[Q] Sound does not work after permaroot? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I've been trying to search around for a way to fix my phone and I have not been able to. I permanently rooted my mytouch 4g with cyanogen 7. Everything was fine except I realized today that none of my sound works. I have music on my phone and it will play if I set it as a ringtone but it wont play in any of the music players I have tried and sound on the internet does not work either.. such as youtube. I've tried hooking up headphones and that does not work as well. Can anyone help? I'm new to rooting phones and may need a noob version of how to fix it. Thank you!

First try rebooting. If that doesn't work I'd wipe the phone completely, and then re-flash CM7 and Gapps.

[Q] Unplugging Headphones causes music to play?

I posted this problem on the CM forums as well, but thought there may be some more opinions on the subject here on XDA.
I don't know if other people with Mytouch 1.2 phones are having this issue, but every time i unplug my headphone from the jack, either the Google Listen app or the Music app will turn on and play the last item i was listening to. This happens even if i try to use a task killer to force close both. they always open back up and start playing again. this has happened on CM6.0.0-DS, CM5.0.8, Chromatic 4.5, and a couple other ROMs i've tried.
Is there something i can do to make this apps stay closed when I'm not using them? i already got rid of Listen, but i like listening to my music and dont want to have to uninstall the music app...
Open music and hit menu to get to settings. What all do you have checked there?

Same thing happens to me on CM and Chromatic.

I guess since Chromatic is a skinned CM5.0.8, the problem would persist, but if its happening with every ROM, my only thought is that it might be the headphone jack itself not working quite right with the ROMs. i know CM6 is supposed to work with the Dream and original Magic. neither of which have a headphone jack. but thats as far as ive gotten in my thinking since i cant code or troubleshoot...

thanks for the infinite wisdom. I've tried using various ROMs. at the moment, there really aren't any MT3G 1.2 ROMs that aren't CM due to the phone's weird radio/board configuration.
I've got the myTouch with the headphone Jack and the only time I run into that problem is if I get a call while listening to music with headphones and unplug them to answer. But even then the music doesn't start playing until I end the call. Try using Advanced Task Killer or going to applications from the settings menu and force stopping the music app.

It looks like the problems are caused by Music Mod. I've tried Mort Player and the HTC Sense player and music doesn't play when I unplug headphones.

Try this ROM with the 32A kernel posted in Cyan's CM6 thread.

Speaker Blown?

I have a CDMA Hero and it's rooted and running aospcm7 gingerbread rom. Before flashing a rom I always wipe data, cache, etc and they always start up fine. Yesterday I was listening to music and it just stopped making noise. Yes, I know you should adjust the min/max cpu speed so it doesn't start skipping. But this time it just stopped making noise completely. Music doesn't play, no volume from videos, ringtones, etc. Don't know if it is a system issue or hardware. Everything else works fine except for that, even the dial tones work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this or what the problem could be?
Thanks
That's a great question. Have you tried to reinstall the Rom?

Yup, switched to two different roms. But after much research on hero problems, it seems a blown speaker is common? If that is just the deal I'll just bring it to the sprint store to replace. And should I flash back to a stock rom?
Thanks for the quick reply

Yes it is fairly common, and most Sprint repair centers have the part in stock. Takes 15 minutes to replace, and in my case, they did not even have to do a factory reset (lol, not that I cared, as there was no data to wipe!) I RUU'd just before I drove to Sprint and had my laptop with adb in the truck and a nandroid on my sdcard. However, for me, sound did not just stop abruptly, it just rapidly degraded in quality.
In my opinion, rerooting and restoring a nandroid takes just minutes, and eliminates any chance of Sprint denying you service. Also, running the RUU will confirm that the issue is hardware related, if you have any doubt. That's your call though, most people say that Sprint did not care that they were rooted.

When you say that the dial tone works, are you saying with the speaker on the back? Like speaker phone? And does music work with headphones? It is quite common for the speaker in the back to blow. I've heard that since hardware and completely not related to softwate, you don't need to go back to stock rom. Strongly suggest you do though. They may make a note that you have voided your warranty. And that is no bueno.

Thanks for the help and info guys. It was weird because my nephew was listening to music on my phone with headphones, good thing that wasn't broken too, but then it started to play through the speaker for a bit. So I am guessing it is just a hardware problem. And never mind about the dial tones, guess the speaker was fuzzing in and out. But I will go into the Sprint store and let you all know how it goes.
Thanks again
Took it into a Sprint store earlier and everything is fine and working. Didn't have time to flash to a stock rom, but it didn't seem like they minded. They just replaced the speaker and called it to see if it worked. Thanks for the advice guys

Issue with apps after root

Hi all, I rooted my dell streak last night with superoneclick, it worked fine after a bit of messing around, but ever since if I d/l an app from the market or elsewhere, itll d/l but hangs on installing. Ive searched but to no avail, not much on google either. Is this a common issue? Ive tried reboots and clearong market cache, but even have the same issue when Installing from sdcard. Any thoughts? Cheers for any replies. Sanders
Also, just tried to play some music, loudspeaker aint working??
rooting shouldn't be causing an issue here as far as I know, I take it you are running stock rom? Do your headphones still work? Sounds like you may have bigger problems though unfortunately. You can always try unrooting to see if the problems go away or do a dell factory reset...
Funnily enough, speakers working fine now. Still no apps installing though, yes im on dells 2.2. Ill try unrooting.
Thanks

[Q] Skype question- Transformer TF101

I have a Transformer TF-101 with bone stock ICS on it. When I go into skype, I get video and sound from the other end, but have no volume control (which happens to be full blast), and the other person gets picture but no sound. I am wondering if anyone knows a fix for this or if I root and install a new ROM on it if that will help or fix the issue? I have tried restarting, muting, bluetooth headset, to no avail.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Where do I wipe the data? What rom would you suggest I try? I have rooted my phone but not my tablet. Im guessing its basically the same but just havent ever tried it on my transformer.

Has this happen to any one?

So this is like my third week with my phone, i have never dropped it. Today all of a sudden my front speaker just stopped working just like that. I call people and no one can hear me, nor can i hear them.
What could be wrong?

If no one can hear you then your microphone has issues too. So either two pieces of hardware just randomly failed when you did nothing to the phone or something else is up. Does speaker phone work on a phone call? Are the voice features working on your phone, voice to text, voice search, etc.?

Well that's good it doesn't seem to be a hardware issue. Are you stock? Did you install any new app recently that interacts with the phone app, voip, etc? Here are some thing you can try, if the first doesn't work, try the second, and if that doesn't work the third.
- double check your phone app settings/rom settings and reboot
- Clear phone app data and cache in settings/apps and reboot(you'll lose your call log)
- wipe cache, dalvik cache and reflash whatever rom you're running

im on a stock rom, the only app i know i installed was beats + louder, i was hearing music today all day.
Then when i went to make a call this happened, already did a factory reset.
is there a way to like odin to start fresh?
You can do a full wipe and flash the factory image as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010312
I'm surprised the factory reset didn't fix it though.

It's your sim operator's fault.
Try calling your mobile operator,and ask for a replacement sim.

RMA it bro ...it's a dead bird
I have the same exact issue. The second I powered on the phone when I got it it made this crackling sound, like static. Notifications, calls, and music would go from fine to crackling. Then one day while listening to music it made this crackling sound ( I describe it as rice crispies popping, but way louder) then this static sound, then pop! No calls, no notifications, no music, no nothing. Rma'd on the 1st and I'm still waiting.
