The only way to fix Xperia P problems after the jelly bean update!

After the jelly bean update my Xperia got slow, I could not answer phone calls, the call log took so much time to appear , I have tried uninstalling external softwares , reseting the phone , nothing worked. Finally I have downgraded the phone follwing the guidelines provided in this link - http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Android-development/GUIDE-How-to-Install-Jelly-Bean-ICS-Ice-Cream-Sand...
Now my phone is fast , gallery is working fine , I can receive phone calls , no useless chrome by default , the google search widget works fast , the overall performance is much better. So I would recommend people to downgrade their Xperia p to ice cream sandwich and stick with it. OLD is GOLD!

What is your build version now after downgrading to ICS? I could not download 6.1.1.B.1.54 from the list which was best to me.. Please let me know quickly, I'm having the same **bleep** problem in JB.

Everyone seems to be talking about the Jelly Bean update, however when I check for an update, it says my phone is up to date. Why is this?

It seems like every other RAZR Maxx has an update but mine. What the heck? lol

Same with mine - got in May. Says it is Factory Certified - factory tested
but never used. Claimed not a full charge yet it was 95% charged...what can
you do - other models were lesser in quality and features..interesting
that you had option to take update - I did not. My email accounts were not
receiving. Didn't try nav doc...Hope this one will be better.

Has anyone else still not received the Jelly Bean update?

Or am I the only one? I activated my phone on 12/30/12 and still have not received Android 4.1.1 as of 2/4/13! I know VZW is rolling out Jelly Bean over time, but this is ridiculous! I went to the Verizon store the other day, but they were of little help and told me to call Samsung!!! I routinely check the "software update" section on my phone, only to receive a "no update available" message. My phone is stock, but is one of the "developer edition" phones directly from Samsung that runs baseband version I535OYLG1. Still, I don't think that should make a difference, given that I have a Verizon activated SIM card and have not done anything to the phone (apologies to the moderator for previously mentioning terms banned by Verizon TOS... terms have since been removed from this post). The only thing that's different from the phones sold directly through Verizon (supposedly) is the unlocked bootloader. If anyone else is having the same, or a similar, experience, I'd appreciate any advice... or at the very least, just respond to this message so that we can complain together

Without proper system information nobody can tell you anything. there could be any number of reasons why the download gets corrupted from virus scanners accessing the files and damaging them to your harddrive being damaged or fragmented to a bad network connection already corrupting it... Check al lthat stuff, turn off the pertinent components, clean up your drive.

Why is the Jelly Bean update FORCED on my phone using up my data?

Why is this update being FORCED onto my Droid Bionic? I woke up my phone to discover an update was happening when I was on data, but I have the option set to only update on WiFi. I tried switching to WiFi and the update stalled. So I rebooted on WiFi and the update resumed VERY SLOWLY. I have calls to make and some apps I need to use, but the whole phone is slow while the update is being downloaded. WHY DOESN'T IT GIVE ME THE OPTION TO UPDATE WHEN I WANT?

Thanks Ann, but I guess you're not understanding my situation. I'm at work. I can't plug it in (no plug with me). And it never gave me the option to install or defer installation, as I said. It just started on its own. I just spent a half hour with Verizon on the phone and they can't explain it either. It never gave me the option. I know how to use my phone.
I had it in Airplane mode at work this morning to save the battery since I was in a part of the building where there's no signal, and when I took it out of airplane mode it started the download, although I didn't notice it for an hour or so.
I've had to reboot 4 times because it keeps stalling, and it's still only at 80% downloaded after five hours.
Just wondering if any Verizon people read these boards and if they can offer some wisdom.

When does the Droid Razr Maxx get the Jelly Bean Update????

This update was promised before the end of the year! It went out through a mistake to a couple users on December 24th. So when will we get it?

I don't ever remember seeing anywhere that it was promised before Jan 1st. According to Moto's site it has always been and is still listed as:
DROID RAZR (XT912)
ICS (Android 4.0.4) rollout began in June 2012. Will be upgraded to Jelly Bean (Android 4.1)
DROID RAZR MAXX (XT912)
ICS (Android 4.0.4) rollout began in June 2012. Will be upgraded to Jelly Bean (Android 4.1)

Xperia J- Problem in touch after Jelly Bean Update

Hello Friends,
I am facing a serious problem in Xperia J after the Jelly Bean Update.
1) The touch functionality is not working, ie, I am not able to tap the icons to open an app
2) The back/ home button does not respond to touch
The next point is very interesting:
3) The touch automatically happens, ie, when I just unlock the screen by sliding the unlock button, then automatically the apps get selected, closes by itself, ofens the inner pages which I cant even control.
Please help by atleast advising me on how to down grade the softwareback to ICS.
Thanks in advance,
~Viswanath

It would be worthwhile running a repair:
To repair the phone software
1.     Install PC Companion on a Windows PC from Support
2.     Turn on the phone, and connect it to the PC using a USB cable.
3.     In PC Companion, under Support Zone and click Start.
4.     Under Phone Software Update, click Start.
5.     Click repair phone.
6.     Follow the on-screen instructions.

