problem with the power button on Xperia z

[markoste3]

Sometimes when the phone is on standby mode I press the power button and it doesn't response, that is I have to press it 3-4 times in a row in order tov enter the home screen? I have noticed it the last days especially after the 4.3 update.
Any suggestion?

Is something lagging your phone?task killers or battery savers?

It could be a hardware problem, have you use the phone underwater? 

[markoste3]

No never used it underwater. Also I don't have any Task killer. I definitely noticed this bug after the latest update, so I am curious whether this is a general problem or something that some phones face (in a random way)

I haven't encountered this on my Xperia Z, how about if you reinstall the latest update and check again?

Update Service (SUS)

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Suppose I have to try to re install the update though I have already read other posts in that forum with people that face the same kind of problem.

You could try and contact sony about.this.

Its a known problem with the 4.3 update. I also have it (among the wifi/bluetooth problem)

Hi,

For the last few days my Xperia Z is behaving strangely....

1. All of a sudden my on / off switch is not working

2. Applications like - Albums, Navigation, Maps are not working - msg showing ---- "Unfortunaley, Album Has Stopped.... Ok"..  in most applications this is happening

I thought there might be some software goofup so I upgraded to the lates version. 

Kindly Help
