[Q] Swipe up/down to unlock text missing - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do you guys still have this text showing on the lockscreen? Mine only shows when i first turn on the device (or reboot), then it's gone after a couple of unlocks.
Is this normal?

It's a feature, it stays on screen for the first 3 unlocks. There is a modified version in the Xperia S forum that keeps the text always.

ok good to know that...re-assuring..it looks sleek though

Well, in my case, the text won't go away. I have the original firmware.

Mine used to go away after three unlocks. Now, after updating to 4.2.2 is stays there all the time... How can I get rid of it? Ugly text...

Is There ANY way of getting rid of the dammed screen lock?

I've tried every widget i can find... still the screenlock keeps popping up after a while... nothing seems to get rid of it... its driving me crazy.... heeeeelp...
I'm on latest overcome rom, but I've had this problem with other roms too...
to clarify I'm talking about the common lockscreen that shows up when you turn on the device, it's not a passcode screen... And no, its not exchange related..... it's even popping up at random when I'm doing stuff on the GT...reading a book or something ...
same here, i'm using anyunlock
no lock wotn work for any button to power up the tab
Anyunlock did not affect mine at all..... grrr

No Lock - No Work
Huh... I just tried No Lock on my GTWiFi. It started out fine but suddenly the Lock Screen started popping up at random. Perhaps there's an .apk that can be removed that will take screen lock with it?

No Lock = no lock
No lock works great on my SGT.
The lock screen may pop up after a reboot but if you leave the tab alone the lock screen just disappears.

[Q] Faulty mute toggle?

Hi everyone
Re-posting this from the general section (posted on there by mistake, was still half asleep lol, sorry)
Just got the xperia z yesterday (after my previous lg 4x was stolen... grrr... may the thief get permanent bursting hemorroids...) and I noticed a weird thing.
The mute/vibrate/sound toggle in the notification bar does not seem to work, and the same goes for the one in the popup shown by pressing the power button for a couple seconds.
Details: the mute or vibrate icon appears on the notification bar, but if I check the volumes in settings, they're still all on, and if I receive a call or get a notification or whatever, the phone actually rings despite the supposedly muted state.
All this doesn't happen if I "manually" turn the volume off with the volume buttons or via settings: in that case the vibrate icon appears and the phone actually does not ring.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
All good here dude. Hope you get it fixed. Have you tried turning phone off and on again? That usualy fixes small.glitches.

Yep, already tried that of course, as well as uninstalling the one widget I have that interacts with volumes, just to be sure it was not some weird conflict (and of course it wasn't)
Not a biggie actually, as I can turn it down manually or by said widget, but I hope I'll figure it out anyway if only for the sake of understanding the source of the issue
Yep I understand that. Annoys me when I cant get something working lile its ment to.

I have a problem with the toggle in the notification bar and the power off menu. System settings show me notifications and ringtones are off, but the phone still has audible, unmuted notification sounds. Really annoying.

Heard about it, but haven't read the whole thing yet (yep, still being lazy)
Jokes apart, I was planning to leave it 100% stock for at least a little while to see how the battery behaves without even the slightest piece of modding (got the phone only last friday, today has been the first real "field test" for the battery and so far I'm pretty positively impressed)
Well I have already removes/frozen a bucketload of apps happy bunny, I am. Now I only need to figure out which app does what so I don't kill something and make my phone less usable.

lol I removed a few apps too, but luckily for me they were uninstallable without root or anything.
I also disabled a few more through the stock apps management, for the time being it's sufficient for my taste

Yes, having the same problem as well with mine. But it has been the same problem since I had ICS on my Xperia Arc S, then Xperia V and now this when I use the toggle in the notification bar or any other toggle aside from toggling it manually via setting. Very irritating since it has never and probably will never be fixed due to the fact that it's a cross-model issue. Chances are, those who say they don't have this problem already has it but don't know it yet or will get it eventually. Sony needs to iron this out once and for all

I don't have your problem but I did have times yesterday where it would flash me black screens for no reason, for example when trying to close open apps, it would just flicker black for a bit. Haven't had that problem today though. I do however have broken Wifi at the moment, I can no longer connect to any network or access the settings without the settings freezing.

camera lag
I have the camera lag. when I open the camera app it takes complete a second or two to open. and if you open it from lock screen it takes for ever. well at least from the lock screen it was laggy on .569 too. other than that the UI is slightly slower and laggy than .569.

Point two is not a bug. In my customization "N" mark was not present on previous android versions too.
I can also confirm point 13 which is real pain in the ass.
Ive noticed that camera flickers in low light conditions which is also present on recorded video but pictures have less noise in my opinion.

Hi,
I have a TX with update 4.3 (the USA firmware that was posted here at XDA), and about the 100% charge reboot problem, it only occured to me after rooting the phone (First fastboot kernel with CWM, then install SU and after restorting the kernel from the 4.3 ROM).
When I flash again 4.3 (wipping everything) and staying like that (no root) I don't have the 100% charge reboot problem.
So I think that the 100% charge reboot problem is related to the root process.

