hi all.
i have a problem on my xperia mini pro.
i dont know whats wrong.
when i lock my phone, and i want to turn it on back, it is turn off and suddenly the S.E logo appears.
seems like rebooting back.
sometimes when i make the screen timeout for 30minutes, it will also turn off by itself and restart back by itself. sometimes it goes off and no reboot back.
i have search on XDA and found that few problems like mine.
i try few solution like take out the battery, uninstall apps which maybe make my phone turn off.
i also reflash my phone to 2.3.3 and also reflash back to 2.3.4. it just goes the same. my warranty have void as i have unlock my bootloader.
i just dont root my phone yet as i think rooting my phone doesnt help this problem.
someone can help me? i really miss my phone like the old days to tweeting and facebooking without any turn off and reboot by its own.
Did you try a factory reset? This may fix your problem. But rooting could possible help.....
Please hit the thank you button if i helped!

i've done the factory reset before. seems like it does not really help much.
not trying to root yet coz i dont think rooting can solve the problem
Does it make any difference if you start the phone with the charger plugged into it?
...or even without the SIM card or SD card? Any difference at all?

I bought the phone over from bobo. And yes it does make a difference.
This problem does not occur whenever the phone is plugged in. However while running on battery, if I leave it be and once it goes into standby, it would not turn on again.
Seems to me it went into sleep of death.
At the moment, I have no idea how to fix it. But I've found a workaround by keeping the CPU on when the display is off by using wake_lock. However this workaround is a little battery consuming.

bro i have this problem before, what im doing before was playing music on mute for it not to turn off NOT until 0.62 FW came out and the problem was solved, it doesnt turn off on stock 0.62 fw and stock 2.3.4 but the screen when locked automatically turns on and off multiple times, its annoying..really so i decided to unlock my bootloader, flashed rooted 0.62 FW from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161, turning on and off phone and screen solved, flashed its respective ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373435, and now my phone is so stable and having no more problem.
i think the only problem i noticed just now is the back button (its not really a button) and the option button's light is turning off and on while screen is on. but thats better than your phone turns on and off or your screen.
i hope this helps.

I've done this too. Flashed the same kernel, and the same ROM as you did. But the problem still prevails in my phone. I still have to keep control of wake_lock to prevent CPU from sleeping while the display is off.
Btw, when I flashed the kernel, under my "About" in the settings, it still says .58 instead of .62.

you mean in the Settings>About Phone> in the build number it should have HYBROM V9 by boof not the kernel name like .58 or .62 if you flashed the kernel and rom correctly.
disable lockscreen
Try to disable your lockscreen in the settings menu. Maybe that helps
My phone have the very same problem.
Any good new?
I've tried the factory restore. Didn't solve the problem.
so....no solutions yet!!??!

Hello ,
My Sony Z2 phone was running fine, but since yesterday when someone calls me the phone rings normally but the screen freezes. It doesn't show who is calling, just rings and vibrates. The 3 buttons at the bottom of phone (Back - Home - App log) disappear, the top bar freezes as i can't drag it down, but i can still run any application i want on the desktop.
I tried restarting the phone, but it is still doing the same thing. I have also opened it in safe mode but it did the same thing. Any idea what may be causing this ?

Probably a odd bug
Use flashtool to flash a FTF (exclude data)
This should fix ANY issues your having on the firmware side

I recoment you try repairing your device via Sony PC companion. this will format your internal storage trying to fix your device this way.
if the problem persists then call sony customer support
if you want to try the flashtool method (which doesnt wipe your storage)
you can get flashtool from here
http://www.flashtool.net
and a FTF from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759934
select the flash/lightning icon at the top left
click flashmode
select the FTF you downloaded (exclude data)
wait for it to finish prepparing
power off your device
when prompted plug your device into your PC holding volume down

I have reset my phone and it is now working fine. It took me a whole day to rearrange my phone one again. Hopefully this won't happen again.

Thank you for your reply, but what's that got to do with my reported problem ? .. It will only show or hide the top bar's icons. I'd like to know that in case this happened again.

