hi good day, i have a problem with my c5 ultra, it started 2days ago, it suddenly freezes or screen turns off and the unit is not responding,so i use the master reset button to turn it off then turn on again. it will function normally but the problem will come again,sometimes even if the phone is idle it will come like that. i removed several apps to free some space in the internal memoy,i also tried booting it to safe mode but the problem is still there. i also tried removing the sim and sd card but the problem was not solve. pls help me with this thank you

Hi @yopej,

I'm sorry to hear that. If you have already tried to remove the SD- and SIM-card from your device as well as rebooting it to  safe mode, I would recommend that you try and do a software repair using Xperia Companion.

If the same behavior persists I'd say that this is related to the phones hardware and I'd recommend that you have your device sent in to an authorized service center for further examination. For more information on how to have your device sent in you can contact your Local support. They can also assist you with any question you may have regarding service procedures in your country.

Let me know hope it works out!

@georgetsl this is a user based forum, what you read here is fruit of user experience and believe what most of us are posting here. There is no lie in a software update provoking hardware issues... Considering that bad software can drive hardware to misbehave. If you think we are boring you, feel free to avoid participating but don't post comments that are not constructive.

@georgetsl probably this entire thread is not constructive but I can tell you there are many others that explain with details the issue of the software update for the C5, all the symptoms and all the way to fix them. Saying things like "Sony fix it otherwise I'll stop buying your phones" that's not constructive.
