I recently purchased the xperia x10i and now i am facing the most basic phone problem i.e. the in-ear volume is very low. I updated my phone to 2.1 but still no change. One thing that I am aware of is that my phone's hardware is fine because whenever i go into secret service menu and test the volume it is fine.
So what i wanted ask was is there a fix for this problem or any sort of app that can enhance the volume of my phone..??
Im sorry to tell you that but untill now there is no fix for that

Hi,
My Xperia S suddenly quit vibrating at all, not for (text) msg's, incoming mail/sms etc, and haptic feedback for the 3
bottom keys doesnt work as well as that for the keyboard. Yesterday for some reason it stopped, but after a while it
returned. However, atm there's no vibrating at all again, which is annoying since I dont like to check everytime if I have a
msg or not.
I did not turn it off myself, and checking the settings it's still on. Furthermore nothing happened to the phone in terms of
mechanical damage. I did not recently (last few days) install new apps, but updated to firmware 6.1.A.2.45 5 days ago.
I dont think that has anything to do with the problem though, since the problem occurred only yesterday.
Phone software is just the original stock software.
Anyone recognizing this problem and perhaps has an idea on how to solve it? I'd be very thankful...
Thanks in advance,
Nanoxy
Send it to Sony to repair vibration.

Hm actually I hoped it could be some software bug... I wouldnt be happy to
send it to sony etc... too much trouble
Isnt there some code I can dial to check if vibration works at all? I think I read somewhere about it but cant find it now...
And, if I use "back up and repair" function of pc companion, and repair using a back up of lets say 1 week ago, will I lose any data?
I mean of course I lose things I did this week, but for the rest are there things I should know before trying this?
Same here ever sinceci updated to ics ( any chance you live in belgium too)?

The Netherlands, so close...
But well, total reset + restore with back up does not help... I find it hard to believe that its a hardware problem though...
how's that possible for no reason :s

Yeah mine worked all the time, but stopped working at a moment not close to an update...
besides, vibration is not AT ALL working... I cant even force it to vibrate after installing some
of those sad "vibrator" apps or whatever... I'm afraid the only thing I can do is let it repair, which totally sucks.

Yeah thats what I meant, but... if I choose vibration at "service tests" it wont work...
does that mean its just 'broken'?
Got the same problem with my Acro S ...
Same problem on my Xperia S. Ran the vibrator test without any issues - doesnt seem to be a hardware problem.
There's always something.

Sony Xperia S' vibrate and screen lock are not working.

I dont think that has anything to do with the problem though, since the problem occurred twice week.
Then security screen lock's not work. I check the setting slide is still on. So, Why that not working?
Please reply me.

Thanks in advance,
same problem with my Xperia SP
suddenly vibration gone !!
last night i had vibration and today i dont just like that !!
i even downgrade to official sony stock ROM but still dont have vibration
its really strange by the way..
I would like to start by saying hi to everyone who helps to contribute on this website
its no surprise that even if we have our phone locked (with pin/pattern/password) anyone can STILL turn the phone OFF,
Making this flaw an advantage for thieves......So ive been searching around and havent beem able to find any solution to this.
Im an xperia P user, so its not possible to remove the battery (thus turn the phone off) and few persons know about reset method (power + volumen)
I would like to know if there is a way to disable/remove/hide power off option until phone is unlocked, or find a workaround to help this issue, (maybe wake up screen with camera key......etc)
I believe this is a obvious bug that Should be fixed......once this issue is resolved it would be a Must have Mod or App.....
thanks in advance.......hope we all make this happen
i think this option is not a bug but necessity, what will we do if we are locked out and don't remember pin/pattern etc? with a non-removable battery this will cause major disassembly.
If u can't remember your pattern or pin u shouldn't be using this feature, on the other side if u forget ur pin u can still reboot with power + volume, and access CWM.

The goal is to block the thief from turning off the phone and be able to call it and find it. If they can turn it off there isn't much u can do..... Hope I make my point clear as English is not my primary language.....

