phone audio turns off when I smack the phone? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

So I am trying to fix up a Samsung galaxy s4 and I noticed when I'm playing music if the phone is smacked the audio shuts off and I have to plug headphones in and unplug to get it to start again. Its not to hard like I'm not chucking it across a room haha. Any clue of the issue. Also it shut off on me a few times so I deleted cache and did factory reset. Hasn't shut off again yet.... I also 4emember my dad was having issues with it being connected to sprints network, like it would disconnect a lot. Any help is appreciated.

No more vibrations!

My bloody phone stopped vibrating, I can still hear something moving inside my phone when I should have haptical feedback, but no vibrations or whatso-ever...:S, not on start up, not when someone calls me, never! Very annoying,very ****ed up! Is there anything I could try exept turning my phone in @ the VF-shop?Anyone else having this problem?
Have you tried a Hard reset to see if that sorts it?
yes, I already tried rebooting, rebooting whilst taking out the battery, and I already flashed the 1.72 ROM again, nothing worked so far, so it ain't the software that's broken...probably hardware issue....
do you play games a lot? use the motor a lot?

Headphone jack

Hi,
I have seen this in some threads, but I have not seen any solution.
I have rooted my X10a phone to R2BA023 and now, the phone takes a long time to recognize I have inserted a headphone, routing the audio to the external speakers.
I do not have this issue when I am using bluetooth, jst my normal headphones.
Anybody has a solution for this?
It happens to me too. It is kindda fixed (version 20 had a huge problem with headphones) but it is really slow to pickup the headphone signal
I don't know if it is time based or software based
Things I do that SEAM to work sometimes:
force close mediascape and re-open
boot with headphones connected,
turn media volume all way down, pause, play and turn it back all the way up.
wait for a minute or so
I don't get what turns it on. I thought it was fixed.
I'm having no problem, of course I force close most apps, including mediascape as soon as I boot up.
By the way, I do not use mediascape. I use 3 (cubed).
I usually force close most of my apps also.
I have not use the delete step of the rooting tutorial.
mine is working fine b4 and after rooted! is there something wrong with your headphone jack?
I'm rooted on R2BA023, using 3(cubed) as well. Use it everyday for 3 hours or so (1hr drive to work each way) it works instant for me, I did a check yesterday after seeing your thread. Might be a hardware issue??
I'm having the same issue. I know my headphones worked with the first root, but when I upgraded to R2BA023 is when they stopped working.
I noticed that if you restart the phone with headphones plugged in, they work, or if you leave them plugged in for like 2 minutes, they start working fine.

I don't know about the restart with the phones plugged, but my headphones worked just fine with the R2BA020 root and they start working just after sometimes, this happenning not moving the phone or the headphones at all.
Just tried the restart. It just works after some time also.
I have no probs whit mine done rooting and did it at the first time

I9301I Issues

Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help me out with this issue I've been having with my Galaxy S3 Neo.
Some time ago my phone started to randomly crash internal android services and processes. It kept working after reboots until up to a point. The things that didn't work properly were Music apps, phone and (so I figured) all apps that somehow are connected to audio. A factory reset did not fix my issue.
I brought my phone to a local repair shop and they fixed it with some sort of factory reset, which they told me was done over reinstall by PC.
It worked for a few months and I had no problems at all.
Now, since a few days, my phone starts acting up again.
I don't get the crash reports like I used to get, but it's 'dying' nonetheless.
It started with the Facebook app not working anymore, it kept 'looping' the 'setting up facebook'-message and crashing the locations process, so I deleted the app.
That helped for a bit.
Now:
- I can't call anymore, it hangs.
- I can't listen to music, it hangs.
Again, any sound/audio related apps make my phone crash or hang.
The Music app, I can start it up, press play and it just doesn't respond. It says it's playing, but the counter remains on 0:00.
The weird thing is, that when I hook my phone up to my Bluetooth car stereo, it plays music fine.
It seems that whenever the phone is trying to connect to the speaker, it has issues...
A factory reset through settings didn't fix it, and neither did a hard reset in recovery mode..
Help is required!!! Please!!!!
I tried CWM, wiping everything, put CM12 on it, but no luck. Could it be that the speaker(s) is (are) dead and Android can't work properly when that happens?

Question Audio Glitch that nothing seems to fix

Hey all, my nothing phone is running the latest build and has developed a random audio glitch that is also now a charging glitch where it will start and stop audio of all types after 2 seconds, pause for 1 second and repeat. Initially I thought it was just music and streaming apps until someone phoned me and my ringtone did the same thing.. Weirder still is connected to wireless earbuds has the exact same effect. I've factory reset several times now with 0 change apart from now charging while switch on follows the exact same pattern.. charges for 2 seconds and then stops. Guessing something is pretty broken and now the phone is just a dud but before I slamdunk it into the trash any ideas?
wait does it happen consistently every two seconds?
Yeah it's beyond frustrating when you're trying to talk on the phone it's still doing it

Using an external Equaliser like Wavelet brought me that issue, but otherwise this is unheard of.
Heading straight to the service center is what i'ld recommend, if you are from India.
#ps: Try booting into SAFEMODE and see if the problem still exists
