Is anyone else experiencing sound problems with android on Polaris (touch cruise)? The sound dissapears after random X minutes/hours.
I have tried a dozens of nands and android packages all with the same results - the sound stops working after a while. No ringtone, no other sound at all. If I call someone they can't hear me.
I would really really appreciate if someone could give me a solution to this problem.
In the beginning a did something to get SPL-2.20.OliNex (CPLD-2)
Then I have tried installing different typpes of ROM's (guess this is the nands) and also tried different combinations with andoid releases. I even found a great thread in this forum where working nands and andoid releases where listed...GREAT I was thinking.....finally! But again, the same thing....no sound after a while :-(
sound works but wifi
Hi,
are you talking about sound issue with telephony/voip? I installed latest release on my htc polaris touch cruise (100 series) and first calls sound is working so far. I am using this one:
* l1q1d - [NAND] - My latest nbh - Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2 [Deodexed] [RLS10] [7/10/10] Work All
via haret.exe from "Working android setups" thread.
Only issue is wifi, for what i've tested by now, so i need to investigate further.
Hi,
Thanks for your answer. I'm not running any voip, telephony thou. All sound is stopping. Ringsignal, other sounds and,telephone-voice and also my microphone.
I've search the forum for days now and no one seems to have the same issue as me.
I guess there is no soultion. :-(
Hi,
i had no problems with nand and phone sound and the mentioned image:

Perhaps you need an upgrade of your devices firmware.
Sound with voip still stucks for me but IMO this is related to an issue with performance:

Hi today I tried with this configuration and also have sound issues with pol100. They come out when playing with sipdroid. No sound in sipdroid tested with sipgate.de (german provider).
Btw. the first call with gsm when phone is freshly rebooted has sound.
sys/data on nand:
- polaimg-panel3-320-froyo-26-07-10-tweaked-to-panel1
- zImage-26-07-10
- RLS12
- radio 1.65.38.14
No mic/speaker sound :-(
When sipdroid call is dropped and gsm phone is called the gsm phone application crashes.
Here's related thread to problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=729472
Sound playback issue: random choppy audio
I have tested it intensively and all I have to say is that sometimes the music playback is choppy (it sounds like distorted and echoed badly). I noticed that it's only the "multimedia playback", not the standard sound stream (the Phone volume is involved in this one).
When this happens, you should stop the music/sound playback, wait for some seconds and resume. If you waited enough, it will play smooth after this.
I have observed this behavior in the Music player and in game emulators. When it happens in emulators, it's difficult to "fix" it, since they don't have a button to just stop the audio streaming. I have to close the emulator and try again. Luckily it is fixed after some tries.
I hope an expert developer (say DZO) could fix this.
Merged topic, the same question and / or problem
Hi, I tried some Android ROMs in my HTC Cruise - Polaris (Pola100) and still the same problem. No sound - when playing music, when incoming call ring, when speaking, other side cannot hear anything, I cannot hear other side etc. Only one exception i noticed is with "Incubus26Jc's Super FroYo 2.2.1 [Deodexed] [RLS16] [10/2/10] All Languages", after reboot and Launcher Pro used, little while sound works, but after few seconds - silence again
Did anybody solved this problem, or have any idea?
Thanks for Your replies.
PS: Camera doesn't work too, even if everybody is saying, that with "this one" ROM it works. But this is no problem for me, I don't need camera necessarily.
Firstly, I have been searching this forum for about 2 hours. I have found a few threads with the same issues, but they are either not relevant or I have tried the solutions within the threads and they have not worked. Also, the threads I have found are a few months old. I have also searched the ROM thread seen below.
ROM: [06 Nov 2011][MAG/cLK] NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.2a (GWK74)(Android 2.3.7)[tytung_r13]
Device: HTC HD2
ROM Installation Method: MAGLDR 1.13
SPL: 2.08.HSPL
When I accept an incoming call, the phone application hangs and after about 10 seconds I get a force close notification. Sometimes this is accompanied with a buzzing sound from my speaker. In some instances I have to remove the battery to restart the phone as it totally freezes.
This happened on Android 2.3.5 (of the ROM linked above) so I upgraded to 2.3.7 (of the ROM linked above) to see if it would fix the issue. It has not. I also wiped the phone and reinstalled the ROM, and again it hasn't fixed the issue.
Also, I do not have Skype installed so it's definetely not that.
I would have posted in the ROM thread but it wouldn't let me.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance. I can provide additional information should it be required.

