So, nearly every Live with Walkman has the reboot problem. It means that phone constantly reboots when it goes to standby mode, or you're playing crocky 3D games. This problem causes missed calls and sometimes you just have no choice but to take the battery out.
If somebody knows some proved methods to overcome the problem, please share with us.

try to re-install your ROM
@212th,
Have you tried to update or repair the software? Both can be done with PC Companion, www.sonyericsson.com/pccompanion.
If there's no new software available, just unplug the phone and click on the repair option instead. Remember to backup your data before doing this (contacts, messages, calendar etc.).

Hi all!
I'm stealing this thread a bit from rebooting..
It's like this.. I update my wife Live with walkman to the latest "4.0.2.A.0.62 (Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman)"
And after that was done, the phone just refuse to start. When you press the switch the led lamp just blink green a couple of time but the phone wont start!
Any know what to do? I see all over forums that many has this problem..
With regards.
Michael
You have to update your phone to newest firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62, which fixes the reboot issue. This was a software issue, which was fixed by Sony Ericsson.
Download Sony Ericsson Update Service(SEUS), and update via this program. This should fix the problem.
Copy-paste this link to download the Update Service
http://dl-www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/110/61/1309763183/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.7.13.exe
Should also fix the problem of Bjerven, last poster. All instructions are inside the program.
Click Thanks if I helped.

Try using the Update Service(and not PC Companion) to repair your phone software and then try again.
Fixed the link in my first post also.

Hi, Sorry that i forgot to mention that.. Have used Update Service 3 times already And pcc 3 times.. Nothing works.
Ty for your swift response
I havent had any problems with my lww. It didnt even restart by itself automatically since the day i bought it. I must say im very satisfied with this powerful phone
Hey, have you tried flashing any other stock roms using flashtool. Try flashing different firmware versions and see if you can get your phone working again.
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
Hi, no I haven't try any custom rom's in the phone yet. Will try that as a last resort.
With regards.
Michael
No, try stock roms first with different firmware versions before you try custom roms. Is your bootloader unlocked? Try custom roms only if your bootloader is unlocked.

I had never got this problem on my WT19i.
still restarting even after update to .62
Hello,
I am new here and bought the WT19i last march 2012. never had problem until recently (this october). the WT19i is now restarting like hell and cannot even be used. so i searched all over the net and found that i need to upgrade it to .62 (i was on .58 then) so to use the warranty i sent it and they upgraded the firmware to .62. but the problem still exist although you can now use it and the restarting was reduced, but it is still restarting. can anyone help?
it is on firmware .62
BB - 64
not rooted
locked bootloader (although it is unlockable)
can anyone help?
i am planning on installing 4.0.4 .587 but im worried about the performance, battery life and camera might struggle.
also is there really a difference in updating via PCC / SEUS and via flashtool using a stock .587 rom?
not rooted
locked bootloader

I find the .587 more battery efficient than older one. Try it its worth of the upgrade
If the device still under warranty - do send for warranty :good:

i sent it already. previously it was on GB .58. they upgraded it to .62. they say they are using pc companion.
but problem still exists. it still restarts it was just minimized.
on .58 it restarts constantly and unuseable.
on .62 it restarts randomly when taking a picture, calling / receiving a call. sending/receiving SMS.
so now i really plan to upgrade to ICS .587 but am not sure if upgradeing via PC companion and via flashtool has the same effect?
or will i try to flash .62 again using flashtool?
Try the 6.1 branch. Seriously. They fixed most of the bugs reported here.

did u have a chance checking Bravia engine to see if it works or not?
i didn't see any improvements in speed. apps still need seconds and seconds to load up. ill stay with CM9/CM10 till sony releases a proper firmware or jellybean. can't be bothered with their bad software anymore.

Quick question for you guys.
I have a locked BL and I had to use the "Downgrade to GB, root and upgrade" method to get my phone rooted. Is there any way I can apply this update with Flashtools and keep the root but gain the benefits of this Firmware completely without sacrificing anything?
Your help is appreciated.

Ah man, got to go through the whole process again and probably repeat when JB arrives
Anyway I could skip going back down to GB and proceed from ICS onwards and maintain Root, or is that just not possible?

I tried .58 and Mobile Bravia Engine doesn't work for me.
At first, I was using 2.3.7 then I upgraded the phone to .452 using Update Service, but Mobile Bravia Engine was still working.
After I flashed another region of .452, Mobile Bravia Engine never worked. Even for .453, .58.
Only 2.3.7 works.
I have two Xperia S and I'm experiencing the same problem on both Xperia S.

Looks like I'll stick with GB a little longer and wait for the bugs to be ironed out.
I think in general, people do want to update to ICS (for all sorts of reasons). It's the instability and bugs that they don't like. (you will know what I mean if you have owned a LG Optimus 3D)

Hi, guys! I really need your help!
My girfriends Neo crashed while she was on a trip and refused to boot. When it's connected to the charger it shows the Sony logo and stops on that message "the phone has crashed.." and tries to upload the crash files to the SD card but stops at 10% and starts uploading from the beginning, over and over again. When it's not on charger it's totaly dead. So I tried to flash it via flashtool and, judging by the log, everything went just fine, no errors, flashtool recognized the phone in flashmode.. But after it finnished phone still refused to boot.
I couldn't find a solution for this particular problem and, belive me, I searched all over the place. Is there anybody outhere who can help me out?
I think problem was due to hardware failure.
You need to service it.
Locked bl or unlocked?
Sent from my »Neo V«
locked or unlocked booloader.?
If locked:-
u can try restoring from SEMC service.
If unlocked:-
If ur Gf's phone is on a custom ROM .
Do the whole flashing process again .
Including flashing of kernel.
(OR)
Download a good ROM .
And flash the given kernel via fastboot .
Then flash the ROM via cwm.
And BTW the kernel will have a recovery (cwm) inbuilt into the kernel. So u don't have to flash cwm.
Please press 'thanks' if I helped.!

Thank you, guys, for your suggestions. I just wanted you to know how things played out. I flashed it several times but nothing worked so it was off to the service with it. The guy managed to flash it with the SEtool and there was a revelation. Effin thing is an engineering sample! It has a really weird IMEI and it must have overheated and that caused the crash. We're so pissed right now.
EDIT
Sorry, but if it's not asking too much I have one more question I flashed the nightelf kernel but the phone isn't rooted, I thought that wasn't possible? BTW the bootloader is unlocked. Thanks for everything!

If you flashed the night elf kernel correct then the phone must been rooted otherwise something went wrong. Try again or post us a log.
