Hi @Sambit123,

Welcome to the community.

Where is your device from? I know some countries have disabled the fingerprint scanner for this device.

Hi,

I have tried to contact Sony via the 'send us an email' link and filled out the info but it would not submit my request, so i don't know if you have recieved. Please can you send me an email, it is urgent regarding a similar issue to this one ( my phone will no longer open via the 4 digit code as some of the buttons/finger pad functions have stopped working, as well as the fingerprint function has also stopped)

Thanks,

Kara

@Sambit123,

Did you do the update FOTA or via Xperia companion? Or did you install it manually using another program?

@karal,

I can see in our system that the email you sent has been received yesterday. Someone from that support team should contact you back soon.
