What is software repair..??

I'm just curious what does it actually do..?? Does it download the whole firmware again and reinstall it or just install the missing components which might have remianed in the previous installation.. I'm thinking of doing it because automatic routing of calls to loudspeaker is just annoying me too much..:@

It reinstalls the software erasing the actual one(all phone memory is erased).All apps are taken back to default.

hey alexdon is routing of calls to loudspeaker is known bug or it is just case of wrong firmware installation, because i'm on limited data plan so if again downloading the whole firmware didn't solve my problem the Ln my 1 gb will go in vain

After you disabled chrome,have you restarted?

Also,sony update service must be run on your computer,not on the phone.
