Xperia X doesn't always boot up
asked 2018-04-24 12:31:03 +0300
Ever since that last update to 2.1.1.14 my Xperia X doesn't always complete the boot process when powering up.
Most time it will go past the Sony unlocked warning screen then nothing happens. Usually on the next attempt it will boot successfully. I can always tell if it's going to boot up or not by looking at the notification LED. If it doesn't glow white/very light blue after about 5 seconds the phone isn't going to boot up.
Any suggestions as to what the problem might be?
Check this: instead of reboot, switch off, wait 30 seconds, then switch on. Is there a difference?

Try booting without the sdcard inserted and see if it boots consistently

@r0kk3rz and @ossi1967 this problem has only started happening since the 2.1.1.14 update. Before that there was not problem. Did something change with 2.1.1.14?
