Lollipop update and Style Cover Window SCR24

Hi.

 Yesterday, after updating my Z3 onto Android Lollipop, I cannot use my phone's Style Cover Window SCR24's window for answering calls, disabling alarms etc. Touch window just doesn't function anymore. If and when will Sony repair this? Do I have to wait for a firmware update or is there something hidden in the settings/apps I can enable/disable myself?

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Riho.

I have the same problem and also the same version as Rihop. How do I reconnect the cover with NFC? I can only enable or disable NFC in general.

You got to be kidding me... I removed my Z3 from the case and just "re-slide" the cover with my phone. So slide the NFC chip of the cover with my phone's NFC, the back of my phone, again. Then it said "style cover detected" and now it works!!! That was all!

Hi Olaf.

 So touch functionality thru the window now works on your phone? If so then I just have to try to reconnect once again. Maybe third time's a charm Slightly_smiling_Face

Yes, I just reslided it with the back of my phone, so reconnected and now it works. I called myself and I could answer the phone with the case closed. Also, now when I close the case, the display is altered to fit in the case window again.

Just let me know if you want me to test other things.

 And yes - third time WAS a charm Slightly_smiling_Face I again reconnected my phone with the cover, again downloaded theme/software and magically everything started working.

 Thanks so much Olaf and best regards.

I have tried doing the above severally and my cover is still not working.
When I re-slided against the back of the phone it picked up the style cover but whenever I close the cover it says style cover has stopped or nothing at all.
Please help.

Hi.

 Does it ask you to download and install Style Cover software after connecting?
