Hi
I have updated to stock xperia zl 4.4.2 from the Root and upgrade procedure given from the link below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2761662
However, after few days, I was not able to hear while picking the call. It worked only with headphone
Others can hear my voice when using speaker , however not through microphone.
I found that it worked only when inserting the headphone, I was able to hear.
Is there any fix for it still?

It happened to me once.Reason was that since i used some local headset quite sometime, some undesired metal contact had been made permanently. Thank god it started to work again propely the next day after i used sony approved headsets (after 4 or 5 pluggins and unpluggings).I suppose some metal contact which is supposed to be broken off once i remove the headset reminded pressed since i used wrong headset.

Help I have No sound (fixed)

I have got this weird problem with my Qtek 9090, I can’t hear a thing from the speaker except incoming calls??? And there’s no sound when I pick up and no one hear me on the other side unless I use the headset or the Bluetooth headset, everything works great then even playing music !??
I tried with few other rom, but no success! I even tried with WM5
Could this have anything with the headset plug? Cuse when the headset is plugged (in normal case) you can only hear incoming calls from the phone!
Remove your bluetooth profile(s), and do a soft reset.
I have the same problem after I used bluetooth.

dude, thanks for trying to help, but you should know better. flashing with a new rom erase everything including the the BT profile. I still think the problem is the headset jack.

This is telling me that you DID install the bluetooth again, and so you have a bluetooth profile, what is causing the no sound problem!
I have exactly the same problem as you.. When I remove the bluetooth profile all is working fine again.. that is.. untill I set it up again, and use it.. Than the SAME problem is back.
thank alot , but still got the problem even with the BT-profile removed, I have to use the wired headset to be able to hear anything
Problem Solved :lol: :lol: :lol:
I Opened the damn thing and took a look at the 2,5mm jack and guess what, it was broken ( I remember dropping the phone once for a week ago), I just removed it ( I don’t use the headset but I need the speaker), and everything is loud and clear now,
and with a Sprite Backup file I’m back now :twisted:
!!!?
I have such problem, but I think it really barbarian means of solving problem.
Is there any cleaner way?

I read in another post somewhere that there is a microswitch in/near the headphone jack that switches off the sound to the speaker. Apparently, if it sticks, you poke a paper clip in and twiddle it about and you'll free it.
no sound form jasjar
having same problem. poked around with paperclip and all that, but still no sound. dont need headphone jack because hoping to use latest a2dp hack form latest rom for jasjar to be able to use BT headset. will removing headphone jack affect using BT headphones? need external sound.
I also have a similar problem - when in phone mode, other side can hear me but i cannot hear them, if i plug a headset with microphone the other side hear me and i also have sound from other side.
if i unplug the headset, i cannot hear the other side but the other side can hear me.
are there microswitches inside the headset plug for both microphone and speaker (two microswitches) ?
thanks, yol.
just got my jasjar back after having cracked lcd and headphone jack replaced. sent to http://www.pocketpctechs.com out of california as suggested by very helpful user on this site. cost me around $20 dollars and took only a day to fix. works fine now!
My O2 XDA IIs is behaving rater unusally. For a while I've had the problem that many people have reported where I can hear nothing during a call but the other person can hear me. This could be remedied by a soft reset. However now, no amount of resets seem to fix the problem.
The baffling thing is though that the speaker hardware would appear to be working as MediaPlayer still plays music out of it and the phone still rings etc. However no sound what so ever comes through the 2.5mm socket now, from either a call or from MediaPlayer.
What on earth can I do to fix it?

Guys, are your problem similar to mine? My problem is that the speaker is not working even though playing mp3. I thought it was radio problem, so flashing new rom also doesnt help. It is really the headphone jack cause the problem? When i flash to new rom, the speaker works, but after the auto config, the speaker doesnt even sound.
Please advise me on this. Thank in advance

Sony Ericsson MW600

Has anybody tried and got the Sony Ericsson MW600 to work? I can listen to music and it is seen as a music headset but no calls? it will not connect as a hands-free phone-kit?
I tried to shuffle through all the blue-tooth and connections settings but I can not find any solution?
Any help is very appreciated.

Hello Robert_it.
I've bought it today before seeing your post.
It works as bluettoth headset with calls.As i can remember it shows two devices when you search for bluetooth.I choose the second and it works ok.The problem is how to set bluetooth on phone to be always on .
Hi nsourm,
Thanks for your reply.
This is my second SE Bluetooth I also had the prevoius non-OLED one and loved it.
I have paired up the audio with 2 phones and my Laptop and started up by pairing the second phone..
What I did not know is that you shuffle the Phone and the audio seperatly as I was not using the first on with 2 phones. So it was all down to finger trouble
To activate what audio you want long-hold the "play/pause" button and select (I knew that one) to shuffle the Phone, long-hold the "talk" button to select the phone you want.
This way you can hear music from any of the 3 devices and connect to any of the 2 phone's separately
I did just asume that I was connected to both phones at the same time??
Not a big problem, I still love this little player
The conclusion must be, as in most cases, if in doubt..... READ THE MANUAL!!!

