Hi,
After getting my Samsung Epic 4G last year, I had rooted, wiped and installed Epic Experience - Version 1.2.09 [11/22] - Eclair (DI18). All was well !!
Yesterday I decided to try Epic Experience - Version 2.0.08 [03/05] - Froyo (EB13) and followed the necessary steps to change file system. I used Odin with CWD3 to do this. After installation I noticed that the youtube app would open and display videos but none of the youtube videos would play (kept getting a "this video cannot be played, touch to retry" error for any video that I tried to play. It worked fine on wifi but not on 3G. I then noticed that the Bluetooth would not turn on. Everytime I clicked on it, it would say turning on and go back to the off status after about 15 seconds.
Confused I decided to go back to wipe, go back to stock with Odin and go back to Android 2.1 - i.e. Epic Experience - Version 1.2.09 - here also faced the same issues with Bluetooth and youtube.
Went back to stock through Odin and everything is working fabulously.
Tried Epic Experience Roms v1 and v2, tried Nebula roms, tried Syndicate Rom, and finally tried Viper Rom v2 with the correct procedure and wiping between each. Noticed that with ANY custom rom I cannot get Youtube videos to play or Bluetooth to turn on. It works absolutely fine with stock Sprint Rom ONLY.
Even formatted the SD Card.
Does anyone have any suggestions ?? I am at my wits end.
Could this be linked to rooting to CWD3 ??

I've updated my Nexus 4 to latest Lolipop factory image and everything is fine, image has right MD5, flashing without errors and booted successfully.
These two days I saw some rendering issue on Lolipop, as my screenshot followed. This issue happens on stock and 3rd party apps. Do you guys have any issue like this?

Yes, I get rendering errors also. So far, it shows sometimes when reading emails where the whole message is rendered in one small line. It appears in K-9, but also blue mail. Going back/forth one email message solves it. It seems to appear at random. I tried playing with developer options like hardware rendering, but no success yet. I regret having upgraded
Volume is absolutely up, I don't have it on silent mode or priority mode only or anything, plus alarm doesn't make sound and some other things, just to clarify I'm not being dumb.
Any app that tries to produce sound crashes, like if I play a video on YouTube or in Chrome, if I open anything like AudioFX or what have you.
I think the most important thing is that this is occurring on every ROM, and I don't know what to do. I just fixed my data issue that was persistent on every ROM, but this is more important to me because I need my phone for an alarm clock among other things.
I have wiped, wiped, and wiped again. I flashed stock Touchwiz, tried older nightlies of CM12 I know were fine, tried other ROMs, etc. It doesn't make a difference, the effect is still the same no matter what.
I have tried pluggging in and unplugging headphones over and over. There isn't even an indication it's plugged in. There's also no way in hell I damaged the speaker or anything, and that wouldn't really explain crashes on YouTube and so forth anyway.
I have reset, without a charger plugged in over 10 times. Powered off and on 10 times. This was apparently a solution to a similar issue with the Nexus 5 on Lollipop. But do note that this issue isn't even restricted to Lollipop.
Please, if anyone has any ideas, even if they probably won't work, I'm pretty desperate to get this working again.
I solved it. It's caused by the NAE modem for some reason. Flashing any previous modem has working audio, and flashing NAE again breaks it again (just to verify that was the cause).
I don't know much about it, but how does the modem have any effect on audio?

Dang had I seen this earlier I would a told you exactly what you found. I had same issue going from MF9 modem to NAE. Trick is to flash MK(whatever number) boot up normally, then reboot and flash NAE modem and boot. Cheers!

