People have been complaining about not being able to hear me during calls. I had someone call my home phone from my cell and the voice sounds extremely muffled and quiet; however, regular voice recorder through a separate apps works fine.
I'm running the latest radio (UVMC6). This problem started while using the ParanoidAndroid ROM. I have since switched to HellyBean but that has not fixed the problem. Toggling noise supression doesn't seem to fix the issue either...any ideas?
only thing i can recommend is try a clean install format system in mounts and storage, and wipe data factory reset, wipe cache/dalvik ,and try to flash the ROM again to see if the problem is still there you pretty much have tried everything which is good. do you remember any ROM where this issue was not occurring ???

I was using SlimStar before PA and the first few build of PA seemed fine as well. Started happening about a month ago. I did a clean install going from PA to Helly. I'll try it again and see if it works.
Also the new PA roms have been using custom kernels , PAC is really picky the way it boots up and if you don't have the MC6 radio and a certain kernel sometimes wont boot i know this has nothing to do with your issue but just thought I'd let you know. and is just muffled or literally really low volume ??have you tried with headphones to see if this problem is there ??
Seems to happen randomly to some on 4.2.2 roms.
Only thing I can suggest is TW 4.1.2 roms.

Still no dice... Currently running Shadow 1.4 ROM and call recipients still complain about my voice being too quiet/dropping in and out.
Could it be a hardware issue perhaps?

Yup. Bad microphone? Get any water in it? Or a carrier issue...bad signal? I assume you have newest radio...or it wouldn't work at all.
Did you try a couple 4.1.2 roms to be sure. Maybe even try stock....or ics even. Just to be sure.
Did you go into phone settings and check enable noise surpression.

NOT SOLVED YET
Recently I have been having a problem with my gs3 (d2att version). For some reason whenever I have headphones plugged in and I play music, my sound stops for a brief second whenever I touch the screen. It sort of turns off back on very briefly but its incredibly annoying. It first happened on Carbon ROM 1.5 and then I installed CyanogenMod Nightlies and it happened right after the fresh boot, now I tried Liquid Smooth Stable. They all are doing it. It happens whenever I open apps or like the app drawer or anything in the browser. It doesn't always happen, like when I press the keys on the keyboard it doesn't do it.
Is this a 4.2.2 problem? I feel I would have seen more if that's it. Also I have tried multiple music apps (apollo Google music and one more) and multiple head phones and aux cables.
Please let me know if anyone has any way to fix this or needs more information to solve this. Thanks.

Does it happen out of fresh/clean flash? Before you restore anything that is.

Umm, it's a really odd issue. Perhaps try changing your gov/scheduler. I think it needs a little bit more performance to work fine.

So i tried flashing stock ROM which fixed it, but when I went back to a 4.2.2 ROM it broke it. Can anyone else confirm they are having his crackle/pop sound on 4.2.2 ROMs? Also what Liquid are you running?

A quick fix for now is to just turn off touch sounds in Settings/Sound. Seems to work okay right now.

Not entirely. If you have touch sounds and play certain sounds like volume changing and notifications still cause it to crack. Even if you disable every sound under the sound menu you will hit the crackle every now and then.
EDIT: it works on tasks AOKP of you disable touch sound, doesn't work on Cyanogenmod
My external speaker stopped working, and I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue. The phone doesn't ring, and if I try and play anything through the external speakers no sound comes out. My headphone jack is working, and I'm able to make/hear calls.
I'm running CM 10.1.3, and I've been running this rom without any problems for a while. In trying to fix/troubleshot this issue I ran across the Galaxy S3 hardware test via the phone/dialer *#0*#, but this doesn't work in CM. Is there any way to check hardware in CM? Or does anyone know how to fix this if it is indeed a software problem?
I've checked all my volume settings and tried the following:
Rebooting
Re-installing CM, multiple versions
Pulling the Battery
Sounds like some kind of hardware failure. Flash back to stock after you do a nandroid to make sure.

It seemed like a hardware issue to me too, then I did a factory reset and flashed a stock 4.3 ROM and the sound magically started working again!
Did you have the "Silent" profile on when on Cyanogenmod?

Android 4.4 Roms on my Galaxy Note II have been causing headphone audio problems. Otherwise audio works fine, as with any other non 4.4 rom. Has this been happening to anyone else, and if so, does anyone have a solution? =/ Been looking forward to 4.4 for monthes, this is just so disappointing.

Try viber4android on the play store. Works great.

