View 8 RepliesI've been using xperia active for 6 months now and it is a very nice phone, but one day the touch screen has become unresponsive.Everytime when I want to click an icon on the screen or type on the on-screen keyboard I would have to tap many times and it is very frustrating.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAfter using the HTC sensation for almost a month. I have observed the following issue which only HTC can answer.
1) Random Reboots
2) Touch Screen unresponsiveness (Rather a dead screen)
Most of the people complain about the touch screen being unresponsive. Whereas for me the touch screen goes dead and I have to do a hard reset every time the screen goes dead.
I developed a problem with my E51. Active standby crashes couple minutes after staring up and becomes unresponsive. When you turn on the phone, active standby looks fine and everything displays normally (e.g. 1 Unread email, meeting at noon, etc.). However, right after that it gets stuck and doesn't update anymore. That means that if you read the email, the notification remains. Or if you get 3 more new emails, it will still display 1 unread email. Same thing with calendar even after the meeting passes, it's not cleared. Not even the next day, and new meetings will not be displayed on active standby until the phone is reboot.
I just realized that even the administrative shortcuts don't work (i.e. *#06# for IMEI or *#0000# for firmware). The phone beeps, but nothing is displayed.Does anyone have a solution to this, yet another, nokia software issue? Cause the latest advice I got when looking for solutions to my constant nokia problems (email crashing, random reboots, etc.) was Go and get a Blackberry I'd rather not go that way, unless I have no other choice.
On Xperia Active: Wi-Fi turned ON but never got to connect to Wi-Fi (both home and public). It's either endlessly "Scanning..." or a loop of "Scanning, Connecting, Disconnected". I just got my unit today and really hasn't done much with it since unboxing. My iPhone connects well to Wi-Fi, placed side-by-side the Xperia Active, at home and in public place.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor the past week i've been facing issue with my touch screen. As in, one column of the screen is unresponsive. I've tried my best to solve it using factory reset through phone and sony pc companion, but went it vein.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI updated my phone to the new version. I noticed afterwards that the screen started becoming less responsive. When I was on a call, the screen would go black, and unresponsive. I couldn't hang up the calls. The phone also started freezing randomly. As I was sitting on my phone checking facebook, the screen cracked. Diagonally on the front. Not all the way through. Not the top of the screen - I can't touch or feel the crack.
-The phone was not hot.
-The phone was not dropped.
-The phone has been in a tech21 Impactology case since day 1 - with a screen protector as well. I don't take the case off.
I had planned on sending my phone for exchange - because there is a bubble/defect in the front facing camera lens. The camera does not take clear pictures due to this. The phone is less than a year old, and I had not managed to get into the bell store yet.
I´ve had this Z3 for about 3 weeks, suddenly the screen got unresponsive, it doesn´t respond at all !!
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Xperia Active is barely 3 weeks old, running Android version: 2.3.4 and latest build: 4.0.2.A.0.62. My screen brightness is kept at maximum, I have never dropped this phone or abused it and rest of it's functions are running fine. Barely a week in, it seemed to have a faintly flickering screen which I thought might have just been my eyes going. This week, the flickering has been replaced by what I would describe as "breathing" - screen brightness goes from max brightness (100%) to gradual dimness (about 78% brightness) to max brightness again - without me touching anything nor am I running out of power. This happens once in a while throught the day, not constantly. Rather alarming as I am getting very attached to this little phone.
I have been checking the SE forums since the 1st week of ownership, the flickering screen problem has been reported occuring to other SE phone models, including the Mini on which the Active has been based. I have wiped all data from my phone and gave it back to the seller for their tech to figure out. My last option if unrepairable, is to ask the seller to replace the unit. what causes the screen brightness to dim then brighten by itself (despite the latest build and software).
Recently my Ray's touchscreen has stopped working completely; the screen its self works, as do the volume and power buttons, but it won't register any touch - I can't even unlock the slider. Tried all of the usual things, recharging, leaving the battery out etc. In the end I used the repair tool which installed ICS, and that actually worked for about two days, but the same problem just came back.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI bought my Z5 less than a month ago, it rarely fell. Today it slipped out of my pocket on a medium hard ground and the screen got cracked from the bottom left and the screen would not respond. I restarted it using the power+up volume button but it still is unresponsive.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have had my Z2 for a while now. I'm very happy with my phone, but there are a few problems that i need fixed or deliver the phone back, because i cant use it like this.
