[Q] My back speaker is barley working... - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

This just recently started. I went to put my friend on speakerphone and could barley hear him. It's the same with music, notification sounds, etc. It's like as if it was on half volume, but it's on max. The only thing I can think that caused this was I spilled a VERY tiny amount of ice cream on the speaker grill, and cleaned it off quickly.
I'm assuming everyone here is on at&t, so my question is would they replace it for me? I have the insurance, but I feel like they wouldn't know if it was moisture that damaged the speakers...would they maybe give me a free refurb? I'm past the 30 days btw too, had the phone since release date.
Oh and one more thing, kinda random but if they did give me a new phone, do you think they'd be fine giving me the black one? (currently have the white) Or if there might be any way to fix this, let me know. I'm doubting it though.. thanks for any answers!

The HTC one x speaker is low if u have phone or music it still low I was disappointed once I heard my music I was like Wtf lol only on some headphones they sound good

most of the apps that can do this require root.. so you don't have to flash roms but you'll likely have to root

I'm on viper, how do I get it to be loud like nocturnal SE? I just want the speaker to be loud as the SE rom, which was the rom I used before viper.

Beats Audio on my Atrix 2!

You guys see a member here ported Beats to work on any GB rom? I flashed it a few min ago but dont see an option to enable it? Anybody else done it yet and can confirm if we should infact see an option for it?
Sent from my MB865 using XDA App
There are no options with it.
It is a set of libraries that modify the audio tuning of the device. You "should" hear a difference with a good set of headphones.
What is the link to flash Beats audio?
Oh ok, time to bust out my Equation Audio's!

Really? That's it? Ok.
It was just a subjective before install and after experience. To me the bass was more pronounced but balanced.
You wont be able to tell a big difference unless you have a good pair of headphones.

I'm pretty sure that the Beats stuff is all hardware...
Nice find. I saw this on the D3 but didn't have the time to test if it would work with the A2.

Just to add to my OP.....
Just yesterday I was perusing the forums when I stumbled upon a thread re: Beats Audio and xLoud and got the itch to give it a go on my phone to see if it would work.....then I wimped out
So when I seen today that somebody got Beats Audio ported for use with any GB rom I jumped at it and flashed it right away without doing any before/after comparison so wasn't able to notice any difference at all on the speaker.
To install it I just flashed it via CWM...didn't wipe anything, then rebooted of course. Well, I forgot that last night I decided to use the "performance" speed governor via SetCPU which sets the cpu freq. to a static 1kHz and didn't take effect until reboot. So I started noticing that my battery was draining awfully fast and the only thing I could remember changing was me flashing Beats Audio so I ended up restoring the backup I made yesterday....but the abnormal battery drain persisted. Then out of the blue I remember about the "performance" governor and set it back to "mot_hotplug", rebooted and checked it out for a couple hours and sure enough that was the issue.
So at this point I decided it was a good time to reflash Beats Audio but first doing an a/b comparison. The IEM's I had handy at the time were MEElectronics M6-P's and the main difference I could tell was a much more defined low end, without being overpowering. The mids/highs seemed to be more natural sounding, not as "tinny" or hollow sounding. I definitely like what I hear!

I have the same problem. Dont know whats causing it other than rockstar havent programed somthing correctly.
Im running a HTC ONE XL, Telstra branded.
Same here - EVO 3D with ICS, sound is crackling
Same issue, att HOX. I thought it was beats audio at first, but even when you turn it off, the crackling remains.
You're not alone, I get the same with Max Payne, with GTA3, occasionally with Osmos HD... Some games are fine, others aren't.
I was having the same issue when I got the ICS update to my HTC EVO 3D. I contacted Rockstar and this is what they are telling me:
"I was talking to some people here in the office and they said that we have had previous problems with sound on the Ice Cream Sandwhich with GTA III Mobile. It looks like as of now there isn't a direct fix. You may want to revert back to your previous OS to fix the issue.
I'm really sorry for the inconvenience"
So yeah. Its all about the game and I dont think an update is coming for this issue. Not right now at least...

Yeah. I have this problem and it's really annoying. Only seems to happen when playing quality sound games like GTA. Doesn't happen in scramble free.
I called HTC support and they said it's because their speakers are too small.

No its not beacuse of HTC, its because of Rockstar and their programming. I was playing without any issues when I was running Andoird 2.3.4, but when OTA ICS update came, the crackling started. Its not becuase of the speakers, its all about the game.
I never tried GTA3 after the update, but it was fine for me when I was on 2.3.4, didnt had any issues, it was running without any issues just like Max Payne.
I'm happy to confirm that this issue stopped for me after installing the stock Asia 2.23 ROM. :good:
I never had that issue on my HOX, but I have on my TouchPad. It appears to happen for no rhyme or reason.

