Sony Xperia Z Ultra Not Bug-Free: Users Reportedly Facing Problems With Security Settings, Uninstalling Apps

Users are reportedly encountering problems while accessing security settings or uninstalling apps on Xperia Z Ultra, Google Play edition.

The Google iteration of Sony's flagship product, Xperia Z Ultra that released last week in the United States has many technical glitches. The bugs primarily include the inability to access the security settings and to uninstall apps.

Security setting are a necessity for smartphone users to prevent misuse of the device. But the Sony phablet, Xperia Z ultra users are facing problems accessing the feature. However, it's not clear whether the issue is widespread or limited to a few unfortunates.

The bug was first identified by JR Raphael, a tech blogger form Computer world. "This is the glitch I noticed on the Sony Xperia Z Ultra Google Play Edition. Not good," said Raphael on his Google+ page where he also posted a video about the bugs faced on the Google Play edition of Sony Xperia Z Ultra.

The other bug appears when one tries to uninstall unwanted apps. When a user tries it, an uninstall screen appears on the device with two options, Cancel and OK. On pressing OK the phablet starts rebooting, reveals a recent post on Androidcommunity.
