Headset problem

ezhikov — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 07:01:49 GMT

Hello to everyone.

Yesterday i bought new headset and it works fine, but today my sola can't recognize it?

I tried in on few other devices like iPhone, HTC Desire and iriver music player and it works. What is wrong with my sola?

After repaib by PCC headset worked some time, but then, after reconnect, it is not recognizable again. Maybe this is LiveWire Manager issue?

Go to Google Play Store and search for LiveWare manager. If there's a update available, install it and then let me know.

What do you think about this forum? Let us know by doing this short survey.

The problems began with version 3.3.10

I did a factory reset and did not install the update. Currently version 3.1.13 and the headset works.

After reconnecting the headset, it has ceased to be recognized by my phone. Now I'll try to update and write to you what will happen.

Should I wait for your answer, or just throw the phone in the trash and buy a new one?

What is the model of the headset that you bought? Atleast it will help others to avoid that headset if Sola has compatibility issues with it.

Does the standard headset work with your phone?

It would be wise to let one of our authorized service shops have a look at your phone. It seems like a problem with the phone itself if none of the headsets are working. Also, please note that Sony Xperia phones use a different standard for 3.5 connectors and though the jacks looks similar, they may not be compatible, though this is not the case for you since it worked first time around. My iPhone headset does not work with my Sony Xperia Sola but when I connect it using a Extender cable I have for Sony, it works fine.

If headset have compability problem, so why it works sometimes? If it works fine before update, so why it should be hardware issue?

And why Sony Xperia Support doesn't say to me, that I should go to service? Just silence for about a month.

I am searching from last 2 weeks just to confirm what all earphones are supported by my device.

Because online purchase sites dont tell you what statndard the earphones they are selling.

So the question is , how to come to know which one is supported and which one not without buying . Once bought u cant replace them.

Now I have come to know that my Xperia mini st15i supports OMTP (Sony customer support told so and I am convinced by other blogs). I dint know there is another standard called CTIA till I did some research.

Sony customer support didnt tell about CTIA . They also misguided me about A2DP which is bluetooth standard; however I told them beforeI wanna buy wired earphones.

They give distributor/dealers of Sony products number. What the **** do they know about technical issues .Those ask me to go to their Sony centre and he will check with some . He dint confirm whether he will replcae "If the earphones I chose after unpacking wont work" in front him only

Sony customer support centre people also wouldnt help telling specifications of their own products .(Even though I had some choices for which they had to tell just 'Yes' or 'No' : for it would be supported or not)**** it.

I never wasted so much time finding a product . Even its not sure.

I dont wanna buy in hurry and waste earphones.

As SE claims to buy some adapter to make CTIA earphones work , I dont think its good idea because it would wear out soon and there will be some drop at the connection; so you wont get proper music experience

Cell : Sony Ericsson Xperia ST15i mini

Earphones : After so much research seems it only supports OMTP 3.5mm jack

I am very ****** off with Sony , first of all if 3.5 mm is universal why follow some other unique standard.And they dont even help regarding the same
