The audio both from the speaker and headphones only seems to work after a reboot. I have no idea when it stops functioning.
This was a problem from day 1 with the free elephant kid book using the Read To Me function. I just had it happen with the music player, both the native one and MortPlayer. I had originally assumed it was a glitch with the book.
If a reboot fixes the problem, it's a software issue, right? Why did a search here not produce any similar threads? If I'm alone here, then it's a hardware issue and I'll need to unroot and return it, right?

Your search method must be flawed, as this is a known & frequently discussed issue.

It's defective. Get a new one.
Thanks for the reply.
Now to unroot...
Mine had the same exact problem. Audio usually stopped working after the screen went to sleep for the first time after a reboot. I recently flashed the 900mhz "screamer" overclock kernel and I've yet to have an audio problem since then. As much sense as that does or doesn't make, it seemed to fix the problem for me. Its worth a try. Hope it works for you (if you haven't already unrooted and returned by now)

When you get your hands on the new one, before you leave the store do this. After power on & such, try the audio (V0l + -). Works? Put to sleep for >10sec. Wake & test audio. No-work? Reboot, (Long power press) Try sleep/wake sequence again. If it works you are golden, now check a few other things & go home & root it! If it fails the test, don't let the Nook Genius tell you that you should let it charge for at least 4 hrs. before testing. The three that I have received had between 50% & 90% charge OOB. That's plenty for it to work properly, assuming the battery level meter is accurate. Put together your own checklist based on info on this forum. Crossword to test edges of screen, kbd. when charging from wall adapter etc.
Good luck, when you get a good one they are solid!

Interesting! That would support the thinking that this issue is related to timing & initializing the audio codec or something related. Hardware specs may be skewed just enough for it to not work when waking up. That's actually encouraging! Means that all those with this problem may see a F/W fix if they don't want to re-clock it.
Cheers,

Well, I unrooted and restored it to factory new using the 9 reboot method. This brought the device back to 1.0.0. I then went back to the store. The manager came out, took the device, and said "it needed 1.0.1 to fix the problem. Let me load it for you." I was thinking, "whatever dude. It had 1.0.1 on it and it still had the issue." But the guy was super nice and ran off with the device to some back office. He came back while it was installing 1.0.1 and it's working fine now. I kept trying to get it to recreate the problem with no luck. (So it actually is good luck.)
I'm assuming the 1.0.1 software update didn't install properly the first time.
I could have done all that myself without going to the store.

That's interesting. I had the audio/sleep problem with 1.0.0 & exchanged it for another 1.0.0 that worked fine. ?????
Im running the customized nookie froyo from emmc 0.6.8 and video playback desnt work. According to nookdvs the youtube app works as of last version. The first frame of video shows then freezes thn only the audio continues. The audio even continues when youtube app is closed which is annoying but not a dealbreaker. Does video work for other nookie froyo users and if so how did you do it?
Ok tried it one last time and its fine..... not sure what sure what happened but yay
Ok, it works sometimes, though still kinda sketchy. Anybody running the 2/25 update yet? Is video any better?

All videos work. I just stayed up all night converting HD TV shows in Handbrake and they look great. The video backend is fully working, as there is no way the Nook Color's CPU can decode them.
Froyo is where the party is at!!!!
I will concur: youtube works awesome. Vimeo in Browser shows HD video beautifully. I haven't loaded any video content myself yet, but I imagine it would work well also.
wifi still seems glitchy - it drops connection on sleep and sometimes won't give it back on wake. This could be a settings problem though.
Battery life seems pretty dismal too, but this is probably related to the OC kernel.
Notifications are still strangely squished. Not a big deal but ugly.
I think those are all my complaints. This is probably the best nc experience I've yet enjoyed.

Dear all,
I noticed my phone has an issue and I think this may not be rom / kernel related, so I would like to ask here.
My phone is running fine every time after booting up, however after running for a random period of times (say 2 - 7 days), it cannot play any media files. I can't play youtube (it said the video cannot be played), can't listen to mp3 (music player reported unsupported codec), ringtone disappeared (phone don't ring if i get call) and other apps failed in similar way. A reboot can solve the issue.
It is a bit annoying (especially when you when to play something and you suddenly identified that you need to wait for 5 min for a reboot), does any one experienced similar issue?
To clarify , I am running darky rom with darky kernel 1.0, however I had this issue for a few months, I was using super optimized kernel and had the same issue as well.
Same here. i'm running Darky's 9.4 but I don't know if it is related to this rom.
I don't remember that I had this problem before.

