Hi. This is the first time I am posting on XDA. I have n7000 and was on stock ROM till some time back and recently tried 3 ROMS (PA, Carbon & PacMan). On all these 3 ROMS, I have faced 2 common issues:
1. While talking through car bluetooth, the sound volume is fine for some time and then it suddenly drops for the other person while I can hear them loud and clear. This was never an issue with the stock ROM.
2. While having a call using car bluetooth, the system hangs if I use the keypad while on a call.
I have faced the above issues on the 3 ROMS listed above. I tried searching for this problem but couldnt fine any thread on this. Currently, I am on PA 3.67. Please help.
Thanks...
Hi I just recently bought SP (C5303), unlocked BL, rooted, installed CM 11 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2599650 and the phone is great, but I've found some annoying bugs (may be rom issues).
Most important is, that the volume is veeeery low, especially when I'm in noisy places the in-call volume is just not enough even thou I have volume on max. I've found many reports to this problem, but no working solution this (http://www.droidviews.com/get-higher-volume-on-sony-xperia-z-zl-t-sp-v/ doesn't seem to do the trick).
Another thing is, when I'm using head set, listening to music and somebody calls me I can't pick it up. Button is working, but it seems to have focus not on dialer, but rather on player widget.
Does anybody else have these issues? Are there any solutions I missed?
Hello fellow XDA members
Normally I wouldn't post anything as I would have solved my problem via searching, but I could not find anything relating to my problem. Anyway here goes.
My Xperia Z does not produce sound from the loudspeaker on STOCK based roms, other roms such as CM11 and MIUI work perfectly fine. which rules out a hardware fault. The problem is rather weird. Specifically, it is like the phone thinks the earphone is plugged in, therefore all the sounds are being routed to the earphone port and not the speaker. Notification tones sometime work but it its very soft or have like a crackling sound. (Note sound works fine through the earphones). This obviously has an impact on voice calls, the only way I can talk without a headset is via bluetooth headset or to put the loudspeaker on, which then the person comes through the loudspeaker.
This lead me to believe it has something to do with Smart Connect(Liveware), where once the earphone is plugged in the music automatically starts playing, so therefore the app may think the earphone is plugged in 24/7. I deleted the app but still the problem was there.
As I said this is only apparent on stock roms. I flashed unmodded stock via flashtool(4.3) and still same problem, other stock based roms I have tried include Existenz v1.5.5(4.4.2) and BlackZ(4.4.2). However on CM11 roms(4.4.4), MIUI(4.2.2 - 4.4) and ColorOS(4.2.2) the sound works completely fine, except on CM11 the mic randomly stops working but that may be another bug entirely.
I am completely stumped on this and any help would be appreciated. Thank you

1- Sorry if I posted in the wrong thread.
2- I have PureXaudio installed, but it does not help, I have also tried every other sound mod but since it does not change where the sound is outputted through it doesn't help(except my music sounds cooler )
3- As I said in the original post I have searched for it and no-one has this particular problem, there are similar ones though but those have been resolved with flashing stock. But with the stock rom the problem still persists.

Hello. I have a problem with my Bluetooh headset (Sony SBH20). Hardware headset volume level (it has 7 levels) links to phone's software volume level (it has 15 levels) so I can't control volume precisly. Therefore I must to choose between quiet and loud sound. This problem exists in CM13 and the latest versions of AOKP, Resurrection Remix, SlimROM Marshmallow (Stock and CM12.1 and earlier are ok). I've tried to install SoundMod by Quarx (beta 1) but it didn't help. Does anyone has suggestions?
I used to use my Mi9T Pro to record audio with my Rode Lavalier GO external microphone using a very good app called RecForge II Pro while I was on official MIUI. It worked perfectly with no problems at all.
Recently I switched to LineageOS 17.1 (Un-official build [04/06/20] - fw. 12) and I just found out that the external microphone volume is extremely low now. It does work, there are no cracks or problems in audio, but it's extremely low. I had to add +15dB to even hear anything, but that's not a solution to this problem.
Could you please help me with this? Point me to the right direction on how to fix this?
Thanx.
i guess its a common issue on every custom rom now... i am still looking for solutions
