Has anybody been having issues with their sound? It worked fine when I was first using the phone, but when I plugged it into my headphones today, the sound only comes out of one side. I thought it was an issue with my headphones, so I went through a couple others and it was the same. It does the same with speakers in my car/home.
I clicked around on the sound enhancement to see if it would fix, and it didn't. Factory reset also did not solve this issue.
Could this be from the heating issue I've been having? While I was going through some apps and using it, the phone became very warm, borderline hot. Anybody having this issue as well?
Sorry for long post.
I have same issue with sound and keyboard delay issue too.
Titan II is so buggy.
Disabling the sound key press, eliminated the keyboard delay issue for me.

I've recently noticed that I don't get sound when making a phone call unless I change to speakerphone. I don't make many calls so I don't know exactly how long it's been happening, but I first noticed it a couple weeks ago. I know that the other person can hear me fine when I'm on either setting. I've also switched ROMs, from Alien to the new CM7 beta, with no change.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is it most likely a hardware problem? I've never dropped my phone or anything, and it's only 3 months old. Does anyone know of an app that can test the normal phone speaker, because all other sounds have been working fine.
Thanks for any suggestions!

My guess is it's a hardware problem. I would have it checked out by your mobile phone company.
You can also look up "hardware test" in market and you will find apps there you can use to test your hardware. Sorry not to recommend one. There are many there if you look them up.
Sent from my Atrix XDA Premium App
Thanks for the response. I looked for an app already and didn't find anything useful. There were tests for just about everything else; touch screen, sensors, GPS, etc., and only two that I found that had an audio test at all. However, neither of them allowed me to specifically test the "phone" speaker.
I just think it's weird that all other sounds work fine. I'd really rather test it before I send it in to Motorola.
Thanks again!
This was a common issue on the Motorola Defy's. I had to send mine to Moto for repair. If you're within a year, AT&T will replace it.
I am having this exact same problem with homebase. but mine is intermittent it will work straight after a reboot
More sound issues
In my case I just updated from Froyo to Gingerbread, everything was working perfectly, when suddenly i stopped listening to the earpiece, the loudspeaker still works during calls,
On the other hand, if I try listening to music or any other sound, the loudspeakers dont work... any ideas of what could have caused the problem? It feels like some sort of driver issue, because while trying our the earpiece and loudspeaker during a call I was able to listen to one second of conversation through the earpiece...
i do have exactly the same issue...
putting pressure just beneath the fingerprint scanner, makes the earpiece work for an instant ...
its definitely a hardware issue...
m really fed up with dead spots on touchscreen n this earpiece issue....

Same problem here?
Does any1 have any fix..Help needed!!!
Okay so earlier today I was eating lunch and I managed to spill water on my phone. I immediately went and dried it out and then turned it back on. Everything appeared to be working except the sound. I had the Xperia Z1, so I knew you had to wait a little before the sound would return back to normal out the speaker port, so I waited but it still wasn't working. Upon further investigation, I discovered that it would play my ringtone(a song from my SD Card), notification tone and the noise it makes when you adjust the volume using the buttons but it would not play my music through the music player app at all. It also wouldn't play sound out of the earpiece so I could only hear the only person if my phone was on speaker. The speaker is back to it's normal sound now but it still won't play music, things through youtube or pandora and my earpiece still isn't working. Is this a software issue or is it a hardware thing? It's very strange. I'm using XtreStoLite right now and I'm downloading a stock rooted rom and I'm gonna flash it to see if that changes anything, but has anyone else ever experienced anything like this? What would my options be as far as fixing the problem? Thanks in advanced for all your answers, and also, the water damaged sticker is still pearly white so I don't think it's water damaged. I already tried reseting, taking my battery out and factory reseting as well.

