[Q] THL W8S Issue - Lock Up, Screen Fade, Auto-Reboot

Received this phone (THL W8S) 5 days ago, and straight out of the box it has had a serious issue where the phone will lock up, the screen will fade slowly to black, and then reboot itself. The problem occurs both after factory resetting AND in safe mode.
The phone is unrooted and running the stock ROM.
Basically during use, the screen suddenly becomes unresponsive to touch and the physical buttons (home, volume, power) all stop functioning. As soon as the phone locks up this way, the screen slowly fades to black over about 60 seconds, at which point I have to leave it to fade completely before it reboots itself.
It happens most frequently when using any browser (stock, or otherwise) taking from less than 5 seconds to around 5min before the random lock up occurs) but also happens when scrolling through messages; scrolling through emails in either of the stock apps; using a compass app which came pre-installed (very quickly).
Initially I thought it might have to do with WiFi, but problem also cropped up with WiFi off, using 2/3G. Then in troubleshooting also managed to get it to happen using the camera (lot of motion, and repeatedly taking snaps).
Also odd is that the batteries I received in the box were generic black ones, not the official stamped/logo'ed THL ones I've seen on every website and every unboxing of this particular phone. So while there's a possibility this may be a battery issue, the fact that the phone hasn't done this while using a more battery draining app (Beach Buggy Blitz; Rayman Jungle Run) makes me think this is a deeper hardware fault related to , although I don't know enough about voltages and such to rule it out completely.
I have a couple videos showing the problem, but unfortunately I'm not allowed to put the links here. Should both be easily found by searching:

Hello, I wanted to inform you that lately the reboot occur concurrently with application updates.
They are like your impressions.
Best regards

THL W8S the screen fade and reboot too!!
Hello!
I received the phone on 12 September. The screen faded from the first minutes of use. Yesterday I came three times. In "THL mobile store" recommend updating the firmware. But the update I have not found anywhere.

Thank you very much in advance.

Problems in Nokia 8 [Discussion Group]

Hi Nokia 8 user's ,
I have been hearing many complaints about Nokia 8,so I decided to create a thread where I can collect all the complaints about phone and try to find the solution to the problems.
Note ??
The major problems and suggestions go to the Nokia 8 feedback box.

Something's??
->? I use is
- Asus Pixel Master Camera(for Pro Mode & scenary pics)
-https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/zenui...mera-5-0-30-3_181011_5m-android-apk-download/
-Google Camera(Selfies,human pictures)
Please note: Slow motion is not working!!

It's a bit too big for me?

My only complaints are since almost a year of using Nokia 8: LCD burn in is so goddamn bad, even my 3 years old Galaxy Note 4 hasn't have any burn ins, and fingerprint scanner is a bit too small so you might miss a few times. Oh and stock camera app is so so at best, GCam FTW

I have mailed the Nokia team and they asked to install app to fix it like LCD burn in wiper.

Then I also want to write down my "problems":
- Since the update to Pie I have no Bluetooth connection to the Smartwatch (Ticwatch E, Wear OS 2.2)
Resetting to factory settings did not change the problem. Neither the clock nor the phone.
- During any execution of an app, the screen suddenly stops gesturing. Swiping or pressing buttons is no longer possible. This occurs about 4-5 times a week. The only solution: Reboot the device via Volume + Power Button.

Adoptable storage
What about not being able to use SD cards as adoptable / internal storage? Has anyone tinkered with or fixed this yet?

I am on my 2nd brand new 8 in a week and neither work for handsfree loud speaker calls. On Oreo, tried resetting both. No change

It's bound to software essentially. Many apps from Google play store automatically choose SD card as storage for OBB files. If you want to enforce everything to be installed on a ticking bomb then you are free to do it with magisk modules at absolutely no effort.

From what I gather from doing research it sounds like you would need to do a system reset and then disable FBE (file based encryption) as this is the reason why using an sd card as internal storage does not work with the N8.
Sounds like the way to do this is to do it through a modified TWRP/boot image. Just wondering if anyone has done it yet. Was thinking of making a forum discussion about it. I get your point, but in the interest of development and utilization of a device to its fullest potential (aka the ability to move apps to the disk in the interest of increased storage/backup), I also think this feature would be welcome.
Magisk has this functionality? I just got my N8 last week and am playing with all this stuff, just sideloaded on the pie update but havent rooted or flashed a rom yet in the interest of keeping things mostly stock. If Magisk has the functionality then cool, just think it would be interesting to create a custom ROM/tweak to have the functionality to store and use the apps from SD as well as the onboard.

