Hey all. I'm a new LeEco Pro3 user, and I've noticed a weird issue: audio output through headphones will stop working after a few hours of not using it.
Basically, you can connect your headphone adapter with your headphones plugged in, play an audio file, and it will play through the speakers instead of through your headphones. Unplugging and replugging doesn't fix it. Raising or lowering the volume doesn't fix it. It cannot play audio through the headphones unless you reboot the phone.
I don't know what triggers it. All I know is, when this issue pops up, the the "Sounds and Vibration" sections of the Settings app crashes. When you try to enter it, you'll go to a black screen. Which is very, very weird. Could it be due to the USB-C audio driver crashing? What could cause it to crash?
The only solution is rebooting the phone. I really don't want to do that every time it crashes, as it has crashed on me 3 times so far in the past few weeks. :/ It actually started the second week I received the phone. I hadn't listened to music in a while, so I went to connect my headphones, and... lo and behold, it refused to play audio through the headphones no matter what I did. But the first time the issue occurred, I didn't bother going into the Settings app, which was stupid of me. I should have checked to see if the Settings app's Sound section crashed on me or not.
I have Dolby Atmos disabled, though CDLA headphones show up as "enabled" in the Sound section, but grayed out, so I can't disable that option. Dunno why. I have the stock equalizer disabled in Settings, and I don't use an equalizer in my music app. Maybe the CDLA option is causing audio to crash...?
I'm running 6.0.1 on the Banggood vendor ROM. No issues on the ROM, other than this audio issue. I don't even know if it's a software issue or not, could be a hardware issue, or an issue with the USB-C standard itself. After all, even the Pixel and the iPhone 7 have this issue and similar issues. I checked Apple's forums and some people are complaining that the Lightning adapter doesn't always work, or cuts out, and only unplugging and replugging it, or rebooting the phone fixed headphone audio. As for the Pixel, apparently some Pixels didn't charge until they were rebooted. But a software update fixed this(?)
I even saw a similar issue affecting the LeEco Pro3, same as the Pixel--some Pro3s won't charge unless they're rebooting, and someone on here mentioned a kernel fix for it. Something about a USB-C controller going haywire. But that fix is only for the x720, and I have the x722. I haven't had any charging issues so far, just headphone issues. Keeping my fingers crossed.
I'm thinking this is one of 3 things:
-Software issue with the ROM I'm running, or a kernel issue
-Issue with the dongle itself (I'm using the one I got in the box; i.e. the legit one)
-Issue with the USB-C port (could be loose, could be damaged; I cleaned it out, it's perfectly clean)
I'm leaning towards a software issue, if only because the "Sounds and Vibration" setting crashes when the issue occurs. If it was a hardware issue, surely the ROM would behave normally. Then again, what do I know, I'm no dev!
Anyone else having audio issues with their Pro3? I don't want to switch to Bluetooth because I have perfectly good headphones already, plus I would hate having another thing around to charge.
I'll try to take a video of the issue once it occurs again, but weirdly enough, it only happens when I'm preparing to leave for work. Hasn't happened to me at home once. I just don't get it.

Since flashing 3.1 I have been having a very odd sound problem
The only way i can think to explain is is: The TF seems to forget it has external speakers after a few seconds.
post reboot I have no sound from the speakers, no screen clicks etc. the volumes are all set to on, nothing is muted.
if I then plugin headphones and play some music,I hear the sound through the headphones without a problem.
I can then unplug them and have normal sound UNTIL I stop the music for about 5 seconds. after that time the speakers no longer work again until I reset them with the headphones.
Anyone have any ideas?
Unrooted TF WW running US 3.1 update
Quick update, I have flashed back to 3.0.1 and factory reset, still got the audio problems...
might be a second RMA for me then..
Im having a problem where I plug in the headphones and a weird German metal song comes on. I have no idea what app it is playing from or how to disable it.

You have a problem with audio too? Wow. My problem is on the headphone jack.
I saw your thread, but the problems we are having are ver different.
I have a work around for mine at the moment, so will wait and see if the official 3.1 fixes it this week
if not, RMA time.
Good luck with your problem.
hi bibilko,
I have the same issue since i bought it. It was stock 3.1.
What I have noticed, is if I plug a headphone it works. I then put the sound lower then 75%, unplug the headphone and then I have sound.
If I increase volume more then 75%, the sound gets killed in a couple of seconds.
What is your workaround?
Is this a software issue or hardware? The moment i set sound to 100% it kills and i have to repeat the steps.
