I saw a guy on SONY's forum that said his phone had a SOD with the new firmware, but then I saw his post was on 24 march and on the global sony update says that the update is from 25.03.

Has anyone with the new firmware had a SOD? This is fixed or not in the new firmware? Thanks

was out yesterday, let my phone get down 1% charge....got in and charged via pc USB upto 43%, disconnected and went to bed, got up this morning phone is now dead, tryed vol + start no affect. red LED light on, phone now plugged into wall socket...phone is completely dead....this is ridiculous on a brand new phone. i am going to contact SONY as my confidence level is zero with this phone after reading how many phones are affected on here, the phone will also not take calls i have just tried...the red light stays on even if i remove charger.

So this is the old version but UK still dont have update. If you have problem with sudden death, you should update via flashtool on your own any updated version (from Greece for example) and when sony will update uk version - you can get back to this one

Thanks for info...i have set software update centre setting for automatic downloads, so when it is available in UK i assume any new software will automatically be downloaded and my phone updated?

Just checked Sony website, latest software update like you said...

Latest available software: 10.1.A.1.434

Release date: 2013-03-25

How to find your device’s current software version:

Settings -> About phone -> Build number / version

clearly mine has not got this update yet, i hooked up direct to sony site, it still states i have latest software, obviously this update has not been rolled out in the UK yet, i will contact Sony...although i am not sure if this update 'fixes' the Xperia Z 'sudden death syndrome'.

And you cant turn it on? (vol up+power) Are You sure that was on the .434? Remember that pc companion and sony website says that you are on the latest software even if you are on .350 when its not avaiable in your country yet
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] exmatproton:
It is dead for sure. And i was on the .434 firmware for sure. Charging on USB AND powercable don't do anything. Led's are off all the time, no matter which connector, no matter which power source. Phone stays cold. Volume up + power doesn't work. Volume up + inserting usb for fastboot mode doesn't work. Volume down + inserting usb cable for service boot doesn't work. It is dead as, euhh, dead... .. .:crying: :eek: :(

---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 PM ----------

I think it was kernel related. Because it isn't even charging. I know that is handled at kernel level. When it was getting warm and went to heavy drainage, wanted to back up everything in recovery mode. I was able to enter recovery, was still trying to charge the phone. The recovery was finished. I rebooted the device but nothing happened. The LED was red at that time. So i just left it like this for 30 minutes. Tried to reset the battery (vol up + power), but when the battery restarted, nothing happened. And it is like this ever since. My god.....if i knew this before i bought this device, i would've waited for the HTC One... .. .:(

S3 same Problem as Xperia Z

you changed you phone for an old S3 and a 720p Display, why didn't you wait for the S4, this one is similar to the Xperia Z.

The S3 is an old slow phone, the S3 had the same Problem as the Xperia Z, "Google S3 sudden death"
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sosoro:
So the dead is related to software or hardware?

Because I have 2 Xperia Z with Carbon ROM, and after the discharged the red light was on and the phobe didn't respond to anything (charge,hard reset, etc). After 15 min the phones got back to normal.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Partitionator:
Today I rooted a Xpera Z with very low battery (only a few percent), at the reboot the device didn´t turned on, only the LED was red. So I thought the battary was emty and i let it for a few minutest, but I wasn´t able tu turn it on. (PC recognized nothing). As I unplugged the device the the LED was still red an i still couldn´t turn it on. I tryed pressing power and, power + vol up (both for a half minute), but no reaction and the flashmode didn´t worked to. So I left in in this state and waitet till the battery was empty (till the LED turned off). I plugged power in but the same happened again, LED turned red, and the screen was black, no chance to turn it on.

Then I wanted to try it again (this time with the flash mode) and unplugged it again and wanted to wait again till the LED turns off, after a few minutes i had the idea to drain the batary faster if i connect my USB-Flash drive via USB-OTG and a few seconds after i connected the usb-flash drive the LED turned off, i Pressed the Power Button a few times and each time the led blinked. Then i plugged I connected it again to the PC an after a few seconds it turned on.

Dead after update 4.3

Oh Dear, who said that, Xperia Z will not die after update of 4.3. My friend's phone is dead now thrice after updating the phone with 4.3 actually it didn't die with me before update, so i can say with my experience that the 4.3 is the problem or it had not solved the issue if it was existing before there.

I have no hope that Sony with its manufacturing plant in China can make such a phone that can be presumed to be water proof at all. They must take back themselves to Japan or somewhere else in the world.

I had an interest in Sony mobiles, which is now gone away i would still love Samsung, as they have no such major issues in their sets. Sony is a crap.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Partitionator:
oSamsung had a few sudden death bugs too ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
First, the post you quoted was over a year old.

