This is literally my 3rd transformer and I am still having this annoying popping sound. I'm sick of having to return this thing. Using the kernel with voodoo doesnt help either. I feel like if we allowed a sound file to play in the background all the time then this wouldn't happen. I know that's a stupid fix but idk what else to do. Any input?
What version of Android are you on? The popping noise only happened when I turned off the screen while music was playing.
After the 3.2 update, it no longer makes a popping noise. If your on any version under 3.2, I suggest you update and see if it's still there.

When you look in the settings, do you have different ringtones and notifications sounds listed as options, or do you only see 'silent'?

yes. in the ringtones and in the notifications, it has all the sounds there. just when i select the sound to preview it, no sound. The phone volume is up. so i know there should be sound. Also the vibrate works. so when a call comes in the phone cal still vibrate. thats how i know im getting a call. And I can use the phone as regular.
Airplane mode maybe? I don't know...sounds like your notification volume is all the way down in your sound / volume settings, but you probably already checked that.
Thanks for the insight peoples. I dont know what it it. Im just one of those, if aint complete it erks me, i guess ill have to deal with it. Or sell it. Pass it along im open to offers. Cosmetically perfect l. Has screen protector with extra and all the components. Phone is 4 months old.

Yeah, I don't like it when things are quirky, either. Have you tried doing a factory data reset?
I was watching a you tube video and the sound became choppy. I thought it was a bad video, so I went to another. I had no sound. Started checking things on my phone, and nothing. I rebooted, reflashed my rom, flashed back to stock, and nothing still... SOUNDS ARE GONE. Volume is turned all the way up. I am running beautiful sgs4g (GB 2.3.5). I flashed to the new official 2.3.6. I also did a factory restore, and wiped data/dalvik cache in the process of doing all this. Is there any fix for this?

Out of curiosity, do you hear sounds if you use headphones?
It might be the external speaker. I was listening to music cause I didn't have earbuds with me. Sound started to crackle and break up. I figured music player was malfunctioning. After some troubleshooting, called T-Mobile. Apparently it is a known hardware issue and covered by warranty. I don't have insurance on my phone, they replaced it for a $25 fee.

Yes I do actually. Good idea to test. Thanks. But, I already contacted samsung and it will be on it's way to Plano TX this afternoon for a free repair (still under warranty).

Why did they charge you $25? If it is a known hardware issue and covered under warranty, they should have just sent it in and had it fixed for free, or you should've contact samsung directly, and the repair would have been free.
Yeah, but I'm a schmuck.... FML.

Hello all -
Title pretty much says all, but I purchased a Razr Maxx HD on Saturday and after getting all my settings straight, I can't help but notice how loud the notification tone is. I've gone into volumes and set the notification to its lowest setting (can't understand why the volume is separated, but whatever), but when I get an email it is still very loud. Does anyone else believe their tone is unusually loud? Everything else sounds good, but I just can't figure out why this tone is so loud.
Lol yes. I came from an X2 and have noticed that the notification sounds are very loud even when on low settings.

Mine does the exact same thing.

Ok good, glad I'm not the one going crazy. Thought lowest volume setting would be good when the phone is on my desk at work. Little did I know the whole office would hear my notification even on the lowest setting....woke my wife up last night as well.

Thanks GoClif - call me stupid but I actually thought something might be wrong because the volume was so high. Glad to know it is normal.
Nah not stupid at all. One of the very first things I noticed when I unboxed mine.

Nice to see that I'm not the only one who gets scary by the loudness of the notification sounds that wakes up everyone at work when I get a message... Anything to do with this except going in silence mode?

Ya had the same issue with notifications

Not that this will fix your issue.. but I installed the JB leak an have noticed for one the speaker is quieter than when on ICS overall.. and the notification volumes seem to reflect what you would think you would get when setting them to a lower setting.

That's good to hear. I've rooted and installed roms on phones for a few years now (starting with the Epic 4G on Sprint), but I just haven't taken that leap on this yet. The Maxx HD battery lasts so long and the phone seems smooth enough that I haven't had any desire to. Not sure if you even have to in order to run the JB leak, but I haven't gone there yet.
Thanks for that heads up - hopefully that stays when it becomes official.
That's promising. Maybe Moto is aware and will fix it through JB.

I didn't root either the leaked firmware can be installed on a stock phone.. and then if you don't like something you can go back to the official firmware easily.. I am still on the JB firmware and I have no major bugs although battery life seems to be slightly less (still great though)
The leak seems to me to be an early JB build as it is even more "stock' android than the ICS version. The "people" app is stock JB (it doesn't have moto's black themeing applied.. which I actually prefer.) The navigation keys are stock as well.

Guys, I have to ask. How are you adjusting your volumes? Volume rocker or going into settings /sound and adjusting NOTIFICATION volume?
Since our moto device doesn't have the expanded volume control on screen, I go into settings to make the change. Volume is then, not so scary.

Was just gonna say that. So used to volume down changing everything but under sounds.... solves the issue haha.

Hey guys, I really need help... I'm scared for my phones life right now... I'm running aokp now and it's great. Everything is running perfectly until yesterday. Somehow my notification sound turned into that awful tri-tone sound from the iPhone (that's the only reason its awful) and the ringtone changed into that nasty Maramba tone. I've changed themes a few times so the only explanation is themes change sounds or my phone is turning into an iPhone. D: if this is the case there's only one thing to do, burn the phone then smash it by running it over in my truck.

From what I was aware of no because the theming normally just deals with icons and looks nothing every really with sound files
This is where it should be since it pertains to themes

Yes it can. Cm10 uses a cyanogen tone whereas stock at&t uses firefly or something like that. That's not to say it always does, but yes it can.

Hello I am experencing a really weird sound that randomly happens on my skyrocket that doesnt seem to be associated with anything. I am on slim bean build 7. I have turned off nfc because I thought that might be it but it was not. Any thoughts?
What is the sound, is it a notification sound, or a system sound?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
No clue, just a random sound that I never herd before. Doesnt matter if the phone is pluged it or not, if the battery is full or almost empty, still happens. I'll try and record it.

Haha! Should prove to be fun since it's been happening randomly. Let me know if you catch it and we'll see if we can't figure it out.

Do you have any Voip apps? Social apps? Most voip or social apps (Viber,Facebook,Skype,etc) have their own preset notification sound. If you have any of these apps check the settings. Turn off notifications for those types of apps maybe?
