In call number not being displayed - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I upgraded the Xperia Z to 4.2.2 OTA (rooted and dualrecovery installed)a couple of days ago. Everything is fine with the exception of one thing. During a call, the phone doesn't display the numbers that are being pressed, for example, when I dial into a conf line, to enter the conf code I cant see what numbers are being pressed. Does anyone else have the same issue or is it just me. I dont want to reset the whole phone only to discover that its an issue with the actual firmware.
Appreciate any help.
Cheers

Backup your files and
repair it with Sony PC Companion, or Sony Update Service or flash another FTF file. (wipe everything) Do a clean install.

I am not entirely sure what all your post means (Bad google translate?)
However, my advice is to repair your phone using pccompanion.

Hey i also have the same problem with my Xperia T [LT30p]. I just got the phone when 4.1.2 was already released so i installed it immideatily. But now it is very frustrating because the phone randomble reboots, i just factory resetted it and it was normal for 1 minute and then an reboot.
I made a stock attached to 3, and so far no reboot

pc companion does not help, I did everything I could, I downloaded all the firmware and flasher
Hi!
I also have the same problem with Xperia T. The phone keeps restarting many times daily. After rebooting It loses very offen sim-card and wi-fi function. 1 month ago it was flashed to 9.1.A.0.489 by PC Companion.
I tried and it doesn't work:
- flashing again 9.1.A.0.489 with PC COMPANION and SUS
- flashing again 9.1.A.0.489 with Flashtool
- flashing 9.1.A.0.492
- back to 7.0.A.3.197
- [TWRP]Stock Kernel on 9.1.A.0.489
Any idea?
i found a new thing. The phone is stable in "flight" mode.

dead NFC and rear led on all roms

hey,
I had 4.2.2 in my 5503. Couple days ago I decided to upgrade it to 4.3 using flashtool, because there wasn't official 4.3 for my region yet . After that, I noticed my led and NFC are dead. Led isn't working (no flash when making pics, not working as a flashight). NFC unchecks just after when I click on it. Tried: downgrade, delete/rename usf (like in xperia z), many others official roms. tried fix and upgrade by SUS and SPCC. No changes. Also tried CM11 4.4, but still led is dead, NFC option can't be even marked. Now I'm on rooted 4.3. Any ideas how to bring them back? And no, backup doesn't exist
waw that's not cool.. do you erase the whole system when you flash?
Made in ZR
Yes. I thought it is better to have clean instal. Habit of installing roms on old phone. Everything else seems to work fine. I'm out of ideas.
hmm it's weird dude. well I suggest :
ensure that you bootloader is locked
do a fresh full flash with all wipes
do a reset in settings > backup & reset
then go into service menu > service tests > flash led
for the service menu, at the stock dialer, type : *#*#7378423#*#*
if it still doesn't work after this, I'm afraid this is hardware related.

Did that many times. To have clear conscience I connected phone to another usb. formated, flashed .67 with wipes. After reset, in service menu led is still dead. connected to pc, updated with SUS to .569. and same story. I'm sure they were working before 1st flash and upgrade. If this is hardware problem, should NFC unchecks itself just after I click on it?
Ehh I suppose, I have to deal with it. There is no cure for my zr
ps. in /system/app/ I can see ncf.apk & nfc.odex only. That's it, right?
well I don't know mate, did you ever unlocked the BL? It may be drm related also
Made in ZR
NFC firmware needs update?
I got my ZR a few weeks ago, it came with 4.1.2 on it.
Straight away I hooked it up to PC companion and it updated to 4.2.2, during the first reboot I got a message on the screen for quite a while: "Updating NFC firmware"
I then had problems and thought it was due to 4.2.2, I downloaded & flashed a 4.1.2 ROM, once again, on the first reboot I got the "Updating NFC firmware" message.
Then I realized that the problems weren't due to 4.1.2 and flashed 4.2.2 again, once again got the "Updating NFC firmware" message.
This might not be much use to you but it seems to me that the NFC firmware needs to match the version of Android you're running.
Sorry, no idea how to update it manually, just thought it's something you might like to investigate.
Maybe start here ....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284166
Ilko, yes. BL was unlocked. I had thought, drm can be involved with it. If yes, I'm pretty ***. I don't see any other explanation. many official roms. repairs by sus and companion. checked in buildprop editor, and everything looks ok.
alan573819, when I bought mine it was 4.1.2 also. Couple weeks later upgrated it to 4.2.2. but I don't remember that NFC dialog. I just don't remember, so it doesn't mean I never had it it was long time ago. I know that topic. Believe me, I know them all I'm silent reader xda since se k800i. Always found answers without asking. Until now.. I had to register, because no1 have same problem. with z, there is problem only with NFC (no1 complains about led), and they can fix it by deleting usf. It doesn't work for me. anyway, on 4.2.2 I had no problems with NFC or led. everything worked perfect until I decided to upgrade it to 4.3 with flashtool.
my phone was unlocked, rooted, had .310, .67, .569 for at least 3 different regions, had CM11 4.4, was repaired and upgraded by SUS and Companion. No changes. It just has to have something with drm, because I don't believe that hardware was broken during update. drm can explain it. but.. that's weird if NFC and especially led has something to do with it.
okay, then did your ever relocked it? backed up TA? restored it?
Made in ZR
yes, I have relocked zr.
Like I said before, I didn't make any backups. Didn't expect any problems so I just wiped and flashed my phone. On the other hand- who expects them? . I can risk with my own phone. If I do something for others, I always do backups, double checks etc.

