Hello,
I have bought an HTC Cruise one week ago. I've used the sim unlocker, and installed the 3LIT3_VI_Full. Everything worked fined.
Unfortunately I started experiencing an extremely annoying problem with the sound. After several hours with the Cruise in standby - especially from the night to the morning -, the sounds simply disappear from the phone. No alarms, no ringtones, and even no music player sounds. Simply, there is no sound at all, and I can't find an option to turn it on again. I have to reboot the phone and then all comes back to normal for some hours.
This is extremely annoying, especially because I've missed some work calls due to no sound.
Is this a normal problem? Is there any solution? Is it hardware - and I need to replace the Cruise -, or software - and I need to install some updated ROM/tool ?
Thank you!
I have installed the Radio_1.59.44.02, and it seems the problem was solved. I need two more nights to confirm, but at least after a night in standby, I had sound on the morning.
Thanks.
Radio_1.59.44.02 didn't solved the problem. It seems it's more stable, but the sound problem still occurs. Some seconds ago I have updated to Polaris_Radio_1.65.30.09 and will try to change to Touch Navia V3.1 with Video Call .
After some days of testing, I'll report my experience (if I still have sound problems or not with this configuration).
This morning I woke up and the screen of my One S was on. When I checked why it was on I've seen that my alarm went off but without any sound.
I've checked my settings if I put my phone on silent mode but it wasn't. So I checked if I can play music, ringtones, videos etc. but still no sound.
I can talk on the phone no problem but the speakers for music, ringtones, notifications etc, just won't work.
I tried a factory reset and installed my custom rom again without any luck...
Any ideas how to fix this or do I have to send my phone in to get it fixed?
haven't had this happen, but did you try fix permissions from recovery
otherwise, if no one else has a solution you could try a nandroid restore
or, better--wipe all including System and reload fresh. Factory Reset won't clear System
or, just wipe System and reflash rom, I don't think data, which Factory reset wipes, would be the issue. not sure

Mine did the same thing, if you press the lower part together you will hear it come back for a bit and then stop again. A wire has come loose inside is my guess, if you are a heavy data user and heated it up maybe? But I called tmob and got a replacement phone sent to me, but I am still upset about it since I only got this phone in april and I already broke it.
Same thing happening to me. I noticed that when I'm in a call though and I play music. The sound works but when I try to play any audio without being in a call it will not work

I tried to press the lower part together, didn't work though. I have not used data it was the first time I turned the device on ans boom no sound;(
I am not quite sure whether its hard or software related because you cam hear sound while in call but it got broken while my device was turned off being in a package....
Is there a way to route the sounds throughout the upper speaker?
Possible solution
Hi guys, my girfriend has an Htc One S and suddently this night the phone started to sound at verry low volume when she received a phone call. After a close inspection i realized that the sound didn't come from the lower speaker but from the ear (upper) speaker. Strange,no? I've tried the settings, reseting the phone ,but nothing... A after a while i've tried one last thing that actualy worked and spare us from a trip to the service. You have to place a call on the One S , answer that call., turn the speaker on and off again in the call then close the call. And the magic happens. Your sound is back again in the lower speaker(the loud speaker). All this indicates that it's a software problem. It's the first phone that i've heard reproducing the ringtone or player sound in the ear speaker. Hope this helps all you out there with a sound problem. Cris

If ur phone is S3 and on JB, it is a bug that sometimes sound starts coming from earpiece (front speakers) instead of rear speakers. Check this thread

Hi there!
Iam having a strange problem with all sense roms viper 2.2, trickdroid, etc. and a can't fix it and i really need some help!
the sound of the phone stops working, i have the original viper kernel, never changed, the sound does not work every where!!! the mp3 player, games, notification, and the keyboard tones when dialing a number... and this time it only took about 2h after a new clean install of the rom..... ? ? ? (iam lost)
i don'd now why it appends, but when it does, i have do restore a back up that works or re install the rom.
this as happened before, and i made a clean install i have tried wipe the phone app, wipe the caches, fix permissions,.....
please does some one have a clue?
EDIT 1:
what can i do? i always used venom rom, and all ok, now since my phone came form htc support, because of the home button problem (they changed the screen, battery and the chassis, and they fixed)
now i cant use the venom i have done 3 clean install and nothing(( ..... iam going to try the TrickDroid_9.1.0 and see, if it happens again iam screed
EDIT 2:
i notice that if i clean caches and install the bulletproof kernel it stays ok, for about 5m, then the sound goes way... ?!? there must be something that is interfering with the sound services?
just found out in other foruns, that if you press volume all down, and them volume up, the sound starts working again, but some minutes later, the same no sound
http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc...d-speaker.html now iam going to remove every app and see if theres one making the problem ... it will take some time . if anyone as a clue please help!
just removed all apps , the problem precisest.... goig to try trickdroid and see what appends, does anyone have a clue!?!?!??!
EDIT 3:
i tried the stock kernel and the bulletproff, removed all apps, tried 4 clean viperone s installs with multiples recovery's, tried a factory reset from the bootloader with the original recovery, tried with the trickdoid. and nothing works!!
what can i do please some one!?
no sound, after 5m of fresh install ? tried all roms, recovery, etc
some one please help! my problem is not with this rom, it is prefect., after-all my problem is bigger .
i have tried aosp roms and sense roms, i have tried different recovery's, and kernels, removed all apps, with all i have the problem...
a minutes after a clean install the sound suddenly stops working, especially if go to the dialer
i have to install a new rom or a restore, but +/- 5m after fresh install, the problem starts again
when i relock the booloader, with a twrp backup of the original rom untouched it shows a "security warning error" ? and wallways reboots to the bootloader
some one please!?!
Sorry for my Bad english. Maybe the connection of the speaker is not really fit. The speaker is mounting on the back bottom side and fitting with two flexible contacts. Try to press or shaking the cover when you get sound after it something in there is broking or not fit.

