How do I fixed my software ?

Tue, 27 Dec 2011 20:17:23 GMT

I woke up in the morning and turned on my phone

and a screen pop up and says:

The application Sony Ericsson Home (processcom.sonyericsson.home) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

and there is a button says: force close

when I tapped that button, it shows this on my screen

It still able to connect to my computer, to update the andriod software ( I just updated to the newest one 4.2 something to just to see any hope that could fixed my phone)

but I can't call, can't do anything from the phone, can't even go to setting.

I saw some of the post that people were having the same problem, and I had tried all of them,

but it doesn't work....

I got this phone in august, when the phone just came out, and it was perfectly fine before the day I was using it.

Please help me =[

1st take off the battery and w/o it press and hold the power button for 5 seconds, put the battery back on and turn it on, if it doesn't work then

on your computer go to

market.android.com sign in look for taskiller

click on install, your phone should download it soon after, drag the notification bar down open it and kill all the apps

if that doesn't work then use Update Service (remove both SIM and SD card before hand)

Update Service (SEUS)