This is not an issue related towards android whinking a headphone is plugged in when not.
thanks
About a month ago I started having an issue where my audio cut out after a few minutes. I found that twisting the device would cause it to return, but pause the media. After the audio cuts out trying to raise the volume brings up the "loud audio is bad for hearing" message, so combined with the media pausing issue I concluded somehow the device thinks headphones are being connected. That's when the madness began.
First, I took off the back cover to see if that was part of the issue, audio continued to cut out.
Then I removed the usb port/headphone jack. The issue continues.
I removed the battery and main board, found no issues, put it back together and the issue continues.
I removed the pogo pins in case something crazy there was going on, but that did nothing.
I formated system/data/cache and reinstalled CM, and the issue continues.
The crazy thing is, bluetooth audio works fine, even though if you connect a headset, it takes precedence and cuts out the audio.
Any suggestions on how to fix this are welcome. Thank you
Last night when I plugged in my headphones, all I got was a really loud electric buzzing noise?? I tried YouTube, the built in audio player and Shuttle+......Even restarted it, but the buzz didn't go away. When I unplugged them, it sounded fine in the speakers, but as soon as I plugged it back in, the buzz was back. I even tried a different set of earbuds and then plugged it directly into my bluetooth speaker, same buzz! I don't mean a slight buzz, I mean a buzz like the speakers were directly plugged into a shorted out headphone jack.
I ended up opening Dolby and disabling it, and the buzz was gone. I re-enabled it, and the buzz didn't come back. I have since used it a few times with no issues?
Has anyone else experienced this odd headphone jack issue? I'm wondering if it's because I'm ROOTed, have Xposed installed and have a theme installed? I have since uninstalled my Xposed modules, because I did have an audio tweaks to the volume steps. ll
It happened to me when I was listening to music and turned on Dokkan Battle, a game. Once I closed Dokkan Battle, it stopped. That was about 2 weeks ago, or the day after I received the phone. I don't know if I've tried to listen to music and play something else at the same time since. I assume that's the problem though.
I'm having an issue with pretty much every N rom I've tried - when I play music using wired headphones or with an AUX cable hooked up to my car, the music will stop randomly, usually every few minutes. Sometimes I'll get lucky and it won't do it for a while, but regardless, it still happens. I've tried a handful of different apps, AUX cables and headphones, and it always happens. Playing music using Bluetooth or the phone speaker causes no problems. Also, I disabled battery optimization for every app I've tried and still get pauses, and I've cleaned the headphone jack with rolled up tape to make sure there's no dirt or lint in there. I'm out of ideas and couldn't really find anything here on XDA or searching on Google. Please help, and thanks!
have you tried with another headphone? your headphone's cable might be little bit broke, so ur phone detect that the jack is unplugged, and it stopped automatically. (bad english srry, im trying to help)
Thanks for the reply, but I already said I tried different headphones and AUX cables
I can't be the only one experiencing this issue
I am facing the same issue as you do.
Yep, same here. Happened on pretty much every Nougat Rom out there.
I just looked through the settings on my phone and poweramp (Beta, don't know about the stable version) has a setting for this exact problem and it seems to work
Got my phone a few days ago. Unlocked the bootloader and flashed Resurrection Remix v5.8.4.
Camera is barely working (constant 'Could not connect to camera' error message), so I used Google Camera Instead (Panorama mode always out of focus, seems to be a common problem).
The touch screen has some problem recognizing touches near the top corners ( approx. 0.3 inch to the top). It's mentioned in another thread that EUI 20s fixed the problem but I'm not sure if the other custom ROMs contain the fix.
The bigger issue is I'm getting crackles/electrical noises while using the CDLA earphones with the screen on. It happens for a split of a second every few seconds and gets rather annoying. The relief at the moment is it does not occur when the screen is turned off. Audio is also fine when using the USB-C to 3.5mm adapter with normal headphones.
I'm wondering if this is a software issue (with RR?) or the earphone 's problem.
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
I just plugged my CDLA headphones into my Pro 3 running omnirom and have the same issue (using Google play music app as a player). Minor clicks/crackles with the screen on. Must be something with this family of 7.1.x roms.
I am running the Resurrection Remix v5.8.4. and have the same problem hearing cracking noises randomly while talking on the phone or listening to music using the original LeEco CDLA OEM earphones. I think the audio driver of the Resurrection Remix v5.8.4. maybe causing the issue here. Hopefully will the Android 8.0 update with the new ROM would fix that.
Well, flash back to eUI. Still having those issues? If so, it sounds like a hardware issue. Maybe the ROM didn't flash correctly.
