I've had the device a little less than a week and while I love the buid of the device the lags, screen sensitivity issues and freezes are driving me crazy. Are others experiencing the issues? Thus one is definitely going back.
Occasional freeze when trying to unlock the screen. No lag issues though.

The occasional "freeze" when trying to unlock the screen is not a freeze, it's the touchscreen not responding to touches.
Just had it off for a little bit more than a week (holidays and illness) and just hooked it up to a charger and turned it on. Wow, it was unusable. Took me like 20 times to enter my pattern and then the touchscreen was not responding what so ever. This is insane. After 10mins i managed to get to the ota screen to check if there is an update, sadly i'm already on the latest, is there a way to "fix" the touchscreen respond?
Did you already do a factory reset?
If that doesn't help, return it.
I must be lucky, since I don't those touch problems which so many in here seems to experience. That is, except during the very first time I set it up. It was really bad, but never showed since. My guess was/is that some storage/update/cloud initialization had been going on in the background.

Did it work OK when it wasn't on the charger?
I've had various phones which disliked certain USB chargers - if I was charging with those chargers, the screen was unusable.

Thanks, no i did not root it yet, have it quiet new and though i waste watching the free movie offered by sony first before i root it.
Also i figured i'll wait till there is a clean rom out, without the sony stuff. But probably gonna root it over the weekend, to freeze some apps etc. :good:
I'm probably going to return it and wait until the bugs have been fixed or until CyanogenMod picks it up. Super disappointed that Sony just can't seem to get their act together.

I have been struggling with the same decision. I really like the device, but the screen freezes are pissing me off, especially in comparison to my N10, with no screen freezes. After contacting Sony, I used the PC Software Companion to wipe the tablet clean and reset everything, but the tablet performs only marginally better, and I don't even use the Stamina Mode. I really want to wait for Sony to send out a software update to make this device zoom.

Try swiping left and right if your device freezes. With my Z2 (third defect LTE one in a row), this quite often solves the problem for a while.
Switching off the screen for a second, then back on also helps in many situations.

Honestly, what bothers me more than anything is the fact that they couldn't get it working flawless on day 1 considering they took 6 months to release it stateside. Coupled with the fact that this is the wifi version and has zero carrier specific apps that could slow it down, this just leaves me confused and as you said, pissed. CyanogenMod needs to pick this up.
Last night I decided that I was going to send my Z2 back to Sony and request a refund. Any screen freezes on a new device that is as expensive as this was getting to me. This morning I decide to play a few rounds of Dead Trigger 2 on my Nexus 10. I never had a problem with gameplay on the N10, that is until today after being accustomed to my Z10. They're not even close in performance or color saturation. Now, as fare as the speakers are concerned, the N10 is better, hands down.
I guess I can live with the screen issues which really are not that bad. I will be keeping my Z2, at least until the LG G Pad 10.1 is available. Hopefully the freeze issues are fixed soon.

Has anyone rooted their non-LTE version yet?
I updated mine(SGP511) to 17.1.1.A.0.402 and it solved the touch screen lag problems for me wifi only version US.
It does require installing the companion app on a computer to do the update, if you haven't received anything OTA.

well i know i read somewhere the phone tends to be slow to wake up, has anyone encountered other issues, mine just feels sluggish everytime i wake it up, it takes longer than it used to and once it does it takes it a second or two to become snappy, didnt happen like this before the OTA.
oh don't tell me that. my phone is flashing the update as I was reading this...
Lol I knew there was a reason not to take the ota I told myself to wait until the xda community had a look at it

Weird. I flashed Juggs update and haven't experienced that issue.
Does changing the battery to performance making any difference?
So far, no silent calls, so that's great! The phone seems pretty solid now. But I' still probably going to trade it for a Epic 4G Touch
I do find it a little slower when unlocking but other than that the OTA update addressed every problem I had.
My phone is now extremely sluggish when waking up after the update.
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
I too have noticed the phone is a little slower at first but I can live with that. My biggest problem since the update is my battery life seems to have deteriorated. When I look to see battery usage now phone idle is always over 50%. I've tweaked everything I know to tweak and it won't improve. The battery life was what I loved the most about this phone and since the update it's definitely not as good as before.
Dont know if this is due to the OTA update but I have had my phone "turn off" twice. I went to use it and the phone wouldnt turn back on. I held the porwe button nothing pushed it many times... Nothing. So i thought the battery must been dead and plugged in and said it had 60% power and then i was able to power back on. And then it did it all again when i had 90% power. Weird. Either way im going to be taking it back to BB and getting a new one.

