I just returned home from abroad where I was using a local sim card rather than my own. When I use a different sim card, the settings inevitably get messed up. My phone now won't recognize my headphones after Throw kicks in. What happens is that I can get music to play if I manually stop Throw. As soon as Throw restarts, the music stops playing on my headphones and goes to my external speaker. My phone won't give me the option of disabling Throw. I've tried disabling Smart Connect, disabling the headphone compatibility app, adjusting settings in throw and Smart Connect, and still have gotten nowhere after hours wasted. Losing patience.
I bought an Xperia Z5 yesterday, and everything is working fine apart from my headphones not being recognised at all.
Firstly I tried my decent headphones which have an inline pause button which I've previously used without problem with my old android phone (Nexus 4), and the phone doesn't detect them at all, music still plays fully through the speakers.
I then plugged in an old pair with no inline controls, and they half played the music, (really low volume), with volume still coming out of the speaker.
I looked back at the issues seen on the Z3 and downloaded the soundabout app and tried to force the sound through the headphones, still nothing. I deleted the cache of the smart connect, chose the "music on the go option" and rebooted the phone.
Now I can get music properly through my old rubbish headphones without a button, but still nothing at all through my decent headphones with a button., with or without using the soundabout app.
Is this an issue with the headphone jack that i'll need to send the phone back for repair? Or is it a compatibility issue..(the headphones are "android" headphones so I find this doubtful? The headphones 100% work.
I'm here because I have a problem with my brand new Xperia Z3, it does not detect my headphones (it's the Hyper X Cloud II). It detects other headphones.
It works with SoundAbout, but it's a pain to have the notification "hey buy me" everytime I switch on the headphones and it's a pain just to have to switch to listen to music.
That's why I'm here to ask you, is there a fix for this or not ? (I'm under Android 5.1.1, more precisely 23.4.A.1.232 and my phone is a D6603).
I was excited to receive my e-mail yesterday regarding my available Lollipop Z2 update availability. Sat down, opened PC Companion on my Windows 7 laptop, made a backup for settings (no photos or apps), and then proceeded to receive the update.
PC Companion asked me to keep phone disconnected and that it would notify me when to connect (nice too)...
I started the download, but apparently the laptop went into sleep mode (not plugged to wall), which was another reason not to have phone connected (battery drain due to Z2 charging until 100%)
The rest is blurry, but when I woke the laptop up, it stopped downloading at 51% and kept extending the duration timer.
Proceeded to restart the laptop, but when I attempted to connect the phone... nothing. It charges fine, but is never detected by laptop. The Wireless Media Transfer option was still working, but it would refuse to download Update (as if USB connection was needed). Tried installing on another PC (with admin priviledges) and no go.
Phone never started update... works perfectly with that exception. MTP, MSC, USB Debugging, nothing works). Helium doesn't work. Nothing!!!
The Lollipop update was not destructive (no erasing of phone data), but it seems that I will probably need to reset phone.

Xperia Z3 just came back from repairs, apparently they did software upgrades and replaced a hard drive, now its not reading my memory card. It was fine before the repair though.
I have a problem with my PC Companion (2.10.079) which was installed on 8-6-12 in my computer, I has used it many times but never had any virus problem till 28-08-12, The K7 anti virus on the system says PASSWORD STEALER 003d48a91 found when i opened the application on 28-08-12. I had the program uninstalled and again downloaded PC Companion (2.10.094) from the SONY website on 28-08-12.Again the same virus was detected and was removed. I had tried this twice but the result was same.
on sd card settings screen it shows sd card available space but when i try to do something that requires sd card phone keeps saying "sd card not detected"
My Xperia Mini Pro [SK17i] is not detected by PC Companion under both Windows XP & Seven. The device works fine in Mass Storage Mode, so the connectivity cable & ports are alright. Then I tried with the 'Device Manager' Updating, Uninstalling & Reinstalling & even changing the ports. The device still fail to start in MTP Mode as the Windows 7 would say.
I've started using the handset since last 3 weeks. It currently has software up to date (Android 2.3.4 build 4.0.2.A.0.42). Eveything was ok with this handset until last night. I've removed the SIM card and put it back and restart. It doesn't detect the sim card anymore. I've tried the SIM card with another handset. It workes fine. Also I've tried another SIM card with RAY. it doesn't detect the other SIM card either.CI
My phone does not load, and gets stuck at the Sony Ericsson loading screen. Have tried to 'repair my phone' using PC Suite, however my phone is not detected at all by 3 different computers, and is preventing me from repairing. Phone appears to go into flash mode, black screen with green light after connecting while holding back button, but tries to boot a minute later (and failing to do so). Have tried multiple computers, installing/unintalling PC suite, SEUS, safe mode, windows xp (32 and 64 bit), win 7. Tried hard reset that I read about (start phone holding menu, back and power buttons) to no avail. Have tried 3 different usb cables. Why my computer cannot detect my phone? It seems bricked
Phone was updated recently to Android 2.1, now the home WiFi network is not being detected by the phone now, all other devices are detecting this home network except my SE x10 mini/pro, tried to follow all troubleshooting points mentioned on the website but of no use now, repaired it about 2-3 times via web but not of no use...
I bought my Xperia NEO few days back and m having Wifi connection problem. My mobile detects a network properly but when I connect, it shows status Conecting, then it switches to Scanning and in the end shows Disconnected. I've tried it on several hot spots but to no avail. Whether it is sensor problem or some software issue or what shall I do.
A little while ago my battery ran out on my Xperia Play and nothing has really worked since then.
1. Backlight does not work, at all. 2. The phone does not detect the battery (though I am able to charge it). I have that 'no battery' indicator on the top of my screen at all times. I have bought a new battery, no change. If I keep it plugged in with/without battery nothing changes. 3. Screen is really laggy now. I have to try to swipe the screen like 18 times before it actually goes through and unlocks. When I try to type, the keys I press get held so all sorts of funny accents are all over the place.
Its not usable currently. If I use the arrow keys to navigate the menus, it works fine. When I tried to take the phone apart I managed to break the LCD screen. Replaced that and now I'm back where I started. Anything I can do? Replace the digitizer?
My phone rings, gets message notifications etc all normally. The problem I have is when I watch videos or want listen to music and play games etc, I get no sound unless I use headphones.
Is there a way to have the ringtone or notification sounds come through the headphones while listening to music? I know the music gets interrupted but it would be nice if it just rang in the headphones.
My xperia ray has good sound quality on the external speaker regarding hights. Female voices for example sound fine. But on a good headphone (i use the beyerdynamic DTX 101 IE and tried others) heights quality is sub-par. Now i am wondering, did Sony use bad hardware here or bad software? Is there any chance this can be fixed with an update?I really like the phone but this bothers me a bit especially as the phone plainly has the technology to recreate the sound adequately (the speaker works fine).
I have beats solo HD headphones (about 3 years old) and have purchased sony Xperia z2 few months ago. Why does sony not recognize the headphones when I connect it? Is it problem with sony itself or the beats? I think it's generally android problem, since it does connect to samsung s4, but doesn't connect to relatively old htc phone and my Xperia.
