My qtek 2020 has a mind of its own.
There are days when the sound works (mediaplayer or phone) and there are days when you can press play in mediaplayer but you hear no sound, or you phone someone but they cant hear you and you cant hear them.
Sometimes i put the qtek on the table and let it play some music and it would do that for 1 hour or 4 hours but then suddenly it stops and maybe when you leave it alone it continues further later on. ???
Now here comes the funny thing when its stops playing and i put it on its cradel there still is no sound but when i press stop and then play again (in its cradel) then it starts playing again. When i take it of it keeps playing till a press stop (witch is normal ) but when i press play again there is no more sound. until ..... you get it i think.
Who can solve this one.
ps when i use headphones i always have sound.
But is very annoying because this is my main telephone and i need to be evialable(was that spelt wright?)
..i got the same problem today....
I'm having the same problem, infact i was just going to post about this and then in saw this post
I have an imate JAM and am having the same problem.. the sound suddenly disappears. Then returns. Then goes off again. Media player shows that the music file is playing but i can't hear anything. Adjusting the sound also doesn't make any difference. I uninstalled/reinstalled a lot of programmes...but still same problem. Also, this started happening when i was playing Jawbreaker (Doh!). Just out of the blue i thought i should try this game and there.. it started giving me sound bugs.....
This can be very serious because now i think it could be a virus.
Why ? I reset my pda so it was clean and then i used it without putting any software in it and it workt without a problem .
As soon as i connected to the pc with acitvesync and i used it one hour later it happend again.
So maybe it is a software thing ? Now my college who has a S100 has the same problem.
Of course this makes your pda totaly useless as without sound a phone is worth nothing.
Whe really need help here so solv this.

although i had sound at first it is now not working. I have sound when listening through earphones but no sound when touching the sreen or when a call comes through etc..
all relevent sound tick boxes are ticked
is this a known bug?
i have an o2 xda2 by the way
I am using the WM5 on XDA II for more than 3 months now (3 different ROMs) ... never have had any troubles with the sound
(But with AS, etc. )
I have the same problem also but it's worse with me. I don't have any sound at all and whenever I try to do an action with sound like opening a menu the device stop responsing for at least 30 seconds. As an experiment I downgraded my device to W2003SE and the sound came back so I'm sure that it's a software problem. I'v tried many different ROMs but without any binefit.
My sound sometimes is muted - it's WM5 behaviour that pressing and holding power button mutes device. Soft reset helps. I would like to switch off this behaviur but don't know how.
hey still prob with the bugs on freezing on wm2005...
i have problem too... same as u, so share something @ http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=59&func=view&id=23180&catid=26 ; we will solve this prob. cmon share up!
thanks!
ok i know this is a well known subject but my problem is a bit unique. one day for no reason what so ever my bluetooth headphones stopped playing. i turned on the phone and pressed play it started going again but as soon as i pressed the power off button to turn the backlight off the music stopped again. since i bought the phone i have never had the music pausing when the phone is in standby problem it has always played normally and nothing like this has ever happened i tried all the registry fixes and nothing has worked. even headphones have this problem. something is seriously broken with this device and i was hoping someone can tell me something new about this problem because the fixes haven't worked. i am crying over this problem as the phone is my best and only mp3 player at the moment.
on a side note this problem is exclusive to windows media and all other audio programs play while the phone is in standby even if there are no headphones
All,
I noticed a couple possible defects after upgrading to 3.1 manually.
1. When playing audio from certain applications (XMP for Android for instance) The Audio cuts out shortly after the screen turns off, and then halts for a period of time before coming back shortly, then cuts out again.
2. Once you turn the screen back on, there is a distinct crackling in the audio.
Workaround:
1. Turn screen back on (get the crackling)
2. Unplug the 3.5mm audio jack
3. Play music from the speakers
4. Plug back in the 3.5mm audio jack
Anyone else seeing these issues with other audio applications?
Yep, I had the crackling and long pauses start happening today after the FOTA update.
Seems to happen (more often?) when applications interrupt an audio stream. For instance, listening to music and get an IM or email.
Yeah I had issues with this as well afer updating to 3.1...I saw in another thread that doing a "hard reboot" will fix the issue and has seemed to work for me so far. Hold the power button down for 10-15 sec until the unit reboots.
same problem
I have the same problem as well. The audio stops functioning properly when the screen times out or when I lock the device with the power button. The weird thing is that this behaviour is not consistent for all apps.
For example, "Music" stops only at the end of the song. From the "3.1 ROM issues" thread, other users are experiencing this as well. In contrast, in the apps "Listen" and "Audible", almost as soon as the screen goes off or I lock it, the audio stops, starting after some 30 seconds, halting again after 10 seconds. It repeats this cycle a few times and then stops completely. If I lit the screen by hitting the power button, the audio resumes with crackling noises as mentioned in the original posts.
Also, hard reset didn't work. I am tempted to do a factory reset except that I don't really know what's going on and I don't know if that'd fix it!
UPDATE: I found the following workaround solutions:
1- Winamp works flawlessly for songs, not a peep or hitch!
2- BeyondPod is working fairly well for podcasts. (It has paused once after 11 minutes so far.)
I did the fota update.
and I've the the crackling. Sucky.
me too. Hope they get an update out to fix this asap. Extremely annoying bug.
Would like to add I am also experiencing this issue although mine didn't start till a couple days after the update to 3.1. A hard reset works for a little while but the issue eventually presents itself again. Might be due to a caching issue with the music player?
Anyone try another music player?
I discovered the crackling noise problem last night.
At first I thought the FLAC songs were recorded from a dirty vinyl record.
I also discovered the problem where the Music app does not continue to the next song when listening with the screen turned off. How stupid is that.
These are two big problems that ASUS needs to address ASAP.
I am already annoyed by the pop sound when turning the Transformer on and whenever any sound to the speaker (Headphones are fine) is played after a long pause.
They must have used a really cheap sound chip in the Transformer.
Yes I can confirm the same problems with google listen. Have tried the hard reset but it doesn't really help very much. Things worked fine after the restart, but as soon as the screen turned off, then the audio paused, and began to crackle, then more pauses. It is almost as if some part of the system is in some sort of low power mode and is not able to feed the data at the required data rate...

