    Illumination bar not working / lighting up after update 4.4.4 kitkat

    After using an unoffical app from the playstore, to control the LED Illumination for M2 (D2303)  it stopped working completely, I even reset the phone using the PC companion. It won't show up for powering the phone on, any Sony app and all unofficial apps can't get it to work again.

    Ok I'm back after some reaseach.

     

    It seems that the update that Sony gave us for our Xperia M2s are rom bugged with the Andriod 4.4.4 KitKat Upadate.

    I have flashed the 4.3 update which is Jelly Bean and the Illumiator bar working 100%.

     

    Loaded up Albums and a pic of Konata and it blinded me with a long bright blue light.

    That seems like a hardware issue, contact your local Xperia Care
