone confirm if it appeares only on GB or on JB too?

Screen flickering on .244 still

I'm still getting screen flickering on hackitz .244 ROM, I thought this issue was addressed with Sony. Now I randomly get random flickers, sometimes it's okay but other times I notice it a lot and it bugs me. Anyways, any help would be much appreciated thanks in return! Also I've installed some mods that might be a possibility so far I've used 5 button nav bar, Google boot animation, purexaudio mod along with srs chsp and DTS sound enhancement. Anyways any help would be appreciated, I'm about to full wipe my phone along with backup.
Edit: I fixed it with a full and proper restore, turns out I deleted a necessary service in titanium backup xD anyways mods close this please.
What did you delete that causes screen flicker

I've noticed disabling MyXperia happens to cause the screen flickering constantly so I re-enabled it. Soon after I've realized when I followed a tutorial on how to save battery life (for the Xperia Z) I ended up deleting a ton of services such as a bunch of coms.android.blah and VerifyCertificateDummy with a bunch of others and it was constant. I restored and deleted the ones I was comfortable removing/freezing and restarted multiple times to see if the issue persisted. Anyways the flickering is gone now from a completely clean install of Hackitz
Problem Still there
I am on stock .244 build with Bootloader locked and I am experiencing the screen flickering problem as well
Though myxperia service is activated on my phone I am still having problems PLEASE HELP!!
I´m from Brazil and I´m having the same problem (screen flickering). My friend has the same mobile and guess what??? The same problem as well.
I asked to Sony my money back, they will answer me next week.
P.S: I sent it to repair twice, but they just updated the software and sent it me back. Unbelievable!!!
It happened to me suddenly after a week of getting new device from sony.i was tensed n reseted my phone n reinstalled software using SUS..now the flickering is gone...i dont knw wether software cause it or hardware cause it...bt its seems fine now

A new fw update for Xperia ZL is available and its has definitely resolved the screen flickering problem with my device :thumbup:

Snapchat

Shot in the dark I guess but since I got this device, Snapchat has been terribly laggy and almost unusable. Specifically when using the keyboard for text. Sometimes when I launch it, the camera is just black for roughly 5 seconds and then the back camera comes on finally. The chat feature is very slow at times and the entire app seems to stall and crash at least once a day. Anyone else notice this?
A quick google search yielded several recent topics on various forums complaining about the same thing, all on 6.0 Marshmallow. Hopefully it's not just this device.
I'm getting this exact thing
I went through that too. Once I had to restart it to make the camera work again. My tip is do not try use volume keys until it load completely. It just frozen the app in a black screen. Isn't perfect but can be used.
It's probably not optimized as well for 6.0 yet
Snapchat hasn't been perfect for me, but I've never experienced any of those issues. The worst I get is a little delay when pressing the home button.

I have had this problem we will have to wait for an update!! Basically that's what I've been telling myself lately about marshmallow

I can tell you guys I had this problem on my Nexus 6 on Marshmallow, it has to be something related to 6.0, I'm on a LG G4 now and snapchat runs just fine.
Kinda laggy for me too. And I can't get it to play a notification sound when I recieve snaps. I have turned it on in settings and I get a notification as normal, but no sound. Does anyone else have this problem?
Just uninstalled it from the n5x will have to limit myself to using it on n72013 it was unusable. Crashes camera failed to load then started to affect the stock camera app, would cause system crashes and could only be sorted with a reboot.
Same here its completely horrible to use of this phone. Phone ****s itself every time I try use it!

The app has been perfectly fine for me, up until the update I got yesterday. Now I see exactly what everyone is talking about....it's completely unusable now.
Our of curiosity...are you guys all encrypted?

Ok never mind then. I've been decrypted since I got the phone, until I took an OTA recently. It's been crap since then, but I guess it's unrelated

Well again Snapchat just updated, and now I'm back to it working fine again....

The past few updates have been good for me luckily.. Just don't try to send a snap while in landscape, I tried to add text and Swiftkey went all wonky and overlayed the screen even after I pressed Home, had to force close Snapchat and Swiftkey both :/
me too I have same issues the lag and so slowly for texting and even after update marshmallow update 6.0.1 the problem still the same I hope can anyone help me with issue what should to do and thanks you
So I am a power snapchat user and had this same problem and might have accidentally stumbled on a possible solution after having a login failure. I enabled the travel mode so it's not downloading constantly. I installed snapprefs and I can't explain why but it's flying now. No lag on window switching or opening the camera. I'm on 6.0.1 December rooted
Everytime I take video from Snapchat, it produces the sound "dug" at the first second of the video, never put my finger too hard on the phone so it isn't bcs of my finger knocking the screen, anybody know why?

