I do get sound, though I am disappointed with the device sound. Comes from only one side and seems pretty quiet. Headphones fix it though.
I actually had the problem of extremely soft sound coming out of the speakers. Tried volume+ and it did help a bit but it would randomly just go silent.
After much tweaking and such, I've 99% confirmed that its a blown speaker.
Disassembled it today to recheck the connections and no luck!
Cold boot doesnt help either!
Currently awaiting the shop to find a spare speaker for me...
There has been a few reports of the speaker not working from the git go. You got a bad unit and you'll have to exchange it for another.
As for the volume, I compared mine to my friends ipad 2. without volume+ they were about equal, ipad may be just slightly louder.
with volume+,volume boost set at +7, and bass at +4 it is noticeably louder than the ipad and the sound is much cleaner and better sounding. I'm actually very impressed with the speakers, especially for a tablet.

Having a similar issue.... the speaker will work and then just cut out... I don't think it is a blown speaker since if it was then it would never work, but mine works intermittently.

I can not get a good sound no matter what I do. I have always used power amp and never had a problem with sound. With my epic I always ran music thru my car stereo and it rocked. With this phone I got so mad today at how bad it sounded I just turned off.
I have tried every adjustment I could but no dice. It just sounds distorted no matter what I do. Do u think I have a defective one? Like I said my epic would rock and sounded so good so u would think this phone being the 3rd generation it would be better in sound quality also. I have tried the stock player to and it sounds worse.
Edit: forgot to mention I also had beats flashed onto the epic too.

Try the app from the play store called Volume+. I've used it only to modify the external speaker for better quality on other devices, but there are options to modify sound for the in call speaker & headset also. You'll want to select headset obviously as it just refers to audio out via the 3.5mm jack. I hope this helps you & your able to adjust the audio profile for better quality, as I've had success with this app, but I haven't used it on the gs3 yet?
I'll give that a try. I am also getting a buzzing at the beginning and around the
Middle of songs to. It's about a 1-2 s3 one buzz
Edit: just looked it up. Doesn't work on the Sprint version of the GS3 yet.

Ok, well there are other apps if you google search or search the play store & also look at the roms in your dev section & I will almost guarantee one of them has dsp manager or some sort of audio equalizer app included.
Now the buzzing noise is 95% one of two things. 1) The auxiliary outlet in your car stereo has an issue or it just gets a poor connection, this can happen sometimes in lower end after market head units or for other various reasons I'm sure.2) The auxiliary cable your using is causing it because of a short or because cheaper cables just get a ****ty connection & thus provide ****ty audio quality. Try buying a more expensive one and give it a shot as soon as you get to the parking lot, if the problem persists then you can walk right back in & tell them its not what you needed & get a refund. 3) Your phone has a bad 3.5mm jack. (This is possible, but probably the least likely)
Please report back what your results are after trying these few possible solutions. I think you'll have a viable fix here soon. I hope this helps out.
It's not a cheap deck lol it's Pioneer. The buzzing does it with the stock head phones and my after market jvc earbuds.
If I turn the volume up (headphones) halfway it's starts to sound distorted. With my epic I could rock the volume the whole way up with out any distortion.
I'm starting to wonder if it's the Jack. It's bad lol

I would take it back to Sprint it sounds like there is something wrong with the phone. Unless its the MP3 you are listening to is bad quality.

Looks like there is a bug with some phones http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778451

