Hey guys, for anyone that can shed some light upon me on what's going on with my phone would greatly help. Basically, receiving any kind of text message at any time the sound skips/lags/stutters 80% of the time. Its SUPER annoying. I have searched and searched and searched for a solution but cannot find anything. It may be because of the verbiage I am using. I'm not sure. I am on my replacement S3, the first one did it. I got this one, tested it before rooting it, still issue, BRAND NEW NON-ROOTED PHONE! Rooted, tested several ROMS, several notifications, stock/custom, even third party notification managers like LightFlow. Even my girl's virgin S3 has the issue. It really seems like a known issue from my end but NOONE posts about this! I dont know what to do........ Please help someone. Thanks in advance.
I dont have that issue nor have I ever heard of it. Are you using a downloaded sms app or running your own mp3 for a notification?
I don't have that issue. Are u sure light flow isn't messing it up? Clear data on the app and uninstall it. My light works just fine.

Normally, what I prefer to use is LightFlow with custom notifications downloaded from the Zedge app. I will try again to only use default ringtones and also disable LightFlow to see what happens. But guys, this doesn't make any sense. I experienced this issue out the box twice, with nothing extra on the software. I am an advanced user modding and troubleshooting for years. I even work for Verizon as Technical Support Coordinator, but this is literally the first issue I have ever experienced in Android that I just cannot figure out.
I did find a similar issue people are facing which pertains to ringtones cutting off short, not finishing, vibrating until the immediate cut off period. The conclusion to that was supposedly a known issue Samsung needs to correct. But most people don't experience. Which drives me insane!
As I typed this my phone reached the low battery mark and notified me with that low battery sound. THAT JUST LAGGED TOO!!! UGH!! I don't know guys.

I'm using the default text messaging app with notifications turned on, default ringtone silent, vibrate never so that the LightFlow app can take over

Anyone else notice that they're not getting notifications for some received texts on the Inspire? It seems to be random, and I don't notice the new text until I open up the messaging app and see it there, I don't get sound/vibrate or anything in the notification bar. I'm using the Inspired ROM and rooted but I don't think that's the cause of the problem.
I noticed the same thing this morning. I'm completely stock for the moment.

Well, I guess I'm glad it's not just me. I hope somebody has a fix for it.
I only sent a test message last night after I got the Inspire and it was received and I was notified without issue. Then I installed Handcent and turned off stock messaging app Notifications and Handcent has been working fine.
Rooted with a dhd rom here. I didn't think I was having this problem but checked my messages and sure enough I had one from a hour ago I never got a notification about..... the gf soooo isn't going to believe me its my phone again.

I had a similar issue where my 2 Gmail accounts weren't giving notifications when I received new email. Also my Sense clock/weather wasn't always updating the weather when I unlocked the phone.
I ended up doing a factory reset and reinstalled all my apps manually and everything appears to be fine at the moment.
Yep, same problem. Seems to only happen later in the day?
ditto

Anything guys?? This is really frustrating
Really need help with this. Bump.

I've had the same thing happen. I was in the middle of a conversation and it seemed like the other person just disappeared. Was going to send them another text when I noticed they had actually responded.
The issue clearly hasn't been resolved... It's happening to me as well. No notification. Or I get it, hear it and feel it, and then unlock my phone and no notification in the top bar or on the msg icon on my homescreen. But its def there when I open msgs....this is very frustrating as I've been patiently waiting by my phone for an answer about a new job. Has anyone had a fix for this? I'm completely stock no root. I'm about to go on to ATT and have words with them if it can't be resolved I'm geting a new phone...this is stupid we can't get basic functionality to work....out of the box.
You could try using a different SMS app like Handscent that does notifications itself. I think Go SMS does notifications too.
Or they could admit there is an issue and fix it. I shouldn't have to get a third party app to do basic phone functions like sms and phone. Wtf!
Or you could root your phone instead of expecting AT&T to fix something when it takes them months just to release updates for things that should have been included in the first place.
Well its not really on ATT its on HTC. And besides rooting would void my warranty. And if I get this job ill be leaving the country, in which case id like to return the phone as I doubt it will do me much good in the Netherlands. Either way. Shoulda worked correctly out of the box. It's an HTC sense/Rom issue not an ATT service issue.
Have the Thunderbolt set up for making sound when touching screen. The screen will work as it should and then without reason it will get very soft and sometimes completely stop making any sound. Checked all my settings and they are as they should be. I also have the Sensation and the screen is set up the same way and it works properly. Is there something I'm overlooking or is this another bug?? Any help would be welcomed. Running stock Thunderbolt.
Thanks,
restart phone and go from there

