[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jrcbandit:
I tried a phone call and the volume seems really low even at max volume. Anyone else have that issue?

Also, what about using simultaneous voice and data - does it require an update to work?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] INCREMENTAL:
I seen some other people say that voice and data didn't work together. Are u kidding me? My old Note 2, Droid 4 and HTC One Max all had data while talking on the phone.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] droidkevlar:
I too noticed low call volume. Boss got the phone same time I did and he says the same. Tried the trick of holding down volume to all the way low and then raising it and that still didnt fix it.

Loving the phone, but if I cant hear people unless its dead quiet, thats no good.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Xfvalveking:
Speaker problems

I just picked up the 64gb! I love the phone...a lot! I notice the low volume on calls as well, but I think there is something more going on.

The speaker sounds absolutely horrible. There is no way this thing isn't defective. It sounds like an old speaker with a busted cone that makes the "tingy" noise. :crying: Just curious if anyone else is having this problem. I listened to the one in the store, but it was very noisy in there. I couldn't get a good gauge. I am going to go back and see what is up. These things happen, I just hope that is what it is. I powered up my Razr Maxx again and listened to see. It sounded great. Please be defective!!!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Juliann826:
I noticed this too, my speaker sounded pretty "fuzzy". Haven't had much time to listen to the speaker.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] civiksi:
I didn't call anyone yet but I tested a movie and it sounded great coming from an s4
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jrcbandit:
I fixed my problem. Turn off the stupid equalizer for the phone speaker. Much louder for everything.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] droidkevlar:
And how to do this?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] lloydapalooza:
It's somewhere under the sound settings.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] jrcbandit:
Yeah in the sound settings under Audio Effects.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] theexec777:
It seems the call sound is coming from the upper right speaker not the whole speaker strip. I find it a bit loader with my ear closer to the top right corner. Seems a bit silly and i could be wrong but feels this way for me.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] joderme:
I agree - I think the sound is very low.

This is compared to a Galaxy S5 which I could basically set down, not use speakerphone, and still hear.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] buonodev:
I'm also experiencing low volume in calls. It's bad enough that I'm tempted to return the phone. I've owned many smart phones and have never experienced this.

The only "workaround" that I've found is to hold the phone in an unnatural position slightly away from my ear and with my ear at the top corner of the phone, and even then the volume is still too low. Totally unacceptable. Did they never make a phone call during testing?? I hope this can somehow be addresses via a software update asap.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] LeoLopezDO:
I'm thinking this can be solved by a software update. I agree though, the volume is quite concerning.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] PerCompLLC:
If we had root it would probably just be a build.prop edit... Oh well.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] LeoLopezDO:
I'll be waiting for one or the other
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] droidkevlar:
So if I'm on BT and switch to speaker on phone instead of talking through the car, the speaker on the phone is super loud, nor van be turned down. Anyone else notice this?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] civiksi:
You're right. Seems weird that its not in the middle but its fine if you put your ear to that corner
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] pfroo40:
There are little notches on the left and right side of the grill, my suspicion is that there are "stereo" speakers with one located above each notch. They may also have the audio configured to split volume between the two speakers.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] ABRMess006:
Each call I have had was on speaker phone, and the call quality for me was MUCH better than my G2 and much louder. I took a call today and did not use speaker, I too noticed at first that the call volume was extremely low, I was clicking the volume up constantly and no change. Finally I moved the phone around a bit on my ear until I found the sweet spot.

It seems the call comes from the side, possibly one of the stereo speakers, I believe I remember having to hold the phone on the right side to my ear to get the best volume. It is plenty loud though, just move it around a bit and you will figure it out! Hope this helps!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] -magnum-:
i have a s5 from work and it blows this thing out of the water on speaker and off speaker. I can barely hear people some times. Definitely disappointed with the call volume so far, I had a droid razr maxx and never had these issues.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] bosanci28:
Hmm, have the same problem, can't hear people , low volume , people from the end of the line they say they barely hear me, noise on the line! what is this!... have 10 days more to go ,to the 14 to return! hope i don't have to return and get the note4, wanted a smaller phone than note2 , but....
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Csetoue:
Having exactly the same problem here.

Thinking about returning it just because of the loudspeaker. Totally sucks.

Already tried other units twice. All of them sounds bad.
[Localization] barban:
Hi all,

I recently developed a very useful App: Fast Callback Free.

You can found details about it here

My App is already localized in English and Italian (my mother tongue) and I would like to add also other languages (e.g. spanish, portuguese, german, greek, russian, persian, etc.).

I will appreciate very much if you can help me to translate it in your mother tongue: I can add your name to the contributors' list or I can translate your app in Italian.

Please find strings.xml attached (it consists in only 40 strings) and the Google Play's description to be translated below.

