speakr stop to work calling but youtube works fine - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since I bought the z3c speaker was very low, but after one year and a half it became more and more lower, now still it's working playing music or youtube, alarm .... but when I call stops to work and I can not lisenting nothing persons can ear to me., sometimes they tell me that they lisent to me with a buggy sound
Other thing I feel was that headphones seems sound lower now as well.
Using *#*#7378423#*#* I look for test service and speakers and speaker right works with a low sound but works, but when I try left speaker does not work.
Has z3c left and right speaker? why on hell works on youtube but calling stops to work, maybe is the speaker?
I have tried differents roms, open bootloader and change kernel but still happens.
I'm thinking about to buy speaker and change it, Do you think is speaker problem? I saw loud speaker and ear speaker what is diference? maybe I should change both and mic phone ass well and is anyone speaker louder thand others?
Thank you

Anyone knows a good speakers for z3c or seller is phone parts? I saw on eBay and alien a lot of cheaper speakers, about 2€, I don't trust their speakers are original like they claim.
Any help please, anyone change the speakers?

X1 has 3 Speakers !??

Hey Guys
I found out something interesting. I downloaded this freeware audio routing software for using the earpiece for sip softwares like skype which normally send their autput audio through the loudspeaker and not the normal speaker for calls.
http://www.teksoftco.com/storage/download.php?product=audioroute_ppc
now the interesting thing is that this software has 3 possible speaker choices
one is the internal the other the external and speakerphone that when is activated u hear music from xperia in a greeat quality and really high volume. It sound like stereo speakers. I am really wondering how many speakers has xperia? and why normally the music doesnt come out like this but in a very low quality. ???
suggestions welcome

Most likely two...the ear piece speaker and the speaker phone speaker.
I don't think there's an internal speaker like on the Ipod Nano.
so, your'e saying that you found a way to enhance the inside speaker??
Cool !
For as far as i heard, there is a mono speaker built in, and there where plans to make it stereo..
I just gave this a try, it does produce sound from the ear piece speaker on one of the settings and while it is a much better quality sound it is far too quiet to make a difference or to listen to, you actually need to put the phone to your ear to hear it.
Shame, I was hoping it would flesh out the poor sounding loudspeaker
This guy didn't find 3 speakers.

I also had my xperia taken apart and couldn't see any other speakers. you can't always trust a software. if its programmed to say there are three speakers it will say there are three. also you have to look with which phones it is compatible

ok now try this
leave a song playing and from the software change from earpiece to speaker phone (The order is VERY important) so first put the audio to play in ur earpiece(first icon) then put it into the speakerphone (last icon) and u will hear a very loud music in a good quality. then if u change to the second icon u will hear the normal very low quality.
there is a huuuge difference

Ok, will give it a try later, so in theory it will be playing from both the ear piece and the loudspeaker, with the ear piece giving it a bit more oomph.
Will this work with the ring tone too???
This could be the final piece of the puzzle to make my Xperia perfect
Not true.
Not true.

Ok that does it ...
The first thing when i get home is to make a video and upload it on youtube ... till later
this app is very bad...can't shut it down, speaker on and stuck there.
edit: okay, to shut it down you have to press the first icon and the little bar below is for moving it around.
the last icon did play with both speakers on. there is no 3rd speaker. first icon for the earpiece, second icon for speakerphone, and last icon for both. IT DOESN'T MAKE A BIG DIFF. Can you hear the earpiece loud? NO...

Strange ... for me it does ... but u have to pass from the earpiece (first icon) to the last icon ... and another icon will appear telling that speakerphone is ON and during this time the music is really much louder and in a much better quality.
like i said...the last icon is playing with both earpiece and speaker on. that's it.
Would the incall volume of the ear piece speaker make a difference...mind is set to the lowest so maybe when the sound is played through the ear piece that's why it's quiet.
What incall volume are you guys phones set too
carefull, you can burst your earpiece speaker with this.

hmm actually i dont think so ... because the higher volume doesnt come from the earpiece but from the normal output sound... only that is amplified and much better quality

Agreed, but there are only two speakers. Earpiece and mono loudspeaker.
The HTC Touch Pro2 has 3 speakers.
actually im thinking there might be three ... the one which is mono might have 2 speakers inside one low quality for music and ringtones and another good quality for loudspeaker during calls ... and is activated only when using loudspeaker during a call ... (u will see the same icon and notification that speakerphone is active)
but i really like the sound ... is like my laptop

