Xperia Z2 start-up message

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?

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

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

Have you installed any messaging apps other than Hangouts etc?

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.

@dbogdan25

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

http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/How-to-boot-your-phone-into-safe-mode/m-p/348008#U348008

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!