Yes i also have slow on wake and still silent call issues. I exchanged the phone 2 days ago, did the update in the store and my 3rd call had the silent bug. I hope there is a fix because i really do like this phone. Only 3 days left before my 30 days. Decisions decisions...
I'm getting silent calls still even after the update

My issue has been happening for awhile but its gotten a lot worse lately.
My screen, when on, will randomly start "touching" places. When this happens, it appears as if a phantom finger is pressing various things and it is causing a lot of issues. Also when this happens, the 4 buttons on the bottom stop responding. i have to use the power switch to turn the screen off and then back on again.
any thoughts on how I might be able to fix this?

Are you rooted/flashed a rom? If you are you should definitely wipe everything a few times and flash a new rom. If you aren't I would perform a factory reset.

It has happened across multiple roms. I will try again though.
If nothing else works, try SGS Screen Booster. My Rez has been having the same problem recently, and it's seemed to help quite a bit.
The right below the status bar, there seems to be a gap with what is and what isn't working properly, so I set everything to the max and lowered the response time to be as quick as possible.

Happens to me also. Do you have a screen protector maybe? That is what I always thought my problem was.
Certain chargers or USB cords with grounding issues can cause these problems. Does it only happen when it's plugged in?
I had one were it would cause the same issue when plugged into the laptop, but only while the laptop was plugged into the wall.

Eh, mine does this as well. It's been happening more often in the colder weather I get into. So I just turn off the screen and let it sit in my pocket for a minute so the screen can warm up, and then it works. I swear, these Asurion replacements suck.
I'm having the same issues with my Rezound. I also have a lot of issues with the soft keys not working now ( Far more often than the random screen touch issue ). They won't respond at all or they will start randomly start clicking. I also notice that when they stop responding usually I can put the phone to sleep, then wake it back up right away and they will start working about 10-15 seconds later. Even when they are working I often have to hit them multiple times before it takes. This happened with the stock rom. It started happening shortly after I received the most recent OTA update, however I assume that is simply a coincidence and nothing to do with the update. I flashed the phone recently with CM10 hoping it was an issue with the ROM itself but the problem persists. This is a shame too because other than the screen issue it seems that CM10 would have given the phone a new life as it looks and runs so smooth on the hardware. I highly doubt I will ever buy an HTC again, we have had two of them and they both start having hardware issues much faster than they should for what they cost.
Im using the unofficial cm10.1 build with no mods. i went through and wiped everything twice. cache, system, boot, battery settings, rotation settings. i flashed the latest at the time (build from 4/3/13) and now my phone is working properly again. no more hanging up on people caue it preses by itself, no more emergency dialing.
hope that helps anyone who might have the same issue.

I bought two Nexus 10 when they were first released and I've scrapped one because the battery failed and a huge screen area went yellow and I was getting multiple annoying random reboots every day.
Now my second Nexus 10 is going the same way.
What a load of crap this tablet is, I'm not surprised Google is not updating it for no-one would buy it.
That's interesting....I have a few mates who have the Nexus 10 and none of them have had those problems. They have had theirs since they were released...Maybe you dropped them once?
You just might be an isolated incident. Another mate if mine has the N7 but the only issue is the charger port issue that many other people have.
I have a N4 and the only issue I have is that the camera stops working at times and to fix that I just restart the phone.

No misuse at all and another annoying bug is the way it deletes part of the pin number after a reboot so you have to re-do the pin number.