Secondly, it does not even mention 4.3, being that 4.3 was not even released until 9 months after the post was written. It correctly states that firmware version 434 fixed the sleep of death bug that was present in the initial 350 firmware that the phone shipped with.

Finally, what has any of that got to do with the water resistance of the device and where it was manufactured?
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobprobert:
software update did not fix this issue for me. my wife got the z from t-mobile 3 months ago and it went dead one night. her battery was at around 50% when she went to plug it in and it died. none of the tricks worked. power and volume up did nothing. wouldn't vibrate wouldn't charge nothing. sent it in to sony for a replacement and got another in the mail. 2 days later same thing on the replacement device. thought maybe the charger was frying the device so i plugged it into an old samsung charger and nothing. left it plugged in overnight and the next morning it powered back on. i believe this is a hardware issue not a software issue or maybe the charger that came with her phone is defective.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talvigi:
OK THATS MY FAULT I DIDN'T GET THE .434, I THOUGHT IT IS 4.3

Please tell me the solution for the problem that damaged the phone,

If you have one,

I would like to mention that my phone's Red LED lights if i put it on charge for more than two or three hours but after 28 hours of charge the LED is still Red and the phone doesn't ON with any method i have tried.

---------- Post added at 10:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM ----------

BOB, you may be right the problem might not be in the software, because, Sony will have to understand that they are not Apple to fix the battery so tightly that for such dead problems some one would just pull the batt out and push it back to hard reset.

Now what should be done with many of the Sony devices which are lying dead with the same suddon death problem. Sony is not far being called a dead crap in the market

Hi all,

I've read many opinions about the best kernel and rom. Yes, this is very specific for everybody.

Somebody wants power, another eye-candy .... so my decision was to make a small test.

For this test I've used JB kernels and ROMs

I've used:

kernel

[JB]FeraKernel_V1.7v

[JB]FeraKernel_V1.7v

X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20

ROM

XPERIA_ Z_9.1.A.0.485-II + XPERIA Z-II ADDON

cm10-v9.3 + gapps-jb-20121011-signed

for testing AnTuTu benchmark v3.1.1, xperia X10i black, ROOTed, unlocked bootloader

phone was fully instaled, logged into google, facebook, skype, whatsapp account.

I wanted to test it normal installed phone for daily use not fresh and clear installation.

I made aprox. 3 tests and choose the best resulst (the results were +- 100 points)

I am sorry but due to I am newbie I cannot attach pictures directly between text, so please see attachment

Results:

01 and 02 pictures

[JB]FeraKernel_V1.7v and XPERIA_ Z_9.1.A.0.485-II _____ [JB]FeraKernel_V1.7v and cm10-v9.3

03 and 04 pictures

[JB]FeraKernel_V1.7nv and XPERIA_ Z_9.1.A.0.485-II _____ [JB]FeraKernel_V1.7nv and cm10-v9.3

05 and 06 pictures

X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20 and XPERIA_ Z_9.1.A.0.485-II _____ X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20 and cm10-v9.3

07 and 08 pictures

I've read many threads and know, the best kernel, ROM is mere vision but what is your opinion for my tests?

How to increase the power?

What is your the optimal kernel x ROM?

I've used X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20 and XPERIA_ Z_9.1.A.0.485-II it is nic, eye-candy, but X10_4.1.X_cmx10_BootManager_v20 and cm10-v9.3 is more faster for me - I mean the reaction of application. The are not so big delays between tapping on icon ane lauchning apps.

May be somethin wrong, so I kindly ask for help :)

If you have any other tips for kernel, ROM I'd like to test ;)

If you install from the play store are you copying the apk from /data/app then uninstalling the keyboard? Then move to /system/app and setting the correct permissions, then rebooting? I would probably even clear dalvik-cache too if you are getting fc.

1. To install QSlide, would I follow the same process (boot into recovery mode, select the QSlide zip in install mode)?

2. Is it safe to remove the SnowJB zip file from the internal storage now that I have flashed it?

Thanks in advance!

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Joecascio2000:

2. Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. If something happens and you can't boot up having a ROM still on your sd card is always good.

Yes, and yes. I would still recommend making a backup before flashing qslide. Always better to play it safe.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] pivotraze:
Thank you both very much :)

Also, for Google Now, is the update safe to do? I read (although I don't remember if it is with SnowJB) that it isn't safe. Is it not safe, or...?

Oh! And my city is getting LTE pretty soon. Will SnowJB work with LTE? And do I need to Factory Reset when install The QSlide Function? I would imagine not, but better safe than sorry.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jimi_pooh:
I upgraded GN and I'm running fine. Lte works fine with snowjb. I simply wiped caches to apply qslide but did a backup to be safe before flashing.

Among all of the obvious things make sure light bleed is at a minimum. If you can use it before you buy download light bleed app from play store and test it at 100% brightness on black screen.
