Xperia Mini Pro (Sk17i) no sound while calling - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Good evening everyone. My sister got a Xperia Mini pro and has the following problem. When someone calls her she cant hear anything . She said that she can only hear sth. while the headphones are plugged in. Could it be that the soundboxes are defect ?

Stock rom and kernel and bootloader locked? Try repairing with sony pc companion. Or send it so service...

Its stock 4.0.4 rom and rooted kernel and unlocked boootloader. When i used Sony Update service for updating it says that i made modifiications and thats why i cant update.
I followed this tutorial exactly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568792

you can't use pcseus to update with unlocked bootloader, either relock it first or reflash stock rom

Flash gingerbead rom using flashtool and see what's happening and make sure call volume is up! Just try it

mihahn you mean with GB it will work again ?

maybe
Maybe you are pressing the PAUSE button with your cheek... happen to me all the time ._.

Hmmmm...no need to flash GB roms back into your phone or re-lock your bootloader and use SEUS to fix it....
Go to dailer and press *#*#7378423#*#*......
this will take you to XMP services menu....from here go to service tests....inside there you can test almost every hardware inside your phone including your sister problem which is earphone.....
remember if the test show that your earphone works well then the problem is not cause by the phone/ROMS....it is cause by problem from your services provider/carrier (her or the one who called her)......

If the thing with the service tests doesn't work maybe try to flash it and see what happens. Just do a nandroid backup if it doesn't change anything, but I would give it a shot...

try to re-install your ROM
@212th,
Have you tried to update or repair the software? Both can be done with PC Companion, www.sonyericsson.com/pccompanion.
If there's no new software available, just unplug the phone and click on the repair option instead. Remember to backup your data before doing this (contacts, messages, calendar etc.).

Hi all!
I'm stealing this thread a bit from rebooting..
It's like this.. I update my wife Live with walkman to the latest "4.0.2.A.0.62 (Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman)"
And after that was done, the phone just refuse to start. When you press the switch the led lamp just blink green a couple of time but the phone wont start!
Any know what to do? I see all over forums that many has this problem..
With regards.
Michael
You have to update your phone to newest firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62, which fixes the reboot issue. This was a software issue, which was fixed by Sony Ericsson.
Download Sony Ericsson Update Service(SEUS), and update via this program. This should fix the problem.
Copy-paste this link to download the Update Service
http://dl-www.sonyericsson.com/cws/download/1/110/61/1309763183/Update_Service_Setup-2.11.7.13.exe
Should also fix the problem of Bjerven, last poster. All instructions are inside the program.

I havent had any problems with my lww. It didnt even restart by itself automatically since the day i bought it. I must say im very satisfied with this powerful phone
Hey, have you tried flashing any other stock roms using flashtool. Try flashing different firmware versions and see if you can get your phone working again.

Hi, no I haven't try any custom rom's in the phone yet. Will try that as a last resort.

No, try stock roms first with different firmware versions before you try custom roms. Is your bootloader unlocked? Try custom roms only if your bootloader is unlocked.

I had never got this problem on my WT19i.
still restarting even after update to .62
Hello,
I am new here and bought the WT19i last march 2012. never had problem until recently (this october). the WT19i is now restarting like hell and cannot even be used. so i searched all over the net and found that i need to upgrade it to .62 (i was on .58 then) so to use the warranty i sent it and they upgraded the firmware to .62. but the problem still exist although you can now use it and the restarting was reduced, but it is still restarting. can anyone help?
it is on firmware .62
BB - 64
not rooted
locked bootloader (although it is unlockable)
can anyone help?
i am planning on installing 4.0.4 .587 but im worried about the performance, battery life and camera might struggle.
also is there really a difference in updating via PCC / SEUS and via flashtool using a stock .587 rom?
not rooted

I find the .587 more battery efficient than older one. Try it its worth of the upgrade
If the device still under warranty - do send for warranty :good:

i sent it already. previously it was on GB .58. they upgraded it to .62. they say they are using pc companion.
but problem still exists. it still restarts it was just minimized.
on .58 it restarts constantly and unuseable.
on .62 it restarts randomly when taking a picture, calling / receiving a call. sending/receiving SMS.
so now i really plan to upgrade to ICS .587 but am not sure if upgradeing via PC companion and via flashtool has the same effect?
or will i try to flash .62 again using flashtool?

