I have been having some trouble with the sound on my HTC EVO 3D. Recently I noticed that even with the Volume pulled all the way up, the phone's exterior speaker doesn't make any noise at all. This includes the clicking sound from my Swype keyboard, the Music app, everything. The only time I seem to hear sound is during a phone call, but only in regular non-speakerphone mode. I tried switching to speakerphone during one of my conversations, and it essentially just muted the person's voice.
I rebooted my phone a few times, and I noticed the sound DID come back, but only temporarily as the phone muted again within minutes. I thought it might be a hardware problem, until I noticed that when I have my phone plugged in to charge the sound works fine. Then when I unplug, the problem returns. Does anyone know of any way to fix this, or will I have to bring my phone in to get checked out? Really hoping this is just a small software bug...
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
You should probably exchange it for another. The EVO 3d generally has a pretty low speaker but with the issues your having I would just exchange it for another one.

My wife's S2 is having in call audio.problems. It was running unnamed 1.20 when it started. I tried CM7 and brought it back to stock with no luck. The problem still remains. When she recives a call the caller sounds robotic and cuts in and out. Keep it mind it does the same thing in speaker mood and with headsets/headphones. Strangely enough everything else works fine. Music plays fine on the speakers and with headphones.
Any ideas why this is happening?
She said my 10 month old son got a hold of it and chewed on it a lil. If its water damage I wouldn't expect it to play music...

sooo no one has had this problem... thanks anyways
Has anyone seen or heard of this, possible reasons why or perhaps knows a fix? It seems to have just happened all of a sudden. Any type of audio coming from back speaker is like a quarter of the volume it should be. volume maxed out on everything music, speaker phone, ringer, alarm, any sound emmitted from rear speaker is barely discernable. this phone was really loud about a week ago. sitting next to the gf's photon it's a night an day difference. I have already done profile,prl updates, factory reset phone a few times. I am on 45.3.6, baseband N_01.28.07R As far as I know my this is the same as when I got the phone. I don't wanna have to take this into the sprint store as my nearest store is a severe annoyance for me. seemed to have made enemies with the manager an a few of her lackeys.
I've had my M8 for about a day now and I'm very happy with it. I really love how you can now set up the volume rocker as a shutter button...finally!
Unfortunately my phone has an issue where the top speaker crackles in two situations, both when the volume is at the max setting. The first situation is when placing an outgoing call the top speaker crackles with every ring. Not too bad a situation by itself. But that top speaker also crackles along with peoples' voices. No other issues when listening to music either via Google Music or Pandora. I even tried to install an equalizer app to tone down the mid range but the crackles persist.
Hopefully this is the only phone with this issue but I did want to share this with the community. I'm heading to an AT&T store later today to exchange it for another unit.
You are not alone. I bought two brand new phones (ATT Version) in ebay. Both had the same issues. I am in the process of returning them. When you dont have proper reception of the voice call, the unwanted noise gets amplified. The phone does not have proper noise filter. My ear pains sometime. When this phone cannot be used as a basic phone, then I dont want to waste my money. Apart from that, this phone has lot of other issues like bluetooth, sluggish sometime, battery, intermittent touch response issues, etc.... mentioned in the various forums in the internet.
The sound quality on the bottom speaker and the external look are the ones worth mentioning which stand outs from other phones. My experience with HTC One M8 is very bad and I am not going to get another HTC product.
I bought mine three days ago and I notice a little bit of crackling as well. It happens when the volume is at max is not a strong cracklings but I can hear it, should I go to at&t to get a replacement?

Greetings.
Just bought the Z5C. Phone is awesome, but when I play anything over the speakers (incoming call, music, etc.) the volume is good for about a second, and then it turns very silent.
Anyone experienced this, or knows something about the issue?
Same Issue

Hey! I had this same issue for the first day that I had the phone. It was driving me crazy. What drives me even more crazy is I don't what I did to fix it. I am not entirely sure, but I noticed a difference after pairing the Z5C to a bluetooth speaker for about 30 minutes. When I unpaired and went back to the speakers on the phone they were substantially better. Hope this helps...

I was trying different things on my phone and decided to factory reset it. After it rebooted the same problem is back. Low volume for second, then super quiet. I tried replicating the same process I thought somehow fixed the issue before and it didn't help. I've tried messing with all the audio settings, toggles here and there but nothing seems to fix it. I wonder what this might be and why the phone all of a sudden started working like it should last time. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi, I had the same problem with lower sound from speakers after 30 seconds. After disabling "STAMINA" the speakers are very loud. And if you put "Audio settings" to "standby aktive" you could even activate "STAMINA" without speaker loudness problems
Yeah happened to me yesterday as I was listening to the Radio app while on a walk. Went from relatively loud to super low quiet. I thought maybe I pocket bumped the volume or something.
Same problem. In my case, I noticed audio almost stops from one of the speakers (sometimes the top one, sometimes the bottom one, wich indicates it may not be a hardware issue). Happens on games, music, videos, or calls with the speaker on. Seems to be random.
searching for this problem (this is also happening to me (mostly top speaker while i playing and mostly games
is only one speaker(top) for me not 2 speakers
(maybe the heat? if im not the only one is hardware or software? ) it was at 5.1.1 so updated to 6.0 still the same.. maybe speaker wont working well while heated? tried to shake the device thought maybe something loose connection inside