Xperia T - restarts after flashing new firmware

Hey.
This is my first thread so welcome all. If this issue was fixed or if there is similar thread please close it down.
I have Xperia T that was branded by Vodafone DE. I updated it once from the standard firmware (I think it was the 4.1.2 android) to 4.3 (9.2.A.0.295), everything was fine, except that on two occasions the screen just could not be forced to turn on. Everything was working, sound, calls etc. I just had to hard reset it to enable the screen. Once when I was receiving call I could not answer it, the screen was jumping, blinking and I could not do anything with it. Hard reset helped again. I thought that those were bugs from the 9.2.A.0.295 but now I'm not so sure.
I downloaded the newest version of flashtool and the UK 9.2.A.1.199 firmware from this site, not branded, not modified. I unlocked the phone using the instructions on the sony site but since i didn't wanted to root the phone I locked it again. I flashed the mentioned UK firmware without problems and then the phone started to randomly reset itself. Usually it is getting hot under the camera and it resets mainly after using facebook or basically internet. It mostly resets when my phone is in the pocked. I tried using pc companion's repair option, used the firmware from Italy, Greece and almost all 9.2.A.1.205 except the Bond release. I think it's not the firmware, I've reverted to the 9.2.A.0.295 to no success. There are from one to six resets a day at random hours. Did someone had this problem? Is it related to the firmware flashing or could be just a coincidence and my xperia is dying from motherboard\battery failure? I replaced my sim card with new one. It also happens with or without the sd card.
Hi, the most common restart's are:
a) Sim card ( you change that)
b) Software ( you change that)
c) Very rare SD card ( try to do that) get the SD out end boot the phone. Edit .. you all ready do that.
d) End must common is the Battery ( first try de c) version ,then if fail , you need to buy a new battery end try.
e) motherboard (well new phone? )
This not exactly the order, but from i have read , point d , b ,a , are the order .
So Good Luck.:good:
I think it could be the battery or the board, since it happens on all firmwares. The thing I would like to know is that using flashtool for an example could somehow damage the phone or the battery? I never found any info on this.

I have heard that upgrading to 4.3 could actually damage the battery. So yes, it is possible.
I don't know the reason tho

My Z1 Problems

Hello everyone, here's my first post in this great forum and I'm happy to be a member of it.
My phone is Xperia Z1 C6903 (LTE), I recently rooted it and unlocked its bootloader. I flashed it for about four or five times to KitKat 4.4.2 and its build number is 14.3.A.0.757, but two days ago I figured out that when I press the power button, it takes about five seconds more to show the unlock screen, and even it takes till 7 seconds to show the caller name and number.
At first, if anyone faced an issue like this and solved it, could you please help me?
Second, I heard that one of this forum ported 4K from Z2 for Z1 and Z1 Compact, and it needs Deodex Rom.
How can I install or I don't know it's exact verb, how can my phone have Deodex Rom?
That's my phone's info:
Xperia Z1 C6903, KitKat 4.4.2 (14.3.A.0.757), rooted with unlocked bootloader, has CWM, has Busybox.
Any other info you need?
Could anyone help me?
It's in the same first page of the Stock Rooted Rom which you probably have used to root your phone. Download the Deodex flashable package and flash it from recovery and clean dalvik-cache.
Post 1 HERE
Probably this will also help your problem of the delay of the screen as you have to wipe Dalvik-Cache.
Start from deodexing your Phone and check if the problem persist.