buzzing HD2
Sometimes it happens on my HD2 on diferent rooms: NexusHD2 3.2, NexusHD2 ICS 1.1, MIUI 1.12.30, MIUI 2.2.17. It is not often. Any sollution?
It's same here! I am starting to think that the problem is with my phone! I tryed meny different ROM and settings...it always the same!
It doing it 2-3 times per day.
How to fix it ?
same problem
I'm using CM9 (v2.8) android 4.0.4 and facing the same problem. I tried many ROMs but can't fix the problem. Also tried some solution on this 4rum but no help until now.
I'm going to throw my HD2.
Same here
I have the same issues with different rom using nand or nativeSD.
1 on 2 receiving call, the phone freezes with a buzzing sound. I must to take the battery out to restart the phone.
same problem
I have the same problem with my HD2!
The phone freezes after I receive an incoming call with a buzzing sound/no sound. Sometimes it shows the error message of com.android.phone process, in other cases I need to remove the battery and restart the phone.
I have tried different kind and version of ROM(for e.g. NexusHD2, MIUI, TouchWizMod v3.0) but the freezing issue is still not solved.
As far as I checked the freezing is not related to any kind of installed software.
If anybody has a solution to this problem please share with me/us. I really do not want to get rid of my HD2.
Thanks in advance.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have found the solution. The reason why the phone did not work is the Viber application. I uninstalled it a moth ago and thence everything works well. I use the WeChat app instead of Viber and my phone works like a charm.
By the way, a member of the Viber team has commented on this forum that their application does not support any kind of custom ROM currently.
Im facing the same problem,its killing me, its been worst recently ! I cant answer any call on my HD2
this problem happend first time on android 4+ roms,
I tried diffrent roms after that, but still not fixed, anyone can help us to find a solution?!
-----
anyone using CLk has this problem?!
Im using Magldr
Im having the same problem here. Found no sulition currently. ROM - tytung NexusHD2 2.5

hmm same here, tried some different ROMS - SD (froyo) and NANDs (2 gingerbreads, now ICS), tried these on both of my HD2s, also changed RADIO from 2.15.50.14 to 2.08.50.05 - nothing helps.
sometimes when im getting a call (usually it happens twice a week, some weeks more often, some less), i press the button and the phone/app freezes, sometimes with a buzzing sound.
after that, system doesnt respond normally, on GB sometimes it autorebooted....
also tried without viber AND tried directly after reinstalling the different ROMS with no contacts, original ringtones - also happens there sometimes!
i dont think that could be a hardware problem, because both of my hd2 phones act the same way.....
any solution since that time?
At the moment I have latest Jelly Bean by cotulla, with Cyanogenmod, and when I make a call, the screen is black (turned off) even though I don't have it close to my head and sensor is not covered. When I abort the call, it doesn't respond and stays dark with button panel highlighted for several seconds, and only after I press power button for several times it awakens. The same happens for incoming calls. The phone is not usable as phone with such things happening... That's frustrating.
So, let me sum up what people (and I) have had on the subject:
1. Various Android ROMs were tried and issue is always present.
2. In my case, stock Windows 6.5 has a very similar issue - incoming calls are even ignored! At least I had the described problem after I decided to have an "old" but working phone and reverted to the stock ROM instead of Android. Alas, the phone was still having glitches when answering.
3. We don't know exactly how many HD2 are affected by the issue but it looks like more than 1% which is pretty much to be a serious issue.
I might assume we faced an intermittent hardware issue, that does not always reveal itself, and can only be reproduced after a certain "failure". I think it's hardware dependent because my phone was working fine but suddenly ceased to do that.
I'm very sceptical about fixing this issue for me or other users. It's an obsolete phone and any mass hardware issues that is not reported by manufacturer (btw, could this be checked out?) will scarcely be considered. The whole thing makes me think we just have to switch to our phones are gaming/browsing accessories, since it just doesn't work and the issue is apparently non-trivial to be examined. I would be though glad to provide any information and logs... but who cares? Even cotulla doesn't think HD2 is worth developing any more....
Hi all,
Here's an explanation of the issue that occurs on my Nexus S :
- Sometimes, when making a call or answring a call, people can't hear me.
- When it happens, Voice search or voice text input don't work as well
- Reboot don't change anything
- I've tried both KF1 and KI1 radio. No changes (Seems to be worst with KI1, but and can't be sure)
- I've tried CyberGR-mod, KalimochoAz's CM9 and Stock 4.0.3. No changes
- Works fine using BT headset or wired headset
- Tested on two different carriers (Bouygues Telecom and Free Mobile)
- Reported by other french users : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22339612&postcount=2305 & http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22338740&postcount=2304
I don't have a clue if it's software or hardware related.
I'm looking for help, similar issue, any ideas or testing protocol
Thanks !
I got the same prob randomly, but for me , a reboot will correct the problem ...

