Hi, the servers seems to be overloaded at present due to thousands and thousands of requests.
Requested to try after few hours or a day when everything calms down, yesterday many were facing the same problem but many ( more than half i guess( people on the forum who were earlier complaining) ) were able to make it

  • Xperia Arc S wifi problems

    After upgradeing to Android 4.0 i cant connect to my WI-FI (WPA2-PSK). I can see my network, the phones states it gets an IP address and then just right after it goes into somekind of a loop : approves my logon, gets the IP ... then get throwed off and starting all over again. Before trying to logon to the network, it states that the signal is strong, but when in the so called loop, the phone suddenly claims that the signal is bad ?!?!
    - Before the upgrade to Android 4.0, i had no problem whatsoever connecting to my WIFI.
    - Our peripherals in our household, including my wifes XPeria Arc S, which not have been upgradded, hav no problems connecting to our WIFI.
    - I have done a "reset to factory setting" without any luck
    -  Also rebooted my Router, which has the latest firmware (Hawking HWR-54)
    Any ideas??

    I have a similar problem since updating my Arc S to ISC.
    My WiFi can no longer connect ot my Intellinet Access Point regardless how many times I changed the Access Point encryption, SSID, password, channel, etc.
    The interesting thing is that when I switched to a N capable Access Point it connected straight away!
    Couple of days ago I used Sony's Software Update Manager to upgrade to the latest LT18i_4.1.B.0.587 and I can attest that is is faster and snappier, but the WiFi problem still presists.
    Another weird thing is that if I have ANT+ service running Before switching on my WiFi and connecting to the Access Point I'll never be able to use my WiFi unless I reboot the phone.
    Now, Being a loyal Sony/Sony Ericsson/Sony user for the past 12 years I have to say that these issues must be ironed out Sony before we dump your phones and go the Samsung way or any other way.

  • Xperia arc s is extremely buggy after ICS update

    The following issues have appeared after det Android 4.0 update:
    1. The phone restarts all the time without any prior warning (extremly annoying)
    2. Bad Wifi reception.
    3. Apps freeze and shut down all the time( A am aware that this could just as well be apps not optimized for ICS)
    4. Charging the battery seems to be much slower.
    Any bugfixes comming out soon? Anything I can do, except maybe get a Samsung instead?

    Hello
    I got with my phone Arc with similar problems. Update was successful only at the third attempt, the phone responds much more slowly than in Version 2.3 ... Wi-Fi connection which is switched off and disconnected so by watching the Internet, You Tube... This is not happening before the update. Starting applications is much slower than before. For some even changed commands              :( . Mostly everything is much slower. Only appearance is more beautiful ... the rest?? Before I update to ICS 4, all work better and smoother.
    Why?

  • Issues in ICS update for Xperia Arc

    I am using Xperia Arc. I have done the ICS update recently and I am totally disappointed with this update. The thing is some features already there in the 2.3.4 version of android is not there in ICS update.
    When long press the power button ‘take screenshot’ option was there in the 2.3.4 but in ICS that option is not there.
    I have seen the beautiful lock screen in ICS forums but it is missing in the ICS update
    Music player is still same like 2.3.4 android version. I was expecting the custom equalizer as like Arc S . but it is not there in Arc ICS update
    Google says recently opened apps will be displayed in the home screen in ICS. But its missing in the my ICS update.
    Google says live and transformation effects are there in ICS but I am not able to see those things in my Xperia Arc after ICS update.
    Kindly let me know is there any solutions for the above issues..
    Thanks
    Manivannan

    1. You take screenshot by long pressing power and volume down button (booth at same time) in ICS, thats how google has made it.
    2. What beautiful lockscreen are you talking about? Sony has kept the lockscreen same because thats the lock screen many users are used to.
    3. Yes music player is same. I have an Arc S, the music player is same. The music player with equalizer is in Xperia S not in Arc S.
    4. Google never said any such things. You can see the recently opened apps by LONG PRESSING THE HOME BUTTON and can close them by Swiping it off the screen.
    5. Once again Google didnt say any such thing. If you want to change transision effects and stuff use Apex Launcher instead of Sony's launcher. You can get Apex launcher for free from Play Store.
    Hope i helped. If you have any question ask i'll try to help.

  • Xperia Arc S Auto restart problem

    I am having a strange problem with my Xperia Arc S. It's keep auto-restarting all the time and does not start at all. It's showing the "Sony" Logo then the "Xperia" logo then blank screen and then after some waiting it's keep showing the "Sony" logo and "Xperia" Logo. I reported this to Xperia Care and I got advice to visit Sony mobile Service Center.
    After I visited the service center, the technician agreed to repair the Phone provided I give them a formal declaration that during repair if anything goes wrong, then I would not hold them responsible for the damage as the components required to rectify possible damage is not available with Sony.
    Please advice me what to do. Is there really any possibility for unrecoverable damage? Do technicians in service centers can claim such declaration?

    Hi ... I had a same problem and its resolved by just some working mentioned below, do not panic your data is same and it will be recovered, twhen your mobile arc s is continuesly restarting, when xperia logo is displayed, long press the home key or continuesly press it, the middle button and in 4 to 5 restart you will see the lock screen and your wall paper and it might restart from that point also but try again and again and if the screen stays move quickly to settings and close the blue tooth and with the next restart your phone will be normal, hence forth do not use bluetooth i future It will require many try so be patient and try again and again.  I was successful twice and got all my data as it is. ashok.gos wrote:

  • Having problem synching Media Go with my Xperia Arc, and SE sync

        Help people. Just got my Xperia Arc and attempted at using Media go to transfer all my music files into the Arc. However, the transfer keep hanging in the middle if I transfer too many files at a go. Say 3-4 albums.
    It keep popping out wit the error code 0x802a0006. Help me!!!!!!!!
    On a side note, I sync all my contacts with google account. Those contacts that I imported from the google account, how do I sync it t my SE sync account?

