Audio Plays through speaker and headphones when plugged in - Motorola Photon 4G

I noticed since I did the update to 198_7 my music plays through the headphones AND my speaker. I have reset my phone and the problem still exists. I have read a few other sites that say others are complaining of this same issue. Is there a fix or a work around for this? My coworkers are not a fan of this feature

mine does the same thing when playing through my truck, i just pause the music plug it in hit play unplug it so it stops the music then plug it back in and hit play. seems like a lot to have to deal with but i guess im just used to it and it seems to work every time for me. otherwise i hear it through the stereo and the phone and battery goes way to fast.

Im running the latest and listen through headphones all the time. No problem at all. Though I only use grooveshark for music.

I pulled the battery on my phone and it never happened for me again.

@custodian considering it could have been a bad update which is considered android developement, it technically could be here as well as q and a.

The same happens to me but only when I am listening to music and a notification happens.
The notification will play through the phone speaker, the music will pause playing through the headset but will play through the speaker for 2 or 3 seconds after the notification stopped and then will continue playing through the headset again.

Permanent solution people!!!!
It happens to my Umi X2 too... But it started happening after 6 months of use with no problem. Someone in another forum said that it has something to do with a thingy which is pressed when the 3.5mm plug from the earphones is plugged in the jack. Anyway the strange part is that when i reboot the phone it works for a couple of days and then it happens again, so definetely a software bug. No one has any kind of permanent solution right?

ninja is still in alpha stage so there's bound to be issues like this but also try a reflash? Or ask for a replacement since something might be wrong with the jack
I just flashed Kennethpenns Alien 3 Rom. Still the same problem. I don't see why it would just go so fast...
you know nvm, just looked down there with a flashlight, saw something. Fished out a decent sized piece of lint with a needle! son of a ***** but thankfully its just that.

[Q] Who DOESN'T have the audio hissing?

I am getting a ReZound tomorrow and I am feeling a little strange about it now because of all the negative comments about the audio hissing problem.
So who actually has this problem and who doesn't. Do the poll.
Update: I got my RZ today and...NO HISSING !!!! I am so relieved.

Have it
Don't care because it only happens when there isn't music and when there isn't music I'm not listening

Maybe is all I can say.
Don't have it, never had it. If I ever did have it, I never noticed it. This is the greatest phone in the history of technology. lol
I've only noticed it on ics roms in between tracks or if no music is playing.

Never had it.

Before the OTA I could hear the cpu grinding or something IF I turned media volume all the way off and hit play. If the volume was up I did not hear it over the music. It was never a hiss or a squeal.
Since the OTA I do not hear it at all. And due to my work I have to be able to hear unwanted noise in tracks and remove it so I believe I would notice it.
To be honest, some of the descriptions of noise that I've seen posted I find hard to believe. Not trying to call anyone a liar or anything but that's how I feel when I read them, some of them seem exaggerated.
Also, keep in mind that the people that post on this forum are anal about their phones and those that have no problems don't generally go posting about that, so what seems like a lot of complaints about noise is really a much smaller percentage when you consider all the people who have a Rezound that never even visit a forum about the phone and those that do visit but don't post about the issue since they don't have it.
No hissing.

I had it, and it was bad.
The OTA radio fixed it entirely, which I do not understand at all.
Doesn't make any sense to me, but it's definitely gone. Boggles the brain.
I'd have bet anything that they were talking smack when they said they were going to fix it with software. I'd have lost.
the update didnt fix the hissing for I...
No hissing here.
I've never played music on my phone so I just put one MP3 on there and tried. It appears I dont have the his. It sounded pretty good.
for me it only hisses when its hooked up to my car via auxiliary cable and when no music is playing. when I'm just using headphones or the speaker i have no problems at all

Audio Crackling/Popping while playing music

Is anyone having the issue where the audio is crackling? Out both my speaker and even over Bluetooth. I'm trying to figure out is it's the Rom or my phone.
Wow I just started using Play Music and I'm hearing the same thing. I'm on redruM lean v2.1.