Xq-at52 not certified devixe

Hi everyone,
Need some serious help please,
I have a xqat52, bought in January 21.
In the UK, on three the handset would not go into 5G.
After reading up, I decided to flash xq-at51 successfully to the UK rom. Everything was working lovely...
Received OTA updates and never had issues with updates or Google.
Device was certified and google pay and bank apps work fine.
2 weeks ago I received ota update and since then my device is no longer certified.
1 week ago received another ota now build 58.1.A.5.507 and device is still not certified.
I tried experia companion full repair with no luck, still same issue.
I sent the handset to Sony Uk for repair, and they factory reseted it back to stock XQat 52, but the device still shows as not certified and bank app and google pay no longer works,
at this point I am thinking in rooting my device and use magisk....
my bootloader is locked, never unlocked (i checked and so did Sony) but I am able to unlock it...
what do you guys think I should do, I want it to be a XQat51 for Uk and have it certified or rooted hidden.
any advise will be really appreciated, and this will bring back memories of rooting android when i had my HTC and where it all started
Thanks in advance
Update.
Went the rooted way. Not looking back.
Not so simple, but we'll worth it
Plenty of google search.
Android Kitchen which I didn't use before
Didn't really have a choice to get my 1ii working properly again.
All repairs / flash stock did not help no matter what I flashed UK / eu dual Sim / single Sim
Back to full stock from Sony HK version still didn't help
My android is now how I want it.
Shame on Sony for not helping and still waiting for a response.
Google store device now certified again.
Google pay working again.
All banks working
Fingerprint working
Netflix l3 not l1 but I don't use anyway.
Cinema Pro and photo Pro working
4k creator mode and Sony dynamic vibration working
Full root permission and able to customise like I use to when I 1st started with kitkat
Android is going down the apple way unfortunately, not so open anymore...
Good luck to anyone doing the same,

I'm glad for you.
I just bought a second hand XQ-AT51, and didn't noticed when I bought it that the Wi-fi and Bluetooth are not working.
And also that the bootloader is unlocked, and it seems that fast charging is not working.
Everything works fine as far as I see (camera, features).
I don't know what the previous owner did.
I didn't find anybody saying about Wi-fi and Bluetooth not working after Bootloader unlock/root Xperia 1 ii.
I tried locking bootloader and Xperia Companion software repair, same version 58.1.A.5.507 (as I see the latest) before repair and after.
Nothing changed.
Then I unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp as recovery (probably not necessary in my case) and flashed the stock software with Flashtool, latest (the same as before) from xperifirm. But I got some messages some things didn't flashed (didn't save the message).
Still the same.
Do you have any idea about DRM keys needed (as I know older Xperias pretty much lost the camera without backup and restore to some files)
Or do you have any "spare" backup files that I might need and work for different devices?
Thanks!

I flashed xq-at51 from Xperia with flasher.
I don't think drm will affect Bluetooth or WiFi?
Mine are lost anyway, once bootloader unlocked its gone! I was prepare to loose them.
Connectivity issues you mention I
Never had that problem despite locking unlocking bootloader and flashing various rom xqat52 HK or Asian and xq-at51 UK and EU.
Might be something else you are experiencing on the phone directly , run a sony test through the app "support" it has a connectivity section. Might give you a better idea before flashing anything else.
I think you can also do it via phone codes *#.......
Google it, it will enter service menu, you can test your handset this way too.
Thanks for the suggestions, I didn't think of trying Support.
But forgot to say, in the Settings at About it says MAC address unavailable for both Wi-fi and BT.
With code *#*#4636#*#* it says Wi-fi Mac address 02:00:00:00.....
As I found some older forums for other devices with about the same issue and being from flashing not proper firmware, I honestly don't know what's going on, since I flashed the stock firmware again, maybe some files are not flashed again because I'm flashing over the same firmware.
Hopefully, I will find a solution.

Latest ver of flasher ? V52
With flasher, if I remember correctly
I chose command a android reboot
N to dump (did once the 1st time as a backup)
I did choose partition persist
No to everything else.
Maybe try and repair with companion make sure it gets back to factory stock rom with correct variant.
Do a factory reset within the phone
(I know I did several, after each flash)
Then reflash with flasher, also might be worth redownloading a clean rom and put in a new folder, so it's clean and not changed.
Add flasher (latest) to that folder and do another clean install.
The rapair tool from Sony failed few times on me, not sure why, but sony software somehow still knew my Xperia 1ii was originally a xq-at52 and would not repair / so I had to flash using flasher xq-at52 stock rom, then repair then flash back using flasher to xq-at51.
Sony repair if successful is your best bet... Once repaired properly you can do it again and again.
I just realised you mention flash tool, use flasher. Exe no issues...
Download from Xperia firm your rom. (always the same or higher)
Downloader flasher (latest)
Few files to copy straight into the same folder as the extracted Xperia firm folder.
Run the flasher. Exe
Follow instructions
Should flash everything correctly.
I bootloop mine and bricked few times...
Flasher rebooted it every time.

Thanks, I didn't knew about newflasher.
But I see that it's skipping persist (flashtool was also skipping persist)
Skipping persist_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin
And also
Skipping partition-image-LUN0_124936192_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin
And I read somewhere that it's skipping .sin that are not matching.
But maybe if I flash them I will solve my issue.
As I see older versions have the options to write or skip. Did you write it? If I write it I will lose attest keys? Because at mine it says Android Attest Key Provisioned after relocking the bootloader, but was Not Provisioned before.
I guess I have to backup persist.sin if I want to flash it and for that I need to root.
Do you think that flashing persist might solve my issues? Or it will give me more issues
