Working now. Weird! I may have a lemon with the sound.
Of course the sound has to stop working when I'm showing a fanboy how awesome it is and how much better it is then the iPad.

I'm having the same issue.
I'm using it with no issues for a while then no sound... rebooting it doesn't help.
I can plug in a head set but no speaker at all.
Sometimes emails notifications come through but that's about it.
Been on the phone waiting for google support now. Been waiting for about 30 minutes now...
This SUCKS!

Had the same problem within five hours of having it. Sound went out playing Final fantasy III. Did a factory reset, nothing. Was on hold with google play for 45 min before I gave up. Sound started working again for a while, cut out again when playing FFIII again. Would say it is the game but the factory reset didn't fix it. Sound came back on during the night while I slept, has stayed on since. Waiting to see how it goes and to find out if it is a software issue before I try to RMA it. Did sent google an email though.

I did a hard reset (held the power button down for 10 seconds) and its been fine since.

Problem is back.
It makes a sound like a record scratching then no sound. If you tap the back of the tab it tries to make sounds but fails. Must be a hardware issue.

Out from speaker when headphones connected?

When I plug in the headphones(the one's included) the output comes from the speaker AND headphnes at the same time? I might be a lil tipsy but I can't find in the menu for this....I just wanna hook up my headphones and quietly jam out. But can't!

How did you guys fix this? I tried battery pull and turned on/off but no luck. The headphones quality sounds horrible when this happens. Starting to think it's a hardware issue? Thanks for your help.

All I did was did a battery pull. Left it out for about 10 seconds, then put it back in. I must say the sound quailty is nice(headphones that were included). I came from a moment and sound was low....on here its loud

i had the same issue when i was using Btunes to listen to music. When i went back to the stock app and also doubletwist the issue went away. I thought i was going crazy when i sat my phone down and could still hear music. LOL.

I had the headphones/speaker playing today at the same time as well, it happened when I didn't push the headset in all the way and then backed it out and replugged. It probably botched the software up going in/out/in like that, probably locked the external speaker on.
Yours, on the other hand, sounds like hardware. When the cable gets wonky on my aux wire, I get severe quality issues and I can kind of imagine what you're getting at with yours. Make sure that the plug clicks all the way in, and if the problem keeps happening - hardware it is.

Bizarre clicking noise

My Zoom has started making a loud clicking noise intermittently. Not related to touching the screen. Just a loud click now and then. Almost like a static discharge. Not related to volume settings. Anyone else have this? Any ideas?

Looks like another fanboy post? A cockroach got inside during installation, you'll have to return your xoom and buy an ipad 2 ?????
The only way you'll take my Xoom is to pry it from my cold dead hands. But I'm just wondering how best to kill the cockroach!
Mine just started doing this today. I really dont want to have to exchange it for a new one at best buy, thats such a hassle!
i think it's because you are running overclocked. Minw started this after I clocked it to 1.5ghz, set it to 1.2 and no longer does this.
My Epic 4G just recently started doing this intermittently over the past week or two. I'm guessing that it is related to some app that I installed, but I haven't been able to track it down yet.
Mine was doing the same a day or two back sounded like the speakers were clicking for no reason at all, i'm running stock with no hacks or anything of the kind.
Happens to me everytime I run FPSE, doesn't go away until I restart Xoom.
I had this same issue. 2 things I have tracked it down to. Rockplayer pausing a movie. And trillian. I had to uninstall trillian as itwas driving me crazy.

Mine is not rooted and it does it at times. I have to restart the device. I wonder how many other people have this problem.

I had this happen only one time. I was using Remote Desktop from Xtralogic one night and it started making a weird clicking or electrical discharge noise. It sounded like it was coming from the speaker.
I finished my work that night on our server and turned off the Xoom. Never had it happen since.
My Xoom is rooted and overclocked to 1.4Ghz. Most of its use is Remote Desktop, ConnectBot, QuickSSHd and Kindle.

