Does anyone have by any chance the XQ CT72 Taiwan Android 12 firmware for the Xperia 1 lV? or can someone tell me how to get it.
My phone is running Android 13, but sometime ago I downloaded Android 12 from Xperifirm but I can't find it anymore in my PC.
If your phone is running Android 13, I'm afraid downgrading will be impossible so you won't have any use for the firmware.

Yeah, I kinda had that thought about downgrading the firmware, but at this moment I found one or two annoying things about android 13, thanks anyway
What did you not like about 13? I dont like how it doesnt have the wifi 4/5/6 icon on the top anymore, and dsds toggle is now gone, so my phone is stuck on single sim until i probably do a full reset.
I don't like how they are putting more and more crap under the notification/quick settings pull. It became a total mess there now. Settings are now less populated than quick setting. Miss the days when pulling on the left side was doing one thing and pulling on the right was doing another. Which would make a lot of sense if we are talking about gesture navigation that they are forcing.

Notification sounds at least when using this phone don't sound quite right, they are like faded (sound) and low volume, sometimes they are played about half way or other times not even played (yes, I already adjusted the sound levels) this was not happening with android 12, I know that Sony has to come up with a new firmware to fix this bug. What I don't like about this version also is that Wallpaper Material thing, it's just horrible (sorry for being too picky).
anyone can help me also in android 12 firmware file, i need it badly..thanks in advance

Hello!
I recently switched to the m4 from my trusty LG OG, an it is perfect except for one thing... it doesn't ring.
I have tried all Sony-solutions, including PC software repair, etc... but no joy. My wife also has an M4 and has the same problem.
It is worked-around by using a 3rd party lockscreen (I use Hi-Locker), which is awesome.. but not ideal due to security problems, most notably Android Pay.
My question?
Can I replace the lockscreen at the ROM level? Can I replace the basic function with maybe a lockscreen from the Z5?
Unless someone knows how to fix this
I have never compiled my own rom, but I have a reasonable level of tech-savvy. I can flash ROMS and do work in Linux.
I have rooted and unlocked my bootloader, and I am using Stock Sony ROM
I have the latest firmware
Kernel 3.10.49
build 26.1.A.2.99
I have NOT tried using an old firmware- or an alternate ROM. I probably will, but my wife doesn't love the idea for her. Thus, I would like to work out a precision fix.
My thoughts?
Idea 1. find where the stock lockscreen/security module lives.. and try and replace with something from a different phone.
Possible?
Thank you for reading.. I know some other people have these problems, as I read them in threads here.. but I didn't find much in the way of fixing.
just for reference- THIS is the problem.

My phone doesn't ring when it 's locked. If phone is unlocked ringtone rings and vibrates. When it's locked no sound or vibrate. Whatsapp messages vibrate but they have no notification sound. I have checked all the settings, volume is up. Last resort is factory reset but i'm not there yet. I don't wanna lose all my settings.
E: Okay I used Sony PC Companion and used the Fix phone/tablet -thing and it downloaded the firmware and installed it so I think it reset my phone. Still my phone doesn't ring if its locked. If I press the power button when someone is calling to me, I can see the lockscreen notification on the screen but it doesn't ring or vibrate. FFS. Any ideas guys?
E2: I guess I find a solutions. Or a temporary solution. I noticed that if I disabled the screen lock, my phone would ring and vibrate normally. So I decided to try and download "Next" lockscreen app. Guess what. When I use it, my phone works perfectly. I don't know why it stopped ringing because there wasn't any new updates from Sony but it's clearly problem in Sony's software.

I still have the "silent phone" issue with this update. I have to use third party lock screen app. If I use Sony's lock pattern or pin code and use my gf's phone to call my phone: screen doesn't wake, no ringtone can be heard and no vibration. When I press power-button I can see that someone's trying to call me. Anyone else experiencing this problem? I hope you understand what I tried to say, the issue is kinda hard to explain.