That really sucks if its the jack, just because you have to set everything up again. I wasnt aware there was a known issue with the jack, but I hope your able to at leastget a working one. Good Luck
OK. So I have looked ALL over the forums and interwebs and I haven't found anything that relates to the problem i'm having!
I have had my S2 for almost 2 years and it has never failed me. Let's say about a year ago I was using my official samsung headphones when the right side stopped working. Considering that it could be the phone's problem I used the headphones in other devices (inclusing pc) and realised that the headphones had the same problem, right side was dead.
So, I tried my sister's headphones (official), worked great for about a week, then the same happened. Right headphoned died!
Then I bought some similar headphones, worked great for 2 days, then....caput! Right side dies!!!
I have tried settings, looking inside audio jack, fiddle around with headphone cable. I HAVE NO CLUE!
Is anyone finding this a problem? Has it happened to anyone else? Is this a common problem with the S2?
I am running Android Jellybean 4.1.2.
I am not rooted and I don't want to take my phone apart. I'm starting to think the S2 is eating away at headphones in general, only the right side.
Thanks in advance!
I've used the stock earphones and a better quality Sony pair....and I'm also using a mod that significantly increases overall volume and bass etc........and so far, my earphones seem to be surviving......when you were using these earphones, did you notice any significant difference in the sound balance between left and right?
Edit......
Just a question......
With the stock earphones, you have the main (single) cable between the plug and the mic.....and then from the mic, you have a short left cable and a long right cable......were the other earphones you used of the same design, or were they the more traditional type where the left and right cables are the same length?

Nope! Sound quality was perfect every time. Settings were set to stereo and never had to change the equaliser. All earphones would work flawlessly in any music player, video player, youtube...etc. Then quite randomly they would lose sound in the right earphone and never work again on that side in any device. That's 4 sets of headphones I have gone through that have all broken in the same way. I haven't touched a damned thing!
Do you have your earphones in your pocket? Maybe the cable just breaks. Had this a couple of times.

The stock earphones cost maybe $2 to manufacture. I think that might have a lot more to do with it than the phone itself.

Yes. That is a factor I have taken into account. But the headphones have always been wrapped neatly and never bent. It's strange how it only seems to lose audio on the RIGHT side earphone though.

Have used earphones of great quality, costing much more than that. And the same thing has happened.
Are u using the headphones for a lot of things? ( I mean not just your phone) If that is the case, try using the headphones ONLY with your phone and laptop, i've had some problems before like this when i plugged my headphones to my friend's phone and those mini tv things on the bus.

ALL headphones I had were only ever used for the phone! I have great headphones for laptop so the phone ones were never needed.
Then there may indeed be a problem with your phone, maybe it short-circuits or something, you can try s2 nuke from hawkerpaul: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100558
If this doesn't solve the problem,it's probably hardware and there is nothing you can do, give it to a samsung center.
Don't wait anymore
After going through the OP and ALL the replies, I just want to second the opinion that it is indeed a hardware problem specific to your device only.. So try not to put the fifth pair of headphones in, just visit your nearest Samsung service centre and I am sure they will know how to go about your problem..
Switched from a note 3 which connected to my car without a problem. However this phone keeps disconnecting and whenever it does connect the sound is horrible. First the volume is low and sounds all mufflled . anyone else have this issue?
Mine works great in my 2013 Civic Si with Handsfreelink. What kind of car / interface system

I have the Verizon variant and it sounds great in my 2013 Ford Fusion using Microsoft Sync. I think it sounds noticeably better then my previous Samsung S5.

I have a 2011 prius with stock navigation and bluetooth..it messing up while all my other phones worked fine
Does not work at all with Cadillac CUE (for media, calls are fine). I've tried the tricks (turn off media audio in bluetooth settings after connect, etc.) that worked with G4 to no avail...
I have a pioneer x5700 and have pandora going through bluetooth and sounds good. Not HD but not crappy radio. And much better than my Note 4. And I haven't had any signal loss.
What system are you linking it to?
Have similar problem and it is my first significant concern about the otherwise thrilling upgrade to V10.
I have Audi Q5 2012 and the previous phone, Motorola Droid MAXX sounded great. This V10 is just as you put it, horrible... Static, low volume, and dropped tiny fragments of sounds, as if I'm making an international call (they used to sound bad).
Puzzled and concerned... Cannot think of a reason yet but unsure if I should put up with it for 2 years under contract...

oh crap, I'm seriously wanting to get this phone and I have a 2010 Prius stock nav like yours (2010 and 2011 use the same exact nav). Have you deleted the phone and re-add the phone? My LG G3 sounds great.

