Asking this for a friend of mine, I don't have this phone.
My friend, who posses an Xperia L, is having a weird problem. His call volume doesn't stick. It's pretty self explanatory, still I am saying, he makes a call at full earpiece volume, but then next time when he calls someone (or receives a call) that set volume doesn't stick reverts to half volume or something like that.
He's rooted as far as I know. Is this a common problem? If so, is there any fix?
Thanks in advance.
Which rom?
Stock or custom
Stock mate. There is no modification whatsoever. If I am not wrong he is very new to Android.

Hello people!
Well, this is the story: I had the 4.22 stock firmware on my Xperia Tipo. When someone called me, the ringtone sounded normally for the first 2 seconds, but then... the volume of the ringtone decreased drastically, and also the sound quality of the ringtone decreased too! It sounded like an *.AMR recording...
So, I searched fot the 4.27 firmware, I thought that would resolve the question, but NOPE!! Nothing. The ingtone stills sounding like an old recording after two seconds of ringing!
So, I was wondering if we could share comments about this. Someone else had or has this kind of problem? Or someone has solved the problem?
I have to say that I tried turning off Xloud, but that doesn't works. And I have no sound MODs on the firmware.
Let's share some answers about this problem! :highfive:
Hi,
Somebody posted in sony forum that he got a solution by switching the network. Initially I thought what a joke. Then I tried to change network mode to GSM from wcdma(preffered)/gsm. Ohhh yes after changing the netwok to GSM ringtone is ok now. This is definately a sofware bug. Yup those who preferred wcdma/gsm will have problem.

:good: Wow man! Never thought of trying that! Well, thanks for the reply, but sadly I sold mi tipo last month. I needed money to replace the broken display for my new phone... I still have some screenshots of that Xperia somewhere in my PC, sometimes I miss it.. Was a great phone!!
But anyway this could help someone who still has the phone! :fingers-crossed: Thanks for the response!
Hello,
When in a call, sometimes the other end cannot listen to me, but I am able to listen to them.
Terminating the call and re-calling "fixes" this.
Is there something I can do?
Is that a known bug or sth?
Thank you for your time!
@pspuser007 What ROM are you on? What mods are you using?
@NSDCars5 Sorry, forgot to mention this. It's completely stock.

Repair by updating firmware or re-flashing the ROM with Sony's official tools?
(Sorry, haven't worked with a Sony device before)

yes....
note;- E will factory reset if you choose repair option
if there is a update, then do it
If on stock ROM, I suggest you go hit up a shop or something that helps people with phone problems. Something might be loose in your phone.. May be a SIM Card problem, who knows..

dont mess if its stock, tk 2 service center instead.
Similar problem over here
I have similar problem.
When I call someone or if someone calls me after random period of time that other side can't hear me, and I can hear then normally and sometimes voice sounds like digitalized signal and then I know they can't hear me. Only solution so far is that I blow in cell phone (where the mic would be) and after that they can hear me normally again until problem reapears after another random period of time.
Since it is under warranty I took it to the service and what they did is factory reset and that's it. I have to mention that I sent it 5 times so far to service and every single time they couldn't find the problem. 5th time I gave my cell phone to Telenor salesman to use it (because I bought it in Telenor shop) and even she experienced problem after 3-4 min of talking.
After few days they replaced entire motherboard of my cell phone hopping that this will solve the problem because they still couldn't find the exact problem and all worked well. Until two days ago when it all came back.
I don't have any other apps than Viber, all other apps are stock.
I have never messed with ROMs or any other part of cell phone hardware nor software. All is stock since phone is 6 months old.
It's hard to believe that SIM would be a problem since I got brand new SIM when I bought the phone.
My only suspect so far is my SD card. It's very old.
So for the guy in previous post... Try and take it to the service shop and see what they tell you.
As for me I'm asking all vise developers and members of this forum to help me fix my problem. Any advice would be helpful.
Hello fellow z3'ers, so I picked up a 2nd hand z3. He was the original owner. He also sent it back to sony because of a previous problem which was it wasn't connecting to a network. So he got a replacement. Which I have now.
The vibrate does not work with any notifications or phone calls or texting.
I'm not rooted. On the latest 5.1.1 build 23.4.A.1.232
The good part is that he said he would handle the warranty exchange for me.
But I would like to know if anyone has had this problem or know how to fix it. Because I don't want to send it in but I will of I have to. So yea.
I've factory resetted already. Don't know what else besides that.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Were you ever able to solve this problem?
I have the same problem on my Xperia Z3 International version (D6603).
I believe it is a hardware problem.
Definitely a Hardware Problem.
its a hardware issue, vibrate on mine went flaky after about 6 months of owning it
Hi there everyone. i need some help with a used nexus 4 that i recently purchased.
The mic does not work when i use the speaker phone in phone calls only.
i can make voice recordings in whatsaap, and other functions using the speaker mic works.
But when i try to use the speaker phone in a phone call, the other person cannot hear me at all, its as if i pressed 'mute' on the mic.
i searched the net everywhere i could think of, but only found people with the opposite problem, where the mic only worksin speaker mode for them, but not for regular calls, which is the opposite of my issue..
also another strange thing, when i plug in an external headset/mic, the whole phone becomes like one big mic, and any way i touch the phone, sounds like crumpling paper extremely loudly.....
does anyone know of a solid fix for this issue?
thnks!!!!

well i never own nexus... what i can suggest just install minimal adb from xda... And then download last known official factory images from google or http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4 here... You can ask anybod here in general section.... People are willing to help just try to talk...
i was more like looking and hoping for someone who actually owned a nexus 4 and know about this specific issue and how to solve it......
it might save me hours of trying different things that may or may not work.
thnks though if i dont get any other replies ill just start by trying your advice.
Anyone know waht is causing the volume level to go WAY down after I place, or receive a phone call. I love the phone very much but this is driving me crazy! I'm on T-Mobile which is working fine. I have to use the Digits app at home to make calls. But no mater if I use Digits or not, if I make or receive a call the loudness of anything on the phone basically goes away. System sounds, YouTube, Iheart radio.... Anything that uses the speakers looses all volume. I have to reboot to get it back. Pretty annoying
I am facing the same problem. It just started to happen this week.
Clearly it's boring! if your device is rooted with magisk try viper4android it's magic, believe me !
Im having a similar problem and started to notice it few days ago, mainly because I am 85% of the time using the phone on vibration only.
I don't know exactly what OP means with "goes away", if this means that the volume is low (ringing or playing music) but the controls are still to the top, then yes I'm facing it too, but, what is really strange is that for me, just the top speaker have sound, while the bottom speaker is really low.
I managed to figure out that if I cover the top speaker with my finger without "pressure" or trying to squash it, the bottom speaker start "working" again. Im lost with this situation.
Sounds like a messed up mixer math or possibly audio mod that is messing it up

Could be a botched firmware. Be my guess. Iv flashed many roms and official firmware and never had this issue. Have you tried flash tool or the new flasher?

No, I never flash this phone before, just the automatic updates. All is stock.
Ahhh then one of the updates got messed. Sony must of messed something up. Flashed an older, firmware, different region firmware or hope for a patch from aony
No one else with this problem?
this just happened to me but after listening to spotify any way to fix this?