My complaints so far:
- no notification light
- sound quality very poor when making a call
- laggy performance sometimes
- fingerprint scanner too small
- on the Pie beta: rebooting the phone erases the registred fingerprints sometimes
- camera slow and unreliable

the one and the most annoying issue i have with this phone is : the screen sometime half dead ( artifact ) =))) just a normal day , woke up , check the time on phone , and wow !!!!!! the screen half dead =)) , waste a lot of time for replacement ...

I did a factory reset this morning. So far the GPS is working normal again. Will keep checking if problem appears again.

The charging problem still remains, after charging by original charger, it will stop charging after a few seconds. Any solution? No, clear cache, storage and soft reset is not solution.

I have had charging problems a few times. Charging stops after a few seconds or charging is intermittent.
Solved it with compressed air
The cause was cruft in the usb-c port. Pocket lint get pushed down and accumulated in the bottom of the port.
Try to blow it out or use something thin and non-conducting (toothpick?) to get it out.

Has anyone faced camera blur problem??

All issues Android 10 update xz2 compact

I think it would be useful to have a collection of all bugs of the android 10 update. From my point of view it is a disaster.
I noticed the following (after I factory reset it) :
Touch issues - touching the screen lightly does nothing. I have the actually tap it... This makes writing a pain, as hard to reach keys do not always register
Backlight auto adjustment issues - now it's very aggressive and basically stupid. I'm sitting in home, in the evening, almost without moving, definetly in the same spot and the backlight just jumps around in big increments
Lag and shutter in daily usage - a restart solves this for a couple of hours...
apps are now often reloaded - memory manager is too agresive and kills background apps
GPS NOT WORKING. It was flawless before update ?
build-in swiftKey keyboard does NOT remember how and where you type IF you change the keyboard layout /position (compact, split, side, etc...). This essentially makes it useless

A factory reset is not enough , try software repair using Sony companion

Im not having touch or GPS issues, but my phone is definitely slower and laggier since the upgrade to android 10. ALso my battery seems to be depleting faster. Is there any way to roll back to 9?

Wifi is often lost and quickly reconnects
fingerprint sensor isn´t as sensitive as it was before
battery drain is bigger than before
bluetooth pairing with tablet doesn´t work properly...being paired: YES, but no connection at all...tried three different tablets...bluetooth headphones work!

The camera application is crashing when I take photos.... :crying:

I really haven't faced any of those issues. The fingerprint is the only things that have become laggy, the phone is louder now when playing music, camera works great even with unlocked bootloader.
You should try to do a clean install with newflasher my phone is even rooted and works great.

Scratch that... I am experiencing all the issues from OP's post. It is especially severe when trying to use two apps at the same time in split screen.

Sony mobile engineers answer my bug report
Android Beam doesn't work (transferring files by touching two phones with NFC).
Nothing works on this phone any more!
I will never buy another Sony phone and surely I will advice others against buying such sh*t.
------------------
I contacted the Sony support in my country and they said "the download must have been corrupt" and I "should try to reinstall" via the Xperia companion (some kind of desktop app).
Mind boggling is the fact that this answer comes "directly from Sony engineers".
Now... I guess it is clear for everyone why they f*ucked this phone so bad. Their engineers think that a corrupt file can 1) be installed successfully 2) cause all these bugs...

Why factory reset is not enough?
If the corect procedure is to use that "companion", WHY they pushed the update via OTA?

The only brand who has this crappy issue is Sony ! Companion fills all the missing files or damaged files .. during the ota download and installation sometimes things go wrong

For everyone reading this thread: there is no such thing as instalation with corrupt or missing files.
All files in today's IT world are uniquely identified and double checked after download.
Their answear is only a way of not telling us that they f*cked up this + they think that we are stupid. Some of us might be fooled by this, but surely the majority won't be.

We have primarily the camera issue, a reboot resolves it temporarily.
Anyone managed to fix these issues with a fresh Sony companion install?

