So lets try this and see if it helps.

Hard Reset using buttons:

Press and hold the Camera + Volume Down + Power until the phone vibrates. Then release the Power key and keep pressing the Camera + Volume Down for a few seconds.

    I know have an Sony Xperia Z5 which does not have the problems. 

    Thanks for your assistance.

    My issue and a big one is for a while battery was **** took 8hrs or more for a full charge.. dying within 2.. Had 50gb or more of photos and date. but was unable to transfer needed windows 8 didtn have it nor the room to ack up. should have got some sdcards n asked in store.. but it came on died within 30 seconds of coming on did twice then was a blue screen when I left it over night.. Been told its software issue but unlikely I can get it working without losing all my photos and they are worth more to be than the poxy phone.. is there anyway???.. I haven't backedup elsewhere
