M-5ting, 21 Nov 2015It's a real problem. I'm sending this message from my buggy m5. Today I had one shutdown. I work on LG level,so i need powerbank to power on the phone once it automatically shutdown. Because This phone will automatically shutdown when it have no service for long time.

It's a little hole and you must put a pin in it... if that doesn't work contact the seller for warranty repairs...

My phone always shutdown. Normally i could turn it on when connect to charger. But now it couldn't turn on at all. It's not even charging. I connected it to my power bank and the power bank's battery doesn't move at all even after i left it for one hour. What should i do? Any idea guys?

I have a replacement one. They said this phone is in third batch (random shutdown fixed) although they keep silent about the problem. Not so sure about it. The service is fine in Thailand. Have to wait and see. Anyone who want to buy this phone should check seller for this.

Though the phone is good, I face some issue with speaker sometimes. The mic doesn't work and sound output goes to earpiece rather than the speaker. So, I can't hear music or ringtone. When I restart the phone it becomes normal. It's v strange. I plan to take it to the service center.

I bought sony xperia m5 recently,and i am experiencing several problems exp 1) apps crashes frequently
2) battery drainout quickly
3) phone heatsup quickly
4) i cannot use camera for video recording
Later on i take it to the sony service centre,and software upgrade was done.But no use,I am still experiencing same issues,sony shold look in to the matter immediately before it becomes worse.And sony should recall xperia m5 phones and give us an opportunity to replace or upgrade to new phones.

I have a Sony Xperia M5 and I haven't any problems with it at all, it's an excellent phone recommend it over Samsung. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about the phone. I got mine on contract for a really good price but I think it's way worth the initial price tag.

AnonD-472515, 02 Dec 2015I love my M5, quality and function is on expectation, nice look and thoigh, but don't compare ... moreYeah, I think so, LG G4 is on a different league not to mention the price bracket. Anyways this would have been a perfect midrange phone if not for the issues encountered by users. I hope they release a formal statement and a fix to clear the worries of potential buyers.

Try pressing the volume up and power button at once until the phone vibrates. It will reset the phone. The guy at the sony service center told me that i should let at least 5 full charging cycles, meaning, the phone must reach until 30% then have it full charged (don't) use it while charging. Do it at least 5 times. This procedure conditions new battery. I haven't experienced the same issue after that.
