Recently, I encountered a problem in my trinity. For unknown reason, I cannot play audio through the phone speaker after bootup.
1) When I power on the phone, WM startup sound play fine.
2) However, after bootup, no sound can be played thru phone's speaker (music, alert etc)
3) Audio can be played/heard thru the earphone.
4) Flashed to several cooked and official rom, and all exhibit the same problem.
5) Yesterday, by chance, I discovered that i can managed to play through the speaker when connected to PC/charger.
It seems like a battery problem, but the present battery is still good, providing >2days of usage. Need advice to confirm this, before I proceed to get a replacement.
Thank in advance.

So the bluetooth ROM leak issue is definitely fixed. I can reboot the phone and it is still paired with my car, and I am able to make & receive calls perfectly.
However, when I try to play music or podcasts via the bluetooth speakers, absolutely nothing is heard. The music app/podcast player (BeyondPod) both show that they are playing, but nothing is heard. When I turn bluetooth off, both apps play their respective files perfectly through the phone speaker.
Whats REALLY weird is that when trying to play through bluetooth, they both are playing super fast i.e. for every second that passes in reality, the player says that it has played about 4 seconds (almost like its in fast forward).
Although its great that bluetooth can now pair perfectly and stay paired, Im now completely unable to play any media.
Would like to know if anyone else is experiencing this and/or has any ideas.
This is the ONLY issue I now have with the Hero and Im determined to get it sorted...
Thanks for all the help/comments

I have two CDMA Heros in my household, one rooted and one not. The unrooted phone went through the OTA update without problem and it played music over bluetooth speakers without any problem, just as it did before the OTA update.
I think it's an app setting of some sort. Some apps allow you to turn BT audio on and off. Try another app, like ACast or something.

