My EE Z5 has now downloaded the Marshmallow update so installing now 
*** Sony Xperia Z5 ***

Just discovered USB OTG on my Z5 is not working since updating to Marshmallow. Rarely use it but I'm sure it was working before update.
Anyone else got the same issue?
The USB OTG flash disk is working on tablet & other phone fine

Only issue I have found so far is that WiFi calling appears broken 
They can hear me but I cant hear anything

Picked up my Z5 Dual today in green, love it!
Question...I'm tempted to see about flashing it to 'stock' android to wipe as much of the Sony rubbish off as possible. Has anyone done this? thoughts?
EDIT: Scrap that. Rather than messing around with custom roms etc...I just need a good uninstaller to remove the Sony apps and also stop them from being reinstalled, recommendations?

Not sure if you can automate uninstalling them, i've resorted to going into Settings/Apps and for example File Commander, which I didn't ask for. Untick show notifications then disable it.

So the fingerprint scanner is giving me grief. I've tried restarting the phone. Deleted fingerprints and re added them. Still not recognising.
Anyone else experienced similar?

Bah, headphone jack has given up. Done all the software things, put soundabout on. If I hold the jack in the right place it works, so looks like hardware, not just software.
Bit annoying, Bought it a few months old second hand and not had it myself for a year yet. Guess gaming and the phone getting hot has finally killed it?

Sony fixed my broken headphone jack. Warranty was done by serial - they never asked for the receipt.

It's a feature. You're now up to the level of iPhone and U11 users.

My Z5 is giving me some grief at the moment... it will make outgoing calls and texts but wont allow incoming 2 sim swaps later and now back to square one nothing incoming
Was it a year or two year warranty?

Two

Nope, sent mine off to get the camera fixed and they wouldn't do it cause the screen was slightly deformed. Charged me £90 to get that fixed, in order for them to do the camera. I was pretty ****** but they replaced nearly everything in the phone (battery, case, camera, screen, mobo etc) so I can't be too annoyed.

Yeah, they didn't tell me much the first time I sent mine in. However you'll get a note in the package telling you what work has been done and what has been replaced.
