Hi..
ok lets start!
I have got this phone almost 2 years..thats good news because i like the design of it. But...it worked fine aproxemetly half a year..then it started, or better to say "then they started"..i mean problems..first-phone eventually doesn`t recive sms for no reason and no logical explenation..ONly way to get mt sms is to repair my phone using pc companion or to take out sim and put it in other phone..Someone said that it is because of some apps but I have repaired phone and didn`t install any new app but the problem came again..so thats not app fault...next! The phone is ussless nowdays without wi-fi, right? So i use youtube a lot and when i want to watch some video wi-fi just disconnects..I use my own wi-fi not some neighbours..I go to searc pictures on web, wi-fi is steady..It seems like my phone can`t stand strong and fast internet..Really? It `smart` phone, isn`t it? ok, after time problem got a little bit less noticable, because it somehow "got used to internet..?" only sometimes it made that silly move to just disconnect wi-fi and don`t load the video..ok next! Si i have a smart phone with 32gb.. ok it shows in menu that it has only 27gb..ok thats not big deal...so there is a google play store with many beautiful and cool games and apps...so why are they for? to download! ok i have smart phone i can download a launcher app, a sms app and many other apps to make my phone unique inside..but what it does? It just keeps having heartattack even thou i have a lots of free memory and there arent so much apps running in the background! ok i use app that clears cach and clears unnecesary apps running..but still phone is so slow and laggy, like it would have 8mb ram...! but thats not so! ok next one! I connect it to pc, and want to put some movies on the phone! and what it does? first-i go to my sd card, it loads all folders, i go in one folder, then i go back to sd card, but it has to load all maps from beggining..and its good if it doesnt stuck loading for eternity..so i copy movie to video folder..ok it copies and suddenly happens either one or other thing: one the all process freezes and it pops up that windows explorer has stopped running (dont say its pc`s fault! it never happens when phone isn`t connected) so i have to force close explore, phone disconnects and movie havent copied at all...second-movie is copying and it is 5-20 secods left to finish..and it just stays ther for as long as it can (i mean window shows that I have left 10 seconds of copying time) so it stays there..when i clik the window it says that device has stopped working..nice! again no file has copied..and phone is disconnected..and I have to start everything from beggining...I tryed that app from pc companion that allows to copy files to phone..thats a bunch of balls! it is so unhandy! i even didn`t understand what i did there..if i copied and what i copied or where on my phone i copied....so in whole wide univers i like the phones design but it is really big pain in somewhere to do something wast and without errors with that phone! ok it was working just fine half of the year, but now there hasn`t been day on whitch i haven`t wanted to throm my long time saved money out of the window and smash it with hammer! seriously guys? thats a smart phone! if it cant do the things it is meant to do, the why you make such a phone? you make them so many so everyone could buy a phone, then after half a year you release updated version of every phoe before and in that time person whou bought the phone has already met first and second and every other problem with his phone and nothing helps so he thinks "oh, i should buy new phone so it is better than this..." yeah right! or he can repair his phone every other day and cant keep it just like he made it look like (i mean inner interface, apps and other stuff..after repair you need to set everything up from start) I realy like Sony brand and I want to stay with it as it was my first cell phones brand..but seriously..if you (Sony) will keep on going this mass production of phones with such a short lifetime..I have already looked other brand and I am interested to try that out even I don`t like it as much as Sony...thats not cool..
Also: whats with that (speaking about xperia S,P and U) seriously? combinig those phones would bea a really cool phone! but no..you separate it in three different..why not? because Sony is big brand and it can do everything it wants..and we people have no choice (better to say: we have so many choices that we cant get clear with that and we take that one with most beautiful comercial and design) so it is with this phonee.. It is cool looking but inside it is a piece of a brick..Deal with it! Think about havy users who wants to use everything that world gives to them..but they just can`t couse you think about how to earn more not how to please your custumers with really good phones! You didn`t think that making a good phone would earn you much more (money and fame) than bunch of small bricky phones...Think about that! or don`t..couse you don`t care about that...
Solved! Go to Solution.
lol. that's a long post.. to think it took you 2 years before you try to find out what's wrong with it. I'll try to aswer as much as i can.

It can happen because of the apps that you installed. Especially since some apps monitors SMS, notification, etc. The fact that repairing the phone fixes that issue shows exactly just that.

This is a typical internet issue. It's difficult to say if the issue is with the phone or the internet at that particular time. Too narrow down the issue, you would need to surf the same site on a different phone or pc/laptop connected to the same wi-fi at the same time.
> Si i have a smart phone with 32gb.. ok it shows in menu that it has only 27gb..
When a storage or memory says it has 32GB, it actually means 32GB unused, unformatted space. But to be able to use it, you will need a file system like FAT, NTFS, etc. This storage format will take additional space and display a different available space based on it's own calculations. That's you the actual space you have is always lesser that the indicated size.

Firstly, if I'm not wrong, the Xperia S only have 1GB memory. The 32GB is your internal DCard. The memory determines how many apps, including your Android system can run in the back ground while the SD Cards is used as your storage space for data including apps data, photos, music, and what not. Just because there's 100,000 apps in the Google Store, doesn't mean that you will need all of them. like how there are thousands of applications for the PC and you only need a few of them. You don't go and buy every single games in the shop and install it on your PC do u?
> ok next one! I connect it to pc, and want to put some movies on the phone! and what it does? first-i go to my sd card, it loads all folders, i go in one folder, then i go back to sd card, but it has to load all maps from beggining..and its good if it doesnt stuck loading for eternity..so i copy movie to video folder..ok it copies and suddenly happens either one or other thing: one the all process freezes and it pops up that windows explorer has stopped running (dont say its pc`s fault! it never happens when phone isn`t connected) so i have to force close explore, phone disconnects and movie havent copied at all...second-movie is copying and it is 5-20 secods left to finish..and it just stays ther for as long as it can (i mean window shows that I have left 10 seconds of copying time) so it stays there..when i clik the window it says that device has stopped working..nice! again no file has copied..and phone is disconnected..and I have to start everything from beggining...I tryed that app from pc companion that allows to copy files to phone..thats a bunch of balls! it is so unhandy! i even didn`t understand what i did there..if i copied and what i copied or where on my phone i copied....
The default USB connectivity settings is MTP( Media Transfer Mode). MTP is developed by Microsft, the same people who created your windows OS. And this would be the main issue you are facing here. MTP does not support parallelism, unlike normal USB Mass Storage mode, hence it will take longer to transfer large files. This especially is more obvious when transfering movies. If you need to transfer large amount of files, I suggest you connect the phone in USB Mass Storage Mode instead.and you will notice a huge different.
I tried to answer as much as I could but if you need more answers, free feel to Google. All the issues you mentioned is nothing new.
