No sound in Kitkat - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I flashed my sister Xperia Z to 10.5.1.A.0.283 but now it does not have sound in call or Music/Movie or ringtone via speaker.
I went back to 10.3.1.A.0.244 and every things work fine until i update phone via OTA to Kitkat! Again no sound. I tried several times but had no luck.
Any suggestions?

I flashed every 4.4 Roms that i founded in general forum. 6602 and 6603. No chance. I searched forum and find a app named "SoundAbout". I found that problem is OS cant recognize headphone is attach or not (in this case it thinks it attaches so it wont play sound from speaker) with that app I can choose sounds/call play from speaker or headphone or ... . So at least my sister can use her phone but wtf? I can deal with it (probably) but she is 12.

Hmm. Try to flash a modded version. For example a prerooted one.if still the same problem so you don't have anything you can do only downgrade to 4.2.2 . Or you can try the 10.4.B.0.569 one its also 4.3

[Q] Phone detecting headphones are always connected

Hey guys I've a problem with my C6603.
It happend that my phone thinks that there's always a headphone connected to it. You'll think and what? Well, basically when I call someone I have to use the loudspeaker function or otherwise I just can't here through the phone hearspeaker. When I try to listen to music or whatever I can't.
So I know it's a hardware problem, but can't it be created something like a "mod" to let the phone avoid the jack, just disable it by software?
Thanks.

It was happening to me as well in 4.3 or KitKat, don't remember now. Give a try to flash another or reflash this ROM, that's all

Well that's weird, 'cause I had the same issue but within ROM reinstallation it fixed by its own. Have you tried Custom ROM?
try this app maybe it helps https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix&hl=en

I have same problem as you on my Xperia ZR C5502 5.1.1.I havw read somewhere It is Sony's software problem not hardware.
Have you found any proper solution without any app?
Yeah same here I couldn't do anything about it just using that program https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix
Be aware if you may forgot the settings and while you record a video the sound will be lost

Is it just in the Camera App or on every app you try to open (ex. skype)?
Also if possible try to post a screenshot with the problem.

Here u go
Really strange, I don't believe it's a hardware problem. Try this : on the dialpad type this *#*#7378423#*#* . This opens the service menu in xperia phones. Just go to service test and test the secondary camera. If it works then you should do a factory reset, maybe you messed up something in the system...
It saying this device does not support this function.

I hope it's not a hardware problem. To eliminate the possibility of a software related problem i suggest to flash a .ftf with the Flashtool.
If the problem still persist then its probably hardware related.
It's not that difficult to change the front facing camera in XZ (I have done it my self changing the motherboard - and the cameras are just below that) but that that would compromise the Water-resistance of the phone plus things could go really bad.

It is really weird, if it would be a hardware problem, the camera would show up as a option to activate but it world either crash or not show any image at all (like black screen).
At this point I don't know what to say. Try send it to a repair shop, there seems to be no other alternatives.
hey bro i have the same front cam problem with my phone,i dont know how to do .ftf with the flash tool.can you please guide me?
i'll be really thankfull.
Same problem here

This thread is exclusive for Xperia z, if you have any question for your c5 please write in the right section. However flashing a firmware for Sony devices is almost identical for every device, so you can find them in the sticky posts on the cross-device threads.

Stuck in Headphone mode after updating to 4.4.4

Hey,
so I got my new Xperia Z today
It arrived on 4.3 but I decided to flash a 4.4.4 FTF file. Everything worked fine but now the audio only comes through the headphone port.
I tried cleaning it and everything but nothing worked so far...
Hope someone can help me out
Edit: It works normally on firmware 10.4.B.0.569, but everything above that doesnt work
Help would be highly appreciated since I just got this phone
