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!

Finally I was able to regain sound!
I tried loads of firmware combinations without luck, so finally had to go back to stock fw and up to 4.4 again.
Here are the crucial steps
Phone was not knoxed up
Flash with XXUBMEA (stock 4.2.2) using heimdall/odin.
Flash HLOS again manually, despite having done that in previous step, as phone was still showing newest modem version, (XXUBMEA or XXABMEA md5 0d8d7a23751956cfef0974cc611e71ec)
got sound at this point!
cf auto root, reboot, install philz touch, both via download mode
flash with Pure Google pre rooted 4.4 v2
Flash modem with recommended version XXUEMKE

My device has Knox enabled, I can't revert back to XXUBMEA as Odin fails when writing system.ext4.img
I hate to beat a dead horse here but i've been having nothing but troubles trying to upgrade my modem to NAE.
The modem it self flashes fine --- my baseband show NAE and firmware also. However, i have no audio output. As other users have described my dialer freezes (assuming from no audio output), playing music FCs DSP Manager, etc,etc.
I've tried flashing a 4.3 ROM then the modem then boot and then flash a KK rom. - No Luck
I've tried a NAE kernel after modem update (KTs Kernel) - No Luck
I just dont know what to do to get the NAE modem functional for me.
Thanks as always.
Have you tried to hard reset after the flashing? Anytime I've had major issues I would revert all the way back to mdl, update ota to mk2, root, custom recovery, backup then flash nae modem, recovery, reset, Rom, kernal if needed. Backup again if everything is working. I've never had any sound issue within any of my flashing. Odin version also plays a big deal, make sure you're running the most updated version. I hope this helps in some way. Good luck

Ya I had the same ****ty luck guys.
I was on mdl. Did the mf9 full update tar. Then flashed nae modem. All went find to then find out I lost sound.
Is updating OTA the ONLY way to get to mf9 before flashing the modem that will work?
I wanted to reflash sacs kk rom and get it working

I've tried hard reseting after flash. Im on MF9 Bootloader, Im pretty sure.
I used Odin V 3.07 to flash, Im not sure if thats the most recent version.
Ive read too that other people uncheck the F Reset Time and Auto-Reboot Options to get the modem to stick. I've done this too and the modem flashes (fine) when I pull up the page in settings.
Still I cant get any audio, or dialer(guessing because of the touch tones) on any ROM.
Any else find a resolution to this? I think I've seen a handful of us with this issue.
Having the same issue
Rather than start a new thread, i will post my issues here
Not sure what im doing wrong or what can be done to fix my issues. Originally was on the MDL baseband with stock rooted rom. I used the all in one MF9 (Modem/Kernel/Bootloader/ROM) to get all my parts running on MF9. At this point everything was running Great
I used this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2277480
made sure to follow every instruction carefully and updated to 4.4.2 NAE while keeping my baseband MF9
The Rooted Stock NAE rom gave me many issues:
1) No Sound
2) Very long/ sometimes unresponsive wake
3) Screen lag/delay when swiping left/right through apps
4) I could not use the camera
5) When i would press the volume rocker it would make my phone freeze and be very delayed
6) Could not make a phone call, I could receive a call but would no be able to Talk to or Hear the other Person
7) Screen would lag or sometimes freeze and go black when i enter my pin or pattern to unlock
8) I could not use wifi (solved this issue by using KToonsez latest Kernel)
I decided to change the rom and see if that would help.
I Flashed to CandyKat 4.4.2 rom and I noticed a great improvement
All of my lag issues were resolved, wifi was working without changing the Kernel
the only issues that still remained were:
1) No sound
2) Could not make a phone call, I could receive a call but would no be able to Talk to or Hear the other Person
3) Camera would sometimes work. but mostly would crash or give me an error
Sorry for the wall of text but i tried to include all the details for you. Anyone know what i am doing wrong or if there is a way to resolve these issues?
Yes, the is a very easy way to fix this, install the full NAE stock tar and enjoy a fully functioning kit kat phone. When you piecemeal an install like this, you have nothing but problems. I love when people claim everything's working great, except when I try to make a call, use camera, etc, etc. Just install the full tar, root, and enjoy your phone. And if your worried about Knox, suck it up, Knox does nothing to hamper you from customizing your phone.

Hello.
I followed the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51955929&postcount=1 to downgrade from NC5 to MK2 and then rooted.
After all was done, rooted and booted, my sound doesn't work, the phone call app lags big time and/or crashes, and I can't do speech-to-text for messaging cause mic won't activate (says can't reach Google but I have Internet connection).
I already tried clearing cache partition.
I'm unclear on how to flash fixes with safestrap or if that's even a solution. Any help is appreciated and thanked.
Thanks!

Did you flash fixed kernel ?
Not sure about the kernel but I figured it out. I skipped optional step because I thought it was optional. It wasn't. I flashed nc2 modem hlos file and that fixed sound, phone app and mic for messaging.
New issue now though. WiFi doesn't work. I tried flashing bypass as it said in thread but no joy.
Thanks.

