Hi there!
I received a new Xperia E3.
Yesterday I was listen to some music with the Walkman app and with my Sony headphones ( sony.pt/electronics/auscultadores-banda-cabeca/mdr-zx300 ), when suddenly it stops playing the music for a short period of time (like 10 seconds). But I know that the music doesn't pause because when the music back, it doesn't back where it stops playing.
For exemple, imagine the music stops playing at 2:34, and it doesn't come back during 10 seconds. When it come back, instead of come back at 2:34, it come back at 2:44...
I don't if you can understand my problem, but it is really annoying.
PLEASE HELP ME!

did you update the google play services? try uninstalling its updates.
If the problem persist: disable smart connect.
If you have enabled STAMINA MODE remember to add WALKMAN to "Apps activate in standby"
I have a similar problem, but with a D2203 and with Google Play Music - the music stops for 10-15 seconds and returns where it stopped playing.
Tried many combinations in the power management menu, tried disabling smart connect, tried playing music only from the internal memory/streaming, tried flashing another firmware, tried clearing the data of Google play music, tried changing the SD card. Nothing works. And to top it all I have an unlockable bootloader so I'm the mercy of the Sony update schedule.
Any ideas?

try uninstalling google play updates
Tried uninstalling Google PLay services updates. So far so good, no more interruptions - though once i got one loong interruption, so long that i unplugged the headphones and plug them back in to get the sound back.
The annoying thing now is that I get error messages that some google apps want a newer version of google play services - i had to install an app that automatically dismisses those

I have latest google play services and still not have this problem.
It is happening due to unknown issues.

Well, I guess I spoke too soon. I got another interruption. But at least now they are less frequent with the downgraded Google Play Services.

I have this problem when i got this phone new after some updates it solved. But while copying files/installing apps i have this problem. So the cause of problem is due to slow sdcard read speed. Try rooting and boosting sdcard speed.

Update your Walkman app via OTA using the Update center app (around 14 Mb). Latest walkman version is material design based (8.5.A.2.10)

I hope we get closer to solve the problem. An sorry for my bad english.
I'm having issues with my z3 and I'm fairly sure it must be a hardware issue now.
I get corrupted playback in various video enabled apps (see attached screenshots)
The issue occurs in Youtube, Facebook, Sony Movies app etc
I have tried everything from full wipes, factory flashes, stock apps without updates, fully updated via play and xperia update etc etc. The error persists.
Have you got the same z3 6603 on Three Branded firmware? Can you 100% verify that your device does not have this problem on stock firmware with all updates applied?
Hello I have got Sony xperia z3 fully rooted on lolipop build 23.2.A.0.278 but the video don't seem to work playing back everything works great it still records videos. I also noticed video unlimited is missing when I try to install it in play store it says my device is not compatible very strange if u ask me I tried installing apk but won't install it seems to be the video issue is connected in some way is there anyway to fix this
Try reset to factory settings.
I've had my unlocked Sony Xperia Z5 for about a month now, and I'm quite happy with it. I decided to root it after I found out the bootloader was unlockable, and that was mostly just so I could run a handful of apps that need it like f.lux or AdAway. I was able to root without my phone having to factory reset or anything, too; I didn't have to sign in with my Google account or anything again. I've also had zero problems with the supposed DRM on the phone, and the audio features all seem to work just fine. I am running Marshmallow with otherwise no problems as well.
However, one thing continues to elude me, and I've yet to find a single answer to it for several weeks. When I use the Music app, I can bring out the sidebar and scroll down to a setting that says "Podcast". I originally tried it out a few months ago on an Xperia C4 at a local store on display, and I was able to search up podcasts I normally listen to. When I got my hands on my Z5, I wanted to use that feature and add some podcasts in there. That way, I could have the music app handle podcasts instead of me having to use a separate app.
Now here's where my problem comes in. Whenever I open up the podcast option, the same thing always happens. Every single time. I'll click "Podcast" on the sidebar in the Music app, I'll see the "No items" screen telling me to tap the Plus icon on the top-right corner to add a podcast, I tap the Plus icon, and I'm immediately greeted with "No network connection. Make sure your device is connected to a network." Clicking retry does nothing. It's like the app just doesn't seem to think I'm ever connected when my connection works fine on just about any other app on my phone.
I've yet to find a solution on my own. Searching online turns up nothing, as if the problem is only happening to me or is too obscure. I've tried so many fixes on my own. Tried clearing the data on the Music app, tried clearing the data and following with a reboot, tried connecting to different networks, tried toggling my WiFi and LTE, tried just about everything I can think of. I'm stumped.
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong at this point. I'm on rooted Marshmallow with an E6603 model Xperia Z5. Any suggestions on what to do from here, or am I stuck with a broken feature on the Music app? Granted I could live without this feature, but I would very much like to consolidate my podcasts and music into a single app.
Unfortunately, the podcasts won't work properly without root too. I just went back to test this, the issue that made me stop using it is still there: while scrolling the podcasts list by category, the list of items would occasionally skip very fast 2 or 3 pages below or above. I'm using podcasts in GPM now. That, too is a bit underdeveloped right now, hopefully Google will improve on it.

