I have an ATT Fuze and there is no sound coming from my speaker. There is no sound at all on the phone. when i receive phone calls i cannot hear the person. I cannot hear any music also. i solved this the first time with a hard reset but after one day of usage, the same problem happened again.
Is there anyway to fix this or is this a problem with my phone only?
My Tilt did this occasionally while running custom ROM's, hasn't happened on my Fuze.
When it happened on the Tilt I noticed that the sound, both system and ringer, would randomly be turned all the way off. This made no sound come out of the device. Seemed to only do this after having the device paired to my Bluetooth car stereo. When I would turn off the car and get out, that's when it would do it.
I just kept flashing ROMs until it didn't do it anymore. Hope this helps a little
There is already a post on this matter on the forum ("Intermittent sound problems")
So far I sent it 3 times for repairs for this reason
This may be an hardware issue.
I've read that some people resolved this issue with a new replacement.
What radio and ROM do you have?

When my TP's loudspeaker is activated or deactivated it makes a small speaker pop sound. Is this normal or do I have a faulty unit? It happens jsut before any sound is emitted from it, and then shortly after the sound has finished and it goes back silent. Seems its when the speaker receives power ready to emit sound, then again when it powers back off.
Coming from a Universal (MDA Pro) the sound quality on the TP is very poor in comparison but then it is like half the size so it's manageable. This popping sound is very annoying tho.,
I'm using the stock ROM that came with it. I'm on T-Mob UK (it's one of the Expansys ones).
Any ideas how I come test / overcome / put up with this?
Thanks,

My TP started behaving like this after 2 months of use. First I suspected a software problem, but after a hard reset it was the same, so smells like a hardware problem.. I think I'll contact the local HTC service and see what they have to say about it.
It's been 11 days since I left my TP to a local (authorized HTC) service center; they accepted it as a warranty covered problem and now it's waiting for a new motherboard. The thing that worries me, is that when my previous phone (TyTN; does HTC a have a little quality problem or am I just that unlucky?) underwent the same thing, it took a little over 7 weeks. Without a temporary replacement phone..
I am getting an Xperia X1 from work though, so I don't have to be without a decent phone even if the TP took a while longer.
This happened to me as well. After ROM upgrade my speaker have started to play "cracking sound" and "static noise" (sometimes gsm noise) just after playing something normal (like ring or nitification sound).
Has someone fixed this in other way than replacement? I have no warrant/guarantee any more
Same problem here!
I also have this annoying pop/click sound that recently developed after the very first long phone call I made with my HTC Touch Pro.
(for some reason, I can't link to my other post, so I'll copy the relevant info here).
Speaker (the speaker on the back, not the speaker that you put to your ear) emits a sharp click/pop prior to sound being emitted and a second or two of what is best described as "static" or interference (which is quiet-ish, but noticable if you're in a quiet location), then another sharp click/pop as the speaker effectively shuts itself off.
As well as this, the overall sound level seems quieter than normal (and my HTC TP was never the loudest device to statr with!)
This issue also occurred due to the same reason. I had made a phone call of approx. 45 minutes (the single longest call I'd made on my HTC Touch Pro), after this, the problem started.
I also got the weird battery issue, although the battery issue for me was that the HTC would be switched on and displaying a full charge, however, performing a soft-reset would show only a half-power charge when re-booted. I could then charge again until full, soft-reset again, and the same thing would happen.
Power drain seems about normal. I'm currently waiting for a complete discharge so I can fully recharge and hopefully "correct" the battery meter (I think the battery issue is simply a mis-configured meter reading) however it does seem related to the sound issue, which is far more worrying.
My HTC Touch Pro is bog-standard, everything stock and normal. Settings > Device Information > System shows the following:
Rom Version: 5.05.405.1 WWE
Rom Date: 01/22/09
Radio Version: 1.11.25.01
Protocol Version: 52.58.25.30U
Does anyone one know if this is genuinely a hardware problem that can only be fixed with repair/replacement, or is this an issue that can be solved with software or soft/hard resets etc?
Please help!
I tried everything I can do software so I think it's a hardware problem. In a few days I'm getting another cellphone so I will send my Touch Pro to repair service. I'll let you know the result

Thanks for your reply, Davka.
I'm starting to think this is definitely a hardware issue. I have since tried multiple hard-resets (that didn't work) and since I was loosing my setting with the hard-reset, I thought "what the hell" and flashed TAEL-ROM and re-flashed the radio (same version). Neither had any effect on my loudspeaker (ie. it's still clicking and popping with interference before and after any sound as well as being annoyingly quieter), but I am loving TAEL-ROM, though!
Please keep us informed as to the outcome of your speaker problems! Thanks again!
Same problem
I have a touch pro. And I have exactly the same "clicking" sound from my speaker when it gets activated and then a click after it's deactivated.
It's Click, play sound, Click.
I don't think it has to do with the hardware. I got it after flashing the newest NRG rom.
Gonna flash back to an older rom to test.

