I have had a problem with my Epic since DI18. It was also on DK28 custom Roms, EB13, and NOW Stock EC05 ODIN flash from google direct link....
Here's my issue and I would like to know if anyone can reproduce....It might actually be possible that it is my phone.
I have a 2010 Hyundai Tucson. When I pair with the car, both phone and media audio play perfectly. When I leave the car and the connection is broken, the audio driver apparently becomes corrupt.
All the audio (phone, alarm, media, etc) gets routed through the earpiece and not through the speaker.
There is a constant subtle "click" from the earpiece as well.
The only solution is a soft reset and it fixes it until the next time.....
Any ideas?

I've used many ROMs (Viper, Bonsai, Nebula, currently ACS Syndicate) and I've had this problem on all of them. I've even ODIN'd back to stock before and it still didn't fix my problem.
After disconnecting my Epic from my Jawbone Icon headset, the sound often gets stuck inside the earpiece. Music, movies, games, ringtones will all play from the earpiece instead of the speaker behind the phone.
Is there some software fix to correct this? Can any of the devs point me in the right direction as to how I might troubleshoot this (maybe at the kernel level)?
Thanks in advance!
This doesn't really go in Development, and I suspect it will be moved soon.
I can tell you, though, that I've experienced similar problems, intermittantly, and here's what I've observed.
If I'm listening to music through bluetooth, before I disconnect, I'll stop the music. Then I'll turn the bluetooth device off. Then I'll turn bluetooth off on the phone. If I do it in that order, I don't seem to get the bug.
If you do still get the bug, rebooting fixes it.
Hope that helps!
This is a known issue. It's a bug that has to do with being connected to a device for both media and phone calls. If you use only one or the other it doesn't happen.

It's very annoying for me as well.
The other bug that I noticed is after taking a call over BT, when I end the call, the earpiece on the phone starts randomly popping. rebooting fixes it but it still really irks me.
I think the OP is wondering if there's a way to dig around in the BT stack and fix it ?

This stuff has been going on since DK28 and before. I believe Rodderick was looking into fixing it from the kernel side, but I'm not sure how much progress has been made. I know it's not as bad as it was on DK28, but still very annoying. It used to happen to me all the time (audio going through earpiece instead of speaker after disconnecting Bluetooth) when I would turn my car off and it would disconnect the Bluetooth to my car stereo. Now that I have the Samsung Car Dock, I just connect Bluetooth for phone only, and use the audio out on the Car Dock for Navigation and Media.
Moved to Q&A.
i am having a simular issue but mine is that when i connect to bluetooth headset i have to have media playing before i get a call or i will not hear the other person in the call.
it seems to me that ANY bluetooth headset with A2DP is doing this and i have tried 3 diffrent headsets. Jabra Stone, Jawbone Icon, and the Blueant T1.
all 3 of these headsets do this. does anyone have any solution yet?
Even if there isn't a fix, I wish there was an app to reset the sound settings post facto. Anyone know of one?
I just want to add my name to the list of those who are affected by this. Glad it's not just me, though. Hopefully it can be debugged easily.
For the record, a Quickboot Hot Reboot (reboot of Android only, not phone) does NOT solve the issue. Only a full reboot works for me. Seems like it may not be a software issue but something hardware-related.

Just want to add this happened to me the first time just now. I'm on rooted EC05. I was scared for a bit that the speaker had blown. Then when I discovered it all coming from the earpiece, I remembered this thread. A reboot did make it go away.
I wonder if it has any relation to the issue I see once in a while since the upgrade where my BT devices need re-pairing and ask for a passcode, when they really shouldn't.
I Also Have This Issue
I have had this exact issue since DI18.
After I hang up a Bluetooth call, I have popping sounds coming out of the earpiece. Turning off Bluetooth doesn't fix it. Turning Bluetooth back on after turning off doesn't fix it. In addition, after this happens, all devices sounds (phone ranging, notifications) all come through the earpiece and *not* the main speaker.
I've had all of the stock ROMs up until EC05 loaded on this Epic and have had the same issue throughout. I am now running midNIGHT ROM, which has cured most problems I’ve had with my device, except this issue.
I was just poking around trying to find some sort of tool or the name of the service(s) that I need to restart to fix this issue.
Same issue for me. Quite annoying as I listen to audible over bluetooth quite a bit, and then pretty much know I have to reboot when I turn bluetooth off.
SRF users have reported Bluetooth issues being cleared vs. stock builds. I can't say exactly why, but it does seem to work.
What are SRF users?
Nope...
Syndicate Rom Frozen...
Well, I'm on SRF 1.1.1 and I've got the same incredebly annoying audio issue.
Please, someone, come up with a fix!
So this morning, after my usual flashing of the latest Cyanogen nightly, I noticed that my Inc was no longer putting out any audio. Without thinking twice I recovered the previous nightly, but I'm still getting no sound from notifications/ringtones, music or alarms. Thanks in advice for any suggestions.

