Has anyone been having issues with Google Voice Search since updating it from the Play store?? I thought it was initially due to a MOD that I had put on, but even after flashing the phone and updating Google Search from a clean install (stock, no root), the problem still remains. Voice Search appears to be broken in everything that uses it, even Google Translate, it just crashes whenever I press the voice key. Running the latest firmware 10.1.A.1.434.
It works fine when I uninstall the update from within the Apps list, but it means I lose the widget, which I find handy. Any help much appreciated as I just can't put my finger on it and not read of anyone else having this issue. Thanks.
Im on UK .434 and just tested it by asking it the time, worked perfectly
I also have similar problems.
It works fine initially but then will suddenly stop working. I press to voice search and it goes straigh to a message like "sorry I didn't catch that" and hitting retry doesn't work.
If i then clear data for google search it works for a short time again then breaks.
Working fine with the update uninstalled. Also read of a few others with the same problem.

Weird, also on UK .434. It's not a great show stopper, as I can get round it by uninstalling the update, but it's just bugging me, like an itch that I can't scratch! :laugh:

This is still an issue. Has anyone come across a fix for this yet?

Hasn't worked for months for me, thought ut was just my phone or chappy network provider. Doesn't work on wifi either though.

I had this issue on fw 434, 253 and 307. I updated to 4.2.2 last week end and google search is now working.
So the good news is that when 4.2.2 will be officially available, the bug will be most probably fixed
Same problem here on 307.
Worked the other day for a bit then stopped again???

1) My phone has a problem where i find that it has got no data connection despite having data enabled. During this time i cant receive calls, texts and data connection.
2) Also I have another issue where it shows i have no signal but i have connection (See attached image).
Note: WiFi was turned on but not connected to router. Picture clearly shows i was connected online on steam. I could also browse on chrome etc.
Any ideas what's wrong? is it firmware or a defect in my XT?
Edit: Im on stock firmware. 3 branding.
Have you got the correct APN added and selected?
Maybe your just losing signal?

Think I have some signal problems too. Sometimes I have 0 lines but the service is there. I'm on Orange too ( Romania).
I'm on last firmware found on sonymobile.com. I hope it's something firmware/software related.
I had the same issue with my ARC S but touch wood havent had this issue with my Xperia T after a month of use.

For me it happens more on the .195 software then the .303
Ill try dig out more info, maybe I or soneone can solve it.

I had the problem before updating to newest software, then I upgraded and for the first day after it was ten times worse, but after a few restarts it appears to have gone away. Touch wood, it hasn't done it for a few days now...

the problem is not the hardware you connect to the wifi and data connection that primarily have something blocking spam, viruses, etc. Format the internal memory and SD card backups take the both of them from the link above and then download the firmware update installation settings, make backups of your data and try to connect to the wifi waiting for the outcome of

Last night I updated to Euro v20a and sadly I am unable to make my sixaxis controller app to work on it, I am having following 2 issues:
1. "Sixaxis controller checker" giving error like - Could not start driver. Check that the driver has been given permission to run by the superuser app.
2. Also everytime after opening this app my bluetooth stops to work? I have tried to share file but it always fails then I have to restart the phone to share anything via bluetooth.
In v10e I had no problem with this app except that everytime after using it my Wifi gets closed then I had to restart phone but now after upgrade to 20a its not working at all.
My phone is rooted and all other app seems to work fine.
Anyone facing similar issue? Please share?

I understand that some ROMS do not include some of the bluetooth protocols that this app needs. Cyanogenmod does include these by default (and it seems the current LG ROMs do as well). A version of CM for our phone should be coming out soon after the update comes out, or perhaps LG has added this to the latest 20A version.
AW: Issue using Sixaxis controller app
You should always keep in mind that it's just a leak, nothing official and I just think most of the issues we have now will be gone at the official release...
And if not, some Custom ROM's like CM will solve this issue, as it's already said above this post...
...sent with my LG Optimus 4X HD...
Thanks guys!
I already rolled back to ICS, I know JB is still in testing phase and its far from perfect though interface seems so much better.
I was having 1 issue even in ICS that everytime after using Sixaxis controller app my "Wifi" stops to work and to get it back to work I had to restart my phone infact this issue was the reason I switched to JB where I was not even able to use it at all :crying:
Anyway I am back to ICS and I dont mind restarting the phone at least its working.

Have emailed the issue to developer? After all we have paid for the app so we can request for fix also it will only help them to improve there app.
I have emailed but still no fix. Please email them.
I have USB/BT app but again there is no way to pair my BT PS3 controller without USB connection which is not possible in our device.
This worked for me!!
had the same problem... so i thought maybe with an earlier version it might work...
try with 0.5.7 that's the one that worked for me!!
Do you think there will be a new version which fix 20A compatibility ?

new versions came out a few days ago 0.6.3 and 0.6.4 supposed to resolve some compatibility issues. I already tried them both but still the same problem so i'm still using 0.5.7 in V20a.
not working for me either

i have tried your suggestion of installing an older version, starting with 0.5.7 as stated, and after having no luck any older version i could find/download.
this app is still not working on my 4x V20a hopefully they will hear our pleas (i have also contacted them to let them know of the compatibility issue) and update the app with compatibility. but if someone manages to sort this out before they do... PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
strange thing is that the compatibility checker still works for me (registering my button presses after connecting, etc...)
fingers crossed + thanx in advance for any help.