Yeah this is a huge problem and we're not the only ones suffering from it. Now I use CM Locker because Next drained my battery. I also noticed that my phone works fine if I boot on safe-mode. Still haven't figured it out which app causes the problem. Gotta wait for the 6.0 update and hope that fixes things.
Same issue with out-of-the box...
Well, have M4 'out of the box' - meaning - no custom software installed, no customized ROM, no custom lock-screen... and well - to make the ring work back I have to restart phone every few days (as soon as realize that it's not working) - oh Sony, what should I say ....
Has anyone tried Android Auto on Realme GT??
Does it not work at all or do you get black screen and stutters?
If it's the latter, turn on 'keep display on while charging' option and it will stop doing that.
App is not crashing at all. But when i connect the usb cable to the car this appears.
Try installing the latest beta released 2 days ago. It allegedly fixed some car connections which have been broken.
Otherwise try getting global rom if possible.
Do you have a apk for the beta?
Do you have a photo of working android auto on global rom so i would not waste effort on converting chinese to global.
I got mine from apkmirror.
Is this global or Chinese version?

Got it working. Worth the Conversation For CN to Global.
Nice, so going from CN to Global ROM solved the problem? I'm on CN and Android Auto isn't working for me either - not sure if it's a head unit or phone issue at this point.

Global version has its own issues too. It freezes if the screen is locked. You have to turn on keep screen on while charging option.
It's the CN rom. I've been there a couple of days ago. The android auto is totally usable on Global rom the head unit screen flickers sometimes but I'm sure android auto will fix that on there future updates.

Thanks. AA has been a real pain so far and the new beta didn't solve things either. I usually have my phone screen on when AA is on, but I'll hold off going to Global ROM for now.

I have extreme flickers, to the point I could get an epilepsy looking at it. That is if it works at all, most of the time the head unit stays black completely and unresponsive to touches.

Appreciate the feedback. Not sure what is causing the issue at this point for the CN ROM but so far I have no issues with anything else, just AA.
I'm not sure but i think its Baidu and Breeno. Because they wont let you use ok "Hey Google" function on the CN rom.
Try reaching Imacaber1 He converts CN to Global via TeamViewer idk if it's free.
Just an update - side loading the latest version of Android Auto now spits out an error where it says the app is not preinstalled.
I assume global ROM has AA right out of the box?
Global version has AA pre-installed yes.
Mine is working but had a roadblock that if phone got locked, car screen was frozen, got a tip and added my car as a trusted device and it resolved freezing issue. There is another option to turn off fingerprint icon display which may help too.
Realme Q3 Pro 5G also suffers from the same problem.
Hello Everyone,
Well to start, after update Sony Xperia 1 III (QX BC-52) to latest system update build number 61.1.A.9.128 I noticed the following couple of problems:
1) When I am in an area where the network coverage is weak, when the phone does not use 3g 4g but only the 2g network, it sometimes happens that the phone cannot make calls as if there is no signal, and also a message for a missed call arrives, or when I someone calls the phone starts ringing and stops after a second, as if someone just called me and hung up.
2) When the mobile data is turned on (wi-fi turned off) and after that it enters the following applications, there is a problem with the interruption of the internet.
1 Music player - play song with max volume level
2.Facebook - start video with sound on max volume level
3. Instagram - start video with sound on max volume level
4 Youtube - start video with sound on max volume level
5. Viber video call
As I wrote at the beginning, I noticed these bugs after the software update. I have been trying to solve this problem for a week in the following ways:
- software reinstallation via Xperia Companion,
- restoring to factory settings,
- resetting network settings, returning apn parameters to factory values,
- despite all that, I took a new sim card, but the problem was still not solved.
After a week of trying to solve this problem, last night I was able to see exactly how this problem occurs, that is, what needs to be done to make this bug appear, and also what needs to be done to prevent this bug from appearing and what the problem is let me know if I do things to fix this problem. This software bug was confirmed by a few more people after the latest system update on a couple of forums (xda developers and reddit xperia. I post this problem on this two sites and get answer.
If you need I can record video and show this bug?
All that needs to be done to detect this bug is the following:
Launch one of the apps I listed above and do the following:
Press the volume up button to the maximum volume level or press and hold once. After that, click a few more times, but you don't have to, and then reduce it by one click or a couple of clicks and repeat this several times. AFTER THAT THE 3G, 4G ICON DISAPPEARS FOR A SECOND, APPEARS AGAIN AND DISAPPEARS AGAIN AND SO MANY TIMES UNTIL WE REDUCE THE VOLUME TO A LITTLE MORE THAN HALF. AT THAT MOMENT WHEN THE 4G ICON DISAPPEARS, DATA TRANSMISSION IS TERMINATED AND THEN THE INTERNET DOESN'T WORK.
I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM FOR THE FIRST TIME WHEN I WAS TALKING ON VIBER ON A VIDEO CALL AND NOT KNOWING WHEN I VOLUME UP ALL THE WAY THE VIDEO CALL CUT OFF, AND THE SAME WHEN I WAS WATCHING A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE AND WHEN I VOLUME IT TO THE MAXIMUM VOLUME LEVEL IN A VERTICAL POSITION THE 4G ICON DISAPPEARS, AND IN A HORIZONTAL POSITION IT PUTS OUT THE MESSAGE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN THERE IS NO INTERNET CONNECTION, AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT WRITES BACK ONLINE. THIS KIND OF NONSENSE AFFECTS THE USER EXPERIENCE A LOT. IMAGINE WHEN YOU ARE WATCHING A VIDEO ON YOUTUBE AND EVERY MOMENT YOUR MOBILE DATA CUT OFF AND DURING A VIDEO CONVERSATION ON VIBER, YOUR VIDEO IS INTERRUPTED. I NOTICED THESE COUPLE OF BUGS, FOUND IN WHICH SITUATIONS THEY APPEAR AND WHAT TO DO TO PREVENT THEM FROM OCCURRING, BUT IN TURNS, SOME OTHER PROBLEM ARISES.

