Issues with talkback...

Has anyone enabled Talkback feature? It freezes the phone and slows down like anything that I couldn't even scroll down.. What the heck is this???

it works on my Xperia Z, uninstall any taskiller, antivirus, battery app > restart your phone and try again

I checked it on a brand new phone without any apps installed on it.. Anyway, I have sent my phone for replacement (due to no vibrations) and hopefully will get a new one in next 4 days.. So i'll check it after that.. I hope I dont come across any more problems...

one advice, as soon as you get your phone, repair it with SUS or PCC

Okk bro.. is it the 10.1.A.1.434 update? I'll do it as soon as I get my handset and after that install the apps..

BTW, any way to increase the speaker volumes? I have come from my lovely Arc to XZ and find it very low..

The Xperia Arc's loud speaker its amazing, from all my Xperias its the loudest, the Xperia T/TL its the closest followed by the Xperia S then X10 the Xperia Z it's somewhere between the T and S, then again the Xperia Z its waterproof

I have the same problem. I just updated my Xperia Z to the latest update (4.2.2 Jellybean, firmware 10.3.A.0.423), and decided to try talkback. The phone immediately became sluggish and unresponsive, and I am now unable to scroll. This means I can't disable the feature from the settings menu. Every menu item is highlighted with a box, and accompanied by a vibration. I have tried restarting the phone with no success, so I'm now in the process of repairing the phone using PC companion.

No need to repair using PCC.. U can change the settings again.. I know its quite heavy and difficult do but try it.. just disable talkback..
