[Q] Audio Problem after Genocide kernel and Cyndiacte Frozen 1.2 - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had both installed but started to get the force close issue where i couldn't start up anything. I then flashed back to stock ec05 with no root and now my audio sounds very bad through my headphones. It sounds "digitized". Sort of like the headphone aren't all the way in but they are. Headphones that are only stereo sound like that and headphones with a mic sound ok but lack bass and the volume is very very low. Is this a known problem after genocide or cyndicate or did i physically break my phone. Also I like to mention that I do irrigation systems for a living and dirt does get in my pockets so could that be the problem?

No audio... help!

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?

Distorted bass (headphone jack)

I am having a problem with the headphone output. When listening to anything bass heavy... such as house music, the bass is distorted. Its sounds almost as if the headphones I am using are blown. I know this is not the issue because I have tested several different pairs, all with the same result. I even experience this when I have the phone hooked up to my car stereo. Volume isn't an issue and everything else seems to sound fine... its just that bass notes and kick drums sound horrible.
I'm coming from a Vibrant which was a powerhouse with voodoo sound enabled.
I understand that the Yamaha dac in the SGSII is nowhere near as good as the Wolfson used in the SGS... but it shouldn't sound this bad?!?!
I have tried just about every audio/dsp app available to no avail.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Also... not sure if it matters but I am running Juggernaut v3.7
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hmm I was going to suggest you get power amp and just turn down the overall level in the eq. that might help in troubleshooting where in the signal chain the distortion is coming from. If it remains distorted at low level i would assume it wsa a hardware problem.
Ive certainly not any problems with distortion as long as i keep good gain structure in my eq.
I have tried power amp. I also tried lowering all the levels down. Nothing works
I forgot to mention that the problem exists even at the lowest volume settings... quite fustrating
I really hope it isn't faulty hardware... not sure ill be able to get a replacement
Completely different hardware but I had this issue on my HD2 after either making the lower frequency settings too high with other DSP or equalizers or when I used root level volume boosters like Volume Hack+
Are you using a stock (non-flashed non-rooted) build? If not, you can try a nand backup and flash a fresh install of your ROM. Not installing anything and go back to the same songs to see if they distort.
The SGS2 can push a good amount of low frequency granted you have earphones/equipment that can pick up low frequency output. I use it in my cars and with my Sennheiser headphones with no real issues and great output. Even with max volume, no distortion.
The HD2 was capable of only so much before it distorted but I haven't been able to replicate the issue with my SGS2. But then again, I haven't installed DSP or any other 3rd party volume/equalizer apps.
Im running juggernaut 3.7 w/ bullet kernel. To be honest I didnt check what it sounded like prior to rooting and flashing the custom rom. I only installed the dsp apps to fix the problem.
A new release just came out so I will take your advice, wipe and start with a fresh install.
Hope it fixes the problem.... its really driving me nuts.
Have you tried a different ROM? If not, try CM7 Alpha v3. Theres nothing like CM's DSP Manager.
Make a NANDROID backup first, that way if the problem still persists, you can always easily switch back to your current ROM.

Sound through headphones is really wierd...

After a while the sound through my headphones sounded wierd the voices were super low and the bass almost completely gone.. if I play it through power amp with the volume control on right or left meaning only play out of those sides it sounds perfectly normal... but if I place the balance in the middle it back to the wierd sound... any idea what could cause this and how to fix it.
How about your BT ? How does it sound ? I recently paired my E4GT to my Ford (using SYNC) and I noticed the volume was really low, compared to my old Blackberry 8350 (which worked perfectly). Also the quality of the voice seemed much lower when compared to the Blackberry... it doesn't make sense.
The weird part is that media files are playing exactly as before, so the music sounds very good while call quality is ... well it $#!^...

Not sure But an important factor is I did pair my cellphone up with my Car's inbuilt ipod adapter I used a Female ipod to Auxilary adapter to connect my phone to the cars audio system would that have caused it? I tried factory reset everything still sounds the same... I don't know why... would there be any app or program to test the audio quality? like a virtual headphone test or something?
Edit: I played a Dolby headphone test on my phone using the earphones and everything seems okay except for when it does the LFE Hz test at about 80-75 Hz I can't hear anything, but on my computer I can hear all of them here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUrk2W_r5fc

[Q] Random noise on speakerphone

Hey Folks,
I realized an big issue on my phone today:
When I listen to music over headphones, I can hear the music over the speakerphone (the one used while phoning), too. The sound is quite awful and is just some random noise. The issue appears in every music app, but only with headphones plugged in. When listening to loud music with the phone speaker, everything is quite fine. The issue only appears when the volume is nearly or completly turned up to max.
I have rooted my phone with the guide by Darkimmortal and [NUT].
Has anyone noticed the same issue? Might this be an software or an hardware issue?
Thanks

Audio issues with headphones

Hi, only recently, when i plug-in my headphones, the audio comes out with lots of hisses, cracks and glitched sounds.
Every sound generated by the phone (ring tone, phone call, mp3, notifications) is accompained by random noises.
This happened only recently and I cannot figure out what the cause can be. Headphones are the same as always.
The problem doesn't occur when playing sounds trough the built-in speaker.
I tried to install different roms and revert back to stock, but the problem persist.
I guess now this will be a hardware issue?
Try googling it its one of the most common lg g3 problems temp fixes include restarts factory resets and if im not mistaken a diffrent kinda headphone with a slighlty differ plug its most def in the hardware
It's a problem with low impedance headphones. What worked for me was editing the mixer_paths.xml.
