Xperia Pro/Neo/V/L :: Went Blank While Upgrading To ICS?
Aug 25, 2012
I have purchased Neo V this week and have tried to upgrade to ICS using PCC, however midway through the installation I was directed to remove the USB and switch off the phone and then press the 'back' button and then connect the usb cable to PCC. However while doing, a message popped up on PCC that the update is aborted and since then the phone has turned blank.
I have tried several times to restart the phone as well as connect to PCC, however the phone is BLANK.
I m unable to access gallery and music file on my Xperia X10i after upgrading it to 2.3.3. Its giving error as FORCE CLOSING android.process.media as its closed unexpectedly.
I have recently updated my XPERIA X10 version to 2.3.3 frm 2.1. (updated through the sony care) Everything works fine than the SMS. After sending some nos of sms, if i try to send - it will show as "sending". Then if i restart the phone SMS is getting delivered. Does any1 faced this kinda prob here.
I got a SE XPERIA X8 for me and my girlfriend, in a special package from Vodafone Portugal. The site said that the 2.1 Update is available. I start using the phone and got a notification saying the update was available to make. So, I got a PC Companion, did exactly what they said and nothing, it stopped in Step 2, when I push the "Back" button and insert the USB cable. So, I researched and all, used the Update Service, still nothing, removed Anti-Viruses, Firewalls and run the computer in safe mode in networking...and nothing.
I trying to update my software to 2.1 but it doesn't seem to work.I tried with PC Companion as well as Update service.I follow the steps, when it asks to hold 'back' button down and plug in USB, thereafter it doesn't do anything.The window that comes up to give those instructions, diassapears and then the previous window remains but nothing happens.
I recently tryed updating my phone, i had to cancel it as it took along time, i then tryed to put the phone on but now it goes to the point of showing the sony erricson sign and then it comes up with a half blank screen and then a weird pattern on the bottom, then after a few seconds it switches itself off. does anyone know anything i can try. i have taken the battery out, the sim card the memory card and tryed to restart from computer and the mains and its still the same.
i am thinking of upgrading my memory card to something like 16GB.will i be able to just copy all data (including photos, music and apps that i have stored on the memory card) via flie explorer in windows? will this maintain the integirty of the file structure so that when i insert the new memory card, the phone will be oblivious to the fact that there is a new memory card inserted?
So yet another problem surfaced after upgrading my Neo V to ICS. My phone is unable to detect any bluetooth devices. I'm visible to others and they can pair with my phone and transfer files both ways.
I have upgraed my Xperia NEO V to ICS 4.0.4 around one month ago. it is working very fine. UI is very neat and clean. I was using default black theme (Silver). It looked very nice to me. But once i changed the theme to some other, after it when i revrted to same theme (Silver) is is showing wallpaper of sinewaves, this was not there earlier. how to revert to that default black theme again.
I upgraded to lolipop about a month back and my phone got factory reset ( lost all data from my phone , sdcard , sim ) and prompted for new set up installation. This happened while i was out , and my phone was in my pocket once and another time when i was in at work , lost all data both the times and i couldnot find any trace of what triggered the wipe off button on my phone.
I just opened the slot on the side of the phone to see three slots. Also I need to get a 32gb sd card today what type should i get not looking to go ridiculous on price.
Ever since upgrading to 5.0.2 and later, when turning on my (now replaced) Z3 it would show the Sony logo, the encryption/lock animation, ask for my encryption pattern, get to the wavy boot animation screen then restart. After the restart it would go through the same process but after inputting my encryption pattern I'd come across the 'Android is upgrading/starting' screens. Meaning it would take around 10 minutes to just turn on my phone.
I thought it was just a problem that would be fixed with a reset. However, when my device was broken (insured) I was given a completely new one by my carrier which after a few days came across the exact same problem and has been doing it for over a month now. As far as I can tell it only happens after I turn on encryption but that might not be the cause at all.
I have just upgraded my X10 from 1.6 to 2.1, before the upgrade, the Bluetooth was connected to Laptop, PC and Car Hand Free. Since the upgrade, the device is PAIRED but will not connect. the message on the X10 is "paired but not connected"
so now i can no longer copy my pictures or install any .apk files that i have. After upgrading to android 2.1, when i connect the phone via USB cable, it makes connection, then as i want to copy files, it reboots the phone, every time.
I've just upgraded my x10 to 2.1 and all of my contacts are not being restored, where are they? It took 10 minutes to restore the contacts so they must be there somewhere, does anybody know where?I've tried importing them from the memory card in the phonebook options but it says that it can't read the memory card.
I will probably upgrade to a larger capacity SD card and I was wondering what steps I should follow. Nothing in the user guide apart from showing you how to pull out the card.
Can I just take out the card that comes with the phone and put in a new one?Are there some files on the card that comes with the phone that must be copied over?
Before upgrading to 4.0.2.A.0.58 in Xperia Mini pro sk17i there was a very cool feature it used to go to sleep like old TV set. that feature was really cool feature and it used made it special from others.
I have updated my Xperia active to ICS, and the apps are working fine on wifi but when is switch to 3G some of the apps (gmail and twitter) stop connecting to the internet. I don't want to have to reset the phone or repair it through PC companion in order not to lose all my data.
I used to face reboots when my X10 was still on 1.6, but I was ok with them since they happened on certain apps and not that frequent. After upgrading to android 2.1, my phone never stops rebooting. The first reboot occurred when I was using Backup and Restore app to restore my contact, SMS .... I have not even downloaded or set up any application. Then the reboot started to happen whenever I turn on my Wifi. Now whenever I am using my phone it reboots, during calls, searching contacts, installing and playing games. I tried re-installing Android 2.1 several times using PC companion and Sony Ericsson Update Service, but no use. Always the first reboot after a fresh install will be when I am restoring my data. I like the phone and was waiting for android 2.1 since September, and this is what I get, a useless phone where I can barely place a call.
After upgrading using PC Compantion (which was not an upgrade to Android 2.1) and restoring my backup I lost all my notes made with the notes application. Is there any way on retrieving back my valuble notes?
I lost all of my apps during the upgrade and now my phone wont download them again! I click to install them and then its says download starting and then stays like this.
After upgrading my xperia z2 to latest firmware I noticed that the mobile temperature is very high (Getting a lot of alerts via Clean Master and 3rd party apps). Also I noticed that the screen has a print I think its due to high temperature ! I don't know what I have to do!
After i upgraded my mobile from kitkat to lollipop android i charged my mobile .. from 5% to 70 % it took over 6 hours !!!!
Before updating the maximum time was 3hours from 1to 100%. The same cable and charger is present .. Nothing new used !!! What happened after this update ??
i hav upgraded my neo v to ics 4 but after upgrade i m not able to use the front camera for taking pics ? also i m not able to make video call from my phone it self though i can video chat using gtalk and skype
My Xperia Mini reboots itself after being upgraded to ICS 4.0.4.I have already carried out the software repair as suggested in the previous threads using Update Service as well as PC Companion, however the problem still persists.The reboot frequency is not same, sometimes it works for 14 hours and sometimes for 3 hrs or so.