You have version form Verizon so I'm not sure about this kernel, but in every tutorial for downgrade we have this kernel which fix sound and wifi.

What ****ing mania of downgrade! Flash android 4.4.2 again and bye bye problems.
not just their obsession they hope to get rid of Knox but will not succeed. the only option is to make that be replaced motherboard with warranty in Samsung service centre
Hello all,
So I've read the threads about the issues with no wifi/sound when people have rooted. I've spent the last 2 days flashing and re-flashing attempting to get these to fix themselves.
I have reflashed, what I believe, is the stock version of 4.2.2 to my sg4 sgh-i337m. After reflashing I noticed I never had wifi. So I reflashed a few times, as others had suggested, but still nothing. I then tried the cm 11 through the windows installer, then I was without sound or wifi. Now when I flash back to stock (maybe I'm not using the original rom?) I don't have sound, or wifi. I tied both CM12.1 optimized and Pacman, and for some reason they get wifi, but still no sound.
Could this be a modem issue?? It's making me crazy. I've reflashed and reflashed my phone with 2 seperate stock roms thinking perhaps I was using the wrong one, but nope. Tried the wipe caches before/after and still nothing.
I have the sg4 sgh-i337m, bought it in Nov 2013. Does anyone know what kernal/broadband we originally use? I lost mine before I had a chance to write it down (kicking myself in the face ever since).
If anyone knows how to fix this - I've tried all the usual fixes (sound about, pulled battery numerous times, multiple reflashes).
Thanks.
http://www.sammobile.com/ has all of our firmware for our phone just make an account and search firmware for your model number and flash threw odin.
i havent heard anything about sound issues i have heard about some wifi. i have the same phone as u and have flashed alost all the roms for it with out issue. maybe its a hardware failure i sure hope not for your case but it might be another problem to look for.
So let's start cuz it's a big story. So i have a Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505, rooted, TRWP Custom Recovery, i had plenty ROM's on him, everytime the ROMS worked perfectly except the bugs they already had....
The last ROM i had was Optimized CM12.1 JDCTeam. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...lop/exclusive-antaresone-alucard24-s-t3066696) it worked fine....
One day, they made an update of the ROM. Everything worked fine, until a morning 2-3 days after i made the update.... my alarm clock started ringing (as it was meant to be ) but the screen wasn't turning on.
I restarted the phone...but the alarm was still ringing when the phone restarted then it restarted itself. After this self restart....the phone booted with those optimizations (like the cache was deleted.) After it booted...surprise. No sound. At all. No sound in media player, no sound from calls, no sound when recieveing calls, no sound from my mic too.Then i noticed that movies from Youtube and from my gallery were playing in slowmotion, or not playing at all.
I though it was the ROM ...so i installed other ROMs....no success....all the ROMs i've installed had the same problem. No sounds at all.
Then i found a ROM, that played the Boot animation sound but all the other sounds were still not working. So of course this means it can't be a hardware problem anymore.
So back from the start.
Then i found this ROM, an S6 port : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-albe95-s6-port-1-0-t3092479
This ROM specifies that i must install the latest lollipop bootloaders and modems for it to work. So i've installed the modems and the bootloader given in the ROM topic....then the ROM and surprize....the sounds were working again. But the new problem was that the SIM reading stopped working and the rom was unstable. I've tried other modems to no success for the SIM.
Other Lollipop and KK roms, thinking that the bootloader or the modem was the one that fixed the sounds, didn't work so i concluded is not the bootloader. And then i've installed this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/rom-albe95-s6-port-1-0-t3092479 which at start it didn't played sounds. Then i've installed the bootloader from Albe95 S6 port post...and surprisingly sounds started to work on this ROM too. But from time to time the sounds dissapear..and i have to wait like some seconds to minutes for them to come back + the SIM still not working on this ROM . So somehow is the bootloader....but i dont get why it's working only on S6 ports..not even on MM ROM's is not working...
Can anyone help me ?
Edit : I forgot to mention that my partitions are F2FS....if this matters....

Thanks for the tip I've edited the post....it is better now ? or should i cut some paragraphs?
No, that's fine. I probably should have PMed that to you rather than post it, but it's a bit too late for that. Sorry.
Anyway, your symptoms, where it occurs erratically, could still be a hardware issue. However, I think it more likely that your internal storage "glitched", and that is causing your problems. Make sure you have a backup of your IMEI and EFS by using Wanam's EFS Backup tool. Then grab an I9505 PIT file, a stock ROM, and Odin. Use them to partition the internal storage (which will format it), and install the stock ROM. See if your sound issues are fixed throughout the ROM. If so, then replace the recovery with TWRP and install the ROM you prefer.
If it still happens even after going through this, then it's almost certainly a hardware issue.
