Xperia C3 / C3 Dual Lollipop Issues and Feedback

[Uliwooly]

This thread is for C3 users to report any bugs after lollipop, before you do so, try the following:

If your battery drain faster or the phone seems slower or apps are crashing, it'll be wise to reinstall lollipop with PCC

even better if you update deleting all the apps and settings, keep in mind that by doing so, you can not use the backup & restore app to restore anything. 

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Because of the limited RAM (1GB) the C3 won't get multi user support

"The reason for that multi user functionality has not been implemented is the amount of RAM (1GB) so i'm afraid this feature is not supported on this phone. "

This thread it's not to ask when is the update going to be released in your country and/or carrier network. you can read about it here

Yes, I am using .472 hongkong firmware now.

I have not tested the camera seriously, but the front and back cam do works fine on low light conditions with no more dark image. Flash light also works fine.

When start taking videos (front or back cam), the same as .470, it zooms a little bit at the beginning. Feature or bug??

Anyway, I uninstalled all third party cam apps and using Sony default cam app now.

This .472 firmware rolled out globally. It seems to be a bug free firmware with the camera.

No multi user support. Icon size is the same as .470.

Screen dims and bright problem still exists, set white balance to (117,117,117) can fix.

I recommend to update it ASAP. It is the best firmware compared with the others.

At this moment, I have no complaint about this firmware. 

Sony fixed the serious front cam bug within one month and then rolled out lollipop globally.

Well done this time!

Camera problem is fixed

[hellohelloworld]

I agree.Camera works fine now. As for the performance, you can choose another cam app.

Is it essential to have .470 build inorder to recieve .472 update notification?
