here's the catch, when i had my phone on 4.1 the Xperia with Facebook feature worked flawlessly, syncing contacts photos calendar etc but now i decided to use it on 4.3 again and problems occured, first it's slow as hell, second i can't access Contacts or messages normaly there's a 10 - 15 sec delay or apps don't respond, the phone heats up fast and the sync doesn't, how to say this stops it keeps saying that it's syncing going but it does nothing. First i thought it maybe because i have a lot a friends on facebook but then a friend of mine has the exact phone and firmware and he has more friends of facebook but he doesn't experience any lag of sort or problems it works flawlessly. These problems a accuring for the past few days. I've tried factory reset, phone repair force reset the phone clear cache etc even left the phone on wifi for about 12 hours to hopefully sync completly ( i know alot of time ) still no hope more hickups and crashes. Also it sucks my battery very fast. Can this be a faulty hardware or ? Any type of help would be greatly appreciated cause i kida like the high resolution photos for my contacts, thx in advance guys

Hey guys, I need help, Im on GB with semaphore 2.7.4 kernel, and everything is working fine with some lags here and there.
Everything is working except facebook app and facebook messenger. In 90% when i start facebook app, phone starts to freeze, screen goes for a min, and then turns on with force close message for facebook. Then there is problem with facebook messanger, When people type me something, it write typing... , phone vibrates like when u receive msg on chat, but msg appear after 10 secs. Also when i send msg sometimes it delivers like 15 secs after i wrote it.
Btw, its not my WiFi connection, i got i5800 too, and its working pretty well on there. So I would really like if someone can help me solve this problem, since i use facebook messenger a lot. Thanks!
Hey man, I think that's just the apps. The exact same things happen on my I9000 on 2.3.6. Occasionally I don't get FCs on the Facebook app- but if you do, just press FC and try again, it should work fine enough. As for Messenger, its just slow in sending messages. Quite sadly :L
Yeah I know, but i really hate it to wait like a min so app can show force close message, and sometimes even after that its lagging. Oh and for messenger, my friend got SGS2, and it works great, sending instantly, no lags etc. It seems its something up to our phone...
Hi,
I had update the phone to the newest Lollipop update from Sony. At the beginning in the first 2-3 days the phone works wonderfull.Verry snappy and responsive.
But after those first days of joy the problems appeared.
The camera become very laggy. The battery drains in 7-8 hours and the phone is overheating. Even I keep the phone in my pocket, it becomes very hot without touching it.
And if I read something on my RSS feed, in about 5 minutes the battery drains 2-3%
I allready saw many people reported thoes esues and it seems that the only solution is a hard reset to factory default.
Witch I will do, because right now the phone is quite usefull and anoing.
My questions for you are:
1- is there any other method but resetting the phone?
2- how do I backup EVERYTHING from the phone? Contacts I can manage with pcCompanion, but how can I save all aps and their data? Games for instance...I'd like to keep my ingame progress.
I'm new to android comming from 5 years of iphone. On IOS this opertion was really simple due to a full backup on cloud. And after a reset - or switch to a new phone - everything was restored as it was from cloud.
Can I do the same thing on android? I wold prefer using google and cloud.
thanks
Google syncs all of your contacts automatically, so after the phone resets, simply log in to your google account and the contacts will be restored. You can do the same with photos/videos and music using google photos and google music. Google can also remember which apps you had installed and re-install them automatically, but you can't do anything about settings. Those will always have to be re-done manually.
I have noticed over some time that whenever my Google account syncs it causes my CPU to run over 90% and my phone to become extremely slow. I took off two factor authentication and readded my account after reading about it as a possible fix online and it still does it. I'm not sure if I should just bite the bullet and do a factory reset. Has anyone run into this problem before and have a possible fix for it? The issue makes the phone unusable for about 10-15 minutes sometimes.
