I rooted my Inspire last week. Since rooting, voice calls have not been working. For any call I make, I will randomly get a few seconds of silence, a few seconds of very quiet sound, and a few seconds of clarity (the kind of call quality I got before rooting). Each of these "phases" will last anywhere from 3-10 seconds, and not in any order. Sometimes calls will start clear, sometimes quiet, sometimes silent.
I have tested on multiple roms including Redemption, Melchizedek, Android Revolution, and Absolution. Same problem on each. I always do clean installs from full wipes, don't use tibu and haven't installed any apps. Please any advice is appreciated- my phone is unusable until this is fixed.

(DO NOT RENAME)
Here is the stock rooted gingerbread rom and radio for the inspire. Just place in root of sd card power phone up with volume down and power button at same time (hboot). Will ask if you want to install volume up for yes and let it do its thing then reboot. See if your issue persist with stock rooted rom.
IF IT DOES:
You may want to unroot your phone with the ace hack kit and see if the issue persist, If it does then its a hardware issue and you can replace with warranty (if you still have one). Being the issue is happening with several roms most likely its not the rom.

Does your voice continue transmitting when you are talking, ie does the other person hear you cut out or is it just the audio you get from the call. Test by using a headset with the phone or enabling speaker phone. Almost is sounding like a bad internal connection to the handset speaker, but i dunno without holding it.
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

My girlfriend's one s started doing this today. Absolutely no sound. She can make phone calls no problem but ringtones, music, videos, etc. no sound.

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)

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.
My Pixel has been acting up past many days. the microphone has stopped working completely. Strangely, even the video recording records no audio as well. (isnt the there supposed to be a different microphone to record audio for the videos).
here is what all ive tried.
Factory reset.
flashing factory image.
flashing custom ROM.
booting into safe mode.
So after trying all the software related tasks, it still failed. it would work after a couple of restarts for sometime and then goes back to not recording audio at all. I would sometimes get a message " Process system is not responding" after which the phone would go into restart by itself.
I gave it to the Google repair guys they said they replaced the microphone strip, after which it still it didnot solve the problem. it seemed strange because they were supposed to replace the charging port PCB from what I've read online.
To make it worse, the speaker also intermittently stops working at times and only works after a couple of restarts.
Can you someone PLEASE help me on this?! google support has been absolutely pathetic on this!
Sounds like the audio codec manufacturing defect too me
so replacing the Charging port PCB would help?
Damn Google, I am also the one who suffered from this. finally got fixed by replacing something on the mainboard, probably the Qualcomm WCD9335.
Just recently upgraded to the new Oxygen OS version 11 (beta) last night. Now all my phone calls are coming over with both speakers working. What's weird is if I choose speaker, the bottom speaker gets louder and the earpiece speaker is off. Yet when I turn speakerphone off, it will still come out the earpiece and bottom firing speaker. Any way to change this? I looked in the setting for over 1/2 hour and nothing. I've all rebooted the phone several times.
Don't want everyone hearing all my phone calls, lol.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Same. Upgraded with latest Beta OTA, and having this exact problem. Someone suggested disabling "Phone Calls" in bluetooth settings for my smartwacth. That did not fix it. I really do not want to start over from scratch right now.
Ugh same here, ever since beta 1. I wish there was a solution other than hoping the next beta fixes it, whenever that may be
