The above process also completely wipes your phone. The 'backup' element of the PC Companion software takes a very long time but does NOT back very much up. Wifi settings seem to be the only useful thing backed up/restored.

I am still having problems trying to get my wifi to come on seems to be first thing in the morning but I press the shortcut or the switch button and nothing happens I've tried turning off stamina mode which was recommended to me but to no effect anyone else having this problem

u can back up your phone on an external sd card or the internal partition which wouldnt wipe but would advice you to back up via sd card

Both my wifes and my Z2 keep dropping wifi in the house and its really really starting to cause anger issues. All the other gadgets and devices in house dont drop the wifi

As said above, even in the same room as the router its dropping

@SimondoCole I didn't have this problem although I can understand you and your wife's frustration with it. I followed sonys advice and reset my Z2 through the computer companion and it has fixed my problem what I think I might of done was removed apps I didn't use and although I thought you could do that and there shouldn't be a problem but it looks like that might of been a cause hopefully this might help you

@Simondocole yeah those instructions but remember to back up your phone's first to sd card and then use that back up to reload your apps settings etc oh and good luck
