Factory reset support

My phone has developed new issues post the factory reset:
- random contacts have gone missing
- keyboard backspace and fwd slash keys are behaving buggy in potrait mode. didn't try landscape
- swipe works at times and sometimes not
- contact images are reduced to a small box vs taking up the entire screen after the software update
- the ear speaker issue which was told to me by the service centre ppl was a software issue remains unsolved
- few screenshot images have just disappeared on restore (yes, I did a full backup)

Service center refuses to check the phone. First Xperia Z Ultra they were dealing with.

No sound from the ear speaker most of the times. If there is any, is more of static. The phone hasn't got wet not have I tried to treat its waterproof abilities. The diagnostics is mixed. At times can hear the sound and at times I can't.

The battery life is reduced to half after the factory reset. It used to last me 12 hours and now within 4 it asks for a recharge.

You should contact a Sony Moderator so they can take a look into this, I don't understand why they wouldn't take your phone. Contact Johan, Sam, Alexander, Markus, etc.

It would be very odd for an authorised repair agent to not take a phone. Have you contacted your local Xperia Care team to verify if this is an authorised repair agent?

Hi Sam,

I finally did get support. They replaced the handset saying that the ear speaker software was conflicting with the microphone. Something I didn't understand.

That is odd, however I am glad they have sorted it for you.

Quiet unhappy with the phone though. The phone functions are terrible. Contact management, call quality. Still having issues with zero support from the service centre.