If we can reboot, anybody can. And if we can't nobody can

Hi. Got a strange sound problem on my S3. Have Omega Rom installed XXEMB5 v 43.1 and J-Kay 14.92.9. Stock Kernel After some time my phone does not have any sound. If i try to play a sound withsound player it says that it is not supported. Cannot play any Youtube video, no ringtone or notification sound. If I reboot the phone everything works normal again for some time until the problem is there again. Tried to reset to factory, wiped and reformatted the internal and external memory card and reinstalled Rom and Jkay. Anyone knows about this problem or have a solution?

I'd install a stock ROM to test the speaker. That will tell you if the problem is the custom ROM, which it may well be. Otherwise, ask in the specific ROM's thread that the dev started.
Hi, I think I am having the same problem.
About 30 minutes ago I missed a call, Phone was on my desk 2 meters away?? He then rang back and the phone was in front of me with the call screen but no sound, I checked all volume levels and they were all high. Now when I altered the volume with the rocker switch (Down then up) the volume came back
I also had this same problem a few weeks ago when I was running custom Samsung roms, But that was mainly to do with the alarm going off but not sounding. So I reverted back to stock because of those issues and now that I am getting the same problems on the stock software it must be a hardware fault.
So I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with the rom but the hardware instead somehow. I Don't want to but I may have to send my phone off.
Somebody else must have this problem as well? ??
i have the same problem too, just like for me the sonds do not come back after reboot. i made it to work somehow but after one more reboot the problem is here again and cant make it work again.

Hey Everyone,
So got my c6833 a couple days ago. Everything was fine until i updated it.
So here is the issue. When i get notifications or phone calls the audio comes out of my top ear piece instead of the bottom loud speaker.
And to point out i do not have any custom roms or apps. Stock everything.
Anyone else having this issue as well???
Yes I got this problem too.

I have this issue too. Reboot fixes it have not found another fix. Don't know what causes it either. Seems random.
Lots of problems after updating to Kit Kat

Same Same here...:crying::crying::crying:
Battery not charging .......:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Very Bad Battery Back up....:crying::crying::crying:
Sound from the earpice insted of Speaker.....:crying::crying::crying::crying:
PC Companion Freezes.....:crying::crying::crying::crying:
And sony says : Please take your phone to a repair center for evaluation....
This is my first Sony .... They should come up with a fix really soon.......
The sound problem do comes and goes away.....But very low sound , specially when phone is connected to the charger.....
there has been a fix from Z1 forum:
1. Open Settings->Sound->Volumes
2. Slide the second slider all the way to the right
3. While the Volume slider dialog still open and the sound preview still playing, retract the Notification Bar from top to bottom (as if you are going to check any notification/toggling a quick toggle button)
4. The Playback sound will go to the main speaker, after that, restart the phone
6. If the problem persist, please uninstall updates on chrome and Smart Connect, then restart again
7. After restarting, please reinstall Chrome and Smart Connect update again.
Same sound problems
I have the same sound problems since the KitKat update. Sound goes in and out/sound gets very low randomly. Actually, the sound comes from the ear piece speaker at times when it should come from the regular bottom loud speaker. I can't hear the phone ringing if the sound is coming from the ear piece speaker! I have missed lots of phone calls because of this. It is very frustrating. A reboot will fix it for a very short time. The same with disabling/uninstalling updates for Smart Connect & Chrome. The fix never lasts. I can't believe that there is no real fix for this.
Xperia Z Ultra C6802
Stock .681 firmware

I have a problem with the stock camera on the 6833 after Kitkat upgrade... Freezes up and doesn't take pics... Very frustrating... Anyone else experiencing this? Honestly this update has been far more trouble than its been worth... Battery drain has also been worse...

So after a long pain the ass glitch of audio not working right. The update came and it fixed that....... Now my camera doesnt respond aswell too. Also using camera in snapchat and instagram lags or just crashed.
I know how you feel man. Ive only had the phone for 2 weeks roughly now and kinda disappointed with it because of these issues, the couple day i had it before i updated it with kit kat it was awesome.
