lollipop issues: anyone else?

[uponheresy]

After lollipop update, my music and pics have to.be accessed through file commander unless o transfer them.to my sd card. Also I can't use downloaded Ringtones or alert. When awakening phone from sleep screen acts random Like iv taken a screenShot. When I double tap a Facebook messenger notification on home screen, after unlocking the bubble dissappear dissappears then reappears with unread message number gone, as if iv read it but it failed to open. Just a few issues iv had so far. Been persevering but finally seen Sony noticing people having issues and working on fix

That's an odd behavior, do you have any taskillers? third party home launchers or lock screens? antivirus?

Try turning your device on in safe mode,  and then check

This is how to boot on safe mode (lollipop)

I shall try that. I had AVG, which iv deleted. Another odd thing happening was playstore randomly opening without clicking links etc... Shall try safe mode, is there anything I should whilst in it? Or able to use as normal? Thanks for responses

@uponheresy

boot on safe mode and use your phone on safe mode for few hours

Maybe you should just bite the bullet and perform a factory reset or a repair install via PCC, I had to perform the repair install myself for other problems and now my phone seems to be working great 😉

@delwoods I totally agree

@uponheresy just go for it
