NO.........

I just started having this same problem. Just rooted my phone and installed Android Revolution HD 6.5.2 XE. I have the Regular Sensation 4G. It worked great for a couple days, now anything that normally plays through the device speaker just makes a very very quiet ticking noise. You have to hold your ear almost to the phone to hear it. Headphones and earpiece work fine. I tried flashing the non XE rom, but got the same issue. I read through 8 pages of searches and didn't find any resolution, just a few other people that had what sounded like the same issue. Has anybody fixed this without replacing the phone?

I have JUST got the exact same problem, in-call (front) speaker works, but if I switch to loudspeaker during call it goes silent, save for sticking your ear to the phone in which case you can hear that the rear speaker is making a constant clicking/oscillating type sound, albeit very quiet. This issue I initially presumed to be ROM related, but the issue persists across the board, AOSP, Stock, all ROMs. Thus I have also just ordered a replacememt speaker and will post the results.

I have the exact same problem with mine s4 active

disassemble phone and make sure the speaker is seated correctly, if it's seated correctly then you might have a duff speaker, alternatively try a bog standard rom aka default one, and see if it works

[UPDATE] New speaker arrived, took everything apart, swapped speakers, rebuilt, booted up, pressed the volume up button- 'no sound'! Pressed the volume up button with ear to the loudspeaker and there it is again- quiet clicking sound, best way I can describe it is that it sounds like a mini tazer! Took everything apart again, checked connections over and over (bearing in mind the loudspeaker just has two pins that rest directly on to the circuit board itself- I.e not hard to check), rebuilt, rebooted, same problem! Did a nandroid of my current and flashed a stock ROM,,, SAME PROBLEM!
Either the replacement speaker is also duff, or I am seriously missing something. :banghead:

there are two speakers in the sensation as far as im aware, also have you tried another rom aka viper or revolution etc

I'm stumped, love my old Sensation too so I'm relying solely on vibration to no miss calls. As I said, across the board..
I had Sultan's CM11 but had bugs so i reverted back to my nandroid of Albinoman's CM10.3, which is when it happened! Which made me think it was software related, but I've tried all ROM bases since to rule out all variables and it persists. Switching the loudspeaker and still there, checking the motherboard and all other connections and nothing makes a difference. Possibly the new speaker is also a duff?

did you do a full wipe, i would try going back to the basic ruu rom that came with the phone before giving up, although you will lose root, woth a try
as you could root again, have a go

I Always do a full wipe when I flash any ROM. I backup all apps and data with Titanium, then enter 4EXT to make a nandroid of current ROM, then do a full wipe- system, cache, Dalvik, before I try a new ROM, time consuming I know but that's probably one of those OCD'esque things I do. And I've taken similar consideration in trying to rule out what this could be. I'll try one more time your suggestion!

Lost Sound on 4 phones - Help Please

I lost all sound on four HTC TOUCH Pro 2 phones. Sounds unbelieveable I know, but true. I have WM 6.5, and a very new build from Verizon.
When I clear out the device, using the 1234 to go back to the original ROM, there is still no sound. Now here is the question, does this mean it is definitely a hardware issue, or is it possible that a 3rd party app. can still be in effect. I would really like to know if I have gotten 4 phones with hardware issues or if it is a bad app I am installing, like reremind perhaps. Thanks for any help!!!!
Details of sound loss:
Small variances in sound loss with each phone. Two of them were very similar. One showed the symbol for a plugged headset, however no headset was plugged in. Absolutely no sound using phone using handset or speaker, or playing music, however the phone would ring. Second one was essentially the same, except no icon on top, but I could use the audio booster, which you can only use when a headset is plugged in, so essentially the same.

Have you flashed a custom ROM? If not, then download the latest ROM update from Verizon's website and flash that. Doing a hard reset still leaves traces of past applications on the internal memory. The official ROMs clear out the memory before it flashes the radio and ROM. This gives you a true "clean" install. Obviously, make sure to back up your stuff before doing this, as it will erase everything on the device.

[Q] Incall sound disappeared...

