Speaker got off during OTA update

Dear gurus,
I am using DHD version 2.3.3 (2.50.405.2), used Advanced hack toolkit with S-Off and rooted. Everything was working fine and I have tried several roms on it.
Yesterday I wanted to upgrade my version to 2.3.5 (3.12.405.1) through OTA update, I downloaded the zip through software update and applied , phone turned off but the updated failed somehow.
I then restarted my phone back and I was on my previous version, everything is running perfectly but I am unable to listen anything from rear speaker , when I put on ear phone I listen everything from it but not from my rear speaker.
When I start music and goto enhancement, it says speaker is out.
I have then tried 2 or 3 roms whether it is a rom fault or hardware problem, but the problem exists on each rom.
Can anyone faced this type of problem ever before?? Or anybody help how to fix this problem??

NFC problem

I Have Sony Xperia s , rooted , unlocked boot loader , running stock based ROM , NFC works great with NFC tags , but when i want to share a photo with any NFC device , they will say NFC service forced closed , and it doesn't work , how to repair it

I think my problem is serious. When I got the phone 2 months ago, I've flashed .45 stock FW and everything worked fine. Last week I needed to use the NFC but it wouldn't turn. For a second the box is ticked and then goes back off. Now, I've tried SEUS, nothing. Flashed with Fashtool same .45, still nothing. Could this be a hardware problem?

The latest fw is .55 not .45. I think that's the problem.

I know .55 is the latest, but when I flashed .45, everything worked fine. Why doesn't work now?

.55 was dedicated to NFC corrections, especially introduced paying via NFC (that's what one of polish operator said introducing .55). However if you hadn't opened your phone (I mean you didn't try to get battery) you shouldn't damage it..

The thing is I did get the battery out. The OS got jammed and I had to remove it. Still, I have replaced the NFC specific file in the system folder. What else to do?

[help]Connectivity issues(WiFi and Bluetooth)

Hello guys,
Recently I discovered that I can't turn on my WiFi anymore and just today my bluetooth stopped working too.Both of them were working when I bought the phone.All I have done to it is root it and flash a kernel,but I doubt that's the cause since the problems didn't occur immediately after doing those.
I tried a factory reset,but that didn't do any good.I attached some screenshots describing the issues.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Its your kernel or your wifi modules
Reflash your kernel or reflash your rom, one of them may fix the problem
Ask if you want please

bluetooth problem
my friend's stock (not rooted) phone wont turn on bluetooth..
it was working fine ever since it was bought.. and only 2 or 3 days since it started giving problems.
i tried wifi and gps and they worked fine
just the bluetooth, it tries to start, but fails..
any suggestions?
also, do sony phones have a diagnostic boot mode ? (im trying to prevent a hard reset here)
thank you..
xperia ion,
(stock 4.1.2)

No sound in calls, and it's driving me crazy.

Long story short, I started having this issue 2 days later the flashing of CyanogenMod 13 ROM, almost a month ago, maybe a little more. Searching on Google it appeared as a problem of the Cyano ROM, watching the amount of complains found on the web but, after flashing a stock-based ROM, the problem persisted. So I thought that maybe the earpiece speaker got damaged and orderer a new part on eBay. While waiting for the new part to replace, I decided to try to flash the latest stock firmware, trying to solve any kind of kernel related problems. Of course it didn't work. Finally the new part arrived and, after installing it, with a bit of disappointment on my face I realized it wasn't the earpiece speaker the problem: still no sound in calls.
Now, could the problem be the motherboard itself? The 3.5" jack, which belongs to the same module, works just fine. Any idea?

They have been installed on the phone automatically by flashing the latest stock rom available in my country.

First of all thank you very much for the answer, mate, unfortunately even by following the steps you listed the problem isn't gone. Any other tip?

I'm having the same prob 2. No sound on either sides of the call. The strange part is the sound returns intermittently

What do you exactly mean? Would you verify if the problem occurs only during calls? You can test the earpiece by downloading a specific app from the Play Store (e. g. Speaker Tester).
I've been playing around with the phone flashing modems, bootloaders, stock ROMs et cetera but nothing seems to solve the issue.

Hey guys! I have unlocked bootloader and twrp installed on my device. I was using resurrection remix os as my daily driver when suddenly after some updates the camera sometimes didn't work and i hard restarted my phone to fix it(remove the battery). So i flashed Genisys rom and somehow the problem still existed! To make sure i was gonna fix that today i flashed Full stock rom with the bootloader and the modems that are provided in a post in XDA. But the camera is not working for sure in my phone! Here is the thing..After removing the battery and pluggin it back then boot up the first time camera works, when i lock the device and unlock it then the camera resist to connect in whatever app i have tried