52.1.A.0.618 here. Fingerprint is slower and the battery drains faster while screen on. (Standby and deep sleep are both ok). Everything else is the same as Pie, at least for me.

Add me to list of unhappy xz2 compact owners. Phone is almost unusable since the update. More often than not the finger scanner only works when you press the power button first, it lags awfully in most apps, I get errors in apps I never did before, battery drain is about the same as previous. Overall this is my last Sony. Very very poor. Should add I did full companion restore and it made zero difference

I have to add my voice to this thread, short as it happily/sadly is. Since the update I've experienced a number of issues: Fingerprint scanner is less sensitive and sometimes doesn't work, the wake-up procedure is strange, in that the icons will appear before the background loads and even though I have security set to not show notification details on the lock screen, they'll reveal for a split second before waking up to the home screen, the camera is unreliable, the timer app doesn't reset or dismiss when appearing on the notification bar..
It's the first time I've ever emailed Sony Support on what was (and I hope still will be) my favourite ever phone. They of course just tell me to factory reset. Such a shame and I hope they fix it.

I'm having the same issue. Not sure what is wrong. I have not factory restored my phone. That is ridiculous

I also add the bug of Google Assistant in Stamina Mode:
I always keep It disabled when long press home button, but when Stamina Mode turns on, Google Assistant switches on again automatically although in settings shows that is off.

wow its been 2 years since I bought the XZ2C, had issues with the wifi and data so I went back to android 8.0, and use it for O2 priority only. Came back to see if android 10 fixed the problems. Disappointing.
I am not surprised at all that Sony still hasn't fixed any of the issues.

With today's New Update the the voicemail-Record-Volume Bug is fixed.
Finally. Too good to bei true.

I will constantly update this thread.

First of all, I changed my logic in which I do this updates. Last month I had my one and only random system reboot so I tried to give it a little thought on how I should update this system, and so far I had no problem with it: You see, Android 10 had quite a lot of bad, unresolved updates, especially for those who manage to have a "successful" day one update (this translates to those who didn't have a bricked device) so now, when an update comes, it just tried to patch the old broken version, with mixed results, and not completely over write it. Remember back in A9 age? When you'd miss an montly update, the next month your update size would be >1gb? That means the 2 version old android version wouldn't be compatible with the new build so it did a complete rewrite of the partition? This never happened on A10 since launch, so here's what I did, after that system crash I downloaded the 10.0.7 and flashed it twice (by rewriting twice it means this, flash, reboot, boot into system, shut down, recovery, flash again, reboot, boot into system) through recovery, thus rewriting both A and B partitions with a known "good" (it still has bugs, but it doesn't carry the day 1 or day 2 major bugs) firmware flash. Now the same happened with the new update the 11.0.9, copied to SD, flashed through recovery and here is my review.
The bug in which the 5G icon in the wi-fi menu wouldn't hold if connected to the network and turned into a 4G wi-fi network still stands. This is only a visual bug, since the 5G network is doing just fine.
Tested the camera extensively and now it has a more aggressive focus and it's sharp again, image size is now large, like before, quality is improved in daylight, but the low light still could use some improvement.
The "useless" cards in Settings menu are still there (I personally only have the Customize your pixel one).
There is now a smoother feedback in the haptic feedback, so sometimes it seems like it's not working, but it's me not feeling it.
The 4G speeds still seem to be low, but again, like I said last time it could be a problem from my network provider, so I can't be 100% sure.
The internal storage speeds seem more and more slow on the other hand, I can't get transfers over 30mb/s on the internal storage, weird, because on .7 I could go over 100mb/s without a problem.
The RAM management is weird, after flashing the phone "my way", I can open ALL of the phone's apps and they'd stay up and running in the RAM until the phone starts going so sluggish that's almost a burden to use. It doesn't selectively remove apps from ram until closed from the recent menu. It isn't a problem for 5-10 apps open at once, but it starts getting weird after 30-40. Also the background apps are killed after a specific time, not by RAM usage which is counter intuitive... damn.
The MTP - SD card is still faulty. Refuses to display contents of large folders unless plugged out and plugged back in again. At least it's not crashing transfers right now.
The Media scanner is still faulty, after copying data to SD card they won't display in the specific apps (Google Photos, Google Music) but if manually searched (for example in my case Hiby Music) they're there and they can be used. Only reboot fixes this problem.
Direct Share is still not working.
This is all I had to say about the new .9 update, the rest of the more extensive things I covered can be found in the 11.0.7 thread, and it wasn't productive to write them here again, since the experience didn't change.
Battery seems a little worse than 11.0.7 but that was just the first day of testing, so it's irrelevant for most real world situations.
Other than the new method of installing and the few problems that seems odd to me, I can't report anything else after 1 day of usage. It's more usable, but it still have it's quirks... at least they didn't break anything else this time.