I believe this could be exactly the problem. I have not yet gotten my TF, but looking forward to one greatly. However, I get exactly this problem on my Galaxy Tab 7" WHEN using setCPU to add a profile that scales the CPU down when screen is off. It sounds to me as if ASUS has added some sort of governer/scaling that does this. I could be wrong of course This is just based on reading, and personal experience

Yes. I get a lot of weird little problems with the Tab 7'' when setCPU scales clock speed down too far, including random reboots. I guess that's the sacrifice Asus made to give the TF such a tremendous battery life.

I don't know about "tremendous"
More like pretty good...
i can confirm that i have this issue using google music app. I previously purchased PowerAMP (arguably the best android music app) and no problems whatsoever when the screen goes off.
I do like the google music app as it seems like a truly lightweight player but its still in beta stage and needs a bit of work.
I just discovered something. The problem does not occur for my Transformer when the unit is plugged in!
So it must be power management problem, the question is how to fix it?
Hey guys, loving the xda forums btw, much love. I have a acer iconia a500 16gb, and same problem here:
Using Acer_a500_4.010.13_com_gen2
The default Music player is buggy and crashed fairly often, the audio stopping when screen turns off and stopping intermittently is also present on iconia with the default music player and the others as well.
The audio crackling is also present under same conditions.
To add insult to injury, sometimes when i connect a headphones the speakers dont turn off. And if i play with he "dolby mobile" settings, the sound on my headphones get really tinny untill i unplug the headphones and plug them back in, or i reboot the sys in some cases.
I just thought I should add to this thread that I have the same problems on my Acer Iconia A500. It consistently only finishes the song after I turn the screen off then it waits MINUTES to start the next song. I only occasionally have problems with the crackle sound. I had the crackling a lot when I first got it but it doesn't seem to happen as often any more. It doesn't seem to happen when I use doubleTwist but I really wish that the STOCK APPLICATION (which I like the best) would work...
Is there ANY way to fix this stuff? I mean even downgrading to like 3.0 or something. I like to use my tablet to play on my stereo system and I don't enjoy having to effing go back every time I want to play the next song. I also don't want to leave the screen on all the time and murder the battery.
I have the same thing happening on my A500 (running the ASUS PRIME ROM, though). When the screen turns off, anything audio related gets really skippy.
apparently there's some sort of setting build in for the cpu to underclock to the point of not being able to continue running the music application when the screen turns off. (that's me guessing it could be wrong) It always happens with stock music app though it didnt happen when in 3.0.
I installed winamp and doubletwist and both played nonstop.
Also i noticed that if you had music in your external sd and you open music app (also happened with winamp) and remove the sd the applications wont work anymore (thy always fc)unless you install the sd back (that is if you had your music library in the sd even if you also have it internally)
I tried moving the music to the internal storage but the error persist. the only way to get rid of it is formatting the tablet and passing the music to the tablet before running the apps. However if you install the sd and you happen to have music and music app open, youre screw again.
thats the error ive been having and im stuck with a 16gb sd in the tablet to hear music, (which i find it sucking cause my tablet is 32gb)
any suggestions?
Hi guys,
I got a 3 days old sensation, and for the past 3 days it keeps going to auto silent mode, (wont ring, no alarm, games & music all no sound) even my notification and volume is max.
The problem goes away after I make a call and it will comeback again anytime.
I only installed some popular apps (known for no issue) such ass Whatapps, Wiki, Angry bird, Dictionary and some games for my toddler.
I am still good for 7 days exchange policy, but I hope I could fix the issue, having installed screen protector and all, i wish to keep this set
Anyone can help me?
Thanks!
Some games are not compatible with Sensation and caused a loss of sound. I have to try the game Talking tom cat or some similar games ( Talking.....) and causing the whole system sound. You only need to uninstall that game and restart the device >>> The device works correctly again