This used to be a problem on my old phone HTC One M8 and after a factory reset it still did it which is why I'm hesitant to try this again. This makes me wonder if it is a possible account issue but I can't seem to figure out what.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Every phone or rom install I've ever had does this if you sync everything at the same time, a factory reset will most likely not change this. Now if its just doing this randomly like when gmail grabs your emails or something small like that then there might be a problem but if you go into the accounts menu and press "sync now" that's normal.
odd.. i always have everything enabled to sync, and have never experienced this issue. on every android phone that ive owned as well. the nexus 6 has never slowed down while syncing stuff here.
@StykerB do you know of any fix for this? I would think the Nexus 6 has the hardware to support background syncing without suffering from a slowdown.
@StykerB this occurs in the background. I don't ever press sync now.
Well the slow down comes from the syncing using your cpu as much as it can which leaves less or no cpu for the rest of the phone so if the syncing just arbitrarily used less cpu then you're phone would run smoother but the syncing would theoretically go slower.
But if the slowdowns are from just regular background syncing (you aren't force syncing everything) then a factory reset might fix it but try deleting and re-adding your account(s) first
I already readded but it still does it sometimes. However there are times (like now) where the phone runs great. I just wish that it would be like this all the time.
I'm running 5.1 stock. I've had the turbo for a while with no problems, but recently random apps keep crashing for no apparent reason. I haven't made any major changes to the phone or installed any new apps but it keeps doing this. Textra will crash to the contact list screen after 3-4 seconds of looking at a contact thread. Yik Yak will close to the home screen with no error message after a few seconds. Facebook will open to the logo and a blue screen as if it's trying to load something but then it just crashes to the homescreen. The camera won't open and will give a message "Unfortunately, Photos has stopped.". Not every app does this either - Reddit Sync works fine, Fenix is ok, Stock Messenger is ok, snapchat will act up on occasion, and everything else is OK. This happened once before and I did a factory reset and everything was working fine for 2 weeks until it just started happening again. I cleared my cache partition with no luck. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this or know a potential fix? I've searched everywhere and I can't find anyone experiencing the same problems and if they are the problems are so vague I'm not finding them. I'm running 5.1 stock.

I got the same problem yesterday, I kept getting the "sorry blank has stopped" box over and over. Now the phone seemed to be dead. A couple times during the day it just went black and wouldn't start without a hard reboot. This morning it is completely dead, I missed my alarm because the phone seems to be bricked. Never had any issues with it, I've had it for like 6-8 months. Guess it's dead?
I have been experiencing a problem with my X4 lately. Suddenly, Google Apps such as Youtube, Google Chrome, Youtube Music, Play Store, even GMAIL started to crash. Out of the blue, they just close, sometimes they close and report that "app x stopped working", and often "Google Play Services stopped working" and this pretty much makes the cellphone unusable, the apps won't open anymore, not even a reboot would solve it. Sometimes apps as Facebook, Instagram, the Native Camera, even SETTINGS will crash. Following this crashes, sometimes the cellphone will just shut off the display and crash, only coming back after a forced reboot (BUT, as strange as it may seem, the long press on the power button works just fine and the display wakes but only showing shut off and reboot options).
I was experiencing this problem with the stock Android 9 ROM. I then removed my google account, wiped it, did a factory reset for a couple times, did not work. I flashed the stock ROM, but the problems only got worse. Then i flashed the Pixel Experience w/ Android 10 using the latest TWRP, same problems happened, with a clean installation, wiped everything. I used it for a couple of months, but the crashes were just increasing over time.
I then installed the Lineage OS 18.1 on Android 11 on my X4; Same thing, clean installation, wiped everything, removed all Google Accounts, flashed the latest GAPPS. Boy oh boy, it was smooth like butter on the beginning (i recommend this ROM very much), one week goes by and the same crashes come back again, every once in a while. I just can't figure what could be causing the crashes, same issues with 4 different roms!
If anyone please has experienced this or know how could i fix it, it would help me very much. Thank y'all for your attention.
Next time it happens i will try and take a screenshot to post here.
Did you ever get a solution to this? I am having the same issue.