Update: I plugged my phone into my stereo and am getting audio again, but still not from the phone itself when I unplug it again. This leads me to believe it to be a hardware issue, which is probably not an easy fix. Should I start looking for a new phone? I use it as my alarm and I need to hear my ringtones because I don't always feel it on vibrate so it's not very useful to me now...
I'm seeing a similar behavior. I have audio until I use a BT headset. Once one has been used, I lose all audio from the phone speaker (even after the BT headset is disconnected). I'll have to try a wired headset to see if the audio is redirected. Only a reboot will restore my audio from the phone speaker. If the headset supports A2DP, I lose all audio even through the BT headset.
Does a reboot fix your audio?
Reboot does not fix my audio. I figured out that it is a problem with the speaker itself, which is very easily replaced http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799592
My audio works fine when plugged into my stereo or headphones, but is intermittent from the speaker. Apparently Incredibles are known to blow speakers?
Hey all
I have had a lot of trouble with my Galaxy's bluetooth connecting with the system in my Infiniti M37x
I now am able to have it so everytime I get into my car, the phone's "phone" bluetooth connects automatically, I can use the hands free system to make and receive calls AND the phonebook is downloaded into the system as well. Works just GREAT! I can talk on the phone and I have my contacts there. All hands free.
But......
that is only if I pair it to the phone part of the Galaxy.
If I also pair it to the audio device, then the troubles begin.
If I were to pair the audio to my car, the music sounds great...but once I turn off the car and leave, come back, the car won't recognize the phone part. Even if I go to BLUETOOTH settings, and click the little button, it won't stay or connect to my car.
This worked great with my EVO using Gingerbread.
Is this an ICS thing?
Are there any apps that would allow me to just leave the phone as the default car connection and if I want to listen to music, just click something to switch it over to audio part?
Whenever pair to the audio and I use the audio bluetooth connection, I have to unpair and start all over to get the phone to connect.
Hopefully this makes sense. Any advice would be helpful.

This is a Samsung thing (and I hate their phones because of this)
To have this function correctly, you need to enter car dock mode. To enter car dock mode, you need a samsung car dock.
If my phone is docked, I can stream music, receive calls, etc, all work great.
If I leave it in my pocket and I stream music and receive a call, the audio comes through the phone, and not through bluetooth.
My E4GT was like this. I opened an issue with Samsung to which they replied "Working as designed"
No other phones work like this, only Samsung and their ****ty bluetooth switching.
I think you can also solve this by going AOSP or AOKP.
I have no issue with my s3 when connecting to audio or phone. and im able to answer calls, and play music no problem
How did you pair both? Do you have to switch between the two?

I am also having this same problem but only after flashing a customer ROM. With the costume ROM the phone will connect phone and I can make calls no problem but I can not get music to stream to my car stereo no matter what I do with the costume ROM when back to stock just to verify this and I have no problems streaming music on stock ROM or making calls via Bluetooth.
Sprint GS3 horrible in car
The first two days the phone worked great. Now it connects but the sound is noisy and unintelligible from either end. I don't know what changed. anyone can help me on this? can I stream music through bluetooth if it ever starts working again?
are you running the stock software not modded in any way?
If someone can present a resolution I'd be very grateful.
I'm having trouble listening to music on my E4GT when it comes to listening to music. Whenever I connect earphones the sound is automatically distorted and robotic sounding. But oddly, whenever I connect to my car audio auxiliary it plays fine. I try different options to pinpoint the problem, its not the headphones because they work with any other device (also tried multiple headphones) and its not a hardware issue because it works with my car stereo hookup. I havent tried portable speakers because I dont possess any. Its very frustrating.
Thing is this started recently, I havent changed roms or installed any apps.
Im on Jellybean 4.1.2, rooted running the latest MIUI from the Android Development thread..
Ive seen a thread before the issue started on a different forum site, but it has no search feature so I cant relocate it.
Can anyone help me out??
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for me wrt to audio problems with my wife's Sprint Galaxy S3.
On a fully stock up to date S3, about 3 days ago all sound stopped working, this includes alarms, answer calls, key press sounds, playing music. However after a reboot, it would start working again for 6 hours or so, and then quit again. I assumed this was a software issue of some sort. I have an older rooted phone which I love and have had for years, I suggested that we finally root her S3, so she could get all those benefits plus fix whatever little software problem this was.
The rooting process when fine, and the phone now has CWM and CM 10.1.2 (Android 4.2.2). However the audio issue is still there and in fact a reboot no longer fixes the issue.
I have tried pluggin in the ear buds w/ built in mic, and those too fail to work. I also have paired various bluetooh devices like mini boom boxes etc.. they all pair fine however there is no audio output from them. No audio in the dial pad when hitting the numbers. When trying to play music the DSP Manager will crash, and then the music app crashes (tried Apollo and Google music). If I go to the sound recorder and hit record, it pops up with "Internal application error.".
So it seems all audio (speaker, mic, bluetooth, and headset) is broken which again makes me think software, but even after rooting and installing a new rom like Cyanogenmod the issue is here.
Any thoughts on what else I can try? Any firmware updates that I could apply specific to audio issues like this, or perhaps it is some sort of hardware issue that is preventing the software drivers from behaving properly?
thanks,
fishtek
I would Odin back to complete stock and see if the issue still arises. If it does then it could be hardware related.
Same problem
