[Q] Lost all audio - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since a few days i've lost all audio from device. It doesn't play any ringtone or system sounds at all, native or mp3.
All volume settings are untouched, no silent mode whatsoever.
When i start music player it 'starts' playing, but song time bar (sorry for bad english) doesn't move and no sound is coming out of the device.
Plugging in the headset makes no difference, no sound there either.
When tapping the play/pause button in the player i eventually get a FC for music player and device lags alot for a few minutes.
A video plays, but without sound.
The only sound i have is from speech calls, but switching to speaker doesn't work.
The FM radio works normal (through headset).
My device had CF root, and no custom ROM. I already completely wiped device and flashed stock kernel and stock rom back on it through ODIN but to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Seems your Speaker is gone man

So there's an example of the headset working, but there's also an example of it not. It's not his speaker.
@OP Did you try a complete wipe?

Yes I did completely wipe the device (wiped everything I could possibly wipe when root was still intact through CWM)
No result though

[Q] Sound Died

Hi guys,
Need some help on this.
Current setup
Crdroid 13
Yank kernel 3.1b, sound volume +4
I was having a conversation with my wife using loudspeaker using the extra volume function when suddenly the sound died. After that I can't hear a thing including music, video sound, ringtones and notification tones. I can only hear voice thru the speaker but not thru loudspeaker.
Help me out guys. Is my speaker broken?
Factory reset, flash a stock ROM.
If that doesn't help - replace speaker.

Already mega-wiped, flash a new rom and nothing.
Does this mean the volume hack killed my speaker?
Better not use it next time.
yup, if you push the speaker beyond the limits, this shouldn't be a surprise

Problem with music listening

I`ve a problem with listening to music on my L9. I use Poweramp player. When I set the volume full to show the information about a fact that is not healthy blah blah blah ... and after a few minutes of listening to disconnect the headphones. Plug it in again, I set the volume almost full, and again the same problem. Headphones work fine. In winamp I do not have this problem. How do I fix this?

Ahh, I am guessing English is not your primary language.This may be bad headphones, bad application, or a bad phone. Try another pair of headphones and try the youtube app.

No, it`s not. I tried on other headphones and it is still the same. At maximum volume phone stops see headphones-I do not know how to precisely call it. Just disconnects. On the polish android forum I've seen that not only I have a problem with that, however, no one can find a solution.

AW: Problem with music listening
Headphones should work, also the crappy Headset coming with the phone.
I encountered similar problems with a headset and a multimedia headphone adapter for Symbian phones.

First thing first.....How is built-in LG Music is doing? Is it working fine with speakers and headphones, etc?
Maybe he's talking about the volume limiter? Whenever you plug in something to the headphone jack, it pops up a notice about restricting volume and/or listening to volume at high levels can cause injury. I know that when plugging the L9 into something as a line-out, I have to crank the volume to max AND crank the volume of whatever speaker/device it's attached to.
For comparison, running the same app and music via a bluetooth media device the volume is equal to that of my iPhone. AKA: it sounds "normal." So it's using some sort of volume limiter on the 3.5mm out as far as I can tell, and I haven't been able to find a way around it. Though I haven't been looking too hard.
There´s this auto-volume-down mechanism, which allows to re-up the volume to max afterwards. But also the phone (P760) seems to follow the EU regulation, which is obligatory for toys only. Volume set to max is still not loud enough for me, as with my Nokia phones. But with Poweramp and Music Folder Player you can get a bit of extra juice, which is sufficient to me. For rooted devices there´s an app to directly control the Linux ALSA sound interface, but I won´t need that.

[Q] Noise in the background when playing music after 4.2.2 update

I have a strange problem after 4.2.2 update. When I connect headphones and start playing music or audiobook or anything else via headphones or internal speaker, I hear in the background some kind of silent but constant noise, it is there in the background, always. And its stops abut 2 second after I stop the music. I'm sure it didn't happens in 4.1.1 and started immediately after 4.2.2 update. And it really worries me, because I use this phone mostly for audiobooks... Help? anybody?
I got the same on original music application . Go get poweramp it solved the problem for me

Turning off beats audio pretty much relinquishes audio hiss, otherwise you can try flashing zeroinfinity`s audio mod which apparently also woks on 4.2.2.