May you complete your rom config with your radio version ?
I already read that your using KalimochoAz's CM9 v2.1
I'm gonna try to reproduce your config for testing
if you have voodoo or any other audio app like that, turn off "hi-fi record" and your recorded audio volume should increase.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
It was my first though when I was on CyberGR mod, and I uninstalled it.
Still had sound issues
Now on stock rom, I've never installed such app, and the issue still occurs.
Its weird, I'm having this same exact issue on a sense rom that I have ported..
Could it be more software related? or a problem with the radios?
Issue Summary (updated regularly when issues arise) [UPDATES Shown in this style]
* Issue 1: Windows Phone connector for Mac crashes when trying to sync.
* More information & reading HERE
* Temporary workaround (taken from above thread):
From timmymarsh:
- When device connected, quickly hit cancel sync before wp app crashes.
- Go into settings, UNCHECK Auto-sync.
- Next time connect device, app should not crash.
From MS: (in response to my workaround)
If you want to turn off the "sync automatically" setting, you can do it outside the app, no need for quick reflexes/slow computer:
- In Finder, pres cmd-shift-G
- Type the following path into the dialog: ~/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Windows-Phone-7-Connector/Data/Library/Application Support/Windows Phone/Devices
- You should see a single folder with a bunch of characters representing your phone, open that folder
- Edit the file named "Sync Configuration.xml"
- Change the value after Setting/Sync On Connect from <integer>1</integer> to <integer>0</integer>

Let's list up our findings, to see if it's only a local bug, or if many others have the same issues.
Had my 8x for aprox 3 weeks now, I am mostly very pleased with both aesthetics and performance.
But have seen some random "bugs":
-Random reboots (already mentioned and have a fix coming)
-Sometimes, in apps, the screen is not responding to touch, seen it happen in various apps, but mostly in Wimp. Needs reboot to function properly again)
-Sound becomes distorted from time to time, happened once using headset, and sometimes with notifications/incoming calls.
-"lag" in notifications, in.ex when a ringtone starts (when device in sleep mode) it's noticeable that the ringtone don't start from beginning, it kinda hangs a bit then starts half a sec/a sec into the ringtone/notification sound.
Not sure if it's my device or if others experience the same things

I've nearly the same problems with my device (8X, FW 1532.20.10005.111, HWrevisionnumber: 0002, Chip-SOC-Version: 8260A).
- 3 times a reboot
- sometimes in apps no screen responding (i think it's caused from the app's)
-> reboot manually
- sound becomes disorted when using navigon ( navigon bug ?), built in music player works fine, sometimes sound in video player is asynchronous, sometimes not (same movie file)
- when i use navigon and bluetooth in my car, battery drains out allthoug i'm charging (5V, 1000m/Ah), so i'm not able to use it for more then 3-4 hours !!! Phone is then really hot and battery empty.
I read that lumia 920 users have the same problem.
- Battery drains too fast, 12 to 16 hours by normal usage
- my provider data volume (200 MB) is sufficient for max. of 3 days (no tool to control network traffic, because t-mobile WP8 without built in data sence)
For users with battery problems, Coolknight1968 wrote a "how to" to become a better battery performance. You can read it, following the link in post#4 in this thread:

The only bug I suffer from is the reboot, but this mostly occures when I have a WP7.5 app tombstoned in the background.
Battery life averages between 20 hours - 1,5 day depening on use. Seems good enough, I have very little drain in standby. Battery does drain fast when using games or the screen a lot, but this is normal.
No audio bugs either.
No lag or responsiveness issues.

