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

http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-C3-C3-Dual/Want-multi-user-support-for-xperia-c3/m-p/987647/hig...

"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

Still no feedback from Sony Experia Support Team?

WALKMAN is so distinctively SONY. Any valid reason why you guys renamed it to "MUSIC"?

Already tried using PC Companion to repair phone. Camera quality is the same.

No need to annoy the poor mods. The only thing they are allowed to say is to use PC Companion to try and repair, Sony has gave up on trying to fix the C3 camera issue, especially when there are better phones to prioritise.

On android 5.0 my sony c3 have best sound quality through speaker and headset without EQ manipulations , but after update on 5.1 the sound was terrible. missing surround sound, just cut the ear high frequencies. I hope that sony give android 6,0 for my c3 and correct this issue. I like this brand and hope that sony like his fans

Hi guys,

I have been using Xperia C3 Dual since July 2015. I have the updated Kitkat 4.42. Now, I have seen this new update to Android 5.0 (System update 19.3.A.0.472). I have been surfing on the Internet and I have found many users of this update very unhappy. I have 2.6 GB of 5.1 GB internal memory filled up. And my RAM is also pretty good...But now, I want to ask some questions :

1. Is the update any good? Meaning will I be experiencing any RAM issues of some sort?

2. Is the camera issue resolved on the update (as many people were complaining about in the earlier post)?

3. Will I be experiencing some other issues apart from these two above?

1. The RAM for 5.0 is horrible. Update ASAP to 5.1, as it fixes the memory leaks.

2. The camera becomes horrible in 5.0, and slightly horrible in 5.1 (like 5% improved) so stick to KitKat if you don't like the camera issue or you'll regret it for the rest of your phone's life.

3. No other issue as far as I know.