I am sorry to hear you are having troubles with both N10s. I would surely have the same frustrations were I you.
We have two N10s, his and hers, for about a year and half. They are used for several hours every day, because we are retired and have lots of time to be online or reading books. My wife's N10 runs Purity ROM and is rock solid for her word games and eBay, facebook, shopping, email and all the other stuff. Mine is rock solid for banking, bill pay, surfing and videos. It usually runs CM11, but could be temporarily running something else while playing around with ROMs. We charge our tablets every day, and try never to get below 50% before plugging in.
I do plan to buy at least one N9 when released, not out of need, but, instead, out of curiosity for an Android 3x4 screen format. Fun times ahead for us Nexus fans.

Don't forget nexus 10 is a two years old tablet but it was a gem in its own time. After 2 years we still don't have any tablets with a higher screen resolution than nexus 10. Which makes it perfect for media consumption. I think only galaxy tab s has a better screen nowadays.
It has had its own shortcommings but most of them are by rectified by software updates, like memory leaks or random reboots.
I have purity ROM on my nexus 10 and I have zero reboots or problems. Everything works like a charm after 2 years of heavy usage. The only thing that I envy now is a super amoled screen on my tablet.

I agree, the Nexus Tablet line was literally one of the biggest POS. I owned a Nexus 7 tablet for about six months and never dropped it or anything. The problem started out with ghosting/ghost input touches then later on progressed to half the touch screen not working at all... Although I initially loved it literally became one the biggest let downs ever...
On top of this, I had also read many articles on XDA and elsewhere of people with the same problem trying to send their tablet's in to ASUS for the warranty and they basically just sent the tablets back to them as is with a software upgrade, which didn't help at all since it was a hardware problem.

Mine had worked flawlessly since the week it was released.
I got mine when they released the tablet and I've never had one problem with it.
I got mine first month of release and it was great for about a year. It's still good now but my siblings abused it so now the battery drains quick (used to last all day and some of the next now I'm lucky if it reaches the end of the day) and speakers are chipping paint.
Other than that there no issues though and those are pretty much our fault. The battery problem could be from not using official charger or just charging all night

I bought my shortly after release and have not experienced any problems with it. I have almost exclusively been using the Franco kernel with AOKP. I use it every day in place of my laptop. I can watch movies, youtube, internet, social media, etc. all day on a single charge.
I bought mine around feb/mar 2013.
It's a piece of crap.
Yellow/brownish tint on the screen that is getting bigger as we speak, battery shutdown at 30% (workarounds exist!), overheating, slow response, slow R/W speeds, etc. I have to do a factory reset pretty much every month.
On top of that: Gergle being a b*tch about it because they've deactivated my account (inactivity). Really funny guys.
I don't know what to do.
I guess I'll throw it away, as soon as I have something new. I'll never buy anything touched by Samsung again. No phone, tablet, TV, you name it. The only thing they're good as is NAND.

The problem is: I force the system NOT to shutdown. The battery stays at 0%, but the device keeps running.
This is dangerous. When the CPU ramps up and the voltage is too low it'll cause instability, which you can see by the backlight flickering, the speakers making weird noises, all that bad stuff.
I am not sure how this affects the battery (or the device) physically, since Li-Ion is not very happy when it's "too" discharged. But it'll wear out the battery even faster, I fear. (This is unfunded. I have not enough knowledge about electronics that advanced. But I've read it somewhere. :silly
But, that out of the way: There's an xposed module. I DO NOT recommend using it. It's called DisableCriticalBatteryShutdown, by the user zst123.
You WILL run into fc's of the systemui when plugging the device back in. But the process should restart by itself.
There's a thread on XDA. AGAIN, I DO NOT RECOMMEND USING THIS MODULE.
I got my Nexus 10 shortly after they were released, and though I love it because it's screen is gorgeous and it has front-facing speakers, it is really buggy, and has been since day one.
It freezes and restarts on me probably daily, and always has since it was brand new. In the early days it always happened while using Chrome, and at the time I remember reading that it was a Chrome-specific issue, so I just switched to Firefox in hopes of a better experience.
It was better, for the most part, but eventually it started freezing at other times as well. I still like the tablet, but it definitely has never been a great performer.
I got my Nexus 10 at release, after 1.5 months of Google not shipping it, losing it, telling me that it was coming, etc... Worst customer experience I ever had. I was on the phone with them daily.
When I finally got it it worked fine for a little while but as I put more and more on it and actually tried to use it to stream video, I would get random reboots, freezing, etc...
I've tried relentlessly to talk my wife into letting me unlock it and put a custom ROM on it hoping it would fix things but she would never let me. Now that it's almost two years old, and I barely use it do to all the reboots, etc..., she might finally let me unlock it.
I was really looking forward to getting this tablet when they announced it but with all the problems, for me it pretty much became a $500 paperweight. I use my GS4 so much more than I every used this tablet, even when I'm home.