ITJE, you beat me to this thread. I was going to post a thread with a list of issues (regularly updated) with a space to list workarounds and answers.
Hope you dont mind, i have created a summary post above yours, which can be updated for ease of reference (as it was such a good idea lol)
If you want, i can transfer ownership to you (you know the magic lol)
I never had the reboot issue but that's probably because I read that Skype was causing the problem so I just left it uninstalled.
I don't have the distorted sound issue under any circumstance.
I use Windows and Linux and therefore have not experienced the Mac problem (despite owning a Mac)
I have noticed something else... I cannot send the following message: *in
If there is a space before the asterisk, then there's no problem. If either or both of the letters is capitalized, there's no problem. asterisk-i-n will not send from my phone.
Anybody else getting this?
found another bug...
when i connect my 8X to my Computer and connect it to Visual Studio for Debugging it seems that the telephone Features hangs after a while... i don't receive SMS nor calls... only a restart can solve the Problem...
happens to the 3rd time today...
really annoying
EDIT:
It seems it doesn't Need to be connected to the PC.
Everything in the whole OS seems Buggy.
The first time i used my phone it was the same way, after a few hardresets (because it was the same time the Live-Services had Errors) it seemed that it works nice now...
i don't know what error this could be...
1. I too have had the reboot problem (where the phone randomly reboots itself).
2. I have also had the phone freeze where I had to hold the power button to reboot, as the phone was unresponsive.
3. When making a call, one time the phone wouldn't go to speakerphone, nor could I hear the person on the other end. Everything else worked fine. A reboot fixed the problem.
edit:
4. The phone has randomly said "invalid or missing sim card" twice now. A reboot fixed it both times, but annoying. Anyone else have this? Not sure if its the sim or the phone.
Not sure if it's a "bug" to others, but in group messages, i reply to the group, but I also get the reply. How the hell is that fixed?

I have noticed that if I go a while (a few days or so) without a reboot, then my phone stops receiving texts and calls. A simple toggle of the radio from one protocol to another (i.e. 4G to 2G and back) will rectify things. I'll get a flood of backlogged messages.
After updating to the new (officially not released yet) OS 8.0.10211.204 I have not had issues with sound or reboots (yet?)
Seen some issues in apps esp. on resume (mostly/only(?) Wimp, but I believe that's app related)
I am happy with my 8x, it's, for me, one of the better devices I have had :good:
And when spotify (very missed) becomes available for WP8, I will be very happy
I am on 8X number 3 now as I cant stand the reboot issue and first 2 had it.
With all 3 phones though I have noticed that a lot of the old power Hungary games tend to crash a lot - prime on is PES that crashes on the second game of a session without fail and sometimes first. Also IloMilo sometimes bombs. I know this is an app thing and I know lumia 920 owners are having same issues with same apps its quite annoying as all work flawlessly on WP7 handsets (at least HD7, Mozart and Lumia 800).
Also first 2 handsets had issues with casing coming away from the screen though the new one looks and feels spot on. (first 2 where blue handsets new one is yellow so dunno if it was just a batch issue as I know the yellows came into store later
Other than that its a great device with only downside being the lack of SD (this will bug me until I upgrade) The sound quality rocks.I have found myself with my earphones in whilst at home with my stereo waiting to please me.
Post 1 updated.
Hi guys.
Please only report bugs if you have updated your device to the new OTA 8.0.10211.204 released by MS & carriers today.
If you havent updated yet, then it would be wise to do this as the new release will probably address the above, thanks.
No Sound
This has only happend about 3- 4 times. I have the volume up and set to ring. But watching videos, sounds(typing, lock/unlock, etc), calls, etc there's will be no sound. I try lowering the volume and raising it, checked setting, etc but nothing makes the sound come back until I reboot the device. Anyone else have this?

no, only distorted sound on that os, you not got the ota update yet? Its coming.
Hi
Have my 8X since a few days, the day before the OTA update actually, but I still have a problem :
The speakerphone is working perfectly fine when playing music or video but when I'm calling someone, putting him on speakerphone makes the sound horrible to the point that I can't understand what the other one is saying. I don't use speakerphone that often, so if you could just give it a try calling your voicemail, maybe I'm not the only one with this.
Not don't have it yet will update once I do and is if it ever happens again.

