Xperia T Loudspeaker Bug

huggons — Wed, 17 Jul 2013 19:36:41 GMT

I have 2 Xperia T mobiles. One was sent to SBE repair centre for issues with the loudspeaker (amongst many other issues) and they said that they fixed the fault by replacing a “carrier lower frame assembly”. I am a little sceptical!

My other Xperia T has the same issue. I have now found that when the phone is set to silent and whilst on a call, when selecting to activate the loudspeaker, it does not activate. The only way to get it to work is to press on any key on the onscreen keypad, or ensure that the phone is not set to silent mode to be able to get the loudspeaker working in a call.

Can anyone test the following on their Xperia T for me please. The more who can test this the better. I have placed a video on You Tube to demonstrate the issue I am facing.

I most be one of the most unlucky Xperia T owners, as both my mobiles have lots of the same issues, which apparently only affect me!! Hmmm!

The phones have had clean installs using SUS in an attempt to resolve the issues, if indeed software related.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for feedback. From the limited testing I have performed, it seems like the fault is resolved by doing a reset/erase data, but the fault is reintroduced when restoring data with Sony PC Companion or signing into a Google account.

Anyone else able to test. Sony have been unable to replicate the issue.

Also SBE had the handset to fix and said that they yhad resolve the issue as it was a hardware fault. Clearly not!!!

In total without the handset for 49 days, yes 7 weeks waiting for support and a resolution!

Hi Guys,

Got an update on this one. This is a confirmed bug that has now been passed to the back office team at Sony. The bug is introduced by removing the tick from “touch sounds” in settings/sounds.

Give it a try yourself, I imagine it will affect all Xperia T handsets worldwide (no matter what branding), would be nice for conformation of this though.

I noticed this problem, so I searched and when you said about the touch sounds mine was off, and then when I ticked it and I rang someone again I could press and hear the loudspeaker whilst on silent.. Not sure whether this is news or not but it worked for me

Sony UK have confirmed that this bug will not be resolved by any future update.

Is there any fix for this as my loudspeaker is not working due to that tick button on touch sounds?

Hi. Suddenly i had loudspeaker problem. Can´t hear any incoming call. I think the problem comes with restore from app Restore and Backup.

I restore from another point and resolve the problem.

I hope you can help it.

Does that affect JB 4.3.1 ?? Anyone tested? Well, I hate touch sounds and they're always off, but it would be good to know about other issues to test for.. well as long as on silent mode for touching and typing never had issues with loudspeaker.

Hi! When I've upgraded software to 4.3 from 4.1.2 I haven't any sound! Music not working, films too! What I'm supposed to do? What is wrong? When I returned to 4.1.2 everything works fine.
