z3 actual call volume after lollipop upgrade.

since my phone upgraded to lollipop the other day my phone speakers actual call volume is so quiet I can't hear anybody, making my phone uaeless to receive calls, yes the side volume is on full . Yet if I play an Mp3 its as loud ad it use to be via kitkat, notifications are ok too as well as the ringtone. Its just the actual call volume which isnow useless unless you're in a month sound proof room.

Anyone know how to fix or if I can roll back to kitkat.

Cheers

Headset volune and miceophone earphones are ok. Just using the z3 upto your ear totally useless.

I loved z3 under kitkat.

@foom2 look at www.xperiablog.net for guide how to do that.Also you click on the LOLLIPOP firmware for your region or carrier on xperiafirm and the KitKat firmware appears underneath in the top right hand corner

I have exactly the same problem! When I go to choose a Ringtone in settings it's so loud abs audible, bit after setting the Ringtone when I recieve a call it's pathetic, very very low.please fix this bug, I don't know what was so thinking when they screwed up the basic function of the phone which is communication.

You don't have to root your phone to downgrade
