I hope the update on sony xperia c will bring changes significant enough in terms of performance because I had a little lag in the UI when doing transfer page. and the first time I am still using version 6, any application can not be installed on the sd card, and I hope sony will give kitkat.
Already update to 16.0.B.2.13 but the following 2 problems still not resolved:
1. set ringtone in sd card will turn to default ringtone after every restart
2. set input method in sd card will turn to default after every restart