phone operates automatically

i have xperia mini pro and
the problem i am facing is that i operates automatically
e.g i am listening to a song it automatically skips to the next

Is bootloader unlocked?
If it is locked connect to pc companion and try to repair with it. Otherwise you will have to send it to service, with locked bootloader it shouldn't be a problem to flash stock rom (unrooted) and send the device to service
yes bootloader is locked i have only rooted it and still using the stock rom which came with it

Then better unroot and send it to service. Cause (as you maybe know), flashing voids warranty and if you have still the stock rom better send it to service, best solution if it is (nearly) unmodified!
no it is not under warranty

You can do one of 2 things:
First:I get a priest and do an exorcism XD or... Second: in PCC or SUS use the repair option.
If any of the above works then we can star thinking about touch screen problems :S

[HELP] Touchscreen not working-SOLUTION FOUND!!

I recently flashed a CM9 based rom on my Xperia Sola,but after flashing its touchscreen stopped working,don't know why?I tried flashing .54 ftf via flashtool,it installed perfectly but it didn't make touchscreen respond.Then i tried it repairing through SUS but to no avail.Does anybody here know what would've gone wrong because i haven't flashed any custom kernel on it(yep locked bootloader) and i don't think that a rom can damage hardware(i know 'cause i have been porting CM9 based roms on my sola and they worked perfectly without any flaw).Is it the calibration problem or something?Don't know what should i do now.....

Yes the different device ftf may cause touchscreen fault due to driver mismatching/wrong kernel,but i was using Sola's ftf so that is ruled out.Although you are right that something different is corrupting the screen 'cause Xperia Mini had the same problem that was related to some rom flashing.
Or may be,the flashtool doesn't format all the partitions of the phone and there are some hardware files still lurking somewhere in the one of the partition thats causing the problem,but its just my guess.
I thought that only wrong kernel can cause hardware failure,didn't knew that a simple rom flash can do this,so lesson learnt:silly:

Try the method given above...i.e install gingerbread firmware via flashtool,switch on your phone...run it for sometime,the touchscreen should work at this point.If yes,you can reflash stock ICS on your phone.Thats it.You can download GB firmware for Go from HERE.
Hope this helps.

By 'touchscreen keeps black' you mean that there is no display,that there may be some hardware fault,You should take it to the sevice center.

Does the touchscreen fault occured after flashing a rom/mod or after a physical damage?
If it is related to some physical damage,the solution won't work and you have to send it to service center.

[Q] Sony sk17i mini pro bootloop. Advice please....

Hello everyone,
I have joined here hoping to get some advice, so i will be as complete with my situation as i can.
So, i rooted my phone, installed busybox, root explorer and CWM. No problems so far.
Read up on rom installations and attempted my first one. Cannot remember the rom at the moment but followed instructions as in "back up", wipe cache etc....
Now the phone is in bootloop, whereby it switches on, goes to sony erricson screen, blue light flashes and then goes blank. I cannot enter CWM, i cannot switch off until i remove battery.
I have tried both pc companion repair and seus repair but both say no software for phone(pc companion) and newest software installed(seus).
I have tried booting into safe mode the old fashioned way, but no go and finally....i have shouted obscenities at my phone but that doesn't work either.:silly:
any suggestions, or should i assume that it is bricked and send off for repair if possible?
Thank you.

Lagging when incoming call.

I'm facing a major problem that when someone call me, usually the phone will ring.
But what happening is when i receive a incoming call, it will hang and no ring, just vibrate but the screen is still working..
So i just answer the phone as usual but now is the problem.
As the result that we need to wait for a few second, and now only my phone ring.
So now i have to answer the phone once more time to make the ringtone stop as normal answering the phone which the connection is already establish.
Does anyone else facing the same problem
Or somebody know how to fix this problem
Sorry for my poor grammar:silly:

You mind giving some more details on your device, eg. which one is it, what firmware version installed, root, BL locked or not.

Could be some software you install maybe.
Original kernel? On some custom kernels I had the phone ring but the phone only comes up a few seconds later, don't have this problem with stock kernel. Ans I cancel vibrate on ring so maybe its related to that too.

Interesting, your signature says you are on CM 10.2
i just change it for testing.
will change back if not stable.
If you flash stock again do it with SUS or PCC, see if you get better results.
