Hi guys,
Recently I downloaded apex launcher to try to customize my homescreen. After which I uninstalled the launcher and wanted to use back the default sony xperia launcher but I realised I couldnt open most apps upon first touch, despite restarting my phone several times. Any help on this??

Disable Developer Options and try again maybe a reboot of the device its needed
That fixed my issue, i'm trying to find if the problem is from Window animation scale, animator duration scale or transition animation scale under developer options.
I had this problem before. Its happening because of activating the DEVELOPER OPTIONS! Even after you disable it you still have the problem! You need to restore your phone! And dont activate the dev. Options any more.

No need to restore, you can disable dev options and then go Settings -> Apps -> All -> Xperia home and then clear data that way you resetting only the launcher.

Hi , i just bought a new SGS3 i9035. My problem is when i try to delete one of the pages, it stuck for few secs then it force close. Im not rooted and im on 4.1.1.
check my screenshots
That's a bug that happens when you disable the animations found in Developer's Options. Set the animation scale to 1x or 0.5x again, then reboot the phone, and the problem should go away.
Hey, thanks a lot! Problem solved thank by me

Wow, camera shortcut in lock screen? Are you sure? I never had those, hope none had. Can open camera from lockscreen but i think shortcuts can be placed. Are you using stock launcher?

Yes this can be done with stock launcher. (.350)
Does not work on pin, only on swipe to unlock. (So no code has to be entered to gain acces to the device.)
Music and Camera will be present there.
Sadly I could not find a way to remove or add things to help the OP.
Kind regards, Stefan.
The camera shortcut won't show up if you have a security lock screen on. Only if you have the swipe lock screen.
Is that your issue?

Not shortcut, as in a shortcut like you place on your home screen. It's part of Sony sleep-to-snap feature. There is a camera icon on the lock screen (on the right of the time display) that you can swipe left to directly launch camera (without unlocking your phone and accessing it from the menu/home screens). This makes it possible to capture those shots that only last a moment.
On the left side of the time display is the music icon. You drag that to the right to access music controls.
Checkout the screenshots below (they are Xperia V, but thanks to Sony's unified UI, looks the same). Hope this helps. If it does, hit thanks.

Open the camera app and go onto the settings and enable Quick Launch, that should do the trick.

You are right cassywilliam
I had the same. I have found that when I upgraded the software it came back again and then disappeared again after a few days (I think this had to do with utilizing an 'Exchange' email account. I have now deleted the Exchange account (which has various security conditions attached to it) and then basically messed around in the security settings for setting to swipe (with quick launch activated in the camera) and then back to PIN and the camera in the lock screen is back again!!! Its been there and stable for several weeks now... give it a go!
Ive uploaded a picture for the unbelievers out there
About shortcuts
Does anybody know how to add some shortcuts to the 'Home Button'? When you longpress the 'Home Button' you have a shorcut to Google Search, can you add more shortcut to that ring?
Thanks
Yeah, I would be curious to know if the lock screen shortcuts can be customised, too!
Goodevening,
I have had my Sony Xperia Z for 6 days and it's been great up till this evening.
When I touch to open applications, it doesn't respond and this happens with all apps. However the on-screen buttons and swiping through the app drawer/home screen were still working without problem and if after many tries an app opens, the in-app operation was smooth.So the problem is just in the opening apps from home screens and app drawer.
After a while I've come to notice that the apps only opens when I touch the upper left corner of the icon of the apllication. This is a bit frustrating.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

I repaired using Sony update last evening, it was good but this evening the problem came back
2 things:
1-you are using a charger not the stock one that came with the phone?
2-you disabled the animations in developer options?

1. No, I am using the stock charger
2. Yeah, I did disable animations. Re-enabling it didn't help neither
1st back track what you did before this started to happen.
-what did you install
-what did you flash
-what settings did you change
etc...
2nd did you do a full wipe of the internal after repairing it with Sony Update Service?
1) backup your files
2) Repair it with Sony Update Service
3) settings > back up and reset > factory data reset
if the problem still remains
flash another FTF file and they can be found here

There is apparently a bug in our phones, did u set no animation scaling in developer options? If u did, revert back to. 5 or 1 and reboot. should fix the issue
I installed the latest version of null and all is almost good except for one annoying problem.
When I left up my hand to look at the watch it turns on ok but it shows me the apex launcher select screen to go to.
What is wrong how can I fix this behavior?
You need to change settings in apex. Do a search and you'll find the answer