To help in translating in your own language: http://barban.oneskyapp.com

Thank you.

===

DESCRIPTION

How many times in a day you refuse an incoming call from your relatives or your friends just to call them back? This is a very common task when you wish to take advantage of a more convenient mobile phone contract or just let your contacts not to pay when they call you.

When you receive a call this App shows an overlay button that let you refuse the call and immediately call your contact back; everything just by tapping one button! You can choose for which contacts the call-back function is available as well as the button's style, size and position in order to let the overlay button fit perfectly with respect to the screen which is shown by your smartphone when you receive a call.

This is the FREE version of the Callback App: it may display Ad at the end of the call started by the call-back function. If you wish, buy the Callback App for avoiding Ads.

Re-rooted and unlocked bootloader after installing the latest update. Had to reinstall some apps including harmon kardon. Lowered the max/min cpu setting. Froze some bloatware and the phone is running like a champ. Currently at 62% battery life since 7am est. Been on Pandora normal IG & Facebook activity. I have no regrets from purchasing this phone. Cheers...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] akbisw:
Are you s off? Cause there dies not seem to be a way to root without it
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
That is definitely not the case! You absolutely do not need s-off to root your device. All you need to successfully root is the proper files, custom recovery, as well as an unlocked bootloader.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Alvee123:
Can you give me a link to root the m8? I'm on the 4.4.4 stock everything
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
You need to unlock your device then flash the correct superuser package through custom recovery
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Alvee123:
So i have to get s-off correct? Im just confused because i have 4.4.4 thought i couldnt root or get s off.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
S-off has absolutely nothing to do with root or unlocking, two completely different things. I never said anything about s off (other then saying you don't need it for root). I said unlock your bootloader, flash custom recovery and flash the su zip. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of what s off, unlocking and even root is it seems. BTW you can absolutely still s off if you want. It cost 25 bucks.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] shiftf7:
All you need to do is unlock your bootloader and throw in a custom recovery. You don't need s-off at all. Just go here to unlock your bootloader:

And then flash TWRP and SuperSU and you're good to go.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
Hello everyone. New Z2 owner here, long history with android though! I tried searching around but found a little bit of information before posting. I have a D6503, build number 17.1.2.A.0.214 (ATT USA) and i cant seem to figure out what broke my playstation app. When i first opened the phone yesterday everything worked well, this morning i unlocked bootloader (didnt back up my TA keys im such an idiot) and that was successful. Really wish i did more research on backing up my DRM keys, first sony phone and lesson learned.

I didn't flash a rom, nor do i have root and still giving me an error when trying to sign in over and over. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, even factory flashed a tf file like it just came out the box. What could be wrong? I know once you unlock bootloader you lose DRM keys, but did unlocked break my playstation app? Any helped would be appreciated.

i have xperia z2 and i have also unlocked bootloader my DRM keys lost forever,

im having exactly the same issue, justthatmy app was working 4 weeks ago with no problems, and by that time my bootloader was already open so maybe its not an error related to the DRM keys, still i dont know why doesnt allow me to sign in on my Z2 :(

does anyone solved it?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king demon:
same thing happen to me

and error C-80F80A01 on remote play :(:(
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
Same errors here, ive tried asking if its related to drm but didnt get a response, uninstalling updates for playstation app from the play store will make it work, not getting anywhere with remote play tho, i think drm keys may have been added with new version because i dont see many people complaining that its not working, the few who have complained have unlocked bootloaders and Z3 forums have remote play confirmed broke if bootloader unlocked.

However if this is the case then i cannot understand how people have it ported and running on non sony phones....... for the record i cant get the port working either

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
Well after a long chat with sony chat support, i didnt get a straight answer but it would appear that remote play is broken due to loss of drm keys, on that note anyone want to swap a bootloader unlocked z2 (with no ta backup) for an unlockable z2? lol
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattJaO3D:
I'm locked bootloader, and had trouble, as soon as I deleted super su app, ps4 remote play worked again
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
Unlocked bootloader means Playstation services broken. Being punished for wanting to unlock my phone and customize it. Will never buy another sony phone. Bought this phone for remote play and I now can't use it.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ado000178:
so disappointed

As they said, now that we have the update we cant use rem play such a bull****, so i think its not sony fault bro its ours for not backing up that frickin TA stupid folder so were pretty much f####k up by our own actions, damm!! In so stupid!! Ok i give up... im selling this phone and gettin a new z2! Since price came down...i aint getting z3 cause desin its a downgrade to me with that stupid notification led... No thanks im getting brand new z2 with a ta folder intact!! Lesson learned!!!

