I've tried:
reset
clear audio+
other settings
factory reset
what i can do please help
it fix update or is hardware problem?
I love this tablet and i hope we fix this problem

What I have read on android-hilfe.de it is a hardware problem and does not happen on all devices.
Consensus was to swap the device.
There you will even find a recording that exemplifies the problem. Not nice ...
I am glad I do not have this problem.

Try flashing

I wish you that you do not happen

I can not answer that.
Some people had problems with SONY service. Others got a replacement with the same fault. The happier ones seemed to opt for a refund.
BTW What ROM version do you have?
Latest available today is 28.0.A.7.24
It might be worth a try (see anfalanl's post above) to flash the latest version.

My Z4 has exactly the same problem,
I was so disappointed by the quality ... (compare to my Z2, where the sound was good) .... I just thought the loudspeakers were bad ....
It is indeed an horrible white noise ... It is even louder than the music or the video, when the sound is really low...
Thank you for posting your problem, I know I'm not the only one ....

Contact CZC.cz when you have the Device buying form it.
Downgrade Firmware not needet. The Problem not the Firmware. The Device is defective.
Some Sony Z4 Tab have this Bug.
The Dealer have 30 Days to Repair OR exchange the Device.
If not (Time longer) you can cancel the Buying and Dealer must give Money Back.

tablet with price 735 dollars (in CZE 18000)
this is soo much for these fu.king sounds
i go back to my slow nexus 7 2012
sorry for word f. and f.

But are we sure, this white noise we hear is a defect? All the z4 are maybe just like that? And we are picky ....
A guy posted in a sony forum a .mp3 where this is exactly what I hear: first post in the page 7:
https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-8482-Z4-Tablet/Bad-quality-sound-with-the-speakers/td-p/1004009/page/7
Does someone has a tablet where he cannot hear it, especially when the sound is really low ?

I have such a tablet (SGP712 Wifi). I am on a newer firmware 28.0.A.7.24 (OK right now on AOSP) and I bet the OP is on 28.0.A.6.2
I suggested he should do an upgrade of the firmware but I am not his video guy ...
The "solution" he found maybe not the best but at least he lost no money.

IMHO the tablet DOES HAVE a high noise floor (inherent in design?).
Coupled with that, some tablets seem to have additional "crackling" when playing sound (mine does not).

i am from india i purchased asus transformer prime from Taiwan seller via online eBay website

Ok, that's bad. Don't think there is any other way to test that. So just give it back to store, if it is possible or send it to Asus.

not really, this guy knows the prime isnt out yet, none of us have it yet wants help as if we know what we are doing with the prime? for all we know the buttom sequence for APX mode could be completely differnt along with a new differnt bootloader.
thats like getting a 2013 model pre production car early and then taking it to the mechanic saying Fix it when they have never seen it before.

actually, the prime has been out, just not in the states, and while his formatting could use some work, in no way did i get the tone of him 1. showing off he had the prime first, and 2. demanding a solution to his problem.
far be it for someone to come to a forum for help.
The karma part is that we have tons of micro HDMI cables and no tablets.
he has a tablet and no micro HDMI cables.

Thats not "Kharma" exactly, more anti-simbiotic relationship. Two entities, mutually unhelful to each other.
As far as the Prime, it does not sound good. Apart from the exttremely slim possibility that it is in APX mode, it just sounds line a dead display. That SUCKS! How would you like it after the long wait for your Prime, to get a DOA unit? Talk about an emotional roller coaster. I would ne PISSED if I had to send it back, to retailer OR to Asus, and I would be getting the seller to cross ship one ASAP.

I wouldn't be surprised if the battery is at zero charge and the charger is malfunctioning the SAME way the power brick for the original Transformer did. I would pop the brick in for 45 minutes in the freezer then try charging it.

AFAIK, most of them have the first batch, i.e. 12W08~12W10, rev AAAB.
I don't think that knowing the batch or week where it comes from would be of any help since Sony hasnt given any clear cut-off or official statement on when or what batch we need to find to have a defect-free screen.

Sony hasn't directly provided any info.
But there are leaked repair center docs indicating it is hardware related and how to determine the problem
It's been posted here before.

Yes this is the problem because Sony hasnt provided us with any clear info. Its very clear that its a hardware issue and its also easy to determine if it has it or not. But what i am after is to know on what batch is it safe to buy the Xperia S. I already bought one and sold it because i cannot claim warranty because it was a grey import. I would want to buy again but i want to make sure that it does not have that problem anymore since its really a hassle to exchange it when the problem occurrs. I am located in the Philippines and excahnges here are really a hassle and most Sony reps here are ignorant of the problem.

w16 means week 16 and would also mean that its produced later than w13 thereby chances of having the yellow tint is lesser provided that sony really did fix the problem.

Do i need to waste my time searching for it if someone has a direct link of it??? If you are referring to the Yellow tint thread, it has more than 50 pages so do i have to read every page?