Any BT will always have delay. The V10 is the best BT device I've ever used. Hitting the track change is almost instant (Google Play on SD card) whereas on any other phone I've had was always slow (ESPECIALLY Samsung... despite their internal-only storage now). Audio quality is fine as it should be. By far though, the most pleasurable device to use in my car.
2015 SRT Charger.
I have a 2014 Kenwood excelon nav unit, and my V10 will pair, but flashes on and off repeatedly.
I also can't get the Bluetooth to pair my vehicle ECM to the phone through my bluetooth OBD transmitter. Basically renders Torque app useles
On the issue of call sound call quality, I improved the sound by unclicking "noise supression" and clicking "voice clarity". Otherwise it was really bad. I think it has to do with my vehicle already having noise suppression.

Can't wait to test it and report back.
One thing you made me research and I think is worth clarifying is that those two settings can be found from a call log, then menu (three dots in UR corner), then Call Settings.
I'm using the tmobile v20 and noticed this morning that my DAC wasn't impacting the sound quality of Google Play Music at ALL. I have been using a v10 for the past year and I could tell that the DAC wasn't working, or it was broken, because my non-DAC listening on the v20 paled in comparison to the v10 with DAC on.
I went ahead and installed the DAC Fix for V10 and it seems to have fixed my issue. In case any of you aren't noticing the DAC working on streaming apps, try this. So far I've had no issues.

Funny, listening to Google Play Music with my leftover Note 7 earbuds I hear a distinct difference when I toggle the HI-FI on and off. I tried installing the V10 fix app and can hear no difference enabling or disabling it. I did see that the settings for Hi-Fi say "The sound has been automatically adjusted to the connected audio device". Could the type of headphones/earbuds determine if it engages?
T-Mobile edition of the V20.
I also hear a big difference on my T-Mobile unit. I'm using a set of Skullcandy earphones, and toggling off/on is immediately noticeable.
I ended up testing some more...I turned off the DAC fix, yet the toggle still worked. So I uninstalled the DAC fix completely and the toggle STILL works. I guess my unit was stuck in the "off" position for some reason, but it's working fine now. Weird. Sounds so much better with the DAC on.
The DAC fix makes no difference on my V10. Once the dolby atmos is turned on and Viper, the sound quality is superior. My V20 is arriving today and I'm sure with my 1More earphones and that 32bit DAC my ears will cry for mercy.
I wasn't able to replicate your problem, but I must say... This audio quality is far superior than any other phone I've ever used, finally something deserving to be used with Denon Urban Raver's.
Soooo is the DAC fix only for streaming apps such as Google play?
This is my main source of music...
Im comparing the headphone DAC on the s7 and the v20 and they almost sound the same, Im activating and turning off the Hi FI on the v20. Im using an audio technika m50x. Should i donwload the app to fix the dac? im using a video from youtube to do the testing. going to use google music songs that i have download to see if there is a difference.

Other people's DAC worked fine for streaming apps without the fix. Mine WASN'T working, but now it is. I can't say why. But I'm like you. I use GPM for my daily music.

I'll tell you right now, if you can't notice it, it isn't working. You don't even have to be close to an audiophile to notice, it's just simply 3x better.

It is quite noticeable on every music app I've used. The best way I would say is just listen to some music you like. I wouldn't know how to fix it, mine works perfectly. Try a factory reset?
Edit: I just moved from the S7 edge, and the difference is quite clear. I even think it's much better without the hi-fi turned on, but with it on it's significantly better too.

Sennheiser Momentum In-ear, SteelSeries Siberia Elite Prism headset, and both Samsung and apple ear buds that come with phones. There isn't a pair I can't tell the difference on. I even did a blind listen test with my wife, and she confirmed that it sounds better on the samsung ear buds she uses (included with S7 edge).

I figured out a very easy way to tell. If your phone doesn't mute music for 1/2 a second when you turn it on, it isn't turning on. It should have a 1/2 second mute when enabling or disabling.
It does. So i imagine is better in the clarity or something. Because it doesnt sound louder than the s7.

how you are connecting them? first the cable to the phone and then to the headphones? or just plugging them
