Answer 1

You should test your app on this phone and explore logcat for error details. If you have no access to the device you could do one of the following:

1. Install sony add-on and try to test on their avd: http://developer.sonymobile.com/knowledge-base/sony-add-on-sdk/install-the-sony-add-on-sdk/

2. If app is published on market there is section in admin area where you could see crash information if user have sent crash details after it happened.

3. There is a service where you could test your apps on almost any real device and see logcat - http://www.perfectomobile.com/ - it's pretty expensive, but I think they have free trial with limited number of devices - may be xperia is among these devices.