I have the same problem . You have found a solution for this problem?
In my case it was probably a powering subsystem issue and HTC service found some fluid inside my phone, cease my guarranty and didn't fix it :/
Hi all, hopefully someone might have seen this issue or at least know a way around it.
Basically over the last few days I have noticed that when I am on a call my internal speaker tends to drop out and I hear nothing. It does it constantly, drops out for a second or 2 every 5 - 10 seconds.
If I put the speakerphone on it doesn't drop out at all, so I am thinking it isn't a radio/reception issue.
I have no idea about bluetooth as I don't use it, but I can tell you the wired headset that comes with the phone is fine also.
This problem occurs regardless of which ROM I have installed as I have tested over a few different ROMs.
Any ideas ?
Cheers.
Sounds like an internal hardware problem. I had that speaker go out on a Blackjack 2 and replacing the speaker fixed the problem.
I was thinking the same thing, but obviously I am hoping it isn't. Too lazy to be dealing with hardware issues and sending it away for repairs etc etc.
I have the same problem. I replaced the speaker, I used the phone for 1 day and after that the problem appeared again. I dont know from where the problem is appearing. Maybe some one from here have any idea.
Where did you get hold of a replacement speaker?
speaker problem
I have the same speaker problem. Seems like it happened after I updated to the newest rom. Anyone else notice this?
Same here
I have the same issue. I sent the phone back for repair but they refused due to the rom change.
their OFFICIAL line was that 'due to changing the software on the phone you have used a rom image that has 'OVER POWERED' the speaker and damaged it'.
if you replace the speaker it will happen again.
what you all need to do is clarify which rom was install when the fault occured. Unfortunatley i can't help with that as i have tried several roms since to try and fix the problem hoping it was software.
hope this helps.
Hello everyone!
My external speaker suddenly stopped working. So now I cant go handsfree, I dont hear rings of incoming phones, or any sound that comes thru the external speaker.
Funnily the vibration during incoming calls doesnt come either. But it still vibrates while navigating thru menus.
I think a hardware reset might do the trick, but I cant tell before tomorrow, since I need to backup my files first.
Or is there a known bug with latest mango or a htc specific bug?
Okay vibration seems to work as it should, maybe I didnt feel it the first time I tested it.
Just now I had a moment where I heard menu sounds and then I quickly tried to play a ringtone which also came thrru the speakers but as you can guess, it stopped working again...
more update after the hardware reset tomorrow
It may just be the speaker blown out like mine did only 5 weeks after purchase. Not a big deal, the speaker is the same one as HTC EVO so a replacement part is easy to do yourself or through the Phone Carrier store (that has a repair center).
Since replacement mine has been fine since. When it was blown, it still worked, but was painful to listen to.
Ok thx. I will do that. I hoped it was some software error.
Taking my Arrive in today for the same thing. It just blew a few days ago, and any sound coming out of the external speaker just sounds distorted and garbled.
Hello Everyone,
I have been using HTC Sensation for a good 3 months and no problem at all so far. The phone is rooed and uisng Insertcoin 2.4.1 Rom. 3 days ago while in a call, the sound faded away and since then there is some times sound coming from the ear piece sometimes not. Even the call starts succesfully loud and suddenly sound disappears. I have tried everything i know, reflashing, trying another Rom, formatting the SD card and not installing any software etc...During the call, i can communicate if i turn the speaker on or plug in the earphones. I belive that there is a bug that commands the phone to shut the earpiece and divert the sound either to speaker or the earphones.
Anyone ever has/had this kind of problem?
Thanks in advance!
Gokhan
I have the same problem with my s2, any solution?

Im having the same Problem, but i observed that the sound doesn't come back randomly, the earpiece speaker seems to shutdown a while after the display gets turned off due to the proximity sensor. I tried different ROMs, and got the same result, i guess it's a hardware problem. Would you tell me, if you get the exact same Problem, meaning you check if sound disappears when you're having it close to the head?
Thank you
[Q] In-call mic & speaker dead on stock device, can only make calls with Bluetooth
Anyone else encountered this problem? It's NOT a volume issue, it's an 'in-call speaker and mic not working at all' issue. About two months ago my phone calls completely cut out all in-call sound, UNLESS I use a Bluetooth headset, in which case I can talk and hear just fine. When it first went out, I was able to use the mic and in-call speaker as long as I put it in speakerphone mode, but after a few weeks, that cut out, too. It will answer the call...I just can't communicate without BT engaged. Factory reset and other known "try this first" solutions have been dead-ends.
The OTA to KitKat didn't change or help anything in regard to this problem, and the same problem persists in the same fashion. I am currently still stock...after modding my M7 on TMO repeatedly, when I switched to Verizon and got an M8, I resolved to stick with stock and try to appreciate getting the OTAs before the other carriers. All well and good--until your in-call sounds bugs out and renders your device useless as a phone unless you put your BT earpiece in first.
I'm curious if this is a widely known problem, as I couldn't find evidence of it being common, but wasn't sure if I was just looking in the wrong place or using the wrong search terms. If so, is there a decent fix, or did VZ just sell me a lemon? If there's not a decent solution, would Factory Reset, unlock, and flashing TWRP and a good aftermarket ROM, say CM, cause this problem to be fixed?
Just figured I'd ask the hive before I dig into it myself and end up pissing away the rest of my weekend on it. Cheers and thanks!