What type of problems are you having. There's a general low audio volume on the 4.4 roms but other than that there's no issues with audio for me. I'm running omnirom 4.4.2
Explanation
It's strange. Once I have it installed, I have sound without headphones. However if i plug in the headphones, I do not get any sound. It sort of goes out after a certain point and doesn't come back unless I take out headphones again and play sound THEN plug in headphones.
Just tried viper4android and it keeps asking me to verify if its rooted -.-.
I get random sounds like the pop sound when I hit a group folder, but only get sound otherwise on apps if i take headphone out, press play or whatever, then plug headphone in

I had the same problem for the longest time. If you move from anything pre 4.4 to 4.4 you get that effect. I have solved the problem by doing a full factory reset, cache wipe, dalvik wipe, and the secret is wiping internal storage as well but I also wipe system but I'm fairly certain it has to do with internal storage but I wipe all of those to be sure and it fixes the problem. Hope this helps! I use twrp so I can't confirm it works with cwm or philz
Thank you so much dadudeguy44. It's worth a try, will have to figure it out since I'm still relatively new to rooting

I'm not sure what the problem is. I was on a ROM, updated to the next version of that ROM and the problem came back. I wiped everything but systen and reflashed and problem came back then wiped everything including system and reflashed and problem solved so it has to do with system. Side note wiping system on my cwm will wipe EVERYTHING including your external sd and all the data on your phone. I learned the hard way but I think I was on an older version of cwm. I have used twrp ever since. Let me know how it works out for ya
I thought id take your advice and try twrm but when I tried to install through goomanager I still end up booting into cwm. Any idea why that might be hapoening ?

I think this is a motherboard problem already....
Guys, I have this one major issue with audio in my phone and its the rarest of the problems! The whole audio output stops completely. By completely, i mean even the receiver sound. completely dumb! cant hear anything if someone calls me. This has been occurring since a month or so. I am running on Cyanogenmod 11 M8. Even if i restart the phone its stays the same way. And all of sudden, randomly, the audio back again, working properly. when it goes dumb it stays like that for 5 6 hours. it happens quite often. this is throwing me off totally.
Device : Galaxy S3 SGH i747 - At&t
This problem happens:
1) when i am on call, suddenly it goes mute.
2) when the phone is kept idle for more than 3 4 hrs. So every morning its dumb when i wake up.
These are what I've tried and what I've found out:
1) I reverted back to stock 4.3 to check if its the problem with audio hardware. But in stock it worked perfectly and flawlessly. no issues there. SO its definitely got to do with cyanogenmod.
2) I flashed ktoonsez kernel on CM 11 M8, to check if its kernel problem. But its happening again. SO its not the problem with kernel.
3) I recently found out that if I wipe the cache from recovery, audio is back working. SO its definitely something in the cache thats messing with the audio. Some app may be.
this thread can be referred for more details on this issue:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/81373-audio-stops-working-from-time-to-time/
and I dont know what else to do now. Ive tried uninstalling all the apps that access audio. But the problem still persists.
I really really need help fixing this one. PLEASE HELP.

I've had that issue a month or two ago but haven't seen it on the latest ROMs. I'm not sure what causes it but I would suggest you flash another ROM if CM messes up with your sound (or another version of CM).

Hi, Thanks for the response. I personally like CM and the extent of customization it offers. I actually dont mind switching cuz sound is bigger deal. Would you mind suggesting ROMs that are similar or comes closer to CM and also good at the same time? which ROM are you on?

Hey it got fixed in the latest nightly ( cm-11-20140721-NIGHTLY ). I had put it in cyanogenmod forum, I guess they read the issue and fixed it. Audio is perfectly fine now! Feels so great to use cyanogenmod again.
Thank you cyanogenmod!
I have this issue too but it doesn't have to do with the audio disappearing; it's simply gone from the get-go after clean flashing a ROM.
As you've said, stock FW and ROM works fine, but anything custom will just totally break it. Seems to be a very isolated issue with the phone itself, I've searched all over for people with the same problem but could never find anything.

Oh. It used to happen to me once or twice. No audio when I install CM, after it boots the first time. I think you should check the new nightly of 7/23. Looks like its fixed. They've fixed a number of audio issues over the last few nightlies. And I've always preferred CM over any other roms, so I've no idea about why it isn't working on other roms.

Thanks for the suggestion, I may as well give it a try since most everything else I've tried has had the same issue.
edit:
Clean flashed latest CM nightly, sound worked for around 2 minutes, then stopped when I plugged headphones in. Rebooted, got it to work via speakers again but then DSP manager force closed and left me without sound.
Rebooted into recovery, cleared cache, still no dice.
Going to try another clean flash to see if I can get sound to last a while longer.
edit 2: It seems to be screwed completely now, no sound after install + reboot.
