Known Issues so far

[davidhozic]

3 Months of using this and most of the bugs are still there

These are the bugs:

1.] Camera app sometimes shows a unknown error

2.] Phone randomly freezes sometimes

3.] Still now RAW support, please sony, just add it (By that i mean full or limited mode of the camera2api)

4.] Both wifi and cellular drop from 3 bars to 1 bar sometimes.

5.] Wifi randomly disconnects.

6.] Overheating issues, possible solution- slow down the cpu clock when it reaches a certain level of degrees. Camera produces heat really quickly.

 (battery wasn't charging, just some regular 1080p30fps filming)

 7.] Camera's color tone goes to greenish in low light however it can be adjusted via brightness and color adjustments (hope it would do that automatically)

8.) Bluetooth issues (added by @Pol63)

10.] Battery percentage sometimes drops in a 2% adjustments(example: instead of going from 25 to 24, it goes from 25 to 23 skipping a percentage)

 9.) Sometimes the mobile data signal just completely drops out (reported by other users)

11.) Not all calls received (reported by other users)

Im glad to see Sony watching this topic

Just bought my XA2(and updated it to the lastes version 50.1 .A.5.59)  and I saw some problems :

1) Focus seems pretty slow in both manual(touch focus) and in superior auto. Not very sow, but not 0.6 sec as advertised.

2) Can't change both ISO and Shuter Speed in the same time. I have to chose one. This is not a manual mode if the app have to set the ISO or SS for me. Other apps from the store allow to change both in the same time.

3) A very fast pop-up like the ones that request permisions appers almost every time I use the phone up and they don't go away for some time. It apears and then disaperas again and again.

4)It happened only once: if the phone is locked and I recive a call it won't show the caller name, even if I have him/her in Contacts. It will only show the number. I mention that I called that person few min before he called me back.

5)No stabilization for taking pictures. Meawhile my older Xperia M2 had some kind of stabilisation for when I wanted to take a photo not record a video. I only see SteadyShoot for videos.

6) Music app doesn't show FLAC files in Albums,Songs, Artists, Genres folders. In order to play a FLAC file I have to use the Folder menu. This while it can play them.

7) DSEE HX missing ? I have a feeling that this is intentional. S630 is close to 810 from Z3+ that have DSEE HX. Also it have a better DPS (? not sure about this one)

2 and 5 are the monst annoying. I can live with the rest.

I just kept checking for software updates on the phone throughout the morning, eventually it popped up.

Yes, but your mobile is different from mine hence why you've received the update and I haven't.

@cobbler I was copying a bunch of new songs that have nothing as metadata :)) . This is not a problem but a mistake from my side.

Actually the version you quoted is currently the latest version for those with Android Oreo 8.0.0 and the XA2 H3113, can't say the same for other phone versions and android systems. 

[cobbler]

Has anyone who has the XA2 H3113 been anywhere near to downloading and installing version 50.1.A.10.40 ?

[davidhozic]

I'm still on 50.1 .A.5.59 version on my H4113... Was anyone else able to update?

[cobbler]

I woke up to the update this morning and my XA2 is now running version 50.1.A.10.40 

[vim_usr]

I just now got the latest update for my unlocked XA2.
