Hello I have the Samsung Galaxy S2 gt19100. My issue is with my sound. When I first got the phone about a month ago everything worked fine. However a couple off days ago my sound except for in call sound does not work. That is I have no ringtones, no music, no sms notification sounds. It makes no difference whether I have my headphones in or not. The music player in particular seems to have the most problems. When I touch a song to play it, it doesn't play at all. It goes to the screen with the album's picture, but the song never starts. It always remains at 00:00. Eventually the music player will crash. This leads me to believe that it software issue and not a hardware one. I've tried rooting the phone and installing a new image, I've tried formatting the SD card, however this has not fixed the sound problem. Note: This problem existed before I started rooting and installing new images.
If anyone knows anything about this issue I would greatly appreciate any help. If I've left off some information you need please don't hesitate to ask for it.

Okay...
Couple more questions... did you install anything new.. anything different that you did before the sound stopped working?
Try a different media player for music... like winamp etc and post the results...

I don't recall installing anything new. This problem seemed to crop up after I started using headphones to listen to music. But now it makes no difference whether I have the headphones plugged in or not. Still no sound either way. I downloaded Winamp and I tried PlayerPro as well. Same situation. No sound and the song track doesn't advance and remains at 00:00

Download another song and see if that works.
Find your music player in settings-apps-all and clear data.

Tried that too. Cleared both caches and fixed the permissions, but still songs hangs 00:00 with no sound. It should also be noted that I also have no sound for ringtones or sms notifications either.

Ok. Before we go into Drm issues, let's try this.
Download PowerAmp trial, from market.
Check if it plays sound well (it should) and report here

Try moving your music from sd card to internal or vice versa

I used Odin. Just a reminder though that this problem surfaced before I rooted the phone. I only rooted it and installed a fresh image in an attempt to fix the problem.

i think it's time to perform a factory data reset.
First, backup your important data.
Then,
Goto Settings - Backup and Reset - Factory data reset.
Done

Hello everybody,
I would like to ask how to get my music working again.
I'm on Hyperdroid 6.1.17 (2.3.6) with RedPill kernel, and I recently put new music files on my phone.
All mp3 320kpbs and my music players just keep crashing, the standard player as well as the app 'noozy' on mypc there is no problem at all.
I think it is really strange but what should I do to fix this?
Thanks!
Try mx player...works great

a. Goto Settings - Apps - All apps - Media Storage - Clear data and reboot phone
If your music player still force closes,
b. Goto Settings - Apps - All apps - Music player - clear data and reboot phone.
Both solutions won't work, is it maybe that my music is in sub folders or something?
I'm really quite clueless at the moment

I had the same problem you did, I had to do those steps 2 or 3 times before it worked. It's worth a shot
Mm still problems..
Any other fixes?

Hi guys,
Sounds and ringtones have suddenly stopped working. Didnt do anything nor did the phone fell or something. :S
Another issue when i try to play any media file, it wont play, it just stops and never plays. I can move along the timeline of music file but it wont play i.e. it remains paused but indicator stays along the timeline e.g. 3 minute song, i press play button, it stays on 00:00, then when i move slider to say 1:50, it goes there but nothing happens, just stays on 1:50. App does not crash. Same in video files.
Even system sound files are not playing, so i cannot receive any sound notifications from call or messages.
I've tried with handsfree too, nothing :s
Thanks!
keywords for anyone else ever faces this problem on internet: sound, vibrant, not, working, samsung, galaxy s, slimrom, android

If that doesn't work, fresh flash with full wipe might.
???
Did a full wipe reflash...still problem persists.
I do not think its necessarily a hardware problem because it just wont play media files. As I said, all music and video files are on auto-pause... no matter what i do, i can slide on timeline, but they just remain paused.
Flash a different rom and use a different music/video player.
Tried and tried...exact same issue.
System sounds wont play (when msg or call)
Media files, music and videos remain in 'pause' state, tho I can drag to forward and rewind but they wont play, they'll remain paused and if i do it alot, app whatever it be, crashed. Exactly same problem in youtube in browser as well.
:S

I see you must still be trying to figure out this issue. If reflashing doesn't fix it, it must be a hardware issue.
I am Jack's smirking revenge.
Dont think this is a hardware issue.
I came to this exact same issue in op after odin to stock through sticky, rooting it, flashing cm7 and then flashing slim.
Now no matter what backup i restore the sound doesnt work!
Problem with recovery? Odin tar ? Need help.

Now I know there are dozens of other posts stating that MP3's are not working, and yes I have googled and (xda'd?) it. But none so far have fix my problem. So the other day, when I downloaded an MP3 onto my phone, it wouldn't play. It was all fine and dandy until I realized that none of my MP3's would play. So from there, I tried a variety of common methods to try to fix this mess. I tried clearing the cache, formatted my sd card, deleted and transferred my music onto the phone (by the way, the MP3's DO work, I popped the sd into my cousins phone and my computer and they worked fine.), and factory reset. But for some reason, my ringtones still worked. That's when I realized that only MP3's under a a minute would play while others would not. So my question is how come my phone will only play MP3 files under a minute and how can I fix this? Please and thank you and I apologize if I broke any rules (I think I broke any from the video I just watched )
I'm on 4.1.2 Padawan ROM if it's relevant.
[EDIT] Well this may sound strange but I think it was my battery because I just switched batteries and now everything is working fine (except for occasional screen flickering but that's the result of 3rd party batteries (-_-#))
Have you tried a factory reset? I use MP3 files all the time. Even stream them via BT in my car to the stereo. Plays the entire song with no issues.

My Guess is its the rom you're using. Try a different rom. Some roms do strange things. factory reset wont touch the rom, and if your problem is still there its your best shot.
It's definitely not the rom because I had the rom for a while and the mp3 function worked for a while. It's just after I downloaded an mp3 file it stopped working

do you have a backup to revert to from when you installed the rom?
Well it definitely is not the rom at this point because it managed to survive CM10, oddly enough my ringtones which are actually longer than a minute still play. Is my music corrupted for only my phone?

U can rule it out ifu want but if it were me id try flashing a diff rom and see what happens. It doesnt hurt to try. If the mp3s work in other phones its obviously a software issue with your phone whether its your music app or something else. Try downloading a diff app to play your music and see if that works.

Maybe I was a bit vague, when I said "it survived", I meant the glitches. BTW Late response, but I stream MP3's over bluetooth as well, an A2DP headset to be exact.
Hi Everyone,
Hate this to be my 1st post but I installed Beats Audio on my rooted GP5 and next then I know all of my videos will have no sound and it just continues to fast forward or speeds up. I can't hear or use Youtube for video and again sound. I tried hard reset, soft reset everything nothing works. I thought it was my external SD card that's not it I put it in another phone and everything works fine. I scanned the hard drive for errors and everything came out fine. What should I do next?
Any help would be appreciated!!

Hey there,
So I recently flashed my XT1095 to stock+rooted 5.0, and I'm having an issue with GPM. Every time I try to stream a song from my personal backup, it tells me it's unavailable. Downloading music for offline listening works fine, but streaming doesn't. I tried uninstalling updates and deleting data, but nothing. Anyone have a clue as to what could be the issue?
Thank you.
UPDATE: logcat

Here's a logcat of me openng the app and trying to play a track. (P.S.: it works in safe mode!)
edit: it appears to be V4A, which is odd since it worked before I flashed my phone. Let's see.
edit2: yup. Setting it as compatible causes that error.

I'm glad it started working. Android is a unpredictable system and you have to guess and check to see a application is working or not.
