  4. Hi, had a problem with the touchscreen on my 3 month old Tipo and had the screen and touchpad sensor replaced. Now, when making or receiving calls, as soon as I press answer, or dial, the phones goes to blank screen and I cant hear anything on the phone. When the person on the other end, who can hear everything, hangs up. The phone returns to normal.

    Anyone know how to fix this or had a similar issue?

    Getting pretty annoyed with this phone

    Matt

    • Hi Matt,

      The first step would be to perform a factory reset. If the problem persists the handset will need to be returned to Sony for repair.

    I’m having trouble with the alarm clock in my new Sony Xperia Tipo! No matter what I try the sound doesn’t work. When the alarm goes off, it only vibrates but no sound. Have you any idea what the problem might be?

    i just want to know how to move apps from phone memory to memory card

    • There are several options.

      1. Try settings menu>applications> click on the an app and see if there is an option for move to SD
      2. Download Apps 2 SD to monitor where apps are installed and push them to the SD.

  11. Hi, my partner bought me my sony xperia tipo for christmas and i love it.
    Only problem is that i cannot locate how to clear cache. i have looked on many websites that tell how to do this, go to browser then menu then privacy settings and its meant to be there, however my browser is o2 and has no menu option in the top right hand corner as all the other step by step instuctions seem to have. Please help !!!

    • When you access your web browser is it called ‘browser’ or ‘internet’?

      • Hi
        Thankyou for your quick response, i have however downloaded the manual for my phone and have found the answer to my problem.
        i would advise anyone who has problems with their phone, to firstly read the manual, if solution is not there then a site like this one could help.
        Thanks again

    I have a problem with my airtime that keeps disappearing? What can I do to stop this?

    • Do you mean you keep loosing signal?

      • amelia bain says:

        when I am loading say for instance R30 and I check after 10min then there’s R20 and so it will go on until there’s nothing If I stop the running apps it comes back after a few minutes so I do’nt know if that is the problem or something else? how do I stop this? Tx so much for the quick response

        • R20 and R30 we do not know what you are referring too. What are you loading. Provide more detailed information please.

          • amelia bain says:

            i am using vodacom. when I am loading my airtime eg. R30 and I check again my airtime balance after 10minutes it will reflect R20 without me making any fone calls or sending messages and so it keep on decreasing until there is no airtime at all. Hope this explain better

          • This is because you have mobile date switched on which means you can access the internet when not in a WiFi zone. Go into setting>Network settings>Mobile Data (or similar path), if the box is ticked, tap it to untick mobile data

          • amelia bain says:

            THANK YOU SOOO MUCH. MUCH APPRECIATED!1

  16. Hey ya screen is unresponsive can only power on and off, same when restarted after bat has been removed and replaced I feel I want to try a hard reset before forking out for repairs. Any help gladly appreciated?

    • The manual does not detail a reset other than going through the settings and if the screen is not responding, you can not do this. We advise you speak to Sony.
