Always some bug with my Xperia Z2 - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have been playing with my xperia z2 for over a month now, i have 2 major issues.
1. When i am in facebook playing video, it will then show up a message saying "Sorry, but an unknown error occurred while trying to play this video"
i have tried clearing the cache or uninstall facebook. The best result is for those video that cannot be played in the beginning, it now can play but problem switched to another video
2. when talking on the phone, background noise is always higher than my voice no matter if i turned on the enhancement to reduce the background voice. It will get even worse if it is off.
any solutions to that?

I agree with you about facebook video playback. It really gets on my nerves!!! But also if u r using streaming videos on ur browser also. Same problem. I hope they fix this stupid problem.
Also proximity sensor bug. The phone sceen blackens during a call but u actually accidently click things while ur phone is on ur ears.
One lousy bug is the sound. The phone's sound volume is very loud but at sometimes all of a sudden it becomes muffled by itself and gets so low!
The one i hate most is a bug with messaging. Sometimes it doesn't becomes sooo delayed when u try opening a msg or even doesn't want to open at all.
Another one is the hotspot. Sometimes it doesn't want to be enabled. U have to restart the phone to enable it.
I have an htc one m8 and it's more stable concerning software, but i really love my Z2.
I hope they fix these bugs esp. video and msg bugs!!!

just replying to my search,
to prevent the video playback issue.
Just disable the xperia for facebook. then the problem is gone. I have not seen the issue again.
However, during the phone call, back ground noise is always louder than my voice still persist.

My issues are the soft key buttons on screen. Doesn't matter what I do the home button and the recent apps button lag horribly!

muffed sound issue here.
Been using an Handsfree for awhile, sadly i cannot talk normally on the phone as i get important work calls.

I havent been able ti use my camera since the start of times... I gave me "unfortunately, camera has stopped error", stupid thing is I'm in no shape to return this piece of junk, because I world in a jungle with EGDE internet, and I can't go back to civilized world for another month... I've tried a reset, factory reset, uninstall updates, flashing firmwares from other countries... so, I reached a conclusion, that Sony can't manufacture smartphone...

my friend had this camera issue before, he have done all the things you have done before.
the only option is to return the phone to Sony for repair, it takes less than 4 hours even on sunday (local agreement of repairing)
so it wasn't that bad...
Issue was he dropped the phone and the connection from camera to the board is broken(this is was sony said)

[Q] Skype video on S3?

I cannot get video to work on Skype on my S3. Video is enabled in Skype Settings but still no joy. Has anyone else got this problem or know how to fix it? I can't find any thread about this. This is a deal breaker for me. If Skype doesn't work I will reluctantly return the S3 during my 14-day trial period.
Thanks
Works fine here. Just tested video calling 3G and WiFi with no problems.
Finger trouble or firmware version?
Skype v2.8.0.920
Edit:
The other party (Recipient) must also have video enabled.
You could also lower the video quality and test.

works fine here as well.
Thanks for the replies. Still a mystery. I have the latest firmware and the other party definitely has video enabled. I switched to other devices and it worked fine. The front camera does work but there's no option to select when I make a Skype call (over WiFi). If the other party calls me I can see the options but it still doesn't work and returns to a black screen. Lower-res test done as well but no luck.
I just can't see what's preventing a video call. I can do this quite successfully from my tablet, old phone and desktop but not the S3. I have uninstalled and downloaded the software again but it still doesn't work. Grrrrr!
Try a video call on Gtalk to test. Obviously check video is enabled in its settings for both parties.
If working, try wipe data/cache in settings/applications/downloaded or all/Skype. You well need to setup Skype settings, login etc again.
If still no good, reinstall Skype
Sent from my GT-I9300T using xda premium
I did clear the cache. And one other thing: I can't close Skype. I have to use a Force Stop to quit the application. I've tried this several times and it always remains running unlike any other program I close (eg, swiping to the left from the running programs list). It doesn't show up in the task manager as a running program but the icon is still there on the top left of the phone. I wonder if some other process/application is interfering with it.
It's reassuring that Skype is working for others. I'm on O2 - could they have set up something to prevent Skype working? That's not my experience with other phones from O2 and I doubt that is the problem.
So did you try Gtalk (to confirm the problem is just with the Skype app) and also reinstall fresh from Google Play?..........

I haven't been able to find anyone to use gTalk with - everyone I seem to know has an iPhone/iPad!
Still no luck with Skype. I'm new to Android so not entirely confident about flashing Rom. I'll try to find out from Skype if there is an S3 issue.
Thanks everyone for suggestions so far

Thanks, I'll check them out.
I've got what seems to be a fairly simple problem with Skype, so I thought I'd post here because Skype users are likely to read it ! :
Outgoing voice-only calls seem to work OK, but when I answer an incoming call, the GS3 screen goes completely black (regardless as to whether the phone was by my face or not).
I tried pressing buttons etc, didn't seem to be able to get it back until the caller hung up.
On a plus note, the call quality was great, but I really do need to be able to hang up the call!
Am I missing something obvious?
According to my tests, Skype video works when I'm connected to WiFi but I was never able to do the same under 3G.
I'm on a high bandwidth connection..but the person on the other side keeps saying that the video quality is ****ty. I have the Video Qualty setting on 'High'. The recieving quality is just great. Its only the video sent from my end. Is it the same for everyone? or just me?