[Q] I do need some advice on this phone, thanx in advance

I want to replace my DHD, but Im not sure whether to choose a one x or galaxy note2.
Personally I love the design of one x and im fantastic about its UI, but after so many problem exposed im not so sure now.
galaxy note2 seems like a powerful phone, no interest on its UI but maybe a good phone.
I want to know if the problem with one x on the web is true and how good its performance is. i saw someone in DHD forum go back to DHD from one x, and not sure why.
Sorry for my messy expresson( maybe because im in mess....) but I do need some help
Hi. I do own both a DHD and a HOX. Since I bought a 64gb SD for the DHD and installed ICS on it I felt in love with my DHD again.
Don't get me wrong, HOX is a great phone! It's fast, makes great pictures and so on, but it has no place for an external SD card. I do want to have everything on my phone, from music to videos to games. With my HOX I have to watch carefully it's space.
If I were you, I would buy the galaxy s 3.
Press thanks, if it was helpful.

Lol there is an internal virtual SD card, of course it's possible to transfer stuff to and from a pc, leaving out such basic functionality would be ridiculous

better than iPhone; you do not need any iTunes like prog to transfer files, you can use OneX int storage as an usb storage as usual, mine is 32gb international model, I had also similar thoughts and hesitations as well at the beginning but this is not really a problem. I can easily transfer my camera shots, videos etc without problem.
The only concern, with my OneX, is wi-fi policy; it goes sleep when screen off, and this turns out a problem if you use it for ex. as remote control for other devices like tv, stereo etc in your home network like me, because reconnection to network is required each time you wake your phone, also the same issue makes streaming music via home network through your sound system unusable, just due to that. Otherwise, if you will not use your phone in that way, no any matters at all.
Note: in some custom roms this is already fixed afaik.

I think that the hox is the best phone on the market. My wife ownz a sensation, which is much better that the desire hd and the one x blows it away! The screen quality has no match and it is really fast. In the initial roms the hox had some problems but with that latest update from HTC everything works great.
I also use a custom rom which makes the one x to fly...
Buy the one that you like, all your options are great phones.
Get a Motorola razr maxx or wait and get a razr maxx hd.
Battery life is almost double, it is made by Google so you will get quick updates and there is an sd card slot.
I wish I knew it existed before I bought my one X.

Google bought Motorola for patents, they aren't in charge of their software updates.
Only Nexus devices get quick updates. No Motorola device (apart for the Xoom which is a Nexus) has got JB yet for example

Thanx for your pationt help,man.There's another thing coming to many mind that how much space we can use as Rom to install apps? If there is some storage work like the tf card, it cannot work like Rom at the same time.am I right on this?

It really depends on your network provider. I am living here in a deserted place in U.A.E and i haven't face this kind of problems yet.
If you pick One X, i am sure you'll not regret it, besides from its simple and good looking design, the phone itself is a beast, especially if you unlock your phone and install a custom rom, battery life will surely increase as well.

Music sound difference between roms

I just came from viperxl 3.2.2 to ICJ and my music is noticeably quieter. I have subwoofers in my truck and its a hassle to redo the settings every time I switch a ROM. Is there anything I can do to make the headset volume louder? Note I hate beats and have never used it so don't ask please

Those are a musicbox for sense music player and you can't take those and place them on a mother Rom without vemoms permission which they don't usually allow... But it wouldn't work you want to use dsp for aosp
I'm not sure if DSP is available on ICJ or AOKP, but I know for sure that it is available with CM10 and earlier builds of XsMagical's Dirty ROM (which in MY opinion are better).
If you're happy with ICJ you can try using an EQ just to see if it satisfies you.

Media volume is a pile of horse ****.

So I just realized tha even though this phone has been advertising its "amazing" sound system with the beats logo and such, the media output throught speakers is too damn quiet. Nokia phones go louder. So I was looking for a way to increase the out put with a mod or app. I tried volume+ already and no good. My phone is rooted and I am a noob to this stuff so explain it like you are explaining it to a dumbass...thanks in advance

The speaker is crap yes, but the quality if output on the HTC One S is higher than most phones, when using the headphone jack.

What I have done is bump my ringtone's volume on the pc (with audacity). Not really a solution, but...
You've got to bump and try on the phone to see the limit over which it gets distorted.

On JB, the speaker sucks
