No sound through headphones

Since this morning when plugging in my headphones that came with the phone I am getting no sound whatsoever. When I unplug them I get sound as normal. Volume is set just above mid range. I also tried another set of headphones but still no joy. I have never had this issuebbefore today so it's really bugging me.
If anyone can help me I would gladly appreciate it, as I listen to music on the go frequently.
Many thanks

Connected headphones to my tv and headphones work fine.

Getting a very feint sound now from both headphones as opposed to before when there was no sound at all. Still unhappy though.

[Q] Apple Earpod issue !

Is it true that the Note 3 makes it incompatible with earphones from Apple?
When I plugged the apple earphones into my notes, I heard no sound at all even though the phone detected a head phone plugged in.
Anyone knows how to solve this? Because the Note 3 doesn't even come with earphones....

I haven't tried the old one, but the new one doesn't work. Can't hear any music. Actually, I can hear "sound", not music.... the sound is way to low and noisy......

Incoming calls

Starting two days back, my Z1 receives incoming calls on external speakers instead of internal, so every incoming call starts that way. I need to manually put the call in internal speaker mode.
Unrooted, 4.3, the .290 build.

Same here, seems the priblem is latest Sony Sociallife update.
Try the following: clear cache and data, uninstall updates, deactivate app, restart. Let me know.

Well, what I did was have someone call me, and call answering was sent to external speaker as usual. During the conversation, I plugged in the headphones and call went to headphones, and then, during the call, I removed them.
After that, I had another three incoming calls, and everything went back to normal, calls were directed to internal audio, not external.
I did that, because I remember that two days ago I was using Walkman app, headphones on, and phone rang. Answered the call from phone's dialler app, and all was fine. And since then, it all started with calls to external, like the phone did not "remember" that headphones were removed.
But that is just my guess, since it seems this plugging/unplugging headphones now fixed it. But you also might be right, since it's two days ago that I've updated Socialife app indeed.
I will keep monitoring incoming calls' behavior, and if it reverts back to external, I will unistall updates, and clear cache etc.
Oh, and before doing the headphones trick, just plain restarting the phone didn't work.
Let me know if you can pinpoint more exactly the cause of all this.

u place your phone on a flat surface? if its so, than the phone is helping u to use external speaker since u r not not bringing up the phone to your ear.

This just started happening to me to, was going to post about it. Going to try some of your suggestions.

No, phone is not on a flat surface, it is happening even when I put it to my ear, the call stays on external speaker, and I have to tap the on-screen button to direct it to internal speaker.

In my case it seems that the headphones trick did the job (so far), but if it will persist, I will take a closer look at the Socialife app as well.

Happening here with me as well. Can anyone confirm if it's socialife?

Well, this morning I took a call, and again, on external speaker...
I uninstalled Socialife updates, see how it goes from there.
I don’t have the slightest idea why this started to happen..

I have the same problem here, not all the time but in almost 10 percent of my calls, it is not really annoying but its weird because all started from nothing. Any idea!? I removed social and still the same

I am facing the same problem in 257. n i remember that few days ago i received the call through headphones.

Maybe if we clear data and cache from the phone app fixes the problem?...my problem is gone after doing the headphone trick so can anyone else try it or did anyone tried it already?
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk

I did the headphone trick, but it didn't work for long, after three or four calls, it reverted back to external speaker.

Hello.
I tried:
Disable Sony social l./uninstall updates.
Phone cache clear.
Software repair via Sony pc compaion.
Problem not solved.
Always after phone restart, first incomming call goes to L.speaker.
So Today i tried to uninstall latest Google chrome update(28.02.2014).
After phone restart first incomming is ok- loudspeaker is disabled!
So maybe its a Google chrome problem?

My Xperia Z1s Music Volume is Terrible.

So I recently just got this z1s and I am not please with the music volume. It automatically adjusts my music's volume on bass heavy songs. It is extremely annoying that I have to turn my car stereo and my phone on max to get any type of enjoyable volume. I never had an issue with my s3 doing any of the sort.
Went on a road trip last weekend and had to resort to my old s2 titanium for the trip. I've tried what I believe to be everything, and nothing
Is anyone else having this issue? If so, what are you doing about it?

They never will until it's rootable I guess. Since this is a dev forum, no real development can be done on it till you can at least root it.

Did you try unchecked all the options under settings, audio? There is skating another section in there with an equal that also has more settings to disable. I only use the settings for the external speaker.
Sent from my C6916 using xda app-developers app

Yeah I tried that as well. I've tried multiple equalizers, all ending in the same results.
Right now I'm listening to Google Play Music subscription , with max volume on my headset and handset. I'm listening to Babyface - Loneliness. It's sad that when the bass drops the entire volume is toned down. I hate it.
It's like my phone is telling me the appropriate volume to listen to. There's no problem with that really. My Samsung had that, but I was able turn that off.
My girl has the iPhone 5s. And now has bragging rights lol. Too bad I'm outside of my 14day return policy, or I wouldve waited on that HTC.
Sent from my C6916 using xda app-developers app

So you went to settings, sound, sound effects, settings and made sure everything there was unchecked? specifically clear stereo?
Also make sure normalization is unchecked under settings, sound.
One of those 2 settings gave me the same issue.
I think clear audio under settings, sound (which disables the other seeing options) also causes this issue.
Just get in the and play with the options. One of them is bound to sound right to you.
Sent from my C6916 using xda app-developers app

We just have to face it - this phone overall sucks. Terrible issues with 0 cares from Sony. I was pretty much scammed with this phone, and so were thousands others.
The sound quality of Sony is not bad, but I've never in my life heard a Sony device that had LOUD volume. That includes the Xperia Z1, which has a TERRIBAD speaker. It's not even two speakers, very pathetic for a 'flagship' model. I could never really get it to play loud enough. I have the exact same problem in my car - everything is quite silent and never loud enough.
Z1 is just a huge disappointment in virtually every regard, at least for me. If we have to resort to third party apps or rooting just to have a normal volume boost - things are not good. Avoid this phone if you are considering buying it.

Audio Starts Loud Then Lowers

So my best friend just got a Nexus 6 not too long ago, but seems to be facing an issue where all Music/Sound starts playing loud when you first start it but after a few seconds the volume becomes very low. We have flashed custom roms as well as used stock and still face the issue. We have searched the forum threads and cant seem to find anything that fixes it.
Any help would be appreciated.

I had this issue and replaced it no problem. This motorola qc is really bad

Hi,
@VeryCrushed , @Tsoflyyup
I have the same problem, Can you try to connect the charger and see if the problem persists? My phone seems to have this problem when the charger is not connected and the battery has a low level.

I had the same problem. However, as soon as i use any custom kernel everything is fixed.

I've used both Sensei and Faux, and it seems to happen on both. Might be a hardware issue?

I think it can be related with the power saving mode, have you tried using the charger and see if the problem persists?

OK, so I plugged the phone in and called; now, not only is the ring not descending, it doesn't ring at all! Called from my landline, my wife's cell, my daughter's cell, and my work cell. No ring! WTF? I guess it's back to square 1...