Good to know, thanks for the tip.
seems to be a common problem and there are a few threads on here about it. some think it's incompatible apps but I don't have any of the ones that are ever listed & I get it. the sure way to get sound back without restarting is just as you do, make a call, I call voicemail, & then it'll come back.
If you look, your phone is locked in media volume & that's the issue.
Thanks for the reply guys...
I found the culprit, yes! ancola66 is right! it was the TALKING GINA, got it uninstalled and all fine.
Auto silent for no reason HTC Sensation
Heya,
Thought I'd post this in response to the solutions. It may be an application that's causing the problem but I tried all that and removed applications (none of whihc were games - iplayer type stuff) and reset the phone (factory reset) and still nothing.
Then I decided to plug in my headphones to see if that output worked. It did and when I unplugged them, voila, the speaker suddenly worked again!!
Morale: plug in some headphones if you have this problem before doing anything else.. It may solve it..
Hope this helps!
Auto silent for no reason on Sensation
Hey again,
It went silent for a reason when I wanted to play the HTC Music. I tried the headphone thing and no joy. But went into youtube and started something playing then did the headphone thing and the speaker's back on.
I will never understand this, but it seems to work for me.
[shrugs]
Occasionally the sound in the bottom speakers will stop working and some apps will play through the ear speaker instead. When this happens Google Music, Youtube and some other apps won't work at all. For example pressing play in either of those apps does nothing, as in the play button never changes to a pause button. My alarm app on the other hand plays through the ear speaker instead of not working at all. The ear speaker sound volume is very quiet and doesn't appear to be controlled by the media volume either.
The only remedy that I've been able to find for this is a phone reboot
Wanted to bump this thread -
I originally thought this issue was related to Bluetooth because I use multiple bluetooth devices, but this has happened again recently when I didn't use any Bluetooth devices.
I have the exact same issue, and it's occurrence is random. This started happening a month back. I'm guessing this is due to some software update or something, but its really annoying and the only fix is a reboot.
Anyone has any ideas, whats going on ?
It's been happening multiple times a day lately! It's gotten substantially worse over the past month. I was watching a video, sent a text and when I went to resume it wouldn't play - low and behold the bug came back.. definitely appears to be completely random.
i think that there is somthing with your connection

With my connection to what?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using XDA-Developers mobile app
This problem is driving me crazy
I have the exact same issue. Factory reset and update to newest firmware didn't help any idea?
Wash your phone. And wait till it dry.
I (and other person that I know) have the same issues.
No sound from bottom, and sometimes during the call no audio (I can't ear evrything and the other don't ear me).
Now I'm tring the mobile phone in safety mode.
And I've seen (for the edge version) that next android could fix the problem.
Someone have any update?
Have you tried the safety mode?
Im pretty sure its caused by Facebook messenger and Skype
From what I can tell, this seems to happen when you are playing any kind of audio, such as a video or game, and then receive a notification. You then go to the notification to respond to it and go back to your app that was playing the audio and the issue appears. It seems to be an issue, at least with me, whenever notification is received and subsequently answered.