probably not a bug but annoying: since the update msn toggles online/offline with the screen; people think i'm unavailable on msn (yes i still use msn )
Hello,
Like 3 months ago I have bought myself an HTC One S. It always worked well in the beginning, but recently I started having some problems with it.
It's about the sound. Very often I suddenly have no sound anymore. (This is a problem that is not similar to other posts about problems with sound)
If the problem encounters:
- I don't hear ringtones.
- If I call someone, I don't hear beeps but the phones does make contact with the other. The one I call does hear his phone ringing.
- I can't hear my own music. Also can't even play.
- No sound with the radio.
- I can't play videos/movies. Video/movie doesn't start. I get an "not supported" error.
- I get an error if I play Youtube video's.
- If I play games there is no sound. If I turn the volume louder in game, it's turning the Ringtone Volume louder, not the Media Volume.
- If the phone is starting up I first get the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and directly after that the animation screen (Also without sound).
Normally the screen is black for 3/4 sec before the animation screen.
Better said: all the media is not working. (Camera/mic, I don't know yet. I will find out today.)
I think it has also something to do with my Wifi. If I turn my Wifi on, the media stops working after an hour. But also without Wifi turned on the Media stops working but less earlier.
I can fix this problem by turn Wifi off and restarting the phone without the SIM. It's not always working but very often it does. If I restart my phone with SIM, the problem continues.
I already tried a factory reset, but the problem came back again.
Earlier I had rooted my phone and flashed some ROMs on it, but with not much succes. So I rerooted my phone and deleted recovery and used an RUU to make my phone as how it was in the beginning. I have the latest update now.
I have this problem like everyday and it kinda starts to irritate...
Can someone please help me with this?
same problems

I was was wondering if you have found a solution to this already? My HTC one S shows the same problems since yesterday.
Which One S do you have? S3 or S4?
Still got warranty?

What do you mean with S3 or S4. I'm a noob!
This is what I found in the map software information:
Software number: 3.16.401.8
HTC: sense version: 4+
Android: 4.1.1
edit: Did a little search on Wikipedia
Processor and memory
One version of the One S uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8260A SoC (system on chip),[3] which includes a 1.5 GHz dual-core Krait CPU and an Adreno 225 GPU, as well as an integrated HSPA+ modem, GPS/GLONASS module, Wi-Fi b/g/n radio, Bluetooth, and FM radio.[9] The One S also features a standard array of sensors, including an accelerometer, proximity sensor, and ambient light sensor. The phone provides 1 GB of RAM and 16 GB of built-in storage; however, the phone lacks a microSD slot for additional storage.
In certain markets, such as Taiwan,[10] India,[11] and some European (usually Eastern European) markets, the One S uses the older Snapdragon S3 MSM8260 SoC, with a 1.7 GHz dual-core Scorpion CPU and Adreno 220 GPU.[12] In some markets, both devices are available, notably the UK. The change is speculated to be caused by a shortage of Snapdragon S4 chips.[13] The two versions have slightly different packaging, the S4 is model Z520e/Z520m and states "Processor: Dual Core, 1.5GHz"/"CPu Speed 1.5 GHZ, dual core, whereas the S3 is model Z560e and states "Processor: Dual Core".
It says: 'Dual core'. So I guess it's the S3 then?
having the same sound problems
I'm having the same problems with HTC One. I can't hear the ringing when I'm calling someone, it just shows "dialing".
I can play music/video.

Hello,
Like 3 months ago I have bought myself an HTC One S. It always worked well in the beginning, but recently I started having some problems with it.
It's about the sound. Very often I suddenly have no sound anymore. (This is a problem that is not similar to other posts about problems with sound)
If the problem encounters:
- I don't hear ringtones.
- If I call someone, I don't hear beeps but the phones does make contact with the other. The one I call does hear his phone ringing.
- I can't hear my own music. Also can't even play.
- No sound with the radio.
- I can't play videos/movies. Video/movie doesn't start. I get an "not supported" error.
- I get an error if I play Youtube video's.
- If I play games there is no sound. If I turn the volume louder in game, it's turning the Ringtone Volume louder, not the Media Volume.
- If the phone is starting up I first get the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and directly after that the animation screen (Also without sound).
Normally the screen is black for 3/4 sec before the animation screen.
Better said: all the media is not working. (Camera/mic, I don't know yet. I will find out today.)
I think it has also something to do with my Wifi. If I turn my Wifi on, the media stops working after an hour. But also without Wifi turned on the Media stops working but less earlier.
I can fix this problem by turn Wifi off and restarting the phone without the SIM. It's not always working but very often it does. If I restart my phone with SIM, the problem continues.
I already tried a factory reset, but the problem came back again.
Earlier I had rooted my phone and flashed some ROMs on it, but with not much succes. So I rerooted my phone and deleted recovery and used an RUU to make my phone as how it was in the beginning. I have the latest update now.
I have this problem like everyday and it kinda starts to irritate...
Can someone please help me with this?

