I have a clicking sound coming from inside the phone when rebooting, it clicks like 4-7 times then stopes. Any one else experiencing this?

Sorry, no, nothing like this at all ...
Yes. Same here. I got the clicks too.
I don't want to scare you, but that does not sound good at all.
Can you perhaps do this with the back open and see if you can hear where it coming from? A neat trick my car mechanic once taught me to find noises was was to use a hose-pipe held to your ear and moved around until the sound is clear. You may be able to do something similar with the phone, perhaps, or it may be obvious where it is coming from.
I shall buy a straw and try I'm not to worried about the clicking, more curious about what it could be. Like if I have different hw or something, if the click is from cpu/gpu.

I hear the tick when I reboot into Recovery. It comes from the camera.
tnx it helped
Hi everyone, i have noticed a strange sound when i shake my cell phone, in the back near de camera and i think where the cpu is located if i shake the phone something sounds, not a big problem but havent notice before. I want to ask u if this is normal? thx for your attention
Yes it seems so. Don't worry about it.

Maybe a little piece of rubber from the GPS antena...
I don't have any strange sound, and I shake it like hell...
The only thing that I saw that can get loose when I open my phone was that.
Or maybe its normal.
Seems u have an extra feature on ur phone. That's cool. Should be happy about it.

i've got it, too i can hear it the best if i 'knock'/'tap' (don't know the right word right now ) onto the top near the camera, which was my first thought (some kind of lense or sth )

THe vibration Device Is like A little motor With A too big case (badly explained) and That gets power And shakes wildly To make The phone vibrate. I Think its that
Almost every newer phone has that problem, some say its because of the autofocus on the camera, other say its the result of a too big external sd card slot...
Fact is, that it's no problem for the performance of a phone, but just a small cosmetic fault...
If you look in other threads of different devices, you will see many of these posts, so just don't think about it.
Sorry for my bad english

Hi,
I have my xperia sp from one week and i'm satisfact except the volume. It's too low in a call and also in my car bluetooth handsfree. Have you got some dissatisfaction? There are some hidden settings which I can use to solve it?
I came from HTC and I was sure that Sony have to be better in terms of sound and camera but I am a little bit disappoint. Overall pls help me with volume issues.

You can change settings for Headset, Phone Speaker and Bluetooth Device.
I'm not sure about the volume in a call. Maybe it won't get affected. Can't test it right now.
But the described things, like the speaker will get affected and there are some possibilities to
gain volume. Maybe there are some easier ways.
But one thing is for sure, your overall sound quality will rise if you use this driver.

dont blame Sony. Blame EU. Flash any ROM for a non-eu country.
I too had to bear with the low in call volume until I tried the repair function in PC companion. The volume has been excellent since!

Many years ago Sony was one of the first companies to comply with new EU limits on the output of headphone devices, designed to protect the user from over loud sounds. I believe it originated in France. With some makes of music player you could get around this by loading another region's firmware.
It's typical EU "nanny state" legislation. What it unfortunately doesn't take into account is a) not all haedphones have the same sensitivity and b) not all listening environments are equally quiet.
I can't say whether the SPs rather poor maximum headphone output stems from this or has another cause. What does annoy me, and the Sony is not alone in being like it, is how I only seem to have 3 or 4 useable levels all bunched at the top of the control, with large steps between them making fine control impossible, whilst the rest of the volume control seems to do sweet F.A....

prob is not headphone volume, it's low in call volume with the speaker. you simply can't listen to the party at other end in a noisy environment.
My SP is satysfing me fully, I haven't problem

I tried to repair firmware with PC companion and nothing changed...I have not seen any improvements. After that I put CWM on the phone and burn a non_EU Stock Rom ( I though from Russia)....other bad news...mu mobile data stop working even I put a new APN from Vodafone Romania. Also low volume in call on speaker was the same. The last I revert to a Vodafone stock ROM from Spain and I thing it's working a little bit better but not satisfactory.
I can't listen the other end in a noisy environment.

I'm sorry I'm just an ordinary user with no technical knowledge. I saw on Sony's support forum that they suggest repairing to resolve many issues so I thought I'd give it a try.
All I did was link up my phone and computer, run repair and follow on-screen instructions entirely. Once finished my phone's internal speaker becomes much louder.

