UltraStamina wipes list of turned-off apps

Hello, guys!
After Lollipop goes we have UltraStamina mode. So I have a problem with this mode.
In normal mode I turn off some applications (like Google+, Social etc). I don't need them.
After I use Ultra Stamina mode, then to come back in Normal mode I need to reboot my phone. But after rebooting that list of turned-off apps is wiped. So it's unnormal I must again turn-off manually every unused app.
Could someone explain and help?

Hi,

when I disable some apps (e.g. File Commander) on my Xperia, then enter Ultra Stamina mode, and then leave Ultra Stamina mode, the apps are enabled again (except a few). This is obviously very annoying.

When disabling apps and just rebooting (no ultra stamina), the apps remain disabled though.

thanks for any help!

Right. Basically a few days ago I updated to the latest softwear. All was fine. I then tested out Ultra stamina mode, and my phone hasn't been the same since. It look countless tries to get it to work, and when it eventually did, I couldn't leave it. My phone is still more or less the same, it's like it's in safe mode.

It's deleted LOADS of my apps. Snapchat, instagram, messenger, and even apps already on the phone are gone. I can't get to my notes (which I Really need) and yeah the list goes on. When I check in my 'apps' it lists that they're still there and I can remove them etc. But the app store has gone. I tried going online and just downloading my apps, but it doesn't work and says I already have them. It also won't let me install any other apps which I don't already have. When I swipe down, all my settings from the top are gone.

But what's weird is that it's kept some apps? E.g twitter, whatsapp, skype, tripadviser. So how come it's only deleted some?

Yeah I know the easy solution is to wipe my phone, and I'm trying to, but half the time my computer doesn't detect my phone. I've tried this on three different laptops using every usb lead in my house. Sometimes eventually it does detect it. And I've backed up all my photos videos and music, but that's all my pc companion will do. I can try using a transfer thing on there to 'transfer from my old phone to my new' but it just says to download an app off the app store. But I can't do this. It just messes up and won't download.

Is there any alternatives to Sony's pc companion? As that literally won't work. It worked before when I broke my phone around a year ago, I could back up everything without using my phone. But now it's telling me to use my phone to do it, which I think is completely stupid of sony because obviously if your phones broke, you can't do this.

Please please please please please someone help me

I've literally tried for agesssss and nothing will work. I really need my notes back because it has my college work which is late to be handed in saved on there Slightly_frowning_Face

The issue with disabled apps being enabled again after Ultra Stamina will be fixed in the next software update.
