My Phone makes crackle sounds when I'm playing music, it crackles only while music is on. If I touch the screen sliding my finger it will crackkle but if I don't touch the screen the audio is fine but only crackles when I touch the screen. Plus if I hit the power button to turn off screen sometimes it will crackle as well.
PowerAmp,Music Player,TuneInRadio etc.... this just tarted to happen a few days ago. Can someone explain this to me. Because these crackle sounds need to go away it sounds bad.

There are at least two possibly major elements you're leaving out in your description. One, how if and where are you plugged in for power (if so using what cables) and two, what are you using to listen - phone speaker or headphones and if so, what kind/how are they connected? These things may have a big effect on your sound and issues with it.
Running Voodoo sound by any chance? If so it is a known issue and there is a thread dedicated to the issue.
We never narrowed it down,but I am now using Twilight 1.0.4 Vsound v4 or 5,and the pops are not present atm...

I was using both in auxiliary to car and headphones it doesn't matter plus kernels aren't the issue. Even when not charging when charging nothing matters even if I just use regualr speaker from phone it all just crackles. I Odined I Wiped I reinstalled nothing changes it just crackles

Sounds there are some loose electrical contacts.. defective hardware. :/ take it to a Sprint Corporate shop, they should be able to fix it relatively cheap if not for free.

I would take it in and chat with a rep before unrooting tho. No need to unroot if they have a way to fix without wiping your phone. Quite a few reps have their phone modded too.

I would unroot because they can flag your account for rooting and you will no longer be able to receive a replacement phone.not every rep is going to want to be your buddy lol

I'm sure this is entirely possible, but when I said chat, I don't mean divuldge every last mod you have done to your phone. I simply meant unrooting might be unnecessary. Every shop is going to be different. I know the shop near me has a few rooted users. Of course though, there is no denying that unrooting your phone is your safest bet.

Try formatting the phone and sd. Odin to stock. Root then rom. I have fixed this issue twice on my phone by doing this.

Twilight 1.0.4 is the kernel people there say doesnt have the problem. Havent got around to testing. I can say that between the default bonsai kernel and genocide 1.0 kernel the crack/pops/distortion is less noticeable on genocide but its still there.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
And in general, there isn't a problem. It only affects some people.
Before placing blame and switching kernels, uninstall Voodoo Control, reboot, clear cache/dalvik-cache, and reboot again. See if the problem goes away. It probably will.
On my phone it had nothing to do with the kernel. Once the stutter appeared nothing but formatting fixed it. After that I could apply any kernel and the phone sounded great.

Just a quick update sometimes i dont even touch screen and it crackles like im sitting on the music player ( PowerAmp ) and when the screen automatically shuts off it crackles. SO WTF, what does touching a screen when audio is playing have to do anything to make it crackle it doesnt crackle any other way.
Plus sometimes when i touch screen it doesnt crackle its random
Another thing it only crackles when the screens on. as well I can play music or audio and have screen off and touch screen it doesn't crackle.

If you have tried the ultimate wipe (ODIN, Re-root) and flashed a freshly downloaded ROM and kernel and tried a different app.. I find it hard to believe its anything but hardware. Another thing you can try is using a different battery. It sounds definately electrical related.
Best of luck!

Why would you play video and turn off the screen? And I wonder if it is a hardware issue. I've used CM for a long time and I've never had that issue at all.
Sometimes when i watch movies online I would lose my wifi conncf(modem problem) so my screen would turn off after 30 seconds,
When I turn the screen back on and unplug headphones, the headphone icon stays on and I lose sound, have to reboot.
Don't think its hardware since it started after flashing cm 7.1 ..??

The worst is... It makes sound when you power it off now. Who was the genius that thought that one up? Like on the middle of a movie theater or in a meeting.

1. Let the kernel sit sometimes it takes a while to set in. If not try a factory reset. Resets are usually needed after an Android update to function properly. My batt did drop a lil than on GB but not too bad.
2. I believe sfhub has a tweak to enable USB storage back if you need it that bad.
3. When in the movie theater or a meeting a phone should be on vibrate from the start. All it takes is a drop down of the notification bar and voila vibrate or silent without powering down. But if you chose to power off the sound it makes would be silenced.
None of your issues sound as bad as what many others are experiencing..

