To extend your battery life, reduce screen brightness, disable unused apps running in the background, and turn off connectivity features like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS when not in use. You can also enable battery saver mode to optimize performance.
First, check the charging cable and adapter for any damage. Try using a different cable or power source. Clean the charging port to remove any debris. If the issue persists, restart the device or perform a software update.
Ensure your apps are up to date. Clear the app cache and data by going to Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps. If the problem continues, consider reinstalling the app or performing a system update.
Use the Sony Xperia Companion software on your computer to back up your data. Alternatively, use cloud services like Google Drive to automatically back up photos, contacts, and other important data.
Go to Settings > System > Reset options > Erase all data (factory reset). Confirm the action and follow the on-screen instructions. Ensure you back up important data before performing a factory reset.
Remove any screen protectors or cases that might be affecting the touch sensitivity. Restart the device. If the issue persists, try performing a system update or a factory reset as a last resort.
Go to Settings > About phone and tap on 'Build number' seven times. You will see a message indicating that developer options have been enabled. These can be accessed from the main settings menu.
Ensure the camera app is up to date. Clean the camera lens for clearer photos. Use the manual mode to adjust settings like ISO and shutter speed for better results in different lighting conditions.
Avoid using the phone while charging and close unused apps running in the background. Reduce screen brightness and disable features like GPS and Bluetooth when not needed. If overheating persists, consider a factory reset or contact support.
Go to Settings > System > Software update. Check for updates and follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the latest software version. Ensure your device is charged and connected to Wi-Fi during the process.
