phone update stuck

mi12 — Tue, 26 Jul 2016 17:39:56 GMT

Hi everyone,

I tried installing updates to my phone (it's an old Xperia, I'm not sure about the exect model), and now it seems to be stuck (looks like it's still working on the update, but it's been almost a day...)

I don't know what to do. I would appreciate some help.

Thank you!

Hey mi12, t
if you cannot get the phone out of the update, I would suggest trying to do a software repair with Xperia Companion if it supports your device. Do you know if it part of the Sony Z series?

I think it's Xperia J..

Hi mi12,

Welcome to the community,

You should be able to run a software repair with the Xperia J. I have supplied a link below with instructions on how it is done.
