[Q] Multimedia sound only through earphones - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi all,
Music and videos only sound on my new Nexys through earphones. Other sounds like alarms and notifications do through speakers. I don't know if it is a hardware o a sofware issue.
Thanks in advance.
PS It's a wifi 32 rooted kitkat KRT16S

I have the same problem as well. Speaker just chooses not to play the multimedia sounds, but only the alarm and notification sounds through the speakers. My device is a 16Gb Wi-Fi model, stock, unrooted.
It seems that this problem emerged when I upgraded to 4.4.2. I sent it to tech support in the Czech Republic twice, through ASUS customer support, but they keep telling me there is no problem. However, I do not know why, the tablet both times returned with an earlier version of android. After I upgrade it to 4.4.2 from the notification I receive, multimedia sound from speaker plays fine for a couple of days, but stops after that.
Anybody have an update on this? I have subscribed to the thread to see if you guys know anything new!

[Q] Which Headset provides system sounds

Hi all,
I come from the TP2 and used my jabra JX10 9old, 1st version) on it.
The system sounds were forwarded to the headset without problem. I heard the noticiation, alarm or ringtone as if it was coming from the internal speaker.
Connecting the same headset to the DHD now, I hear only a 'signal' informing that I have an incoming call.
Deciding that I need a newer headset to go with the new phone I tried a few headsets but get the impression that it is not possible to hear system sounds. Can somebody please confirm this possibility with any of the BT headsets around.
If I put an 'oldphone' as a ringtone, I want to hear that 'oldphone' when I get a call. Same more incoming emails, sms etc. Please advise which headset is capable of doing so.
I just tried the Jabra extreme. Music is being forwarded if I play it, but the system sounds are not coming through, this although the BT settings show that phone and media sounds are forwarded to the headeset.
with many thanks for a good advise,
Ruud
this is a tricky one... have you installed any custom roms etc?

Hi fkofilee,
no, I am still on stock-rom, purchased in Russia from one of the official dealers proposed on HTC's website. I am quite sure that I am fully original.
For the moment I am not into flashing another ROM. I came to the HDH with the main hope that this continously flashing would stop. It just takes too much time and it never was perfect anyway.
About the topic at hand :
I now have tried Jabra JX10 series 2, Jabra extreme and Jabra Stone on my DHD. All of which show that they forward phone and media, but none of them is giving me ringtones, notifications & alarm at the moment they sound at the phone.
If this is standard Android, next question would be if somebody has an additional software which is able to arrange this, I would be happy to try.
regards,
Ruud
Still hoping
Hi all,
added the Plantronic Voyager Pro to the mix, same result. Not even showing phone audio and media, but only phone audio. Though it was certainly a better fit for my ears, the fact that one more is lacking the result I am seeking was not convincing enough to purchase it.
Anyone please, who is able to get system sounds through Bluetooth. I really liked it with my TP2, to be "in meetings" not disturbing anyone, but being informed about all that my phone usually barks at me.
Regards,
Ruud

Bluetooth problem!! Can anyone help?

Hi guys,
Because of this problem I get almost sorry that I had taken a Galaxy Nexus.
I can pair Nexus with my carkit (parrot) and I can play audio through the speakers.
My problem is: When I call or receive a call I can hear almost nothing. Sound is so low that I can not even notice that the sound from the speakers or coming from the phone. I am using Volume+ too but nothing helps!!
It's look like that Nexus somehow even loses the connection, without any reason.
It's a rooted Nexus and running on AOKP.
Is there a better ROM for my bluetooth issue or do you guys have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance..
No one??
Has nobody has an idea or experince with this??
The market description for Volume+ says:
A Cyanogen Mod 7 or MIUI ROM is HIGHLY recommended. Running this app on a Stock ROM/Kernel may result in it not working, being far too quiet, or getting even quieter. PLEASE don't comment or rate badly if you are on a Stock ROM as this is most likely the problem.

The feature list for AOKP says it uses the "Unsecure boot.img (stock AOSP kernel)."
You might want to try uninstalling the application to see if that fixes your sound issues over bluetooth.
I am using a stock (unrooted) GSM Galaxy Nexus. It pairs just fine with my Jawbone Era bluetooth headset and do not have an issue when making/receiving calls with volume. Where I notice the volume is quite low is the voice dialer prompt only (the actually call is fine). Apart from that, no issues.
miui..
Hi guys,
Thanks for your replies.
I flashed the rom of miui and it's seems to work till now. So this rom dealing better with bluetooth.