hey,
to keep this thread going:
i have / had the same problem. it started a few months ago and happened only occasionaly, recently it was basically all the time
there was no sound in- or output at all and all the apps that needed sound either crashed or gave an error
i was running some old aokp rom at the time, then tried fixing the problem by changing to some new version of cyanogenmod a few weeks ago but it didn't solve.
2 days ago i restored the stock htc rom with the RUU (ICS), the problem still remained. Then i upgraded to stock JB (4.1.1) and the problem hasn't appeared since.
of course the problem could reappear any time (as it only happened occasionally in the beginning)
let's assume the problem doesn't reappear again: anyone got an idea what caused this? i desperately want to switch to some custom rom again, stock is a pain in the ass :/
my phone: htc one s S4, unbranded EU version (htc_102 or something)
HBOOT-2.15.0000
RADIO-1.15.50.05.29
hope i could help and someone has some ideas
update:
i flashed cm 10.1.3 stable and used it for around 2 weeks without any (sound) problems.
since i had some trouble with force reboots when playing ingress i flashed carbonrom and one day later the sound problem reappeared.
back to cm now.
Same problems here

Hey, same Problem here...
..I had my old One S for 1,5 Years and this problems came up, so I sent it back and got a new one.
Only 4 days later the same problems came up again and i tried hard reset and many other things, recommended here, but nothing worked..
..has anybody an idea what it could be? There are a lot of people in a lot of different threads with nearly the same problems, but i can't find an answer that solves the problems...
PS: Sorry for my bad english
i've just had this delightful issue pop up over the past few days, too.
switched roms but the issue still remains.
Any of you have a logcat? Download "aLogcat" from the Play Store (you can filter it to only show errors - "E/").
I've been having similar issues and it makes the phone unusable. I ran a logcat and found numerous errors related to audio and the feedback I got was that it appears to be a hardware issue.
Post a logcat here and I'll see if you guys are getting similar errors.

installed it and will run it for a few hours to see what it gets.
should i change any of the settings on it or just run it vanilla?
I just ran it out of the box. Stopped it and then filtered it to show errors by searching for E/. Found a bunch related to audio.

i've decided for now i'm switching to magiorom as i've had a buttload of bootloops today on odyssey 3.21, so will monitor it tonight and see if there's anything to show.
for the short time i was running alogcat on odyssey, it didn't show much even though i was switch/using different apps, so that's why i was curious about if i should change anything.
anyway, i'll see how i get on and report back later
Just to keep this thread going I wanted to include some more things i've discovered while searching for a solution to this problem. I use a program called "error log dump" from the play store to view any system errors. The two most common ones I see are: "AudioPolicyManagerBase(261)" and "failed to enable the mixer controls for the speaker". The second one only appears after all sound is lost. Including any audio from phone calls even though it does connect the call.
Recently i've discovered an clue that seems to indicate that this is a software issue not hardware. Whenever I lose all sound I start up the error logging program and hit "start log". Several times the log program started acting weird and not record anything but the sound immediately came back. In fact that is how i usually solve the problem now.
I'm running a rooted and S-OFF phone with the MaximusHD rom. This problem started when my phone was completely unmodified so i know it's not a problem with the ROM.
Does anyone have any idea's as to which service might by causing this? I've searched and tried disabling everything that has to do with the audio.
I tried the above workaround with SIM out and WiFi off reboot, and I've got sound back. As soon as I finish a call all sound goes and can't play video etc until I perform the reboot thing again. Might this suggest something to do with the radio knocking out the sound? I'm a bit of a noob with all this but that's the idea I'm getting.
For the record I'm s-on, and this issue has been present for a few days now, on multiple roms (the issue remained on all 3 roms but is worse on magiorom).

This is why I was curious to see the errors you guys were getting.
I've tried various ROMs (4.2-4.4), kernels (3.0 and 3.4 based), and firmwares (2.15, 2.16, and 1.13) and still experience a loss of sound. Although I will say that lately it seems to be less frequent (Liquid Smooth 2.4, 3.0 based Bubba Vn5 kernel, hboot 1.13).
So I'm inclined to think it could be more hardware related for me at least. Turning my volume up and down repeatedly seems to fix it... usually.

So after using that work around for a bit, it seems notifications work fine, but anything that plays for more than about 10s kills audio again, but not permanently like phone calls.
Also, that alogcat stops recording as soon as it's in the background for me, don't know if that's another issue or connected?
E: this all seemed to start for me when my phone was left uncharged for 3 days

I ran it and called myself from another phone, watched the log, and then used the vol keys (which make that beep when adjusting sound) and watched the log. Saw the errors that way.
Yours appears to be slightly different than my issue anyways, but for what it's worth - I switched to ViperOneS (the last ROM I remember using that didn't have these issues) and my audio never dropped once.
Giving it a try now man, cheers for the heads up