Track names
Hello:
Does this headset show you the track names?.
Mine doesn't show them at all. Also, if someone calls me, it only shows the number, but not its name.

As far as I know this is a well known compatibility problem between Android and these headsets and I heard both the problems you describe are fixable. Have not found the time to google this yet though... if I find something I'll let you know.
Nevertheless this is a great headset with virtually no weaknesses other than its lack of water resistance.

Well, I bouught one from ebay but I still don't have the Atrix with me. I only expect I will be able to volume up and down, answer a phone call and change tracks.

But you're right, its a great headset ^^.
@joyo22
It does all of that, plus you have a fm radio. You can also fast forward or rewind.
Great buy.

It is an excellent accessory and works perfect with Atrix, I have it and do everything
1. identifies the incoming call
2. The FM radio works perfect
3. open and change the songs on the cell
4. autonomy is very good load
5. sound quality is good
6. the charger is the same cell so stay with 2 chargers.
Among others it is a good buy I recommend it

Mic volume issue after EU OTA

Hi all,
Quick question, has anyone experienced issues with the microphone while using Skype or Hangouts after the latest (last week's) OTA for Europe?
At first I thought it was bad design on a case I got, but the issue persists even without the case (and there actually is a hole in the plastic for the mic), tried Hangouts to make sure it wasn't just Skype, so I'm thinking it might have to do with the OTA update.
The mic wasn't doing wonders with capturing before, but it appears to be unusable for Skype now unless the tablet is held at the same distance as a phone.
On a relevant note, is anyone aware of any tools that could help adjusting mic gain or disabling the automatic gain control/ noise cancellation features?
ROM is stock LG, rooted.
Me too
Same here with the exact same setup.
I've tried alsamixer but this proves useless until you know witch setting is involved among hundreds of available mixers.
I wonder if an external bluetooh or USB microphone is not a better option.
EiZ
Same issue
I just recently got the G pad and I definitely have a problem with the mic. Is this happening on all the G pads or do you think is a hardware issue on my device?
I tried with Skype and Hangouts and my voice was barely audible on the other end. Just to make sure it was not my internet connection I tried with my old trusty Galaxy S2, no problems there so it is definitely a problem of the G Pad.
I have no screen, warming, yellow lines, light bleeding or any other issue. So, the device is perfect except for the mic, do you think it is worth to take it back to the shop to exchange it for a new one or this will not cure the mic problem?
Any luck tweaking the mic in software btw? Finally, has anybody tried to use a bluetooth headset and microphone with it, is it possible?
Thanks!
I am also having mic issues currently on sw ver v50010a.
it seems very quiet. update is downloading so will see how it compares.
I'm on software ver V50010b and I keep having issues with the microphone.
Don't know what to do... the rest of the tablet is perfect, so I'm afraid to exchange it just for this issue and get a new one with more problems.

ZL experts - I need help!!

Hey folks.
My wife has a locked ZL phone with the latest lollipop update on it. I recently wiped everything through the PC Repair Sony program before doing anything.
My problem consist that my ZL phone microphone is not working in calls, viber, facebook, you name it. It just simply doesn't work.
It only works through Video Message Recording. For example, if my wife sends me a video message through viber I can hear her very well.. I tried to mess around with it but I cannot find anything.
Thank you all!
It might sound like a software problem, but this is almost always hardware related. Either Viber also uses the secondary microphone, or it auto-increases gain on the primary microphone until it's audible.
You can test proper function of the primary mic by typing *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialer, or simply downloading xperia service menu app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thunderboltsoft.xperiaservicemenu&hl=en
If you confirmed the primary mic is not working, start cleaning it with a pin (bottom right). If it still not works you can try using some sort of air pump. Not sure if it's save to use a high pressure compressor..
most of the zl phone have the same issue...in my case primary mic is completely gone and now iam ordered a new mic piece for replacement. I think the video recorder is using secondary mic for recording...

if after the above service test your mic doesn't work, im afraid yours is dead. you have to get the mic replaced. mine died too after 2.5years. got it replaced for around 12-13USD (INR900).
Thanks for all the replies. I think it is dead. I am using earphones with mic. Such is the life of having a Sony phone. (Never again)

Mobile Phone Handset For Calls

Hi all!
I've been using some custom ROMs for about 3-4 months and experiencing them.
Unfortunately for me, after one I installed, I started to face an issue on mobile's own handset.
For example; I tried that and the handset worked well just after installing Project Elixir 1.7 (ProjectElixir_1.7_ginkgo-12.1-20220523-1049-OFFICIAL).
But after a day (maybe restart phone for a few times), I got same issue:
- When I get a call or call someone, handset gives the sound out of the speaker directly and microphone doesn't work (nobody can not hear me when I am talking).
Otherwise, with headsets with cable or wireless ones on Bluetooth, phone caller works well.
I need to add this note, too; this problem occurs on some other custom ROMs.
Do you know any advice or suggestion to be able to fix the issue ?
Thanks in advance !

If other earphones work fine then your earphone is damaged.