I NOTICED THESE COUPLE OF BUGS, FOUND IN WHICH SITUATIONS THEY APPEAR AND WHAT TO DO TO PREVENT THEM FROM OCCURRING, BUT IN THIS CASE SOME OTHER PROBLEM ARISES. IF YOU SET THE VOLUME ON MAX LEVEL THIS BUG WILL TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE DATA EVERY SECOND, BUT IF YOU SET VOLUME LEVEL ON THE MIDDLE OR LITTLE HIGHER THIS BUG WILL BE GONE.
SONY XPERIA TEAM, I HAVE FOUND THIS BUG, AND RESEARCHED AND SHOW HOW IT AFFECTS THE USER EXPERIENCE, AND IT'S UP TO YOU TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE PHONE COSTS OVER 1000E AND I THINK IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT SUCH PROBLEMS ARE OCCURRING. OTHERWISE, I AM A LONG-TERM SONY USER SINCE THE AGE OF SONY ERICSSON. THANKS A LOT
This sounds like a flaw in RF shielding or power stability. The OS should have hacks to avoid triggering conditions of common defects - stuff like making sure variable digital clocks don't align with the radio signals and pulses of power consumption don't overlap to an overload.
If yours is uncommon you might need a warranty replacement.
My US model has a lot of weird radio, touchscreen, and fingerprint glitches that haven't been completely fixed in updates. Good luck.

One thing with this latest version is that magisk doesn't play nice. I think Google got johnwu to give up the back door to his method. I mean that using the Kirisakura_Sagami_S_2.0 kernel will cause you to bootloop. Until u reflash using new flasher to save your data

Both statements are incorrect. There's no backdoor that magisk is using. Magisk requires bootloader unlock, there's no backdoor needed.
Kernel works also fine on latest firmware on my end.
After updating my Sony Xperia 1 III to the latest software version build number 61.1.A.9.219 all the problems or bugs that I wrote in this post that I published here on XDA developers are resolved. No more problems with mobile data, no more interruptions during phone calls. Sony team, thank you very much for solving these problems that existed in the previous version of the software in the shortest possible time. Thanks to all the people who gave their suggestions on how to solve the problems here.
Hi guys
i have the XQ-CQ54 model with android 12 and i'm experiencing a lot of crashes with Android Auto. Tried everything including factory reset. Problem appears both on USB connection and wireless and appears on all cars i've tried it on (about 4 this far of different brands and models).
Anyone else with this?
might be app related ,5 iv is very new and might need a new android auto update to work better i would advise reporting that to google so they can have that feedback .
I would try it on my car but my infotainment is a little bit older so i cant get to reproduce the same effect.

i've tried various versions of android auto, they all crash... but they don't on my Samsung S20FE with same Android OS version (12)
Latest thing i tried was making sure power management is off for both AA and Spotify. We'll see if that makes a difference...
Yet again s20fe is not new on the market ,i know what you are saying but i still feel bugs might need some time to be polished on 5 iv as they dont have same hardware .
You can try to test it in safe mode...tho i am not sure if android auto is disabled or not in safe mode
tried changing battery management settings for apps, i'll see if that makes a difference.

