My phone has gone off about 20 times yesterday but this "sudden death" issue has been a constant pain since the past one month. It's obviously an inconvenience and I can't pinpoint what triggers this but I have a feeling it's the software. Does anyone know anything about it? Or else Sony needs to come out with a software update asap because having the phone plugged into a charger constantly is as good as using a landline.

I have had the brand new sony xz model for 2 weeks and it has completely died. I have tried everything mentioned here but nothing. power and volume trick doesn't work. Tried it again after charging for 3 hours. Nothing. Not even a flash of red light. Absolutely nothing. Is there a reset button hidden somewhere? I can't see one in the sim hatch and there is nowhere else it could be on the phone. help!

My phone just died. no life whatsoever even when charger plugged in. I had read a spam email just before it crashed and was so scared it had a virus. Tried the power and volume up and VOILA!!!! before I could even work out how I could rub the screen with the towel, ohine buzzed back to life
Thanks for the handy tips, hopefully now I know I wont need them again

Use a paper clip and push the force reset button near the SIM for 5 seconds then press the power on button.
