Went to a gig last night, tried to record some of the songs, got back today and none of them have any sound at all on the videos, anyone have any ideas why this could be
Did you play the videos on the phone or on a PC ?
I sometimes get a very low sound level on the PC while the sound is normal on the phone, depending on the phone used to capture the video and the software to play it back.
There have been a couple of reports of the same problem on a German Android forum. They said the for the last few weeks theyve been having trouble with recordings of all sorts, while speaking on the phone still works. After a restart it's all back to normal for some time but then the problem returns at some point. Sounds to me as if either an app or system update contains a bug of some sort...
have the same problem for about 3 weeks.
even with the C72 now no improvement.
very annoying the whole
In there forum I mentioned someone said according to Oppo Google Assistant is the culprit, it somehow blocks the microphone which is also why the OK Google command still works while sound recording does not. Try deleting the Google App's data and cache and then it should be gone. Should it be back after a while then the app will probably have to be fixed by Google, only way around this in this case probably is deactivating the assistant until the issue's been fixed.

I bought two Charges last week, one for me and one for the wife. Both of us have been having similar issues with music and/or ringtones randomly not playing on our phones. My wife has missed several calls because the ringtone that she downloaded from Zedge mysteriously stopped working, so the phone acted as if it were on silent mode. I noticed several instances where I can't listen to music on my phone due to a "Error playing the requested track" error within the Google Music app. At first, I thought my problem was due to the fact that I was trying to stream music that I've uploaded, but I was given the same error when I attempted to listen to music stored directly on the SD card.
Thinking that my problem was due to some weird issue with the Google Music app, I tried to play the music on my SD card from the built-in Music Player app and I was quickly prompted with an unsupported file type error. Rebooting both our phones seems to fix the problem, but I've had to do this at least two to three times on my phone, and once on my wife's. It seems that the problem always comes creeping back without warning.
Neither of our phones are rooted, and nothing else has been done to the phone that I can think of that would cause this issue.
In short, music/ringtones/etc. will randomly stop playing regardless of their source (SD card, downloaded, stream). Since the problem is on both of our phones, I'm guessing that this is a common issue on all Droid Charges.
Has anybody else experienced this issue? What are your recommendations on fixing it? Should I just take the phones back to Best Buy and get replacements?
=Edit=
Okay...something is definitely up. I just went to watch a video on the YouTube app, and saw no video. I tried other videos and got the same result. Sure enough, I tried to listen to some music and was given the above mentioned error. What the hell?
I would take them back to Best Buy. Ive never heard of this problem. And if youtube is not playing then there seems to be and underlying problem.
I was having this same problem every so often, typically after having the phone on for a few days without turning it off. I am rooted an running a custom ROM so I thought it might have something to do with that, but obviously that is not the case. I turn my phone off whenever I charge it at night and have not had the problem since doing that. Long story short, I would return the phone if you can, but just turning the phone off and then back on (not rebooting) has fixed the problem for me every time.
Try uninstalling the official twitter app if you have it, reboot, and try again. That usually solves that.

I have a strange audio-related issue on my Droid Charge.
This doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, I can't seem to track down the cause. When these problems happen, they tend to all happen at the same time as far as I can tell.
I have two custom tones I use, one for the phone ringtone and one for my text message notification. They work just fine, but suddenly and without warning they will stop working. So if my phone rings, it is just totally silent. If I go in to the settings to select a ringtone and choose my custom one, it is dead silent. If I choose any of the other ones that are on my phone, they play with no problem.
I have google voice as my voice mail provider. Sometimes when I go to check my voicemail, I get an error message that says "failed to download recording" See image here: i.imgur.com/IeXNL.jpg sorry you'll have to copy & paste into your address bar - since I'm a new user I can't post links.
When I go to play music, I'll sometimes get the error that says "Error playing the requested track" See image here: i.imgur.com/JjXoG.jpg sorry you'll have to copy & paste into your address bar - since I'm a new user I can't post links.
And this happens with every song in my library (not that i've tested them ALL, but just randomly picking songs out of my list they will all fail in the same way.)
I've noticed that some audio will still work - for example, the sounds in the game "Word With Friends" still works. The sound in the game "FieldRunners" still works. However, the sound in "Angry Birds" does NOT. Also, My email notification (which is NOT a custom sound) still comes through no problem.
If I reboot my phone, everything works just fine right up until it decides to fail again - which could be ANY time - I've had it work fine for a few days before.
I had done some searching on these problems, but didn't really find many related posts (here & general google searching). I found one thread where people were talking about downloading and using SDrescan and it fixed their problems. I did that and it does not help.
I really hate missing calls because I can't hear them. (Fortunately I haven't missed too many.) Then when I do check, I can't hear the voice mail message the caller left from google voice (unless I go to the web interface - then it will play through Moboplayer, but not through the Music app)
I have Rooted and ROMmed my phone, but just FYI, I did have the problem with the ring tones when everything was stock (I just got the phone on July 2). I didn't even set up google voice mail or put music on my phone before I had rooted it. I am using the GummyCharged ROM (v1.9).
Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? Thank you - and let me know if any more information is needed to help diagnose this.
EDIT: I also just noticed that if I launch the amazon MP3 store, I cannot listen to any samples - there's no error message - the sample just never plays. The Amazon mp3 store player will also not successfully play any of my music that is stored locally - it just says "error playing song". I also have 2 songs stored in the amazon cloud - it will not play those, either and it gives the same message "error playing song."

