I just did my firmware update in South Africa on my experia Z3 and see there in no silent setting, how long before we will get lollipop 5.1

Use Volume Down or Volume Up butoons to access sound options:

- Silent

- Priority (customizable in settings)

- Sound

- Vibrate (press on BELL icon)

The missing volume shortcut was the first annoying change I noticed & complained about to Sony after the Lollipop update. It was on MY home screen for a reason. I don't like the way I am now forced to adapt to the changes. I liked My phone the way I adapted it. for MY personal use. I bought my Z2 because I liked it's features & now they're mostly gone! What right do they have to change MY settings & take away favourite,much used shortcuts? OUR choices are being taken & replaced with THEIR demands. If they had given me the phone I wouldn't mind but MY money paid for it. What if I were to tell them their favourite white wine must now be a vinegary red after they'd paid?!! I'd be sacked! I am also annoyed that I can't delete multiple photos from the album app. 1 by 1? I ask you? I seriously don't have the time or patients for that...I am very disappointed with Sony & very sorry I put my trust in them to improve MY/THEIR device.

Hi all,

unfortunately I don´t get the sound options after pressing the volume button on my Xperia Z. Does somebody have the same problem?

Have a nice day.

Hi, i'm a very big media consumer on my phone, and after the lollipop update i faced a very bad experience, the "silence" "vibration" "sound" buttons that were in the prompt that appeared after pushing the power button for a while are no more, and the problem is that whenever i'm listening to music i have to take out my phone, turn it on, and go to settings just to make it on vibration mode, which's kind of a hassle, is there any way i don't know about to do that with a shortcut ? If not, that's a shameful loss for android, i would like to have such buttons back into xperia devices.

Hey Grey, me neither. Did you ever find a solution to this problem?
