Make sense.

Apps are upgrading, so old phones won't work.

Darn~

Like those old computer rigs.



I am still using my old 09 rig to save money from buying new ones.

Now have to spend on phones instead sweat.gif

well..if you are willing to explore a bit, you can always flash a custom ROM to this phone to give it a new life..here mine running with Android Oreo 8.1 AOSP rclxms.gif . This is the most easy phone to play around with custom ROM. You can read from HERE slowly on how to flash your phone with custom ROM.

Will try that as a last resort.



I am planning to reset the phone.

Use a pin on the small hole undernearh the phone correct?


As you know, my phone can't launch Play Store.

So I use Chrome to install Whatsapp and Instagram.

The phone claimed that it has been installed but can't see nothing (icon) on the screen rclxub.gif

My bad.

I am not that IT savvy and I thought smartphones has such feature.



I have a feeling that reset might help with the issue.

reset can only help u with the space not enough problem. if you are planning to reset it, why not just flash it to custom rom? but first you must unlock your phone bootloader first.

Follow this guide..after that you can flash TWRP then flash the ROM that u want rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

Yeah that probably battery problem..as long as the battery is BA800 then it will fit. if possible, do buy the original one if you plan to still continue using this phone for a long time thumbsup.gif

Many claimed original in Lazada, Shopee.

With price < RM50.

How to know exactly?

Hi.

Replaced the battery; still won't turn ON.

Probably the phone itself has a fault.

Can send it for repair at SONY Service Centre?

Depends on the cost.

For a back up phone.
