Why do I need a Google™ account?
Your Xperia™ device from Sony runs on the Android™ platform developed by
Google™. A range of Google™ applications and services is available on your device
when you purchase it, for example, Gmail™, Google Maps™, YouTube™ and the
Play Store™ application, which gives you access to the Google Play™ online store
for downloading Android™ applications. To get the most out of these services, you
need a Google™ account. For example, a Google™ account enables you to do all of
the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Download and install applications from Google Play™.
Synchronise your email, contacts and calendar using Gmail™.
Chat with friends using the Duo™ application.
Synchronise your browsing history and bookmarks using the Google Chrome™ web
browser.
Identify yourself as the authorised user after a software repair using Xperia™
Companion.
Remotely ind, lock or clear a lost or stolen device using the my Xperia™ or
Android™ Device Manager services.
For more information about Android™ and Google™, go to
http://support.google.com.
It is crucial that you remember your Google™ account username and password. In some
situations, you may need to identify yourself for security reasons using your Google™ account.
If you fail to give your Google™ username and password in such situations, your device is
locked. Also, if you have more than one Google™ account, make sure to enter the details for
the relevant account.

Screen lock
There are several screen lock options available. The security level of each lock type is
listed below in order of weakest to strongest:
•
•
•
•
Swipe: no protection, but you have quick access to the Home screen.
Pattern: draw a simple pattern with your inger to unlock your device.
PIN: enter a numeric PIN of at least four digits to unlock your device.
Password: enter an alpha-numeric password to unlock your device.
It is very important that you remember your screen lock pattern, PIN or password. If
you forget this information, it may not be possible to restore important data such as
contacts and messages. If you have set up a Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync®
(EAS) account on your Xperia™ device, the EAS security settings may limit the lock
screen type to only a PIN or password. This occurs when your network administrator
speciies a lock screen type for all EAS accounts for enterprise security reasons.
Contact the network administrator of your company or organisation to check what
network security policies are implemented for mobile devices.

Unlocking your device automatically
The Smart Lock feature makes unlocking your device easier by letting you set it to
unlock automatically in certain situations. You can keep your device unlocked, for
example, when it’s connected to a Bluetooth® device or when you’re carrying it with
you. With Smart Lock enabled you still need to unlock your device manually after
restarting, and after leaving the device inactive for 4 hours.

You can set Smart Lock to keep your device unlocked using the following settings:
On-body detection [udoc_trans_smart_lock_onbody_detection] : Keep your device unlocked when
you're carrying it with you.
Trusted places [udoc_trans_smart_lock_trusted_places] : Keep your device unlocked when you're in a
familiar, secure location such as your home.
Trusted devices [usbux_strings_trusted_hosts_title_txt] : Keep your device unlocked when a trusted
Bluetooth® or NFC device is connected.
Trusted face [smart_lock_trusted_face] : Unlock your device by looking at it.
Trusted voice [smart_lock_trusted_voice] : Set up voice recognition to search in any screen.
The Smart Lock feature is developed by Google™ and its exact functionality may change over
time due to updates from Google™. Furthermore the feature may not be available in every
market, country or region.

Keeping your device unlocked while you’re carrying it
Using the On-body detection feature, you can keep your device unlocked while
you're carrying it in your hand or in a pocket or bag. The accelerometer in your device
keeps your device unlocked while it senses that it's being carried. The device locks
when the accelerometer detects that the device has been put down.
When you use the On-body detection feature, you need to be aware of the following
behaviours:

•

•
•
•
Any time you put your device down and it senses that it's no longer being carried, it
locks automatically.
The device can take up to one minute to lock.
After you get into a car, bus, train or other land vehicle, your device can take between
5 and 10 minutes to lock.
Note that when you get on an airplane or a boat (or another non-land based vehicle),
your device may not lock automatically, so make sure to lock it manually if needed.
When you pick up your device again or get out of the vehicle, just unlock it once and
your device then stays unlocked for as long as you have it on you.
The On-body detection feature can't distinguish whose body is connected. If you give your
device to someone else while it's unlocked using On-body detection, your device may stay
unlocked for the other user. Keep in mind that On-body detection as a security feature is less
secure than a pattern, PIN, or password.

