[Q] Popping sound comes from speakers when video plays - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I am on the latest S3Rx 4.1. When a video plays whether volume is muted or not, the speaker makes popping sounds like when touching the end of a 3.5 mm plug that is connected to powered on speakers. I have changed multiple settings with no fix.

Is only with videos? How about audio only?
Might need to replace the speaker module. I'd Odin back to stock and test first to be sure though.

It does it when I start Play Music as well.

Sounds like the speaker may have a problem. Only way to know for sure is flash stock firmware and test.
If it is, it's very easy to replace and you can find oem replacements for under $10.

[Q] [Problem] Music Player skips like crazy when I use earbuds

Running stock, with installed music player. Everything works fine when using just the phone. It works when I run a line-out to my car stereo. When I use earbuds, multiple ones now, I will eventually encounter this problem.
It may take more than an hour but, eventually, the player starts skipping around. It will play 1-5 seconds of anything and then repeat or skip. Also, I only use earbuds (one, really) is when I ride my bike. The ride with the handset in the front pocket of my shorts. At first, I thought there might be an issue with the contacts but this will occur even if I'm standing still.
I've read some threads in other folders but have not found the solution. Has anyone else experienced this?
Hard to say what might be causing this. I don't use the stock player -- can it be set to skip forwards or backwards when the hardware volume buttons are pressed? Could these or some other button be pressed while you are riding? Is something touching the Dpad while you are riding?
On some audio players, it can be made to automatically pause if the jack is removed -- does the stock player do this?
No buttons pushed and the phone is locked.
It seems that if the earbuds connecter spins at all in the jack, which will always happen to some degree, the player begins to skip. Is this something I can fix?
If you can reproduce it by spinning the plug then it sounds like a hardware problem. If using a different pair of headphones doesn't fix it then it is your phone....
If it might be software, have you tried using the new Music beta media player instead?

Yeah, three different sets of earbuds and upgraded to the new Music beta media player. I guess I need to call T-Mobile (ugh).

DSP Manager for ICS Not Working

Has anyone gotten DSP to work on ICS roms? I'm flashing the CM9 DSP Manager, and it installs fine.
Opening the application up I'm able to select presets, turn on bass boost, etc, but the sounds effects to not activate (no change in sound). They say they're enabled, but they're not.
I've tried on ROMChicago, Darkside, BulletROM. I've tried on a handful of music players to verify they were not overriding the settings.
Please don't refer me to PlayerPro or a different app to improve my sound-- I've purchased them all and tried them all, to my ears, there's no better sound than with DSP Manager setup properly.
Thanks,
TL
Works find here with beats audio mod. Only works with stock music player.

Which rom are you using? I could not get this to work on the stock music player.

AOKP with beats mod for the SG2 and with working DSP from CM9. I searched and found them all. I use Power amp though. I wanted to see if I can make it work, and it does

So you can turn on a song, then open the DSP Manager UI, enable and disable bass boost, and noticeably hear the difference immediately?

DSP manager dynamic range
Hi,
I installed Darkside Evolution3 v7 ROM and I noticed that dynamic range really gives good results.:good:
When I turn it ON it works fine for a second or two and then the sound gets really messy.
When the volume is changed works again and in a second it switches back to a messy sound.
To listen I have to keep pressing volume buttons up and down.
have ay idea about this?
cheers.
This may sound dumb, but did you try adjusting the effects strength. I thought dsp wasn't working for me either, then I realize that it was set on slight. After I moved it to extreme the sounds are way louder.

Ya Ive tried that. when I turn it to the extreme the effect is different but the same revert issue comes within 1 second ov volume change.
But if I go up use max volume (15) it stays that way but the bass is too draggy.

I was just browsing through and found you're post. It's funny because I am having the very same issue with the Darkside Evolution3 v8 ROM. You did a wonderful job explaining the problem I was trying to put it in words but that's exactly what its doing. Turn the volume up it sounds great and then a second later you can hardly hear it. Some things I noticed, it only seems to happen with an audio jack headphones plugged in. I dont notice it with my car blue tooth. Also have you noticed a difference if you just turn off DSP mgr? I forced closed it and it was fine but as soon as I started that process again it had the same effect. It's quite annoying.

I tried force closing it and then the sound effect is totally gone and it sounds like stock player. The issue is only with the dynamic range filter.
if its turned off the issue doesn't come up. I was hoping to upgrade to v8 due to this issue and it seems that there is no luck in that as well.

Hey,
Found a solution to the dreadful issue. Install tasker and add a action which changes media volume
continuously one up and down will not effect your listening experience but will keep the effects alive.
hook the tasks up with a profile and you can make it automatic when the headset is plugged in.
I waisted whole day trying different versions of dspmanager.
Most of the files floating around just repackaged versions sometimes wrongly of basically 4 different builds.
I got 2 different packages... one is working fine with Pandora and everything else but GoogleMusic, the second is working with GM but not with Pandora... rest of the versions give either bad distorted sound or do not work at all.
I am on stock ICS. Which dsp you want?

Re-enable media audio

Lately my phone has been disabling media audio after coming back from mute/vibrate. My ring tones and notification return to normal but media audio is disabled not matter how high I se the volume. Is there any setting within the menus that will allow me to re-enable it?

I'm surprised that no one else is coming across this issue. So far only way to fix it is restarting the phone.

Mine was doing that after taking a call while listeningbto music. The fix was play it over the speakers then plug the headphones in or else you couldnt hear anything. Maybe try something similar to that

Completely lost audio

So has anyone else had this problem? I'm on CM9 and I noticed my alarm didn't go off the other day, or at least I didn't hear it. I've been playing around and I discovered I have no speaker audio at all (phone still works) but Pandora, audio notifications and even touch sounds produce no noise through the speaker. Audio through the headphone jack works fine but speak audio is completely gone. I tried CM10, same problem. Nandroid back to CM9, still no audio. Starting to think maybe a hardware issue? I'm going to try to ODIN back to stock but if that doesn't work I guess its hardware unless anyone else has an idea.
So back to stock EL29 rooted and no speaker audio. SOL?
No ringer either?

My e4gt did the same thing. Hardware issue. Try hitting the phone near the speaker and it'll probably start wprking

[Q] Using Google Play with headphones and after 1 song next will play from phone

I've used 2 diff ROMs and I get the same result. Anyone else? If I listen continuely, after 1 track the next will play out of the phone speaker not earphones or thru aux jack when plugged into my stereo. I'm wondering if this is a ROM issue or a Play issue or S3 issue.
I get same issue on stock not rooted... no idea what it is

Running 11.0 jellybomb and have the same issue.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I have the same problem when I plug my S3 into my AUX jack in my car. It doesn't matter what app I'm using, if I change the song or any buffering happens (basically any interruption in the output) the output switches to my phone speaker. I have to unplug then plug back in the audio cable from the car's aux jack to get it to work again.
This happened on a stock rom and happens on the current "GOODNESS" SG3 ROM.
I'm on the stock ROM and I'm having the same problem, except it's when I get text messages and it gets interrupted, music starts playing from the phone and I pause and re-play it again for it to come out of headphones again.
I now have another issue...now my media sound get stuck on no sound. . Can't move the sound bar have to reset phone to get media audio. .. any help ?

Same issue here. Stock or custom rom.

Everyone should contact Google about this. They are looking into it for me, they even had me send them a log. It happens frequently, still hasn't been fixed....please, if you have the same issue as me report it so they have more cases...
According to Google Play Team they made some major changes which should have resolved the issue and to let them know if the issue persists. See the attached screenshot of my email for proof (or view full screen at http://i.imgur.com/Z8Hrm.png )
