[Q] Occasional hang ups and force closes - Sony Xperia ZL

Hi, i have had this problem about occasional hangups and fc's after the ota update, my ZL works for a few hours or minutes, then it just hangs or gets a force close issue on the home launcher or any other app open at the time. Ive had my zl for 4 days now and i restarted it about 20times already in the last 3 days.
Anyone have this same problem?

Nope, Haven't had this problem, which version of the zl do you have? Mine's c6502
edit: Might because of the update that you are having these problems, either factory reset your phone and see if that helps

Well as with phone reset after Any update..

rooting it before updating ota would have failed, so guessing you rooted after updating. Did you try factory resetting otherwise, you might need to flash stock build again....

Problem after OTA Update

Hi guys,
i've searched in the forum but nobody has got the same problem.
Two days ago i have received the notify about the update and i've launched it. At the first time the process is unsuccessful so i've rebooted in recovery mode and i launched it from there. It seems all ok but when i run video player or youtube or a game the phone freeze itself and reboot. I've tried to start a benchmark(e.s. quadrant), thinking that the problem was a wrong gpu drivers installed but in this case everything is working.
My cell was rooted with boot unlocked through htc.dev and till the update it was perfect.
Someone has ideas?
Thansk to all

[Q] Problem with updating to 4.2

Hello there, I have a problem.
I have Samsung Galaxy Nexus, Takju, build JZO54K, version 4.1.2
I'm in Slovakia, O2 provider (don't know if that helps)
Today(November 19) I've got notification that I can update to 4.2 (same thing happened four days ago(November 15)), so I started updating.
I saw the icon of Android guy, with some blue wires or something. Than the icon changed, the Android guy was lying and there was red triangle with exclamation mark in it.
Did it happen to anyone else? Is there some problem with my phone or should I just wait and the update will eventually arrive?
Sorry for my english, and thank you for your help
problem updating to 4.2
Are you rooted?

No. I would like to be updated automatically, I don't want to make it manually if I don't have to. Because I would screw it up.
4.2 Update issue
It could be that the phone isnt accepting the phone over the OTA (OVER THE AIR) ive seen this issue before on android phone usually if it wont take it OTA the only other way flash it manually . you dont necessary have to root phone you can always look for the OTA UNROOTED Image which you can flash through fastboot

4.2 update issue

Try this.....boot the phone and go to settings >>>apps>>>all>>>>Google frameworks service>>>>>clear the cache AND THEN the data in that order....when you go back to check on the update it'll say last checked 12/31/69 you want to see that and then search for the update....that clears framework and helps pull the update to your device....I've used this method and it worked for me with ICS after 3-4 tries give it a go and let us know what happens

I did that and the same thing happened again. The problem is not in that I don't see the updated, problem is that it won't install. Updating starts and about halfway through the red triangle appears and I'm screwed.

doing the same thing right now. i'm in germany so i'm not sure if that's what's causing the slow download speed 500Mbps link @ a convention center, but i'm at 416MB out of 617MB and very very very patiently waiting.
it's good to hear that you only ran into that small issue. i'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks!

Welcome to XDA!
I'm downloading it on my computer at home right now but I was in a rush to get to work. Looks like I'll have to wait until my lunch break to flash this, haha.
Also I see you're from Wasilla! Enjoying the weather? (I'm originally from Fairbanks)

First post here as well. I was rooted on stock, and this flashed flawlessly. Not 1 problem. Thanks!
ran the update, installed cwm and the phone works flawlessly minus one issue. gaming has become laggy. anyone else with studder or lag issues?
Aww man. It figures, I just finished flashing another rom like, about 18 hours ago. Now with finals coming up, I don't have time to do this one! Oh well, I guess I have something to do AFTER finals then, hahaha.

Is your power saving mode on? I've always found it makes so many things laggy, unfortunately. Might be enabled by default on the rom. Worth a look.
Great community here. Yesterday I was non-rooted ICS. Today I'm rooted JB with Wallet.
My phone just got 1000% better.
First of all, I appreciate all the Devs hard work bringing these Roms to us! :good:
I was running rooted UCALH9. Updated to this JB via Odin and all SEEMED good. Problems I had:
1) Play Store FC's - FIX - I went into Application Manager and removed updates for the Play Store app, which reverted it back to the default Play Store app. This fixed my problem. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT UNINSTALL!
2) Rom Manager - I would get root user authentication error when trying to Fix Permissions. Everything else in Rom Manager worked. No fix at this time.
3) Gallery - None of my pictures were showing up. This is even after clearing caches. I am convinced it's because I can't Fix Permissions, but what do I know... No fix at this time.
Any help would be appreciated!
Damn I had that same Play Store FC problem yesterday -- I wish I'd have figured that out. I ended up doing factory reset lol.
I receive same fix permission error as you, but I rebooted into recovery to do it.

