I installed new kernel, and have no sound from S3 back speakers(next to camera). Then I reverted all back to stock rom and kernel, but still no sound.
If I place my phone near to my ear - seems sound us still working but with tiny volume. In headphones - sound working fine and front speaker working well when i answer calls.
I already did full wipe, format and stock again but with no effect. I'm very sure my phone is not in silent mode, all volumes are opened to maximum. I searched at other threads but no solution was reported.
Anyone had encountered this situation before and can anyone help me please??
If you've returned it to stock unrooted and the issue still exists,.it'll be a hardware issue

Hi, I seem to be having a problem with my phone and I can't seem to resolve it. Back speaker works perfectly while playing music, playing game and watching youtube videos. Also works fine when I set a ringtone and it plays a sample. But when I receive a call instead of the back speaker ringing it is the front one that ring, yes the earpiece. I was wondering if anyone has an idea how to fix this?
I'm currently using a default android ringtone.
Using the stock JK6 Rom with the JL1 Baseband and the Stock JK6 Kernel injected with Voodoo 5.X
I can't say for sure which of these flashing caused the problem since I flashed them all one after another unable to test and detect such problem.
Thanks.
Resolved! It's a behavior of the WiFi Calling App, guess I'll have to install another one.
I have read other posts on the forum but believe my problem is a bit different and quite weird (to me).
The symptoms are:
- sound through headphones is OK
- sound through the speaker when someone calls me on the phone is OK
- any other sound through the speaker is non-existent (ie ringtones, music, games)
I have tried rebooting, removing the battery, plugging/unplugging the headphones. I have tried the *#0*# code and pressed "speaker" but there's no sample sound heard (except through the headphones).
Does anyone else find it extremely odd that the speaker seems to work fine when someone is talking to me on the phone but nothing else? I'm guessing this means the problem is some kind of software or firmware issue. Correct?
Prior to the problem, I started with Android 2.3.3, rooted the phone, and flashed a stock ROM (KK2). I have upgraded to 2.3.6. Unfortunately I can't be sure the problem occured since 2.3.6 because I don't play music that much, and I play games without sound.
Should I (a) re-flash stock ROM, (b) factory reset, (c) call Samsung?
Grateful for any recommendations. (I'm not confident/competent with replacing the speaker myself)
regards.
Check sound settings first .
Factory reset.
Flash a stock rom .
Rooted so warranty void .
You will need to clear root with a stock rom flash and reset custom rom counter to zero with usb jig .

Receiving a call has a separate speaker, so your problem is with the back speaker which plays tones and other music, do a complete factory reset and check for sound if its still not playing, then it could be a hardware issue.

Thanks for the advice. I didn't realise there was a separate speaker.
I've performed a factory reset but no success.
I'll call Samsung today and arrange for the speaker to be replaced.
Thanks again
I've Had Success..
Hey guys..
I know this threads old, but I had success fixing an AU TELSTRA i9100T with the same Audio issues presented here. Runing GB 2.3.3 Totally Stock.. No root, nothing.
Every-time I increased the Speaker level to more that Half way, I'd hear a deep "CLICK" sound then no Audio any more through the Speaker..
When headphones are in, No problems at all..
Strange thing is, that once I turned it down below half way, and Blew air or puffed or even Talked Loudly into either of the 2 x Mics on the Top or Bottom of the phone, the sound would return OK.... but, again if I turned it up past Halfway ( sometime maybe one step over half way ) it would CLICK again and no Audio through the Speaker.
So, First I was thinking HW, then SW, tried Factory Reset.. no Help at all.. same issue..
Then, I flashed ROM to the latest Stock JB 4.1.2 XWLS8 Spanish ROM floating about the forums and This fixed it.. Perfect sound. No Hiccups.. :good:
Just wanted to share this..

Hi all,
Since yesterday my phone no longer lets me hear the other speaker. They hear me, but that's it.
All other services are working fine (data, SMS, ...)
When I use a headphone it's working fine, same when using the external speaker but the ear piece in the screen produces nothing.
I thought it was due to a software failure , so I reverted back to the original ROM from SE (2.1), but the problem remains.
Oh, it's not the in-call sound, I checked and it is at maximum volume.
Anyone know if there is on-board system diagnostics which can detect hardware failure ?
Anyone else experienced the same problem and found a solution ? Been looking but so far nothing.
Currently back at MiniCM7Pro V21 Rom.
Thanks for any feedback
I've had a very strange issue crop up yesterday. My external speaker (the one on the back of the phone) volume has suddenly become very very low, you have to hold it to your ear to hear anything. The headphones and all are working fine
OS: CM11 M8 - been using this for over a week now
Stuff I've tried
1. I don't think I installed any app or made any update that would make the speaker behave this way.
2. I've checked the volume panel and all are at full. I've tried using multiple music players/alarms etc to see if it works and the volume is extremely low in all of them.
3. I've tried rebooting the phone.
Please help
Edit: a couple of forums say that it might be due to the headphone jack not recognizing that headphones have been removed. Seems possible since my speaker is not crackling/buzzing and gives clear sound but at a very very low volume level. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?
Help ... tried cleaning the headphone jack, removing the battery and restarting the phone. Not willing to do a factory reset if it's a hardware fault
What do you suggest ?
Got it solved, and in a very strange way
Restored my orignal 4.0 rom with twrp image. That suddenly caused all my speakers to start working. Moved back to the CM image and everything still works fine
Weird but true, mods can you add solved to the title
Hey everyone,
So this issue has been ongoing for a while and it's a pretty confusing one. (Running OG Pixel from Canada, originally from Telus)
My speakers and microphone suddenly stopped working when I upgraded to Android 9. I thought it could have been a hardware failure, but after much testing it's clearly software related.
I bought a Bluetooth headset, audio works when it's rooted to a Bluetooth device, but the microphone still doesn't work.
When I go into settings, and adjust the volume for the ringer and the alarm, my speakers work.
When I boot into safe mode, my microphone works for one recording, then stops working. However my speakers don't work in safe mode.
I have flashed an OTA recovery, done a factory reset and also uninstalled updates to the phone, sms and camera app in a hopes it was an issue with one of those.
Any ideas of what it could be?
Do I need to install TWRP and reflash a custom rom?