No worries, i have it installed now but hasnt made xreality work, so im doubtful but ya never know
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
yeah im already looking to sell my phone to be honest. Bought it for remote play, that feature is probably lost for me forever. On the hunt for another good phone.

Had the Nexus 5, M8, M7, OnePlus One, Lg G3 all this year lol. Guess my hunt continues for the perfect device. This sony came really close but sony immediately lost my attention with the DRM keys bull.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
Considering the same to be honest, cant say i got this phone because of remote play (got it back in april) i was gonna get an xperia anyway, but went for the z2 mostly in case of any compatibility with my ps4, wasnt possible to root and backup when i unlocked, but the playstation app and all my other worked fine after unlocking, 6 months with a great phone then bam, cant use my usual playstation app or new remote play, wouldn't have unlocked if i knew that was gonna happen, worst part is, about 2 weeks after i unlocked someone discovered a way to root n backup first, grrrrrrrr

On the plus side, im not a devoloper or anything, but i tried loads of methods of getting some kind of temp root access to pull that TA file back then, that mod, while not making anything work, it has created a folder on my phone that i havent seen since may......
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manemzjum:
Im on the same page i was only putting up with the annoying low low notification bug because we were getting remote play etc.

Now i have no reason to keep this device looking to get the G3

How did you find the G3 Kennypow3rs
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
Sony broke remote play on purpose, they just launched the Z3, thats one of the only features people would actually buy a sony phone to be honest. Sony knows this. If they allowed all over phones to access remote play then they'd never sell any phones. I get it, but it still sucks. Remote play is gone for now. No way unless a dev cooks up a way to make it work without DRM keys. Im sure, then even sony predicted that so they have ways of locking it out. In a nutshell they punished you for unlocking, you paid the price now buy a Z3 they said.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ado000178:
dude you just described my feeling....

yeap! back then i just wanted the sound mod from olokos in my phone but have working both of my speakers in a call caused trouble to the person in the other side havin hard time listening my voice so i ended up uninstalling the mood and relocking with flashtool, result= TA forlder gone and all for nothing. sell it before it gets too DAmm cheap!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
The G3 was the perfect phone ive used to date minus the screen.If LG would have only included a 1080p screen instead of a QHD 2k screen, it would have been 10/10. The screen just drains too much battery and not needed yet in technology for phones. It really drains the battery so much. I would say pass on it. Also there is zero development to be honest. Get a Nexus 6 or something else. All those phones ive listed id say pass on and wait for something better.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] numskull:
Only problem is, it is on other phones. The port of remote play runs on galaxy s4, note3 some htc devices, its unlocked and rooted sony devices its not working on
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manemzjum:
I'm really drawn to the G3 so given what you've described here if I just added an extended battery or just carried a spare sounds ideal

I must admit the Z2 has been quite impressive with battery life I can from note 3 which was/is a superb device I swapped to Z2 just for a change the numerous problems ha email just put me off

Notifications

The fact I can see the digitizer touch panel points on the screen

Now block psn app and remote play

In don't find the touch screen as responsive/accurate as other devices

Got someone looking for a straight trade for G3 so may take them up on it
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
I won't say the G3 is a bad phone cause its not. It's the closest phone I've used to date to being almost perfect. Removable battery, Excellent camera, laser focus, and card slot, 3gb it's a beast. Just wish it had 1080p screen lol.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejezroolz:
It's Ridiculous

I don't know if there is a solution at this moment, but it's ridiculous, i unlocked my Z2's bootloader and i cannot use this f***ed app, i also have a samsung galaxy tab 2 with cyanogenmod and guess what? i can use the same app...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kennypow3rs:
Unlocking the bootloader definitely breaks Playstation app and remote play. I know this because I gave my wife the Z2 I unlocked and bought a new one. Remote play and Playstation app work flawlessly now lol.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan.langridge88:
I can understand Sony not wanting us to develop their apps and specs rather than androids, fair enough but then why can we not have full access when back to stock rom with lpcked bootloader (as I am now) and just disable their services on custom roms. And also they make out they're so helpful having their boot unlocker too, so why couldn't w ithin that tool give u an option to back drm keys up??

Hi, I've been using this ROM for a few weeks with almost no issues to report (other than broken bluetooth audio) up until 10/21. I tried updating to 10/29 and it freezes up the tablet within a couple of minutes of booting. I suspect it has something to do with SuperSU since I've had issues with it from day one, but I can't tell for sure. Maybe it has to do with the new compiler?

Oh, and yes, I did try a full wipe. I must have tried updating at least 10 times already. Does anyone have a tip that could help me out? TIA :good:

I finished most of the setup and rebooted. Now I'm stuck on the multirom "Booting..." screen.

This has been happening pretty often lately. Sometimes it's stuck there for 5 mins. before the boot animation takes over. Not sure as to why.