Downloading phone book problem after "Jelly Bean" update

I own a 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander GT with Bluetooth (labeled as Link System) and a Motorola Droid RAZR. The vehicle has always recognized the phone as paired. Prior to "Jelly Bean", I had no problems downloading the entire phone book to the Bluetooth device in the vehicle. However, I had noticed on a recent trip that several new contacts were not recognized by the Link system. I realized that I needed to update the phonebook. I first deleted the old phone book from the vehicle, but I was then unable to download the new phone book to the vehicle. I tried several times but with no success. An additional Bluetooth symbol would appear to the left at the top of the phone display with the message "PBap connection request". The message would disappear after a second. But several seconds later, the upper left-hand Bluetooth symbol would also disappear, and the vehicle Bluetooth device would then inform me that the phone book download had failed. I contacted Verizon tech support last week, and the rep and I concluded that the Jelly Bean update was the problem, but she was unable to fix it. I also noticed elsewhere on the Verizon web site that several other people with different vehicles were also unable to download the phonebook from their Android phone to their vehicle's Bluetooth device.
I then realized that perhaps the Jelly Bean update had changed only how the Bluetooth on the phone interacted with the Bluetooth/Link system on the vehicle. I concluded that I needed to delete not just the old phone book from the vehicle's Bluetooth device, but also the pairing/recognition of the phone itself from the vehicle's Bluetooth device. I then reinstalled pairing/recognition of the Droid RAZR on the vehicle's Bluetooth device, and successfully downloaded the phone book from the RAZR to the Bluetooth device on the vehicle. This action should fix the problem on other vehicles as well.

Jandariea, I understand how frustrating this could be. You would think a software update would be fully baked and basic functions like Wifi would work. However, this is not the case with all Jelly Bean software updates. You sound more like the exception then the rule! Have you tried to disable/enable airplane mode? Does this issue only happen with your home wifi, or can you connect to a public Wifi (i.e. library or Starbucks)? Have you tried to do a master reset on the phone http://bit.ly/T1Ib1B ?^SP

I have the Iphone 5, and it shuts off randomly and the screen glitches. I have taken it into verizon and had it reset but the problem still continues. Is the only way to fix the problem to get a new phone?

I have the Iphone 5, and it shuts off randomly and the screen glitches. I have taken it into verizon and had it reset but the problem still continues. Is the only way to fix the problem to get a new phone? Also, why is it if I do need a new phone I can only get a refurbished one when I am paying insurance every month?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue persists, take the device to Apple for evaluation.

In case anyone has had the same problem as me, I have just managed to fix this by doing the following:
Switch off Mac
Switch back on in Safe Mode (Hit power button, then hold Shift key until a loading bar appears at the bottom of the screen).
Switch off Mac again
Remove power cord and wait 15 seconds
Plug power cord back in and hold down the keys alt, cmd, p, r all at the same time until you hear Starting chime for a second time and hopefully your audio will back.

When I plug in my IPOD Nano into a USB port, the computer recognizes it as a printer. It then attempts to install the printer software, which is already installed. The only way to fix it is to unplug the printer. Any thoughts?

Turn the printer off.

I have an issue with Acrobat, after a few uses, the program will not load, the only way to fix it is to completely uninstall the CS suite wipe the drive and reinstall the software, then after a few uses it stops working, how do i fix this?

Not sure of an answer to your basic question, but it may be that you can run a repair (on Windows --> Control Panel>Programs & Features and run the repair on Acrobat). If that fixes the issue, at least temporarily, at least you will not be reinstalling everything -- a real pain.
Next, open Acrobat and go to the Help to run the updates and be sure you are current. On some OSs, the updates are critical.

Searching problem after 10.5.6 Update

Hello everyone, we are having a problem with searching shares mounted on clients from a server.
Prior to 10.5.6 we could search an entire share as well as folders in the share. After 10.5.6 we can't search the share and we can only search folders in the share.
The server is currently running 10.4.11.
I guess what I'm wondering is... are there people with server 10.5 that are also seeing this problem or would upgrading the server fix this search issue?
Thanks
Mike

Same problem here, upgraded to 10.5.6 and cannot search our apple server running tiger. Windows shares on 2003 server works fine. Will an upgrade of our Apple server to Leopard solve this issue? Is there an easy way to "uninstall" 10.5.6 without reinstalling the computer

Hi all...
I recently installed the 10.5.6 OS upgrade and I've encountered a problem. I can no longer search my network attached servers - there is no search activity of any kind when I type in search terms. My local search works fine...I just can't search anything on my network ... windows servers. Is there a compatibilty issue between OS X 10.5.6 and Extreme Z-IP? Any helpful tips

After upgrading our workstations from Mac OS 10.5.5 to 10.5.6, we no longer receive Finder search results from our file server that runs Mac OS X Server v.10.4.11.
Are there any other solutions available other than rolling the workstations back to 10.5.5 or upgrading the file server to 10.5.6

Pantech Marauder - Problems After 4.1.2 Update - Please Help!

My Pantech Maruder has been working great until Verizon pushed out the 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update.
The problems I am having now, is that whenever I receive a text message, the alert sound no longer works. I have applied all the settings, tried new ring tones, etc,
The default browser is a mess. When I load Google News, it is no longer in mobile view, and I can not seem to fix it. Also, the back button does not work. It always takes you back to the Google home page.
These are just a few. Most of the time I have to turn the phone off more often that I did before the update, to get most of my apps to work.
Is there a way to go back to the previous version?
Thank you,
Jim

I don't think you can revert to the previous version. You said you turn the phone off and it gets better, briefly. Have you tried a system cache clear? This does work to clear some glitchy behavior on my Droid 4 running JB 4.1.2.
Power down phone
Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu
Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
Press volume up/down simultaneously to go into system recovery
Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select
