Xperia PLAY :: Unlock The Screen Using Gaming Buttons?
Sep 6, 2010
I woke up this morning to find that the screen on my Xperia Play had stopped working. However, after a couple of restarts it began working again.
Now when the screen stopped working I began to panic as I am awaiting a phone call about my start date for a new job.
So when the phone screen was temporarily not working, I slid out the game pad to see if it was possible to unlock the phone and enter the pin unlock for my sim card by using the PS keys and dPad.
Successfully, by pressing a combination of the MENU button and another button I actually got to the screen which required me to enter my pin - from which I could have done successfully using the dPad and 'x' button.
Unfortunately, before I got to enter my pin the screen locked and I didn't quite catch the key combination in order to get back to the same pin unlock screen.
ive bought Xperia Game cus there had a joystick and look good for gaming ... and when im playing to ( Eternal Legacy HD or Asphalt 6 HD ... ) and more game that have good grafic , the phone can restart alone between 5 min - 1 hour ... also restarting from playing some lower grafic like Spectral soul and some other .. they are all compatible with xperia play and ive bought those game ( Android market or Gameloft ) ive also read some ppl have this bug from playing Bruce Lee !!! . do the Xperia play will have update to fix that soon ?
My xperia play had just been repaired and I left in in my bag for 2 hours just now. I can't unlock my phone, it says safe mode and only the buttons are working. The screen is not responding to my touch.
if there's a way to keep the music player going in the background while I'm playing a game. I use Google'a music app, was kind of disappointed with the stock music player. Does anyone know if there's a setting somewhere that I'm missing, either in Google music, on the phone, or in the game?
while im playing "distinia" sometimes there is a part where there is white part on the right side of the screen, if the camera vibrates bec of the animation
When ever I try to unlock (dragging lock button from left to right) , I am unable to unlock in one go. It is taking multiple attemts to unlock my phone.I also observed that when I get to call, to cancel dragging the icon from right to left this is required multiple attempts.i.e many time dragging icon from right to left.
I don't know whether it is software problem or hardware. I have tried the repair operation also. my xperia neo is uptodate and running 2.3.4 os.I also tried to un install apps but I couldn't find any difference.Also once I unlock, those 5 screens, I can scroll inbetween and can touch home button. But when I long press on the screen to add widget/folder I am unable to do it as soon as I unlock phone. It is taking some time to respond.
As I purchased this phone in UK and using it in India, I am not sure how much service I can get in india from SE.I have bill for the mobile too.in other posts somebody told me to remove yahoo and i did the same but didn't find any difference.in short the touch scence is not responsive during unlock and for a while once get the home screen. I also installed andvance task killer app and killing apps frequently that also not making any help.
I phone recently developed a problem with touch screen becomming completely unresponsive. I googled and found its a common fault with Sony Handsets. Now let me explain the list of tasks i did in order to get it back to work but invane 1- Tested a new touchpad 2- Software update 3- Software downgrade 4- Deassembling and reassembling
i think i didn't miss anything but still its not responsive. It does sometimes response but if i do restart battery pull, open back case its unresponsive again. According to my knowledge its not a hardware issue as if its hardware and need new one i already tried that its software issue and it seems that entire screen is selected when i try to neviggate through the gaming keys. I am still unable to belive that sony ericsson has still not provided any fix for the issue. If anyone has any idea or any third party software for screen please advise.
First post here. I just bought my z2 and I absolutely love it but am deeply disheartened and concerned by one problem I'm having which pretty much is the most important thing I need.
Almost every time I make a call - the mute, speaker, end call or other buttons get pressed while I'm talking. I've tried to make sure that the proximity sensor is covered by my ear and it still happens. I've also run the diagnostics and although they pass I've noticed that the vibration for the proximity sensor test does not always stay on if I put the phone up against my ear and move it around. Eventually the vibration turns off and some on screen buttons are pressed.
You know in android system there is 3 main buttons : back, home & option. These buttons work a lot especially back button. Android 4 has these buttons bar layout at the bottom of screen (virtual in screen) but this feature is not available in neo L android 4.0.4! Neo L has physical buttons but if sony add that virtual buttons bar layout in neo L that has big screen it can save our neo L physical keys and we have greater experience with neo L. Its a very good phone with best brand(Sony). But virtual android buttons in screen is better than physical buttons that may fails. Now neo L has 4.1 build version software and sony can add this feature in future release of software update for neo L.
I have Z2 with latest 5.0 build (28). 1-2 days since i updated my phone, camera app stopped working. I open it and it's just a black screen with control buttons. It doesn't make pictures. I tried to reset my phone with PCC, but problem stayed. I downloaded other camera apps from Play Market and they also didn't work, then i turned off stock camera app (in settings) and other camera apps worked fine. When i turn stock camera app back it works for some hours and then again black screen.
how i can fix my blackberry curve 8520 or is it to be deemed unfixable?
I have been having difficulties unlocking the handset and have to hold the mute button for a long period of time, however when i came to use it the other day even this didnt work and when i managed to get it to work but it automatically locked after only a few seconds.
when i can get my phone to work the majority of the buttons fail to work. The warranty ran out on it 5 months ago and it is on pay as you go, but would carphone warehouse (where i brought the phone from)
I restored my iPhone from the most previous backup (phone was locked and the buttons were frozen, wasn't able to unlock it!) and I lost all my pictures. Is there anyway tonged my pictures back or anyway to prevent this from happening in the future?
Normally my phone xperia x10 unlock screen is left to right. But suddenly the unlock screen become right to left. I don't know where to set this setting.
I am facing a serious issue with my sony xperia neo v. Seldoms mobile screen does not respond when trying to unlock. The screen soes not change from blank sreen. Please suggest a better resolution for this issue. I face this issue four to five times in a day and it is very frustrating. Does Sony provide a replacement as my mobile is still in warranty period?
any time i unlock my phone screen it takes uptoo a minute for any of my apps to connect to the internet, facebook, snapchat, outlook all seem to be effected. if i use the phone for a prolonged time i often get a loss of data.
So I woke up this morning and my Xperia Play is stuck in Landscape and it won't rotate back to potrait. I've tried the old turn off and back on again as well as removed the battery...
when i move the door of the gamepad after about 4 mm of moving it the screen of the phone goes black but the touch is still working but the screen is black and to make the light on i have to push the power button twice as i make the phone off and then on !!. and also if i opened the door and then close it at the samr point the same thing happen i download a fesh software from the sony pc companion but the problem is the same?
I only have purchased songs on my iPhone. The music player has jammed--won't play anything. I can see the songs but the play/pause button does nothing. I can advance to the next song (still doesn't play) but I can't move back to the previous song. I've tried resetting to no avail.
Is there any way or any app to "unlock" the phone using touchscreen only. i dont want to use the key lock button which is at the top of phone to lock the phone. i found one app in the market to lock the phone using touch screen.
my phone was working perfectly fine until i upgraded it to ICS. Now i'm not able to unlock my phone at all at certain times. If i try to unlock i see a blank screen with the backlight on. Unable to access homescreen at all. If i leave the phone for sometime and then if i try unlocking again it works fine. Having this problem with latest version available in my country (4.0.4). I tried reinstalling the firmware using update service still no effect.