When i use the touch screen either calling a number, writing a text or anything, it aint always so responsive.
If i write a little word like: "Hi, my name is dave" then what i see written is: "H, Myname is dve"
This is VERY hard for me to tolerate right now. I have always had samsung phones and i have never had any issues with the touch, but i wanted to test a Sony phone and i bought this one. My first impression was very good, but now its not that great.
My z3 screen recently cracked from top right corner to bottom left and the top two thirds of the screen is unresponsive to touch. So once I turned it on I cannot enter my PIN.
Can this issue be fixed with a simple screen replacement or is it a deeper issue?
Sometimes when typing I can't use the back/home keys and the screen becomes unresponsive for a few seconds then will work OK for a while then do the same again.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've bought an Xperia Play a few days ago and I noticed something strange. Sometimes a small area on the right side of the screen becomes completely unresponsive. It feels random and usually last for 10-30 seconds. I've tried the Sony Ericsson update service, and did a reset, but it didn't help. I'm thinking about taking the phone back, but the problem is very random and difficult to replicate, so convincing someone, that there is a problem might be difficult.
View 5 Replies View RelatedUpdate to 4.0 ICS two days back as it arrives in India, everthing is seems to me is pretty switching back to apps is far better now from previous version.But the main issue is with games when i started "Angry Birds" is starts off smoothly and all the hardare buttons are working just fine but the touch screen becomes completely unresponsive and even "Temple Run" slows down and touch is just horrible, sometimes it even plays its own moves, haaa..haa, funny.. Same issues a bit of a time for few seconds also goes for "Skater Boy" game too which mostly runs very fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSo i have a 2 month old sony z3 and the power button suddenly became unresponsive, today. Everything else is working fine on the device.
The screen begins to dim and then sleeps but instantly wakes up. So basically the device screen is on all the time now. I think I've tried everything i could.
A little while ago my battery ran out on my Xperia Play and nothing has really worked since then.
1. Backlight does not work, at all.
2. The phone does not detect the battery (though I am able to charge it). I have that 'no battery' indicator on the top of my screen at all times. I have bought a new battery, no change. If I keep it plugged in with/without battery nothing changes.
3. Screen is really laggy now. I have to try to swipe the screen like 18 times before it actually goes through and unlocks. When I try to type, the keys I press get held so all sorts of funny accents are all over the place.
Its not usable currently. If I use the arrow keys to navigate the menus, it works fine. When I tried to take the phone apart I managed to break the LCD screen. Replaced that and now I'm back where I started. Anything I can do? Replace the digitizer?
I have an app, Activity Classifier, that uses the handset accelerometers to provide information on activities and total exercise. It automates exercise tracking, classifies activities by type and quantifies aerobic intensity. Live data streamed from an Xperia Arc using the app is displayed in a blog. While it is possible to use on the Active it is unfortunately more difficult on the Active than the Arc because the Active accelerometers have a fault that is hard to get around. The problem is that the accelerometers sometimes take quite a while to start sampling when either started or the sampling frequency is changed.Occasionally it can take longer than 90 seconds. The problem can be seen with the app Accelerometer Frequency. Switch between sampling frequencies and notice that sometimes it switches instantly and sometimes it doesn't. To minimise battery consumption Activity Classifier acquires data from the accelerometers for 6 seconds out of every 30. If no other app is using the accelerometers they will start and stop every sampling period. On the Active they frequently don't start and the app detects a faulty accelerometer. The app has an option to keep accelerometers on and if this is selected it will work OK but battery consumption goes up a lot. The Active comes with a pedometer app called Walkmate. I can see from the Accelerometer Frequency app that Walkmate keeps the acclerometers running at 50 Hz and running Walkmate at the same time as Activity Classifier will make Activity Classifier work OK as well. Walkmate seems pretty power efficient and uses less than half the power of the market leading pedometer app Accupedo, run in power balanced mode, but it counts a different number of steps.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI wanted to know if there are other methods of waking up screen by not using the power button. I'm afraid that it would damage the power button due to constant pressing. It would be great I think to use the camera button since it is not being used since I just tap the screen to take photos.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy Z2's screen goes black during active calls and does not come back on unless I press the on / off button.
It seems to work fine in bright sun light but not normal conditions.
When the phone screen is locked, after a few minutes or hours in my pocket, the screen will totally be black like it is turned off yet the keys will light up if the unlock button is pressed and therefore can not do anything.