nope, didn't... still crashes...
which firmware version are you running on the CQ54? and which version of Android Auto?
I have an XQ-CQ72 on 64.0.H.11.9, with Android Auto 8.6.124944 and don't have any issues
I have a 5 iv running Android 12 and Android Auto works flawlessly.
It didn't when I first tried it. My previous phone was a S22 and Android Auto worked flawlessly. On swapping the phone to the 5 iv, Android Auto couldn't hold a connection and produced error messages. After checking all the appropriate settings I couldn't find anything untoward. Past experience has shown at this point try a different usb cable....and with a different cable Android Auto started working and has continued to work flawlessly ever since.
I have come across this "sensitivity" to the usb cable before, with an older Huawei phone.
I would suggest trying a different usb cable, if you haven't already, as it may make a difference.

just updated to android 13 (64.1.x) from 64.0.x firmware - same problem except on the way home it was worse than it has ever been before, crashed / disconnected every 5 minutes and reconnected... extremely annoying.
i have 1 IV and don't have crashes. But generally, not as reliable as it was with my XZ2.
Car is Peugeot 3008 mk2 from 2017. Wireless does not work at all but don't really care about that because it just drains battery instead of charging. Now, charging........sometimes it does not charge despite having AA active and using sat nav. Cable that I used with XZ2 (ugreen) does not work at all for AA. And most of the time not even for data on laptop. Cable from XZ2 works with AA every time, did a 5000km trip a few months back, no issues. Except it does not charge sometimes, LED is on, sign for charging is on but battery charge goes down.
Try cleaning the AA app cache. I had same issues w/ my Pixel after update.

Yeah, I've tried that including completely removing / reinstalling app etc.
Now trying on another phone (yes, another 5 IV) which is set up from scratch without restoring from backup.
I have exactly the same behavior with Xperia 5 IV on both Android 12 and 13. Random crashes. Sometime it works for 1 hour, sometimes 5 minutes. It appears to be worse with Android 13.
I tried changing cable, I even bought a new one... no change.
I don't have AA wireless but it does not appear to be cable related. When the crash occurs, my smartwatch (BT) is disconnected.

Hep, another one here!
i'm trying to remove apps one by one now...
Well, I had 1 hours without any crash... after enabling the debug layer for android auto. I didn't notice any difference or additional info but no crash.
Hey Guys; I am facing the same issue. Just, that it's not related to Android Auto.
Many apps were crashing just randomly.
For example, like Tidal, sometimes it was playing music for hours and sometimes just for a few minutes until it crashed.
So I enabled a feature in developer mode which allows to show a crashing dialog. And just a few moments later the nextcloud app crashed and the error message was something like "out of memory".
Looking in to it => Yep, there it was => the OS is holding almost all of the available memory.
So, you might want to check your memory in Settings => Developer Options => Memory.
And since I almost bricked my device last night, I just flashed the latest 64.1.A.0.857 via newflasher and at the moment (fresh OS) it seems to be better - but I will surley find out these days.
Merry Christmas everyone ...
Hi guys, I had similar problems with Android auto. I did a software repair with Xperia Companion, since then AA works fine.
HI to all. A 13 just landed to EU.

Still nothing for me in Macedonia. But it's good to hear that is landing in EU, so I can expect the update very soon.

Update:
Yesterday I tried million times, now I checked once with my ProtonVPN on Spain server and I got the update.
Фала многу @Shume
I'm little bit disappointed. Some features are missing. Some things have bugs. Angry about 3 apps in row on folders. Sound output hidden in settings, not in volume rocker UI. Aaaa there's a lot of that... One plus taking step back again for me. Next phone not from OnePlus.
An update also came to Serbia, yesterday. Makeup, themes, and colors. double click doesn't work very well to wake up the screen. Draw unlock pattern is a bit wider now, with different inscriptions for charging the battery. Probably a factory reset needs to be done...
Hello! is there a zip package for oxygen os 13 local update?
Just Install vpn then connect to Server in spain.then check update..tada worked like a charm.after Update i did Factory Reset and works fine
Did someone have weird issue with vibration lag ?
After few days of update when i open app little vibrate come after 1-2 seconds
No issues.battery Life better than 12...
Double tap to wake up is worse now. It's as if the phone is in a sleep mode and doesn't wake up immediately, but after 3 or 4 clicks (taps)
