Why I can't pull my notifications bar?

newinthowai — Fri, 14 Feb 2014 04:52:36 GMT

It's been 3 days that I can't pull this notifications bar. Sorry if I'm too offensive but actually it really makes me angry. I can't pull the notifications bar and I didn't do anything. Everyone on the internet says that I should hard reset and Sony says this: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Ion/Detailed-Software-Repair-Instructions-using-Pc-Companion-Windows/td-p/249946

Well, none of them helped me. I have done a lot of things for this:

1. Factory reset.

2. Just as sony told me on facebook.

3. Removed softwares.

4. Updated it to latest software.

5. Searched for solution.

6. Nothing happens.

So I'm here ad I want some of you guys to help me pulling this thing (Notifications bar) down. I didn't do anything wrong, I did everything as usual. Once, I used USB debugging and it effected my phone that my screen started to go berserk. It opened different apps without my command (I didn't anything), it started to open different apps, since then I can't use my phone charging. I have anti-virus and I scanned for viruses but there is no virus in my phone. So please help me.

Sounds like electricity jumped from the usb to the touchscreen. Waterdamage? Dust? Your phone is probably busted.

Same here with Sony z, I did factory reset, now I think ok

ZzzzzYF — Thu, 02 Jul 2015 14:12:32 GMT

I have the same problem starting today afternoon!

Everytime after reboot, first try pulling down will work smoothly, but thereafter will be very very difficult, but not impossible, no problem in landscape mode.

In safe mode, the same problem happened.

Your phone has been water damaged. I lost this phone on water damage like 2 years ago.

Sony lied to us saying it's a water proof phone. Don't be fooled next time, it's not completely water proof as the ad said 2 years ago. It's just a phone.

Your notifications bar isn't working because the water entered through the earphone or headphone port and stuck on the top of the touch screen.

Try this method:

Get a polythene and put some few KGs of rice in it and put your phone there for like 3 days or more. You might have a slight chance of survival from water damage afterwards. And don't drown it after that.

Im facing the same problem here? Is it because the charging placed on top of the screen and maybe there is a huge amount of current entered my phone and affect the top side of the screen? I really need explaination here or any suggestion on why is this happening, BTW this problem occured 1 day after I update my phone through Sony companion in laptop, and I can easily swipe down the notification in landscape mode but not in horizontal mode, it really pissed me off actually. Im sorry

Hello, Thats strange. What happens when you try to slide it down? Are there any touch issues on that area?

Also try pulling notification bar with two fingers.

You can test you touch at Settings>About Phone> Diagnostics.

Did you find a solution to this problem? My phone has started doing this over the weekend and I can't work out why?? Just like you, can still swipe in landscape but mostly use my phone on portrait.

Any advice appreciated
