NFC not working properly. - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello to all the new z2 users. Have any of you guys had a problem say beaming a photo from or to the z2 from another device.
Mine always says read error, try again. Tried Web pages as well. Same result. Looks like a bug

I've only played around with NFC once, that was yesterday with the Z2.
I tried to beam a webpage to my friends Note3 but it kept displaying read error. We found this was due to his phone screen being off and locked.
Once we turned the screen on and unlocked it, it worked as it should.

Tried uninstalling it and reinstalling several times thinking the problem was with the recent update. Sorry a lot of u are having the same issue as me, but at least the update isn't broken.

svoice down?

So I guess I do not kno how svoice works but it doesn't seem to be working for me anymore....
I tried "what's the weather like for today" it correctly shows the question, however takes a long time to process and comes back to say " no weather results, sorry"
Anyone else experiencing issues with svoice...I already tried deleting its data and restarting app no luck. it can do web searches but no weather at all

Well at least sounds like I'm def not alone... I will stop resetting things on my end.... wondering what's happened too...
Svoice is terrible nonetheless, It delays the home button (disable svoice and see the difference) it laggs way behind siri and has very limited capabilities. It would be adequate if you can use it when the phone is locked and can be used via headset. The major delay on the home button is a deal breaker itself to me
Down? Hasn't it always been "down"? Hahaha.

The first time I tried to get the weather from svoice was about a week ago with no problem. So I assume this is a network problem most likely that will be fixed on their end.

By resetting it, do you mean you went back to unrooted? Or just a stock rom?
By the way I'm running Bean's Custom Stock Rom on VZW and it's not working. I'm guessing it's just a server issue with the activation of so many new GS3's
In advance of the Olympics, Sammy has been doing all sorts of network maintance.
Yesterday all the TV services were down.
Is this only affecting Verizon devices?
Could it be related to the updates surrounding the Siri debacle?
I highly doubt it's from the number of activations.

In my opinion, S Voice isn't terrible but it is behind Siri.
To have the home button respond faster just uncheck the 'launch S Voice by double clicking the home key' in the settings. You can also use S Voice when the phone is locked. Setup Wake up commands and you're set.

Resetting meaning factory stock.mine is not rooted. Hope it's temporary.
servers either on maintenance or simply too flooded by too many users trying to use s voice at the same time. mines been intermittent since yesterday

[Q] One Touch / Screen Mirroring not working

Hi there
I can't use One Touch Setup with my Z1 and Tablet z2, both 4.4.2, but the tablet ends quickly with this message:
Timeout
Connection timed out. Make sure your device is running Android 4.4. or later and supported for use with One-touch setup. To use this feauture. you must be logged in as the device owner and keep bluetooth on
And of course, my Z1 ends with the same message, but a few seconds later. Could be related with my "unlock-relock bootloader"?
Thanks!
Hmmmm thought I was the only one having issues. My Xperia z Bootloader is also unlocked. I don't believe that's the problem though. Need someone with locked Bootloader to confirm this.

Do you have your tablet z2 unlocked? I relocked, but drm keys are already lost
I am able to use both on my 512. I am all stock still and I throw to a C2G mircast receiver. Works fine for me.

Awww rats I'm with 511, is pretty sad to see how Sony do some things pretty bad. Now my tablet have 0 value and irrecuperable
My tablet is locked but my phone is unlocked.
He is able to do mirror cast between that TV receiver. Would be great if he can test between a phone and the tablet

Sorry, I know this is an old post but do you know that you're only supposed to have the set up screen active on one device. The other device should be at home screen with NFC turned on.

Z2 problems

My partner has had her z2 for a couple weeks. And she has always had iPhones and me mainly androids. But she has found it hard to use at times. For some reason 3 or 4 times a day over past week it has crashed and not responded. And also turns it's self off. And while in walkman app could not select songs only way I managed to get it to work was uninstall all updates then the songs were clickable. Then upgraded again and it still worked. Any one else had similar problems? Thanks

You shouldn't be having these issues. In my experience the phone is very stable.
The only time it resets on me is when I pull the SIM card. I'm not sure why it does that because it's not necessary.... But anyway
Try doing a factory reset and all that. If there are still issues call Sony support and get the device replaced, or just do a 30 return/exchange.

Yes i had these exact issues with a defective unit, it seems that replacing the device fixed it alltogether
Take note reflashing my firmware didnt fix my problem, if it doesnt fix yours then get a replacement

Camera Shutting Off Due To Temperature?

Madly in love with this phone, but took it out to italy last week and took some shots on it and constantly a pop up telling me the camera was being stopped due to extreme temperatures
The phone was warm, but not very hot and I had only used it for one or two shots when it did this, repeatedly
Anyone had this issue?
I had this with my original Z2, i got a replacement and havnt had a overheat not once
Early batch devices have this issue the most
