I often listen songs with the minimalist sound at night...I'm experiencing buzzing sound from the speaker when I listen at the lowest sound on PowerAMP. I'm also experiencing it on the stock music player also...Do you guys also having it or just me?
Blown speaker, no buzz here

What do yo mean? :O
Do you hear buzzing when you turn the volume up?
What's the sound quality like with the volume up?
Where is your phone sitting when you are playing music?
Does it sound the same through headphones?

No..it works fine when I turn the volume up...Sound quality is crystal clear when the volume is high...Didn't try with the headphones yet! The buzz sound is so low..I can only hear when I place the speaker just beside my ears.

Probably normal interference sound you are hearing. If you only hear it on low with the phone right at your ear, that seems most likely.
Or..........metal plate in head?
Perhaps at higher volumes the buzzing sound is cancelled out by the music? Get a can of compressed air and give it a blast, there may be a small piece of something rattling around in there (very small).
When you listen at night, is your phone plugged into the charger? If so, you may be hearing switcher noise from the battery charger. Try a different one. Just guessing.

Hi 7Mozart Owners
Does the earphone speaker in the front ( the one above the screen ) , double up as a loud speaker when you put the device in loud speaker ?
Thanks

I don't think so. There is a small speaker on the back which seems to act as the loud speaker.
EDIT: Just checked, the one on the back is the loud speaker.
thanks mate

Hi
If you press and hold on the thin white line while your in the radio application (the line that the frequency numbers sit on in the middle of the screen) then it brings up a menu. One of the options on that is for using the speaker.
Cheers.
Out of curiosity, how is the loud speaker? Can you blast the volume without it getting crackly at all? Is it tinny sounding?

Quite loud and not too tinny. Copes with Lacrymosa by Evanescence reasonably well compared to most phone speakers anyway.
Anyone's incoming call or any notification sound are still coming out from the speakers and not the earphones with the earphones plugged in? I'm with the noise cancelling earphones if that's how it's supposed to be?
All my previous phones mutes the speaker and you hear the ringtones/notifications through the earphones when plugged in

Are you sure you plugged jack properly?
Press it till the end and it'll work.
And no, it's not normal to have sound on speakers and earphones in the same time.

As I understand it, this is a "feature" of Kitkat (If not Jellybean because it did this to me on my GS3). On my GS3 I rooted it and got around the problem but I can't find a way around it on the Z2. There is an app that forces ringtones to headphones but it does not seem to work on the Z2, at least without root. I don't understand why anyone would want this feature. If I am in the library and listening to headphones I don't need my ringtone blasting away. And it is impossible to hear on a crowded bus.

but that's weird when I had my Z1 running on kitkat it doesn't have this problem... isn't it a hardware issue? so this is happening on all Z2? surprised there was no much complaint about this to Sony...
I noticed when pressing a button on this phone and put the speaker to your ear you can hear some noise through the speaker. Like a low hissing sound. Then after a second it stops until you press another button.
Also when playing a YouTube video or game and turn the volume all the way down you hear the same noise. Infact if you run a game and go back to your home screen the noise is there until you quit the app.
The noise can only be heard if you put your ear to the speaker so it's not a major issue I just found it strange and wondered if everyone's is the same?
I just checked and the noise does stop when going back to the home screen from a game. Yesterday when I tested it the noise was still going. Must have been a particular app.
Can somebody check this on the z2 to see if this is normal? Thanks
You have to put your ear to the speaker to hear it, its just a slight hissing sound.
It happens when pressing the home/back/multi tasking buttons or when typing on the keyboard. Basically whenever the phone makes a button press sound and the speakers become active to play the sound
its totaly normal for the hissing sound to exist however some speakers can output the sound alot more easier than others and some you cant hear it at all
its normal for it to be heard from Z2 Unless its very louder than it should be, it should be only noticed using headphone or putting your ear very close to the speaker

Thanks for verifying that Envious, i can only hear it when putting my ear to the speaker. While i am here i might as well get your thoughts on another issue lol There is a thread that's just been posted on here about the bottom speaker being louder then the top speaker. Is this a hardware issue or just the way the phone is designed. Its something i noticed the first day i got the phone.

i actualy dont know
its definatly hardware, i did ask sony Service centre about the issue and since my Z2 is going to be sent for repair ill see if they actualy fix the Bottom speaking being louder than the top one which i did say was a problem and that they will test
it doesnt seem to be an intentional feature since the phone has dual stereo speakers, its anoying listening to music when mostly the audio is one side
Yeah its something i notice when playing games or watching videos. I will try to get a replacement from the retailer and if that fails then i will send it into sony. The vibration sound is definitely too loud on my z2 and i'll get them to check the speaker. :good:
Hi, guys i noticed a clicking popping noise in my left headphone only during music playback and in the middle volume level if it's low i can't hear it would you say it's hardware or software related? Seems like if there is more base in the music i don't hear it as much.

Sounds like a blown speaker in the headphones. Do you have a pair of ear buds you can swop out ? If you don't here it with the ear buds it's hardware.
Hello, I experience distorted sound when using earpiece for calls. It starts from 70-100% volume. At medium or low volume it isn't distorted.
Also, when using speakers for media, theres dust coming out of the earpiece from stereo effect when playing media near max volume.
Does anyone have this?

I am facing the same issue. There is a cracking sound coming whenever I connect an earphone. I have tried multiple earphones but the same thing happens every time.
