Can no longer use Transfer to SD card with the new firmware update 23.0.1.A.3.12

[kiko66613]

I just got the latest update for my Z2. My device now has a firmware 23.0.1.A.3.12.

I encountered a problem. I can no longer transfer photos to SD card thru the Transfer to SD Card under Storage.

@Thommo Hi,

If after 5 days the problem still persist, I may consider that. I will have to observe my Z2 for the meantime.

If the problem is still there, my I get a link of a detailed instruction on how to perform the system repair with the PC Companion? Thank you very much for your help.

Instructions on how to perform a system repair using Pc Companion are at the bottom of page one

So I finally decided to perform a repair of my Z2 following the instructions given by both @Thommo and @Xperyan. After the repair, I performed a recover of settings and stuff from a backup in my Google account and also restored some from the PC Companion backup.

So far this is my feedback

> The transfer to SC card is now back. (yay!)

> THe sounds is still not as loud with the xLoud.

> The overheating of the phone seems lower now.

> I have somehow disabled the "what's new" udner the hold home button, I can't remember how I did it now as I cannot disable it under apps.

So far after 24 hours, no real problems encountered. Will update if anything unsual happens.

Thank you Sony community.

Hi Kiko,

May I know if you have recovered lost images after the fix? 

Thanks. - JB

Hello @billy, I have not lost any image because I have backed up all my images to the SD card, manually before the fix. I used File Commander because its the only file management app that allows writing to the SD card. You could still use a PC though.
The images were not hard to find and backed uo since I regularly use the Transfer to SD card feature.

Regards,
Kiko

Good that you have backup @kiko. My problem is for those images that has been corrupted during transfer interruption, i already tried even recuva and other file recovery software but still, were not able to recover. Whoa. Thanks.
