Xperia Z2 :: Lollipop - App Does Not Start And Screen Freezes
May 16, 2014
This might be a bug because I noticed once I plug the charger in my Z2 and try to start an app (say Clash of Clans) a white screen just slides through and nothing happens. I just press the multi tasking button to force-close it. Also tried to force stop the app before relaunching it, same problem. Tried to restart the phone via the power button, however it takes longer time than normal before it boots up again, like 3 to 5 minutes. What could be the cause of this issue?
I have purchased my phone about 2 weeks back, did not face any problems at all. Untill today, I was just messaging with my phone, than decided to run to some other errands. When I got back it had been shut off. When I rebooted it, the red led turns on for a moment and the device starts up, the bar though just stops and freezes a quarter of the way though. Tryed rebooting a couple of times.
Recently the alarm clock function has stopped working. Alarms set but do not start. Since Lollipop 5.1.1 .... They aren't silent, they just fail to start, confirmation of alarm in x amount of mins / hours appears as confirmation of alarm set. Time of alarm trigger set point passes and the alarms do not launch.
When ever I start my camera it locks on the first image when the camera app starts. So, moving around or adjusting to the exact picture you want is impossible, because the screen is frozen with that original image.
Ok, this is my problem, I have protective leather casing (I hope thats how you say it on english) and on Kitkat, I could slide/answer with finger without opening casing, it has a hole in it, so now on 5.1.1. we got "Reject with message" and answering slider is moved up.
Since we cannot disable "Reject with message", is there an application, to show me kitkat style answering screen to place slider exactly where it was on kitkat android, so i can use my casing without problems?
I had the same problem, with clock after upgrading to 5.1.1. and I installed app, to get back clock on location where it was...
Wishing I hadn't bothered with the lollipop update as this has really diminished my phones usage.
I had been able to use the "ok google" voice command to make phone calls, change music etc while using my bluetooth headset connected to my motorbike helmet whilst my phone was in my pocket with the screen off & locked.
Since updating to lollipop I cannot get this to work on the Z3 & I am really disappointed with this.
Reading feature articles regarding loliypop this should work from the lockscreen but it doesn't & I now really wish I hadn't bothered with this gaudy update, for me lollipop is a huge backwards step - not liking it at all.
After upgrading to Lollipop, notifications does not show on the lock screen at all. I use pin-code as security, notifications is set to "Show all notification content".
How can I find following xperia default lollipop lock screen wallpaper in my phone settings? I had this when i updated to lollipop then yesterday I have factory resetted my phone and now i am unable to locate this wallpaper.
Since the Lolliopop update, change the orientation from horizontal to vertical (or vice versa) often results in the no screen rotation i find I have rotate the device at least 180 degrees before it detects anything
Came back home and rebooted it while it was connected to the charger. Now it won't start. It starts to boot, plays the Nokia hand shake video clip then freezes. I've tried rebooting it while the charger is connected, removed the battery, put it back...everything! Seriously. This is a new phone.Language edited by a moderator.Please show some respect not only to Nokia but also to the user(s) who came here seeking a workable solution for the problems with their Nokia devices.
I have sony z3 dual. My screen freezes all the time.what should i do. I applied the last software update today..was so happy that ussd code error got solved. But now this screen error.. So many errors after updates.. When I try to call screen blinks and volume is still very low and..etc ....
With Android 4.4.4 my xperia Z2 screen mirroring was successfull with Samsung Smart TV.Now after Lollipop upgrade when I try screen mirroring I obtain an error message "Mirroring error. The output device doesn't support HDCP...."
I am not able to use my phone lock screen. When I tries to lock then a sign of lock comes and screen freeze. And on pressing back button the phone comes back to the home screen.
From time to time screen WON'T TURN THE KEYBOARD JUST FLASHES AND NOTHING HAPPENS (I am trying over 5 minutes to type here in landscape mode and finally I gave up as the keyboard never shows up) Screen sometimes freezes or gets cropped or sometimes like in the picture (screenshot), tried factory reset and still no use...
I just got the new lumia 950 xl in the mail after i put in my old sd card the phone gets stuck on the boot up is it a phone problem or is the card broken...
I would want to bring an issue to Sony's and all the Z2 users' notice that I am trying to observe a display burn in issue on pressing the power button while unlocking the phone a lot of times and this usually happens when I have set the brightness to adaptive. When I press the power button to unlock the screen, the colors burn for a second and the backlight comes to life with all the real colors the next second.