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

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

Microphone problems

For some reason the microphone on my Sensation is no longer working
The microphone is incredibly quiet (shouting sounds like a whisper), but there is obviously still some response. Occasionally I get a "popping" noise from the microphone.
I'm trying to work out what could have caused the issue. I'm using Albionman's CyanogenMod 10.1 Jellybean 4.2.2 Rom and no other users have reported a problem with it. The only thing I can think of that might have caused an issue is flashing a new radio and RCdata.img file. I've tried changing the radio and it's not made a difference, but I'm not sure if there's any way of getting rid of the RCdata? Could the radio even make a difference to the microphone?
Does anyone have any other ideas for fixes or ways to find out if this is a software or hardware isse? Any help people can offer would be great! :good:
Quick update and some extra info:
I've tried flashing different ROMs on there and it's made no difference. I get the same whisper level sound in calls, sound recorder and video.
Does the video use the two microphones separately to record sound? If so, if one was broken then I'd still expect the sound to be a lot louder than it is (though obviously not normal volume). The chances of both microphones breaking simultaneously seems kind of slim...
Replaced microphone... still not working
So today my replacement microphone turned up and I set to work replacing it. I plugged it in and powered up the phone to check it was working and I STILL have no microphone :crying:
This leads me to believe that it must be a software problem, so does anyone know what things can affect the microphone? I've tried different ROMs, different radios, taking the SD card out and seemingly everything else
Any ideas?????
Edit: sound is exactly the same with microphone unplugged completely
I flashed the stock RUU yesterday and the microphone came back
I then foolishly decided to try installing a custom ROM and the microphone stopped working. I thought I'd be able to flash the stock RUU again and fix the issue but this time flashing the stock RUU didn't work :crying: I'm wondering if I've got a bad sector on the ROM or something... :crying:
again install stock RUU then

No sound via headphone jack or speaker: Stock JB

I picked up this phone from a frustrated buddy. It has no sound via headphone jack or speaker. I installed PowerAmp, so that I could tell if the headphone jack was detecting the headphones, and it is. It originally had GB, but I upgraded to JB stock via Kies and the problem persists. He did a factory reset before he gave it to me to tinker with.
Oddly enough, the in call ear speaker works fine! When I put the call on speakerphone, I get no audio, so I assume that uses the rear speaker also?
It's a really cool little phone, so I'd like to get it working. I'm guessing it's hardware, and I have no problem tearing down a phone (I've replaced glass before on numerous phones for friends). Any ideas where to start? I see both the headphone jack assembly and the lower speaker assemblies are both available reasonably. I'm inclined to just replace the rear speaker assembly, but kinda stumped as to why the headphone jack doesn't provide any audio, so maybe that's not the way to go. Anyone have any tips on where to start, based on my diagnosis?
Start with flashing back to stock UCMC1 ROM using Odin. Many times Samsung Kies attempt to "upgrade" leaves some things behind and it doesn't do a clean install.
Even after you flash with Odin you still have to go to recovery and wipe/factory reset data and cache.
Links to how to use Odin, where to get stock ROM and restore to stock are all in stickies and threads for newbies by Vincom in this forum under development tag.
Please read well before attempt.

OK, I flashed JB stock ROM via Odin, but same issue persists. Seems like it's hardware, so anyone have an idea what to replace next?
So both bottom speakers (speaker phone) and headphone jack produce no sound? But the ear piece does. Correct?

Yes. The only speaker that makes sound is the ear piece during calls. The headphone jack produces no discernible output, nor does the 'loudspeaker' on the back, for lack of a better term! I assume there is a boot-up sound, like my AT&T Note, but it's dead silent at boot too, which jives with the other symptoms.
Hope that helps!

This is one of those strange things ... any waterdamage signs?
I'm thinking try factory reseting from recovery (wipe everything), and then also flash stock JB I727UCMC1 using Odin.
That should rule out all of the software things we wonder.

I did these earlier, but had no luck. I did open the phone and have ordered a lower speaker assembly for $8. I didn't see any water damage in the lower half of the phone when I cracked it open. If this doesn't fix it, I may splurge and spend $6 to try the headphone jack. If THAT doesn't work, I'm going to part it out

Ear piece speaker buzzing?

Hi,
I've had two Moto G's. both have been returned/replaced due to the ear piece/speaker buzzing like a kazoo when someone speaks/audio is heard through it.
I can now only assume it's dust that's caused this to happen, as I use my phone in a reasonably dusty environment occasionally through work.
Has anyone noticed similar problems? Anyone know ways to prevent/cure this should it happen again?
I came here to post this same thing. Mine was fine until shortly after the latest ota. I plan on calling Motorola soon, just haven't gotten around to it.

It could have changed after an update for me too. The only physical change could be the dust, but this seems unlikely because it excluded to a fairly modest amount very briefly!