Connecting to trusted devices
You can designate a connected device as trusted and keep your Xperia™ device
unlocked while connected. If you have a device that you connect to regularly using
Bluetooth® or NFC, for example, a home entertainment system or a itness tracker,
you can add it as a trusted device and bypass the added security of the lock screen
to save time. This feature is suitable if you’re normally in a relatively secure place
when you use these devices. In some cases, you may still need to manually unlock
your device before a trusted device can be connected.
It is not recommended to add devices that are constantly connected to your device as trusted
devices, for example, Bluetooth® keyboards or cases.
As soon as a trusted device is switched off or moves out of range, your screen locks and you
need your PIN, pattern or password to unlock it.

Making sure you're secure when using trusted devices
Different Bluetooth® devices support different Bluetooth® standards and security
capabilities. There's a possibility that someone could keep your Xperia™ device
unlocked by imitating your Bluetooth® connection, even if your trusted device is no
longer nearby. Your device is not always able to determine whether your connection
is secure from someone trying to imitate it.
When your device can't determine whether you're using a secure connection, you'll
get a notiication on your Xperia™ device and may need to manually unlock it before
the trusted device can keep it unlocked.
Bluetooth® connectivity range can vary depending on factors like the model of your device,
the connected Bluetooth® device, and your environment. Depending on these factors,
Bluetooth® connections can work over distances up to 100 metres.

SIM card protection
You can lock and unlock each SIM card that you use in your device with a PIN
(Personal Identiication Number). When a SIM card is locked, the subscription linked
to the card is protected against misuse, meaning that you have to enter a PIN every
time you start your device.
If you enter the PIN incorrectly too many times, your SIM card will get blocked. You
then need to enter your PUK (Personal Unblocking Key) and a new PIN. Your PIN and
PUK are supplied by your network operator.

Locking and unlocking the screen
When your device is on and left idle for a set period of time, the screen darkens to
save battery power and locks automatically. This lock prevents unwanted actions on
the touchscreen when you are not using it. When you buy your device, a basic screen
swipe lock is already set. This means that you have to swipe left or upwards on the
screen to unlock it. You can change the security settings later and add other kinds of
locks. See Screen lock on page 13.

The Home screen is the starting point for using your device. It's similar to the desktop
on a computer screen. Your Home screen can have up to twenty panes, which
extend beyond the regular screen display width. The number of Home screen panes
is represented by a series of dots at the lower part of the Home screen. The
highlighted dot shows the pane that is currently displayed.

Background and themes
Your device comes with a default background, but you can adapt the Home screen
and Lock screen to your own style using wallpapers and themes featuring different
colours and patterns.
A wallpaper may be used without changing any of the other elements of your Home
screen and Lock screen. Live wallpapers add visual effects to your interactions with
the touch screen, letting the display change dynamically.
Themes can include a wallpaper, a screensaver, title bars, and a sound scheme that
all it together to create a unique look and feel for your device.

Charging your device
Always use an original Sony charger and USB Type-C™ [USB Type-C-tm] cable intended for your
speciic Xperia™ model. Other chargers and cables may increase charging time, not charge at
all, or may even damage your device. Make sure all USB ports and connectors are completely
dry, before inserting the USB Type-C™ [USB Type-C-tm] cable.
A wall socket charger will charge your device faster than charging via your computer.
You can still use your device while charging.
If the battery is depleted, it may take up to 30 minutes for your device to respond to
the charging. During this time, the screen may remain completely dark, not showing

Battery and power management
Your device has an embedded battery. To get the most use from it, keep track of the
power consumed by different apps and features. Background power saving features
are activated by default to help you reduce battery consumption, and additional
power saving modes are available to help you reduce battery consumption further
when necessary.
Power saving features lower the priority for certain non-essential device functions,
such as higher grade image performance, network activities such as location
services, app synchronisation and background Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] scanning. If
you do not want an application to be affected, you can exempt it in the Battery
optimisation menu. Phone calls and SMS are not affected.
System updates may change the power saving features available on your device.