Its been happening quite a lot now and now I am atleast able to figure out that adaptive brightness is the culprit here. I am not sure is this another bug that sony needs to fix in lollipop or what it is? But just to mention, I have recently clean formatted my phone using the repair phone method on Sony PC companion and it has not worked to solve this issue. Lollipop is seriously making life bitter in a lot of ways than being sweet atleast for Z2 users like me. We would love to see the almost flawless Z2 back as it was on Kitkat 4.4.4.
Just bought a z3 and I've been having some strange issues. For example if I play a YouTube video it loads fine, it starts to play but about 10 secs in the screen freezes yet the audio continues. Other issues also occur when I try to skip parts of a video it just refuses to load. Its occurring throughout all videos on all formats no matter if I go through a browser. Have also tried WiFi versus data no difference.
Sometime My N900 Freezes up. Like if I have to make a phone call or open the application it takes around 2-2.5 mins to start up telephone. Sometime its so embarrassing when someone ask the phone for a call or I'm saving some ones contact. And seriously then N900 to me seems like a brick & feels like to throw it away (I have done this with few Nokias)
I have even tried rebooting but doesn't help. Happens now and then & stays for few days. (specially if I'm not connected to internet). Please don't take me otherwise I love Nokia and N900.

Earlier today after I woke up, I was just gonna check something on my phone, when I was met with several errors saying that this and that programmed had stopped working. I chose the option "ok" on all of them because the other option report would not really get me anywhere. The thing was these errors kept coming repeating themselves (same apps getting errors repeatedly).
So after 10 min of just pressing ok on these errors I decided to reboot my phone, but when I came to the startup it stops/freezes on the SONY EXPERIA display. I can't trun it off with the on/off button, so I searched everywhere on the internet about this issue but none of the classic hold volume down + volume up + on/off button to turn it off gets me past the freeze after it goes off.
I was facing some screen issues with my Xperia x10 mini pro(screen freeze...i had to remove the battery manually, which lead to a phone restart and then the screen worked).But from yesterday, the phone is just not starting up...no Sony Ericson logo...nothing...totally dead?
It has been now 4 months i have this Z2, unitl now everything was working fine, last day the battery drained completely, 0% and it got off. after some time i connected the phone to wall charger using original charger and cable , the screen boots and sony xperia flash and then it get off and then again keeps boot loop,
The RED led comes on and then off , and screen flash SE and keeps looping... i tried making power off holding UP + power nothing works.
i tried connecting to PCC but it also doesnt detect and keep searching phone. i tried repairing using PCC but it doesnt detect phone. i tried holding DOWN volume during power on but green led doesnt come ...
I have a problem where my z3 screen turn black after it show the start logo and can receive calls and answer them but still the screen black all the time. This happen like 30 minutes after i put my phone in water...
I think I have bricked my phone I don't know how. I press the power button on top and get normal buzz then Sony Ericsson in white letters on black background and stays there. Tried reset by turning on top button whilst holding middle button, no good. Tried holding back button whilst plugging in usb charger cable no good (LED wont even come on to indicate charging) tried with sim card in and sim card out, no good. Tried with memory card in and memory card out, no good.
Wanted to load new firmware update from SE support site - before I have updated with no problems held back button whilst plugging in usb cable and released back button when told me to on screen but now it seems there is a different way to update through pc companion now, well it tells me to pull down the notification bar but how can I do this if the phone wont even get to the normal screen with notification bar? How can I go back to the old way of updating firmware using SE update or do I have to do it through companion software now.
Just downloaded lollipop on ATT. The smart screen notification keeps coming on the lock screen. I went to apps, found smart screen and tried to deselect the notification but its greyed out. How to hide this notification from popping up on lock screen?
my screen froze on my 1020. None of the "screen" buttons would work but the physical side buttons would. I rebooted a couple of times (depressing the power and volume down). It worked once but then froze up again. Taking out the sim and putting it back in seems to reboot the phone, which works, sometimes, but freezes up again as soon as the screen lock is activated.
I downloaded an ap-monitoring ap that sends an alarm when aps are operating over a selected percentage of CPU and "Contacts New Storage" is constantly alarming at sometimes over 70%. The main problem is when I am in the Text Messaging screen it completely freezes before I can open a conversation. Also, if I want to start a new text conversation the To: field won't let me copy from my contacts or even type in a number. the phone also freezes when I am trying to look up a number in the contacts to make a call and while I am on a call I can't hit end sometimes. There is also an over-all sluggishness to the phone but I think that is because of the low volume CPU. I am upgraded to 2.1. I have tried to reboot. And reset the phone completely. I wonder if there is a way I can turn off or delete motoblur and just use the android?
Whenever im at the homescreen, and i tilt the phone to the left..it will start switching to another screen..when i do this in the browser/message or something the cursor will start moving which messes everything up..is there a problem with it or is this a setting?
