Seconded.
Less than 2% of retail Xperia AX/VL handsets (the Japanese version of Xperia V) are affected by SoD according to Sony Service Centres' statistics. I'm sure for the international model it's the same.
Not so sure i should answer this question....
happens to my friends before..
Mine international Xperia V is on Singapore's ROM and I experience SOD near once in month.

I've had this happen twice in the last few days, and I've had the phone for only about a week. I'm on stock JB rom 9.1.A.0.490 which came preinstalled on the phone. I have yet to try any WiFi settings like suggested in most threads about this problem.

sod and heat problem
so how often do these problems happen. The SOD and the heating problem. I might buy the xperia V but im seeing a lot of people reporting this problems and also the fact that you can end up with the tmd screen with poor quality. is this phone worth the risk of buying it?

I have SOD near once a month and don't have overheating problem (it heats up while heavy gaming, but it's normal). Overall it's a very nice phone, but build quality isn't perfect —*for example, it squeaks when I take it in the middle of the edges (plastic slightly presses inside), but it's not a problem for me too.

well i think the lt25 is the international version. so how many of these devices suffer from the sod and the heating problem, according to the statistics ? because i want to buy the xperia v and i only know and trust ebay for this kind of stuff. I found it there for 400 usd which i think is a very good price

Hello.
Where did you buy your phone from? I bought mine from SingTel and I don't seem to have that problem. Maybe you should ask for a replacement using warranty?

I'm from Russia and bought international LT25i from mobyshop.com.sg, so I don't think it's possible to replace it (it will be too long)

You can try and ask for a replacement. The seller is basically giving you a broken device.
Bought a V for my wife and she is complaining that the phone gets hot while in her purse and after charging overnight it does not respond anymore. It has the. 940 firmware which came from the factory. It is an unbranded Dutch phone.
So international and with major problem. Will contact Sony tomorrow. Pretty frustrating.
Just thought I'd share.
Only started experiencing SOD a few weeks ago (owned the V since end of last year when it first came out in singapore, Stock ROM) around the same time a few apps were updated.
SOD only happens when it goes to sleep with wifi connection only on or LTE as preferred network. Only option is to long press the power button to shut it down then restart.
No SOD if i leave it on WCDMA as preferred network.
2 noticeable app (since I used them regularly( issues I experienced same time I started experiencing SOD - Whatsapp hung occassionally (has since been rectified after the recent updates) and Instagram will hang and exit while I am browsing (still occurs despite uninstalling and reinstalling.)
just thought i'd share to.
i got my phone from Singtel too, last year, within the first few weeks of it's release and i sufferec from SoD for like a long period of time until it went away on it's own i didn't do anything to it, other than updating it whenever there's a new update and just pulling the battery whenever the SoD happens.
now once in a while it will hang and i'll have to pull the battery, but at least it doesn't heat up.
another problem is the fluctuating battery levels whenever I restart the phone -_-
however... i am still feeling kinda scared whenever i do an update. like it keeps me wondering if the SoD problem will kick up again.
sighhhhhhhh
I just bought this device, i havent faced this SOD problem(3 days now). Hope it wont happen to me. Status, locked bl, havent root yet.:thumbup:

As I see, I guess there are approximately 5% of the total amount of Optimus 2X that got problem about freezing screen and reboot itself.
No one can solve this problem unless go back to LG and claim new one.
But, no one can make sure that the new one will not have the same problem again.
Now I am sending my 2X back to LG and wait them to send a new 2X back to me.
I am so worried if I get the new mobile with problem again.
So, I would like to know anybody who already claim the mobile from LG and still got the problem. I would like to know the statistics of the user.
If your guess is right, you will get a good unit with a 95% probability.
Sounds good, no?
Confirmed here in Netherlands people indeed got back a new phone with same issues.....
I got the g2x...and can confirm that my phone is not defective...works great..

i'm still using stock rom with v10b..never face the reboot issues
p/s this phone is really great!!
thank all guys, if I got a good phone at the beginning, I would not feel like this.
I'm in Thailand and I bought this phone on May 7, 2011 for 20,900 baht (~680 USD)
When Samsung Galaxy S2 is released, the price down to 15,900 baht (~520 USD) within a month.
The point is I got a problem phone. That means I can't use phone well along 1 month.
Feeling like I throw away 160 USD to LG for free.
for almost a month i didn't have problems but in the recent time it started to behave strange... today i had my second reboot...
i'm not getting some sms messages at all... however the sender got's message that it was sent... sometimes they call me, but my phone doesn't make any sign of it, but at the other end it is ringing...
kinda strange behaviour, not I am the only one with these calling and sms bugs...
the charging is also crap, somtimes i just charge it, and the charging indicator is tuck at some value, and the phone is really hot... then i restart it, and the value just jumps higher, and a temperature of the phone gets ok...
the charging problem seems a hardware issue... i'm thinking on sending it back... but I don't know what else to buy... this one has all the features i need, sgs2 and sensation are too expensive for me... so i'm hoping that lg will do something in the summer... otherwise i'm sending it back :S
My phone started rebooting recently. Yesterday it rebooted twice and tonight it shut down causing me to miss the alarm.
Before this it went 2 months without any reboots.
Wtf?
Installed anything recently?
Flash 10.3 update maybe?
I just heard an information from Thai webboard.
He said that the warranty of 2X can let the user claim it for only one time.
That means you cannot claim it again if the new one got problem again.
Suck LG
I have no issues either so I can't imagine having these reboots is like.
They said the same thing for the VIP service here in Netherlands. Max 3 swaps, But some people already did swap #4

Try to format your external SD. Upgrade to Fr18Rom. If the problem cannot fix. Return the phone to LG. It‘s hardware issue.

