Have you tried to repair it or hard reset it with pc companion or SUS?

go for a reset to factory

Disable chrome updates to factory settings. It frees up 100mb more ram and makes your phone lot faster.

This is a lot easier, faster and better trick than a reset to factory settings.

disabalin crome may not work for anyone

spicialy for how didnt update their chrome and stuck with good old one

[Elmo5]

Danial-mach, is there a proper way to back up the phone to restore it easily after a factory reset. I havent found a perfect one. Back up to sd is ok but it doesnt restore the home screens. Sony bridge for mac back up is a piece of crap.

also you can try biult in backup app

but i doubt if any one of them can bring the home screens back

(you mean your arrengment on icons or wallpaer and else?right?)

Yes, i mean the screens i can configure myself. I find tesetting to factory complicated. And it has to be done frequently. Therefore disabling chrome updates seems much better. After all, chrome gives a lot of trouble, although i thought it was solved with 201. But it isnt.
