Develop Bugs

Speakerphone issue driving me nuts

I recently purchased a Dash used. I found this site and reflashed using the most recent kavana build. After about 2 days it switched to speakerphone always being on. I reflashed it that night again using the same ROM. Did it again later that night.
I reflashed back to the regular Tmobile ROM and realized it sucked and that I couldn't stand to use it.
So I tried the Ricky's rebuild and it worked fine all yesterday and about 5 minutes ago the same issue popped up.
It seems to be a software based problem because it's fine for a while after each reflash.. so I'd hate to pay my insurance for a new one when it might be a software issue.. anywhere in the registry I should look?

Does it goes to speaker imediately when you answer the phone? Holding down the answer button for 2 seconds swithes the phone to speaker mode.

it occurs on outgoing calls as well so unfortunately I have just removed that from the list of possibilities I believe

This is a weird problem that I have read about on multiple sites..
Seems the only answer I have ever seen was a phone replacement.
I am very curious as to what causes the problem.
Have you tried flashing the Vanilla rom?

haven't tried the vanilla rom yet...
when i went on lunch break i checked my voicemail and it's back to regular mode... this is annoying

[Q] Internal Ear Speaker Not Working

OK so this has been an issue for several months now and its gotten worse.
The ear speaker has been working intermittently and will usually not come on at all.
This seems specific to CM7 because flashing back to CM6 it works fine.
Problem is: Speaker works randomly, at first i thought it was hardware issue but every time a loud sound or voice was played through it would come on.
I would use a saved voicemail and play it a couple times and that would usually kick the speaker to work. But as of recently its doesnt come on at all, only when it wants to.
I have no idea if this would help, but using OSMonitor's log, whenever i tried to play a sound through the ear speaker it would always log audio_disable().
Sometimes reboot works, mostly it doesn't. Ive done clean wipes, fresh installs, and reverting back to previous nightlies and stables. it only has gotten worse with newer updates.
I've looked everywhere for an answer. I dont mind uploading a log, just dont no what to exactly copy for the speaker.

it happpened to me too.
Called tmobile.. pretended to run the test they told me to run.. they then agreen that it was broken internally, and sent me a replacement.
Then I un-rooted my phone, sent it to them, and life is good now
lol
do it..

any other ideas on whats causing this??any solutions besides the return?? ha

I dont know if this is a coincidence or not.. but my speaker died as soon as I flashed the Salsa Slide ROM.
I have had no issues previously.... and I am not trying to pin the blame, it just seems coincidental.
I do have a slide that I bought right at launch, so I dont know if that has anything to do with it...
Either way, I will be calling today to get it replaced because when I flashed back to NB-mod I still could not hear from the internal speaker.

[Q] Sound Issues

i have been having issues with no sound coming from the LG nitro , all of a sudden it cut out yesterday and have hard reset numerous times and 1 out of 4 or 5 reboots the sound comes in but if you power off then on the sound disappears .. this is a stock phone with only root , anybody have any ideas or similiar issues ?

This is not any kind of development related topic but I'd suggest that you bring it in for repair or replacement as that sounds like a hardware issue. Maybe try flashing another rom.

I had a similar issue and ended up returning the phone to bell for a new one.
Here is the long story just in case it helps some one. Like all good Android users I started by rooting my phone, installing ROM Manager and making a nandroid backup. Once this was done I ran rooted stock for a few days. All was well.
Then I started to debloat my phone. After which everything seamed good. Then installed and played with RAM Manager and SD Speed Increase. TBH i did not notice any particular increase in speed on my phone but that might be due to the following issue.
After all this I decided to run a few test by using the phone into the ground. Added a bluetooth headset, while using navigation and making several calls. It was all running very well until I rebooted. Once rebooted whenever I connect my bluetooth headset I was no longer able to make calls. The phone dialer would completely lag out until I de-activated bluetooth. The the 10 or so test calls I tried making would all go through at once. This wasn't the end of the word for me so I continued to use the phone as everything else was working fine. The things started degrading by which time I was on the new CM9 nightly build. The phone had started being really sluggish. I finally decided to return my phone after it would no longer play any sound and whenever it called to any sound related function would lag out and/or reboot. The same behavior happen in stock, cm9 and NO! NO! ROMs. I tried flashing a few roms in a last ditch effort.
I could be wrong by my conclusion is that the audio portion of the snapdargon chip fried and since these phone are basically just 1 chip the phone simply degraded from there.
I would like to know of anyone else has had similar issue or if I just got a lemon and also your take on the cause of the issue.
Hope this can help someone.
Thanks!
Edit: Returned my phone for a new one and I've been flashing CM9 since the first release and no issues. I'm actually really happy with the replacement and would recommend the phone as long as you don't get a lemon ;-)