I had similar problem...had tried everything and then some. Was about to flash odin that revererted everything to stock unrooted. Was going to take in to sprint. Noticed files to download mismatched mine so odin back to mk2 and had sound so moved on up to NAE and still had sound. Then on to 4.4.2 rom and NG2 and all good. Go figure...was coming on here to tell you Glad u got it.
Greetings,
The camera on my Note 3 is not working for video recording (taking pics works fine). I have switched a lot of roms and kernels on it, but I noticed the camera app would not record and, instead, show me a "Warning: Recording Error" followed by a force close and, usually, a reboot.
I decided to switch back to stock Lollipop to see if this would revert it, but it didn't work.
The phone specs and other info:
SM-9005
Currently on official Lollipop from Brazil (N9005VJUGBOD5_N9005ZTOGBOD4_ZTO from sammobile)
Stock kernel
These are the things I did to try and fix this, not in order:
1- Changed kernels
2- Changed roms (always wiping everything but internals on recovery before doing so)
3- Cleaned cache
4- Cleaned camera cache
5- Tried google camera app instead of the official camera app (it did not FC, but while it said it was recording, it would never save a video file of it)
6- Did a factory reset on the stock rom
7- Updated modem and bootloader with the files on the Aryamod thread
8- Tried removing the SD card completely
9- Tried reseating the SD card
10- Tried changing to internal card in the camera app
11- Changing recording resolution options
Last custom rom I had was the Omega Rom. First Lollipop rom I installed was the official (non leaked) Poland rom, and I did not use a pit file back then (as, according to the thread this was featured it, that file was meant only for users coming from the leaked lollipop rom).
This is the log from the camera bugging out in the Omega Rom:
http://pastebin.com/TkCA2KbT
I took a second one for precaution:
http://pastebin.com/1exMLTk3
This is not a hardware problem as it worked on KK. The problem persists on the official rom I just installed. Also, the SD card has a lot of space available, as does the internal memory.
Also, not sure if this is relevant, but most kernels give me a bootloop, exception being the Omega kernel and the Darkqueen. I also *may* have flashed by accident a rom based on Cyanogen at some point, but my memory is very fuzzy on this. I think that this wouldn't matter as I wipe everything before putting a new rom in, anyway (and if I did that, the new and now correct rom I put after that wouldn't leave any traces of this accident).
I have no idea what else to do to fix this.
I have exactly the same problem. I have a ZTO Note 3 with the same problem as well, sometimes the whole android crashes after I try to record it.
The whole problem began after I installed the Omega Rom, I used CM12.1 for quite some time and the camera record correctly. I am not sure if you managed to wipe the whole thing by using the TWRP, but once I did, I found out that it was a MTO problem, which I searched about and it was nothing major.
Did you manage to fix the problem?
Maybe install latest bootloader?
Try changing the camera app video resolution back to 1080P - there's been a number of people had problems with UHD mode.
It's quite possible that BL and Modem flash will not work unless you turn the phone off and then go into DL mode for an Odin flash - rebooting into DL mode doesn't let them flash. So maybe once you went to a ROM that had the UHD issue, you haven't fully come back to stock?

Sorry for the time taken, I flashed the Omega Rom once again using TWRP, and then I flashed the bootloader and modem recommended for such rom using Odin, but the problem still continues. And I have tried change resolutions, storage and everything possible, the problem still continues.
Funny thing is, I thought it was the back camera problem, it could take photos but it freezes during video recording. Once I tried the front camera, the same problem happens as well, it does take pictures, but it does not record.
I am getting a little desperate now, I have a feeling that the omega rom made such problem but as of yet it did not fix said problem! What should I do?

Video not recording
Do you have a link to the kernel and has anyone else tried this? I'm also having the same problem with the video recording not working and I'm not sure what to do about it.

I'm having exact same problem
I'm also having this exact same problem with my N9005 Note 3. Its running Lollipop but i don't really much about roms as i bought it used from some shop. Everything works fine both cameras take pictures but video recording doesn't work at all. Also i downloaded a screen roader app and its videos are also not recorded. When i finish recording them and go to gallery it says File Corrupted. Please anyone got fix of this problem yet?
So I solved it by:
Using Odin 3.11.1
I have already tried Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flashed the latest stock Lolipop or older lollipop with ODin and nothing solved the problem.
So I tried to flash the latest stock lolipop with Odin and marking checked (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update).
I suspect that the Phone EFS clear did the trick. It's function is related to the modem and radio of the phone. And clearly the modem has a problem here.
I hope this will help anybody out there having this issue.
This problem happened after trying to flash lollipop using FlashFire app to reserve the root that I had in my previos Android KK 4.4.2.

