Hello, yesterday I updated and re-updated the latest (at least for Argentina) KitKat firmware.
The problem is that I'm still getting the speaker issues, where the sound swaps from the speakers to the earphone and I can't really hear my
ringtone when someone is calling or the volume on different apps is just too low.
I'm quite new to Android and I've been lurking around the internet for hours but it seems the update did fix the speaker issue for every user. I feel like an alien and I do not know what to do.
Shall I re-install the update until it fixes or should I just go to the closest Sony Support in my city? Thank you very much sorry for being this rookie.
Also, I have my BootLoader Locked.

Hi everybody,
last week i got my HD7 but there's a reallyyyyy big problem. the speaker. if i listen to music or alarm clock, the sound is soooooo low, i don't even hear my alarm clock, that really sucks. has anybody else such a problem and is there any solution ? i already resettet the phone but still the problem exists.

I find the ringtone and alarm to be loud, but when listening to media, a voice call and speaker phone are all quite low.
Judging from the other threads that were suggested when you started yours (attached), then yes, other people do have this problem.
We believe it is a software issue as in places the speaker is incredibly loud (games for example). Let's hope its fixed with an update, and let's hope you learn how to use the forum tools (such as search )

We had one update already and what nothing. It seems it's not important. I have the same problem as well. I tried to modify registry but nothing changed.
Agreed, they are taking their time with the updates, after all this first update was an update to get ready for the next update. What's all that about?
As i said, all we can do is hope.
in my experience if you use a headset, volume in phone calls is much louder
otherwise it's very annoying, especially when you're outside and there's background noise, i usually have to pretend it's very windy so i can ask people to constantly repeat what they say

Lmao this is funny

more recent firmware updates (available here on XDA devs) solve this issue.
I flashed my O2 HD7 with the latest rom and the volume has increased.
@scoob101 which rom did you flash on to it?

Can you specify, what exactly your problem is?
This weekend, I had a speaker problem as well - when I phoned someone, I didn't hear anything, although the connection was established - after a reboot, the problem was gone...
Kind regards,

When i recieve calls in outdoor environment, the volume is very low, its difficult to hear. the volume of the earphone speakers s very low. but when we use the headset to hear music, the volume is fine.

I am making a wild guess have you installed any call recording app which is running in background, this may be the problem.
In Call Speaker Problem
Its a New Unit have not installed any applications till now. what about you people how is the volume in outdoor.
i had the same problem a few time since js5 firmware. an interesting thing is, that im using a voodoo kernel with every firmware since js5 and perhaps this causes this problem to european devices ?!...

I will also confirm that my beloved Sony Xperia T on TMOBILE network is also experiencing LOW IN CALL VOLUME AND MIC.
Utterly useless as of today and has been progressing steadily to this state for the last few days .............
I have completed a factory restore through my pc and Sony Companion and it is still the same ...........theres nothing blocking earpiece or microphone and I suspect it is software ...as I noticed an update was released in March 2014 ...It wasnt long after I updated my phone on Monday of this week ...when I noticed strange goings on with my phone...
Random lockouts ....Switch offs ,,,,, strange items appearing on my home screen etc.....
This is doing my nut ......as ther seems to be no way to get it back to the state it was in before Monday ..............
Day 2 of trouble.....................hrs spent trying to sort it ....tired , weary , desperate ,
PLEASE HELP SONY ..........................
thankyou for your support ..............?????????????????????????

Xperia T low call volume
Hi Team,
I am also facing the same low call volume, and i am thinking its something related to software, i am now using PureXT v4 now its bit audiable than first. But still not able to hear anything in little crowded environmen to.
Someone can fix this and help us, i am keeping the earphone all the time to atten my calls..
There is some sound mod around i got, but after installing that the sound became wrose so i reinstalled the same PureXT os again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xper...rease-t2302748 This was the mod i used. But this is not working for me.. Didnt meant any offense guys, this is mod is great for some users, not working for me my bad luck. you can check and try if you want.
In call volume on the handset earpiece and Bluetooth headset is very low for me too,, did anyone find a fix?

so after I updated to 5.1 the volume in speaker is so bad I have to mute my tv.. I don't recall if this happened after I encrypted or before bit to say the least it used to be very loud now it's so bad it's driving me crazy.. I am clueless of what to do... now this would be no problem if I had [email protected]!# ing root but I dont.. any solutions guys.. gals please help if you can... thanks!
I'm sorry, I can't offer a solution. I just wanted to say that I also noticed a drop in speaker volume going from KitKat to Lollipop. I find it strange that the software side of things could affect a hardware issue so much.
Volume has always been terrible with this phone and now on LP it's even worse. I think CF is working on adding Viper which if I understand correctly should increase the volume. So I guess we just have to wait.
that doesn't help me with a non rooted device
disable speaker effects on phone speaker on sound settings
did that didn't work
I've noticed the volume is lower as well. I'm hoping ComputerFreak bumps it up in his image again.
mine isn't low it's almost non existent.. I can hardly hear YouTube in a not so busy sushi restaurant. it's unbelievable!!! really.
i have a config file to boost the volume of the phone, but you have to be rooted, is also included on computerfreek mofo versions.
thanks but I updated to 5.1 even before the ota... bad move I guess.. unless you know of a way to root 5.1
just got a new update that fixed volume for the most part at least better than it was I think
Hi Guys, Just bought Z3+ a week ago facing some issues after i updated the device to latest version.
So 3days Before i just updated to the latest version that is. 305 Fw. Today i just experienced that i can't barely hear the ringtone and missed a lot of calls. Then i noticed only the Bottom speaker is working for ringtone the top speaker is not working. But when i play music or watch videos both the speakers are working and quite loud too. Its happening after the update, its a bug or something? Is anyone facing this issue? Please help or suggest something.
Same here, waiting for somebody to fix
if you are rooted, you can try this, it works
