[Q] Sound Bug After KitKat Update - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, i recently updated my Sony Xperia Z1 Model No: C6902 with the latest kitkat update but after the update their is disturbances heard in the message notification tone....what shall i do? is there a problem with the update itself?

Maybe, to early to say if it is a bug, some users have to report it as well too. Try Factory Reset first, it will wipe your data but it will clean up after update.

Do you have any mods installed that may have restored with titanium when you reinstalled the rom?
Could be that something is not playing nice with the new base.
Attempt a clean install with no restores and test the audio, then restore and if it comes back after the restore you'll know if it's a rogue app / mod or not.

I as well am having the same issue. The notification "skips" if you will at the beginning first 1-2 seconds of any notification. I have not noticed if this issue is present in a phone ring yet, only in notifications.

So, no solution yet?... I have same issue... And this notification ringtone is annoyed...

Shahzaib.khan I don't believe your referencing the same bug we are discussing. If I'm not mistaken your discussing the sound through the internal earpiece instead of the loudspeaker. We are referring to a notification tone which skips when being played during an actual notification

Same annoying problem here. Stuttering notification sound and sometimes the ringtone gets really low (10%).
Only a reboot fixes the problem. But after after a few hours it's back again :crying:

Guys i guess i was right at the first place
I comeback to 4.4 from the start
I flashed xperia ultra firmware which is modified by nut then i put 156 of xperia z1 then i root it and flash recovery on it and then formated every thing except external card, i formated internal memory also. And yes till now received 5 calls there is no problem...
Try it every one

Sorry guys the above method also didnt work. In short kitkat from sony sucks. Sony developers need to learn something from the xda developers.

So we just wait the next fixed firmware from Sony?

Hi,
Is this problem solved now for you after the update to .757?
It hasn't for me. I still get the annoying broken/disturbed notification tone many times even after a clean install of the FW .757.
I am on stock ROM, non rooted. I really do want to know which app is playing rogue, if it is an app. I thought after the few updates to the walkman app, it may solve the issue, but it didn't.

Sound is great but Bluetooth audio and call do not work. I tested with my SBH50 and MW1.
Works almost perfect except for one major flaw. Bluetooth call handling doesn't work on my ZR. When a call is made or received, there is no audio. I can't hear what the other party is saying. Please fix this. I'm using stock jb 4.2.2, and the Bluetooth headset I am using is Sony smart wireless headset pro.
Otherwise the mod is great.

The dev of this mod wont fix this bug because he does not own any bluetooth headset This is PureXAudio mod for Xperia Z and it also works on ZR.

I do not know what happens in a few days down here comes my XV shutting down, sometimes in games, when I listen to music and sometimes even the launch of app.

I use swap mod, but I wore some time ago, and never had this problem, these shutdowns began this week, and have not used any recent mod, nor installed new applications

I don't remember well as I don't get back yet mine Z1, can you use different format for recording videos?
Weird fact, i've Just try with the 3 modes (auto, manual 720p &1080p) no more audio recording lag... Maybe a random issue because this happen a few times. But at this moment it work I don't know why. I'll come back if this persist or if someone have the same issue =)

I don't know how baseband can improve the quality recording, are you sure about that? I know the baseband is the Radio Package for Z1 like Bluetooth, Network and WiFi.
Give it a try if there was no problem in older version then may be its the same issue with the baseband

[Q] kitkat worth upgrading

First of all i dont care much about 4.4, i prefer overall performance. So my question is, is it worth upgading considering its improvement and bugs?
There are some nice touches, but the phone is just as fast as before.
IMO for a release it seems rather unstable. Tried it and well, I'd wait for the next release.
I wait... As it seems like Sony have not tested things properly

No, it's not worth.
Am not updating.
need root to sort the sd card issue and i cba with the hassle of flashing ftf, downgrading then upgrading all for an update which adds nothing in terms of features and appears to have plenty more bugs
does the z1 still have its SMS app on KitKat 4.4 or have they switched to Google Hangouts?
if so then thats another reason why i wont be updating.

Whatsapp audio messages wtf?

Since I've updated on kk 4.4.4 the whatsapp audio messages are strange. It's sounds like I'm under water. My voice goes up and down.
How to fix this? Any idea
Thx

i have this bug a long time with me, since the .757 version, i searched him a lot of times how to solve him and i don't found nothing, apparently is a bug on sony firmware that they keeped until this last version, my advice is for record the audio by the default android app, and not the default whatsapp recorder when you send an audio for someone, for me sounds a little better but still not 100% :highfive: , my hope was that this last update will solve this bug but apparently not :\, i have an C6943 and i don't know if i can update to the 4.4.4 cause apparently the ftf's released are only for the C6903, but the both models are actually the same thing, the only diference is that the c6943 have digital tv and radio(things that i don't give a shi* to lose), the rest is the same than c6903, i want to update D:
I had this problem on stock roms once again. At romaur I don't had this problem

Indeed, its a bug with stock ROM, CM and AOSP. Try to record your voice using any voice recorder and you'll see what I mean.
But I want to use the whatsapp recorder. It's very good quality with this
