headset symbol on toolbar - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

the headset symbol on my x1i stays on my toolbar even though i had disconnected my headset and it stays in headset mode and will not allow me to hear anything unless i have my headset plugged in.

Use search......................................... That has already been discussed 300 times.

I had the same problem, just send it to sony ericsson for repair and they will fix it with a new audio jack atleast they did for me.

SE Service useless
Yepp, I had the same. Sent it to SE Service. Got it back after 5 weeks with the remark that the phone had been opened by unauthorized personell????
I never tried to open it but just try to argue with the idiots at SE!
Had to pay 40 € for the "service" (they did nothing) and the phone/jack is still not working.
Buying an HTC now!

call speaker not working

hi was talking on the phone and all of a sudden i cant hear the other person.
However if i put the call on loud speaker i can hear the person on the phone.
So i tried changing the roms from tonys t build to pac rom, that didnt work so nvflashed the phone with progmaq nvflash and mic still aint working.
Unless someone can resolve my issue through a software change, am i able to repair this speaker? and if so roughly a cost and where (if in england) would be helpful.
Or is the phone best to be scraped or given to the kids to play with?
have you tried a headset??
the one that came with the phone....

Good idea mate
Just tried it and the sound works through headset so its 100% the top speaker has stopped working
Massive shame as with Tony's ROM the phones great
Looks like I will throw the phone away and just find a new one... Any suggestions?
Don't want s4 as I will break it in seconds build quality is crap.
Maybe a HTC one or Sony experia z?

Xperia Z power button stopped working.

Hello, I have some big problem with my Xperia Z since yesterday:
The power button stopped working. It doesn't do anything. I can't lock the screen or unlock it. I did not drop the device or something, it just happened.
Sometimes when I press volume up, it acts like the power button and asks if I want to shutdown etc. Also I had the problem that my screen was upside down yesterday. I could not get it good and even changing the launcher did not help. Really strange, as if my sensor was completely going nuts.
Anyway, I am backing up right now, and I will try a factory reset. But this is just strange. I am running 4.2.2.
Anyone an idea what is going on?
Did you recently drop your z in to the water with the flaps open or something?

I recently had it in the shower, but with the flaps closed.
Does it look like water damage?
I've recently had the same problem.
Also took in the shower, but because the backglass was lifted slightly from the case because of the overheating problem, water came inside and messed everything up.
Phone is now being repaired. And they said it is water damage.

Just explain to them that, the flaps were closed but still water got in to the phone.
I got the same button failure when water went in during shower. Got a replacement from Sony.
I have sent it for repair. Not to the default repair center in the Netherlands but to another company which is specialized in repairs too. Cleaning the device costs 20 Euro. There is a chance other components will be broken too after opening/cleaning, but they will try their best.
I have chosen this option instead of returning to the shop/Sony. That because the devices in the Netherlands are sent to a company called Dynafix. Although they have 'fix' in their name their reputation is that they do not fix phones. They sent you big bills for unfixed phones. Mine has waterdamage and colored stickers anyway, so I already knew for 99% chance that I will have the phone returned unrepaired and have to pay a lot of money just for them to see the colored stickers. Or the chance that they will repair it but that it can cost more than 300 euro (they say they swap a lot of components and charge you a lot)...
I will update when I have my Xperia Z back.

Good luck. Yes I understand. Service center folks are far from being considerate, atleast here in India. They lack knowledge and it's hard to reason with them.
Hello,
After submerging the phone under water it seems that the power button is pressed all the time.
Did anyone have this issue? Did the button start to work after a few hours?
I will try to dry it up....
It seems that all the new phones have issues. (Just switched from HTC One)

Update:
They have 'repaired' my Xperia Z. They swapped the mainboard. It did cost €235...
But I haven't been able to use my device anymore. When they gave my device back I noticed the following things:
- proximity sensor is not working
- notification led is not working anymore
- light sensor is not working anymore
(all those functions worked before I brought the device to them)
I went back to the store and told them about these problems. They said: for 35 euros we might be to fix this.
They tried but where not able to fix. I have not paid these 35 euros.
When I came home I accepted my loss of these sensors and I started installing my device and apps.
But there are even more problems!
- At a random time my device switches off, even if battery is full;
- Sometimes I can boot;
- Sometimes it even doesn't boot... Only wipe with Flashtool or through recovery can get the device booting again.
So I have paid an extra €235 and I can still throw it in the bin....
I think I am going to contact Sony...

You should have contacted Sony in first hand. Now that the phone has been messed up by a third company, they can claim that the warranty is voided!

Describe how you were carrying your phone, pants pocket (front or back?) or top shirt pocket ?
Did you take it out and place it on a table somewhere and found it disappeared or did it disappear by pick pocket.
Try to think hard about this, if the same gang operates there, go back and hang out at that mall, chances are the same characters will be there again. Were you in a crowd at any time, with people close to you. waiting in a line with people really close. These are the places these guys can strike.
Had read how somebody lost his phone, picked out of his top shirt pocket, whilst waiting for a food order to arrive. So there is a crowd of people with hands going up and over your shoulder, gentle pushing & shoving. This is a great way to pull a phone out especially if you happen to be under 5 foot 10. It just takes a tap on the opposite shoulder to distract and the crook has lifted your phone already
For this to work it matters where you are facing, if you are looking away from your top shirt or pant pocket then its easy otherwise it won't work. These guys know this and pick their marks carefully.