Settings-apps-all,scroll down to incall ui,enable it.
If the above does not help,you might need to enable notifications for incall ui from settings-personalization-manage notifications.
I've installed the official Nougat update from Elephone using the SP flash tool. Before the update, everything on the phone was working.
After the update, the phone boots Android 7 fine, but no SIM cards are recognised.
I've tried entering Engineer Mode through the phone app to reset the IMEI (I know what they are) but the 'Connectivity' page in Engineer Mode doesn't list phone radios, only FM, Bluetooth, NFC and WiFi.
So I rooted the phone and tried entering AT commands through a terminal. But the folder /dev/radios is empty.
It's like my phone has no... well, no phone. I guess the driver is broken somehow.
Does anyone have any tips on how to proceed?

Use maui meta 3g to restore IMEI. It is mentioned several times in these forums.

Well, there's one who didn't read the question. This is not about restoring the IMEIs.
Alright. I know flashing nougat might break the radios and also IMEI. This includes not detecting simcards. I had this problem myself.....
I have the same problem, or similar .
I can sometimes send and recieve text messages and sometimes i can call. Data traffic seems to work ok.
Right now as soon as i try to make a call i lose connection to the mobile network.
Theres a simple fix, reflash 6.0, then do format all + download android 7, imei wont be restored, but both sims will be recognized and work normally

I did this and got the sim working with data and SMS but I can't call.
Should I try again? I want to restore my imei from my box too.
Flashtool and stock roms?
How did you do Tom? Did you fix it?

that seems like a hardware issue, i think theres a few cheap speakers and you could try to fix urself on ali express theres speaker at around 10$ it ahould be farelly easy to replace it
I've had this same problem, but only after replacing my screen due to damage. Ever since then, it'll see the sim but wont connect to my network.
Hi guys, sorry for my bad English. But I have a problem and I do not know where else to turn. The other day, to make a clean installation, I made a full wipe and reinstalled 08.11.23. The phone turned on and worked perfectly, but when it restarted, the message "find the device stopped unexpectedly" appeared and the phone restarted to recovery. I deactivated the account of xiaomi but it did not work ... If I make a clean installation I can use it perfectly, but when restarting it is the problem ... help please!
Sorry again for the English.

It looks like you did some kind of de-bloat and removed some services. I had exactly the same problem, but if you can list out what all you removed, I could shed some light.
Install the rom pixel and let me use it perfectly. But obviously I lose facial and miui recognition for example ... but if I go back a miui rom, the same mistake happens to me

THE ONLY ONE I DID WAS TO MAKE A FULL WIPE AND FLASH A ZIP. DO NOT ELIMINATE ANYTHING BY MY HAND.

Flashing persist can solve the issues
flash persis.img via recovery (ofrp) or fastboot "fastboot flash persist persist.img"
Hello to all,
i have an xperia z3 compact and i left it out of use for a while due to broken screen, i finally changed the screen but realised that i have forgotten the lock pattern.
Any way to unlock it without losing my data in the internal memory?
If it helps and if i remember correctly,
1) i had usb debugging and developer options enabled
2) i haven't rooted it (for sure).
3) phone has kept the credentials for my wifi, gmail, etc, so it's connected when i turn it on (and of course i have those credentials).
4) it probably has android 6 (marshmallow) installed.
5) i tried with "find my device" from google, and while it sees my phone, it says "Find My Device is turned off" so the option for locking it anew is greyed out and i can't access it, so this method doesn't work.
Any ideas? is it possible to bypass the pattern and get inside to get my stuff and apps?
thank you to anyone reading this and wanting to help me out.
I don't think that's quite possible. The few ways to bypass the lock have pretty much disappeared with recent Android versions.
Best of luck!
thank you, i'm so frustrated. At first i wanted to save my data and bypass the pattern, now i just want to be able to use my phone again even if i lose the data and i can't even do that!
There is no hard reset for this model!
I just can't believe that there isn't any way possible to get back your phone if you forgot your pattern!
no way to have recovery or TWRP in a locked phone with usb debugging on?
no way to push adb commands?
There should be something for situations like that
