vigneshkk — Sat, 01 Jun 2013 06:19:38 GMT

I have done JB update last night for my xperia SL using PC suite. After that walkman app is not starting at all. It is throwing the below error and closing automatically. Also WIFI is not connecting to any available networks... It is switched on but still it is not showing the symbol in the top of screen and unable to browse anything.:smileysad:

Please help !

Hi Vignesh,

Did you do update through flashtool or from sony, and try to do clean install it will resolve your issues.

regards,

Andrew

Or just clean walkman's cache?

I guess re-starting your mobile will solve this problem. I have faced the similar problem today, for Both FM and Walkman. I just restarted the phone. That worked for me :smileyhappy:.

This is the only reason why I decided to blacklist Sony's phone forever. This has been happening ever since the first ICS update, and wasn't been solved even after the second firmware patch. Now that Jelly bean 4.1.2 is finally here after such a long wait, thank God, but the walkman app still stops playing randomly, whether you're browsing webpages or just doing something else while listening to music.ANNOYING AS HELL. I did a factory reset, even a full system wipe, including BOTH the internal memory and SDcard partition, and reinstalled Jellybean stock ROM via Sony's Official Update Service, TWICE IN A ROW, but to no avail. I even mistakenly blamed Google Chrome for its fault, but it turned out that this happens with each and every single one of the web browsers I have used, including the stock browser that came with Jellybean, Firefox, Dolphin, etc. Don't even think that this was all caused by me rooting and/ or unlocking the phone because I didn't bother.

I am very disappointed with this. Even swiching to other music player didn't help at all. Music still stop playing randomly.
