[Q] Cognition 2.4 and 2.4.1 No sound Issue - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My device makes no sounds anymore. It did this after a day of having 2.4, stopped, then started working just before I went to flash 2.4.1 with the hope of fixing the issue because I kind of need sound.
All Volume sliders are up, sliding them plays nothing, Silent or Vibrate mode is off. When selecting a notification it does not play, alarms do not play, just go off silently..., Media such as songs a movies have no sound. Tried rebooting and everything.
After flashing 2.4.1 the issue was apparent right away.
Hopefully DG saw my posts and is aware of the issue.
Anybody have any idea on how to make sound work?

I had this problem with ringtones so I flashed back to stock, master cleared, and flashed again. So far it seems to be working.

When I flashed to 2.4.1 I GSM MAster Cleared, went back to stock, rooted, CW'd, and then flashed 2.4.1 and I had never done that before and was hoping it would help. I guess I can always try again.

Random vibrate with Cognition?

So I updated to Cognition's 2.2, and all is well except every few seconds it will start vibrating like I have a text or e-mail. I don't have any texts or e-mails and I have service, so I am not sure what the issue is. Anyone having the same sort of thing happening? Thanks in advance.
Also noticed that I can't get to silent mode. It will go to vibrate mode, but I remember in 2.1 there was Vibrate and Silent. Only vibrate in 2.2? Weird.
Edited again: And while in Settings, the back button doesn't work. Awesome. If anyone has a fix for this let me know, or else I'm probably going to master clear, go back to stock and try and start over ;\
Not sure if these are FC's.... anyone?
I can tell you that someone in the DEV thread on the COG 2.2 build did say that was due to FCs. But that was close to the end (as of a few min ago) and there was no resolution that I read.
I had this problem with One Click Lag fix and email FC's that made my phone constantly vibrate. Once I disabled OCLF, the problem went away.

[Q][SOLVED] Ringtone playing after a call ends

Hello XDA Members,
I have an odd issue on my hands.
Description:
I get a call, from either a landline or cellphone, the ringtone plays just fine. After I end the call, the ringtone then plays again on its own. There is no way to silence it or get rid of it. The phone is fully responsive, I can open apps, and use it normally aside from my ringtone playing in the background until it reaches the end of the song.
My question to you guys, has anyone ever experienced this, and if so how did you resolve it?
NOTES:
Running stock AT&T ROM with the latest update and Voodoo lagfix. Never flashed any other ROM's.
My wife is using the impression and sometimes her text message notification does the same thing, plays after reading text restart fixes for a while but it always comes back, I havent seen this on my captivate or read of it happening to any others. maybe a master clear?
I too have had it happen with text message notifications, I am using Handcent.
I'm thinking a master clear may resolve the issue because it seems software related, but I was hoping to do it without clearing things out. I was thinking some app, out of the hundred or so installed may have something to do with it.
If doing a master clear is the only resolution, I might as well just flash a new ROM, I already have everything I possibly could back up all backed up.
I have resolved this issue without a factory reset or flashing another ROM.
I was playing around with where the ringtone MP3 file was located and I had moved it into the phones internal storage. I moved it back out onto the root of the SD card and all seems to be ok. I cannot believe I didn't think to remove or move the file that was getting played after a call.

[Q] Startup beeping ?

Just after I power on my phone it makes a loud, annoying noise like: "beep-beep beep-beep beep-beep beep-beep"
It started when I set a custom ringtone and notification sound.
The only cause I can think of is that maybe the phone is trying to play my custom sounds files before they have been scanned by the media scanner, which is resulting in a system notification sound being played instead.
Is that likely to be the case?
My custom sounds are stored in: /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/notifications and /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
Thanks.
Delete or move your custom sounds to test your theory .
No mention of firmware .

Sorry, I was sort of seeing if anyone had a similar problem first. Anyway:
Firmware: 2.2.1
Baseband: I9000XXJPY
Build: FROYO.XXJPY
(Not rooted)
I think I am meant to get Gingerbread any day now, and I plan to root after that - so maybe one of those will fix it.

