Xperia U StartUp problem with sim card inserted.

[MrG]

Hi all,

Mine One year Old Xperia U problem switched off suddenly yesterday. When i tried restarting , phone boots but display goes blur with only transparent bar glowing.Each time when i press power key phone restarts and goes to same blur mode with glowing transparent bar.
Tried restarting the phones many times but no luck

Repaired phone using PC companion but still the same . Today morning i removed the SIM and phone worked like a charm. Thinking it might be Sim issue have inserted differnt Sim , but still same result.Without Sim, phone is working fine.

If any one of you have faced the similar issues please post. Would expect Sony developer to suggest the possible causes.

Same issue with my one and half yr old xperia U since today morning...

tried factory resetting, software update, software re-installation... all in vain.  

Sony is cheating its customers

same problem here i took it to service center they said its a hardware problem and it costs 6k -7k rupees....

I am also facing the same issue.

If so many users are facing the same issue then it means it is the issue with the Xperia U model only.

Sony must compansate for the issue which we are facing.

I have got same problem. I did factory reset and upgraded to ICS using Sony PC Companion.
Service centre guy, instantly said that my phone problem is because of water get in the phone. According to him board needs to be changed costing Rs.7000/-
I think this is a common problem and not any water getting into phone problem. Sony is making very poor phone. My brother and a cousin bought Xperia Z and both of them changed there phone with other brands.

...oh by the way. My phone's problem is still there.
