Anonymous, 14 Oct 2015What update did you do? Facing the same problem about the auto shutdownNo. My huband's m5 was updated when we sent it back, while mine's was not updated. Both phones still had the shutdown issue. The update didn't make any difference. We returned both units and are now waiting for our refund.

Safe you money, I feel so regret to bought this phone.

It will disappear once you will do the update. I just confirmed this with one of my friend who brought this recently. At first he had all these problems and he thought that it was a defective piece, but after update it had worked like charm. Just now I seen his phone and tested to confirm all those issues disappeared.

                                Also I ordered the phone today itself, may be i will get it after 2 days.

                                    Bought two units of M5 last Sep 19 but my husband and I encountered problems in less than two weeks of use. His phone shuts down on its own, even on a high battery level, and will only open if you plug with a charger. When it opens, date/time settings don't update automatically as it should. The store replaced it with another brand new unit but it has the same issue. My initial problem with my unit was lagging and hanging even there's no multiple apps running and it sometimes click random screen parts without me doing anything, but now it got worse when it started to have the same problem of turning off by itself. That's 3 units with the same problem. I hope sony can fix that because we love the phone,great cam and sounds. Going back to the store again tomorrow. What a hassle!
