Hi from the Philippines, i have a Sony Z5 Premium, actually, this is the 2nd one, the first purchased froze after a few hour of use, and was hot like a heating pad. It was replaced by the Dealer in Dubai with no problems. Unfortunately, the 2nd one is a problematic  one as well, still hot, battery performance is terrible, especially after the last Android 7 update, now the worst came....

I carry the phone in a propper leather case with a plastic keeper inside, in order to avoid damages. On the occasion of cleaning the case, i removed the phone and found this.... The back cover of the phone delaminated, the front cover is bulge and cracked the Gorilla glas cover... Is that the quality i should expect from a Premium Priced High end Phone????

I'm having the same problems but worse. The phone either shuts down or simply doesn't repond. I need this phone for work and this problem caused a major problem today. I have had 3 Sony phones in succession, mostly because I like the camera. Sadly this will be the last.

is it your network that is stopping Sony from releasing the fix?

After update 

- unable to delete photos

- disconnects from wifi, has to reboot to reconnect. 

- eats battery 

- hot

- slow

I have waited 8 months to update my OS as i know there is always issues, but now i got sick of this nag-screen and how do i regret this choice, my phone has been rendered almost useless. How can i revert to android 6? This at least worked normaly.

There is no update fix and there is no android 8 update...so you have to try with their service...If you find a solution, I would like you to inform me if it's possible!!!If you have any questions feel free to ask me..