You didn't happen to play with the camera at all, did you?
I can live with the Fix Permissions via CMW, so that would clear up 2 out of 3 of my problems. All I need is a fix for the Gallery problem, and I can go back to Official JB.
Thanks!
Howl long was the flash?
I'm inside Odin on flashing system.img.ext4 right now and it stays there which looks like about 20% for last 10 minutes with no forward movement.
How long do I need to wait before I consider something is wrong with flash process?
Changing cable to Samsung one did the trick if you are in the same situation.

If you are talking about flashing the root injected JB i post, yes you can flash it after upgrading and no it won't wipe anything in data, everything should be preserved for you.
Weather here sux.... Hovering slightly above 0 degrees with 80 mph winds for the last week so add on the wind chill factor and u can only imagine... And no snow yet.
So far no other issues with this rom. Seems to run perfectly. Now just waiting for someone to write a power menu options and enable stock tethering script =P

You might try wiping data for gallery app and I think it's media storage app...see if that helps with gallery.

I kinda miss the added features from the rom I was on frosty jb but I'm adding things here and there, wish we had multiview seems cool but I'm just waiting for the 4.2 roms to start coming out but so far not too bad, except the flash counter thing, but I'm happy with it so far just need someone to put out a hd theme like the one I had on my phone before but that to will come, also glad that the 4.2 camera with photosphere still works that feature is cool

Touchscreen stopped working - reflash kernel fixed it

Hi,
Been using an Xperia M since Feb 22, and yesterday I experienced a touchscreen 'crash' for the first time: It seems as if no touch is detected. I panicked and eventually reflashed kernel and reinstalled CM (as per this) - problem solved (but lost data).
Just now the problem happened again and I reflashed kernel only, which fixed it.
I'm a noob, so what's going on here?
1) This is a software problem, right? Since reflashing kernel fixed it.
2) Is this some kind of problem with the CM build I'm using (see link above)
3) Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening?
Thanks for any help!
Well the same thing happened again. Kernel re-flash did NOT fix it this time.
Does anyone have any idea how to prevent this from happening? And anyone who may be able to explain why this happens?
Thanks for any insights
EDIT: A few reboots later it's fixed again. (just reflashed kernel). The previous times rebooting did NOT help.
in deveoloper options have you set the animations and transistions and durations to 0 ? i found this caused my touchscreen on my old x10 running cm10 to stop working
Sent from my C1905 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
No I haven't set those options
Ok, so, some updates.
I switched from PecanCM's CM11 build to FreeXperia (311), but the problem still happened, just a few hours back.
Maybe it's just some app that's not playing nice or something, but I have very few apps, and nothing weird, so I don't know what it could be.
Anyway, turns out that if I reboot the phone through Flashtool when the touchscreen is frozen, it FIXES it.
But if I "reboot" by removing and replacing the battery, or through SMS TASKS, this does NOT fix it.
Maybe this is useful to someone out there, and I'll post here if I ever figure out the problem
Well, maybe it's a hardware problem after all...
After about a million reboots, the problem persisted this last time. It even persisted after re-flashing boot, re-flashing ROMs (CM11 / FXP311/312, as well as Sony stock).
Guess it's back to the store...
Unless anyone else has any suggestions??
Thanks in advance.
Sony repaired the phone in 10 days, pretty fast!
They replaced a bunch of components, the touch screen and related stuff, so it seemed.
It's working now. Hopefully I won't have the same problem in 3 weeks.
As a final thought: Whenever the problem was "active" the touch screen also didn't respond in CWM recovery, so maybe that was a giveaway that it was NOT a software problem, but a hardware problem?
Thanks and hopefully I won't be revisiting this thread...

I relocked it first. I unlocked with Flashtool and then could easily relock with Flashtool as well.
Anyway I wasn't charged a thing.

That's great. I thought that because you were giving your IMEI to Sony to unlock (at least with the official method), even if you relocked it they could still check.

Phone doesn't start after lollipop update

Hey guys,
My friend installed the new lollipop ota and his phone doesn't start normally anymore.
He says that some failure reports show up and that he might report the error/failure.
He has no rooted phone or something like that. He never tried.
What can he do? Ota installing manually from original recovery or such things like that?
Thanks guys

Send it for repairs. It is less than a year old and if he never rooted it is defective and his warranty is still good.

Yes, I think this is a Problem for Warrenty.
Try this first. Yesterday i resolved the problem by my self.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/bootl-loop-lollipop-update-t3016142
BUT TRY WARRENTY FIRST.
Phone gives error reports when booted Help i don't know if I have the same problem but my HTC One m8 went ballistic after I tried to install lollipop. For reference I have a sprint (unconnected) Htc One m8 Harmon Karman edition with Ł launcher as a launcher. I went to settings and found an update. The update download and then installed. When the phone went to boot it booted then instead of taking me to the home screen, it took me to a white page with a loop of error reports of apps not working. I can't get into the phone at all. I tried to boot in recovery but that did nothing. Please help I'm desperate.
