Problem with OS V 4.0.4

Wed, 08 Aug 2012 18:21:23 GMT

Purchesed my LT18i (arc S) few days ago. This phone is quite good compared to many other phones but problem started after updating the OS to V 4.0.4.(previous V was Gingerbread) I am putting some hints:

1. Application freezes (especially games like Angry Birds, Temple Run etc.) while running/starting. I tried reinstalling these apps but problem sustains.

2. Data transfer via B/T: Unable to send any data (eg. music, image) via B/T to other android phone and every time it says "Sending failed"

3. OS runs slow (I guess)

4. Phone freezes and restarts

5. Sometimes I face prolem connecting through wifi. Unable to discover available devices.

6. Using photo editor: This happens more often; when I try to crop any image from Gallery, application does not respond.

So far these are the problems happening more frequently. I am from Bangladesh; purchased this phone almost a month now. The package was abosolutely sealed and I found nothing unusual about the quality/condition. I followed the update process as prescribed. I think the problem lies with the version; bug or something. Please help me out!! I really need this phone fixed asap.

Sadly there is no solution other than getting Sony repair to flash it back to Gingerbread or unlock it yourself to flash custom ROM. Sony did a terrible job implementing ICS.

Thanks man, I appreciate! But I would really like to hear from Sony; if they have a solution to these problems, any update or something! They cant just encourage to roll all these phones back to previous version just because they are reluctant to/can't fix these bugs. After all Sony is one of those giants; they have a reputation to uphold!

у меня тоже, только после переустановки на android 4.0.4 появились странные звуки далеко не родные, и самое интересное они не удаляются и не отключаются, думаю обратиться сервисный центр на перепрошивку, только я уверен, что это будет не бесплатно

только что выполнил сброс всех настроек - все наладилось (лишние звуки пропали) и вместе с тем пропали все номера в телефоне, все фото, видео

зато телефон работать начал как надо

I, too, only after you reinstall on the android 4.0.4 appeared strange sounds far from home, and the fun they have not deleted or disabled, I think to address the service center for re-flash, but I'm sure it will not be free
