As I dared to unlock my bootloader, I found on z3 and z2 threads that there are mods to make incoming calls ring on both speakers and to boost the headphones volume. Example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/development/z3-speakers-incoming-call-headphones-t2889964
Will there be any possibilities to try something like that on z3c?
Of course, we must wait until more devs get there hands on this device then everything will arrive in time.
Getting mine tomorrow

The mod in 1st post is functional on the Z3C , its mods few lines in the mixer_paths.xml.
Make an backup (included in the linked mod).
Root needed as usual.

I am using this, but I am still on kitkat http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3015912 and it's working fine for me! I am using androplus kernel because you can modify sound quality with it. And yes, volume is pretty low in loud speaker anyway, but I think that in general the speaker volume is pretty low if you boost it sound is distorted anyway, i think, I suppose, it's because it's waterproof (I had a boomsound speaker on my previous phone, this one isnt loud even half of it)

Are there any hacks to increase the speakerphone volume?
I was rocking Resco Radio and its plenty loud. But the speakerphone is sadly quiet. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Mine is quiet too, but the sound is already cracking if I use the speakerphone. It's unfortunate that the quality on the speakerphone is under par.
Does yours crack?

What about hardware modifications? Maybe two speakers. There is room for it.
Cool, let's get some xenon flash in there too while we're at it. Looking forward to when you post pics of that, Paitor hehe
I too want the speaker volume to go up. I dont really bother about the music playback but i want the phone to be loud when it rings when a call comes in. I donot realize the phone is ringing in my pocket and end up missing calls.

Hi all,
I still have a problem with sound-quality during a call.
When I put a call on speaker Ihear a very high-pitched loud béééééééééép.
It sounds a bit like what you get when you put a microfone next to a speaker that is transmitting sound from that speaker.
Everybody heras it, on the other side of the call it seems it even overwhelms my voice, effectively rendering a call impossible.
If I do not put a call on speaker I can speak with the person on the other side. But on the other side of the call it sounds as if my Phone is wrapped in blankets. Some described it different: "it sounds like you have put bass way up to the max and disabled all high- and mid-tones."
It sounds rather like a hardware-problem, BUT.... (and this is where I no longer understand it),
it does NOT happen with stock-ROmS...
It happened with JellyBam and Paranoid Android, does not happen with stock, ROmAUR or Experiment.
my conclusion is that it either is caused by cm10 or by JB (4.1.2).
Does anyone have any suggestions to as what Icould do at this stage_? Iam at this moment running ROmAUR but I really miss JB....
Grtz Henro.
Hi,
Whenever I put my phone on speaker while making a call, I hear this very high-pitched tone: péééééééééééééééép.
This sound is so high/loud that even colleagues in the office next to mine hear it. (And complain about it)
On the other side of the line it is heard too, people complain that they find it hard to have a conversation with me when I put the phone on speaker.
I am running Paranoid Android 2.56 Utacka (JB) now. The first day I had the phone it happened too, but I do not recall whether that was before or after PA 2.56 Utacka was installed.
It is only when I put a call on speaker. Games, music, video, recorde audio, it all runs fine. But as soon as I put a call on speker....
péééééééééééééééép'
Any suggestions?
Grtz Henrov
You are probably in a place where the mic or speakers are giving off feedback from another mic or speaker wherever you are.

Open up the dialer, chose settings, tick background noise suppression.

Collector title.
Sony Xperia T - Stock ROM - 4.1.2 Stock Leaked Launcher - Rooted soon.
So it seems cm10 related
I have been trying a lot of stuff and I m fairly sure now it happens on CM10 based ROMS.
Any one knows something about this? Suggestions?
Design faux par
I think it's down to the fact the speaker is right next to the mic on the phone. What [email protected] thought that one up. If you put your finger over the read speaker does it stop squeeling?
I'm not so sure that you could describe it as a faux pas. I often use the device on loudspeaker and actually never faced that problem, not on stock nor on CM. It seems to be either a) a different situation the device is used in (see below) or b) is device-specific which I somehow doubt.
I get the back coupling whining, but only if I'm on loudspeaker and the person I'm calling is in the same room, also on loudspeaker. Then my device picks up it's own echo on the other persons loudspeaker. But I believe this is not the case discussed in this thread as this would be the case with ANY communications device used in this setup, not only cellphones.
is there any solution for that?
with cm11 there is a whistle sound wwhen turn on loadspeaker . with the stock rom there is no whistle sound, but the caller hear it self twice .
what is going on with that phone?
I think the loudness of the speaker is too weak.
Missed a phone call few times already

install volume + app free version then pay for the real one around 80p install it.
you can change speaker volumes and also phone volumes make bass better its very good works on my galaxy s 3 thats how
i know it works on xperia z just go into the sound options, on your phone.
and change sound music effects to volume + maybe reboot phone after. i hope this helps