So You are trying to tell me that this is normal? I'm sure everything worked fine on 4.1.1
Same issue in poweramp.
ryanjsoo, you're right, turning beats audio off helps a little... but this is ridiculous, beats audio device with hiss in the background when turned on.
I'm on stock right now, custom rom will help?

You can try using an external dac/amp such as a fiio e6, using a custom rom may help, try flashing this mod,make a backup since i cannot guarantee that it will work with 4.2.2 however i have heard of people having success, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231742, otherwise i cannot think of anything else except backing up your apps and contacts, wiping data and flashing stock?, also, not sure if this works but using root explorer, under the directory etc, change all the 48000 ang 48 vales to 44100 and 44.1 in asound and audio_policy to remove any resampling which may destroy quality.

Thank you. I will try to do it, because right now my night sessions with audiobooks become a nightmare. Honestly, whole 4.2.2 update is a one big mistake in my opinion. They gave me hissing sounds, lock screen lags and take away some of my favorite widgets.
Can I downgrade and install viper x based on 4.1.1 via hansontool ?
EDIT: Problem solved. I've done another factory reset, this time with format data. Was getting ready to unlock BL but when I checked audio quality, there is no hissing sound, nor popping now. And general responsiveness is also improved. I don't get this, but it works now

[Q] Strange sound Issue??

Hi everybody! I have some problem with my EVO 3D. Sometimes,(nowdays more offten),when I want to listen some music with headphones,some songs or even entire albums can not be played. There is no any sound...In that moments,even some youtube videos can not be played with sound.But,there is no problem with my other songs, albums or some other youtube videos. After RESTART,everything is back to normal and works fine untill another ''bug'' like before.Without headphones every song sounds good and there is no other problem with the phone.Headphones are also ok... I've tried other headphones,music players,but result was the same. I don't know what else I can do???

did you used any sound booster apps? There are some that can boost your volume up to 200% and destroy your speaker.. and sometimes phone get stuck in headphone mode and thinks that they are plugged in.. anyway you should try factory reset.. if you don't loose data do a root and backup (titanium backup, helium (don't require root) etc..)

I have never tried any booster app. All these problems with sound are started one month after factory reset. (Because of ''few'' bugs) After factory reset,everything was good. And now,I only have this problem. I noticed that I need to restart phone almost every 24 hours if I want to listen all my music and watch all yt videos with sound.I deleted all apps which are connected in some way with sound... I don't know? Maybe I should try some custom ROM?
"Media Converter" app maybe was some problem? I deleted this app and for now (48h) everything is good sound is good and I dont need restart. Maybe this was solution? However,I will post here if I see changes (bad changes) : )

how to unroot phone
earlier i think i am root phone, but i wrong.
Do you know any way to root without unlock bootloader?
when i get it:
hebergeur d image
stefss: I would suggest if you do not know about modding/rooting/unlocking/etc., then stay away from these methods as you may brick your device (unusable). These are for advanced users.
Did you try checking the audio settings (Settings > Sound & Vibration > Audio settings). Try toggling the Mi Sound Enhancer switch (by the way, I observed that turning this switch on reduces the audio quality and changes the tone; better to turn this off).
There could be many reasons why you are hearing a buzzing sound:
1. Your earphone drivers might be slightly damaged. This is the most common reason (I too hear a buzzing sound on my earphones). Try using the same earphones with other devices to confirm if the cause is earphones.
2. Try playing the audio track from Play Music and toggle the equalizer settings. (setting the frequency bars to extreme values is another cause for a buzzing sound). Change media players and again check for the quality.
If you have tried the above and still hear the buzzing sound, then consider exchanging the piece if it is under warranty.
Note: If you try to mod/root/etc. your phone, you will void it's warranty so be careful.
I try with 3 new earphones, everyone is buzzing.
Audio settings is ok. Phone is new, this is reason why i think is good.
Every media player including youtube is buzzing..
But when i put headphones everythink is ok.
