I have bought a Xperia Mini Pro (sk17i) about two months ago.I was planning to upgrade to ICS but I am affraid that I can regret it. First, I see many people unhappy with some bugs on ICS and, second, I am affraid that I dont like ICS even if it has no bugs. I would like to try it but only if I could downgrade from ICS to GB (as it came when I bought the phone).
So, my question is if I can revert the phone to as it came when I bought it in the case that I upgrade to ICS and dont like it.(I mean a legal and official way to downgrade. Also, taking the phone to a Service Center wont be a solution because, as far as I konw, there is none in Portugal).
You want, that the ownwer of a pro installs PC companion and you animate him to upgrade to 4.o.4.But you don`t allude, the the pro gets much slower, can not be rooted simply as it is possible with android 2.3 !!
I recently upgraded my Xperia Pro to 4.X.X, but I feel my mobile has gone too slow and lots of apps crashing, please guide me how to downgrade it back to the factory original OS.
I have Sony Xperia PRO MK16i which has not been custom modded in any way, not rooted, bootloader not touched in any way bu me. So you can say it is new and original. After using the phone for about 2 weeks, it gave me a notification to update the firmware, so i updated and the new one is 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware version.But the problem i think is battery backup is very very less as compared to on lower firmware. So please tell me the steps to downgrade to FW 4.0.2.A.0.58.
im from india and looking forward to update my SE X-Neo V to ICS 4. this update is yet to come to my country. As of now ive a heard a lot of bad reviews regarding ICS4 on Neo V. But still i want to give it a try just to experience the new UI.
Ive a simple question in mind. If a upgrade to ICS4 is there any way to downgrade to 2.3.4? If there is, will it effect by warranty? and pls let me know if the downgrade is availble through Sony.
i want to downgrade my phone from ICS to Gingerbird. I dont want to take my phone to service center bcos they asked to wait from few days for downgrade process.I am going to other state forsome months in mid of next week . So its not possible to wait for some days to downgrade via service centre and also i dont like this laggy ICS on my phone. I want the steps to downgrade my phone by own and also i dont want to break my warrenty bcos i have more than 8 months of warenty period.Still i m confuse about rooting in phone. Is rooting will affect the warenty? if yes means, without root how can we downgrade?
if I can downgrade android 4.0 to 2.3 in a xperia ray smartphone... Yesterday I did the upgrade in my sister's smartphone. Unfortunatelly she is used to android 2.3 , so she asked me to restore it...I thought that a factory reset would correct it, but no..
I Have installed officially the new anroid 4 ICS on my Xperia Pro and many of my games aren't working and just crash and close the moment i pay the game.i want back my old anroid but i know that i can only do this in the service center.I need to know if there's an other way to downgrade my android with rooting or with flashing or anything else .JUST GIVE ME BACK MY ANDROID i agreed to install android 4 because i was thinking it was better and improved but how i see it causes me much more problems ,even if it's more exciting than the old android i don't need it if it doesn't work right.
Rooting and flashing "might" void your warranty. I'm not responsible if anything happen to your phone (nothing should go wrong,, if something do go wrong, just repeat the whole process).
I've updated to 23.4.A.1.232 ,but I found that it is bad. The previous update (23.4.A.1.200 ) was very good and the phone became smoother and faster. But with the new one it is now bad. I've updated using OTA. My question is : Can I make my phone goes back to the ( 23.4.A.1.200 ) software using PCC or not since I still have the updated files with PCC cause I updated to the 23.4.A.1.200 using PCC? Is this possible or not?
I am using Xperia Mini Pro nd had updated my phn till version 4.0.2.A.0.58 via phone only but this time the new version 4.0.2.A.0.62 can not be updated directly via phone its says to use PC COMPANION, while using PC COMPANION and selcting the update process its prompting to stop WINIT process to start downloading the update.
My SI No. is listed in the site and I got the update notification also. But when I try to update using PC Companion, am getting the below error message.
Recently i update sony xperia mini to android 4.0 battery backup is worst i charged battery full a night at morning it shows 81% battery i a have turned of wifi,gps,data brightness 25% which app can give better battery backup
a few days ago I bought my SE X10 mini pro.I now have a problem with my battery. A few hours ago, my battery level was around 35% A few hours later, it remained at 35% indication.Since this couldn't be correct, i restarted the phone. Now, my battery indication was 100%. False again.I turned the phone off. It wouldn't restart.I tried the 'flash device method' by holding back button and putting in computer USB. No help.I tried SEUS. After that, phone switched back on, with false battery indication back to 100%, which is impossible.I noticed that during all this 'fun stuff', my battery refuses to charge. The LED indicator remains green without flashing, the settings screen doesnt say 'charging'. I know that the phone won't charge below 95% battery.So, the phone thinks the battery is 100%, therefore won't charge, and I'm pretty screwed, especially since I fear that once my battery drops dead, the phone won't be able to charge ever since it will think its 100% full...
I've been having problems with my phone recently, it doesn't recieve some text messages or show my missed calls. A friend suggested that it may just need updating, which made sense because I'd been getting update notifications, just hadn't got round to hooking my ohone up to my laptop. So I did just that and installed the 'companion' but when I try to update, it's asking me to insert a memory card. I've never taken it out! Not once. So i've turned the phone off and on again, as you do.
I just updated my Xperia Mini Pro, but after the update, a) new text messages appear at the bottom of the list of texts (so annoying!) and b) the newest text message does not appear on the list when I reply to it.Is this a bug? I really don't think it's a feature.
I have looked online everywhere for a replacement battery and am unable to find one! Can you please direct me in the correct direction, and the battery required is as on the url supplied [URL] 3.7V 950 mAh Li-Polymer battery Measuring 40 x 35 x 5.5 mm and weighing in at a scant 18 grams?way of China or EU as it has already been four weeks that my battery crashed and would only work if plugged in continuously and now just does not work full stop!
Just wanted to share my experience. I did the update on November 8. I didn't bother to do the backup. The only real important is the contacts and Google have them already. I used the Update Service tool and it worked like a charm. After restarting the phone I had to go through the setup wizard, which by the way is much improved. I now realized that I had lost all my downloaded applications. I downloaded them again from market. Most of them had all the old data, nice. Some games lost all history, no big deal really. My contacts, mail and calendar was downloaded from Google.
I realy like the fact that it is possible to send contacts by SMS. The images from facebook also works very well.
The one thing that I am still not used to is the unlooking. The habbit of pressing the menu button twice is had to kick. I think the new way with the slider is somewhat safer.Now I am waiting 2.2 with tethering. I hope this will be available for X10 mini some time in the future.
