Hello guys, i'm having a very strange issue 1 week after updating to jelly Bean, but i'll start for the beginning:
I've unlocked my phone, and no sound was produced ( the normal unlocking sound), it wasn't in Silent mode, just the speaker didn't sound. It doesn't work for music, videos, or anything, it seems to be dead, but if put the phone in my ear, i'm able to listen a very very low music sound coming out from the speaker, so it isn't really dead. - The other speaker and headset work-
Obviously, i've restarted it, and no change, i've also tried to reset it with pc Companion, and again, no change. So i left it locked in the table, and 30 minutes later, I heard the notificatio sound, and yes, it started working again, like if nothing were happened. Y was really happy, but it only lasted 2 hours, because AGAIN the same very very low sound, but this time, it comes back 2 minutes, and again silence,and again... I don't know what to try any more.. Please help me!!
Thanks anyway, and sorry for the bad english, i'm from Argentina.

I had sorta same expircne but mine is phone falure. unplugged headphonexs and no sound would come from speaker at all! So i thought maybe because headphone jack still htinks headphones are plugged in. Sure enough i plugged headphones in and unplugged them worked fine but its getting worse.
Id take it back for warranty
I had this problem yesterday then I swapped back to ICS and it was working again.

Well... it fixed itself, for now, so I won't do anything for now, but if it breaks again, i'll downgrade to ICS... sadly.
Thanks.
had this problem too, but after restarting the phone it was fine.
It's a firmware issue. My tl did that when was on ics. Personally I wouldn't root or unlock the bl. This brand of phones is very sensitive.

I have the same problem. It appeared after I unplug the earphone during a phone call. Now I have tried to restart the phone, replug the earphone, but the headset is still not working...

Hi none of the methods above works for me. This is a real issue, if a phone cannot be listened, it is not a phone anymore ...
Can someone please help? I hate to have to downgrade to ICS again ...

Yeah! I found a solution on another thread.
go to Google store and download soundabout app
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app, then toggle the options in the menu. I was able to get my sound back after using this app!
Cheers!
It works up to now

It is working since it fixed itself 1 week ago. If it breaks again, i'll use the app.

Does anyone know what determines whether the softkeys vibrate on touch? Turning volume down to silent doesn't change anything but I've noticed that sometimes there is no vibration and I can't figure out the reason.

There is an option to turn it off in the sound settings,vibrate on touch.

But there's been many times when I've not been near any settings for a while and I notice the soft keys not vibrating.

I don't know if it's a software or hardware problem.can you try a factory reset?or repair the phone via pc companion.

Firstly I'll monitor exactly what I'm doing when it next happens. I'm not rooted or unlocked yet so I guess it's nothing I've done (unless it's an app, if that's possible)

Right, so it's been almost a week. Unfortunately, I'm still having problems with no obvious explanation.
I soft-bricked my phone a few days ago so I've completely reset it. I was under the impression that it was only softkeys and haptic feedback that was being lost but today I'm sure a couple of time I've received messages without vibration (phone was in my lap and I can see the screen turn on but felt nothing).
My friend on his One X told me he often loses softkey feedback and haptics but that a message always brings it back. So until today I was putting it down to Jellybean (there seems to be a lot of S3 users with same issues too). Some S3 user reported that turning battery saving off has brought back feedback but I've not used stamina or anything like that, might there be something enabled by default I want to get rid of?
I kinda want to install CM10.1 to test on 4.2 but I'd need unlocked bootloader and I'm not sure how Amazon feel about that.
The motor seems to be ok... It sounds like a Bee or some paper trapped but from what I read that's normal because it's a thin phone. It's loud too.
When using the Service Tests area it seems to work without fail, but I need to test that after it turns off.
I'm still having this issue and I'm almost certain it must be a hardware fault.
Am I right in thinking that if I run a vibration test in the service menu then no system or app settings should prevent it vibrating?
Sometimes it fails to vibrate even in that test.

This is a pain in the arse, I've had my Z1 for less then 24 hours and already had it 5 times as I change my display settings.
Screen is there just the backlight isn't switched on.
Argh Sony

What firmware are you on? Yeah, it sucks to have issues on a brand new handset especially at this price! Try to check if there's update available. I'm currently on .531 and haven't had any SOD so far.
i have no problem

If optimised backlight is switched off then it seems to happen anytime to change anything to do with brightness.

I have experienced this bug on multiple occasions as well since I first got the phone. The phone randomly goes to sleep but the backlight stays on. Then I am not able to unlock the phone by pressing the power button and I need to hard-reset it (vol up+power) to bring it back to life.
For me it happened once or twice already even with Optimized backlight checked
happened to me when i was trying to share a dinosaur effect photo in the camera app
I actually experienced the bug on a few occasions right now and can't see a pattern. It doesn't matter if I have optimized lightening on or other functions it will just randomly happen on different occasions.
I have just flashed the newest .534 firmware and soon after the same thing happaned again so I guess it has not been fixed as of yet.

