Sony Xperia Z1, Android 4.3 streaming video problem

[Voy]

Hello

Recent Z1 update broke phone quite a lot. I cannot watch streaming videos (youtube, vimeo ect.) through wifi ("Connection to server lost Touch to retry") and through 4G videos are locking at around 20s. Does anyone else experience this problem? Is there a solution for that?

@MI5 is this a case of a hard reset after an update ?

Always worthwhile and also use pc companion to do a firmware repair.

Confirms forkingabouts advice

If you are network locked to O2 it will take a while to become available unfortunately because of O2's desire to "Give you the best possible user expeirience"

If you are SIM free then it should be available soon as Sony rolls out in batches to stop server overload.

If you are SIM free check in Settings>About phone>Check For Updates.

Only do this once a day though as each time you do it it sets you to the back of the queue of your batch number if it's not available yet.

If your O2 locked your gonna either have to flash it via XDA and Flashtool or just wait it out

I have found the problem. I had proxy set in my wifi network settings (in phone), which I didn't set.

Switched proxy off and phone worked normally, but after some time it switched proxy on again itself.

Now I know how to fix it (switch off proxy in wifi settings), but don't know how to stop it from happening again. My router doesn't have any option to automatically set proxy, so it might be websites I visit through my phone.

[Edit] Found what is causing proxy switching on
