[HELP]Google Dialer App 2.05.07_rc4 - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

I recently upgraded to Noughat on Sony xperia XZ and decided to sideload the google dialer (version 2.05.07 is the only version that works with non nexus/pixel phones)
However, i discovered that since installation, the speaker phone doesnt work properly. whenever i am using the phone on speaker, it reverts to normal and cuts out the speaker. if i press the speaker again, it will work for about a min of 2 and then revert. So i uninstalled but the issue persisted
To test, i have an old nexus 5 with MM and installed the app and had the issue. Uninstalling also didnt fix
Any thoughts on a fix other than factory reset?
P.S i never had the issue on both phones before i installed google dialer

Clear the cache and app data of the app maybe?

Google music reboots phone

It happens fairly often, any ideas?
DX 2.3.3
In retrospect it may have been equalizer app from market. Currently running cm7 with dsp manager, no reboot issues.

Mine doesn't reboot, but Music crashes every time I try to stream over 3g. Works great on wifi. Hope they get the bugs out, because I like the program.

I was having some issues at first. It was either gingerbread or equalizer. Works fine now with cyanogenmod.

I used to have that issue, but it disappeared after a few factory resets (not because of google music, other reasons). It happened only when I started playing music then locked the device, but not every time it rebooted. I did have that music Fx equalizer however.
Because one signature isn't enough.
I hate doing resets, although I'm using Titanium now, so it should be an easy restore. Maybe I'll try that this weekend. Was kind of hoping for a app update that would fix it.

I don't think a factory reset if necessary, just remove the equalizer app if you have it, but if it's not the problem try everything before factory reset even if you have titanium, a single app isn't worth it because if you just restore everything back it's likely the problem will still be there.
Because one signature isn't enough.
Factory resets didn't fix my issue, even tried only downloading that app to make sure it wasn't interference from another one. But somehow I managed to get it to work when I unchecked cache music and wifi only from on to off and vice versa. Now it streams on both wifi and 3g like it's suppose to. Must have been a glitch in there.
G music is a data hog. I'm twenty days into my billing cycle and I've used over seven gigs of data on 3g. That's the only thing I've used differently. Luckily I have unlimited data, truly unlimited according to a Verizon Rep.

speaker phone problem
I am now having the same problem. I can use the microphone for notes or other dictation, but it is inconsistent for the telephone speaker phone. I restarted the mate 7 and it worked for a short time and then stopped working. I recently encrypted the phone, but otherwise using the same apps except for adding WAZE.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it trying to route to BT instead?
What do you mean by BT?
Bluetooth.
The bluetooth was turned off so that wasn't the problem. Today, the speakerphone mic is working, at least for the moment. It is a bit frustrating. I emailed Huawei tech service, but in the past, there were not too helpful.

I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?

Unfortunately, no, I have not solved the problem. I find that if the speaker phone (microphone) is working, it may go off in mid-conversation. Yet, as someone else pointed out, the speaker phone (microphone) works perfectly with Whatsapp, dictation, and using it for other voice commands. It seems to be only related to telephone calls. The mate 7 is an MT7-L09, android 5.1.1. And, of course, Huawei doesn't even respond to customer service emails.
I finally received a message from Huawei tech service suggesting that it might be a bad sim card. However, it seems hard to believe that the microphone works well without the speakerphone and is intermittent while using the speakerphone. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Has anyone tried a factory reset to see if it solves the speaker phone mic problem. It might be worth a try. Thanks.
I have the same problem . How can I solve it ?! :/
I wish I knew. Obviously, there are quite a few people who have developed this problem, but there is no real help here or with Huawei. I asked before if anyone tried a factory reset, but there was no reply.
Just remove the ok google option and then remove the google now... it will work ok after. I had the same issue andtjis fixed it. Hope this helps

I tried doing what OscarBaia suggested, but it didn't work. However, I am not sure if I did it correctly. I never used google now. How did you remove the ok google option and google now? Please be specific. Thanks.
Use Titanium backup and root and remove The google now aplication...
Sent from my JAZZ using XDA-Developers mobile app
Thanks for the information, but I really don't want to root the phone. I've used Titanium Backup with another phone and it was great. I guess I will have to look for another solution.
Yes another solution, call Huawey and use warranty to replace phone

Very odd!!! Have you tried testing the display from the service menu? Maybe you have a HW issue.

Bluetooth settings crashing on OB12

Any fixes? It keeps crashing and reboot doesn't fix it.
Open "Beta" build. Expect bugs. Also there's a reason this build is pulled back by OnePlus. Downgrade to OB11. Everything seems fine to me on OB11.
No issues here on OB12

Same problem for me. It happens every time I update the ROM, beta or not, I have to do a clean install each time ...
Anyone has fix this Bluetooth issue in ob12?
So it's still not fixed in ob14
Has this issue just yesterday in OB14. Sudden freeze and reboot. After that Bluetooth settings crash, no lock screen and theming worked buggy. Took a backup and clean flashed. No problems so far
Hello,
I had the same crash with stable 9.04 approx one week after upgrading from 9.0.3.
Suddenly, entering bluetooth made settings app force close.
I couldn't find any solution and ended up to factory reset the phone...

