Hi guys,
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/vdieo 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. After few tries, app crashes.
Even system sound files are not playing, so i cannot receive any sound notifications from call or messages.
I've tried puting in microphones, same problem.
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.
I have tried flashing different JB roms with full wipes etc, still same problem, tried different player apps, same issue. Phone is vibrant, which is old but this shouldn't be happening nonetheless. Tried Slimroms 2.8 and 3.0 and Paranoid android latest, no luck.
Another issue, when I get a call and i slide to accept call, phone gets stuck for 5-10 seconds and then accepts the call, really annoying.
I dont have the money to buy a new phone at this point in time, I just hope to get through with 2-3 more months and then replace *finally*. Your help will be really appreciated.
I tried asking this in Vibrant Q and A forums, no luck.
Thanks!
bump~!
edit: videos started working :S , but no sound

Hey,
I've had the Vibrant for a couple months now but its been having a weird sound issue as of late where the sound just dies.
The sound stops working randomly and its frustrating because I don't know what causes it. Whats odd is that he ringtones still work if I go to test them in the Sound settings (only the stock ringtones) but all other media doesn't work. Jukefox tells me the music file type is unsupported and the on-phone music player tries to play them then skips to the next over and over.
The only solution I have for this currently is to reboot the phone then the sound works for a random amount of time before it happens again. The only way I find out is when someone calls me and it vibrates instead of the ringtone.
Any ideas? This is quite frustrating. I've also done a factory reset and the problem persists. I'm under the impression it might be a 3rd party app.
Hi all,
I'll describe the problem, as it has occured in two stages.
On saturday, my phone rebooted in my pocket without any button presses or prompting.
Later in the day, I found that the loudspeaker on the phone was not working. No ringtones, message tones, email tones, could not play music, would not show youtube videos.
The phone then rebooted again.
I backed up the phone on my PC, rebooted once more and it was working fine.
Then on Sunday the phone turned off and rebooted again, and the problem with both the loudspeaker and the rebooting as been occuring on and off since then.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a reason? Is there a solution?
Thanks
Richard
I wasn't able to post on the dev. part of the TB forum since I don't have 10 posts, I searched and couldn't find anything that really fit my problem.
My problem; I've been on CM7 for maybe a month now and it's starting to drive me crazy. When I'm listening to the radio or music or something at work and a notification sound plays, well it doesn't really play it just makes my music go silent for a few seconds then continues to play my music. That's a little annoying but I learned to live with it, but more times than not when I get a text or any other sound that will play over what I'm listening to my sound completely cuts out and doesn't come back, I hear a sort of static sound so I have to restart my phone. I ended up disabling all notification sounds so it doesn't do that but sometimes when I even load up skype when it has that sound play it does it. What would the problem be? any help would be great, thank you so much!
A little question, this is my first time installing a rom, lets say I want to update it, I get the latest kernal, that doesn't wipe everything on my phone right? It's basically just like an update? Again thank you so much!
CM7 is amazing, thank you for putting your time and effort into making it!

installing a kernel will not wipe your rom, but installing a rom will wipe out the kernel you had previously to whatever comes with the rom. It's also better to post questions generally here than the developer's forum.
FWIW I'm on stock rooted and every now and then I'll lose the mp3 player sound (player will show its playing, but no sound from headphones or back speaker) after the phone rings or some other alert goes off, and the only way I've found to get the mp3 player to provide sound again is to reboot.
So this might problem might not be limited to CM7.
Hopefully someone can help me with this issue.
When using the stock "Soundrecorder" tool i can record the first two seconds just normal yet right after that the recording-volume just decreases so fast that after one more second i cant hear anything anymore when playing back the recorded sound.
When i stop and record again same thing happens again. This is quite the issue also in Skype since ppl can hear me the first seconds and right after its like i turned the micro off.
Trying one thread bump again to get a respond from someone with similar issues before i hit a factory reset.
The problem is really something i have not seen on any other android device i own. You start recording speech and right after 2 seconds the rec-volume is NULL.
I mean there aint any settings for the sensibility the built in microphone records right?
On my note 3 I have noticed that when playing music on the speaker it sounds clear and nice until, I touch the screen for anything else, or I receive a message or notification. I don't know it it has to do with power settings. I have tried multiple roms and kernels. Any tips?
More information. This is very odd. Can you make a video with another device and put it on YouTube of your phone acting this way. I've never heard of this before.
