The issue existing inside M5 is called 'battery lock'.
Old battery rev is 2 or below...while new battery rev is 3.
Follow the instructions below to check whether ur M5 is facing 'battery lock' or not;

this is my first sony experia, the phone shuts down very often. so guys if you planning to buy this model of sony dont ever think of it. its worst than cheap china phones and even the customer support center cannot help me with the problem. i tried all my possible ways to get it fixed but failed to do so. hope they give me my refund. the sony company makes shitty phones, they should probably change their business and start selling peanuts on the streets. i am frustated because my phone is just a month old

before buying up my phone i too had a tough time deciding between so many phones out der... but reading the reviews over here i feel glad over my choice...
i went fr lg g4 dual. :-) this is my first lg phone. it has excellent quad display, dual sim, memory card upto 200gb, excellent camera, good call quality... i have got a good class memory card and a qc 2.0 support power bank... i simply love it.
all's well... damn happy...

Hi guys I also have the auto shut down and the bad camera issues but a fix to the "camera not avaliable" is to disable Google nows voice thing completely so that "OK Google" is off
Also can someone try and send a WhatsApp voice note and see if it captured your voice and if your microphone still works after that because on mine the microphone refuses especially to work after a voice note until a restart of the device

MK AHMED, 24 Dec 2015Hopefully this issue will be resolved and i can purchase this phone in january (South Africa) Hi Ahmed as I said before I got my phone back yesterday and they replaced 1 part (Sony won't say which part) and the gave me 5 software upgrades but the phone still has the same issue. Cell C told me to phone Sony directly because they lied about fixing the phone I am extremely upset and I don't want to have to carry a power bank for the rest of my life. So Ahmed to be deadly honest as much as I adore this phone I do not recommend it because at the moment it is in use able

purchased the same phone and i've had the shutdown issue on day 2. had to connect it to a charger to 'jumpstart' the phone. it works fine WITHOUT a sim card but shuts down after inserting a sim. i am also having trouble connecting to the internet in most locations whereas i normally get a 3G or LTE using my iphone 6. camera is not good, says 21mp but quality is as good as a 5mp. too bad i bought this phone from a reseller that won't accept a return instead just a service warranty of 7 days. obviously the phone is only a few weeks old or maybe months old since the reseller got it. the phone was just released 3rd quarter of this yr. i hope SONY has a fix for this. an update maybe so we can get the value of our money.

SNSDislove, 22 Dec 2015Can someone please give a very honest paragraph describing Sony Xperia M5? How would you revie... moreRead all the reviews here for an honest view. There's only a few who sat it's good. That should speak for itself. Those ranting here, such as myself, are not just making it up. You can look for the best specs and features for the best price. Ultimately, a mobile phone needs to be on all the time. Otherwise, it's not much different from a fixed phone ( land line). Someone here wrote that the provider may be the problem. And it could be the location specific. That could be true, but it's your gamble. I have had several Sony phones. None have let me down like this one.
