[Q] Speaker Randomly Stopped Working?

Howdy all,
The other day my other halfs' Wildfires' speaker decided to stop working for no reason. Can still make phonecalls etc, and the headphones work, but its like its stuck on silent all the time!
Read somewhere it could be to do with a recently installed app, so factory reset it but no change. Also saw it could be something to do with something in the headphone socket not clicking back properly when they are removed, but she's never used the headphones, but tried that anyway, still with no luck.
Never been flashed or anything, totally standard.
Any ideas?
Many thanks, Tarq

Perhaps it is me, but what do you mean by this?
1. You cannot go out of silent mode in terms of "set phone volume to vibrate or noice" by using the volume buttons. In that case:
- make sure that your volume buttons work (by using them to regulate audio of, for example, your radio).
- try if you can solve the problem by going into "options of your phone - sound".
If they do not work, try to flash a ruu. If still not solved, I'm afraid you should open your phone to see if the connectors of the volume buttons are still in place (i've had this with my previous phone). But perhaps wait for other advice before doing so
2. You can get out of the silent ringer mode, but still the phone doesnt make any noice. My best guess then is that it related to software in the system folder which controls your device at the system level, or perhaps with the kernel?
I do not know if the the systemfolder is restored when you do a factory reset..
It couldn't do harm if you flash a ruu in my opinion. The all software related issues are ruled out then.
It can't be the hardware as you can still hear people talking to you while phoning without headset. Nor can it be a messed up jack-in, as all the sound should be transfered to the headphone, and it shouldn't be possible to call and here people without headset.
To summerize: I think it is still software, and that it should be possible to solve it by flashing a kernel or restoring bynusing a RUU.

[Q] Distorted Audio Sound Custom Roms?

So is anyone experiencing distorted sounds after flashing a custom rom? Whenever I ask google now something and it does that chime duu ding, in between there is a distorted sound, also if I play music when there is bass, it becomes distorted. I flashed multiple roms and there is always a distorted sound which is annoying me like crazy, when i went back to a stock rom, it sounds normal no distortions, but then when i go back to a custom one, distortion , anyone know whats wrong?

samsung note korean shv-e160s 4.1.2
pls help this noob......

distorted audio
fixed!!!!
i have the same issue of distorted sound....
first i didnt believe that it is earphone socket because it was happen when im installing custom rom.
after several test the i found out that installing a custom rom and xloud is just a co-incidence of having a faulty earphone socket.
if u cannot replace ur earphone socket make a way to full up the second pin (from the top) of earphone jack like the way i do and your stereo sound with superbass(poweramp) will kick-in.

Sounds like a 56k modem

Hi all
I just received my Tmobile Note 3 today and I can hear a strange sound coming from the earpiece. I just noticed it now when I tried to make a call.
It sounds like a screeching 56K modem - do you remember that sound whenthe modem starts to dial, sometimes the sound is like when there is an interference when you are near a PA system...
It is louder at the beginning of a re-start just before the main screen comes.
I have listened to my S3 and S4 in the same location, and they are silent.
I have restarted a few times, disabled wifi and mobile internet, removed sim card, factory reset from recovery to no avail. Changed location to another room. The sound coming from the earpiece is still there.
Can you please try listening to your phone if you can hear anything...
Thanks a lot

Mine doesn't do that.

[Q] [8.4] Lack of sound with speakers working properly.

Guys,
Don't know why or how this happened but from one day to another my tablet has lost the capacity to produce sound for example with music, youtube etc.. But the speakers DO work because when I press the shutter button on camera it makes the kwnown sound, when a notification arrives it sounds it and so forth....
I've changed roms, made factory reset, now I'm back with the stock samsung rom but still can't get sound to work with basically any applicacion.
With headphones there isn't a problem, its just the speakers. So weird.
Any ideas?

I have a feeling the speakers are damaged from water damage or something to that lines, this isn't fixable with software

i've made a factory reset and it the same...
i can listen music on a bleutooth device.
i'm downloading the RUU zip to try a total clean.

thanks

No solution, but I´ve since 2 days the same problem. Phone is on Stock, Hardreset did not helped ;-(
Phone is unuseable.

I had the same issue and they wanted $80 to replace the mic. In the end I just had the whole phone replaced. Funny enough, the second one had the same problem, until I got this one.
Could be a bad batch?

hi,
I assume this is a stock version and you didn't do any mods on it.
1. after you did factory reset, did you sync your profiles or you just tried listening and talking and problems were still there?
2. usually after factory reset been done, and still having issues, RUU is the best bet. if after that you still have issues then you should consider replacing parts or actual phone.

i did a factory reset and a RUU but still the same... i sent the phone at an office but they didn't find how to fix it.
i sent the phone back to the seller for refund.
i had a HTC one M7 with the pink camera problem and after that the one M9 with this problem... so i change the brand.
now i have a Xiaomi phone.

I'm really sorry that you had to have this experience with HTC. In my signature you'll see all the ones I had and no issues. Again, sorry and hope it worked out for you without anymore issues cause I know how annoying it is.