[Q] Top speaker louder than bottom

Listening to music and noticed the top speaker is significantly louder than the bottom. Has anyone else experienced this? Im currently on Pure Shamu 2.6 and am going to restore back to stock to see if that might be the issue, just wanted to see if it might just be my unit.
me as well, looked it up and found your thread
I have noticed that also.
Hi, could everyone that has the nexus 6 with the top speaker that is louder, put there ring tone volume on 100 or 75 and play your ring tones and confirm if you have some distortion with some of the ring tones, kind of sounds like a blown speaker, a raddle like sound, and also make a speaker phone call to see if you hear it as well, don't really hear it when playing music, just on rings and speaker phone at a higher volume
I think I've narrowed it down to Viper sound. I reflashed back to stock and the speakers worked normally. Then i reflashed pure rom and speakers still worked. Gonna test on my next to be sure.
Well I'm on a stock ROM since I bought this phone and I noticed that the top speaker plays louder. It's a bit annoying because I'm the kind of perfectionist person...

Speaker Sound quality issue and how to fix

Hello, i've bought this phone and i notice the speakers distort in some frequency (i don't know which) it's not like a very used speaker, it's like high pitched sound getting distorted by too much volume and getting into your ears.
I tried to setup the sound settings, but i don't any major difference.
Someone can give me some tips and a recommended setup for audio settings, like using a modified equalizer, and use or no use the other settings.
Sorry for my bad english, is also time to go bed so i'm not trying too hard to write properly
Thank you
The speaker on mine works fine. Really loud and clear, no distortion. Check to see if your phone's speakers are calibrated. Access the service test menu by dialing *#*#SERVICE#*#*# then go to test, then under speaker calibration. It should say "CALIBRATED".
I can't put words in the dialer.
After some researching, and testing myself, i think sim tray has something to do with it.
If i extract the sim tray, i notice an improve in the sound output, idk what is wrong, still don't like these speakers lack of bass compare to mate 9/10 pro in house, but is rich in details.
So anyone at some point want to share the experience with the phone, i'd like to read it, thank you

Yep, you can't put words in the dialer, which is why you convert them to numbers. *#*#SERVICE#*#* would be #*#*7378423#*#*.
Like I said in my previous post, the speakers are really loud and clear. I don't have the Mate 9 or 10 so I can't compare, but I agree that it does lack on bass, even with equalizer adjusted. If you'd want a lot of bass, I suggest just getting a portable speaker or something.
Today i keep testing, definitively without the sim tray, sound doesn't distort, it doesn't mean is perfect, but good enough.
I'll keep testing today if there is some pattern apart from this, i'm not saying everyphone have the problem, i'm just telling you my personal experience.
Hi, my model distorts sounds at higher volumes too. The top speaker sound definitely worse than the bottom.one. My speakers are CALIBRATED into the service menu and also i noticed no difference when pulling out the sim tray. A ny solutions? Or, i.ll just have to livie with the fact that i have a deffective unit...
Ok, i found the problem. At least for me. The speakers weren.t clean. When dust/drops of water enter near the speakers, the sound gets distorted.
No its not dirt in speaker problem, Xperia xz2 had same issue. And xperia xz3 has same chipset and lot of simular stuf like xz2. So it has same problem. Lot of users of xz3 have that speaker problem. Crackling sound when play media also over bluetooth speaker ect. Also people with xz2 send phone for repair or replacment and problem would stay on new device or replaced speaker. Think its a bug that sony cant fix. Maby if someone have rooted xz3 so he can send catlog we would know more and ask some dev for fix.
Nope, I have my XZ3 and no issue with speakers. True when they get dirty they start to distort but I solve that by playing music loud while my phone is put on its screen to take out the dirt gathered in the speakers (I don't recommend cleaning by any other method. Speakers should never be touched by any object in any phone especially the front). For Bluetooth, I have Sony SBH56 and it works fine. Speakers are clear. I even tested again in many modes. First making call while in my Bluetooth earphones no issue. Second, I tested making a call over Bluetooth but using XZ3's front earphone still nothing strange I can hear the call clear with no issue. Finally, I make the call over Bluetooth but this time using XZ3's loudspeakers and still no issue. I only had an issue a long time ago when I put an sd card my speakers start producing crackling and distorted sound over +70% volume, then I took out SIM tray and then tested again. The speakers returned to work normally. I put back the SIM tray with no sd card and speakers were still working just fine, so I thought maybe my unit has an issue with SD card module idk. I tested a different SD card and the speakers were still working clear until now. I can't stand speakers being too quite or crackling that's why I keep my speakers clean. XZ3 is IP68 certified, so its speakers really have only those two holes to let the sound out. It makes full sense if speakers start distorting if they get dirty.
If you must know the sd card I used that caused my issue was from Kingston while the one I am using now is from Samsung Evo+ 256GB.
What is your model- ‎H8416, H9436, H9493, SO-01L, SOV39....? Because H8416, H9436 have that problem.
And btw. nobody ask if you have or dont have this problem, We ask for solution.

