This is not stock and I think you don't remember what you installing on your phone.

wow thanks for the quick reply guys but i did not in anyway try to root or unlock the bootloader of the ph. from what i understand is required to mod it +1 to both of u
so yh i dont think i installed a mod and i dnt also it fixes itself at times if i restart the ph.

Installed apps from third-party source? Maybe ur phone got hacked. I've read about ransomware that's out there at the moment

It is Xperia XAlert. If you have already granted it device admin rights, there is nothing you can do. Try to uninstall it and see. Or Open it and see if you remember the password so that you can disable it.

ok this man is a hero i will build statues in ur glory and people will remember the name Beautyspin for centuries forth! :D

anyway this is how i fixed it

i force restarted the ph. then downloaded a task manager and force closed x alert then i was able to access my settings from which i followed these steps


App is good for security but once you activate it and enable password for applications it gives you really bad annoying experience. To fix the issue, please do following:

If you have Screen lock = Pattern then you need to change it to PIN
Go to Settings => Security => Device Administrator and untick X - Alert for XPERIA
Now go to Settings => Apps => All = Select X - Alert for XPERIA
Click on Force Stop and do Clear Cache

thank you all for the feedback bros i'll send everyone cookies in mail :p
