Speaker problem - Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) Questions & Answers

Hi, this happens a lot while charging but it happens when I'm not as well.
Sometimes the speaker shut down for roughly ~1/10 of a second while playing YouTube videos. Have anyone had this problem before and fixed it?
Edit : I tried with twitch and it happens too so I guess its not a problem with YouTube. I've got the European version

[Q] YouTube HD playback problem

Hi guys, i just got my transformer and I love it but I have a little problem, HD videos in youtube app stutters!! t is not a connection problem, on my computer they play perfect, and anyway I let it load it the whole video to avoid connection problems.
The video still stutters, sometimes it plays full framerate, but the second after it is jerky!!
Anyone have the same problem?
Should I return it?
MP4 720p in video player just play fine...
PS: I also noticed i have some LCD backlight bleed problem... awwww man...
If hd flash is important it might not be the best solution.
Could wait and hope for a fix, but the tablet market is moving fast, always a risk companies will move on to the next gen product.
So far Tegra 2 + honeycomb seems not ideal, after all the hype?

Flash is not involved here, I am speaking of the official youtube app which should have no stuttering.
Anyone has the same problem??

Not got that problem. Does it still stutter for you via the browser as well?
Mine used to pause a few times when watching videos in the Youtube app but this appears to have been fixed with the latest firmware update.

Yes it does stutter even in the browser.
I will retry when I return home from work. Thanks.

No yputube app does not use flash, in fact i uninstalled FlashPlayer from tablet to be sure of that.
I have the same issue. Coming from a Xoom I noticed it almost immediately. If there is stock soon, I will go to the store and have it replaced. Otherwise I might just return it. There are things I can deal with, stuttering video is not one of them.
Better to wait for Tegra 3 devices in August ?
http://www.geek.com/articles/chips/...e-tegra-3-chip-in-tablets-by-august-20110216/
Or 4 more months after that, until 2012 and get something better! or keep waiting until 2014 and get the best one in their roadmap!

Actually once it can do 1080p high profile, I could care less what is coming out since it would be the complete package. A Tegra 3 device seems like it could be the one. Definitely selling my Transformer and getting a Tegra 3 tablet when it comes out.
I think the problem is related to the youtube app, i had a trip to a local store with an Iconia A500 and played with it a bit. It had the same problem, i doubt a replacement would do the trick. i suppose an OTA update with a revised version of the youtube app or some tweak should be enough.

If thats the case then I don't mind at all, but it's something that I'd like to know *officially*. It's not something that has to be fixed immediately, but I'd like to know that the issue lies with the app and not my hardware.
Edit: But, at the same time, I didn't think many other people were having the same issue.. ?
stuttering playback was an initially known issue with honeycomb. Like someone else mentioned though, the firmware seemed to resolve that issue. Might want to make sure you have the latest and greatest version.

ya mines the US version of the 20110423.. first thing I checked.
It just crummy because my buddy loved my Xoom, especially the Youtube app (hes got a relatively large presence on youtube) and when he went to watch one of his videos (G20 Battle of Toronto) it was stuttering. It's like it will be smooth for a few seconds then get choppy . The audio never skips a beat though.
Just noticed a flash update on the market. Don't know if it'll help you or not. Looks like its now out of beta or something. I didnt really read it all before i installed it. Version 10.2.156.12.
Edit: Bah the irony. Now I'm getting the stuttery video. I wasnt before.

i just did the update and its still stuttering on videos
I know i read somewhere that asus was working with google on it. Maybe they still havent completely ironed it out yet. Remember, its still early for honeycomb...
how do you set the youtube app to 720p? i only see an option for HD

[Q] Media sound somehow gets muted

Over the past week, twice I've gone to play a YouTube video or play a saved video using the video player only to realize there is no sound. The system and notification sounds can be heard but not media. I check the settings and the media sounds are muted but the system and notifications are not. This doesn't make sense. I've included a screenshot of what the settings look like. If I shutdown and power on again it's back to normal.
Has anyone else seen this issue or know the cause?
I did once last week, a reboot fixed it but I couldn't figure out what caused it or how to fix out brie that. That was the first time experiencing it for me since buying it last August.