General usage tips to improve battery performance
The following tips can help you improve battery performance:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Lower the screen brightness level, see Screen settings on page 90.
Turn off Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] and location services when you
don't need these features.
Turn off your device or use Airplane mode if you are in an area with no or low
network coverage. Otherwise, your device repeatedly scans for available
networks, and this consumes power.
Use a Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] network instead of roaming when abroad.
Roaming is scanning for your home network and puts additional demands on
your battery as your device must transmit with a higher output power, see WiFi on page 72.
Change the synchronisation settings for your email, calendar and contacts, see
Synchronising with online accounts on page 84.
Check the applications that have a high battery consumption and consider the
battery saving tips provided on your device for these applications.
Change the notiication level for an application, see Notiications on page 38.
Turn off the location-sharing permission for an application, see Application
settings on page 93.
Uninstall applications that you are not using, see Application screen on
page 30.
Use a Sony original handsfree device to listen to music. Handsfree devices
consume less battery than your device's loudspeakers.
Restart your device every now and then.

Updating your device
You should update the software on your device to get the latest functionality,
enhancements and bug ixes in order to ensure optimal performance. When a
software update is available, ID: ICN-SONY-STAT-NOTIFY-SYSTEM-UPDATE appears in the status
bar. You can also check for new updates manually, or schedule an update.
The easiest way to install a software update is to do it wirelessly from your device.
However, some updates are not available for wireless download. You then need to
use the Xperia™ Companion software on a PC or on an Apple® Mac® computer to
update your device.
•
•
•
Before updating your device, consider the following:
Ensure you have suficient storage capacity before attempting to update.
If you are using a device with multiple users, you must log in as the owner, that is, the
primary user, to update the device.
System and application updates can present the features on your device in another
way than described in this User guide. The Android™ version might not be affected
after an update.

Storage and memory
•
•
•
Your device has several different storage and memory options.
The internal storage is about 16 [internal-storage-memory-available-GB] GB and is used to store
downloaded or transferred content along with personal settings and data. Some
examples of data saved to the internal storage are alarm, volume and language
settings, emails, bookmarks, calendar events, photos, videos and music.
You can use a removable memory card with a storage capacity of up to 256 [memory-cardavailable-GB] GB to get more storage space. Media iles and some apps, along with their
associated data, can be moved to this type of memory to free up internal storage.
Some apps, for example, the Camera app, can save data directly to a memory card.
The dynamic memory (RAM) is about 2 [dynamic-memory-available-GB] GB and cannot be used
for storage. RAM is used to handle running applications and the operating system.
You may have to purchase a memory card separately.

your device at www.sonymobile.com/support/.

To send multimedia messages, or to access the internet when there is no available
Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] network, you must have a working mobile data connection
with the correct internet and MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service) settings. Here are
some tips:
For most mobile networks and operators, internet and MMS settings come preinstalled on your device. You can then start using the internet and send multimedia
messages right away.
It is possible to download these settings via Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] .
You can manually add, change or delete internet and MMS settings on your device at
any time. If you change or delete an internet or MMS setting by mistake, download
the internet and MMS settings again.
If you cannot access the internet over a mobile network or if multimedia messaging is
not working, even though the internet and MMS settings have been downloaded
successfully to your device, refer to the troubleshooting tips for your device at
www.sonymobile.com/support/ for network coverage, mobile data, and MMS issues.
If the Battery time preferred setting of STAMINA mode is activated to save power, all
mobile data trafic gets paused when the screen is off. If this causes connection
problems, try excluding some applications and services from being paused, or
deactivate STAMINA mode temporarily.
If you are sharing a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary
user, can download internet and messaging settings from the Settings menu, but the
downloaded settings are applicable to all users.

Controlling data usage
You can keep track of the amount of data transferred to and from your device over
your mobile data or Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain] connection during a given period. For
example, you can view the amount of data used by individual applications. For data
transferred over your mobile data connection, you can also set data usage warnings
and limits to avoid additional charges.
If you are using a device with multiple users, only the owner, that is, the primary user, can
adjust data usage settings. Adjusting data usage settings can help you keep greater control
over data usage but cannot guarantee the prevention of additional charges.

Virtual private networks (VPNs)
Use your device to connect to virtual private networks (VPNs), which allow you to
access resources inside a secured local network from a public network. For example,
VPN connections are commonly used by corporations and educational institutions for
users who need to access intranets and other internal services when they are outside
of the internal network, for example, when they are travelling.
VPN connections can be set up in many ways, depending on the network. Some
networks may require you to transfer and install a security certiicate on your device.
For detailed information about how to set up a connection to your virtual private
network, contact the network administrator of your company or organisation.
If you are using a device with multiple users, you may need to log in as the owner, that is, the
primary user, to adjust the settings for VPN.

