    3. Not able to copy songs from PC to phone
    4. Phone has become very slow even though i'm not using much apps.

    Thanks in advance.

    • Hi, there are many causes that can make our Sony Xperia C become slowly or hang while running some applications. We will try to answer all 4 number together. The most important think you need to make sure the ROM or internal memory is still enough or not to small. Try to see from Menu > Setting > Storage and see the Internal storage available size. If the memory is nearly full, what makes that happen? although we are not install to many applications, but some applications will keep data cache at internal memory like Facebook / SMS / Email or other similar applications. If you are not use external memory, then some photo and downloaded files from browser will be keep at internal storage. If you still get problems, you could try to consider doing hard reset for restore operating system to factory reset and also remove all applications cache at internal memory.

  • Sir I swapped my sd storage to internal storage...I set proper permission also after rebooting I can't access both my internal as well as sd storage.....after that I uprooted my mobile....I have backup I installed backup also even though I can't access my storage....kindely please help me....I'm in big trouble

    • Hi, it looks like that you have already rooted your Sony Xperia C and do some tweak options that make some trouble with your memory card. Unfortunately, there are no standard solutions for your problems, because the non official ROM or Root might be happen with some different steps. Please find some solutions from your previous reference community, maybe they can help you to make your internal and external storage access again.

    • Hi, it is strange because by default Google Play Store already installed as factory default application. Maybe you or someone else ever do root and uninstall Google Play Store by accident. Although we are not sure it will work or not, but you can try to reflash or reinstall latest update firmware using PC Companion that you can download from Sony official website. Follow the steps #Option 4 above. After download PC Companion, install it at your computer, and follow the information to reinstall your Sony Xperia C using PC Companion.

    • Hi, if your Sony Xperia C does not have Google Play Store, then you should try to install just for the Google Play Store applications, so you does not need to reinstall the firmware or operating system unless you use other custom ROM, but we are not recommended to that for standard user. Please try to download Google Play Store APK (file that you can run from Android operating system). You can try to use this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996995 to download the latest Google Play Store APK. After that you can use File Manager to run it from your Sony Xperia C. Once installed, you will find Google Play Store from your application Menu.
