Thats because Stamina mode kicking in and disabling all data network towards those said apps. Like mentioned, try removing the exclusions and restart the phone before putting the exclusions back it. If it still doesn't work, you have to hard reset the phone then.

I have STAMINA mode on, Instagram is NOT in my excluded list and I don't face such error. Just sharing. =)

The most annoying thing happen to my phone is not allowed to move file to SD card :\ although it is not Sony fault.

Can't wait for exploit to root the phone .

Isolated case I presume.

Its been like this since android Kitkat. Not Sony's fault. Apparently, Android doesnt want the apps to be moved to sdcard storage because reading speeds will be slower thus stalling app opening times.

Okay I will try that and see the result tomorrow. Thanks for guiding btw.

Welcome.

I wanna save the pictures, video and music into SD card.
Such of limitation is so annoying.

I think such of SD protection is unnecessary.

I heard some other manufacturers are removing this but Sony didn't.

You "Can" save pictures, videos and music into SD memory. For pictures, just got to camera settings---> Save to---> Select Sd Card.

For existing songs, pictures and videos, you can download Apps such as File Manager to move the said items into sd card memory.

What I meant by 'unmovable' are Apps. Apps cannot be moved to sd storage anymore unless your phone is rooted.

Hmm..

Never encountered this before. Anybody having the same predicament? What are you trying to save to the sd card anyway? Like I mentioned, if you are trying to move apps over to sd card to save phone memory, you need not try as this is not permissable by android kitkat.

MP3, pictures and video.
But the SD card is in protection mode now, which is read-only. No matter move, delete or rename are not allowed.

Is the Sd card formatted to android directory? Was it from a previous android phone. If it is not, then im afraid you have to format the Sd Card and set it up as new on your Z3. It would definately work. I recommend you back up the content to your pc first before formatting.

It is a new card.
But i will try your suggestion later.

So annoying.

You should should try plugging it to a card reader, and check the Read Write option on the SD card before formatting it.

The card is definitely in write mode. If not i can't copy the files into it.

It is just the phone cannot write it.

Actually i did some google search before, it is kitkat new security feature.

There are some apps which can modify it, which need root access.

use the file manager (File Commander) that comes with the phone. other third party file managers wont work unless you root your phone.

Oh thanks.
Seem like Sony add exclusion list for this app.
But i like to use astro file manager more

The most annoying thing to me is still how we are not allowed to set custom ringtone for a specific contact group. Brr... Such feature has been available since the monophonic ringtone era but now it is not being allowed in Sony.

I feedback this to Sony. Don't know will they feature it in future updates.

Thanks mate!

Another problem is, not too sure if this is a Sony problem or an Android problem, but after viewing a contact and when I go back, I actually expect the screen to stay at where I was instead of going back to the top of the contact list.
