Hi all.
Sometimes, such as when typing stops working vibration. If you shake the device, the vibration working again. What is it? Somehow I can fix it without a visit to a service center? May be this is traditional problem of Sony?
Any Ideas?
Sony Z5 Compact Rooted, unlocked bootloader. SW stock ***.152.
Got the same problem but mine fell down alot so I think thats why it happened sending it to a service center might be the only solution

Hi i have a big problem with my xperia mini,
i runs great for 3 weeks now sine i bought it,
but suddenly the touchscreen and the back&home button didn't give any respond,
i tried to restart by taking off battery, and i didn't solve the problem
i tried to flash it with stock firmware .368, it also didn't solve it
is this hardware issues or what? any suggestion before i take it to SESC?
As most of the other users who have this problem, it's a hardware issue. Really, after 3 weeks, before you have this problem?
I have the same unit st15i and only a day before reaching 3-weeks. Hoping I won't have this problem.
What color is your unit and model made? (you can check it after you remove the battery) mine is 11w31m
Sony ericsson Xperia mini not working
Hi,
My sony ericsson Xperia mini is having same issue, touch screen is not working and not able to switch off the mobile and applications are not starting when i click on application icon.
Did you get any fix for your issue ? please help me to fix the issue.
Try to repair the software with PC Companion. Click on Support Zone > Start > Repair phone. Just follow the on-screen instructions from here on.
If this won't fix your problem you need to have the phone handed in for repair at a service center unfortunately.
Call the local support team for more info on this (service location etc.).

Check the post in general information about the touchscreen solution using a script. You will need a rooted stock Rom.
old issue,upgrading your st15i to ics will solve it,it's just a bug in it's firmware
Hi.
I bought an Xperia Mini. ST15i, build number 4.0.2.A.0.62, not rooted. android version 2.3.4.
When I work with it about 5 minutes it begins vibrating. I think it happens when the device warms.
I searched in the internet and figured out that upgrading to android 4 will fix the problem but it is too battery consuming and reduces speed. I don't want to upgrade.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks
Just take it to Sony service center... Its a know haptic feedback bug due to overheating... The SE service center will fix it for free...
Or just search for its fix on Google... Its quite easy to fix it manually
Edit: you don't need to upgrade to ICS... it can be fixed on GB
Moved to Q&A
not all can fixed by ICS
i have xperia mini and upgraded to ics but still got problem
but mine is little different..
when only plugged and hold the touchscreen and became randomly pressing..
and i dont have randomly pressing back keys/menu/home
only randomly pressing touchscreen
but when unplugged its became normal..
Sometimes I Can't make a call. When I dial number and push to call. Phone(Sony Xperia go ST27i) shows that its calling until shows busy and automatically end calling. Then I turn on airplane mode and off it then I can Call normal without Interferences. This problem also have my friend with phone xperia U. Also my friend have taked phone to repair center, but center workers says that phone electronic is good. Sony Xoeria U version Android OS, v2.3. Sony Xperia Go version Android 4.1.2. That problem could be and what I should do to resolve it.
P.S. sorry for my bad english.

try to install a custom rom
or any tweaks that may help:fingers-crossed:
or maybe the problem is not from the phone [just try ur sim-card on a nokia device]
In other phone like Nokia, Sim is working correctly. Also other settings adjustment don't help.
Are installing custom ROM need to unlock bootloader or all work with locked bootloader. Because I don't want void warranty rules.
That happens sometimes to me too, but I live in Costa Rica and we have a crappy telecomunications system, so I've always assumed that's the cause
On the smartphone xperia M4 aqua (2312) on the second day after purchase longer included flashlight, he's flash. With no built-in or third-party programs. The menu Diagnosis - the flash will not work, too
Also, sometimes the camera does not start (error camera) who faced? It seems like Softovaya problem and wait for an update or a service center to bear?
didn't understand everything,
but if it can help you, I bought a previous m4 aqua (that i returned since) and after 1 week of using it, suddenly flashlight stopped working,
I used it sometime as a torchlight I don't know if it finally burnt it..
I guess this is a weakness of the phone now I see your post
2 Weeks in and the flashlight is not working, clearly this is a hardware fault and Sony needs to look into it.
Hello Guys
I bought my Z5c in November 2015. Until Thursday it had been working fine. We all know about battery drain and all that but actually the phone was working. I personally like the phone a lot.
On Monday July 31st, I updated to Nougat 7.1.1. Everything was OK. On Thursday Morning the back / home / recent buttons were not working.
I already tried:
- Safe mode (the problem is still there)
- Factory reset
- Software repair (Xperia Companion)
- Flashed the phone and changed CDA to another region. I could not downgrade
I don't think this is a hardware issue because the buttons work in the lockscreen and in landscape mode. It just doesn't work in portrait mode.
This made the phone unusable. My phone company gave me a Sony Xperia XA for $47 for now.
The Z5c was purchased unlocked.
I really need your help please
Thanks
What can I do in this case? I don't think there's a Sony repair center in my country
hi... I have exact same problem..! plz help...
Plz help someone
.....
I am running lineage 14.1 and still there is problem. It works OK in recovery
Hi
I've got the same issue with my wife's Z5C. The navigation buttons are totally unresponsive! Phone is not rooted, so I have no idea if they work in recovery or not. But the buttons DO work if I put phone into landscape mode with Sony logo to the right, but not with the logo to the left?!?
I'm stumped here, so please provide some feedback please...
Meanwhile I'll reset phone with PC Companion and maybe later I'll downgrade a few builds...

UPDATE:
Downgraded to .160 (Generic AU) but no luck. I think this phone is toast, but the weird thing is that according to built-in diagnostics, the surfaces where the back/home/recents button are located are all functioning properly. Any thoughts?
The easy solution is to install an alternative from play store and see if it works or if you are still covered by the warranty just send it to Sony...
The 'get your hands dirty' option...
Has anyone tried flashing their phone using the flashtool http://www.flashtool.net/ ?
It Sounds to me like you are facing a software bug that would disappear if you perform a clean installation of android...
What exactly happened? Provide us with more info....
unfortunately, i act in assumption, this is a hardware issue like seen often on the z3c. The digitizer is broken at these positions. it happens often at the home/back buttons and at the pull down menu.
You can verify this by activating the glove modus (hope this is the right translation of the german Handschuhmodus) which indicates, where exactly you are hitting the touchscreen.
- fix is to replace the touchscreen.
- workarounds are to activate display rotation (and then rotate so that the buttons are appearing at the upper (right) side of the display
- activate the glove modus - i can actually still hit the buttons at their corners
-use the "Back Button" app to generate additional menu buttons.
- move the buttons with Google ADP tools
(i'm actually not allowed to post links, google for it in the official z3c Sony support forum)
Did you ever resolve this? I've come across the same problem (running stock Android 7.1.1).
Went through all reset procedures, safe mode, screen tests etc.
Seeing the same result as you - this area of the screen works fine when locked, but when unlocked it's unresponsive.
I've done a full factory reset on it, just to determine if that'll fix it - no luck.
I would love to know more about why this is thought to be a hardware issue, when the hardware concerned works fine to unlock the phone.
My next step will be flashing a custom ROM, see if that fixes it. Any other hints / tips / clues / suggestions more than welcome!