I have the same problem with "No network connection" on my Sony Z5 compact on Marshmallow 6.0.1 but it was the same on 6.0 and 5.1.1 so I assume it's Sony's music app fault. Anyone found a solution yet?

Try the app - "Genus beat" for music as well as podcasts
I find the native music player and podcast rather bad to be honest. I much prefer third party app combinations such as Onyx and Pocketcasts
Hi all,
Recently purchased an Xperia XZ second hand which has a couple issues that I think are related and software based.
-no sound through speakers
-no sound though headphone jack
-no sound being recorded through mic
-inability to record videos (error message stating recording or recording related function may be in use by another app)
I received the phone factory reset on Nougat then updated to Oreo and factory reset the phone again. Each time the problems still persisted so I know its not any third party applications as there weren't any downloaded. Also, I've tried turning off Google voice recognition from any screen and it was already off anyway.
This definitely seems like a software fault so I'd really like to be able to solve it.
All help is greatly appreciated!

OK, that means that it is locked. However, it could have been unlocked and relocked without restoring the TA. That could be the cause of the camera problems, but it should not be the cause of the other problems.

Yes, try this. You should use the 'software repair' option in the update section to force a clean install of the latest firmware.

Been busy so I haven't gotten round to trying anything as yet - Just been walking around with the XZ and my Z3...
What does the software repair actually do? Just wondering because I had already done a clean install of the latest firmware. I flashed it with UK firmware to get the fingerprint scanner working and it has since received the March OTA update so it's all up to date. To be clear though, the same problems were present on both the Nougat USA firmware as well as the Flashed Oreo UK firmware.
It's been a couple months now, been busy with school.
I tried the xperia companion repair and no luck. The repair wiped the OS and reinstalled the latest version (I guess that is how it repairs the phone), I set it back up with my google account etc. All the problems are still present.
I know this is not a third party app because the problem persists even when factory reset.
I know it's not firmware related because the problem persists on Android 7 and 8 US versions as well as 8 UK version (installed for fingerprint reader).
Just a reminder of current symptoms:
No sound through the internal speakerphones
No sound through the auxiliary 3.5mm jack
When attempting to play a song from the sony music app it says "cannot play song"
When on facebook it says some sort of error occurs when trying to play a video with sound
Any other videos played from the phones album or online (youtube etc) normally play but with no sound
I cannot record video as the device says "Cannot record. Recording or a recording-related function may be in use by another application".
When the phone receives a call through facebook messenger the call fails as soon as I hit answer
ALSO..... when going through the Sony Xperia diagnostics - If I click to test the speakers, I hear no sound. If I click to test the microphone, the app becomes unresponsive and freezes till I exit.
However, I can play music via bluetooth and have been doing so for the past couple weeks with no problem whatsoever. Notification sounds come through the bluetooth device (wireless speaker or car speakers) with no problem too.
It's been a while now so I really need to sort it out before I just sell up and do something else.
But I'm going on holiday in about two weeks so, without time to get another phone and whatnot, it's looking like I'll just have to carry my old Xperia Z3 with me for backup........

Hmm so now it's working?
small update with my XZs, it fixed itself after a few months, idk what happened lol.
Just last week though it broke again. It started when I was charging it, the phone began emitting a weird static sound.
For some reason youtube videos don't play as well. They will load but will not play even when pressing the play button. It's stuck with the buffering icon thingy.