Maybe you're upload speed has something to do with it, also tinge of day and network congestion (mobile towers overloaded).
Check your upload speed with speed test app

The Best Walky Talky App

What is it? I tried Voxer and it turned out to be pure crap, I spoke it a pitch quiet room and my recording was nothing but static.
So I figured I'd ask here, what you use, we all know the DSM5 mic is an odd one though. Same can go for the speaker being stupidly place at the bottom near the softkeys instead of above as well. haha

Craig's Walky Talky!
ok, this does not use voip, no servers, no Internet required!
It has 2 modes
1st mode (default on run) it simply uses your wifi modem to relay your voice data, so everyone using the app on the same wifi network can hear each other!
2nd mode "enable ap" this turns your phone into a wifi router, once enabled on 1 device.. on the other android device click wifi and scan for the ap from the first device..
This mode allows you to talk out in the open anywhere anyplace using just 2 or more android devices just like a real walky talky!

lag in dialer and contacts app, a different kind

I have seen a lot of posts that says lag in dialer app - takes 4-5 seconds to load etc
In my s3 I have the same problem, but in addition to that when I try to access call logs of particular person from logs tab by touching records, it does not open when I turn off the phone, take the battery out for 4-5 seconds then I am able to access it, after a day or two the same problem shows up.
what to do? any permanent solution?
I am on rooted stock 4.0.4 ics
EDIT :
Sometimes even the call history doesn't gets saved.
please help guys sometimes i get important calls and i can't even see from which number did i got the missed call.
P.S. this only happens once in a while. But It is very frustrating, i cant even see the people who called me, miss calls or whom i call.

Thread moved to Q & A section, post in the relevant section next time.
I think the only solution is to MOD contacts app so that it can be kept in memory permanently so it can load faster.
I dont know about programming, is it possible to port AOSP contact in Samsung S3 with JB ROM?
Exdialer is the best replacement.

[Q] Facebook Messenger Crashing

Hi there, proud new owner here, a tiny bit dissapointed with washed out colours /Im coming from an unbeatable amoled screen of Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7/ and not being able to sync my Jawbone Up /did anyone manage to find a solution for that?/, but my main problem is facebook messenger crashing. Does that happen to any of you? I¨m C6833 14.2.A.0.290. THANKS!
Oh, I think it actually might be due to a microphone not working properly, I am on UK C6833 with the lates firmware update. Just run the device test and it is showing me that "microphone failed" every time, also attempted some recordings and there's no sound. Does anyone else have a problem with mic? Should I have it replaced?

AFAIK, the device test tests the hardware connection itself as well as drivers etc, so if it's failing I think it's a hardware issue. I'd get it fixed on warranty if I were you. Who's your network?

I'm on Three UK, phone from Ebay...tu du dun duuunnnn...But alas, I've found out now, that it is only the facebook messenger app that messes up the microphone. It goes disconnecte and won't come back up until the reboot only when I attempt a voice recording through facebook messenger. Tried older version of messenger too to no avail. Hmmmm, mindboggling.

Have you tried Skype? I mean, you could try it and see if it works there (do a test call), and if it does, it's clearly something with the messenger app and not the hardware.
And, this thread should be in the Q&A section and not general.

Facebook or more Apps problem with bootloader unlocked Sony Xperia Z Ultra (C6806)
After factory reset my beloved C6806 (Sony Xperia Z Ultra ) and unlocking the bootloader through the Sony official unlocking procedure, I found my Facebook, Gmail, SMS and more apps started failing to run. Especially Facebook app, it just worked once after fresh installation. After restarting the phone, the Facebook app was no longer work. The screen kept flashing several times and then exited. I was never able to make it work again.
The only way to reviving the Facebook app was through clearing data in the app (Settings>Apps>Facebook>Clear Data). However, It required login to Facebook again then worked until the phone restarting. The same symptom repeats again, again and again. I am so frustrated because the problem of instability then extended to more apps. I had also tried to install Messenger or old version of Facebook App but there was no luck at all to solve the problem. The phone started running unstable.
I originally planned to install a custom ROM and root the phone in order to resolve the problems. In that moment, I had an idea and guessed that the problems might be caused by the bootloader. The I use Flashtool and lock the bootloader.
Wow La .................. All the problems are solved and no more problem existed.
If you have the same problem with Sony smartphone and the phone is bootloader unlocked, please try to relock the bootloader again. It may solve most of your problems.
Additional note: Some people have mentioned the problem of Xperia For Facebook. This is the hint for me to think about the source of problem coming from the bootloader. Sony's default apps have a habit to check the bootloader status of the phone before running like FOTA Update. No more update is avail for those unlocked bootloader Xperia smartphones. So do not use Official ROMs if you want to unlock bootloader. (However, many apps will stop running with custom ROMs like bank apps or Google Pay.) Please install custom ROMs with unlocked bootloader Xperia smartphone. Do not keep using the Official Version ROMs because this will be your beginning of nightmare.

