the only thing i can recommend is repair via sony suite,
if that doesn't work, just send it back in for repairs.
it sounds like an internal storage issue. my incredible S did similar things shortly before it died.

Xperia TX freezing & restarting after JB update

hi everyone....
my brother updated his xperia tx to jelly bean using flash tool before 3 hours... nothing showed in flashtool or the phone about any problem in flashing
in the last hour the phone started to restart & freeze
it's freezing suddenly & you cannot do anything but taking out the battery
can a factory data reset help?? also we have a backup on PC companion so is it recommended to return it on the phone??
Try repair option in PCC.

Did you do the repair or did you restore the backup?
Click on the update software option and then when it says you have the latest software click on repair my firmware

which one! I asked if you repaired or restored a backup.....
If you repair the phone it should be exactly like a factory shipped phone.
My only other thing to say will be have you got anything in your sd card (Both internal or external) that may be causing this? Any init.d scripts that reduce voltage etc...try deleting the contents of the sdcards and repairing again. (Obviously back anything up you want to keep)

i did repaired twice from PC companion and did once i think from the phone itself, and i don't have Scards its only the phone internal storge..
when i did it first in flash tool it didn't give me any error and then i did repaired it twice from pc companion however whats strange in ICS i never had the reboot problem
and if i remember correctly it only delete the programs etc, but the photos/music etc it never left the phone with both options i did...
so you suggesting to also wipe internal storage and repair to see if it reboot or not? i already have back up for all stuff so it won't hurt to try
thanks alot really for helping and sorry for my bad english ^^;
If you have a backup then try it.
Have you got a bootloop or do you have some reboots? What i mean is, does the phone actually boot up and only reboot occasionally or is it just bootlooping?

I also have this problem with my LT30a. This started the very first time I flashed a Rom ( locked bootloader) that was meant for an LT30p. Sense then I have reverted back to my stock ROM, still have the issue but not so often.

so now i did wipe to internal storage and did repair and such now im facing new problem the phone turn off and and when i try to switch it on...it wont work i have to remove battery and insert it again to make it work, any idea?
How this end up? Anyone has find a solution for this problem? I have xperia t with same problem. The phone mostly freezes and restarts on long listings like fb/twitter feeds, messages...

[Q] Help with display of xperia v

Hi guys, i'm having a problem with my xperia v display
this problem started of nothing, without falls or anything.
Unlockedbootloader, rooted, using Xperia revelations rom with vKernel.
Someone help?
Does it only occur when the system is running - or does the display look like that even on boot screen and recovery?

It occurs even on boot screen and recovery
Take a screen shot using the phone itself and see if it occurs on that when you view the image on your PC.
Can you also post the screen shot here

Seems normal
Have you tried reflashing the Rom you're using or flashing stock again? If this does not work, I suggest sending your phone for servicing.
Welcome. I had the same problem as you. Unlocked bootloader, but I had a copy of TA after restoration, handed the phone back to the store. Display was replaced under warranty because it was a fault the display.

Xperia Z restarts

Hi my friends.
Today was very bad day for me. First my bird died, then my phone stops working and i stuck in elevator. I need your help. Afternoon i want to call my buddy for lunch. Everything starts after lockscreen. When i call him phone wont connect to operator then it says no connection and stuck at dialer. I push power button to get lockscreen and it frozen for while then it locks and i opened lockscreen. When i saw launcher phone resets and every time it resets at SONY logo. I flashed my device 3 times or more. I used .233 . 230 and 4.3 . Every time battery shows wrong percentage. Phone opens when i plugged to charge. But if it has sim card it resets. When i disconnect from charger it resets. I try to open USB DEBUGING for install recovery to reset battery info but when i check USB debuging it resets again. You guys have any idea for that problem.
Did you try clean installation?

Try pushing your simcard back in place, sometimes it'll get out of place, and then you're phone won't connect to network and reboot every time it thinks simcard is removed

Oh, and battery will show right percentage again if you fully charge it

Looks like the is some issue with Sim assembly or can be a software/hardware issue.
As all methods have not worked take the phone to a service center and get it diagnosed
ive got the reboot problem too,
try to use philz touch, go to mount and storage, mount system, factory reset,
go back to mount, mount system, flash rom
keep stamina mode off, so far that has kept my rom stable ( tried to turn stamina mode on and caused a reboot after an hour or so)
im not sure if this a final solution, but its what i am trying
Yesterday i got my device from service. They change full body. I didnt understand what problem couses it. Now everything works fine.

You can try this.
You will need root access for it and usb debugging enabled
Tried it. But with trial version of software you can only preview lost data and the full version is too expensive :/

Recovery mode to unlock forgotten PIN

Hi,
so i got my XZ1 compact today, started the android setup and immediately forgot the PIN to unlock the phone.
I tried to reboot into recovery for a factory reset (since its brand new, I have no data to backup), however Volume Up + Power does not boot into recovery mode (Volume Down + Power also wont work).
Is there another trick to get into recovery, maybe via USB ?

ADB's not playing nice with my XZ1C, probably due to no bootloader unlock. Is there a "Forgot PIN" option on the lockscreen?
IIRC, Sony stock firmware does not have recovery. Maybe try reflashing the phone using Xperia Companion or Flashtool?
A quick search gave me this