    I'm sorry to hear about your problem with Media Go and Xperia arc.
    I have been trying all morning to regenerate the problem you guys run into. But without any luck. I've been testing with the latest version of Media Go.
    Unfortunately I'm not able to place what the error code you get points at either.
    I believe that my best suggestion would be to see if you guys get the same problem if you try on another PC computer.
    Regarding the SE sync, it's not possible to sync contacts in the phone that comes from Google to SE Sync. That's because they become marked as Google contacts and can't therefore not be synced to another web service.
    If you would like to have your Google contacts on SE Sync as well I suggest that you export your contacts from Gmail, and then log in to SE Sync on your computer and import them under contacts.

  • Xperia Arc Bridge for Mac not detecting

    Hi
    I am using a Xperia Arc (LT15i) android version 2.3.4. I haven't updated this phone in ages and it is build number 4.0.2.A.0.62.
    I'm using Sony Bridge for  Mac 3.2(3202).
    I have been trying to update my phone. Unfortunately, Bridge for Mac doesn't detect that I have a device connected (using MTP mode) in order to update it. The program detects that I have a phone connected when I connect in MSC mode. The USB is good. I have tried turning it on and off and reconnecting and restarting the program.
    Any tips?

    Hi Dantroy,
    I apologize for the delay in an answer. Do you get any error messages when trying to connect the phone in MTP mode or does nothing happen at all?
    If you do get error messages could you please provide me with error logs as it's difficult to know what your problem is without more information. Otherwise, I would just suggest trying to reinstall Bridge as well as trying a different USB-cable (even though you say it's working).
    Here's how to get error logs out of Bridge:
    1. In BfM, hold the "alt" key down while selecting the "Phone" menu. Select "Clear logs" to remove all old logs and get a clean start
    2. Reproduce the problem you're having, whether it's connecting the phone, importing photos, doing backup...
    3. In BfM, hold the "alt" key down while selecting the "Phone" menu. Select "Export logs"
    4. On the computers desktop there should now be a file named "SonyBridgeForMacLogs_[date].zip
    5. PM that file to me or post the contents here
    I'm sorry I can't solve your problem right away.
    Kind Regards,
    David

  • Unable to read SMS messages received on Xperia Arc

    Hi,
    I am unable to read SMS messages I have received on my Xperia Arc.  They arrive ok to my handset (as they appear in the notification bar) but when I go to open it up under Messaging they don't appear.  When I send messages they also don't appear in the conversation.
    I assume there is a related symptom to my problem, my Call Log doesn't get updated anymore.
    Any ideas?  I have looked at thread 28371 and seems similar problems but I did not drop my phone...
    I have installed avast! Mobile Security in case I have a virus but it comes up clean.
    Cheers, Paul.

    I agree with Slimshaddy's comment above. Make sure the time and date is set correctly on your phone. If you continue to have the problem, try resetting the phone and ensuring the time and date it set correctly before you receive any more messages.

  • Sony liveware manager update problem

    Hi, my xperia arc s is facing an update problem in the liveware manager. The current software version in my phone is 3.2.7 but whenever i try to update to version 3.3.10, there show me this message. 'Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again.' I cant uninstall the app as it is a built in app. Please help. Thanks.

    @NightRequiem this is the same version as what I currently have without any problems. In this circumstance it would be worthwhile running a repair via PC Companion:
    1. Before you start you have to download the PC Companion software from http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/pc-companion/
    and install it on your PC.
    2. Once installed on your PC, double-click the PC Companion icon on your desktop to start the update.
    Note! For some models you will be prompted to do a backup prior to the update and then restore.
    3. Install and open PC Companion then select Support Zone.
    4. Phone Software Update.
    5. Start.
    6. Repair Phone
    7. Continue
    8. Accept data removal
    9. Next
    10. Wait for prepare
    11. Select Phone
    12. Follow the connectionn steps

  • Nokia 5230 device update problem -

     I get an error message when using my device to update. What should I do?
    "Remote server not responding"
    Most likely your Nokia device cannot connect to the Internet or the server is not available. Internet connectivity problems may have several causes, such as a temporary network failure in the operator's network or Internet, or missing or incorrect access point settings for the device updates (or web browser) application. Remember that if your device supports it, you can also use WiFi to connect to the Internet and update.
    You also need to have Update Server settings programmed into your device. These can be operator-specific settings (contact your operator for help), or standard Nokia settings as shown below:
    Key *#0000# into your phone's home screen or go to Device manager (consult your user guide if necessary).

  • Ssues with Xperia since the update

    Hi Support Team,
    I bought my Xperia arc S a month ago . It was running ginger bread 2.3 something. I saw that there was a new ICS 4 update for my phone and downloaded it for getting enhanced features. Since then I am facing issues while running the applications, I get a prompt that it’s not responding – option to “wait, report or close it “. Earlier all the applications and games were working fine, now in few games the touch is not very responsive.
    I hope you understand that this is my new phone and wasn’t anticipitating such issues with a reliable and trusted brand like SONY.
    Please suggest what needs to be done to resolve this issue. Waiting for your response.
    Regards,
    Ashish
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Few games are not compatible with ICS and game developers need to fix it
    So if you are facing problems only with games then its not the problem with mobile's sofware...
    However to ensure clear installation i suggest you to reinstall ICS on your phone + format your SD card before installing ICS and after installing it
    Backup everything as it will erase all data on phone (sms, contacts,apps)
    Update/Repair your phone via PCC or SUS