This happens for me every two weeks... I don't know at all why it happens. I'm thinking it could be caused by the navbar gestures, SwiftKey, cf.lumen or maybe kinscreen. Do you use one of these?
I went back to 9.0.4 because of that and it still happens.

Sorry but i use none of these. In my case the rom starts to collapse itself after a few updates dirty flashed. Some system apps not showing on ocasional boots, some sudden soft reboots and then lockscreen not showing at all, theming bugs, and Bluetooth crash. I take backup using oneplus switch and titanium and fresh install open beta, restoring all doesnt take more than 20 minutes.
My bluetooth setting crash, i couldn't connect any new devices. so i searched for solution in this forum. im on OOS 9.0.4. just before i take the plunge wipe data clean install rom, i tried the following.
I first cleared Setting App cache and data, didn't work.
then i gone into recovery and cleared Dalvik cache, didn't work.
then i used Clean Master and cleared system cache, 3gb worth, and bluetooth setting worked again!
hope this helps someone in the future.
Hello guys, i just noticed that bluetooth settings crashing ,everything was working fine for me (as long as i remember), but yesterday i was trying to pair a BT controller and it happened. So let me explain, turning on and off bt affects nothing, but when it's on and you try to go to the settings by long tap on quick settings or by the settings it crashes. when it's off you can go to the settings but once you try to pair a new device it crashes, old paired devices pair when you turn on the BT so it happens only when you try to pair a new device.
I tried to go to the 9.0.6 but it was crashing there too, so i rolled back to OB19.
I'm rooted, magisk 19.2 and twrp and with stock or smurf kernel it crashes , so i ended up pairing the controller with a third party app.
I'm sure it was working before because i paired alot of devices. I tried some "fixes" like freezing the bttestmode or clearing the cache and data of the bluetooth but none of those fixed the issue. So did anyone find a solution.
Thank you
For everyone having BT crashes, try looking at your phone Bluetooth name and check if it's blank. Usually happens to me when fsync fails and I lose my ram data.

Microphone not working...

My Google Pixels microphone randomly died after some point in its lifespan, but happened recently. First i updated version to Android Q Beta 1 (and it was working all right on that version) but when i updated it to Android Q Beta 2 (microphone stopped working and whole UI experience was buggy, some apps not working, random restarts, etc...) but then i got it back on Android Pie, and it worked for few minutes into boot and died yet again... Then i installed custom ROM (Pixel Dust) with TWRP recovery and Root, but nothing of those helped, then i got it back on Android Pie via adb sideload OTA. That didn't help either... So i don't know is it the software problem (because it seems to work first few minutes after i boot it) or is it the hardware problem. I use my phone mostly for phone calls and now because microphone is dead, it lost its functionality... But speaker was working,earpiece and 3.5mm jack.. Any suggestions??
i'm having a similar problem at the moment. Since the April OTA update, phone calls stopped working. Even when using a BT headset. I tried reverting to Full Recovery Image from february, but that only helped a bit. Also, any other audio app was not able to use the speaker. With the Feb version, youtube and google music were back working, but phone calls are still not possible, causing the telephone app to freeze. I was thinking about installing some custom rom too, but that doesn't seem to do the trick. Did you try to wipe the cache in recovery?
Update
found three possible workarounds for people having the same issue, perhaps one of those helps. I'll go through them today evening.
You could try enabling the "Disable USB audio routing" in developer options and see if that works for you. It did work for me

Change your launcher, for example, on nova launcher, disallow permission to microphone for google app and never let him this permission, do not use google assistant.

Maybe is a kernel error..but definitely is not a hardware problem. maybe try changing kernels. o downgrading to 7.
since none of the above tricks worked in my case, i booted TWRP to clean the caches. Didn't bring any good result. So i flashed ElementalX Kernel and now i got some kind of a better result, even if it's still weird. Everything works now except incoming calls. I can actively call other persons, use whatsapp or facebook audio calls and all is good. Only if i receive calls, still mic is muted.
I will try everything from above, and hopefully something will actually work and get my Pixel back in life. I will get you updated guys.
Thanks for the support.

None of those helped so far, i'll try flashing some kernel then...
I discovered that when i try to record with my camera video, it says "Can't record audio. Another app is using the mic." Also when i try to record audio message on Messenger app, as soon as i click on microphone icon it says some error.
Update, my sound and video won't record, both on Youtube or Instagram or any kind of video audio playback.
Update
I flashed ElementalX kernel and same stuff happened, phone calls and microphone was working for first 30 minutes then it got back to old days, not working as usual. Now i think this is hardware problem

have you tried chaging vendor image, or getting a vendor image from a working pixel?
I installed lineageos 16 without gapps and is working good for hours until installed gapps.
