No idea. I've installed custom roms on a couple of other Android phones in the past & found said roms to be buggy. As the Z3 I paid for almost a year ago is the most I've spent on a phone I didn't want to brick it.

Anyone still using the Z3? It's been my daily driver for over a month and I can't say I've noticed any difference going from an LG G4 to this. In fact, I'd say this is much faster and I am amazed it's still getting updates.

Motorola and Samsung don't support their devices this well after two years.
Has anybody got a case suggestion for the Z3? I've got the Spigen Clear Ultra Hybrid but it's got all scratched up and is going yellow so I'm looking for something new. I'd like decent drop protection and scratch protection but not a massively bulky case.

Tempted to factory reset my phone. Constantly getting notifications about having less than 75% storage free. Pretty much have to run CC cleaner everyday and have transferred photos to SD card already. Something isn't right somewhere as I've got 3.4GB spare.
Can't get rid of the notification without root which I don't trust myself doing.

Has anyone managed to get "trusted devices" set up and working with Android Wear?
I have a Sony SW3 and I wanted to be able to set that up as a trusted device but it's not appearing in the list of available bluetooth devices.

So what are Sony playing at with these OS updates?
Still oving the hardware but getting a bit sick of Sony slacking with the updates! - By the time they get round to releasing Android 6 ver 7 is gunna be due out
Got mine from Carephone Warehouse back when it was launched, completely unbranded and still squat all

It's being drip-fed at the moment, network-branded devices started getting it weeks ago but it seems the unbranded Z3/Z3C are being left until last, which is pathetic really. As soon as the software is handed over to networks to ruin it should be made available for the unbranded devices.
Completely agree - every other manufacturer tends to release for the unbranded devices first - Sony are the opposite!
Thought I'd have an advantage in getting an unbranded handset but this is taking the mick!

Running the Marshmallow Concept on mine - lovely job, it's like having a Sony-made Nexus or something, as it's pretty much devoid of any bloatware.
Getting regular OTA updates on Concept, that add/remove features - but as a daily driver, it's perfect; seems to run a lot better than most of the ROMs I have tried to date.

Won't it have bugs though?
Have they got rid of that compulsory ugly default blue notification bar in official MM?
