SBH52 with Z1 doesn't work

[Tepez]

Hi. I bought SBH52 8 months ago and it works good, but today I wanted to listen the music and I couldnt open music by sbh52... I could only play it from Z1 walkman and I couldn't pauze, play and get next or previously music. Why?
I have update Z1 and sbh52 and apps...

Well mine has the same problem but, only after last walkman update... Try restore the factory walkman app if it works, it works for me but I loose the previous walkman app features like, select music from a folder

It doesn't help. SBH52 still don't work good... Radio, buttons, everything is ok but not music from walkman player. I can only press on Z1, to change music or stop/pause music... SBH52 don't work.

I restored the Walkman app to factory default, then installed the previous version I had (Walkman 8.4.A.5.4),

it works fine for me now, just like was before.

I restored previously version too (factory version) and it didn't help...

Try unpair and pair it again (turn off first after unpair), if you know someone with the same phone try it too, maybe it's a faulty SBH52

Hi,
I have the same problem since the last walkman update. All other sbh52 work well (radio, call+log, notification) so I also think that is due to walkman update.
SrPr, How do you choose the version to install after factory restoration ?

[SrPr]

**bleep** I got it from internet since Sony forgets to have it available... Try google xda-developers Walkman 8.4.A.5.4 it will lead to the new walkman version but there's a section with older version, click it to show content.

Yup I'm having the same issue with my Z3 I'm really annoyed with this as i bought the headset so I wouldnt have to keep getting my phone to switch tracks!
