I am having problems with my Z5 compact as well. The battery life is very poor. If it is just in my pocket, it gets red hot and it's not clear what app it is running that is butning through the battery. Switching it off and on again does NOT seem to help. For example, if the phone is flat and I charge it and look at the burn rate, it's about 1% every few minutes....

Since I updated my z5 to Android 7 the built in Mail app crashes. I already tried to remove cache and used memory but no success.

If you all recently upgraded from Android 6 to Android 7, try to reboot your phone in safe mode and check if the issue persist, if the issue is still persistent and accompained by other sympthoms then... try with a Software Repair. 

IF you decide to follow the Software Repair path, be sure to perform a backup first and then the software repair via XC.

i found a way to fix the volume problem, My Z5 Premium has been fixed.

If you're upgrade from Android 6.0 up to Android 7.0, pls use Xperia Companion to make a Software Repair. Before that pls make a backup for everything inside internal storage included you phone contact.

After Software Repair the volume will still the same, low volume(For Me). But after you open Audio settings and open up DSEE HX, the problem fixed.

Dear @SAOKirito,

Software repair did not help me, and you mentioned DSEE HX helped increase volume, but the amplification id the DSEE HX format is only for wired headphones. How did it help you, please response. Eagerly waiting for your reply.

Thanks

I'm having the same issue. 

My wifi and bluetooth wont stay connected.

Has anyone heard if there is a fix or not? Is Sony or Andriod doing something about it?

Im off to the UK tomorrow, and I don't want thousands of $$ worth of fees because my data wont stay connected to the Wifi..... Expressionless_Face