White areas around the edge of screen?? Will that be the faulty "Yellow Thing"?

White areas around the edge of screen?? Will that be the faulty "Yellow Thing"?
I have noticed today that my Sony Xperia S when it the battery level is low (almost 10%) the screen is has white liens along the inner edges of the screen (uneven lines with fainter color).
Now can anyone tell me is it the same problem that you talked about and needs to be replaced by the agent? And will the agent will replace just the screen or the full set?

You are RIGHT!!!
Yes, the photo you posted here is exactly the issue that ppls are discussing about.
Its Yellow Tint Issue...
Me too...
About the replacement? I'm waiting for the reply from sony service center,
they told me that they will replace my display only, but not the full set of phone. (SAD)
btw, your photo were taken during March, but you just post it now? Hehe
They told me I have to wait for 2 more months, early July they will have new replacement screens, tint-free

Hi all I have the same issue with OP here. Just want to ask, do I need a warranty card or something to get the free fix, or do I just need to show them the yellow tint?
I got my phone from a carrier and I didn't find any warranty document in the box. Plus, my yellow tint only show up occasionally.
Please advise thanks.

As per my post in the main screen thread, if you bought it locally bring it back to the shop! I'm 99% sure that Australia will have similar consumer law to the british isles where responsibility is with the retailer. Go to them and tell them "its not fit for purpose" and insist they repair or replace it.
Here actually, I'm bored so:
Summary
A consumer has the right to a remedy if goods or services do not meet a
consumer guarantee.
The consumer guarantees apply to both major (serious) and minor problems.
The type of remedy, and who must provide it, will depend on the problem and
which consumer guarantee was not met.
Gift recipients have the same rights as a consumer who has bought goods directly.
ACL reference: Division 1 of Part 5-4

What sort of problems do
the consumer guarantees
deal with?
Consumer guarantees apply to both
major and minor failures with goods
and services.
What is a major failure?
A major failure with goods is when:
> a reasonable consumer would not
have bought the goods if they had
known about the problem. For
example, no reasonable consumer
would buy a washing machine if
they knew the motor was going to
burn out after three months

Have a read, if the staff in store see you know your rights they'll be less likely to give you the run around.
I had the same thing on my Xperia S for a day or 2, and then it disappeared...?
(im stuck with a dead pixel though)
I experienced that yellow teint too, but the problem isn't always visible. I think I will take it to the shop where I bought it when I have time.
Does anyone know if Sony has fixed this problem? I contacted a seller on eBay and they said that they have received new stock last week and they assume that it does not have this problem.
Can someone please confirm if the new batches are yellow-tint free?
Has anyone from the UK sent theirs back yet?
I took mine back to the Carphone Warehouse who told me they couldn't replace it, only send it back for repair. Seeing someone post on the previous page saying there won't be new screens until July, I'm apprehensive about sending it back.

Different screen manufacturer?

Hello.
I bought my P9000 a while ago and today, my friend bought it, too. We both have same custom ROMs on them, and I tried to compare them with max brightness. His phone has much more vivid colors and is brighter, too. The mira vision settings are the same. What could this be?

Maybe the colour settings?
Where? I only thought the MiraVision plays the role (which was set the same)... I even clean flashed the ROM, but no change.
Sorry I don't really know.maybe you could exchange it
Anyone got any ideas? The problem still persists... Unfortunately, I cannot exchange it.
could you provide the [email protected] i want to see if i have the problem
On the pictures I can clearly see 2 differences: camera and display border. The left phone has a slightly thinner border.
To me it seems like the phones are different variants. There is the "P9000" and the "P9000 lite" which has a slightly bigger border, no fingerprint, etc.
Check here if you want to see all the differences: http://www.gizchina.com/2016/03/03/elephone-run-differences-p9000l-p9000-lite/
If the phones are both the genuine P9000 and not the lite variant I'd like to know which phone was purchased at which date, because I eventually want a second P9000 and don't want to have crippled version of it!
I bought a new screen. I got this message from the seller:
"Hi, Friend,
nice day.
just kindly remider for you.
there are two factory produce the original new lcd screen for Elephone P9000,
1. reference number: 13756-FPC-A-A284-
2. reference number: TFT5K1856FPC-A1-E
we not sure which reference number send for your order due to we have both above two from ELEPHONE.
if the screen shows no image when you install but back light up, do not worry, it is not the screen problems. we got the date from ELEPHONE COMPANY to make it works great.
the mobile will NOT have any risk to lost any date for personel.
so if you have above problems, just contact us and leave your email, we will send 2 emails to help you make it works great. one for documents, and one for steps how to do.
if it is no problems, you can ignore this message."

Thanks. That must be it, then. Too bad, that they differ so much in quality. Kind of disappointed, to be honest. But okay, cannot complain much over a 200€ phone, though. For this price range, it's great.