Mine had the same problem. I notice that the sound quality from the Rear speaker deteriorates day after day and so i took out the back cover and put it back again the sound seems working fine but on while playing music it just suddenly stopped and since then no sound at all from the speaker i even took out the back cover reinsert it again and again but to no avail. No SOUND.
wipe cache
This is a problem from flashing. If you reboot into TWRP and do wipe data once or twice (not just Dalvik and the cache, but also the .android_data), the sound will work. You could also try rebooting the phone.
I had this problem with the builds from the first week in July. I would just flash a later build (from TWRP be sure to wipe at least 3 times) then flash the latest build.

The problem I had was that I did have sound, then all of a sudden in the morning the alarm had no sound. It was random.
update
I was cheking a new speaker the loud version of eBay when I turn on the phone no sound I check everything and I see some scuff on the metal where the speaker touch the board I clean all and disconnect the battery for 20 seconds and the sound come back I hope this can help
****** also check the upper speaker my cel has alot of dust the problem its you need to tear down the phone its very simple are just are 8 screws 4 little flexes just be careful whit the camera glass hehehee.
i think when the dust block the conection whit the board this fails also the lower speaker do the same problem.
Hi there,
I was recently listening to music on my phone on the rear end speaker when the sound started to get choppy and distorted, then it just completely shut off. I checked to see if the app had just force closed but it was still going and the song was still on play. I checked the volume and it was on full. The sound has still not come back as of Sunday afternoon. I know its not software side because I recently flashed a new ROM and it still does not work. I cannot hear any system sounds either, no alarms, no ringtones etc. Anyone have any idea as to what might be the problem? Im guessing that the speaker burst, or a wire came out of place.
Extra Info:
Rom at that Time: Provision 4.1.2
Kernel: A1R Kernel Weekly #241
Rome Now: XenonHD 4.1.2
Kernel: Same kernel as above

Go back to factory https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
If it still doesn't work then it is hardware. Use your warranty or pay to fix it.
The factory image flash didnt do much I guess its just a hardware problem then. Good thing the nexus 4 comes out this week too xD It has to be a sign.
Hi,
I've got a strange problem which no amount of searching and experimentation has fixed...
Whenever I start playing audio the media volume reduces to zero / mute by itself. I can then turn it back up and all is well, until the end of that song / video at which point the problem repeats. This occurs in all my media playing apps.
This only happens when using my wired headphones that have a builtin microphone. I don't get the issue on speakers, with a non-microphone headphone / external speaker, or with a bluetooth device.
I've tried the headphones on another phone (not OPO) running the same version of cm13 nightly, and the problem doesn't occur.
So I'm fairly sure that its a software bug/setting issue, but I don't know what.
I've tried making sure all other possible audio players are not started at boot and force stopped to make sure its not some weird app/clash.
Would appreciate any suggestions!
Thanks...
+1 for that issue I thought it as due to faulty buttons .......

Glad to hear its not just me! It even does it in safe mode.
I guess the only thing to try is a different ROM...
The best thread I've found that describes this problem is:
https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/3jkilb/oneplus_one_volume_automatically_decreases_to/
Sultanxda's comments describe whats happening nicely.
So in a last and final attempt to fix this I tried some different ROMs. I tried the latest cm13 stable, sultanxda's latest and even went back to good old kitkat! But all had the same problem....
It would seem this is a hardware issue that is only getting worse. I've had instances now where the volume will mute whilst playing a song). Sometimes it mutes and then turns on Do Not Disturb!
Oh well.... time for some bluetooth headphones.