It's a bug of some kind. I've had it since the day I bought my TBolt(Launch Day). I think the reason its not heard about much is because most users don't use the screen sound option and also because a lot of users here and at AC root and flash custom roms.
I'm still running launch day software because it just works for me for the way i use my device.... this being the only bug that affects me. I rooted and flashed this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013577
and the issue went away so if it really bothers you I would go that direction. I assume other custom roms fix it as well but I cannot comment as the above is the only rom I flashed before going back stock and un-rooting.
Thanks for your input, checked other sites and found other people with same issue. Going to root this thing anyways and I'm sure the new Rom will fix the issue. Might check out the one you downloaded, looks pretty fast.
Thanks again.
Driving me insane. Doesn't matter what ROM I'm running, it does it 90% of the time for incomming and outgoing calls.
Anyone have any ideas?
Mine randomly does this as well. It's a rather unpleasant experience to have the speakerphone on @ your ear when someone responds to your answering the phone.
I've had mine turn on in the middle of a call once or twice. I thought I had somehow hit something not knowing it.
Had that problem. Believe it has something to do with the "car dock" mode. somehow it gets turned on or something. Don't really remember what I did other then try resetting it, pulling battery, or just smacking the crap out of it onto a table or something. I'm serious, not hard enough to break it but enough to fix it hehe. I'm actually pretty sure that's what I did lol.

I'm having this issue all of a sudden as well. All I know, is it didn't do it before I got the Gingerbread OTA update, and now it does.
Very annoying!

Same issue here. Running stock non-rooted GB. Also on wife's LG Phoenix. Could be something sent down from ATT?
Try going to settings - dock - remove check from Auto-launch. I'm wondering if it thinks for some reason it's docked and therefore defaulting to Speaker
Just found out that GoSMS was the problem. Updated on both phones and the problem is gone. They actually admitted to it with the update description.
I have the same issue. Went as far as flashing back to stock unrooted. Still occurred. I believe its a hardware problem with the usb on the phone. Something about the contacts crossing.

GoSMS Pro was doing it for me. Uninstalled and problem went away. I'm gonna reinstall to see what happens.
Just updated my GoSMS, and was surprised to see the issue came from there. It will be nice to not have to deal with this anymore!

Was there a solution to this issue? Because I have the same issue, but I do not have the GoSMS app.

If you read the thread you would have seen that the two causes of the problem were dock mode and also go sms. Not to mention this was dug up from 3months ago
Thanks for your reply.
Guess I should have mentioned dock mode does not seem to be whats causing it on mine.
I understand this was dug up from 3 months ago, but I am having the issue now was good back then.
Same happens with me... i hav removed dock mode also but still have speaker always on..
any solutions?
I recommend root and custom rom. Never had this problem since then.

Okey I am having this problem on every rom whether its ics or gb.
The culprit is carhome app.I have be after this problem since I got my inspire. It gave me whole lot of trouble. Latest one is force auto-rotate screen.
Another thing is u need original inspire charger and usb. If u have anyone thing which is not original. Carhome app will cause problems. Unfortunately my inspire charger and USB r broken.
The only solution is to open the rom zip delete carhome.apk and carhomeluncher.
How I come to conclusion.
I charged my phone then flashed aospx rom everything was fine no auto speaker, no forced auto rotation but as soon as I connected my USB carhome app pops up and
All these problem started to happen again.

Hi, I have the same problem with the New Att stock sense 3.0 (3.20.502.52) rooted ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810461
The Car Panel app was launching randomly, so I first froze it using root uninstaller, no more car panel launching, but my screen started randomly turning on while in sleep, so I completely uninstalled Car Panel, my screen still goes on sometimes, and it did not solve the speaker always on problem.
Cheers.

Once carhome starts there is no way to solve the problem.even after removing it problem remains.
Best solution is delete it from the zip before installing

I have found my screen won't stay off when I hold it up to my ear. Light sensor is very sensitive or my ear is shaped weird... Probably the later. I then think 'fat facing' because of this has attributed to random hangups and speaker phone engagements.