I am also looking for a speaker boost mod, I love the xperia z but the only thing bad with it is its internal speaker volume which sucks.

Hope the new version of Acid mod will change this.

Volume + works fine, but more so in the paid version, allows much more volume increase levels of the speaker.
And it doesn't disable other mods, as much as overrides them, but you have lots of options within volume +, I have the paid version and the EQ is great, so I can pretty much match the other settings that had been overridden. Plus it doesn't effect my headset, only my external speaker, or which ever you adjust from the main settings page.

It's a little late to ask this but, could you solve your low call volume problem?
I have the same low volume trouble with my Xperia Go while making phone calls. The phone is good and still operable after years but i always had call problems. The in-call volume is too low, i can't hear the person clearly especially in noisy places. We used Sony Ericsson K750, w800 phones in the past and they also had low volume in calls. And i see that there are still some Sony users which complain about this same problem like us.
If you solved this issue, could you please let me know?
Thanks in advance. :good:
I don't know what XZ you guys have, but mine is too loud and I didn't do anything to it related to sound. In fact I'm quite annoyed that the phone is too loud when I have a conversation, thus everyone around me being able to hear. I always have to lower the volume to the minimum and it's still too damn loud.
Is there anything that can lower the volume, not make it go up??
I've even disabled the MusicFX and Audio Settings but it's still too loud..

Really?
I almost thougt that it was a Sony characteristic, to limit the volume to some certain level which is low, when compared to other brands (maybe for avoiding to damage the ears?). When i search the web with "sony xperia low call volume" parameters, i see there are lots of complaints about different phones from Sony (NOT just XperiaZ).
Do we have faulty phones, or do you have really sensitive ears? Can you please compare the sound level with different brand phones also?

I plan on purchasing one of these soon and I keep reading about poor call volume. Has anyone tried Viper Audio to try and increase the "call speaker" volume? I'm just curious if this has been successfully attempted or not.

do not own this device but from past devices such apps/enhancements change the media volume not in call earpiece volume ...could be wrong...think if rooted someone has to figure out how to change the audio amplification values...like on Samsung there would be a mixer.xml file inside system/etc I think.

I own the Mi Mix. Call volume is not an issue.
In doors with volume at about 25% I held a 30 minute call and sound and clarity were excellent.
Outdoors while walking at 50% no issues.
From my experience too there's absolutely no issue with call volume or clarity on this phone. I've no idea where people have got this impression from?
A couple of the reviews have indicated the call volume is very low and muffled. I'll have mine today and I'll leave my 2 cents.

From my point of view the volume is loud enough, coming from a S7 edge. And I don't find the sound muffled at all, I find it even better as I don't get my ear agressed by high tones.
Guys you're awesome!! Thanks for clearing all these misconceptions out for me. Was a worry for me for sure,but not now.
Yeah, I was a bit concerned as well. Hopefully we are all good.

so did you get yours and try it out? thx
One of the reviewers noted that the 'loudest' place to listen is roughly 1/3 down the phone.
If you look at teardown pics, where the piezo is located, that seems roughly correct.
If you're trying to listen to the phone very 'high' like you would if there was a normal earpiece, that's probably a mistake.
Also, you kinda want to have as much skin contact with the phone as possible. It seems pretty loud if you just mash the phone against
your entire ear/cheek.

Try listening whole walking on a busy street or a hall full of people.
Can barely hear the other party.
I'm also not experiencing any issue with call volume. I immediately turned the volume all the way up when I first opened the device and had to turn it wayyy down when the first call came in because it was too loud lol.

is what I thought/said sometime back..think Viper only addresses external media volume not in call volume with root someone should be able to find a mixer or audio xml file to change volume (maybe...saying but do not have device myself)
