Hi! I had this problem a long time now.
The keyboard background light is stronger on the left side, than on the right side of the keyboard.
Am I the only one with this problem?
Please can someone help me.
Regards Paul
Same issue. I was told to reflash but I haven't done that yet.
Same problem here =(
On my keyboard right side has almost no light. And vibration is not working. So I just turn the light off.
got exactly the same problem, dont see how a reflash or hard-reset would help.

it won´t. it is a hardware problem.
you could probably try take it back to the retailer you bought it from.. They might but most likely won't do anything.
Got not problems here. Had this phone for 2 months now. Maybe it happens over general wear and tear?
mine is at the TS atm because of the keyb light and wifi problems. i'll let you know if they solve the problem
Hey, that's happens to all SE phones FYI all of you, u can ask some of ur friends with other SE phone and its always stronger keyboard light on the left

I would attribute it to the overall build quality and not to wear and tear, as mine lost vibration and got problems with keyboard light in less than 2 weeks, during which I practically never used the phone.
So if almost everyone has it, maybe It's the placement of the LED in the keyboard?

my solution is: don't look at it more than 1 minutes...the difference getting worse ^^

i am planning on buying XPERIA MINI soon but i've heard that it has few problems(global) like
* battery overheat
* strange activity of capacitive buttons(menu & back button start without even touching them)
due to these problems the phone seems barely usable
is this true , if yes did installing cyanogen-mod rom solve this problem ???
check this link this is a global problem : http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/112523#112523

The phone works fine with me. It's definitely usable. Just because one experiences a problem doesn't mean that everyone else does.

I dont have battery overheat. Capacitive buttons accidentally start only when I breath on em.
Plus I edited my keyboard layout so I can only unlock with power button.

thanks for your answers but i am referring to ST15i (without hardware keyboard)
but this is a global problem almost 44 members are shouting their problem at sonytalk @ http://talk.sonyericsson.com/message/112523#112523
Like you, my last unit was wildfire and it wasn't charging, there's a problem with the mobo and the warranty is expired a week after it happened that's why I chose xperia mini with Adreno 205 compared to wildfire S adreno 200.
Other users are definitely having problems with the capacitive buttons namely the back and menu key. So far, I had my xperia mini for over 3 weeks now and it doesn't have that problem. Honestly, I'm worried that the problem might show. However, from the moment I had the unit, I charged it overnight and been doing it ever since. I've been playing games with it like nfs shift for more than 30mins and the battery doesn't overheat the same as with charging it overnight. Overall, it's a fairly powerful phone and can play HD games with no lag at all. The only thing I don't like about it is sometimes I struggle reading texts while using its browser.
And oh, the sound(xloud) is awesome especially while using its stock earphones.
thank you for the info ....i am going to wait until sony finds a solution to this problem
you are quiet a lucky one ...i hope you wont have any such problems with your device
Dude its the best phone ive had. Coming from galaxy s
Hi. May i know when did you guys buy your xperia mini? I'm planning to buy the phone this week then I read the problems. I'm choosing samsung fit, lg optimus net and xperia mini. obviously, xperia mini as an edge to them but because of the problems I read, I'm having second thoughts. Help!
Like I said before, I bought mine for over 3 weeks now and doesn't have any problems(hoping it would stay that way). And I'm very happy with it.
dude, it support multi-touch? ?how many finger support?

Maybe does not seems to be so bad, but it's even worse: ST15i become totally unusable, when the capacitive buttonns are going crazy.
My phone has worked just fine for more than one month, but now it works only until the temperature goes above 34-35 celsius degree. Then the capacitive buttons starts activating, and the phone does not respond to any other command untill the temperature drops below 30 degrees.

yes but not my mini ;-)
I also bought my mini september 9. And so far so good, as it doesn't give any of the capacitive buttons malfunction.
Me too bought this about 1 month ago and didn't have any problem. the only problem was LCD brightness which was flashing sometimes in medium light places. but it solved after upgrading to 2.3.4
it's a good phone with many good features and suitable price
well, can we put some geographical or Weather classification here ??
i mean hot countries having this problem, while COLDER ones not having them ???
or it's irrelevant ???

