General New System Update (62.1.A.0.587) - Sony Xperia 10 III

Hello,
this morning I got a message about a new system update 62.1.A.0.587, 313.5MB.
By searching the web I found no info related to this update, which is somehow strange.
I guess it could contain fixes for the various bugs that were reported on Android 12.
However, I think I will wait a while before update my device, just to be sure...
Any news?

I updated to this new build just a few hours ago, so far no issues. I had some issues on the previous build where taking pictures through WhatsApp didn't always work, seems to be fixed now. Let me know if you want me to test something.

Here's the details, they updated the security update version to april. Google play update you could already do on previous build independently.

I've just updated to this new version and to me it looks like the display issue (green tint, crushing of black levels) is finally gone. I hope I'm not getting crazy. I'll take a closer look after work.

Anyone using Android 12 found that Wifi auto-connect is not working? I mean even if Wifi is turned off. If you enter the range for a previously connected Wifi, the phone should automatically turn on Wifi and connect to it.
It used to work in Android 11 but doesn't work anymore since upgrading to Android 12.

mmm ... maybe I'm wrong,
but for me that option allows to auto-connect to a saved WiFi network only when the WiFi is ON.
How the device could be aware if you are in range of a WiFi spot if the WiFi itself is OFF?

I'm still using Android 11 as I decided to wait at least one update before upgrade to Android 12. But as this update didn't change the material layout, now I'm planning to wait some more...

It's a new feature introduced in Android 11. I don't know the exact technical details but it seems to utilize the location of the phone to detect if you're near a previously connected Wifi spot.
And according to the link below, this feature was broken after Android 12 Jan update and was fixed in Mar update.
Google Pixel 6 Wi-Fi auto-connect issue persists after January update
Some Google Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro owners say that their phone does not auto-connect to their Wi-Fi even though the setting is enabled.

https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/...matically-connect-to-specific-wi-fi-networks/ - "Android 11 has a new toggle in the settings panel for Wi-Fi networks called 'Auto-connect,' and when it is switched off, your device won't automatically connect to the given network as soon as it is discovered."
I think it's related to location, so location must be enabled. But this is just guess, as I don't use this option and wifi is always on.

I updated yesterday, everything seems fine for now, with no evident changes with respect to the previous one.
I appreciated the fact that Sony released two updates so closer in time.

I updated yesterday as well. After 24 hours I noticed that the battery drain caused by the previous update is much better now. No other notable changes other than that

After the last update that I wasn't happy with (pull-down menu became huge icons and having to click multiple times to turn on wifi, mobile internet etc...) I'll wait...

there are no changes in the UI

Another OTA update.

Just got a notification for a new update on my phone. I'm already on 24c. Downloading now
Update: now on 25a
Hope this fixes the location issue and also the other weird things.
From the VZW website:
Software Version: VS98625A
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update for your LG G4.
This update provides faster display response from a sleep state, and the latest Android security updates.
I just installed this latest ota. We'll see what this fixes.

he fixes our always a pleasure
Can anyone confirm if WiFi notifications for google apps still work on this 25a?
I remember they broke that in 13A and had to wait 2+ months for 13B to fix it.
I have 24c now and they are working so I'd like to know if they still work in 25a before I take it.
Not sure what the wifi notifications bug is.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
102.4mb. Has to be something in there besides a few security updates. I hope...
Here is a thread about the notifications bug that was in 13A but I'll summarize it.:
After we got 13A when I was on WiFi I wouldn't get any push notifications from google services (gmail, hangouts, etc.) as well as some other ones as well. As soon as I turned off WiFi or left my house and it went to 4G I got flooded with all the notifications. A number of smart people figured out it had something to do with companies that push notification over IPV6 vs IPV4. Eventually after 2 months 13B was released and all the notifications worked again over WiFi.
So if you can get a push notification about a new gmail or hangout while on WiFi on 25A then I'll assume it works and they didn't break it and all is good with 25A.
Apparently I can't post a link to the site because it says I'm too new (just 2 posts). If you google: "vs98613B wifi notification" without the quotes the thread is the 2nd one that comes up. It is on the verizon forum called: "LG G4 update breaks notifications!"
I've noticed that there is no longer a notification on the pulldown telling you what wifi network you're connected to.

The wifi signal seems to be stronger so far. Things aren't taking forever to load anymore.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
I actually don't have that now on 24c.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
Can someone please let me know if it fixes the display not turning on. I had to go back to 13b cause of that problem. I'd hate to update and not be able to downgrade.
I'm doing the update as I type this.
When WiFi is off it prompts to turn it on with an "improve location" notification.
It also hides multiple notifications with a single status bar icon. I believe cm had a setting for this, not sure what it's called, I dislike it a lot.
It definitely wakes quicker.
Is it just me or is the slide down notification drawer smoother or something? It seems....different.
Scrolling within apps seems smoother.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
I took the update after a buddy tried it and still got WiFi notifications from hangouts. I'll confirm the push notification while on WiFi are still working, as well as agree that it wakes faster and scrolling within apps that used to be choppy after the 6.0 update are back to being smooth. Not sure about the other issues mentioned (LED and screen not working) as I didn't have those problems so they both seem fine now.