I just upgraded to v20b Europe Open, and it broke SixAxis.
I'd love to be able to use SixAxis 0.5.7, but don't have a backup of it. I am a legitimate user of the app - I bought it full price from the Play Store. Any advice on where I can get a legit copy of 0.5.7 from?
So after a long wait and having updated my boss's SGS4 to the sweet chocolaty kitkat, I came across an official CM 11 nightly for our beloved cappy, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557481) I tried it and for a nightly it running exceptionally except for one thing that sent me back to SlimBean, I can not get whatsapp to connect by any means. Everything else is working beautifully but this D: it even downloaded from the playstore just fine (as opposed to all the errors said to be caused by ART) I tried all the lib fixes I found that said it got whatsapp working again but non of them did the job. Any one that has got it to work?
Try to check your APN settings. It worked for me.

The APN actually was cleared but that wasn't the problem as I was trying to connect with wifi, however the problem was fix on the nightly right after that n.n been working great with ART the only problem I seem to be having now is the occasional deep sleep which the phone wont wake up from without a reboot. Not really sure what's causing it.:silly:
You can always try a different governor/scheduler setup to fix the wake problem.

I "upgraded" to KitKat through PC Companion and can't get any sound from the earpiece. I tried the service tests and still nothing. I tried installing KitKat again, this time using an ftf on flashtool and wiping everything; still no earpiece sound. I then flashed another rom (Carbon), and the sound is fine there so it shouldn't be a hardware issue. Does anyone know what the cause could be? Better yet, how can it be fixed?
I gave up on KK for now and just went back to stock 4.2.2 where everything works for me... Would it possibly work right if I update OTA to KK?
I also have the same problem...
Hi guys,
Mine is working correctly after 4.4.2. But I installed it with full wipe and flash pre root, not PCC...

Hi, this is an unsolved bug of the latest stock rom updates. I found a solution:
1. go to Settings --> Apps --> all --> sound enhancements ---> clear data and force stop
2. clear data and force stop Walkman or other music app.
3. restart your cell phone.
But this is not a final solution. The sound bug "comes back" after some days. So, if it appears again you have got to do the same steps.
excuse me if i don't speak english well, I just speak spanish.

I installed SoundAbout. This App told me that my cell phone detects earphones and bluetooth device, but I didn't connect anything.
So, I thought there was a bug in smart connect app, and i was right. I cleared its data. Later, smart connect detected a "phantom" earphones.
It's annoying to make everytime the steps that I posted you, or configuring SoundAbout. I think I'll go back to stock 4.2.2 (the better stock rom for me)

I do not have any problem with this Soundabout really helped me this time
you can use the pro version...
complete all recommendations with bluetooth voice once...!!!!
The steps Claudio provided only seemed to work for a matter of minutes, but now I have been using the phone problem "free" for over 24 hours with SoundAbout installed. So when will we get a REAL fix from Sony? It seems like it should be an easy fix for them since it's just something in the software detecting a phantom headset connected. Should I just forget about that and buy a pro license for this app. Maybe Sony will reimburse me for it, haha
Thank you both for the input!
Well, my SoundAbout trial ended and the problem is back. I'm wondering if there is something in the android script or whatever that would "fix" this before ponying up for the Pro version of SoundAbout. Sucks to have to pay to fix Sony's problem

have you tried HF button widget?
A friend with an xperia ZR just had this issue also, so i was looking for an alternative to SoundAbout and came across this app.
Thanks for the tip. Right now, I'm frustrated with 4.3 and above, so I went back to 4.2.2. I had another sound problem on KK too; when using my bluetooth headset, if the back of the phone got a little pressure (even from me bending down with the phone in my pants pocket), the bluetooth would disconnect. I would then have to tap or press on the back to get it to reconnect. I was thinking it could be a hardware issue, but I don't have the problem at all on 4.2.2
Hi Guys I just got my phone in today. Been messing around with it and everything seems to work great expect the weather doesn't seem to update. I'm running on T-mobile, so maybe that's the issue? I've tried resetting the catch but that didn't seem to do anything. I know the GPS is working since I'm able to see my correct location with google maps. Any help with how to fix this issue would be greatly appropriated.
I had the same problem, likewise on T-Mo. What I did was start maps and activate the GPS. All was well after that.
Hmm still no luck here, Thanks for the suggestion though . Its good to know it's working for some people. Tried turning it off and back on . I've Restarting the phone and tried turning off the Weather app. Nothing seems to work .Whats odd is that the google maps app still sees my location even if I turn my GPS off.
Xiaomi have been having problems with the weather sync server the past few days, there's quite a few posts and bug reports about it over on the MIUI forums. I've had the issue intermittently over the past few days too, it's working fine today so far!
Weather can´t sync?
Same here , using China rom /Globerom/En.miui rom. Hope it is a server problem or maybe Global Warming.

Mine never works even after opening maps and using GPS elsewhere. No biggy, just disabled the built-in weather anyways.

I'm not sure if there is any other files needed as the person only linked the Weather.apk. I believe he linked the weekly updated version of the apk.
I was in the same boat and then all of a sudden it started working. Now it stays working. I'm thankful it works now.
