Fingerprint issues, Signal issues and a grainy screen - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, from i had my Xperia z5 everything was 100% up until 6 months in whenever the fingerprint scanner would stop working intermittently the signal started getting worse and worse. I was just wondering has anyone managed to find a way to fix these issues through rooting? Or without sending it off. If it can be fixed without sending to Sony id rather do it just. I have searched the forums but can't find any fixes as such. Thanks for any replies:good:

flash latest european firmware and wipe everything

Would this solve the fingerprint issue?

If it's a soft problem just flash over the latest Ftf, It should fix it, but if it's an hardware problem we can't do anything sorry

[Q] Resolve Sleep of Death

I have an MZ 601 (Asia/Europe Xoom 3G)
I've noticed that it SOD's (Sleep of Death) a lot.
This occurs on stock Rom 3.1
I've tried Tiamat, Launchpad Gemini.
None of the Custom Rom's fix this, and I have not yet been able to come up with steps to reproduce this error. At this Time it seems to be occurring randomly. When it does however it is very very annoying.
Sometimes I can fix it by holding the power button, the screen will suddenly turn on and ask me if Im sure that I want to power of the device.
Sometimes on that dialog if I hit cancel, the screen goes dark and it will appear that it is SOD again.
I know there are various reports on the forum of SODs happening and other people claiming that the Xoom is a GED device and hence does not have SOD issues.
But clearly looking at my device it is certainly prone to SOD issues.
What could I do to find the root cause of the problem?
Could it be a hardware issue? Or is it software?
Does anyone here have a definitive answer for this problem?
Install a stock kernel.

right on, And make sure you do not use an alternate launcher...
My Gtabs used to suffer from this a lot, some kernel where fixing the issue, and using only stock launcher where having the same effect...
As I mentioned in my post stock rom which has the stock kernel and stock launcher had SOD issues. Both 3.01 and 3.1.
At this time the launchpad Gemini 1.30 kernel reduces the occurrance of SOD a lot. As it happens a lot less now. But it still occurs.

I would suggest a factory reset if its still not resolved, take it to the service centre

No sound after 4.4.4 update

After I updated to 4.4.4, I can no longer hear anyone whose calling me through the headset but the speaker and bluetooth works. Before the update, anyone calling was hard to heard at max volume. I thought the update was suppose to fix this problem but it seems to have made it worse. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.

Restart. Clear cache. I had no sound but restart fixed it.

Thanks. After a couple of restarts, the sound is working but it's still low.
I've had this issue twice now. A restart fixes it both times but it's difficult because you only find out about it when you receive a call.

battery drain, its a different problem?

Hey guys. I know there are a lot of these threads going about but mine seems to be a different case altogether.
I've rooted my device, installed better battery stats and wakelock detector. Neither show any kind of battery drain. And I'm unable to upload and screen shots because xda app keeps force closing when I do so.
I've also followed the guide to disable Google play services. Nothing has changed. I've had this issue on both 33r and 25r.
I do love this phone but I can't believe I traded my fully working xperia z2 for a phone that doesn't work properly
Anyone else having this issue?

Without any supportive data this thread is pretty pointless. Jump on a browser and post some screens.

Wifi stops working after a while but is still connected home network

Having an issue with the oneplus one where you go to pick it up and start browsing after it has been sitting around a while idling (not sure if the time matters, but it seems like after 1 hourish) and the wifi is still connected, but nothing works that needs data. It acts like it would if you had not internet connection. Toggling the wifi off and on will fix the issue and notifications and emails start pouring in.
I am on stock 38R rooted.
I have the same issue and others do as well. No one has an answer or solution. Supposed to have been reported on JIRA.

Oh that is unfortunate! I just received my OnePlus One yesterday and was having this issue. Was bummed out after finding out the wifi was flakey.
Was this always an issue or just recent with the 33R -> 38R update?
For me it started after the very first update. I just hope its fixed with the next one. I'm on 38r