Overheating problem while using google cardboard

Hello
I have a problem with the h815 (black leather)
I bought a vr box, so i can enjoy the google cardboard options
But while using it after 30 minutes the device begins to say : the phone is overheating if this continues the phone will shut down
5 minutes later it shuts off...
And after that i cant boot the device for 5 minutes.
But another thing i notice, in the begin when i start using it every things runs fine and lag free.
After some time lets say 15 a 25 minutes everything begins 2 lag, video's are lagging and watching 380grade picture also.
Some one has idea for preventing it too overheat?
And also who hase the same problem . or has a google cardboard box en not having the problem
I did not yet experience any overheating while playing a game. but I don't game that often
I currently running on my device
Custom rom marshmallow genisys 3.5 exposed edition with the stock rooted kernel 20b
My old G4 (h811) used to have the same issue. I had one of the ones with a bad motherboard so i kinda knew why. Have you tried closing all app besides google cardboard? If so have you tried turning on the core control and temp. Throttle in kernel auduitor (assuming you have root) if none of those help then i dont know. Thats all i got.

Nothing wrong with the overheating, that's what happens when u push the phone. As simple as that.

Little bit strange don't you think?

Do you have any of these problems on your OP3?

Hello, everyone. I got my OnePlus 3 2 weeks ago. I've been having a couple of problems with it and I wanna know if any of you has the same problems. First of all, the phone is a good phone and I like it but these problems are bothering me greatly and that's why I asked for a replacement instead of a return.
The first problem was when I went on this great trip. I took like 30 pictures. My brother asked me to send him the pictures of the trip. I used Android beam to do so. While the pics were being sent, I cancelled the process because I had to leave. Guess what happened? I lost all the pictures that were being beamed. At first, I thought this was a problem with Android beam itself, but I tried Android beam with other phones, and the pictures didn't get deleted. I tried it again on my OP3, and the pics just disappeared. They disappear if you cancel the process of beaming. Can you please verify if you have this problem?
The second problem is navigation. It's very inaccurate and it got me lost multiple times. Do you have this problem?
The third problem is in YouTube. Some vids on YouTube only play in 480p even though they play up to 2k on other phones. (I know op3 only supports 1080p but I still don't get this option. My internet connection isn't the problem because it's super fast)
The phone is super fast but it's kinda stuttery and not smooth sometimes.
Also, battery life after the latest update, 3.2.1, has been really bad. It drains so fast.
Do you have any of these problems?
Thank you.

Guys, please try Android beam. Please tell me if you have the same problem or not.

Well for starters, have you messed with the phone? As in unlocked, rooted, flashed anything etc?
I'm on 3.2.1 also and my YouTube app allows me to view videos at 1080p, though it won't let me access the higher FPS videos like my OnePlus One would.
Battery life is actually pretty good considering the specs and the 3000mah battery.
No stuttering to report... The thought of it never even crossed my since I bought the OP3, it's so fast!
Yes, the GPS performance actually sucks, I don't know of OnePlus is aware are trying to fix it, but it does suck, I've had issues using Uber, Lyft, and Pokémon Go, haven't driven around or used Google Maps much yet.
I always do a fresh install of the OS whenever a new update is available, or just fresh install the updated factory image, because I root, flash other things, and change things, and I want to avoid issue, so avoid dirty flashing.

I use GPS a lot for riding my bike and Pokemon Go running, but I had no issues. But I use a custom Rom and kernel.
I use stock rom (3.2.1 with unlock bootloader and root) and use Waze every day to work. Not a single issue. Fix in 2/3 sec and never lost position. Battery life is normal, not brilliant. 04.30h SOT. Not bad. Android Bean didnt ever used. Dont need it. Youtube able to view videos in 1080 with no porblem. And the smartphone is fast and smooth. Try a factory reset to see if problem are solved

I'm not rooted and I've never missed with the phone. The YouTube problem appears with some videos only, not all of them. Battery life used to be pretty good before the latest update but the latest update made it worse. The performance problem appears clearly on Snapchat. It's very laggy on Snapchat and when recording Snapchat videos, the videos kinda stutter.
Thank you for your reply. I appreciate it.

Hello, the problem arrived when you watching 60 fps movies ..
1080p/60 fps -> 480p on OP3
No problem with 30 fps movies
1080p/30 fps -> 1080p on OP3
I have same issue and I'm boring !
Had the problem with do not disturb being turned on .I had not touched the Alert Slider.Also sometimes gestures would work while my phone was in pocket(double swipe to turn on music for example.) .
