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.

Glad to hear that it works now Slightly_smiling_Face

As ScottishLad says, we have started rolling out a new version of the Style Cover app now. The availability of this update may depend on local and operator approvals so it's not certain that you have received it yet.

Please let me know in case you should still see any issue with the new version.

When you close the cover, what the smart window displays?

If it displays a big plus icon, click on it, open the cover, then select "Style cover widget" from the list.

If it displays nothing, remove the cover, re-pait it by touching NFC tags, then re-attach it.

Hello @Quester

When I close the cover, the smart window displays this :

it displays a big plus icon, and when Iclick on it, & open the cover, I don't see "Style cover widget" item in the list :

I already tried to remove the cover, re-pait it by touching NFC tags, then re-attach it.

Maybe @Richard will have a look on this issue ...

First make sure that you don't have any disabled apps under Settings -> Apps -> Disabled.

If that's not the cause, go to settings -> Apps -> All and clear data for Style Cover and Style Cover widget and then restart the phone, pair using NFC and see if that helps.

Hi there,

I have a new problem with my wife's Z3 Compact and the SCR26 Style Cover that I have not yet found online. I hope you will be able to help.

I bought the cover as my new Z5 with the Style Cover works nice and flawlessly.

Now for the specific problem.

When I try to pair the SCR26 with the Z3 by NFC, I only get the message:

New tag collected

somc://com.sonymobile.coverapp?FV=1&CT=1&CC=-1&WW=336&TM=155&VM=Sony_SCR26&DP=com.sonymobile.themes.cover.black

So I think I see that the correct cover is recognised, but that is all. Nothing else happens, and after downloading the style cover themes there is no sign of any reaction to the cover being opened or closed.

I already tried every solution published on these pages, but nothing works so far.

What do I miss or do wrong? How can I help my wife?

Is it true that you can't get it to work yet with Marshmallow? I have the concept edition and installed the apk, enabled it also in notifications but still doesn't work.
