Android 4.3 Update Problems.......

[Fawaz]

I noted the following problems....hope others having problems will post here to get a good response from sony...

1. My phone is slow even though I uninstalled most of the applications I used in 4.1. 

2. (maybe the same problem) my remaining ram is around 190 and 200 even though i have disabled most of the applications.

3. phone in battery saver and stamina mode on for 8 hours battery draind 8 percent..( 4.1 It never happened)

4. Screen is sort of blinking when waking up...

5. Led notification light keeps on during the call....

6. Autobrightness is not working as promised to correct it.....

is it worth to have a phone like this???????????

shame on you sony you took so long for this update, finally to produce a **bleep** like this...????

For the volume bar,it seems you need to change theme to default,after that just restart the phone.

I had posted previously about issues the day after I updated but now there are yet more problems. On a few occasions I've been unable to answer phone calls because the screen doesn't light up, and in the last few days the screen doesn't light up when you press the power button to come off of standby. This is my second handset of this model as the first handset, the screen would not respond at all - Vodafone said it could have been a faulty handset and replaced it. This update seems to be causing more problems than its worth, really hope it a new update comes out to fix all these problems soon - I'm not the type of person to factory reset phones, no one should have to do that anyway, shouldn't have to put up with awful software like this.

i've tried 4.3. update and it's not good at all and unless you know how to reflash your phone to the previous version personally I wouldn't recommend the 4.3. update.

I've reflashed mine back to 254 and won't be installing 4.3 again in it's current build.

it amazes me that 3 pre-releases later the final release build is so bad.

Think it's time to change brands which is very disappointing from Sony.

As for 4.4 Kit Kat I think I'll be a Samsung owner before they suss that one out.

Very Disappointed Sony Fan

I have used sony update service and at least, phone performance is generaly smooth, but some bugs still remain though. And the phone is a bit slower, than 4,1 anway. I am disapointed. Cannot wait for another update, that should fix that.

 And sony, I would love to see kitkat on this phone ASAP. Please! You should leave 4.3 after the fix and work on 4.4