I've not seen anyone here mention this, but it's being discussed on other Android forums. Thought I'd post here on XDA in hopes that some of the more technical members of this forum might have some input or ideas.
I noticed one day recently that the Google Navigation voice was so low I couldn't hear the directions over the sound of my car's A/C, which I know had not been the case before. All volumes were at max. This continued for the rest of the day, and all ringtones and notification sounds were very low. IT was so dramatic, I just assumed the speaker went bad, and I was going to have to make an insurance claim over a defective phone.
I happened to reboot the phone that evening and instantly the speaker volume was 3-4x as loud as earlier that day. I thought it was a one-time thing, but now realize that this happens 3-4 times a week. I'll notice I can't hear any of the notification sounds very well, reboot the phone, and all is well.
Except, this is a pain in the @ss to have to reboot constantly!
Has anyone experienced this? I thought I would recognize a pattern, like some app I use regularly or something, but nothing seems to make sense... seems very arbitrary, but aggravating nonetheless.
As I said, this is being talked about on a lot of the other HOX forums, but I haven't seen it mentioned specifically here. I almost want to say it started after the AT&T update last month, because I never noticed it before that. I'm on stock AT&T HOX, not rooted, and only a handful of the 'regular' popular apps. I don't even have music on the phone, nor have I ever used earbuds with it.
Very frustrating!
I have had the exact same thing happen, no clue why though.
I started a thread awhile back. Mine does the sane as well.. pissed..hope its software issue
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Same here, I'm leaning towards it being a software issue due to a reboot always fixing it.
What ROM are you on?Custom or Stock?Any mods done to the phone?I had the same issue with the phone volume being to low on a custom rom, until I went into recovery to wipe cache/dalvick and everything was good/loud again.

I can vouch for this solution. I had the same issues on my HOX when I installed a custom ROM.
In the "Special Notes" section of the CleanROM v4.1 notes, it states:
Volume may be quite. If so wipe cache's and reflash the ROM. Volume should be loud again.

Hopefully it's as simple of a fix as this!!
I'm completely stock, no custom ROMs, not rooted.
I have the same problem, stock and rooted. I recently started noticing it. It didn't always happen to me.
I do use Tasker to put my media volume all the way down once i exit my car. Then I use Elixr 2 to put all my volumes to high once I use my "home" profile. I think it might be cause of that. Since I've stopped using exlir to raise the volume, I haven't noticed the issue. But I have restarted my phone every 2 days recently for another issue so it is possible that I am fixing it each time before the symptoms start to occur

Has anyone found a permanent solution to this? It's my only gripe. I have tried two sense roms. I love HTC camera so I don't want asop. Volume plus doesn't help when volume drops off.

Do you hear a difference between when it's low and then restarting your phone and trying it again?

I can't detect any difference and if there is it is too small to detect. I tried to amplify the sound with Volume+ and there is no detectable difference. But if I use the speaker for a call, at maximum volume, it is really really loud so the speaker is definitely capable of more. But with Satnav GPS apps, at default settings, between the One X and my old Galaxy S2, there is a night and day difference
I too had these issues on replacement phone I got from att but it resolved automatically after few days

this problem causes due to an App, in my case previous version of Viber App caused all this issues....
hope you solve this prob
so, ever since a couple of months ago, i have been having some problems receiving notifications with applications like whatsapp, facebook messenger etc.. push applications. the issue is, 50% of the time im receiving the msg's with big delays (up to 20-25 minutes) and some others i don't receive them at all until i turn the screen on.. as soon as the screen is on, bam, i get the msgs..
this was happening when i was using stock ICS FTF on c1505 (single sim) so i thought: "well, maybe its the rom acting up since its supposed to be for the dual sim Xperia E" and i went ahead and flashed stock Jelly Bean and guess what... the exact same thing happens!
now.. i thought it could be my wifi but, happens on 3G aswell... i have no task managers that might be closing the applications and battery saving mode is totally disabled... does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? i searched around but found no one with the same issue... so i really have no idea how to fix it

i appreciate your reply but i don't really understand it? you mean i should NOT turn notifications off? all the background sync/data options are enabled
I know what you talk about. Sometimes I have this problem too. But with my phone it's fixed by just reading the notifications...
I know it sounds strange, but whenever this happens,(for example a WhatsApp notification) I just open the app and read it. Then the phone performs fine. I have only had it like 10 times in 4 months, so for me it's nit a big deal.
But I can understand that it's terribly annoying.
Unfortunately I have no clue whatsoever how to fix it! Sorry.

it really is because i use whatsapp way more than normal sms's.. so i'm always giving late answers to people and always receiving msgs late that sometimes contain important information... well.. i have been searching across google and xda forums and some people have the same issue on other devices.. however i haven't come across any fix that actually works
Have you turned stamina mode on?or some battery mod?
They disable data traffic when screen is off..preventing push notification..