S7 active update

Anyone else get the update??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using XDA-Developers mobile app
It's installing now. Any idea what is new/updated in this?
got the update biggest change was wifi calling not sure what else
Just got mine used and updated it today. Saw the wifi calling but didn't read the rest, I did notice mine was on the May security update and now it's on the July update so could be that.
They also removed all traces of the Oculus software that was originally on our devices. So no chance of getting VR support for these devices in the future then
wifi calling now available (eg wifi-only calling, BUT no wifi-only messaging so thats kinda stupid...)
activity zone 'compass mode' with 'map mode' (which never worked, only said 'google services is updating' removed
advanced messaging (separate balloon per text/attachment, and 'xxx is typing' is new)
Great news! The recent update 8/11/2016 fixed the dpi error we were getting. I was able to successfully change my dpi using the display scaling app. View attachment 3839483

I checked on the official site (which just recently added the phone on the site, as I've been checking often), and they don't have any info on updates or anything posted yet.
So far I noticed: WiFi Calling and Messaging, Message Scheduling (Don't think I noticed this before), Security Update, Removal of Oculus (the setup for the full Oculus Software), Advanced Messaging for AT&T customers, and Text Counter.
If we see anything else, I'll add to this, or we can hope for release notes/ change log
Anyway i can update this without att sim? Im using cricket
Should be able to
I have the s7 active and the battery life is OK not great but ok and the update installed WiFi calling and text messaging works on WiFi
The only times I've ever had good battery life on any Android device were and continue to be from custom roms and kernels. No stock rom including stock nexus roms give me good battery life. That being said, my used S7A is actually not too bad for everything stock without root and it had better with such a big battery.

That is likely due to compression in the SMS client you're using. I don't know what AT&T's limitations are on file size for MMS, but I do know third-party SMS apps allow for tweaking of that. I use Textra currently, and can set a max upload/send size in the options. I know other SMS apps have similar functionality, but I doubt the stock one does.
Another update today, looks to be only security fixes for Aug. I'm actually surprised they released it IN Aug and not months down the line. Lol

Might be a stupid question, but can you share what you used to flash it? I have an AT52, and no OTA, Xperia companion also says no update, and I never seem to have much luck with the various flash tools floating around the forums lol.

[GUIDE] Flashing a different customization on the XQ-AT51 with FlashTool | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
This guide works like a charm, just read the full topic and you are fine.
Thanks! It worked. I do notice that all app icons on the home screens are square now. Interesting. Time to play around with it.
No 120FPS option in 4k in Cinema Pro unfortunately? I thought they stated this was added for our 1ii. Bummer.
Edit: Just found it. Turns out I am dumb lol. It is there!
One more thing I just realized: Even after several restarts, the recent app button (on the 3 button navigation bar on the bottom), does not seem to work at all.
Did it bring any screen refresh rates above 60hz? There was speculation it would although at a lower screen resolution.
Update just arrived for me

So far so good, nice update

but im depressed...
I like the 4k @120FPs... but i would like to see a Focusbracketing function in the PhotoProApp, and a software button for the shutter.
I got the update today (located in Germany and all stock). So far, I haven't noticed any changes. Do we have a comprehensive change log somewhere?

Hi, me too. But I have an issue with my WiFi connection. I use a FritzBox 7590 with WPA2 + 3. With Android 10 it worked flawlessly with the new security setting but with today's update I can't use WPA3 anymore.
Does anyone have the same issue?

I'm using it cause... "auto upgrade"...
And all in all I'm ok with it but I'm experiencing one "bug" (see down below). Colors might be more saturated than before, but it's ok for me and it doesn't "hurt my eyes" as some describe it. I'm using the "natural" display mode and the display warmth slider is in the middle.
I read through the linked article a bit but it seams like the experience is very subjective or not all users experience this phenomenon or at least not as bad / strong.
-------
Since my upgrade to Android 12 I'm experiencing one quite annoying bug.
Background:
I'm using my device with the work profile to keep annoying apps at bay.
Using "Shelter" app.
Using "Aurora Store" in work profile to install apps.
No factory reset was performed since upgrade.
Not rooted.
Problem:
Since the upgrade to Android 12 I'm experiencing an quite annoying bug. Using the "phone" app (private profile) I have no sound and microphone sometimes. So I can't hear and can't be heard. If I'm activating the work profile and use the "phone" app (again from private profile) I suddenly have sound and microphone.
Fix / workaround:
Activate the work profile.
Another way to "fix" this problem is to reboot the phone.
After reboot it works for an undefined time. I haven't tested if the problem starts after using work profile and deactivating it again. I'm testing it and I'll try to not forget to post an update for others.
FYI:
If sound from other apps does work, wasn't tested until now. If you need to call you normally have no time for testing, so reboot it was for me.
Tested solutions:
Tested some general "solutions" from REDDIT & Co.
Editing settings in "Sound & vibration" -> "Audio effects": recommended -> "activate Dolby ATMOS". Phone doesn't have that so i resetted the setting (after tapping "Audio effects" tap "Settings" at the bottom then tap 3 dot menu and tap "Reset")
- DIDN'T WORK
Suggestion: it's a carrier problem
Set network selection to manual and select your corresponding network.
- DIDN'T WORK
Deactivate or activate "Wi-Fi calling". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
Enable or disable "VoLTE". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
My questions:
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Has anyone found a solution?
Thanks

Afterparty launchers didn’t carry some gestures from the original launcher (swipe apps and accidental touch)
Some mistakes in some translations and some margins in some buttons
Kill all apps button in the show all apps screen didn’t work properly
Audio problems with some dongle dacs (though don’t think it will be addressed)
Security patch from November (i mean… not a biggie but still its nice to be updated)
Notifications not showing up from time to time
Don’t know if anyone else experienced this but sometimes the brightness “flickers” or dims up and down in low light condition, don’t know if anyone else addressed that
That’s all i remember as of now
Security Patch is January 1, 2023
Performance seems fine so far. Didn't have any issues before.

The brightness flicker is really annoying in the morning/evening when it's really noticeable... hopefully that's been fixed
I think they will fix something with the update since they pulled it out yesterday and hasn't been available as of yet