Hi all,
First excuse me if this is not the good forum for this thread, I'm new to this website.
I have a big problem with my Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
It doesn't play any video or music. Not only in a specific app but in every app I tried.
I tried the youtube app, the stock music app, shuttle music player which I usually use, but it also doesn't work when I go to youtube, dailymotion or any video site with the chrome browser. Videos in my facebook news feed won't play too.
When I try to watch a video or listen to music or simply launch an app like youtube for example, the phone becomes so slow that I must close the app. If I manage to click on a video, it just won't start. Generaly the app crash or the phone shut down or restart.
With the vlc app I can see the video but there is no sound.
It really starts to piss me off, I don't understand what's the problem.
Maybe it a software problem, I thought I could do a hard reset.
But it could also be a hardware problem, specifically something in relation with the speaker or the sound system, because yesterday my phone made strange noises and three days ago it fell on the ground.
Any help is welcome. Thank you for everything in advance.
Hi!
The easiest way to solve the following:
1. hard reset.
2. It did not help, then reflash the firmware on the stock, or better service firmware.
3. It did not help, then contact the service, as it is likely unfortunately hard problem.
Sorry for my english, good luck!
Hello, thanks for your help.
I reset the phone and the problem is still here.
But I noticed something interesting.
When I reboot the phone, it works for a while before the problem come back.
But maybe it's just a coincidence, because this morning the speaker made strange noises right before the problem came back. So I'm more and more covinced that it's a hardware issue.
So I think i will take the phone to a repair storé if thé problem doesn't go away by itself.
It's my pleasure.
But if you reflash the device previously, you would advise to try to flash ... Although, if you can carry in service, it is better there.
since last three days my new pixel2 get 6 times rebooted with out any notice.some times WhatsApp audio not playing and it get crashed and speakers sound is shifts while changing YouTube video quality.
is this software problem or device problem???

Do a factory reset
Same issue
whenever i want to play an audio file on whatsapp, the app goes crazy and it crashes, the audio continues to play while the phone becomes unresponsive .. i need to turn the phone off in order to get back the phone into a stable situation .. Please someone just let us know what the issue is and how to solve it??
I tried factory reset, it didn't work
There is an issue with the phone spontaneously rebooting in areas with low LTE reception. Fix has been announced by Google, I wonder if it will be included in the final 8.1 release?
Not gonna link the announcement, google yourself
FYI, seems to be solved with 8.1. Had an uptime of 345 hours days when I rebooted today for another reason.
Still have that problem with stock, unrooted, final 8.1 and after a factory reset and fresh install of apps. It's very annoying.
Hi,
I've got a problem. Suddenly a couple of apps won't recognize any sound when using the microphone, e.g. WhatsApp. When I want to record a WhatsApp voice message the app does not record any sound. The sent message is completely silent. Strangely it does work when the screen recorder is running, presumably because the microphone is activated by the recorder. Has anybody an idea why that could happen? It worked till a couple of days ago.
I am on the current Android 12 Version on the latest patch (01.05.).
Thanks!
This is a guess. WhatsApp may have lost the "Allow Use Microphone" permission.
Newer versions of Android can revoke permissions if it wants.
Usually in Settings there is an App Permissions option. Or, long-click the icon and press the "I" for information. You may be able to view/set permissions from there.
This is only a guess - where I would look first.
Sorry, I forgot to mention, that it does have the permission to use the microphone.
WhatsApp Calls, Video recording, ... do work. The problem only occures with voice messages.
As I said, WhatsApp isn't the only App that does not work, there are a couple more, that all the sudden so not recognize the microphone anymore.
I had similar problem with my zflip 3 . I sugest you to make a diagnostic with the samsung members aplication. My secundary microphone was broken , so I had to replace the charging port card (sub pba) .
I don't have a solution but this exact thing, has just happened to me today too! You are the first person I've found with the same problem! Have you heard anything yet? Or had any luck? I've gone as far as to do a full factory reset and still nothing.
Were you able to fix it?
I'm also on Android 12.

Nope still broken. Samsung have offered to look at it under warranty but would need it for 2 weeks so I'm waiting until that's viable!
