Alright, so a while back, my loudspeaker started to cut in and out, and when i would fire up a game it would come through all distorted or muffled. Upon exiting the game, i could fire up play music, select a track, and it would play fine. But then back to any other application, and it would be muffled again. Notifications come through the earpiece, and eventually no sounds at all come through the loudspeaker. Then i reboot and its all fine again.
I factory reset, and it did not help. I plugged in headphones (and wheres where it gets interesting) the headphones output the same weird muffled quality of sound that the speaker was producing. So is it not the loudspeaker?
I tried to flash a different rom over, still didnt help it at all. Im not exactly sure whats going on, but nothing i am doing seems to be helping. Can anyone help me?
That doesn't sound like a software problem, that maybe the sound producing hardware ( amplifier ) that seems to be working intermittently, just happens to work when you change applications. Is your device rooted? If so, have you tried to go back to stock via Odin installed stock .tar OS ( kk 4.4.2 ) ?

I think that you should go back to stock or stock rooted, via a recovery backup, or installing a new OS. This would eliminate the possibility of a software problem. So if it works good on stock OS setup, great !!! Then you know its not a hardware problem. If doesn't work properly you will have to replace the device. Now assuming it does work correctly, you can reinstall the other rom that was giving you a sound problem and I would try installing a different kernel. The sound driver in a different kernel my work better.

Hello,
When I call somebody or they call me, they can't hear me, only if I put it to speaker mode. When I take video's, I can't hear the sounds made, unless I put my pc to 100% volume. I already applied 12 Db mic boost on it via sTweaks, still soft.
How can I fix this?
PS: it all worked fine when it was on stock 2.3.3 rom.
I once flashed Android 4.X kernel to flash a rom from 4.X, as I noticed, the 4.X kernel didn't worked great with 2.3.3, the soft buttons and home button didn't work, After I flashed stock 4.2.1 via odin, it was okay, exept the mic.
Nobody has a fix?
OK lost sound about a WK ago after a factory reset, have got it rooted now and I am still on stock rom. A total stock ROM would be nice; however, any knowledge of how the sound on android can be fixed would be much appreciated. Also, I get a popping sound while typing even when turned all the way down; although, it is silent when mute.

In an attempt to fix the sound I have ran into an issue. RKbatch tool error download firmware fail at 97% happens every time. Used plenty different drivers and tools, event the ones with the firmware. Tab is broke with no os or recovery, can get it to show on device manager; however, can not get firmware downloaded, for the following problem.
Hi all,
I have a Galaxy S" i9300 and I've been using NeatRom since a long time now, maybe 2 years or more without any issue, but since few weeks I'm having problem with phone calls, I can't hear and they can't hear me, so the speaker and the microphone are not working during call. While if not in a call they work fine, I can record my voice, listen to music...
I've tried many thing, full wipe, flash the latest NeatRom but nothing worked.
I've flashed also the latest stock rom but the issue remain the same.
Any idea please?
Thanks
Flash a stock rom via odin and boot it up. Go to the dialer and press *#0*# for factory test mode.
From there you can test the hardware. Factory test mode is not accessable via custom roms.

Tried that already.
Nothing looks wrong from *#0*#
Then the problem has to be software.
Most likely it is an hardware problem.

I have two S3 devices that have the same problem.
Tried factory reset, flash original rom, flash Cyanogenmod (CM11 & CM 13) and flashing modems. Nothing seems to be working.
Some people tried to apply pressure on the Audio IC chip. Maybe you can try this. More information about this can be found here.

Not true. I had this issue and it was software related.
Also, op states "no fault" with factory test mode.

What I said was "Most likely". That doesn't exclude software.
Hey,
so I recently got the P9000 and I am very happy with it in General. There is just one big Problem, I am very used to Cyanogenmod on all my devices so I tried installing it in this phone, everything worked fine except for the microphone and the Speaker, Calls go through but I cant talk neither hear anything. Everytime I Start the phone it also says AudioFX was shut down. I also Tried listening to music or any sound for that matter but nothing works. I then installed the Stock ROM and everything works like a charm so I can rule out a Hardware issue. But the Stock ROM is just not cutting it for me in terms oft usability and options and I would much rather switch back to CM. Tried it again yesterday, clean install and everything, Microphone and Speaker are not working.... Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Any help greatly appreciated.

First of all thank you for the tip, in the meantime I installed Android 7 beta to have a look at it. Is there any way to go back to Stock ROM on Android 6 so I can install CM13 Final Build 3? I have tried flashing Recovery and STOCK ROM via SP Flash but it won`t work. I click Download, connect the phone while pressing the Vol+ and it says Downloading, goes up to 100% but the red bar is still there, then nothing happens. Every Flash of Stock or CM Recovery I did before that worked just fine so I guess it has something to do with Android 7. If there is no way I guess I`ll stick with Android 7 for now but I´d rather switch to CM.
There is a way...it has to do with the Android...it changes the preloader and the boot partition. Take this file from deepflex: https://yadi.sk/d/40K4mWLauUddk and flash with sp-tools. Finally flash the TWRP-Recovery from Jonny with flashtools. At the end do a full wipe and install the cm13.1 (Final 3) and the opengaaps.
Got it to work, I used a slightly different approach but right now I am finally installing CM13 Final Build 3, lets see if it works out fine! Thanks again for your help :good::good:
Hi there
Since I updated my MI A3 to Android 11 the microphone sometimes doesn't record voices !
( I reset and flashed my phone so many times but didn't solve )
Upppppp
If you flashed stock with miflash... Probably the problem is hardware. I have flashed many stock and custom a11 firmware. And my microphone work well. A question. When you reflashed stock rom... You have changed the active slot? All updates are installed on slot b. So if want to make a good clean istallation... In my opinion is better set active slot to a via fastboot before flash. Try this. Also you can try a custom stable rom with oss drivers. But is important to make a good installation. Or the software problems may not be solved
Recently after owning a new car that is my first using Bluetooth handsfree option, I discovered this issue.
It seems the mic got somehow "stuck" to the car when I leave it, as the phone's normal mic then is okay. Just when trying to use the phone's handsfree mic in a call oder video calling in signal or hangouts it doesnt work. Even recording videos using the camera app is fine, but any handsfree option for any communication does not work.
Restarting the device or restarting bluetooth does not work. Somehow the phone recovers after sometime. When, why and how I do not know.
It definitely breaks down again once reconnected to the car.
with other bt devices have same problem?
Sadly I don't have any other bt device that is handsfree mic capable, I just own a speaker that is connected every now and then - it was my first idea to recover it by connecting to another bt device (the said speaker), but it does not work. Of course, the speaker is not connected using the same bt variant, the icon in the phone's settings is different.
mmmm... for this issue, the solution are: try delete all bt connection. if dont work try install latest software update. if dont work the definitive solution is wipe data and make a new clean installation. i suggest do this via miflash