Arrgh! I just experienced this screen bug . And this is for the first time in last 4 days of owning the phone. It occurred while the phone was lying on the table (battery 9%) & I picked it up to make a call, but the screen won't light up. Had to hard boot using vol up + power button. Have not touched the optimised backlight option (still checked). Hope sony fixes this asap!
DAMN ! I'm on 14.1.G.1.534 and I just got this ! it hasn't even been 24 hours yet since I bought this phone. terribly disappointed.this could be such a great device. hope it doesn't keep happening - Sony Xperia Z1 C9602 - wtf sony.

I've had this happen twice since been on 534 firmware and had to use the red button to force the device down. Very frustrating but I think Sony will sort it and all will be good.

i have just about had enough of sony to be honest, i cant believe this is the third sony device in a row where there is something wrong with it, i bought the xperia z tablet, the touch screen was way to sensitive until an update fixed it, i bought the z ultra and returned it because of the sod, and now this, i turned off my phone last night as i didnt want to be interrupted, try to turn it on this morning, the sony screen comes up, then a blank gray screen, rebooted it a few times with no luck, the last time i just left it and eventually it booted to the home screen
and just now, i opened the camera app, just get a black screen, open snapchat to see if the camera works there, nope, it says error with the camera please restart device, so i do, only to experience the sod again...
honestly, with my experiences with xperia, i have had enough, i can put up with mediocrity only for a bit, if i keep on putting up with this crap, it makes me look like a fool
stuff you sony
Same here, terrible bug. Screen is actually there, but backlight won't turn on. I have to position phones screen towards the light source in order to go to the screen settings to uncheck optimised backlight option. If it is checked I have to uncheck it to get backlight to turn on and vice versa. Sony, fix that as soon as possible 'cause you got some pissed Xperia Z1 users here!
Im with a uk model and still on the original 518 version, and I've been playing it around for several days but no SOD issue
same issue with z1 C6903
i using z1 with .534 also facing same problem for past a week. it is dead when phone calls in. have to hard reset too. come on sony, this is issue is not new. we need a solution.
mind you, the phone is not launch in my country but i manage to use it.
Hi All,
I am from India and using Z1 (C6902) and its been 3 days since using my phone and thank god, no SOD at all...
maybe since mine is C6902 thats why ... i dont know but no SOD here till now
I have noticed this bug after i rooted my z1. (root via kingo tool), before it was working ok.
So when power off button pressed, screen still active...
after some tries, i have disabled auto-brightness check box. its now more or less working.

You're buying products that are relatively new (except the Tablet Z) and expect no bugs at all? LOL I think you need to step back and look at the whole picture. To be honest Sony releases updates in a fast and consistent manner so you should be happy that do this. Even the Nexus devices have their share of bugs and always see people react like bugs do not exist. There will always be bugs and what you want from a manufacturer is to release fixes.
Hi, me too having this bug. I had this SOD twice since last 7 days. Had to do a hard reset both the times. Waiting for sony to fix it. I think its the jelly bean bug and not the Sony's firmware's bug but can be fixed, i think.
I am from india and on the latest fw. 534.
Please let me know if there is any solution to this available in the market. Thanks in advance.

Hi there.
I noticed recently that vibrate on my HTC One has stopped.
I have tried all the vibrate settings albright it doesn't go. I have downloaded ViBe and tried some of the vibration settings. I can hear a very faint noise when my ear is on the top speaker when the settings are selected.
The phone has never been dropped and is less than two months old.
Could the issue be caused by the recent update to Android 4.2.3?
Or could a debugging help?
Thanks

Did you happen to turn on power saver? It will override and disable the vibrate functions.
Holy ... F**** thanks man ... So lame of me ... I had forgot this option ... Thanks

If the vibration feedback still does not work, try the following:
Go to HTC Guide, Support, Trouble Shooting, Sounds & Vibration.
From here, you can test the vibration motor. When i first tried this, mine did not vibrate, so I gently tapped the phone, whilst running the test until the device vibrated again.
So far, so good.
Follow and fix Vibrate Stop HTC One M7
My issue is with HTC 828.. Its not vibrating.. Could you please help me??
Anyone having any specific issues with the most recent update?
Well my wife has been using it the past couple days and got the update at work yesterday... Today she mentioned the Home button notification light doesn't seem to be working. (it was when I first started using the phone) I'm not sure if they are tied, or if she messed with a setting. If anyone else who got the update would like to test the notif LED on the Home button that would be cool.
hardware buttons issue
The notification light for me is fine but my hardware buttons are testy. sometimes I have to double press the buttons for it to respond. Other times the entire phone freezes for a minute or the buttons don't work at all. I think it was a bad update.
Some days later the phone stopped getting text messages until I restart it. Now it gets them hours later. I already cleaned out the cache. But did not fix it. This update is killing my phone.....

No noticeable issues here yet.
No issues noted by me. It fixed some Bluetooth volume issues I was having so that's good.
The led notifications light on mine sometimes freezes on.
