Xperia 10 VI "Control from locked device" option issue

The latest update 70.0.A.3.169 has been installed.

And the "Control from locked device" option doesn't work.

In any state of this checkbox - I can open the notification panel on the locked screen and control the phone settings.

For example, I can switch the locked phone to airplane mode. This is a huge security hole!

The "Control from locked device" checkbox should disable the ability to access the notification panel. On other phones this is exactly how it works.

This problem exists on both XQ-ES54 and XQ-ES72 versions of the phone.

So it needs to be fixed, and not just given template advice on updating the software.

Hey @Konstont1n 

 

Sometimes, some functions on the phone glitches after a software update, so try to do a software repair by the Xperia companion will reset the device and reinstall the update again (just make sure to back up your data first).

If it remained after that, you would need to contact Sony and let them know the issue so they can help either by an advice, or by an update