........calm down. You can't base your conclusion on that vague investigation.
Stock rom is so old and abandoned sony haven't added anything new to it like blocking facebook.
Yes some app developers are starting to block access to rooted devices is different ways.
There is no signs that facebook ie microsoft is blocking rooted devices yet.
But recently google is implementing only a simple block so you cant download the app from play store. But you can simply install the apk manually.
You should try something else first. Like flashing a stock rom ftf. Wiping the whole phone after the unlock including internal storage and sdcards. Even if unlocking wipes the phone.

Bugs when switching from phone-tablet and vice-versa

In this thread, you can complain about your own problems. Also, you can help other people so they stop griping. But really. Feel free to ask questions. Such as:
Does anybody else have issues when switching screens?
For example, on some launchers (occasionally even Asus', others including nova and apex) , the icon/sprites get smaller when undocking from the tablet.
Answer other people's questions if you know how.
Thanks,

idk where on xda i read that the whole dynamic display feature relies heavily on zen ui ( asus ui ) .. so without it it wont be as smooth as we expect it to be. Heres a huge bug ive noticed... art runtime wont work at all !
I tried ART and got into a bootloop. :sly:
Sent from my Nexus 5 using the XDA app
I've noticed that certain widgets when placed on the phone screen will cause a 20-25 second delay in launching tablet mode. I've also noticed that Asus launcher will display error messages and Android system error messages.

Could you remind me, what exactly is dynamic display? Is it just the tab?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using the XDA app
Dynamic display is in display settings that allows you to add apps to a list so the tablet can transition between phone and tablet mode without a popup message saying you need to restart the app. It's a compatibility list
Sent from my HTC0P3P7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Here's more information...
Sent from my HTC0P3P7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Are most of the issues about Dynamic Display concerning when switching from phone mode to tablet mode and vice a versa? If so, I do not understand the emphasis this has gotten. It is rare I need an app to stay open when switching, I think because as the unit is being switched I am also in transition. Usually this means closing out an app, then undocking the phone, putting it in my pocket, and off I go.The apps I may use during the transition, the call and text apps, do seem to transfer well. The pop-up menu can be disabled. Apps seem to display well in both the phone and tablet mode when not switching.
I realize some users could find this problematic but the issue seems a bit overblown. I would think my experience of use would be the rule rather than the exception.
Your thoughts.

I've had that same error multiple times on the phone screen when I remove it out of the tablet dock. In addition to that error
I have a certain procedure when inserting the phone into the tablet dock.
1 - I pull up the gallery and click on any picture
2 - with the picture in full screen I insert the phone in the tablet dock
3 - the picture shows itself in all its glory in the tablet and then i can hit home and end up on the tablet home screen
The KICKER I can't let the tablet screen time out or press the screen off button or else the tablet never comes back on....
I have to remove the phone from the dock and I get the android.ui error message on the screen.
I can't put the phone in with screen off, or device off or it will never display, very annoying and hopefully will be resolved by Asus.
Considering this is Asus's 5th or 6th gen of this device, you would tend to believe that they got the whole phone tablet dock errors
resolved. But I'm sure errors resurface when ever there is a new android os.
Has anyone else experience the same problems as me?
In any webpages in Chrome I get a crash when switching
Art issues here as well, i dont get a bootloop, mine just hangs on the boot logo. I left it for about 40 mins knowing the art runtime takes a while to switch over, but i finally got frustrated, had to factory reset from the recovery menu. Tried with fastboot enabled and disabled, no luck either way

Mine does the same thing where the tablet will freeze up and then won't turn back on after the error messages. Then I get an unresponsive black screen. This is my 2nd unit as I exchanged one already for the same issue and Both do the same thing. I Don't know if it is a software or hardware issue. Some apps and widgets apparently don't play nice with the the padfone station.

The KICKER I can't let the tablet screen time out or press the screen off button or else the tablet never comes back on....
I have to remove the phone from the dock and I get the android.ui error message on the screen.
I can't put the phone in with screen off, or device off or it will never display, very annoying and hopefully will be resolved by Asus.
Considering this is Asus's 5th or 6th gen of this device, you would tend to believe that they got the whole phone tablet dock errors
resolved. But I'm sure errors resurface when ever there is a new android os.
Has anyone else experience the same problems as me?

It appears that you both have some huge problems. Many of my issues were resolved when getting Padfone Switcher and Padfone Controller. They are both results under "padfone" the search bar in the play store. (Sorry for lack of links)
You can control which launcher for the phone and the tab. I chose Nova for phone, Asus/Apex for tablet.
Tell me if your issues are still occurring (post configuring the apps, of course)

I had downloaded it about 2 weeks ago when I got my 1st PadFone X before I exchanged it for another one.
