How To Resolve Sony Tipo Echo Problem

Update, Check this link to resolve the tipo echo problem, keep your phone updated to 11.0.a.4.27

Here is the quick update on how to resolve and fix Echo Problem on Sony Tipo Mobile Phone, if you are reading this post, you probably facing a similar Echo problem with Sony Tipo(Single or Dual sim). The echo problem is mostly observed when you make an outgoing calls where the receiver hears his own voice twice(echoed) at his end, this might be unseen and unheard at the callers end(your side), but a lot frustrating at the other end.

I see people screaming about this echo problem on sony discussions forums(talk.sonymobile.com), but as usual sony is irresponsible towards its mistakes. Personally, after a lot of visits to Sony service centre and  several software upgrades and repair options, i tried the following steps to resolve and fix the echo problem on my Tipo.

• First thing i recommend is to remove the mobile cover if you have for your tipo
• Then Reset the Settings--->Backup and Reset--->Settings Reset
• Go to Settings--->Sound, Turn off xLOUD
• Go to Volumes, and set all the three categories to 80%
• Make a Test outgoing call from your mobile and make sure you set your Ear volume to 80% do not let it be on 100% volume.

Make an outgoing call and check if the reciever is able to hear his own voice twice at his end.

As I tuned to the above said settings, i no more have echo problem for my Tipo.Post your comments and experience on sony Tipo Echo Problems using the below comments section.

Update: Sony Identified this as a defect in the Tipo Series and the echo issue will be fixed in the next software update for Tipo, this has been confirmed in the Discussions forum, check here

Seagate Fix All Option Saved Hard Disk From Crashing

Exploring Seagate tools for Windows saved my Hard Drive from crashing and loosing all the data(though it backed it up).About last 15 days I was concerned with My Seagate Hard Drive Model: ST3500418AS, Seagate tools Basic Tests reported ShortDST-Fail error on my Hard Drive.Following is the part of the Error log.

SeaTools Test Code: A1E1CEEA

Further, Seagate asked to run SeaToolsDOS223ALL(Seatools for DOS) which might fix the bad sectors on the drives or asked to return the disk to get a new replacement disk.Thought of giving (Seatools for DOS) a shot, burned the ISO image and started sea tools for windows through DOS, after My drive got detected , I am unable select the drive and perform the tests, Seatools For Dos, just hanged on me and unable to perform any actions and i thought of returning the drive for replacement 

Today morning, just before publishing this post, I had a Self test of the Drive again through Seatools For Windows, ShortDST Failed Again, I saw a option Called Fix All Fast, Fix All Long Option and went through Fix All Short, the Fix All Was successful! Curiously went and ran the Short DST again, Voila..Its unbelievable the Short DST Passed this time , I think the Seagate Fix All Option Fixed all the Bad sectors on My drive and saved the drive from crashing.

Fix All Fast - Pass 5/28/2012 8:51:17 AM

Short DST - Started 5/28/2012 8:59:13 AM
Short DST - Pass 5/28/2012 9:00:14 AM

I Used the version Sea Tools for Windows version 1.2.0.6, Model: ST3500418AS, Firmware Updated to CC49.

Hope you run the Fix All Fast, Fix All Long Options through seagate windows tolls if run through test drive failures.