On the pictures I can clearly see 2 differences: camera and display border. The left phone has a slightly thinner border.
To me it seems like the phones are different variants. There is the "P9000" and the "P9000 lite" which has a slightly bigger border, no fingerprint, etc.
Check here if you want to see all the differences: http://www.gizchina.com/2016/03/03/elephone-run-differences-p9000l-p9000-lite/
If the phones are both the genuine P9000 and not the lite variant I'd like to know which phone was purchased at which date, because I eventually want a second P9000 and don't want to have crippled version of it!

Sorry for the late reply. They were bought about 2 months apart, the dimmer one was bought earlier. And they are from the same dealer on ebay.
Which LCD Model has been used
Service code *#*#33#*#* Single Test - RF test lcm : ?????
This is interesting, thank you for postin OP.
My only 2 issues with this phone are 1) The max brightness in sunlight of the screen and 2) The internal speaker ,, Is there a Google App that can read the LCD manufacturer information? I tried AIDA64 and Android HW Info but they couldn't say it. I bought my P9000 in the first release month.

Hey, sorry for late reply... Did the test, and it is 13752 model. I googled that and somebody at german forum said it has low saturation and brightess, too....
EDIT: LOL! I see that you posted that there, haha. Yeah, this is probably a ****ty panel. I will ask my friend to do the same.
EDIT 2: He has a different model... 71067. Can we do something about this? I mean, how can a company gives a ****ty pannel to some, and a nice one to others?
Contacted elephone. They wrote:
"Hello,
Thanks for you information,
I have confirmed for you, may because they are from different batch.
Best regards,
Teresa"
After that, silence. I asked them how can they give such lower quality to some, and much better to others.

Hello.
I bought my P9000 a while ago and today, my friend bought it, too. We both have same custom ROMs on them, and I tried to compare them with max brightness. His phone has much more vivid colors and is brighter, too. The mira vision settings are the same. What could this be?

Huawei Cheating with some components on the P10

This is all over the news in China apparently. Sounds like huawei substituted worse components into P10s which is really sad and makes me angry as I was just about to order one.
https://www.gizmochina.com/2017/04/...p10-storage-benchmark-results-shows-they-did/
Just saw that, and WOW.
BTW the link listed in that article as "Huawei forum" is not the official forum.
The official forum is trying really hard deleting threads, and in some forums "UFS" and "emmc" are now sensitive words.
Yes, they did.
Please check the different performance in YouTube.

Do you mean one of those side by side comparisons, where they open and closes apps?

Not only open close apps but actual load times and such...things that make a difference in real life. I'm pretty sure there will be a big difference between eMMC5.1 and UFS2.1 in real life.

I got a P10+ 6+64G Greenery in China and it was eMMC. I used it for 1 day and returned it because it's not as smooth as my Honor V8 and it lags occasionally when opening apps and scrolling the screen.
All complaining posts in Huawei's official forum were removed. They only show the good reviews there. It's 21st century but a Chinese giant is still doing such things

Good thing you could return it

I returned it successfully because I didn't mention anything about the different internal flash problem Some returns were rejected if they mentioned this problem in the reasons of return.
It's good that the problem exposes to the public as the consumer should know it before they decide whether they should buy it.
Lucky you, I have on of the P10 with DDR3 and how knows if it has also eMMC5.1 instead of UFS2.1, and the problem is that I bought it more than a month ago here in Spain. I guess I will have to argue with the shop in order to have it replaced by a new P10 that MAYBE it has the same problem.
Man, I switched from Xiaomi in order to avoid several things (besides ROMs) like the quality of the manufacturing process (sudden death and things I've suffered in the last couple of years with several Xiaomi models) and now Huawei is even worse. I am very disappointed with Huawei, this is my first and maybe last Huawei phone.
At the end all manufacturers have their problems, Samsung with the Note model is an example. Maybe paying more than 800€ for an iPhone is worthless at the end...

Good luck! This is the first time that I know that eMMC is found in Europe. Maybe the source of your P10 is also from China? As you said, you bought it more than a month but it was only released just 1 month ago in China.
I understand that manufacturers always get the same component with different brands. The main point is that they have the same specification. But Huawei uses components with different specifications in the same model. That's really unacceptable. I am also very disappointed with Huawei as I used 2 Huawei phones (Honor 3C and Honor V8), which were good phones.
Well, according to some benchmarks I did, the memory controller seems to be UFS2.1 finally so there is no problem with mine!!
So I am relieve! But I would like to be able to check out the hardware components of my phone to be sure, who knows...

Looks like ufs 2.0
Not ufs 2.1 but its better than emmc 5
I have the same results and am more than happy with my p10
Should do a poll about how many user have eMMC, what region + model. I've been Huawei fans for long time but now I kind of feeling been cheated (placed order of the p10+ and not knowing what will I get). Now I am leaning towards cancelling the order before it shipped out.
So question is does international varient i.e L09 and L29 been effected by this scandal?
There are 3 things chinese fans was flaming about are:
1) no Olephobic coating
2) UFS, eMMC
3) LPDDR3, LPDDR4
