E2363 new firmware update 26.1.B.2.102

[garysa]

• I am having E2363 M4 Aqua dual phone(India) and yesterday I got the notification for system update. I have updated successfully to 26.1.B.2.102 new firmware. I have seen only two UI changes till yet one is changed icon for closing all running apps and another one is i call log screen info icon. Does anybody know about other changes.

Mostly bug fixes and lowering of temperature of CPU’s  - better managing of core speed. Now phone is cooler even in intensive use.

Hi any possibility of having tap to wake up screen of on M4 Aqua??

My m4 Aqua has been really slow since 299, the phone lags when unlocking, lags on notifications drop down. Keyboard lags behnd when texting...
Can't scroll facebook or instagram even remotely close to smoothly. The phone can't run lollipop as well as my 2013 devices (Moto G 1st gen and Nexus 7 2013) I can't believe this is an octo core device with 2GB of ram.

Is this everyone's experience on the latest firmware?!? It is laughably bad, never touching Sony mid range ever again if this is the case. (My Z3 on the other hand is wonderful, and no I am not expecting the same performance. I am expecting usable performance for daily tasks which this is failing at.

I'm sorry to hear that, could you try something? reinstall lollipop with PCC, it should smooth things out

I am also experiencing the same problem, I factory resetted the phone, but the performance still lags,

No, after update my phone is OK.

@chayanray

We feel embarassed and ashamed that the new device we purchased peforms like a very old device.
Cannot recommend m4 aqua. Very sad.