I made this post to let everyone share his impression about the long waited android 4.3 To our beloved phones T/TX/V
share your thoughts =)
and Gratz lets w8 for our last hope the Kitkat =D
Update
after flashing the usa FTF i just used my mobile for 10mins and seriously i got a new mobile now! nicely done by Sony
Smooth and Graphic is eye blessing just gotta w8 till get rooted and get the smaller navigation bar cuz this one is kinda too big
i love the call animation too It`s a new phone now =) Gratz to everyone
Tx Owner
First we won't get kitkat and in March our 18 months are over and Sony has yet made it to get itself out of having to give us kitkat...
Now 4.3. I don't know I expected more. SP got the gloves mode for example and I don't know whether it is just the Vodafone version why aren't we getting an update center?
The cam looks good but lacks of functionality, for example the tap to focus and make picture is gone and the auto mode being chosen every time I open the app is not really optimal.
The lockscreen is a bit rudimentary but we all knew that before yes we got widgets but honestly what do they offer if I have to watch out not opening Walkman or when swiping left and right. Better optional app buttons and to have them on the lower screen half.
Then the Docomo status bar better than what we had before but definitely many steps behind other uis in that case.
Worst for me is that the buttons for navigation are almost third of the screen... Would it kill Sony to make that customizable?
My main parts I'm not yet updating and waiting for the modders to do their best
My Impression
It snappy ,looks nice ram usages is poor I don't know about battery life yet , sound quality seems to be enhanced :louder ,deeper bass, higher treble all round improvement P.S. for those who don't know first start up will be a tad laggy
Rep
It feels much faster than 4.1.2. I love the lockscreen and the design

Yep, and that for a completely stripped down version, with no auto-background update of Google Services, and other unneeded items.

I took the share your thoughts part as invitation to share my thoughts on both subjects mentioned.
And I advise you to just let people have their opinion and if I needed to release my frustration over that subject respect that too. Otherwise get out of the internet as you'll get offended every second website you visit.

Maybe no update centre is a hint that we will not get updated to kit kat?
Stamina mode and camera
- Stamina mode looks like its 2 versions back. It lacks of customization which is in SP and Z series. Besides the (inaccurate) timer there is nothing new. That mode was previously in 4.1.2 just now it looks better.
- Camera - first impression is that it makes better pictures in low light conditions but I cant find settings in menu for resolution and quality - itll be nice if someone tell me where it is.

I didn't know about this. I rely on tap to focus (as someone who knows absolutely nothing about taking a good picture)

I passionately hate the current Xperia lock screen. While I like using other lockscreens, sometimes the default lock screen over-rides it anyway, I think when memory is low. I know I can use a pin, pattern, etc, but I want to be able to look at my phone for a very few short seconds without all the fiddling. Worst Xperia lock screen yet. Even the X10 lock screen was better.

It doesn't?? Now that surprises me, considering the new walkman app is included in the feature list, and the new walkman app (at least for the SP) does have built in music unlimited :-/

You're most likely in Super auto mode... Got to switch to manual mode first and then enter the settings

Thanks! haven't noticed that
to me it seems a bit laggy compared to the .278 leaked version
i see a few bugs
First of all, what happened to the stock browser. is it android policy to pass to chrome in 4.3? I dont know about you, bt i dont feel any butter maybe the firmware still needs to get the hang of the device, vut for the moment it feels a bit laggy. Most important: What the hell happened to the volume bar?! i press the volume keys and ony a small grey rectengle appears, no indicator of volume level, i can hear the beeps increassing volume but i dont see it, and if you are in an app like RR3 it doesnt work! anybody had the same problem?

Hello,
is anyone of you having problem with the microphones?
i am, and apparently a lot of other people are complaining on sony official forums!
my phone is brand new,never felt from any height,but still people are telling me that they having really hard times understanding what i am telling them!!
they are reporting muffled voice, that comes and goes, sometimes turning robotic or with statics background.
not to mention the ****ing second microphones, that when is enabled make impossible for the other person to understand me at all!!
in your opinion can it be a software issue of maybe something realetd to a bad sealing??from what is possible to read on the internet, is not so uncommon to find phones damaged from water
Try to disable microphone noise suppression option. It is located in settings / call settings.
