Hi all,
I have the original Xperia Z 6603. It is upgraded to android 5.1.1 now and I have been using it for a while. Overall it works well but the loudspeaker volume is practically inaudiable. I can barely hear it unless I hold the phone speaker right up next to my ear. I'm just wondering if this is something anyone else has/is experiencing?
I'm wondering if it's a hardware or a software issue?
Thanks
i have same problem with it
I thought my xperia had some speaker issues.. but yeah i observed this after 5.1.1 update

Use any custom roms. It will give you more sound to speakers. Or try some audio mods

try this mod. I'm using it since KitKat. Loud crisp stereo. It's the most non intrusive sound mod

Try on Google play - alsamixer - download.

Hello, yesterday I updated and re-updated the latest (at least for Argentina) KitKat firmware.
The problem is that I'm still getting the speaker issues, where the sound swaps from the speakers to the earphone and I can't really hear my
ringtone when someone is calling or the volume on different apps is just too low.
I'm quite new to Android and I've been lurking around the internet for hours but it seems the update did fix the speaker issue for every user. I feel like an alien and I do not know what to do.
Shall I re-install the update until it fixes or should I just go to the closest Sony Support in my city? Thank you very much sorry for being this rookie.
Also, I have my BootLoader Locked.

Ive just purchased this phone from Telus today, just want to know if anyone else is experiencing this

I noticed this on my moto x 2014.. What do you think.. is this a defective mobile .. should go for replacement?
So far i didn't notice it
Are you running some kind of eq
Like the one in Play Music or something like Viper
Same for me, i tried equalizer in OFF, same distortion .. any solution ?
I have this distortion as well, with our without equalizer and for music, ringtones and speakerphone calls.
Not hearing it
I'm cranking it with many différent kinds of music just to try and get the distortion noise but im not getting any of it. Any songs or only specific ones?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JcLY5yRJpQ try this song... It was quite evident in this song.. I got a replacement and dont have this problem now
Thanks I exchanged mine and it's evident the first device speaker was flawed. This one is great now. Love this device.
I'm running the latest version of SlimLP on 5.1.1. The issue also happens on stock firmware too. Here are the problems:
1. The speaker doesn't work, except extremely rare circumstances when I hear a notification, usually from FB Messenger.
2. The microphone doesn't pick my voice up during calls, forcing me to use an integrated mic on headphones or loudspeaker.
3. The earspeaker doesn't seem to work.
4. When I record video or something, the sound is picked up, so obviously the microphone is still functional.
I've used the Xperia diagnostics app, and the microphone isn't deemed functional on that, the ear speaker doesn't work at all, but the loudspeaker works perfectly fine. I really don't know what to do. I don't think this is a hardware issue with any of them except the earspeaker. Anyone know fixes? I've tried pressing down on the areas but that doesn't seem to have an effect.

I also had a similar issue on another Xperia and I simply changed my firmware. Most likely I must have downgraded it. However, there is an app called SOUND ABOUT
That should fix the sound problems. Quote back in case you expect a reply!

I've tried the app before, it didn't work, now it does! Thank God, I'm pretty damn happy about this. Bought the pro licence.
When I plug my headphones in however, sound keeps coming out the normal speaker, rather then the headphones. Hmm.

Trust me this is a pure software issue. I had such problems with my device once. Sometimes plugging in and plugging out head phones a few times fixes it as well.
Have you tried going back to stock ?

Hi. I've got an Xperia Z here that I managed to get a good deal on because it doesn't play sound from the loudspeaker. Everything else works absolutely perfect including the headphone port. I've tried putting the board in another z and it still refused to produce sound through that loudspeaker too and another board in this z made it play sound. Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? I know when stuff like that happened psps years ago they had little fuses you could bridge but I can't find any info at all about the z motherboard.
For anyone that's interested it turns out it actually is playing sound but at an extremely low volume level to the stage where you can just barely hear it if you hold it right to your ear.

I installed the official Cyanogen 12.1-20151212-NIGHTLY-yuga on my wifes Xperia Z, when she use the phone and I speak to her the sound from her microphone is a bit crakcing. Not as clean as it was with the original Xperia android version. Also if she use the the big speaker when we talk it is very hard to hear what she is saying.
Also in the big speaker it crackles.
Is there any way to fix this?