Yeh mine was doing it today, couldn't figure out what was going on. Prob just a software glitch or something causing the speakers to pop.

often happens to me after running some media players like upnpplayer
Did you force close or clear data from some media app running in the background? One or the background items tracks built in ringtones and wiping data will make it forget the factory ringtones. Maybe it's clicking because it's no longer playing a proper audio file?
You'll have to make it rebuild itself somehow if that's the case. Mine fixed itself after a reboot or two.

Random "click" noise

Every now and then, when opening an app or using the system buttons at the bottom, a very short "click" noise comes from the speaker. I have my N4 on silent/vibrate all the time and it is not an operating system noise that's meant to be there because its random. The best way to describe it is that it seems like the phone is "accidentally" starting to play a sound then stopping because its realised its in silent mode.
Anyone else getting this? Views on this problem?
(It happened again as I was typing this, so it happens through the the keyboard key presses as well)

Media Volume
Maybe you have to turn down the media volume.
I don't have a nexus 4, but I do get that random click noise on my incredible s as well, and from many different roms. I am not sure what it is, though.
Key press noise in settings turn it off may stop it the Gnex had this issue and still does

I get that click noise occasionally on my HTC HD2.
Running PACMAN 4.1.2 Jellybean at the moment.
I had this issue as well. I just turned off touch sounds and all is well.
I should note that I have keyboard sounds enabled and I do not experience the random clicking noise.
It seems to be isolated to the enabling of touch sounds, whether on vibrate or any audible volume.

I have the autofocus rattle issue as well. But I rarely if ever would shake my phone like that.
At this point I am just grateful that I got my phone, let alone got my phone earlier than projected. There are a lot of people that would love to hear the rattling of the autofocus on their N4.

Power Management
Ok... I think this is correct,
The audio chip like most other IC's are entering power saving mode milliseconds after you hear any audio so the small click is the powering up and down of the audio hardware... Many phones do this and many people don't notice it.
It's quite normal but if you have very good hearing it might bother some more then others.

It seems like a touch sound issue.
Make sure you've got touch sounds turned off by going:
Settings > Sound > Touch Sounds (disable the checkbox)

[Q] Sound Not Working

I was on my way home when my battery die. When I got home, I put on the charger and turn my Nexus 4 back on. When I used it, I realized that the sound is not working for music, games, notification, etc. I can still hear the beeping sound when I press the volume-down button though.
I didn't press anything, and I have checked my volume setting - nothing seems wrong.
I'm running the newest version of Paranoid Android on my phone.
Since I am a total noob compared to most of you, any kind of help would be soooo useful!
Thank you so much
Last time this happened to a friend, a reboot fixed the issue. Try that —if that doesn't work, report back!

I forgot to mention, I already rebooted it 2 times and it still doesn't work
Update: it turns out that the notification sound is working. However, the media sound is not. I can't also listen to anyone who calls me unless I put on speaker.
Does anybody have the same problem?

Speaker stopped working

Hi,
I've had my S4 for about 3 days now and today all of a sudden the rear speaker has stopped working. No sound comes out of it at all, including notifications, screen lock sounds, touch sounds and any other sound. I have restarted multiple times but there is still no sound. If I plug in some headphones then I can hear the sound through them, so the problem seems to be related just to the main speaker.
Please help me
Is it brand new. Can you take it back?
Are you rooted? Flash another ROM?

I wouldn't say a lot, but I do use them for an hour or two every night before I go to bed. I used them briefly for about 10 minutes earlier today but the speaker randomly stopped working a few hours after that.
I think I even heard when the speaker malfunctioned because as I touched the screen the touch sound cut out about half way through, though I thought nothing of it. Only now do I realize that there hasn't been any sound out the speaker since then.
Oh because i had that problem lots of times but its because i had headphones in while i switched the phones off or if it went dead while they were plugged in. Then when i restart the phone without them plugged in the phone still thinks there connected when there not so how i fixed it is that i plugged them in and out really fast. Its worth a try but i doubt it will work in your case

Well nothing I tried worked, so I'm guessing it was a hardware malfunction (my guess is that the speaker blew somehow).
I went back to the store today and they gave me a new S4 with no hassle. Just a little disappointed that I spent all weekend setting it up and customising it and now I have to do it all again.
Heres hoping this one lasts more than 4 days lol.
