Phone application serious bugs

Hi!

I updated my Xperia P to Android 4.2.1 (build 6.2.A.0.400). I have serious problems when answering a call:

  • When sliding the green answer icon, - sometimes - the UI freezes and the phone is ringing and/or vibrating. After a few seconds it says that the phone application is not answering, and asks if I would like to wait or close it.
  • When answering a call - sometimes - the telephone is vibrating for a few seconds after the conversation has started. This is very annoying and and disturbing for the remote caller also.
  • When making a call it takes too much time to start dialing / ringing or the ringing is not hearable.

I am disappointed because of the above bugs. I think answering and making calls should be a basic functionality without any bug. Please let me know if Sony is aware of these bugs and working on it.

I am considering rollback to 4.0.4 or buy an other phone, if these bugs will exist on my phone.

you don't have to unlock your bootloader. unlocking the bootloader shouldn't improve anything just void your warranty and you wont be able to use SUS or PCC or Bridge or update OTA

Did you delete any app before/after you unlocking bootloader?

it will be easier to use a different dial app > and disable the preloaded app, that will improve everything quite a bit, also empty the call logs and messaging app often