Yup.. Day two ram managent is getting as you described.. Still the device seems working better..

Update: generally better but still ram gets full after a couple of days. Still needs to reboot to fix the issue and clean the memory.
I think it's unbelievable that 4gb of ram are not enough to run this system.. There must be some bad development.

Not seeing "Some app services stucks on Restart state".

I can confirm you that the app you have mentioned in 9 are causing the device to slow because if you restart the app and then force stop them via hibernator Pro your phone who don't feel slow until they start again

I'm still having memory issues on my 4GB RAM model. Chrome tabs usually reload when switching back from another app even if I only have 1 tab open. The Google feed on the left of the main screen also reloads constantly. Those things didn't happen on android 9, I was able to seemingly switch between apps.

Lspeed fixes it

I had issues when multitasking Youtube and Opera/Chrome. It lagged until starting to freeze the browser, requiring me to press home and go back to browser. In some ocasions, the device restarted, maybe when ram got full or somehow corrupted.
After months in this situation, I gave up the once beloved Android One for the MIUI port HybridOS. After flashing this rom my device is completely different, more responsive, much less laggy, battery charges much more faster, and drains a lot less. The difference is like water turned into wine. Not to mention better camera quality (much better!), and the ability to record internal audio from everything (thanks to MIUI). I'm happy with my device again.

Sir waiting for 11.0.10.0 review

Hi
Are you still on that version ?
How has it been I'm tempted as my phone's so slow now I'm still on stock.
Do the banking apps work ok as that's my main worry for changing as I need them.
Do you have a link for your version I can't seem to find it.
Thanks

Hi, I felt my device was slowly becoming unstable, and some bugs from the original MIUI device began to bother me a little, e.g. "Do Not Disturb" mode don't block message sounds from favorite contacts, I wanted only call sounds, as in Android One. My wife still uses the Hybrid OS (same phone as ours) and she likes it a lot because of the camera quality and the cool interface. Banking apps work fine in HybridOS.
I decided to downgrade my A2 Lite to the original Oreo Android One (8.1), and I think battery lasts more then Hybrid OS, and the phone is even more smoother and stable. Some tradeoffs are the (very bad) camera, no dark theme, no radio, and some other minor features, but the phone is almost like when I bought it back in 2018. Now I remember how great this phone was/is.
If you really wish, I can try to upload the Hybrid OS somewhere.

ColorOS 12 crashes, hangs and reboots

Anyone else having terrible problems with their Find X2 Pro since installing ColorOS12?
The camera works maybe 1 time in 5, the others it loads and the horizon line moves, but the picture doesn't update and I can't take photos.
Other apps are regularly hanging or crashing back to launcher and the phone has rebooted itself twice
It's it possible to downgrade from 12 to 11? My phone was perfect before and now it's unreliable as hell.

Turning off the extra 3GB of RAM in storage (Developer options) appears to have fixed it!

I have experienced random freezing for a little while now, maybe since the last system update but possibly already since before that.
Another thing that happens is that swiping my home screen left or right does something completely different, and swiping from the top edge down to bring that quick menu also fails sometimes. These things were rare though, mostly it was random freezes that was bugging me.
Today it got so bad that I found this post.
I tried the 3GB option, the jury is still out. So far so good.
Also, I have a different Oppo than you: I have the Oppo Reno 5 5G.
I'll try to report back in a few days.

I have a problem with the autofocus in 4k30 video mode (and live HDR). It is cleary slower than on 4k60 mode and doesn't focus well.
Plus sometimes when i shoot 48MP mode with ultrawide lens i got this result :