They won't track it using the IMEI, but they can easily block the IMEI so it'll be a useless brick, and the thieves won't be able to use it on an Indian network (and possibly other foreign networks)

Meh! I miss the good old nokia days... Where whatever you do(flash new firmware, factory reset, reformat) the security code just persists and won't let you use the phone until you key it in.

good questions, why is op ignoring this post...
plz help me
+Nikhilmendu how did your friend change his imei on his xperia L because I lost my imei on my Xperia l.Plz help nikhil
These apps, like android device manager etc are almost useless (useful only if the thief is a rookie) coz they will be desynced as soon as the email id is removed from mobile (via flash or any other way)
Regarding imei, try contacting all the network providers, i dont know if it will be easy task to do considering there are many providers plus you may need a strong source or reference to convince them, but when any mobile is connected to a network(and things like sms or call are sent from that mobile), its imei is sent to the database of the network to keep record...

[Q] Weird sound given off by Vibrator thru Speaker

Hello All,
My Z1 has recently begun to give off a sort of feedback when it vibrates (via the speakers).
I've ran diagnostic tests on my phone and all tests seem to come back positive and error-free.
However, when I run the Vibration test, sometimes the vibrator works perfectly fine (for about two runs), and then it vibrates with the negative "ZzzzzZzzZ" sound.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue with their Z1? Perhaps someone else (if anyone is experiencing it as well) can further elaborate on the issue. Would really like to get this issue fixed without having to send it back to Sony :crying:
I have the same problem with my Z1 (6903). There's a weird buzzing sound from the speaker right after the vibrator activate. Would love to be able to fix this without sending to Sony as well.

Ohhh that sounds tooooo far from your location. Try repair your phone via SUS or PCC. But first take full backup. Hope this can solve your issue. Though chances are very less.

I'm also having the squeaky vibration problem...
Hi, I'm also having the squeaky vibration problem. My phone is about 6 months old and I've been having this noisy vibration squeak for at lease 6 weeks now. I'm running slimkit evo 8.1 on a unlocked bootloader. Before I try to get it fixed by Sony, do I need to reset back to stock and lock my bootloader?
Could anyone give me some pointer to what I could say to get the phone exchanged for a brand new one? I can't be without a phone for 2-3 weeks (estimated service time by resale store).
I have a 5 months old z1, and ive had this issue since the first month i bought it....i guess its a weak point, which is pity for a flag**** phone...

Hi macooz,
Sorry for the late reply. If you are sending it back to Sony, you should always revert back to Stock, as custom firmwares void your warranty.
You could simply tell them that your Vibration Motor is not functioning properly (giving off a squeaky noise instead of an actual vibration) and you would like for it to be either repaired / replaced or have your entire phone exchanged for a new one.

I agree with you. Issue is that because the phone is encased in gorilla glass, it makes it a bit difficult to change any parts on your own. Disassembly videos are available on YouTube, but who wants to take the risk of breaking their phone's casing and then have to replace additional parts?

Unfortunately, I agree with Soka on this one. I have had the replacement Vibrator for months now, but a little reluctant to open my device as it requires heating and having to purchase new adhesives and so on. I am getting those items in the very near future though, so I'm going to go ahead and do it!
My best piece of advice would be to purchase a replacement back (in case you crack / break your original one while removing it) and replacement adhesives before actually performing the DIY Fix.
Hi there Im facing this problem too, I open a new thread but then @soka pointed me to this one, I record a video from the sound
they had already replace the vibrator and the main board, but the issue still continue, here is the thread I open:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/help/problem-sound-vibrator-t2922957
Hope to get fixed or replaced soon
Well, finally fixed my vibrator problem. I opened the back of my phone using a Hot Air Gun and pry tools, then replaced the vibrator module. Unfortunately, this seems to be the only valid solution.

Broke my Xperia 1 ii Screen and Suggestions for Repair?

So I dropped my Xperia 1 ii yesterday at work and the screen cracked. Ironically my tempered glass I ordered came in today from Amazon. Is there anywhere I can go to repair my screen or buy a screen replacement?
Also has anyone else new their screen on their Xperia 1 ii? If so, where and how did you replace it? Does Sony repair these phones if I send it to them? Any idea on pricing etc? I really don't wanna have wasted $1,200. Someone please help me!

Did they charge you? Was it in US Sony center?
Yeah definitely in the US and they charged me $280 to fix it because I had no insurance on the phone.

I believe so, I did a request online and they gave me a number
I did see anywhere that I can request online. Did you chat with an agent?
I meant "didn't see"
I will try to call them tomorrow. Thanks for your help.
did you guys get yours fixed? if yes can you help me get mine fixed too.
I bought it from amazon and used it for a week and then I used another brand charger I had to charge it and it was fine until it ran out of charge and turned off now it's stuck on the sony logo screen when I try to turn it on. I tried the 812-920-4185 and it keeps going to voice mail so left a voice mail and emailed them too but I still haven't gotten a reply. the phone was used for only a week or two.

do you still have original charger ?
what happens when charge it while off
fully charge it and hold the power button and volume up (or down) same time then release when logo appears, it should open the recovery menu, clear cache x2 and reboot
if still not booting then connect to PC and do a reset repair using companion
using a 3rd party charger should make no difference unless it is faulty
if all else fails return it under warranty
there are plenty of forums that will help you resolve this problem including Sony support forum