Inconsistent Playing of Touch Sounds

So I am hoping someone with some real hardware/software knowledge can provide some input...
I recently received my warranty replacement unit because of unresponsive touch and phantom touches. My new unit seems to work perfectly, except now every 10 to 20 touches, the touch will register, but the touch sound "click" doesn't play (if I put my ear close to the speaker, I can hear the speaker activating though). Repeated touches (like repeatedly pressing back) won't reproduce the problem, but more random timing and touches (like in regular use or typing) will. I'm wondering if anyone thinks this is a hardware issue, or some component of the stock software that wouldn't have been overwritten between the update to JSS15Q, and then to JSS15R (it happens in all three versions).
Think I should go for another replacement? Or do you think I should root and unlock, and see if a full installation of a ROM fixes it. It's definitely a sign that something is wrong and it's annoying, I just can't figure out if it's software or hardware related. I'm definitely not going to just ignore it.
(SIDE STORY: When I called nexus help for my first unit, the guy was so helpful and took my word that I had already tried factory resets, and set me up for an RMA. My call on this unit, the woman told me to reboot and toggle touch sounds, and kind of rudely insisted that I was on 4.3 and that Build Version (e.g. JSS15R) had nothing to do with software!! :what: She then told me she'd send me an email with more troubleshooting steps, which never came. I had figured I'd wait for the email, so that I had her name for my next call. Totally unacceptable.)

You come off as just looking for a reason to complain at this point, there doesn't seem to be any real problem with your device other than you being overly picky
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4

You're completely right. I was so delighted when I managed to find something wrong with my new tablet...
Seriously? You come off as just a worthless ass of a poster at this point. The problem is there, and can be consistently reproduced. I press home and it clicks, and five seconds later I press home and it doesn't click. Your opinion on whether this is a "real problem" or me being overly "picky" is completely irrelevant. It is most certainly real and not normal, and indicates either some software or driver bug on my device, or a strange hardware malfunction. My previous unit (which had very real problems) did not have this problem.
I hope I speak for others here, when I tell you to **** off unless you have something worthwhile to contribute. Just because you don't think something is important, annoying, significant, etc. doesn't make it any less so for someone else.

Do you have this issue with SwiftKey?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Yeah. It's actually everywhere throughout the OS. System settings, stock launcher, Nova launcher, Swiftkey, AOSP keyboard, etc.

I have the opposite problem as you. When muted, every 20 or 30 taps I will get a 'pop' from the speakers, similar to the sound of plugging a guitar into an amp when it's on. Pretty bloody annoying, but I don't want to risk returning it for receiving a unit with worse problems.

Exactly my thoughts on going through another RMA. But I do feel that it's reasonable to expect a properly functioning tablet on our parts. What you're experiencing is strange. I can tell you that on my Optimus G, when muted, I can hear a faint speaker "activation". Sounds like maybe yours is a hardware issue. Are you stock, or have you tried flashing other ROMs?

Well, I installed CM10.2 last night, and the problem went away. Maybe you might want to try CM, or even just unlocking and reflashing stock JSS15R. You might get lucky with your popping noises.

FYI: I've seen this on multiple tablets (TF101, GTab, Nooks, 2012N7, 2013N7) with different customed ROMs.
So, I wouldn't blame it specially on the Tab. In fact, I see this issue less often on the 2013N7. It usually happens
after I just freshly loaded a new ROM.

So a couple of nights ago, I decided to try disabling touch sounds in settings. Since doing that I haven't heard a single pop from the speakers. Looks like it was either the touch sounds 'leaking' or the speakers popping from being activated, which they do even when muted (the mute being software)
I'm quite happy with this fix, since the tablet is muted 99.5% of the time, and I don't care for the touch sounds anyway.

Hi Folk's,
Sorry to drag up an old post, but I've noticed my N7 shows this behaviour on KitKat as well.
It misses the touch sound if you pause for about 5 secs during input. Does it every time and it's very annoying. I've tried a couple of different KK roms and it does the same on all of them.
Just tried going back to CM10.2 (JB 4.3) and it works fine!
Does anyone know the cure for this, apart from going back to JB, please? Would really like to be running KK, but this bug is bugging me!
Thanks for any info.
Cheers

@Petermira @Xi2or @spackmanbr
I have this same behavior on a stock 4.4.2 S3.
After 5 seconds, if I click anything UI (keyboard, Soft buttons, shortcuts, toggles) there is no sound. If I quickly click again and keep clicking, the sounds work as normal. It's definitely ROM related but is there a fix???
UPDATE: Issue does not happen with headphones plugged in. STRANGE!!!
UPDATE: Issue does not happen if I keep a song playing in Power Amp or similar.
Affected UI items include:
- keyboard
- shortcuts
- toggles
- capacitive buttons
- dialer pad
- etc.