Hi everybody,
@hayder78,
I tried to do the same to fix the issue: flash with the last firmware available for my region code (XEF - N9005XXUGBOK6) using Odin 3.11.1 and the same options (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update) but I still have the issue.
@Fenrir007
Did you manage to fix the issue using the same method?
I had the same issue with a 6.0.1 ROM (MagMa-NX UX8.5) on my Note 3 N9005. Any attempt to record video merely resulted in a "recording failed" message after about a second.
I thought I had installed a recent bootloader and modem using Odin 3.11.1, but although I did it twice I had used a "Reboot to Download" restart and for some reason that does not seem to have taken properly - although I have no idea why, all the display messages said it had worked.
So I have just done a full (remove battery and then three-finger power-up) boot into Download as advised in this thread, and then sent the same BL_N9005XXSGBQA1 and CP_N9005XXUGBOJ2 files to the phone via Odin, and now video recording works fine.
So when people say clean boot into Download, they do actually mean it. Thanks folks!
Oh, and I did NOT need to tick the "clear EFS" option, which seemed a rather risky thing to try so I was avoiding it as long as I could.

Hi there,
I've had my Galaxy note 3 over a year now, its been a brilliant phone which has been well looked after. Yesterday all of a sudden whilst sat at the desk in work I went onto YouTube and tried to watch a video. It said playback error I thought it was just poor wi-fi connection so I tried to play some music off the phone (via mp3s i've had on there for a long time). I then got a Music playback error - Couldn't play the track that you requested. I thought ah its probably just a reboot thing so restarted the phone & still got the issue. I tried all of the media on the phone, videos, music in different formats...nothing works. I decided to boot the handset in Safe mode to see if that would help. Same problem. I had a look online for known issues & a few mentioned SD card problems. I had no SD card in my phone.
I decided to backup all of my stuff via my laptop & give it a factory reset. I really didn't want to do this but had no real choice. Anyway the problem still persists.
I am completely confused to how half an hour earlier on the desk in my office it was absolutely fine, then shortly later it stops working. I've never had a problem with it. I've tried numerous reboots since & still no luck.
The camera still works, its just no audio what so ever via headphones or through the speaker.
I also tried a few different media players too. MX player lets you pay the video....where as the standard android player freezer the handset when you try to watch a video.
At first I kept getting a SoundAlive is not working, close error.
Each time I try to make a phone call too it says "Call not sent" and the handset locks up and freezes really bad.
Does anyone have any idea what might of caused this? Literally the only thing I can think of is the fact I purchased a new battery for it 3 months back which is a none Samsung battery but would the phone really act this bizarrely all of a sudden?
I really don't wanna have to go and purchase a new phone when this was working fine yesterday & nothings happened to it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers
Try a factory reset first.
as mentioned above I already have done. No luck. I really cant get my head around why playing back audio and video would cause the phone to come up with errors. Its as if its a pc amd the soundcard has dust in it or drivers arnt installed.

I finally managed to download the original firmware and reflash via ODIN but unfortunatley still no luck
Its such as shame as the phone works brilliant still, the camera, charging, internet, sms, 4g works perfectly fine as usual. Its just this strange media playback problem.
Does anyone have any final suggestions?
If the mainboard was damaged, could this fault just happen to media?
Thanks for your help
Start
Test a known file on a PC or Laptop to make sure it works .
Make sure its a format that your phone can play .
Copy to phone .
Test if fails try another media player .
Does the phone ring or play system sound check settings volume .
If fails then it looks like a hardware connection problem .
Sorry for reviving this old topic but the same error occurred on my device too. Not sure what caused it.
I updated my rom and replaced battery at the same time. Tried to install stock via odin, edit audio config files, install custom audio engines but nothing helped. My every action gave the same result - no media playback and audio proccessing app crashes. Samsung phone info shows empty space under "Sound Card".
I hope this is not a hardware failure but if it is any idea how I can check that?
What model ???
Sugest factory reset then flash a new stock rom via Odin .Install nothing else and test .

As the thread title suggest my model is N9005. I reset and flashed stock via Odin already and it didn't work. I can try and do that again tho.

I was messing around trying to make my phone surround sound and flashed the wrong mixer path and mine started to do the same thing as you guys described. Restored my stock mixer path and all was good, what I'm getting at is maybe do a search do a sound mod, one that is louder then stock and try that, maybe it will change something for the good for you. I've seen ones u can flash in recovery and they also have a uninstaller zip so u can revert back to stock if it don't work.

Thanks for the help. Issue was fixed after flashing stock rom for the third time and then flashing separately bootloader and modem.