Stereo Speakers

Does the V40 have stereo speakers?
I've seen some reviews that say both yes and no. LG's website shows a sound wave graphic coming out of both the top speaker and the bottom. The leaks prior to it's release said that it does. So I'm very confused as to whether or not it has stereo speakers.
Only one speaker!
https://youtu.be/CNZbqOTaTV8
Just one speaker ... but damn is it a powerhouse!
In the graphic you speak of, I see where they can 'cheat' the idea that the sound is coming from all over - but only after having the phone, turning up the volume while holding it as the whole phone vibrates with sound. Put it on a hard surface and the sound is amplified even more. Put the speaker side up to the back of a countertop and the sound is not only loud, it comes at you from all angles.
I get needing stereo if you hold the phone up close ... but with this phone, anything further away than 3 to 4 feet and only the finest of audiophiles will be able to tell the difference from the V40 to any other phone with stereo ... after 6 feet no one will know stereo from the V40 but everyone will appreciate the volume it can pump out.
Nope but it does sound like a little sound comes through the boom box is so loud but I say no!
Both speakers work
I've tried to very carefull listen
Fill buttom firing speaker & give it to full sound then u can realized
Ok now I give u an example
Accidentally my phone dropped & met an accident
So back panel damaged
When trying to play songs I've noticed that front speaker working not button. When visit to service Center tha guy found that button speaker connection broken then install a new speaker..
That's why I know both speakers are working.

Does the top and bottom speaker sound different to you?

Hello! I noticed the bottom speaker sounds a bit louder than the top one, specially with higher frequencies. Is this specific to my unit or is this due do a difference between the speakers in this phone? Anyone can relate?

Be aware that stereo signals might affect your perception of them. Try turning on mono audio in accessibility settings.
As far as physical differences go, they are indeed different in size. You can see it here:
?t=6m1s
After 2 weeks of owning this phone, I just noticed it now. Bottom speaker does sound louder than a top speaker. So disappointed to find out that both speakers aren't equal I bought this phone mainly for front stereo speakers.
I think Top speaker is an earphone doubling as speaker. Bottom speaker is a dedicated speaker.
I noticed something strange. After turned off the phone for a few minutes and then turn it back on, now both speakers sound balanced just like when i just got the phone and had not noticed this issue until now. Please try turning off the phone, not restart.

Software problem
Not hardware
Speakers hardware are great
I hope Asus releases updates that allows user to adjust the balance of stereo. I think it's also the stereo frequencies in each content. some music, video, and games are noticeably louder on bottom speaker, and some are louder on top speaker.
I just turn on mono audio when the speakers are in use. The stereo separation doesn't work well enough for me, and it just sounds fuller.
I'm also aware that the phone has 2 vibration motors, but I noticed the vibration is much stronger at the bottom, anyone noticed this?

I can definitely relate to this. But overall, I'm very satisfied with the quality of the speakers.
Do y'all have your bottom speaker blown out or distorted?
guys Ive owned several stereo phones before and almost all of them sound differently, you just need to turn on Mono audio as other's have mentioned too.
this phone has great speakers, reminds me of my HTC 820 boomsound speaker which were pretty loud back in the day, but this is loud and clear!
Bottom Speaker sounds louder
@Mike845 Thanks for posting this issue as I am also facing the same issue. I am skeptical as this being a hardware issue because I saw jerryrigeverything's video on YouTube and top speaker is indeed smaller than the bottom one.
I want to know that are the top bottom speaker should be of same intensity or is there a problem with my unit. Also if buttom speakers are loud than top one and there is no issue then I am very angry with Asus as one of the reason for buying this phone was dual front firing stereo speakers.
For all the other folks, I request you to check your device for this issue(balance) using this link youtu.be/2ZrWHtvSog4 . Here you'll get perfect idea if speakers are balanced or not.
Please help me so that I know that if this is an issue.

Yes at high volume bottom speaker does sound distorted.
Tweak for balancing speaker audio
Okay, first of all switch off and reboot (not restart) your phone.
Then go to AudioWizard, switch to normal mode if not already then don't exceed the volume beyond 10 notch. Now check, speakers would be balanced and clear.
It becomes unbalanced only after 10 notches where only bottom speakers volume gets increased and not top. Also beyond 10 there could be distortion in bottom speaker.
Hope it helps.
Also in Asus ROG Phone III
It is on Asus Rog Phone 3 too, very disappointed. With black crush issue.

I don't know how YouTubers are saying that Rog has got the best display ever, paid reviews probably. These YouTubers are taking people for granted.
Asus's image processing is just ****, black crush, red tint and what not.
I don't know why I went with this when OnePlus 7 pro was equally priced. Regretting my decision.