Bluetooth calling issues with Android 4.1.* Builds both Stock and Custom

Has anyone experienced issues using the Note 2 with bluetooth headsets or car kits.
Basically what happens is you are on a call and within a few minutes the audio mutes and you cannot hear the reciepent.
Solution is to toogle the bluetooth headset icon in the dialer and the audio is back.
I have tried this with several car kits and headsets all new and even the Appradio 2.
It seems as though it could be a bug in 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 as I have tried nearly all the custom roms for 4.1.2 and the same thing happens and also the same with stock 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
It is kinda dangerous whilst driving as the whole point of handsfree is gone as toogle icons on the phone etc is a bit dodgy.
I have a friend also who has an S2 and it seems he gets the exact same issues on root and stock 4.1.2 roms.
Anyone experience this ?
4.1.1 & 4.1.2 both work just fine on my ioPlay hands free kit. I can even play music through it, no worries.

I'm having the exact same issues with my Samsung Note. First I thought it was my new bluetooth headset. I used Platronics Marque 2 and then the M55. Both gave me the audio dropouts that Woody_XDA described. I thought that it might be a Plantronics issue so I exchanged the M55 yesterday for a Jawbone ERA. Since I'm having the same dropouts I'm sure now that it has to do with the 4.1.2 update, because that's when they started.
Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?
Best regards

[Q] No audio out to earphones or external speakers

Just got myself a Galaxy Note 8.0 (WIFI) for about 2 weeks. Everything was working well until I need to watch a movie on the plane. Then realized I got no audio on the earphones. The earphones used is not the ones that comes with the Note 8.0. It was the ones from my Note 2.
But I don't think the problem lies with the earphones. Anyway I tried again with an external speakers. Again no audio.
The audio out on the built-in speakers are good.
I am using the default video player. And Android 4.2.2. Upgraded when I first booted up the machine.
Tried going through the system sound settings and software (video player) settings. But nothing works.
And when I plug in the earphones or speakers, the message "something" connected is shown in the status bar.
So is it because the input jack is not working or something else? Hate to bring it back to the service center cos it will be one month later when I get back to Singapore. Now I am in China.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Mic volume issue after EU OTA

Hi all,
Quick question, has anyone experienced issues with the microphone while using Skype or Hangouts after the latest (last week's) OTA for Europe?
At first I thought it was bad design on a case I got, but the issue persists even without the case (and there actually is a hole in the plastic for the mic), tried Hangouts to make sure it wasn't just Skype, so I'm thinking it might have to do with the OTA update.
The mic wasn't doing wonders with capturing before, but it appears to be unusable for Skype now unless the tablet is held at the same distance as a phone.
On a relevant note, is anyone aware of any tools that could help adjusting mic gain or disabling the automatic gain control/ noise cancellation features?
ROM is stock LG, rooted.
Me too
Same here with the exact same setup.
I've tried alsamixer but this proves useless until you know witch setting is involved among hundreds of available mixers.
I wonder if an external bluetooh or USB microphone is not a better option.
EiZ
Same issue
I just recently got the G pad and I definitely have a problem with the mic. Is this happening on all the G pads or do you think is a hardware issue on my device?
I tried with Skype and Hangouts and my voice was barely audible on the other end. Just to make sure it was not my internet connection I tried with my old trusty Galaxy S2, no problems there so it is definitely a problem of the G Pad.
I have no screen, warming, yellow lines, light bleeding or any other issue. So, the device is perfect except for the mic, do you think it is worth to take it back to the shop to exchange it for a new one or this will not cure the mic problem?
Any luck tweaking the mic in software btw? Finally, has anybody tried to use a bluetooth headset and microphone with it, is it possible?
Thanks!
I am also having mic issues currently on sw ver v50010a.
it seems very quiet. update is downloading so will see how it compares.
I'm on software ver V50010b and I keep having issues with the microphone.
Don't know what to do... the rest of the tablet is perfect, so I'm afraid to exchange it just for this issue and get a new one with more problems.
