Xperia Z2 start-up message

[dbogdan25]

Hello everyone,

I've encountered this issue (I don't know if I can call it an issue), with my Z2, when i turn it off, and back on, or when restarting the phone, after it has finished the starting sequence, it shows me in the middle of the screen a message saying: Powerfull communications, your messages are evolving....and some other text....and at the bottom it makes me enter my phone numer with country code....and to hit ok.....but it appears about 6 times, hitting ok for six times before it disappears! Thanks!

Is your phone network branded/locked to a carrier? custom ROM?

@dbogdan25

@uliwooly  No, i bought it unlocked from the store, only the SIM is on a contract...

Have you installed a 3rd party messaging app like EvolveSMS? as that message often appears when using that app

[dbogdan25]

No, I'm using the dedicated messaging app, but i have Hangouts (which i never used so far)

[Thommo]

Have you installed any messaging apps other than Hangouts etc?

[dbogdan25]

I'm adding a screenshot to be a bit helpful, but it's romanian it also says that I can share pictures and videos with friends right în the messaging app, and even bellow that I have to presa ok/retry (reîncercare),or to stop Wi-Fi connection. If i do that it's ok, but when i activate it it will show this and make me retry a few times and then leave me alone.

boot on safe mode and tell us if you experience the same start up message

if you do, remove the SIM card and try again.

So I have read that and I can't seem to make any connection to a network. I think a 3rd party app is involved.

Worked, booting in safe mode, i noticed that, multiple apps were gone, includind Facebook Messenger, which I suspect to be the problem! Thanks a lot!
