Hi, i search a way to fix the sound problem with my TF101;
Sound cut ramdomly and we must make pressure or shake it to fix it...
I saw many reason on the internet about this problem.
Firmware; Audio Jack.. etc
i open it to check if all are ok (wire connection) and its ok.
I see a way to disable the audio jack detection but i need to modify the kernel and recompile it... its a bit harder for me.
There is a program or something like this to fix this problem ?
Thx alot!

Check out the Kat Audio app and Kat Kernel if you are using a custom ROM. Both can be found in the developer forum. When I started using them on my TF101, all was good again!
Thx alot ! I will try this!
If you have to apply pressure or shake the tablet to get the audio to work again, I doubt it's software issue, it sounds like a hardware problem, maybe a dry solder or earphones wires have snapped inside
Doesn't sound like a software issue...I am curious if the sound goes out over headphones also? That would take the speakers out of the equation which it doesn't sound to be since you checked the wires. May point to the amplification circuit going out.

Hi all,
ICS 4.0.3
Ver. 3.32.707.10
I was wondering if anybody else is encountering similar problems.
Ever since the ICS update, my music player, podcast player (beyondPod) and e-book audio player have gone crazy.
I cannot understand the logic behind it, but the player either stops, skips, pauses, jumps... u name it. Not all the time, but (please do not laugh!) when the car door is slammed shut.
It got me thinking. Is it the shock or the vibration? Tapping or gently bashing the phone does not disrupt the player. Only door of the car closing. It happens every morning and every night when someone gets off the car before me.
Rebooting, taking battery out, clearing out some stuff from my Micro SD... simple stuff to eliminate causes have had no success.
Only rebooting the phone can solve the problem. Force closing the app does not help.
I was thinking that after a heavy days use, maybe the RAM was running out, bu the problem starts even within 20 min of reboot, with no other unnecessary apps running.
I am using Jays headset app since my headphone has that button that allows me to stop/play skip and volume control etc. This has nothing to do with it? I have had it for a while since Gingerbread...
If it were apps from the market that was problematic, i can understand. But since this affects the stock music player as well as other audio related features, I am baffled.
Anybody else? Suggestions?
Found the definitive cause. But still have no solution.
OK guys and gals...
I had my podcast player and stock sense music player do crazy stuff on me, ever since the ICS update.
Maybe the scratched paint is the cause of headache for some people, and covering/insulating it may relieve it of problems, but my feeling is that for quite a few that have posted on this thread, their reasons of malfunction differ, and in fact, are on the same boat as I am.
Please read my post which is the link below to understand the full symptom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24511005
I am not sure if ICS update from GS is related to this problem directly or indirecty. All I know is that I had a happy sensation until the update OTA.
Here is the reason why I know that neither the paint or back cover of sensation is the cause of skipping/jumping/stopping/calling last contacted....
I tried the experiment with the back cover off, but I could not replicate the problem, thus no paint chip, back cover or short circuit of any kind is the answer.
So, by method of deduction, with the cover off, I tried wriggling the headphone in the socket to see if that had any effect. None. I tried plugging and unplugging. None. I tried using the remote button to control the music app and the podcast player. No problem. The play/pause/vol up and down etc all worked fine. I even uninstalled the jays app and tried. Without the app, the button on my headset does play and stop, answer and end calls. It got me thinking, and the environment it caused the symptoms only could point to the mic on my headphones.
And guess what? It is the bloody Microphone on the headset. I bet you there are some of you with this problem using the stock headset supplied that have built in hands free.
Basically, the pressure spike caused by slamming of he car door, is the same effect as blowing into the mic of the headset. And once this is done, the only way you can stop is reboot.
Since there have been no posts on this thread, and while I was hunting desperately for answers, I came across a different thread. Similar symptoms. I posted there too, so u might want to take a peep.

Weird symptom. Possible solution? (Apart from using headsets without mic)
I have the same problem with my Sensation after i flashed the ICS. I have flashed two different custom ICS and with both i had the same problem. The music app goes crazy. I haven't find any pattern on what is that that cause the music app go crazy. When I touch the jack of the headphones (the original headphones of the Sensation) the app start forwarding, skipping track pause, etc. Also the same happens when i put the phone in my pocket. I haven't found any solution but maybe is the signal from the microphone as you said. When i shake the jack i think that signal noise i created and makes the app go crazy.
I hope someone will find a solution soon.
I just found a way to hear music in my ICS Sensation. I just disabled the default music app in the app settings that comes with the rom and i have installed the ESfile explorer which has its own music player. I am using ESFileExplorer's music player and i don't have problems till now...
Hope this is useful for someone.
I think issue is software related. Look here:

Does it happen ONLY when using headsets? I have the same problem, but is caused by the jack connector (only in ICS). It randomly sends signals that the phone understand as multimedia commands. If you remove the headsets and play the music with the speaker, no problem at all.
Crap.
sometimes when i play music or some video, the audio does not come until i plug in the earphones .. i can then hear the audio in the ear phones as well as after removing the earphones ...this happens sometimes not always ..please help!
You destroyed your phone speaker? Or maybe you need to do factory data reset
I have the same problem, but its not too frequent. I think its hardware since It still happens after I fxzed/restored. But I don't remember it happening on gb, so I'm not sure...