Ok I've never had any real problem with ICS but this one bug drives me crazy and I never see anyone mention it here. Whenever I'm listening to music and try to browse the Web it just constantly keeps scrolling up. This happens every time the speaker is in use. If I use a wired headset or my my stereo bluetooth set to listen to music it does not do this. It even happens if you get a text message and your notification plays so it's definitely related to the speaker. I'm sure I'm not the only one who gets this so why is it never brought up? Maybe a fix from one of our wonderful devs?? I've been avoiding dl'in a third party browser but I guess maybe it's time

I would think most people don't report it because they don't use the stock browser. I have never even opened the stock browser since I got this phone the day it came out.

Lol guess I'm alone on this. Thinking about trying chrome and see if it works. I just hate having two browsers. That's why I got rid of Dolphin.. And I was bored of it too! The reason I use the stock is cuz I like that inverted rendering option to save battery.

It's been a problem for me in every ICS builds since I've had this phone. I don't take no steps I just have any music app whether it's the built in music player or Pandora playing and if I try to use the browser it's a p.i.t.a because it'll just keep scrolling up unless I stop my music. Even if I'm not listening to music and a text comes in the sound makes it scroll up. Something about my speaker and browser are not playing nicely with each other. It's plain weird. I'm using chrome at the moment and the issue is gone with it. So far I hate it tho. Can't even set a home page wth lol

I absolutely love the gestures with it... it's amazing. I hope you like it.
I don't know why this started but it is very annoying. My speaker works because I played music while my phone didn't make any noise and it worked.
But when pressing the volume keys, the little "boop" doesn't sound and when I restart the phone, the animation and sound turning off doesn't sound but the boot animation sound works and everything is normal, at least for awhile anyway.
Basically its like all software sounds just don't work except playing music thru the speaker.
Is there any way to fix this?
Oh I'm all stock, no flashing or ROMs, anything.

Is anyone having a problem with an inline mic not working at all on their GSIII?
Ever since approx CM 10.1 beta 4 the mic on a couple pairs of headphone no longer works. The mic no longer receives sound during calls and pushing the single button has no effect in music players like it used to. Headphone ear buds still play sound just fine.
I updated to the most recent nightly and problem still persists.
I'm just not 100% sure it its a problem with the ROM or if coincidentally for some reason my headphone jack has failed and is no longer receiving mic signals.
Anyone else having this problem or know a fix for it?
Odin back to stock and test. Then you will have your answer.

I've had lots of random issues in the past where Poweramp wouldn't respond to the buttons on the earbuds (never used one with a mic). Would work fine for a while, then stop. Poweramp is almost never updated. So that has to be a CM problem.
Also, Tasker was no longer reading my notifications to me while my earbuds where plugged in. Worked fine for months on every nightly up to a certain point. No longer works. I think headset plugged isn't being registered within the OS anymore.
My money is on CM bug.
Weird definitely. I figured there being no talk of it it wasn't an issue, only person to ask this lol... Hopefully it is a bug within cm only though. Someone pull system/usr/keychars|key layout/general file and compare them, I fixed this issue with LiquidSmooth 2.2 release which in turn fixed Carbon's exact issue. Maybe they changed something and/broke something.

Yes compare the "general" in system/usr/keylayout & keychars... I just put them side by side in notepad and scroll and check to see I'd they're different in any way at all. Better yet you can just push them, remove the current ones and replace them with new ones and then reboot.... That's how I fixed the issue with Liquid a while back surprisingly lol.

Well the news is in.
Running stock Touchwiz rom the inline mic worked perfectly with calls and controlling music.
But back on CM 10.1 latest nightly and it no longer works again.
on a side note I'm pretty pissed. Some how between the odin flashing of stock and cwm flash of CM 10.1 half the **** on my sd card including my titaniumbackups and my nandroid backs up are no where to be found. My music and several other old app folders are still on the card but not the actual important stuff I needed to restore. Whats weird is my SD card still shows the same amount of data on the card but I can't find any of it anywhere.