I am sure that
- ROM cannot solve this problem
- It MIGHT be Hardware problem, but no clue can confirm this (most of people still believe it's software problem)
I think some buggy apps and buggy kernel let your phone reboot or sleep dead.
Hello,
I've recently started having a strange issue with my Galaxy Note. The screen starts to ranomly flicker like crazy and then the device turns off. When I restart the phone it shows that I have 1% battery... which is not true because if left alone the phone starts to "magically" charge on its own over the course of the next 15-30 minutes. I've read that the flickering screen occurs when the battery is low and the screen tries to maintain its brightness, but this isn't my case as i've had this happen even at 80% battery charge.
Has anyone encountered this problem before? I've already tried restoring to factory settings to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance !
Yep, I experienced this last month. I had my galaxy note for just over one year when I started to have this problem.
Sent it back to Samsung and they fixed it free under the two year warranty (EU law). It seems to be an issue they are aware of. My battery now lasts a couple days and everything is back to normal. 4 day turn around for the repair straight to my door.
Give Samsung customer service a call A.S.A.P.
Good luck!

Thanks for the reply! I will contact them immediately and hope to get things fixed as soon as possible.
I'm actually thinking of selling it in favor of an S2, as this is the second time my note breaks down. Everyone with S2 doesn't seem to have a single problem

The S2??? I would prefer the S3 or Note 2. Jelly bean will probably be the last update for the S2 and possibly the N7000!
Make sure when you call the service department that you explain the issue as you have here on the forum... Don't say that you think the battery is gone... As with my repair it wasn't the battery... They said they changed a chip set or something like that.... Plus even if it is the battery, they are more likely to just replace it for free if you plead ignorance!
P.S. The best way to say thanks is to use the "thanks" button next to my post!

Hm, this is what is now happening to me as well ... Not cool, will see, whether it lasts, or it was just temporary ..., as it looks to me it happens when I leave Wifi switched on.
Edit: The SGN started to do it all the time, it is fine only while charging, looks like battery is going to dye ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2061307&highlight=flickering, so looking for replacement .

Dear bro..
My note n7000 have same issue.. Did you got it fixed? Help me please...
New battery. Why don't you read what is written before?
hello everyone,
just a quick question really, has anyone else been suffering from random reboots?
My T seams to have a mind of its own, for days on end it wont reboot, but sometimes it will reboot 3 times before I can walk to my train ( 20 mins )
I've noticed the reboots to be more common when im walking or on the move ( and listening to music ) but it does do it other times as well.
this isn't the only issue I've had with this T, I sent it off last month because it wouldn't charge when the phone died completely.
anyone have any ideas?
It seems like some sort of a hardware problem. You should request a replacement if it's possible. The phone shouldn't behave like that of course.

I figured as much. I'm getting quite frustrated with having to keep sending it off. this is the first phone ive bought in recent years that isn't an iPhone and there's been nothing but issues.
it makes me sad. fingers crossed I get one back with an unlockable bootloader
Did you root it? if so which rom/kernel.
If not then have you tried repairing it with pcc? Might save sending it off for several days

i have rooted/flashed many times. and this was my assumption when I noticed the reboots. but I have also repaired and returned to stock with no luck. as for the Kernel, because of my locked boot loader i'm on the Stock Kernel.
thanks for the suggestion though
If you've already repaired via pcc, then it needs to go for service.

Hi,
The touchscreen of some Z1's seem to be leading there own lives, tried several softwarerepairs with 4 devices, but without any result. Hasn't anything to do with cases or usage, because they're clean devices, some of them brand new.
Anyone has these same problems, and maybe have a sollution?

I've had tons of issues with this phone and I've only had it for five months or so. I got my money back and could keep the phone so.
I'm leaving Sony since they just don't work any good nowadays, too much problems for a high end phone.
I've had .761 before and I found that to work best. Some random reboots and rare touchscreen issues. Sure it ain't good that either but that's the best I've tried.
Today I have to press powerbutton to light up the screen, press it again to turn it off and then I can turn it on again and start doing what I wanted if someone calls with my screen off? Well I can't answer thoose calls since the touchscreen freaks out.

Problems that you describe are not any of that i have, to bad for you .
I'm about to buy the xperia z1 C6903.
I've read quite much in troubleshooting section...
First issue encountered was cracked display because of nothing, then the yellow tint issue, quite ahead the touchscreen problem and then after unlocking your bootloader the camera was no longer functional.
The seller told me that the phone will bring kitkat 4.4.4 on by the default.
Any suggestions? Advices? Are those problems related to building dates/zones/countries/ serial numbers? Thanks in advanced people.
Anyone? Come on guys.
I'm on my deadline to buy this phone, and can't get answers about it? ?
I'd say the chances of getting cracked display is pretty thin. My Z1 has the yellow tint issue (not that noticeable with the crappy viewing angle) but I bought this back in 2013, almost a year now so Sony have most probably fixed that issue with the newer batch, plus you can use white balance. Touchscreen problem is likely hardware related but some people have said that an update fixed it for them. Camera works with unlocked bootloader no problem now.

I bought my Z1 with 4.4.2 shipped last May, that is .757 FW. This is the top of my choice because of its awesome features. It has yellow tint, but can be calibrated with white balance, which is awesome. :good: Just the last update (.108) gave me crappy problems like random times, it doesnt follow what i touch. Only to fix is off the screen, then on. Already submerged in pools, not bent, no scratch. Of course i take care of it. Its your choice.
Bought mine 2 weeks ago
No touch screen issues
Latest 4.4.4
No yellow tint
No regrets

It's important to highlight something you just said.
"Android L" are we getting this update? For real?
The z1 ima bout to get brings 4.4.4 right out of the box. I was impressed about that.