Have the same problem! I got a new moto g because the 1st one was doing this cracking sound during calls both on 4.3 and 4.4!
The one has the same problem AGAIN!! i am very angry with this because i feel like the phone is fake and very cheap with this extreme bad sound i will try contact motorola
Στάλθηκε από το XT1032 μου χρησιμοποιώντας Tapatalk
I'm also having this problem. In fact, I'm on hold right now with motorola as I call to swap my second phone for the same reason. I started having the problem on my first phone a few weeks ago. The second phone had the buzzing problem as soon as it arrived. In both cases the phones have buzzed intermittently and tapping them face down hard against my palm seems to stop the noise for a bit. That isn't a good option because you have to tell the person on the other end to hold the phone away from their ear while you do it. It suggests to me that there is something like sand in the speaker.
We have three phones. One other has had almost no use, while the third has had a huge amount of use as phone and audio player using the headphone. Yesterday the speaker on that last one stopped working altogether. It only works with headphones. I assume it doesn't recognize the headphones have been removed. I don't believe it had the buzzing problem.
I love the phones otherwise.
I have sucessfully solved the problem in two moto g's
Hello to everyone.
First of all, I'd like to thank to everybody that have been developing the threads that as made this possible.
I have read many pages trying to understand the problem.
But I'm going to explain the whole process. I HAVE DONE THIS WITH SINGLE CHIP MOTO G 16GB AND MOTO G 8GB BOTH GSM!!!!
You can find the problem starting the call in a quiet place and you'll see that the sound is good, then in the same call you put some music playing around you and you'll start to have the issue. Try it and you'll find that is what happens.
I've seen mostly on Ebay, that this earpieces are selling like cakes, but definetly you don't have a broken earpiece, and you can test it activating SETTINGS-» DEVELOPER OPTIONS-» USB DEBUGGING, then you go to the dialer an dial this code *#*#2486#*#* or you may see in app drawer an app called CQAtest, it's the same thing, but this is only possible with USB DEBUGGING ENABLED.
Now that you have entered in the test menu you see two bars, select the first one, then select AUDIO, after that you see EARPIECE, click on it and make the BUZZ TEST, when it starts you should put your phone next to your ear. You'll be listening an harmonic sound that starts on a lower frequency and goes to an higher frequency, and it wil be repeating itself.
In this step you can for sure know if you earpiece has problems, if you don't listen any distortion in the loop that it's played, THEN YOU HAVE A FULL OPERATING EARPIECE. Otherwise, it's faulty and you should replace it ( I REALLY DOUBT THAT YOU HAVE A FAULTY EARPIECE).
OK. Now that we have tested the earpiece and we found that has nothing wrong with it, we have to take another steps.
THIS INVOLVE FLASHING THE WHOLE FIRMWARE TO JB 4.3 BUT IT WILL WORK REALLY BEATIFULL
I've taken the Android 4.3-Blur_Version.14.91.11.falcon_umts.Retail.en.DE that is the one that really solve the problem, from sbf.droid-developers.org.
Both Moto G's were UK retail one with 4.3 first version (never updated, that so it couldn't install apk's unless they were downloaded from Playstore or GDrive) and the other one with 4.4.2, this can tell us that it is not a problem caused from updating firmware.
I really think even Motorola isn't aware of this problem caused by a little piece of software on the phone.
BEFORE YOU FLASH THIS FIRMWARE, YOU CAN TRY IF IT SOLVES THE PROBLEM GOING RIGHT TO THE SPOT.
Go to SETTINGS--» SOUND--» AUDIO EFFECTS.
Now you'll see a switch that can be turned to OFF, you can try this at first, go back all the way until the app drawer, search your dialer and make a call, could be to your voicemail or another service from your operator that you're sure you aren't paying. Iniciating the call in a quiet environment you can listen well but if you put some music to play from a radio or something that it is near from you, that will increase the surrounding sound and makes the problem reapears, if the switching OFF AUDIO EFFECTS doesn't solved the problem. Try this several times to make sure that the problem it is still there.
If the problem persists go to SETTINGS--» SOUND--» AUDIO EFFECTS and you'll see WIRED STEREO and SPEAKER. In the Speaker badge set Equalizer to OFF and repeat the process of the call in quiet and during the call add surround sound with a level that can match the volume of the call. Then again, if the problem resides in there it will reveal himself right in that point. Try this several times to make sure that the problem it is still there.
If the problem it is there after this whole process and tests, then to get rid of it FOR SURE, reflash or downgrade to the firmware I've mentioned before. After reflash, Go to SETTINGS--» SOUND--» AUDIO EFFECTS, select the SPEAKER badge and turn the equalizer to OFF.
Make the tests I've mentioned before in call quiet, and with surrounding music and you'll be pleased that THE PROBLEM HAS GONE FOREVER.
Hope I've helped.
Cheers
I'm on my 2nd Moto G due to the buzzing earpiece problem. My Moto G is running stock non-rooted 4.4.3.
I used the sequence you mentioned to run the BUZZ TEST and I didn't hear any distortion at all! Amazing!
I'm having some trouble following your instructions though. I did turn off Audio Effects completely. However, the problem still persists. Can you explain why this would produce a buzzy sound in the earpiece?
Possible Solution
Hi everyone!
I found a peculiar solution. Maybe don't work for everyone, but worked with my Moto G and it's very easy to perform.
First, some comments about my case:
I've followed every step described by @jomedeiros ...I performed the CQAtest and the buzzing noise is clearly heard in the BUZZ TEST, especially in the low frequency sound at the begin of the harmonic sound. I should clarify that the buzzing sound was almost unbearable, like a broken speaker.
My Moto G is running stock non-rooted 4.4.4 (latest ota).
I set all the audio effects OFF, equalizer to OFF, etc... etc... But the buzz was still there.
My solution?
Vacuum cleaner!!!
Yes, too easy right? But works!!
I removed the back cover of the Moto G and with the crevice tool accessory, aspirate all the sides of the phone, then for several seconds on the rubber piece where the cancelation mic was, and specially all over the earpiece metal grid, then tapping the phone face down hard against my palm and aspire the earpiece again, from one side to another (gently taking care not to scratch the glass with the vacuum accessory).
In the first round with the vacuum, the buzzing sound drops significantly, and with one second attempt, the earpiece returned to the original sound, clear and undistorted.
Well... In my case should be only dust, but worth the test because here in Argentina the technical service it can take up to 90 days :/
Perhaps it's worth noting I'm designer and don't spent too much time in dusty spaces. Maybe the little dust in the pockets is enough!. Who knows!

