Lost All System Sounds - Help?? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I need some help as ive seem to have lost all my system sounds. Its the sound of clicking the softkeys, or hitting the app drawer button. I can hear them when i have my headphones on, but nothing when using the speaker. Everything else works, like games and videos, notifications. Anyone know what caused this?
Im running CM9 w/ Franco kernel.
Thanks.

Wipe and reflash. Or go through all your settings and see if you accidentally ticked something.
bow chicka wow wow.

Crap! I don't even know how this happened. All volumes are up, and I'm only hearing system sounds through my headphones. Like the lock/unlock sounds. So strange....

Try plugging in and unplugging your headphone a couple of times.

Actually ended up wiping as nothing worked. Started fresh and now its working fine. Just not sure what exactly caused it in the first place. At least then I would avoid having it happen again.

Crackly Sounds While Playing Audio

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...

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!

Random instant reboot?

I've been on aokp milestone 5.2 for a few days and I didn't know if it was related to the rom or something I did or whatever but I'll be texting or on Facebook or doin something and my phone will just go to the boot animation of the pink unicorn. And I should probably mention that the colors are out of whack for a few seconds before it goes back to normal and boots up.
Edit: Everything's still there when it boots up everything's where it should be and nothing is missing or anything it just literally reboots instantly without warning or notice.
Edit: Could it be that I'm using advanced task killer? I figured it was okay since it was on the high security level setting, just throwing that out there
Thanks for any help.

No solution to this? It's the same as when I posted this thread, 100% random as far as I can tell. I don't notice anything specific that I'm doing when the reboots happen either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've got no help but I can say that this ROM ran totally smooth for me for a while and then suddenly got laggy, and apps have begun not responding regularly.

It is usually either a kernel panic or running out of RAM. You could try the V6 Supercharger for the RAM issue. As for the other I would always try odin clean stock then root and flash ROM and do not restore any data. Download and reinstall 3rd party apps fresh.

Use to happen to me also when i was on AOKP. I only noticed it when i was listening to my music tho....all my VC settings stayed the same after it booted back up so like you said it was just a random reboot. I installed V6 and that worked for the most part. The reboots did start back later on down the road tho.....

If by stock battery you mean the battery it came with then yes. I'm also running aggressive settings with v6 supercharger.
My only real concern was if it was damaging my phone in any way, or if something had already been damaged. But as I've said I really can't see anything out of whack aside from the reboots and colors. (the colors get inverted or negative or something for a few seconds on pink unicorn boot animation then goes back to normal and boots up)

This also happens to me. Same way. But usually when backing out of a text or when ending a phone call. Stock battery. V6 and no v6. Stock kernel and nyan, sammi, and shadow. What I noticed about the reboot is that it doesn't scan sd card or media.

Solution to this is to go back to a TW based rom...try sleeper or the peoples rom, joy and profit

Problem with notification sound

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.

Strange problem with Note 2

My wife's Note 2 completely stock is having this strange problem. Out of nowhere it'll randomly open an app in the background and start playing whatever audio that may come from that app. Like if Pandora opens up it'll start playing whatever station she was listening to last. Or navigation will just start navigating out of nowhere. Very strange. Was wondering if anyone has had this problem or if my wife's phone just thinks it's traveling and wants some good music to listen to. Lol
Thanks

[Q] Inline Mic no longer works [CM 10.1]

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 doubt it is CM.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T999 using xda premium
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.

Like mt3g its the first I've ever heard about it. Just nandroid backup. Odin root 66. Test. Restore nandroid.
At least for me its not too much to do to be certain. Your call though, of course.

You mean comparing the two files?
What am I look for a difference in?
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 I'm flashing stock root66 right now so we'll see if the problem persists there or not first. If not then I'll load CM back in and see what happens and try your idea out.

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.
Always keep a backup of internal stuff, people complain too much for their own mistakes.
