Fix common errors on the Sony Xperia Z1

Error number 1. I have updated my mobile and the battery consumption has skyrocketed.

The main reason why users experience problems of excessive consumption of battery after installing an update because they do not perform a cleanup of data and files on your mobile after installing the update. To solve the high battery consumption in the Sony Xperia Z1 after installing any update, you have to follow these steps (although, yes, we must be aware that by performing this procedure we will lose all the data stored on our mobile, so it is recommends that we make a backup first):

1. First of all, we turn off our Sony Xperia Z1, for which we simply have to press and hold the off button (that is, the circular button) for a few seconds until a message is shown on the screen offering us the possibility to turn off the mobile.
2. Once the mobile has been turned off, we press the off button again but this time we keep it pressed until the notification LED lights up with a colored light. As soon as a colored light appears, we must press the volume up button.
3. Now we must navigate through the menu that will appear on the screen using the volume up button and the volume down button until we reach the option of " Wipe data factory reset ". Once we have managed to select this option, click on the shutdown button and confirm that we want to clean the data by pressing the shutdown button again.
4. The mobile will clean all the data and will restart automatically once the process has finished. In principle, with this procedure we should be able to solve the excessive battery consumption, although in the event that we do not obtain any solution, we will still have the possibility of consulting the universal tricks to save battery on Android.

Error number 2. Some contacts in the Phonebook disappear by themselves.

A fairly common failure not only in the Sony Xperia Z1 but in any smartphone is the mysterious disappearance of the Contacts from the Phonebook that occurs completely randomly in some terminals. This disappearance is explained by the interference that occurs with external applications such as, for example, Skype. The moment we delete a Skype contact, if that contact also exists in our agenda, it is very possible that it will end up disappearing from both places.

That is, the solution to the problem of the disappearance of contacts in the Sony Xperia Z1 is to deactivate the synchronization of contacts of the external applications that we install on the mobile. In this way we will avoid mistakenly deleting the numbers stored in our phonebook and we will have managed to completely solve this problem.

Error number 3. The Walkman application does not detect the songs that I have stored on the microSD card.

The solution to the problem of synchronizing songs from a microSD in the Walkman application of the Sony Xperia Z1 is as simple as following these steps:

1. We enter the Settings application.
2. Click on the option " Application manager ".
3. Click on the " All " tab (located at the top of the screen) and look for the Walkman application. Once we have located it, click on it.
4. Now we click on the " Clear cache " button, we return to the Walkman application and try again to play the music from our microSD card.