Hello everyone.
In the case of the moto G that had the 4.4.2 version, I've downgraded to this one, 4.3.
What is the cause of this problem?
I really don't know, but before reflashing with the mentioned firmware, I have tried all kind of things, also the vaccum cleaner (BUT BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU USE THE VACCUM CLEANER, IT CAN DAMAGE FOREVER THE EARPIECE) including reflashing with the original firmware (UK) among others and the only solution untill today remais the same. Reflash with the firmware 4.3 bold mentioned in the first post that I' ve wrote.
I can tell that both phones still working very nice until today, and the problem of the earpice has never happened. But both are in the version 4.3. and so far I can tell, everyone that has upgraded their phones have tons of problems with them, so mi wife and my mother prefer to stay with the 4.3 version (so do I because I don't like of what they have done to Android from the 4.3 to the day of today, I have a Note 2 and I'm still with the 4.1.2, because they've messed the Android system in the upper versions and I refuse to upgrade. So this are preferences of each user).
XDA doesn't let me post the direct link here to download the firmware.
So maybe throug pm?
Hope I've helped. Cheers

ANOTHER SOLUTION TO SOLVE THE BUZZING BUZZ EARPIECE MOTO G
I have the same issue that many of us had, the buzzing earpiece.
SOLUTION:
- I bought 2 earpiece from ebay 3€ both.
- Then I dissasembly the phone, like is this youtube tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycER7MH61l8
Its simple you only have to care about the conector, but slowly Ive done it.
- To desatach the battery I use a cut credit card to lift it up and to unglued the black conector from the screen. (i didnt use the hairdrier)
- Then I put the 2 earpiece BUT still making the buzzing noise!!!!
. Then I move the metal spring conector on the earpiece to make it stronger and turn it the other way to use the other 2 conectors that are in the motherboard.
- And voilá, the noise is gone!
The original earpeice probably was working, but I broke it when taking out.
(I know theres some mistakes, but you undestand)

Is upgrading moto g to marshmello will solve the buzzing sound problem
Does upgrading to marshmello helps
Earspeaker always bRRRzzing
I post in this old thread because is the only I found googling which try to give some (and different) solutions to the earspeaker making "GRRRR".
My XT1032 has the problem. My first attempt was to wipe, than to reset, then to change TWO earspecker (one from England as OEM and one sold as compatible from Italy), then to try the simcard into another phone (and it works very well inside an Y300, I can't believe that into MotoG 2013 VS Y300 match the first loses ) then to unlock and install a Cyanogen, then rotating the speaker during assembly (in the printed circuit there are 4 fields to give connection and only a pair is used at time), then moving the 2 spring connectors to try to give better stronger connections. From one try to the other the problem persists also using the service menu. So at the last point I revert and changed again the speaker with the original piece. Vivavoice is good and the ear phones too, no distortion.
My conclusions? The original speaker is bad (and I can see that the transparent sheet of nylon is not well plain), the second was worse but very similar in results, the last was really bad and if with the original I obtain a distortion in a window in the low harmonic with the compatible I obtain a distortion in all the low harmonic, from start to the middle.
So, now, the question to anybody who has similar problems: maybe the two earspeakers I bought were not good, or maybe the circuit (I think the ampli) is broken?
Changing the phone because it works very well but not well as a phone is a bit..... frustrating, the battery (original) is good for my needs and the screen too, but trying to change other 1, 2, ... 10 earspeakers without a reply is a dead end....
Solved

Ok, problem solved: this time the eraspecker from eBay was good! It come, again, from england. The first two were simple broken new guarenteed not working special price original best than sh**t Pentium inside tax free etc etc. Maybe some rule should prevent to sell broken new spares damn!
