HELP... sound issues when making /receiving calls on Z1 - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all..
Hoping someone may be able to shed some light on an issue I am currently having with my Sony experia z1. So basically every time I go to make a call, it looks like its ringing but no audio. A similar thing happens when I receive a call, the caller hears me, but I do not hear them. Having to shut down & restart my phone every time I want to make a call (or when I receive one) is starting to get really frustrating. I have not changed any settings, so aside from a factory reset... is there any other way to diagnose what is causing it and possibly fix the problem???
Ta..

Diamond fault

Anyone else had anything like this:
When the phone first boots up its perfectly fine, calls work both ways, it plays music no problem.
However leave it sitting on the side for 15-20 mins and then get a call, the phone receives it but makes no noise, answer call an the phone doesnt even sound like its picked it up it's just silent, can' hear person, they can't hear you. Same on outbound calls the phone is just dead i cant hear anything an receiver cant hear me. But the phone does no the call is connected as it rumbles when the person answers but i never hear the ringing before that.
Also once it is in this state, got to music on the phone and click play and there is no sound at all!
This has happened even after updating to newer official rom as well.
Any ideas???
Many Thanks
I am having exactly the same problem.... All sound from the phone just stops working, also the alarm, which means I can never trust my phone to wake me up in the mornings!
Another problem with the phone is that when the phone is called it takes a while for the phone to ring. I have tried to call my phone from a landline and it actually rings three times before the diamond makes a noise!

Disabling vibration during a phone conversation...

(Having your phone in vibration mode) Have you guys ever experienced the 5 sec mail notification vibrating in the middle of calls annoying both you and the caller??
The Japanese phones over here usually disable vibration notifications during phone conversations by default...I'm confused as to why the Diamond does not act the same way...
Has anyone else experienced the same? If so, is there a solution to this problem?
Was anyone able to figure this out? or I am the only have this issue

Nah.. i have this problem as well.. it gets pretty annoying when there's a constant buzzing while I'm trying to talk... lol...
A similar thing happens when an SMS is received while i'm on a call..
Unlike the other non-windows phones i've had where it might simply make a beep, my diamond actually plays the entire SMS ringtone from the speaker over the voice of the person who i'm talking to.... (I dont know if the other person actually hears it...)
hopefully someone has a solution to either of these problems....

Delayed call answering

I have a strange behavior when a call is accepted on the Z3C and wanted to ask if maybe others have this problem too.
If someone calls me, I pull the green button to the right and put the phone quickly at the ear and talk quickly, then my caller hears me after one second. Therefore he does not understand my name.
I manage myself so dasss I just keep the phone after accepting slowly leads to my ear, so that the caller understands me completely. This is obviously not a permanent solution.
The problem is even more extensive.
If I call someone, I can hear the called party also delayed, just tried.
Maybe someone else has the problem or a solution.
Problem yes, solution no

Muted Outgoing Call Mic

Hello all,
I am making this thread because I am having a really strange and frustrating issue that I am hoping can be solved before I am forced to get rid of my phone. I have a factory unlocked SM-G955U running the most current stock software. Basically my issue is my phone randomly mutes my mic during outgoing calls. I can hear the person on the other end but they can't hear me. Sometimes all I have to do is hang up and call back to fix the issue. Other times, the only way for me to fix the issue is for me to restart my phone. Strangely if I hang up and the other person calls ME back, then the problem is instantly solved. I thought this was limited to actual phone calls, but I had the same issue happen today with Whatsapp as well. I can confirm the problem is 100% isolated to OUTGOING calls and has no effect on incoming calls. I would have to assume this issue is software related and not hardware related given the fact this is only happening randomly on outgoing calls.
Ive done all of the basic troubleshooting and even removed my ultra thin phone case with no change in results.
Any help would be much appreciated thanks!

Take your phone to Verizon, they will flash your unlocked phone with their software, it will still be unlocked but you will get voicemail, visual voicemail and wifi calling back because their software has these features activated. I understand you were probably trying to get around their bloatware but the lesser of two evils is apps needed.
