I have no problems with clear phase/x loud/ sound

The only bug i encountered is that the music light effect doesn't work always.sometimes it just stays lit up and sometimes it pulses. Other than that, this firmware is completely bugless for me. Another bug i had, was the volume slider bug(black box) but that went away after i flashed the central european firmware.

Bottomline: Loving 4.3. Faster, smoother and far better performance,great wifi. Led music pulse isn't a deal breaker for me

Here. Bravia engine fix
[Xperia SP General] Tomoms:
I didn't understand what happened with Bravia Engine 2. What's the problem? It's working only with videos?
[Xperia SP General] Sadman Khan:
Sony removed the be_album file so there is only bravia engine in "movies"....no bravia engine in "album"
[Xperia SP General] Tomoms:
Ok. I wonder why Sony did such a thing.
[Xperia SP General] pepoluan:
Why is it "really important" for you? AFAIK, Bravia Engine's purpose is to only increase the contrast and saturation of the display, it has no effect on the file proper.

Guys, this morning I didn't hear the alarm clock ringing, first I though I had the phone on mute but I didn't, I put everything on max vol with audiomanager and played a song on walkman and it didn't have sound... a reboot solved the problem but I really hope it doesn't happen again, lucky for me its sunday but on a working day I rely on my phone to get up on time.. has anyone else experienced this?
[Xperia SP General] alirashidi1373:
I guess this topic is related to bugs and no working features of Xperia SP, not improvements and new features :angel:

I faced the same issues but it was due to the cpu being busy for a long time for some reason, it was laggy as hell, but after a restart it was solved.

The issues I have noticed so far:

1. Power button doesn't wake the phone - It actually wakes the phone up but it takes 3,4 seconds to do so, be patient and wait for it to wake :)

2. LED strip lights up during calls - Press the power button to switch off the lights.

3. Dialer and SMS app could be laggy at times. on 4.1 these were much faster :mad:

4. Album app photo transition animation is way slower for my liking. On 4.1 this was faster. :(

Strange problem here with CE FTF .266:

when I plug sony earphones and try to increase volume, it comes a message saying that "due to ear protection" you can`t increase volume more than this". It`s about 50% of total volume. I want to increase it but the phone doesn`t accept.

This only happen with earphones / headphones plugged.

Do you have this problem? Is there a solution? I want to hear my music loud!:crying:

Thank you so much for any help on this.

Hey MATE!

Just to let you know this is a forum for helping people, and this thread is regarding bugs, now when I pressed and held the power button I did not get the screen coming up to shut down the phone, it just locked the screen. (A simple restart cured it btw)

I consider this a bug, hence the reason for posting.

I don't know why people are complaining about the music led pulse bug ?

In my case, when I was on 4.1.2 , music LED didn't pulsate when song is being played on least volume.When the volume was increased to 60%+ then the light in the middle used to lit up. And when maxed out, there you could actually experience pulsation of the LED lights synced with the beats of the song(worked mainly with Electronic Music).

Now, on 4.3 with the new walkman app (which looks horrible, in my opinion) , but the music led pulsate more accurately, even when a guitar solo is being played.

Battery drains faster. And it doesn't last for a day or 2. I don't know why power management show a wrong estimation.

Messages app not responding

On my Xperia SP often the messages app is not responding, when you start it up it freezes or doesn't load any messages. After a while the phone says the app is not responding and asking me to close it or wait a little longer.

Already mentioned it at Sony support, reinstalled whole phone, then they asked me to clear the cache of the messages app and reboot. Still the same problem, now they are asking me to send the phone to a repair centre but I know it's a software issue.

I get this problem not only on stock messages app so this is really frustrating :confused:

I'm trying with small backups (200-300MB), and no one can be done, so someone can try this?

I agree with all the above bugs. I updated my phone (C5302) yesterday.

1. Can't increase the volume more than fifty percent while using the earphones.

2. Developers option is completely off in the settings menu. (No USB Debugging and other options that I used to have)

3. No option to add Music shortcut in Lockscreen.

4. Walkman doesn't display number of songs available in the Tracks (as it used to in previous version).

5. Camera quality gone worse.. (it was way better before).

Can someone please tell me, if we can have the wallpaper displayed in the lockscreen.. (Not the theme based)

Before whatever wallpaper I was using was displayed in the Lockscreen also, but now it is different in lockscreen and it is based on the theme which I have selected.

Please help me on the above mentioned things..

Thanks...
[Xperia SP General] QBerto:
2. Is not a bug, u need to tap 5 times compilation or kernel or baseband (can't remember xD, but when u do it a message appears 'tap 5 more times to be a developer') at settings > about phone to make developer options appears.

3. When u play music (through Walkman), lockscreen widget is showed

4. Is not bug, this is how the new walkman app works, no big deal, I miss 'most played songs' at playlists xD

5. I'm not sure, but I think Superior Auto works better in 4.3, also, I always use manual mode, didn't see difference

lockscreen wallpaper can be changed since 4.1 in Settings > Screen > Lockscreen (the last one option), but in 4.1 if u dont change theme, lockscreen always showed normal wallpaper, now is themed based

The music led pulsation bug is not there on all firmwares. I had tested 3 firmwares - CE , Indonesia and India - C5302. The Indian firmware didn't have this particular bug. Also could tell me how did you contact the Software developing unit of Sony . because I myself would like to report few bugs which are common in the latest firmware such as :-

Battery life has deteriorated and the power management shows a wrong estimated standby and usage time.

RAM Management again is not fixed causing applications to not respond at times.

Camera application needs a bit tuning.

3. Wifi regularly disconnect, and to connect it again manually

4. Ram management very poor than 4.1.2

5. Poor Battery ( but i think because wakelock problem and fast domancy)

6. Auto Brightness not working

7. Profile picture for contact and messaging apps (Myself not changed)
[Xperia SP General] Slimshady903:
Thank you...

It's the build number which needs to be tapped and I got the developers option. :)

And yes you are right.. There is no 'Most played' or 'Recently Added' or 'Never Played' playlists and if we swipe the walkman app to the left using the recent apps, the music stops..

Can we add the music to lockscreen widget just like the camera and turn it one without unlocking the screen?

I've checked the camera using both Superior Auto and Manual Mode... Camera clarity is pathetic on both the modes... Even before taking the pictures the image looks blur and the same quality is what we get after taking the pictures.

Even I feel there's something not right about the messaging app...
[Xperia SP General] Slimshady903:
It didn't work for me... I switched off and turned my mobile again.. Now it's working fine.
