Screenshot when I got the notification icon and after A17 was installed.
How do I get rid of the time in the system bar? That is new with A17.
Your Xperia wasn't Japanese? How do you get the European version?

I have a European version from work.
My Japanese XQ-GE44 is still on 73.0.A.2.53

What do we think of the new settings interface?
My Whatsapp Widget has stopped working.

woo! excited for android 17 just to try the desktop mode.
Otherwise, doesn't seem like anything mind blowing.
Still waiting for a notification on my japanese model.
anybody try desktop mode yet? gives me a reason to invest in a small-ish external display I can pack with me when necessary.

It’s not something I think I’ll need, but how do I connect the phone to a monitor?
My monitor has inputs for DisplayPort, Mini DisplayPort, and HDMI.
I have no such cables to connect the phone.
