I recently bought sony xperia u. It turned out that it has multiple problems. The phone is locked to Orange but i have the unlock code. However everytime i turn off the phone, i have to enter the code again. It happens with all other settings, they are not saved after restart. There is more to it, wi-fi can't turn on. When i try to clear the internal memory, nothing happens. Even more, there are pictures and call logs, when deleted, they come back after restart. While working errors about stopped processes appear all the time, and some apps can not be opened for the same reason - errors as "stopped working".. I hope you have some suggestions for repairing my phone :crying:

Try repairing your phone via Sony Pc Companion. Or reset your phone. and if that doesnt work. Bring your phone to the store where you buy it.

It's sounds that you have problem either with the temperatures or with the CPU. Have you overclocked your CPU? What's the history of your phone? Have ever fell? When did it start doing this?
Hi everyone,
i have an xperia p with stock JB on it, i never used a password for the screen lock but half an hour ago i decided to protect it with a password, so i entered it twice to set it up, after that i tried to unlock the phone and it unlocked ... After that whenever i try to unlock it and enter the password it just says sorry try again, like when you type it wrong :S
I donßt know if it is possible that i set it up wrong 2 times and the third time when it unlocked or if it is another problem :/
There is no option "Forgot password" or something to reset it, and whenever i attemt to unlock it after 5,10,15 times i just need to wait :/
I tried turning of the phone, tried also to hold volume up + unlock button till it vibrates 3 times but still the same :/
I need help here please as fast as possible, the phone is like i said on stock .400 JB with the sliding xp kernel 8.1.1, it is ROOTED and the bootloader is unlocked, thanks everyone in advance
P.S. i know i can factory reset it in CWM but that is not an option for me :/

I suppose you are rooted! You could use adb and delete the lockscreen and see if it works as a temporary solution just to enter in the phone. Tell me if it worked

You need android sdk! Why mount usb? Just transfer it in sd card. That should work!

If the phone is turned on and i connect it to the PC it comes in windows explorer but when i open it it is just blank :S Maybe it is so in android before you unlock the phone :/
ok i can install android sdk but i need the exact steps to perform what you have told me, please
Hmm! Strange! Firstly try restarting! Get battery out for 15 minutes then back in and open your phone try again to unlock! It should also fix the not showing up in explorer! If it doesn't then I will help you with adb

I have tried that, in the xperia p the battery can not be removed but when you hold the volume up + unlock button for some seconds it vibrates 3 times and then it is like when you remove the battery ....
and the xperia p shows up in windows explorer but when i open it it doesnßt show the storages :/ Also i donßt know why the usb mount in cwm is not working :/
After i instal the android sdk what else do i need to install? I forgot it because it is a long time since i installed it on my home PC and now that i am not home i need to install everything here on this pc...
hey everyone,
i have managed to unlock my phone
For thoose who have this problem here is what i did :
Because i couldnt transfer any files by any way on my phone (i think it is because it was locked), i went first to cwm, made a nandroid backup, then i did factory reset7wipe data and after that i could open all files and folders in windows
Then i transfered the nandroid backup to my pc, opened the file "data.ext4.tar.a" in 7zip (winrar wont work because you cant delete the files direclty), i went to the subfolder "system" deleted 2 files, i dont know now the exact names but one is something gesture.key and the other is password/something, then you need to open the MD5 file in notepad and delete all the text and save the file, after that i copied the modified backup to my phone, went into cwm did a restore and the phone works without the password lock
Nice! Glad it was fixed
I did updated my phone to ICS the day i bought it.
I used the bluetooth numerous number of times, but never had any problem,
but day b4 yesterday i used the sony factory widget to turn on bluetooth, i dont remember if i did used it before to turn bluetooth on or not.
The phone stopped responding for 2 sec, i thought its normal for android, and then it restarted.Until that point it was normal..
But then its stuck in bootloop.....
i saw various posts and have seen people have got to boot into system once in a while....
but bad for my luck i am trying from 24hrs... but no luck...
out of 10 boots or when battery is removed from phone from long time, phone shows lock screen for a milisecond and goes back to XPERIA logo and same story continues...
FYI: i had previous soft brick when used OTA update but got rid of it using "UnbrickingXperia2011.zip",
Please help me,,, i cant imagine a day without my best phone...

Go to CMW and then wipe catch and dalvik!!...it will boot into device but once you turn on bluetooth again then the whole thing starts up again!...
kernel?and rom?
Go back to GB if this is your everyday phone then i suggest a stable and reliable OS(I've had some bad experiences with ICS and JB but then again those are mine and my own views. Footnote:This was not to down play any devs :angel: )
I have same problem, just wipe dalvik cache and then after reboot install this "bluetooth fix repair" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phk.bluetoothfixrepair
just click everytime before turn on your bluetooth.

download "Sony PC companion" & try to factory reset OR "repair" OR upgrade the phone if you can WITH this software.
also you can try:
call that phone with another phone. & answer. (dont end call!!!!)
press menu button. now you can acess home drawer. go to settings & do a factory reset
Ok thanks I miss understood
Hi today the physical bottons of my Sony Xperia XZ1 stopped working, following the advices given in a post https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/help/power-button-volume-buttons-broken-t2990614 on xda developers for an xz3 I restarted my phone by putting it in ultra stamina and then back in normal mode but I had no benefit from it. Do you have some advice?
Is your device rooted?
No my device is not rooted
I bought my Sony Xperia XZ1 in march 2019 so it is still covered by warranty and I don't want to root it for the moment I'm asking here so maybe I can avoid to stay with out phone for one month by activating the Sony support.
new update now my device is switched of and it doesent wont to restart I tought that the problem of the bottons no more working was software related so I decided to turn my device off and wala It doesent turn on.

Librat I already tried tu use that option, but anyway it asks you to long press the volume down button before and after connecting the phone to the computer and I have done that but it's not working.
Edit: I activated the warranty, thanks to all the ones that tried to help.
I will write what was the problem if they say that to me when it comes back.