same here, i think it's a rom related issue, not hw one, it's like if software forget to made the change from headphone to speaker, it happens to me when i start some video file and quickly remove headphone
Sent from the gray stuff inside my skull
Same here in ics. Had to go exit the video and go to home, press volume up and hear the beep. Then audio was ok.
Do you guys have screen touch enabled? I didn't have them activated when this happened.
Ditto. I havent tried this yet: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix
This is a cross post from the thread I found on reddit, I take no credit for this find.
The problem for this person was "I purchased some Beyedynamic DT990 Pros (low impedance ersion; 32ohm) and there is some issue with the jack. It seems to trigger the button of me pressing the microphone button, with minimal movement. It either brings up voice command or just pauses the music, even if I just turn off the screen. If I try to increase the volume it also brings up the voice command sometimes.
Just moving the phone slowly causes the music to stop (if it doesnt already when turning the screen off.
Anyone have any solutions to this? These are good headphones, they work with my pc perfectly. I will test with my ipod aswell.
I was thinking of getting a female to male jack just to see if a different connector works. But these are audiophile headphones so the quality isn't really questionable."
and the solution was
"Download the app SoundAbout. It lets you force your phone to detect the headphones correctly. My G3 was doing the exact same thing and ever since I downloaded SoundAbout around a week or so ago everything has been working fine." "What I do is put the headphones into the jack, but not all the way until it clicks in. Just put it in enough to where the phone senses them. If the phone senses them as a headset, remove the headphones (not necessary to take them completely out, just off of the sensor inside the headphone jack) and try again. Once it detects them as regular headphones you can click them in like normal."
Sorry for the poor formatting, and unable to link the reddit thread because my account lacks posts but I found this extremely helpful and hope everyone with this issue does too.

Thread is LG G3 can't deal with proper headphones-
Thanks man this solution was a breath of fresh air! Only issue is I still get pops between songs, if you don't can you please tell me which settings you're using? One more thing, you'd help alot of people if you were to share it in the non-AT&T LG G3 sub-forum... Specifically, this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/aux-cable-problem-t2802719. If you could post there or make a new thread that would be amazing... Thanks again man.

The settings I use is the default ones, but I heard setting Media Audio to "Wired Speakers" fixes the issue too, however it disables you from playing music out of your phone speakers so what I do is. Set Media Audio on "Let App Decide" then created a widget on my homescreen for SoundAbout and just toggle it on before I plug in headphones.
Hopefully LG will fix it sooner or later. Kinda lame to have to use an extra app for something that should just work. That's why those apple guys make fun of us android guys. Thanks for the tip.
I have oneplus one i opened it just out of curiosity and i broke(scrapped off) 3 diod from main chip-set placed just above mic flex cable connection slot. My mic stopped working. while recording video i get beep sound + my sound but while calling i only get beep sound. I dont think hardware repair is possible so i was wondering if there is any software way to make other mics as primary (any specific ROM that offers this or any other manual coding method)?

An edited XML file could work.. I'll try to find it, there are threads discussing similar topics, but haven't seen this exact scenario..

I'm looking at my theory.. The threads are in conjunction to low mic volume, but if you alter the path, you may be able to change the input source..
I'm thinking to make the speaker mic the new main mic..
This is mixer_paths.XML in /system /ect

So what we need to do is
- deactivate main mic
- take input from other mic
- make it primary
any other point i am missing?

My phone isn't broken, so I can't say as to which mic is working instead of another.. Don't worry though, you won't brick your phone by rooting, nor this mod..

You can always rub your finger over the mic. If the noise is low, it`s not that mic that is being used.

nice thought
How did the script run???
I have the same exact problem. My HTC One main mic has been damaged, whenever Im on call the other end only gets the static noise but can hear clearly in loudspeaker mode (ie from my secondary mic), is there a way to disable the primary mic and make the secondary mic as primary ??
Hey I think this problem came after updating to official pie.
The problem is that if I play music on Spotify using a Bluetooth speaker the volume sometimes lowers itself then goes back to the normal volume, then lowers itself again, and it keeps doing that. I have tried 2 different Bluetooth speakers and same problem on both of them. This doesn't happen to my friends phone on of the speakers which is his. Does anyone else have this problem ask as well? It's have you fixed it? Headphone volume is working properly, it's only the Bluetooth.
I think the problem was that I had the volume slider on my phone at Max and only used the buttons on the speaker device to adjust the volume. Having the slider at about 50% I now don't have that problem, for now at least. It was the low bassy parts of songs that most often got it's volume lowered for bit.
You're not crazy! It happened to me and drove me crazy. I think it was an issue with Spotify although I'm not sure but it's gone for me now as far as I can tell..
Finally someone else also. I posted about this one other time but nobody came across. But I guess V4A helped in it, I'm not sure though.

Drove me crazy as well, I did a factory reset. However, the problem got worse, the maximum volume of all my bluetooth devices was extremely low.
I finally fixed the problem by disabling the "Disable absolute volume" in the developer option menu.
Love the oneplus phones, (started at the one), but the audio especially over bluetooth really bothers me...

My first OnePlus phone was also the One. And upgrading to the 6 best decision ever still. But yeah the Bluetooth problem needs to be fixed :/ I tried the disable absolute volume to a while ago but it didn't help for me with the volume going up an down by itself.
This is happening to me. I thought it was my headphones or Deezer but I've tried the headphones with more devices and it doesn't happen. Glad I'm not the only one.
I've had this same issue occur whenever I had V4A Installed. After installation and setup, it'd work just fine, then randomly this same issue occurred. Curious to see if anyone can relate
same problem here, I fixed it by using a custom rom for now
Turn off Bluetooth
Connect a Wired headset go to Audio tuner
Disable Equalizer
Disconnect your wired headset
Turn of Bluetooth again
And Valla! Problem solved.

This fix is working great. Somehow the audio tuner was conflicting with Bluetooth audio output. Although I feel the sound is now a bit flat, the annoying issue is resolved. Need to test this on 9.0.3.

After updating to 9.0.3 Oxygen OS. The issue is completely gone. We can now use audio tuner on Bluetooth headphones.