I'm still experiencing this issue sporadically. I think it has something to do with that minor update from Samsung last week. Had no issues prior to that. I can't recall what the update was for. Having to reboot whenever this happens is irritating.
Samsung app
Anyone experiencing this issue, did you download the AllShareCast Dongle S/W Update from the Google Play Store last week?
I've only had mine for a week and have had this problem twice. It is annoying.

Had the problem once and as mentioned above, a restart sorted it. Hasn't returned.... yet
I have not downloaded the all share or whatever was asked nor did I do that Samsung update. So I can say it's got nothing to do with either of those.

I do not know what was caseing it to mute the media sound but i went to the Samsung app and updated it there as well as play store all share and dangle update and for now it looks like it may have fixed it not 100 percent sure but it is working for now. Will date if it comes back.
Update it did not fix it. But i have learned that if i go to netfilx and watch a movie it fixes it self. Anyone know whats makeing the sound mute? Is it the update are something else?

This issue seems to have something to do with Netflix. After the last occurrence, I shutdown the tablet and powered on, and media sound was okay. I just had to adjust the volume. I went a week without any issue until I used Netflix. If I open Netflix and simply browse without watching anything and then exit the app, sometimes upon exit the media sound will be muted. I'm hoping an update to Netflix or the Premium Suite update with JellyBean will correct this.
UPDATE: It looks like the Netflix app update for December 21st corrected this issue.

Agg. Google Camera. Rustling Fund

As the title suggests we (at least those who N5) had to upgrade to the camera of google. For heaven's sake in this post is not to say, you no good bad etc. .. But I want to put an attention on the video. You doing various tests from yesterday to today I noticed (unfortunately) an annoying noise in the video is that in FHD 480p. The bug or problem, call it what you want, persists in all kinds of resolution that you put. Arises especially in confined spaces, such as a room or whatever at home, standing in silence and making a normal recovery. Below I have uploaded a little video to show you Yuotube on this issue. To you a review!
Edit: obviously the video was shot in 1080p, this should sentisi more noise or background noise.

In fact, restoring an old bakup I noticed that in the old version the problem persists. As you said the bug there for months. Hopefully with the update 4.4.3 solve.

I really want someone else to give this a go and report back, I unitentionally fixed this problem by flashing a slim rom hdr+ bug fix. The file I flashed was this one http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/d...-4/10260-slim-google-camera-compatibility-fix
Maybe a strange coincidence, anyone else fancy giving it a shot?

[Q] Right speaker problem

Hi everyone!
I'm noticing after some days that there's a strange sound coming out from the right speaker, the part wich is in the right side of the tablet.. It mostly happens (and it's louder) after a tap on the screen, when touching something makes a *click* of the system ui... I always have the brightness at a more or less 65%, and the sound set to more than 50%, don't know how much exactly.. , And it happens more frequently when wifi is on. The problem is that the sound continues even when the screen is off, and there's no music playing...
Please, can sombody go to place without noises and check if that happens also to you? Just to know if this is a fault of my device or if it happens to everyone
Thanks!!
Nobody has this issue?? I've tested it again today and I can still hear that sound
I have it too and many other people as well. I have seen a thread about it few days ago on Official Shield Tablet Board...

Thanks! So it looks like a normal sound from the SoC... Is there anyway to make it sound less? I think it could broke the speaker, by being constantly "in use", without stoping..
May I ask you what firmware version you are using (did you update via OTA to 1.2.1)?

Yep, I think the tablet was in 1.1, and I received the 1.2.1 a week ago, so I updated it...

Could anyone possibly running a custom ROM confirm if this still happens? If not maybe it could mean that it can be software issue (just hoping)

On mine the sound disappears when I turn off the screen and when I am on home screen not doing anything for few seconds I can hear that speakers do turn off... But I am on software 1.0 (didn't update because no problems other than that)
So this may be software related...

I had the same issue a few times. Music stops, and if I click pause and play again, it just plays for a milisecond, and then silence again. I wanted to write here about that issue, but it happened 3-4 times in two months. Closing and opening the app which was playing sound solves the problem for me.
I've flashed a newer stock rom in odin, but the bug was still present. But that's definitely a software bug, samsung should know about it.

Did anyone find a solution for this problem, or contacted Samsung? It's very annoying, and it started happening to me very often.