I had the same problem with ICS, but i downgrade to GB. First I did the "sunbath", and works, but some apps started to crush. So I decided to go back to GB. Until now, it works flawless. I lose a couple of functions, but it's better than the "sunbath".
UPDATE1: After a couple of weeks the problem came back. Anybody, got a solution other than throw to the garbage the phone?
UPDATE2: Well, I really don't know what makes appears the touch screen problem again, but since I install GB, I got only once that the screen didn´t work and only for a short time. I've been using for a couple of days and I didn't have any trouble at all. I'm guessing that is like a bug software problem, but if someone find a final solution, please post it.
Hey!
Hey guys. I also have the same problem. My service test in touch screen was so terrible. Also behind delete button in keyboard. Lower part right side of the screen. What shall we do?
Additions.
Haha. I forgot the attchmnts
same problem
Same Problem here to.
Anyone know something about this problem?
Anybody got a workaround?
Thanks
Another one with the same problem, mine in the low right side of the screen. Im using the glove mode otherwise its impossible to use it. Somebody with JB, which disables glove mode, has resolve the problem??Im asking this because while its not responding, I restart the phone an enter CWM, and there, its responses perfectly.
So, somebody with this problem, has flashed the any port of JB and resolve this issue??
ok, I´ve tested with JB and it became more responsive but also having the problem.
I left the phone with direct sunligth and now it is ok WTF!!??
have you tried calibrating it? there's an app at the play store if i'm not mistaken..
I have tried everything but 1 thing worked. Sunbathing your sola will recalibrate touchscrren. I dont know how it work but it sure does the job. I'm afraid i have to sell my phone cause i dont want any problems. Now i'm using galaxy s3 mini

Hi, Sunbathing really works as a last effort for Xperia Sola
It fixed mine and the time needed for your phone under the sun is approx..1 hour
Dont worry about the battery
Hi !
Need some help and some guidance from the members regarding a serious issue with my Xperia Sola
The main issue with my Xperia Sola is that the screen freezes 2 or 3 times a day on various situations like when i am browsing on the internet or just browsing thru menus and or even when i write a text message. A random freeze i can call it! The screen freezes and looks like when you're watching a 3D movie without glasses. it's a bit..i don't know the exact term to decribe it but looks exactly like i said. So, after that it becomes unresponsive and the only thing i can do is to restart the phone using up volume button + start button at the same time! Then, it's coming back to life and...i am waiting for the next **bleep** freeze again!
The phone is upgraded to the latest version of android 4.0 with the Latest available software: 6.1.1.B.1.54. I allready performed an repair thru the pc companion on my pc and also tried SUS but the problem is still there.
I don't know wether is a hardware issue or a software issue!
Any ideeas?
Thank you!
Might be hardware issue.
Does I happen on clean firmware with no apps installed other that come with stock?

Likely the GPU, makes no difference if it's GPU CPU ram or anything else that's on the mainboard they are not going to fix it just replace the mainboard.

Well I'm not an expert, but since it happens after flashing clean firmware as well it seems to be some kind of hardware issue even if it's a loos contact.
Won't be cheap question is how exensive.
See if it's worth you repairing or buy a new phone.

Yeah man, clean software, nothing but the stock firmware on it and keeps on freezing. Some days he's behaving ok. I mean ...what am i saying, not a day goes by without one or two of those freezees! sometimes during a call! :/
Yeah, got the same advice from someone! I'll see if it's worth repairing! I really like this phone
I'll keep you posted ChikeD and thank you so much for reply!

try flashing a Stock FTF and see if ir still happens, if it still happens i think you can get a free repair under sony warrenty as this is likely an issue not caused by user wear

I have tried so many ways ( like turn OFF and ON again both in Settings > Display > Second Screen, flash many differentce roms after 4wipes) and it doesn't work.
I have searched in forum but seem like noone have a solution for this issue.

Can you expland me more. Cause the sencond screen works perfectly when the main screen ons.
You already tried wiping and several roms, so it is definitely not a software issue. If it was software the screen would have worked with at least 1 of the roms you tried.

Guys HEEEEEEELLLLPPPPP!!!
I have exactly the same problem! Surely someone knows what could cause this? Why does the backlight go off with the main screen??? The display is working, because if you shine light into it, the date/time/notifications are there it's just that the backlight is going off!!!! Surely this is software?
I've factory reset and it made no difference but that doesn't roll back to LP... I just upgraded this phone to the latest software when I bought it so don't know if it had this issue from new.
Sorry to take over the thread, will delete and start a new one if people would prefer.
Don't see how it can be hardware at fault???
Thanks in advance for any help?!

That's bad for you... unlucky.
Can you recall what (if anything) may have caused it to stop working? I'm wondering it mine went bad after LG bridge software update and restore from previous V10 (H961N).
Sent mine back and got another coming this week.. fingers crossed this time. Might update it the same but maybe not restore? or not restore settings at least?
Got my new one. Working fine except it's maybe a tad dimmer compared to my previous V10s second screen. There's definitely variation as it won't go off with my finger over the proximity sensor whereas my brothers one does (this just dims right down). A piece of cardboard or paper shuts it down. But most importantly, it does go off in my pocket... or else the wifi, sound, flashlight etc would be getting switched the whole time.
I solved this problem by checking PINs on mainboard for the second Flex Cable for LCD of LG V10, see the video, READ comments here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpeVAqgU94s, so in my case one of three PINs was folded little, so one PIN contact didn't touch the second Flex Cable and this caused the problem...