I have 2 Nex10's. Both bought at launch. One is stable as a rock (thank god it's the wife's or else) but mine is a bit of a dud. Instabilities and crashes since day one.
Not a day goes by that I don't have to do the 3 finger salute to restart because it has frozen solid.
Tried factory resetting, flashed factory images whenever a new one was around and tried different kernels. No change whatsoever.
I believe Samsung's soc is the culprit here, which was also the issue with the chrome chrashes in the early days (GPU drivers that fixed the issue where delayed by Samsung, which was silly as it's a stock Mali GPU).
Never mind the USB connectivity issues that only Samsung devices do. I had no problem connecting any of my other tablets and phones (Nexus 7, 4, 5, Xperia Z, various HTCs, even Nokia Lumias) to my PC. The Nex10? No dice. I had to manually remove any and all USB drivers, do 3 rain dances and pray to the lord of shadows before I got it to work.
So as many of you noticed, our 360 2nd gen lags like crazy and is not fluid when always on screen is on.
what i've noticed is that it did this a lot when my note 4 was on 5.0.1...but then i downgraded to 4.4.4 kitkat, and it stopped. for like a full week of always on screen, my 360 never lagged when it was on. it was always just as fluid with that nice 60fps animation style.
then i put 5.0.1 back, and bam, lag city. now i just got the 5.1.1 update for it, so i'll see if it lags, but yeah, it's very interesting that the android version was what was causing lag for me anyway.
anyone else's thoughts?
Mine lags regardless.
I am quite disappointed with my moto 360 because of the lag. I chose the 360 over the Gear S2 because of Android wear figuring that there would be more apps and watch faces available for android wear. But now im starting to wish I had gone with the Gear. Next to other smart watches my Moto looks very jerky. Ive seen 1st generation smart watches with a lot less lag. Really hope Moto can fix this soon or I'm gonna sell it and get a Gear
so, mine isn't lagging on always on screen on 5.1.1. it did for like an hour. then after doing theatre mode a few times, it stopped. now it's as smooth as always with always on screen. weird.

dude, I felt the same way last year. last January android wear didn't seem too refined so i went with the gear 2. it was great, but tizen wasn't that smooth either. it worked well though. then I flashed wear to it and liked it a lot so i got the 360. I don't use the gear as much anymore.

Reports like this make me still stay away from the M360 even though I really like how it looks and the basic idea of it.
Seems like Smartwatches are still in kindergarden. Either looking like horrible shoeboxes or are lagging like crazy.
Thought I'd really like the idea of developing a kernel for it and see if it could be improved or not.

there has to be, because it's a problem where it's a power saving mode that's kicked in 100% of the time with always on screen, but turning theatre mode on and off will fix it. for example, i can go forever without lagging with always on screen, but it seems if i disconnect from phone, like i walk away, then come back, and i get a notification, that might send it into that lag mode. then i have to turn theater mode on then off for it to be fine again. it's really weird. certain things trigger it.
Im finding that even doing the theatre mode toggle isn't fixing it now. Gonna have to try a factory reset, really not happy with my m360 2015

I totally agree with Chap on Reddit. After unistalling MotoBody from the pone and disabling Motobody on watch as well, then rebooting. Watch's behavior is completely different. Now is faster tan before, zero lags and everything work fine.
Thanks Chap
I'm gonna try to disable it and enable google fit.. just sucks you need fit on watch and phone to get heart rate working.. whereas you don't need body on phone for it to work.

lol nope doesn't work at all. once it goes into ambient mode and comes back, the lag returns. I deactivated body and used fit and within 5 minutes it lagged out like crazy again! oh well, back to moto body.