Can't be. I haven't rooted just installed the generic CE and left my phone on overnight and this morning was up late as a consequence.
See my post on Sony Support http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-T-TX/Xperia-T-also-got-charging-bug-4-3/td-p/562469

About 13 - phone turns off after charged to 100%.
I haven't yet experienced it.. Are there people who doesn't have that issue? Maybe it's related to previous bootloader unlocking/flashing kernels/mods/doing some risky stuff without any practical knowledge about it?
In other words - if you have that issue please report - have you flashed custom kernels in the past/done some major modifications ? Maybe you have phone from second hand and previous owner put there not original battery? Let's gather all the info we can.

NO NFC ICON WHEN ON-BUT WORKS
NO ICON WHEN PLUG EARPHONES-BUT WORKS
100% CHARGES..REBOOT-experience 2 times,phone not rooted,flash USA region firmware,
BLACK BOX VOLUME-SOLUTION-APPLY ANOTHER THEME AND RESTART PHONE.

PS:which region firmware are you using plz?
Point 3: the volume bar is black because you used theme that dowloaded from play store. Just apply stock theme and reboot, the volume bar will show correctly

No NFC icon or earphone icon is not a bug.Android system itself removed them in 4.3(or the system doesn't show them at all - Sony adds it). CM10.2 and CM11 don't show the icons either.
The earphone icon in 4.1 is shown by an Sony-made app,not the Android system.

Xperia Z1 KitKat 4.4 Issues (May be Individual issues)

Hello everybody (Xperia Z1 Owners with Official KitKat 4.4.2)
I recently bought Xperia Z1 and updated it to 4.4.2, but after updating I'm having some issues.
1. When exiting any app, phone should go to home screen, for example I opened the Camera with the dedicated button and used it and pressed back button. As soon as I pressed Back button, the Settings comes up, sometimes dailer, sometimes some other app. Also it just not for Camera it happens mostly for any app I use.
2. When I get call, as I lift the call by dragging the green button the calls automatically starts with loudspeaker sometimes.
3. Battery drains faster sometimes.. like it was 95% and after few minutes it goes 92% (I was not using the phone at that time, it was idle)
4. Unlock animation, most the times while swiping I get smaller bubbles.
Any body having same issues, or any of the above.

1. I have the same problem as well, for me the app just comes up and then quickly closes again though.
2. I don't call too often, but I think I've had this problem once, I also could've accidentally turned it on with my cheek though.
3. Not a clue, could be a personal thing.
4. No idea what you mean but doesn't seem to be a major problem.

About the Unlock Animation, it works different when you set the live wallpaper theme and different if you use the static wallpaper theme.

As soon as I pressed Back button, the Settings comes up, sometimes dailer, sometimes some other app. Also it just not for Camera it happens mostly for any app I use.
2. When I get call, as I lift the call by dragging the green button the calls automatically starts with loudspeaker sometimes.
3. Battery drains faster sometimes.. like it was 95% and after few minutes it goes 92% (I was not using the phone at that time, it was idle)
4. Unlock animation, most the times while swiping I get smaller bubbles.
Any body having same issues, or any of the above.

1. That happens sometimes with the KK update, the best way to fix that is simply do a factory reset of your phone in the settings
2. Known problem start with Factory Reset, if this not help repair via PC Companion
3. Known problem too, KK update make battery calibration that drain battery, that's back to normal after one or 2 days if not then it's because the SDCard access has be removed from 3rd app with KK that cause battery drain and overheating (i have this one with a 64Gb SDCard :crying: ) to be sure remove your SDCARD and test if there is no battery drain anymore then join us to the SDCard Crying Group and wait that Sony Fix that...
4.That's what you have by default you can change it in settings.

Its not a problem it has been done on purpose.
Sony will not fix it because its implemented by google to fix security issues. All companies running Android are bound by contracts to use this feature. It actually makes you phone more secure.

I cannot find a brief explanation on that, what exactly should be more secure? I think is for retarded users.

No i wasn't talking about that, many people haven't the battery drain/overheat problem but with some certains SDCARD/Capacity that cause that, let me explain : if i use my 64GB class 10 SDCard with KK that cause huge battery drain and overheating and ONLY with KK, not a single problem if i reflash the phone to JB 4.3 and i've tested all that is possible to do, format, reset etc... nothing works with KK :crying:

It stops third party apps reading anything you keep on your SDcard, like passwords, bank details and other sensitive information you may keep there. For example, I use online banking on my phone and I have sensitive information like that on my SDcard, now no other app can read it.

Yes, its on KK because KK stops third party apps reading the SDcard, so some KK un-optimised apps keep trying to read it but cant, causing overheat and battery drain

Then i need to wait that apps update right?
Sadly i have no idea what apps cause that it's too hard to find the way because even with no app and the official stock rom i still have the battery drain overheating problem, the only solution for the moment is to remove my lovely cuttie 64Gb class 10 SDCard
If you are rooted and can change the permissions to remove this access.
Look in the general section, you just add one line to a permissions file. There is also an app in the play store that does it for you automatically

But I can keep them on Internal (as the Internal is also a SDcard, External SDcard1, and they do the same job) so to me do not make sense.