What I noticed on mine is this only happens when there is a voice mail left when phone was off. I get this annoying, almost non-stop beeping when the phone boots up, and about the only way to stop it is too check notifications asap. I have no tone that sounds like this beeping, and have no clue why it does this on boot. I thought it was stock ROM issues, but I have flashed auxora and trigger 3.2, and get the same annoying beeping. It is only when there is a voice mail in the notifications, when booting up phone.
Thanks jman!
I had the same problem, hours of searching 'android boot alarm' and endless variations on google found nothing on this. I googled 'android beeping at boot', found this thread and you were 100% correct. I cleared my voicemail and no more beeps! Seems like an odd bug, anyone know a way to prevent this from happening any further? I was minutes away from a hard reset before I found your advice. Thanks!
Same here on I9000B Froyo 2.2 JPA
I hate this beep. Its so loud.

No UI sounds, CM7

I've been running cm7 since build 57, all UI sounds were playable then. Since I usually keep my phone on silent, I can't say for certain when exactly my UI sounds stopped working, but it was probably around #65. Anyway, the sounds on the dialer work, however the screen lock/unlock, and all keypress sounds are gone. I've checked the system folder, the files are there in system/media/audio/ui and in the .ogg format. Any ideas as to what the problem could be? Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
For the record, I've made sure the sound settings have audible touch and screen lock/unlock sounds checked, and I've flashed at least 3 times since the problem started. Ran 'fix permissions' as well, to no avail.

The same thing has happened to me, since #77. I only noticed it as missing notification sounds. I think I've disabled all other UI sound effects. I read on an forum after searching for this issue that someone fixed it by doing a factory reset and flashing the latest firmware again. I'm not quite there yet where I'll want to restore everything again..
I tried a factory reset this evening and flashed #84 but still no notification sounds unfortunately. Bizarre.
Hi,
same problem here, are you using voodoo sound?

Have you tried going into settings/cm settings/sounds and had a play with the settings in there?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, but there is no sound for lock/unlock the phone.
I did the same last night with no change, but this morning I fired up the Google Plus app and my phone buzzed and played the notification sound! I didn't change anything!
Vibrations are turned off in the system settings but when I get a text message the notification causes a vibration anyway.
Argh, tested again and notification sounds are turned off again. Bah.
I had Voodoo Sound installed but I haven't installed it since I did a factory reset last night.
hmmm ok, after flashing nightly 84 and google apps, all sounds work well.
But after flashing fugu kernel the sounds of lock/unlock dont work.
Eighter reboot or kernel would be the solution, didnt test it yet.
MfG
ok for me i have found the mistake...
i always delete /system/media because edit hosts file with addfree dosnt work...
and create /media path on sdcard...
now,after flashing newer nightly it is not necessary to delete media in /system
all sounds work after reboot or flashing fugu kernel
MfG
This is extremely odd. Yesterday and today the notification sounds worked, but only in the morning. Come the afternoon the sounds (and vibration) stopped working. Very, very weird.
Try this:
Go into Settings->CyanogenMod Settings->Sound.
Uncheck "Notification Focus", "Silent State" and "Vibrate during calls" and also set and unset Quiet Hours.
I did all of the above and notification sounds came back. Will keep you posted on what happens next.
Still working a few days later. My guess is that the database of settings got corrupted somehow and by changing the settings above I was able to fix them. Phew!
It doesn't explain why the notifications worked in the morning and then broke later in the day though. I'm just glad they're working at all now.

[Q] Keyboard click and vibration of on selection of menus.

Does anybody have issues with the keyboard click sound being to low,the locking and unlocking sound also low, music,calls,video play loud, and the vibrate feedback when selecting menus and soft keys are very faint but when I receive calls it's fine. it did this in stock rom, then I rooted to see if it would solve the problem but it did not. Moved on to the .893 custom rom hoping it would fix issue it has not. All volumes are up and have not dropped the phone, also tried to restored back to stock a couple of times and and rooted again re-download custom roms still no luck fixing this, could this be a hardware issue? or should I try to explain to the rep that the phone should not do this and see if I get another phone.