I don't think that it's a memory leak. It should be a bug in the power saving routine in the kernel, because it totally makes sense to lower the refresh rate on ambient mode. It looks like it sometimes doesn't ramp up the refresh rate again when the screen goes on. We just can hope that it's fixed with the marshmallow ota or we are doomed as Moto (Lenovo) doesn't care.

Changelog from Motorola for incoming update:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/110088/p/2815,9542
Of particular interest under 'Performance Improvements':
"Fix for the 30 fps display issue that occurred when the watch exited the always-on screen mode"
Great find. :good: So they cared and have just not responded with the correct answer: "It will be fixed with an upcoming update". They should work at their communication with their customers
holy crap awesome find! this is great. I'm so glad they finally fixed the bug!
anyone get the update yet?

So I've been experiencing the same issue disucussed here on reddit
https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyXperia/comments/un62zy
Basically, after the phone has been one for a few hours to a day or so, the figerprint senor essentially acts like it doesnt exist. Even the fingerprint manager disapears from the system menues. Restarting the phone usually brings it back, but not always. I've seen some people attribute it to heat, but my phone rarely gets hot.
It really feels like a software issue. I contacted sony about this issue, and they say they are aware of it, but all they can really offer is to use the sony Xperia companion program to wipe the phone.
It might help to mention that i am rooted and unlocked bootloader. However, my phone has been for months before this issue started. I don't feel like those two things are connected.
It doesn't feel like a hardware issue. But does anyone have an idea what the issue might be?
I have the same problem as you. Neither a wipe nor a different firmware helped me eventually.
I sadly learned to live with it.
Is it after a few hours no matter what, or have you noticed it stop working after charging? Cuz a bad charger can knock it out, though usually only while charging but it's possibly you have a charger that causes it to stop working until reboot?

I think for me, it is, no matter what it becomes faulty after a while, been using the original Sony charger + cable.
But I have a substitute that I can try, thank you for the info.
I've officially gotten to a point where neither a reboot nor safe mode brings it back.
It's such a weird issue. This phone won't be as easy to take apart as my previous phones.

I still hope that Sony will release a Software Update that fixes it …
Hello Everybody,
Same here, i updated to the last version 61.2.A.0.418.
I have the Xperia 1 Mark III UK version. I did a Factory Reset, and the fingerprint sensor works from time to time and stops working completely.
Then I did a hard reset and format, from Xperia Companion. Also with the same result.
It is the third time that I completely reinstall it using Xperia Companion.
- The fingerprint sensor does not work and if you restart the system it works for a short period of time.
- Another thing that I have noticed is that the problem that the Gmail application does not receive notifications of new emails (despite being turned on and configured) has also returned as it happened in other firmware updates.
- And finally, it only happened to me once but the notification LED turn on in blue light and did not go off until I did a forced shutdown.
I don't know what is happening, why this update has broken so many things. I hope sharing this will help others.
It seems to be an electrical noise design defect. My original Xperia 1 III rebooted if it had a fingerprint set, the screen off, and was fast charging with the factory charger. It self-destructed while sending it in for repairs and SBE made false claims that I had altered the firmware. I exchanged it and the replacement has issues too. I can pick up the phone off the table and it says the fingerprint reader is disabled from too many attempts. The touchscreen sometimes goes crazy too. Tap-to-wake is essentially run-battery-dead-because-screen-never-turns-off.
The other issues in this thread are software bugs, probably with the low-memory-killer. This is definitely not my favorite phone.
I have a UK 1 III and have not really had any problems with the finger print scanner, it struggles to open the phone if the screen is off, but if I pick the phone up and the screen comes on, it unlocks every time using the scanner. I have not modded the phone or changed software and have had the phone for just over 2 years.
Hi I wonder if anyone has tried to replace the fingerprint sensor and flex cable to try to fix it. These could be bought for like 10 dollars together in China so might be worth a try!
