Hey guys!
Ok so heres the problem: I have rooted my Note. I attempted to use a sound enhancer to make the bass in my Beats (Dont wanna hear the hate, okay?) and for some reason I get nothing but sound problems with play back. It pops, cracks and randomly cuts off (The sound enhancement). I figured it was the Rom so I loaded up another one. Same deal. So I tried an AOSP ROM. Its works perfectly. I would use that rom but I am SEVERELY missing my S-pen functionality. So I just decided to completely unroot and go back to stock, hoping that would fix all my problems. I would get a properly working sound enhancer and S-pen functionality. Well now that im back on stock, the EQ is not working again...Is this a problem with touchwiz or the Note itself!? Im getting super frustrated. Ive wasted time and my patience is almost gone...I just cant seem to figure it out. Any ideas?
Make sure you don't have two equalizer or sound processors running simultaneously.

Hi guys, I've had my Hero about a year now. The other day, all of a sudden my speaker seemed to stop working. I thought, oh great, it's a hardware bust. I then tried a call and the sound came out fine. That is the only sound working. Everything works with my earphones plugged in. Any advice?
Any ideas guys, I'm pretty desperate here -_-
It could be something wrong with your media volume? I know when you plug in headphones there is a different volume setting? Try a sound volume manager like audio manager .. there is different
Does the problem replicate itself on different roms. etc.. also what rom are you using.
sorry, I know this is basic
Thankyou for the reply man .
Unfortunately I know it is not down to a volume problem because also the ringer volume does not make any sounds.
I am currently on an ancient Floyo ROM as I haven't been able to flash over the last few months. I'm currently waiting for a Froyo Sense with working camera or a reasonably stable GingerBread ROM.
Did you test a handsfree calling? Try making a call and enabling mobile speaker (there should be an option pressing menu button while you are calling).
HTC Hero, as many mobile phones, has two different speakers, one in the back used to play music and loud sounds, and another one on the front to make calls. I think your back speaker is not working and that's why you can't hear anything except voice when you call.

Thankyou, I did not know there were two different speakers, although I suppose it makes sense when you think about it!
Tried what you said and my back speaker is definitely knackered - may have just persuaded myself to get a Z >_>
cheers
EDIT: FIXED
Mod, please delete this thread

Hi
I'm using Carbon ROM 0913 Nightly, and there's a weird popping sound at the few seconds of every song I listen to, and some distortions (too much bass).
I've disabled DSP Manager's settings, but it won't work, it stays the same.
Also, the PhotoSphere and Panorama seems to not be able to focus (sometimes it works, at random)
Any help on both issues?
Thanks! :cyclops:

I see your just getting started here but reading is a very important. help yourself first.
there is another post, only 2 threads down, with regards to your picture problems. eve the developer of Carbon has posted in there. as far as the sound goes, well, that really seems to vary depending on what ROM you are on. I have ran many different ROM's and had various different sound or music qualities. I have not heard music on the CARBON ROM. unfortunately my phone does not like that one. don't know why, but it goes to show how every phone is a bit different.
you could try either a different player or apply a different sound modification. I don't know whether its the speaker in phone your getting. I get bad sound from or headphones. it is a tiny little speaker in phone and at some point it is going to faulter. when I run the VIPER sound mod I get crackle too.
good luck

Try AC!D sound mod for Samsung devices DSP manager is pretty bad for the sound of your device in my opinion. Thier EQ was making my music really crappy until I find this

I use my phone to connect to my cars bluetooth. I've had since the phone since July and it sounded really good up until about three days ago. For some reason the audio lowered and doesn't sound as crisp as it used to. I know it is not the car stereo because my other devices still play perfectly. I have to turn my radio up to the point where the music will sound distorted.
Example = s4 on bluetooth turned to 25 - sounds great
s4 on bluetooth now turned to 25 - can barely hear it.
Is there a setting or even an equalizer that I can use to maybe fix this issue? Also is there any setting in the phone ( running stock ) that I might've pressed that decreased my volume?
Look into a custom rom, I know Hyperdrive has a volume hack slight/loud which works for me. Hopefully someone has an easier way to accomplish this.
Unfortunately I can't root this phone because it was given to me for work purposes.
Sometimes I have this problem, idk how busy you are, but hangouts will sometimes lower volume for me to make a notification sound and forget to put it back, try making your phone give you a notification sound and see if puts it back

I have tried googling but it does not really give a direct answer.
I have a rooted galaxy s3 with Resurrection remix which I love, but I am experiencing some problems with audio. Initially, audio would not really play out of headphones unless I let the audio play out of speaker and then put my headphones back in again. After downloading Soundabout to help with this, it seems now that audio only plays out of my headphones when I use the Google play music widget on my homescreen and do not lock the device, if I try to enter the google play music app whilst I am listening to something, the music instantly stops coming out of my headphones but then continues if I go back to homescreen again. This is also the same it seems with Sound cloud. I have seen some suggestions, one of which is to do a factory reset but I would deeply rather not do this, is there any other method of fixing this? Audio works but it is rather temperamental and seems to only work when doing having it in a certain way. I have heard about an app called Viper4android, but I have not actually tried it yet.
A side note, but it is not priority to fix at the moment, I am also experiencing a shorter battery life then when I had my stock touchwiz rom and also my phone seems to get hotter at the bottom (like it would in an intense game) but when I am just on the homescreen using it a lot with a fair few apps open and doing a lot, is this normal on this rom? It kind of makes me fearful about using the rom too much in case I somehow damage my phone. Anyway, my main concern is the audio problem but if anyone can answer that as well that would be nice.
Apart from these problems, I am loving this rom and would really like to keep it as the performance is phenomenal compared to my stock samsung rom. Please help so that I do not have to go away from this brilliant rom because of some problems.
Simliar issues
I'm having very similar issues with CM11 on 4.4.2... Although my issue is that my headphones occasionally stop working and only work when I open Google Now... very weird. I have to reboot to get it right again. Haven't figured out how to replicate the bug yet.
So, I've used Viper4Android for a time, but it has become so buggy that even running the app is a hit or miss (sometimes wouldn't even process the audio even after freezing AudioFX). That being said, I am looking for other audio mod alternatives.
As the topic implies, what are the audio mods that you guys are using and tell me the reason(s) why. I am interested to know. Thanks!
Hi, i personally use viper4android and i feel its really good, i had some ringer volume cracking issues when using stock rom, but everything works fine on miui. If you want alternative, i suggest Dalby Atmos, but it has less functions than viper4android.
