Xperia SP INCREDIBLY slow after new update

[vazza]

I updated my SP like normal, and as soon as it booted, it is so much slower than it was before, can someone please help me to fix this, or help me return it back to the older version of android, where it was fine?

Thanks in advance.

Yes apparently it does run in compatibility mode, although I have not tried it yet, but why should newer and older versions of similar phones be supported in Windows 8 and not the SP. And I read that the SP will not now get the promised KItKat.

You have to ask sony:

HeIlo all.I have recently bought sony Xperia sp and it's my first smartphone and I'm very disappointed after using this product. I had choice between sp and moto g but I went for sp as I like his shape and camera but now I am thinking to switch on moto g as sp is very lagging smartphone,application freezes whenever i open it and it is very laggy and slow phone I've ever used. So my sony Xperia experience is very poor and I don't recommend it.

My Xperia SP is very slow and laggy. Apps often report they're not responding.

I've unsintalled any bloatware. I've tried updating the software (on the current version) and also running a repair - which it tells me that it can't do, as I'm already on the latest version.

So yes I've already tried the PC Companion and the Update Service (run in Win7 compatibility)

Anything else to try before this phone finds a new life as a doorstop?

You could try booting it in safe mode. I don't have any other suggestions sorry

I should never have updated to 4.3 on my Xperia SP. The phone has become totally worthless good for nothing. Everythings become such a drag on the phone. 9 out of 10 apps I open crash with the ‘not responding’ error.

Do you guys even test the stoopid update for bugs before putting it up for everyone? Or making people suffer and then them letting you know about the bugs, your way of testing!!!??? You guys are making me repent spending my hard earned money on this piece of crap. Thats the last Sony phone I am ever buying