Synchronising with Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync®
If your company uses a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account, you can access
your corporate email messages, calendar appointments and contacts directly on your
device. After setup, you can ind your information in the Email [email] , Calendar [calendar]
and Contacts [contactsList] applications.
If you have set up a Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® (EAS) account on your Xperia™
device, the EAS security settings may limit the lock screen type to only a PIN or password.
This occurs when your network administrator speciies a lock screen type for all EAS accounts
for enterprise security reasons. Contact the network administrator of your company or
organisation to check what network security policies are implemented for mobile devices.

Screen pinning
Use screen pinning to set your device to display only the screen for a speciic
application. For example, if you are playing a game and you accidentally touch the
Home navigation key, the screen pinning feature prevents the active game app screen
from being minimised. You can also use this feature when you lend your device to
another person to make it harder for them to access more than one application. For
example, you can lend your device to somebody to take a photo and pin the screen
to the Camera application so that the person can't easily use other apps such as
Email.
Screen pinning is not a security feature and does not fully prevent other users from unpinning a
screen and accessing your device. To protect your data, you should set up your device to
request a screen lock PIN, password or pattern before someone can unpin the screen.

Allowing or denying automatic application updates
If the automatic update feature is enabled, your applications get updated without you
being asked, so you may not realise that large volumes of data are being
downloaded. In order to avoid potentially high data transfer costs, you can disable
automatic updates or enable automatic updates only over Wi-Fi [udoc_no_trans_wifi_wlan_plain]
connection. You have to disable the automatic update feature both in the Play
Store™ app and the What's New app (where available) to avoid the automatic
updating of apps.

Multiple user accounts
Your device supports multiple user accounts so that different users can log in
separately to the device and use it. Multiple user accounts work well in situations
where you share the same device with other people or lend your device to someone
to use for a while. The user who sets up the device for the irst time becomes the
owner of the device. Only the owner can manage the accounts of other users. Apart
from the owner account, there are two different types of accounts:
•
•
Regular User: This account type is suitable for someone who regularly uses your
device.
Guest User: Enable the guest account option for someone who just wants to use your
device temporarily.
Some features are only available to the owner. For example, only the owner can allow
downloads from sources other than Google Play™.

Reading and sending messages
The Messaging application shows your messages as conversations, which means
that all messages to and from a particular person are grouped together.
The number of characters that you can send in a single message varies depending on the
operator and the language you use. The maximum size of a multimedia message, which
includes the size of added media iles, is also operator dependent. Contact your network
operator for more information.

Listening to the radio
The FM radio in your device works like any FM radio. For example, you can browse
and listen to FM radio stations and save them as favourites. You must connect a
wired headset or headphones to your device before you can use the radio. This is
because the headset or headphones act as an antenna. After one of these devices is
connected, you can then switch the audio to the speaker, if desired.

Sharing and managing photos and videos
You can share photos and videos that you’ve saved on your device. You can also
manage them in different ways. For example, you can work with photos in batches,
delete photos and link them to contacts. If you have lots of photos saved on your
device, it’s a good idea to regularly transfer them to a computer or to an external
storage device in order to avoid any unpredictable loss of data. Doing so also frees
up more space on your device. See Managing iles using a computer on page 61.
You might not be able to copy, send or transfer copyright-protected items. Also, some items
may not send if the ile size is too large.

Pairing with another Bluetooth® device
When you pair your device with another device, you can for example connect your
device to a Bluetooth® headset or a Bluetooth® car kit, and use these other devices
to share music.
Once you pair your device with another Bluetooth® device, your device remembers
this pairing. When pairing your device with a Bluetooth® device for the irst time, you
may need to enter a passcode. Your device will automatically try the generic
passcode 0000. If this does not work, refer to the user guide for your Bluetooth®
device to get the device passcode. You do not need to re-enter the passcode the
next time you connect to a previously paired Bluetooth® device.
Some Bluetooth® devices, for example, most Bluetooth® headsets, require you to both pair
and connect with the other device.
You can pair your device with several Bluetooth® devices, but you can only connect to one
Bluetooth® proile at the same time.