Wowza, what a wall of text. Paragraphs please, as that is too hard to read all the way through.
One possibility is moisture or dried crud in the headphone or USB jacks leading the phone to think that a headset is connected. Hardware damage seems a lot less likely.
Or it could be an unrelated and coincidental software issue. Do you have a known good backup that you could try restoring?
.
Is anyone else getting a slight "crackle" when doing things with the device?
While my device isn't doing it all of the time, the speaker will occasionally randomly crackle/pop when playing a brief sound (such as the sound made while tapping app icons or adjusting the volume).
Doesn't seem to do it when there's an actual constant sound playing though, which is pretty odd =/
I heard a crackle/pop on a display model at bestbuy. I hope its not a problem on all of them.

I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one haha.
This sort of problem seems more indicative of a voltage issue than an actual speaker issue though at least, which means it could be fixed in an update if it is a widespread problem.
It reminds me of a problem I had with another device that was more or less fixed by either changing the governor or increasing minimum voltage.
Welp, my thread got moved here and this forum is pretty much a graveyard. If anybody else has this issue and happens to figure out how to fix it, please PM me, as I won't be bothering to check this thread.
As near as I can tell, it only ever happens while it's USB-attached to a PC (in my case, a Mac laptop).
Mine crackles for a few seconds every time I open the camera app. Didn't start out that way. Want to say it started about a couple weeks after I got the phone. Maybe after an update but not sure. Everything works so I've just ignored it.
Hi NeoRage. Am getting the same problem (crackling when opening the camera) - did the problem go away?
I have the issue too. S6 Edge I noticed it when editing my contacts, it cant be good that electricity is arcing someplace! but like someone else said, it keeps working so... I don't know if it coincided with Marshmallow but it was right in that same timeframe.
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

hi u manage to fix it?
anyone know how to fix it? at my case its only TOP speaker
mostly happen while gaming
Hello everyone,
I recently got my LGV30, about 2 days ago, brand new, but from a 3rd party seller, and I noticed a very minor poping or "crackling" -- I'd like to call it more of a microcrackle than anything -- issue with the audio that happens . Specifically, when I open up the google browser, and hit the microphone icon on the search bar, about once every 10 or so times (its honestly random) I hear a micro pop or crackle in my speaker, for literally 1/4th of a second, then everything works like normal. It either happens right before the "beep" sound when the microphone icon is pushed, or just after the "beep" after it has been used, or both. It happens more often before I'm going to say something, or immediately after I'm done speaking as it types out what I said. Again, this is a very small "pop" the "ding" sound from pressing the mic still works, it just sounds a tiny bit distorted when first pressing it. Similarly, when using Gboard, and trying speech to text on the Messenger app, I hear the damn microcrackle again.
Here's the crazy thing though, I have ran about 5-6 videos on youtube that are supposed to be speaker tests (high and low frequency noise), everything sounds great. I have listened to over 10 hours of video/music and only once noticed a tiny bit of crackling, but honestly It was so quick that I'm not really sure if it wasn't just the song playing. I also have not noticed it with headphones but will continue to test this. I also picked up another android phone I had years ago, the Moto G4 Play, and tried to replicate the issue, to my surprise, my MotoG4 play has a similar issue, but its significantly more quiet than my LG. In the Moto's case, I press the microphone icon on the keyboard and I hear more of a "buzzing" sound immediately after, then, once I stop talking and hear the closing "beep" of the microphone, again, the buzzing sound. Much quieter, and likely why I never noticed it at all when using that device.
I'm just wondering if you all think this is a software issue, or a hardware issue? I have made several phone calls, people say I sound good, and I can hear them fine. I feel like something is happening when I press that button, as it doens't happen at ANY OTHER time when using audio. I'm thinking it might be the microphone "poping" itself awake? Maybe? I don't really know how this works.
Should I go through the trouble of returning the phone over this, or trying to get an exchange? It wouldn't be easy, since I bought the phone brand new off Ebay, and would need to contact seller (has 30 day money back guarantee).
Please let me know.
Thanks!