I believe the volumes in the phone is wrong, I think they did it to sound more loud, but I don't like it sometimes

I get the same issue too, but only when music is NOT playing. Basically if I have my phone in plugged in through the headphone jack it start to make this sound. It can be rather annoying and it reminds me of when like the sound on my ipod is WAY louder than the sound I have set through my speakers and you get this humming sound. What I have noticed though, is if I just turn the sound down faintly instead of pausing. I don't hear the sound.
I am hearing little bubbling sounds when listening to Slacker Radio. I thought some app was running in background (had something like this with Hanging With Friends on my Galaxy Note), but still occurs if every other app is closed.
Wow you got to be kidding me. My X2 does this all the time and it's annoying. Looks like I may have to use supercharger on this phone too.
What rom are you all using??
Exchange the phone. My replacement sound fine. You have 35 days to return the defected phone. I'm still waiting for a way to reset the custom binary count before I send it back.

Call audio problems

Well I decided to flash "That Rom" v2 and everything went well. Upon first flashing it everything was great but now when I make a call the only way I can hear is with speaker phone. And that had acutally stoped for a while 2. I have flashed 2 other Roms tried other kernels and done a permissions fix. I always flash after doing a full wipe as well I like I said got the call audio to work over speaker phone but that it I get no sound over the ear speaker.
All help would be much appreciated
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
After seeing so many screen glitches, black screen, random reboots, sd card, etc. posts, it is obvious that the kernel has power management problems. So I decided to wait till a modified/custom kernel appears.
Otherwise it could harm the hardware IMHO.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
See I am useing faux123 kernel now and still same issue. I have hard time to beloved its hard ware issue because it was working fine then stoped randomly
Update: now speaker phone is not even working it seems. All sound is dead. Can't even play music over phone speaker. A reboot will bring speaker phone and other south nds back except call ear speaker audio. But stops again after phone goes to sleep

Faint popping sound

Anyone else hear a faint popping sound after 2 seconds of any sound being played ? It sounds like the sound is from the speakers turning off.
Hey
My HTC One does this as well (started a thread about it just recently), and it was the first thing I noticed on the phone when using sound on the keyboard. Extremely annoying and seems to be a wide spread issue.
wide spread? where else have you heard of this problem? does it happen on the international version as well?
Wondering if i should return mine and get another.
Other users have been reporting the issue as well. I'm located in Canada, and members from the US have said their phones have the same problem.
Yea just read your post on the international forum, seem like a widespread issue. Well I hope its just software

I was just coming here to post a thread about this. I notice it when playing music too (Pandora and DI.FM) it pops/static every second or so.

I hear a little tiny sound that plays immediately after sound stopping, but it's certainly not 2 seconds, that sounds like a problem
ATT HTC one that I just bought.
software version 1.26.502.10

Not sure, if I do have it I don't seem to be able to notice it. Where is it most prominent, I tested by starting and stopping Pandora repeatedly.
I believe it is the software keeping the amp on for a bit too long. I would assume this will be fixed with a software update

Make sure you are in a very quiet room, then play something on youtube, then hit pause, and listen very carefully. you should hear a faint popping sound as the speakers turn off after you pause the video.
let me know !
thanks

Ah, I can hear it now. In Pandora as well. Personally it's of a low enough volume level on my device where I don't think I'll find it annoying, but I still hope it's software related. Also seems to not be effected by the volume level or beats being on.
My speakers crackle and pop when I watch a music type video on YouTube...I havent been able to replicate it on Netflix,hbogo or regular music app...just on YouTube....of course since I unlocked I can't return for replacement

I was using an HTC one X before using this phone and I did not have this problem at all
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
yes i also have this problem. unlock the phone and put ur ear upto the speaker. you will hear static and after a second or 2, a pop. almost like speakers are left on longer than requred...weird.
I could verify, I too was getting that popping sound. It's one of the first things I've noticed as soon as I got the phone home. I'm not trying to be overly OCD cause overall I think this phone is perfect and has none of the other flaws and defect mention on this site.
But I thought I should mention I haven't been able to replicate the popping sound.

Popping sound is gone now. I haven't changed anything but it seems to be gone for now. Maybe it needed a reboot or something? Or maybe because my battery is almost dead...