Fresh ROM Bluetooth Issue Confirmed - Prevents Media Being played throgh B/T Speakers
OK, so Ive just confirmed that the Fresh 0.4 ROM has an issue with playing media through bluetooth speakers, and Sprint/HTC are 100% NOT responsible for it.
Originally, I restored back to my original Sprint ROM, updated to Fresh 0.4, and all worked perfectly; except for the fact that I was unable to play any media whatsoever through bluetooth speakers (making and receiving phone calls worked fine and all bluetooth ROM leak issues were fixed). What was weird was that the music app and podcast app i was using (BeyondPod) showed that they were playing, but they looked as if they were playing in fast forward i.e. for every second that past, 4 seconds of the song/podcast were played according to the app. NB: The phone and the speakers showed that the link was established perfectly (for whatever thats worth)
I then decided to go back to when I first got the Hero i.e. use the Sprint RUU to unroot and got back to original ROM. Then did the OTA MR.
Playing media through the speakers worked 100% perfectly.
So bottom line, something has been changed/removed in the Fresh ROM that messes up media via bluetooth.
I havent come across anyone else talking about this, but any additional info would be great.
All the best.
I have done a fresh clean (started with Sprint RUU) to a fresh 0.4 update (not from modaco) and i also have this issue. I also tried the above check and i got the same results. Please if you have this issue, contact the makers of fresh rom and let them know of the issue if they do not already know.
Hello there kind geniuses on XDA forum I have a challenge here that only you can solve!!
I'm an android lover who consider himself an "advanced user" and thank to your forum guides and my friend Google i always being able to solve any problem with my phone... Until now!!!
I'm stuck with this ABSURD problem which I couldn't find a solution!!
My phone is a Galaxy S4 i9505.
Few days ago I went to sleep with my phone working flawlessly and in the morning I noticed I couldn't hear any sound apart from the startup sound and I had a lot of random freeze and reboots.
Since then, my dear geniuses, I've tried EVERYTHING I could think of but with no success on fully solve the problem. :crying:
This is ALL I've tried so far:
-Insert the headphones (no sound comes out the headphones)
-connect bluetooth headphones (any sound works perfectly out the bluetooth headphones)
-Start the phone with/without headphones and with/without external SDcard
-Wipe EVERYTHING (data, system internal and external SD)
-try 2 different custom roms (omega v40 and S4 Google edition)
-install viper4android app and drivers
-flash the original stock rom/bootloader with Odin
-flash the original stock rom/bootloader plus the pit file with the options "auto-reboot" "F.Reset time" re-partition" and "nand-erase-all" all enabled
No 100% success... :'( :crying:
Right now I'm at this point:
I have the Google edition rom "danvdh-GE-4.4.2-02182014-INT" obviously rooted with last busy box.
-I have less freeze and reboots but still happens randomly
-I can hear all the sounds through the Bluetooth headphones if I connect them
-I can hear the startup sound
-When I call or receive a call I can hear from the speaker, the loudspeaker and the headphones
-No other sound from any music player, no ringtone, no dial-pad tones, no touch sounds, no screen lock sound
-Sometimes, very rarely and completely random, I can hear some sound but with a bit of delay
-When I try to watch any video (online or offline) they are very slowed down unless I watch them with VLC player
-The phone take pictures and videos regularly.
WHAT IS GOING ON?!?!
I thought about being a hardware problem but WHY I can hear the startup and the in-calls sounds??
And WHY through the Bluetooth headphones I can hear everything loud and clear?!?
Sorry guys for the Essay and PLEASE help me... I really have no more ideas... It just DOESN'T MAKE SENSE and it's making me crazy!! :silly:
I have a Kenwood excelon DDX793 radio with BT audio and phone. Two problems:
- I experience stuttering while playing music, and sometimes it's so bad that the music app crashes.
- I can't hear anyone nor can they hear me when I make or receive a phone call. It does show an incoming call and I can make an outgoing call from the radio, but anything audio related, forget it. If I do talk loudly next to the microphone, while listening to my land line phone, I do hear a very low pitched sound. Picture and old Walkman cassette player running out of batteries.
I've searched on the net, but I couldn't find anything really useful, or I might be using the wrong wording.
It's a Note 3 SM-N900W8, factory unlocked. I did not try the stock ROM , as I went straight to rooting it and using a custom ROM. I've tried two stable ROMs, but both do the exact same thing. Could I be missing out on a firmware update?
I've tried safe mode, factory resets, different ROMs, as mentioned above, but no changes. I can live with a bit of stutter, but if I can't hear the other individual at the other end, that's a huge problem.
Any help would be appreciated.
Got it fixed. Used a stock Lollipop ROM and it resolved the BT issues. Now it's my hot keys that don't work. Oh this is rich...
hey there,
I use speakerphone a lot while talking on the phone and had no problem with it.
one day it stopped producing the loud volume it used to and it's REALLY LOW since then. As if it's not on speaker at all.
there's NO problem with the volume while playing/watching media; NO problem while talking on the phone with my ear near the phone or with an ear piece. ONLY WHILE IT'S ON SPEAKER.
1- it's NOT connected to any update (it started on 7.0 and yesterday i updated to 7.1.1 hoping it will help, but nothing has changed)
2- my 6P in not rooted
3- it has stock rom
4- MAYBE it's related to an app i installed called "DRUPE" which affects the phone, but it didn't start immediately and didn't get fixed after remiving this app, so i can't be sure.
5- i've tried SAFE MODE, but it didn't solve the problem
6- i've tried looking for a solution in the settings but nothing there affects the volume of the speakerphone or limits it.
7- i've wiped the cache - NOTHING
the fact that the speaker works fine during media playing shows me that it's not a hardware problem, but YOU ARE THE EXPERTS' so please help me.
Hi,
my audio playback crashes reproducibly after seconds to minutes when i listen to music (play a video, make a call..) with any -> wired <- headset or headphones connected.
After that i have to reboot the phone to get audio working again; just unplugging headphones leaves the device also silent until next reboot.
The crash affects incoming call ringing, calls, anything related to audio.
I don't now when it started, must have been during winter time because Bluetooth audio playback works with no problems.
I'm unrooted and on stock rom. The OTA update to nougat did not solve the problem, either, as well as deleting cache.
Motorola support told me to reset phone before further support steps will be considered. I did not yet reset the whole phone, because i need it during traveling..
If anyone knows the problem, maybe related to an app,... let me know

Same thing here , stock or custom ROMs.FM radio works good but that's about it.