Random reboots

Hiya folks,
Just wondering if anybody has been experiencing random reboots on the OP3. Have been experiencing em on 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 about twice a day since I got the phone four days ago. Tried a cache wipe/hard reset but to no avail. Haven't been able to reproduce the reboots. Just happen at completely random times, while writing an email, making a call, or connecting to the car Bluetooth. Phone is perfectly responsive and stable otherwise!
Have asked Amazon for a replacement, but I'm wondering if this is something that's been noticed by anybody else. No mods done, completely stock. Running dual sims (Vodafone and Jio VoLTE).
Attaching a screenshot of how the battery page shows the reboots.

Yeah, they happen for me periodically. Not nearly as often as yours though. Mine is maybe once or twice a week max. But yes, slightly annoying.
Phone is completely stock, locked, unrooted. Running 3.2.2.

Haven't had a single random reboot yet, had the phone for about a month now. Started with 3.1.3, then 3.2.1, now 3.2.2, rooted, running xposed (not a lot of modules).
What are you doing when the reboots happen (an app issue)?

It's been all over the place, but often when the screen was actually off! The way I would know would be I'd pick up the phone and see that it asks for the PIN post reboot. If it helps, I've enabled encryption. I also have a work (exchange) email account set up as a device admin
I know there's ways of investigating this with logcats and last_kmsg, but I've had the phone 4 days and I cant imagine why it's spontaneously rebooting while doing literally nothing. Seeing as hardly anybody has had similar reboots (on XDA/OnePlus forums), could this be a hardware issue at all? I could possibly try reflashing the entire phone, but that would essentially be the same as a wiping data/cache, right?

Here's an idea - my LTE data/VoLTE is extremely spotty (on Reliance Jio which is in a beta test stage) - disconnects and connects VERY frequently, could that be triggering reboots at the baseband level? Now throwing ideas at the wall!

Mine had random reboot issues recently on a trip. It only seemed to happen when I was using Google navigation combined with listening to music on my bluetooth headphones. I haven't tried that combination since the trip and haven't had any reboots since then.

same issue
the reboots are random, and i could only know that the phone has rebooted itself if it ask for a pin upon scanning finger, went to service center and has OS flashed, but the problem still persist, for me some time when the phone hangs, some kind of pixels form on the screen, attaching a sample photo for reference, anybody experiencing this issue or am i the only one, and today the phone has completely stopped working, it is not switching on.

Wow that is substantially worrying, and almost certainly not just a software issue I reckon. Try getting a replacement maybe? - or atleast ask the service folks for a mainboard replacement. Anybody else with reboot issues?
Doesn't really seem to be an OS bug, unless it happens in very niche use cases which I don't have anyway! Getting the replacement on Tuesday, fingers crossed for that one!

My friend and I both got a one plus 3. He does not have this problem but I have.
The reboot is random but usually happens during charging. Sometimes it even turns off.
I have tried to ask for a replacement but they rejected me. Still communicating with the support staffs

Went to service center in Gurgaon, getting a replacement for motherboard, as oneplus policy doesn't give replacement handset, have to SETTLE for this, i dont know how many days this whole process is going to take, will update you guys about it when i get the phone back.

I have the same issue, random reboots usually when screen is off.
3.2.1, root + xposed... for me it started with 3.2.0 update

I experienced a similar scenario twice, only seems to happen on long trips, 3+ hours. I was using Waze with Plex streaming audio over car Bluetooth. I have not had this on shorter trips, 1-2 hours. I'm typically plugged into the dash car charger. Otherwise, haven't had issues. Never rooted 3.2.2.

Situation Update
Got the replacement OP3 on August 9. Have now seen 2 random reboots since. Once while paired to the car Bluetooth, once after finishing a call.
I have till August 19 to decide whether to keep this device or ask for replacement number two! Overall, the reboot situation is a lot better on this device, but I can't help wonder - why any at all?
Seems at this point to either be a bug with the Bluetooth implementation AND/OR with the dual SIM functionality where repeated switching between SIMs for every call. (I use one SIM for calls and texts, another for data)
Can anyone confirm the situation on a custom ROM as opposed to stock? I'm running stock 3.2.2

Aaaaand now we have an ota claiming to fix 'auto-reboot issues' - 3.2.4 :laugh:
The reboots were so sparsely documented compared to the other stuff that I ended up getting a replacement for a s/w issue!
Anyway - you folks reboot free now? Post results with 3.2.4 please

I had three back to back random reboots while using Google Maps and Amazon Kindle in the background. Weird.
I've yet to have a random reboot on 3.2.4

Had several reboots while driving and navigating on google maps one after the other. Maybe it is to do with the GPS sensor but its annoying coz you need it most when u r navigating turn by turn

Agree. It happens only when I drive with gmaps running on background. When the screen times out, the phone, instead of shutting down the display, goes to hard reboot.
I've never had this issue until I moved to the latest update. Weird. Annoying.

I had my first reboot a few hours ago (with 3.2.4). I was connected to Bluetooth in my Car. Noticed it, as my car told me that mein Phone is now connected. No gmaps or something with GPS runinng.
Looks like Bluetooth is the Problem.
