I installed the Xfinity TV Player App on my Epic 4g yesterday (stock FC09) and I am having a weird problem since where I am unable to hear any sounds from my phone speaker (media, system sounds, phone calls) except for notifications/ring tones. The microphone also does not seem to be working during my phone calls since the person on the other end cannot hear me. However, the speakers and microphone work just fine if I use my earbuds - I would just prefer to not have to pull them out all the time just to answer a phone call. It can't be a hardware problem with my phone since I hear ring tones just fine, so I figure it has to be a software problem.
All volumes in my sound settings are at max. Powering off and turning back on the phone doesn't fix it. I have uninstalled and re-installed and uninstalled the Xfinity player app with no change. (I don't know if this is relevant, but when I installed the app, after installation I got the "low internal memory" message and then when I uninstalled, it gave me a message that it did not uninstall properly.)
I would prefer not to hard reset my phone if possible, but I can't think of anything else I might try. Any input would be much appreciated - thank you!

I've had a O2 XDA Orbit for about 3 months now without any problems, but it seems to devloped a strange fautl today.
This morning (around 7am) the alarm went off as usual, but come about 10 when I tried to make a phone call the call was placed but I could not hear the other person (and she could not hear me). I checked out the phone and noticed that both volume sliders where set to off, changing them and I still could not get any sound out of the device.
In Settings Sounds & Notifications when I press the play button theres no sound, and trying the built in sound/video/midi results in no sound.
Oddly when someone calls, I changed the ring tone to an mp3 wich will play, but again I cant hear the caller, or they hear me.
I've done a soft reboot, with no help, before I tired a hard reset I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas?
I'm having exactly the same problem. If anyone has any advice regarding this I'd be greatly apperciated!
So I've been browsing the forums trying to look for anyone with a similar issue but to no avail. Now I'm not sure if this issue pertains to CM9 but I've noticed that ever since I've flashed RC1 or a later nightly, every app that uses the microphone reverts the phone speaker to call speaker. This is highly irritating as I have to put my ear to the phone every time I want to hear say, music, notifications etc. I usually reset this by plugging in a pair of headphones and then taking it back out, however the problem still persists every time I use the mic. This does not happen during calls so that's fine.
I am quite certain that this isn't hardware related because it only happens after using the microphone through some app and resets itself using the headphone workaround or a reboot. Again, I don't know if this is a singled out issue or if it pertains to the phone or the latest CM9 ROM.
Any help would be appreciated.
So after updating to RC2 and then again to the latest Nightly (20120802) I still have no luck with my loud speaker and my call speaker. To test this I usually use the Tune Me app and mess around with it and record some things but after using the app, instead of playing through the loud speaker like its supposed to, it plays audio through the call speaker.
Also, when I previewed CM10 and was playing around with Google Now with voice the same thing occurred. I don't know if there's a conflicting issue with some apps I've installed or something that installing the ROM did but any form of support would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I need help!
My father has been using his HTC Desire for quite some time.
Recently when he receives incoming calls, the ringtone cannot be heard at all. the vibration also suddenly stopped working.
This points to a speaker problem but the strange thing is, when the phone is rebooted, the speaker actually outputs the HTC startup sound and i can hear it.
Also, when i play music, i can hear the music but it is very soft (even at max volume). It was not like this before.
I have checked all settings, the phone's incoming call tone is set to maximum and is not silent.
Is there any method, way, app, software i can use to test the speaker? Is it a corruption problem or an app issue?
I have tried rebooting the phone but to no avail. Thanks!
This is the weirdest problem:
My phone doesn't ring. My phone makes no sound at all. When I change ringtone in Settings I don't hear the tone I select. When I play a song with a player, no sound. And... the player freezes its timer almost immediately, as if it decides to stop since it can't make itself heard.
However, when I pair with a BT headset, all sounds are there. The only salient thing is that ringtones sound very distorted and slow, while sounds from a player or radio are OK.
When did this start? I really don't know. I first suspected Macrodroid (which had a scenario where notification sounds were turned off at night), but I don't think that's it.
What did I try: I even tried a factory reset but even in a pristine state it won't make a sound.
Could this mean that the speaker is broken? Is there a sure way to check this?
Rooted H815, stock rom V10a
Well, went to Service Menu with 277634#*#. Tried Ringtone. No sound.
But... when I get a call and turn to speakerphone, it works. So the speaker's OK. ???
Hello, I just had no sound when playing music/video, when I play them nothing comes out of the speaker but I did restart and everything is ok now. That's weird I almost thought that something is wrong with my speaker/phone. Has anyone experienced same problem?
P.S. Just before doing this I connected my device to PC and uploaded new songs.
Hello!
I have this weird issue when I try to answer/make a phone call where I can only listen to them through the loudspeaker... The oled earpiece seems to not work, I'm kind of thinking that this may be a software issue as I've tried listening WhatsApp audios through the "earpiece" and they sound fine... Apparently the phone calls are the only problem...
I did a factory reset, and it worked for the first phone call and then it stopped giving me any sound
Any idea how can I fix this?
Thank you in advance
In the phone app, go to call settings then additional settings, then turn off hearing aid compatibility. This fixed the issue for my friends LG G8. When I enabled it, the issue returned.