I have this problem.
(dark kernel 1.4 and darky rom 9.5)
I get this occasionally and I'm on stock 2.2.1. It's a massive pain in the arse. I thought maybe it was something to do with my external micro sd card but I formatted it and waited hours to copy all my music to it again and I'm still having problems.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
So quite a few of people having this problem. Did anyone of us find out the root cause? And what's the reason that others do not suffer from this? This happened on Darky, Super Optimized Kernel, Speedmod, Stock Rom...
Some experts can help?
Also know this problem. Had it on stock and some custom roms too. Tried nearly every kernel ever available for our phone but didnt help. so it really maybe some strange Hardware issue...just speculating but when did you guys get your galaxy? cause mine was one of the `first generation` got it immediately when it was available here in germany in june/july 2010...perhaps this got fixed by Samsung later on

I've seen another thread were someone said it was called by the twitter client. They have updated the official twitter client recently, and I've not had the problem occur since. Although, it may be too soon to tell, it used to happen to me very regularly.
And just to followup, the problem hasn't gone away with the new version of twitter.
So, I'm not sure of what is the cause (or solution) to the issue.

Hi, where do you find the post also mentioned the same problem?
I am having the problem regularly too, after updating the Twitter client the same problem still happen yesterday, the phone run for around 2 days after last reboot.

Nope, i though you are talking the twitter update around 1 week ago. I just found that twitter have a new update today and never tried it if it fixed the problem. The change description do mention something similar, fixed a bug to skip music player while updating.. not sure if this is really the case.... need to test now...
good topic
I'm going to get rid of the twitter app then to see if it helps as updates don't seem to have done anything and I reformatted the sd card again and stuck everything back on there today and not only did it happen again, it's getting worse! Not only could I not play any music a minute ago, a load of my apps had vanished too! I assume ones that installed to SD by default rather than the phone storage.
If this sorts it out I'll be very happy. Twitter's crap anyway.
I've been having the same problem for a while now. I have just uninstalled Twitter and will see if that helps.
Basically all media stops working. Can't even record anything with the camcorder app. Nothing plays back. No youtube, no camcorder videos, no nothing. BUT arcmedia will open some videos sometime. HMMM weird, because other video player apps don't seem to be able to play them.
I'll give an update later today if it works. Videos normally stop working after only a few hours on my phone.

Do you guys have 8GB or 16GB models?
I've only come across this once and it was on a stock 16GB, one of the early ones, started about a week ago...upgraded to JVB seems to have solved it for now, time will tell.
16gb model, I've had 3 updates, and none have fixed the problem.

Hey guys, I searched and didn't see anything on this -- even Google did not turn up any results. I saw on the HTC One X sometimes there would be audio stutter/skips with the Beats EQ on. Sometimes when I'm playing music the audio will just glitch and stutter for no apparent reason. It is random. Has anyone else experienced this? It happened with the stock ROM as well as with ARHD7.

I am having this problem with the HTC One, streaming via bluetooth. I have raised the problem with HTC tech and waiting for a response.
I'm finding it hard to believe no one else has this problem. If it's a hardware issue I fully expect HTC to replace my unit. I will even take a recording of the stutter if necessary.
My audio will make weird noise in certain tracks and bass tones out of no where with beats on or off

I had this with my HTC One and it has been reported that it is a wifi issue. Turn it of (wifi) and it should work OK, mine does. It is a pain to keep switching wifi of and on so I found an app called A2DP volume in the play store that does it automatically.

Bumping to see if anyone else has this...
I am having this issue only when stream over BT.

Faulty sdcard possibly or your files are corrupt. Have you done an MP3 check on them?

I'm also experiencing this. Except mine skips/stutters even with beats off.
Running ARHD8.0 stock kernel w/purexaudio. I'm not sure which version of purexaudio the ARHD installed, but I went ahead and installed the most current version (v4.0) to see if it helps. So far no skipping, but I haven't tested that long yet..
There is a known issue that if you are using Adblock or a similar piece of software which modifies the hosts file that Pandora will stutter. Are you using an actual file, or are you using a buffered service that could be having an issue because of this?

It happens in the regular music player too; however I reinstalled ARHD8.1 and am not selecting adaway hosts files. I'll report back on the issue.. Thanks for the tip!
I am not using AdAway, and it happens in Play Music over the headphone jack. Haven't tested it with Bluetooth. I plan on installing TrickDroid sometime soon; I will definitely update this thread when I do and see if it still happens. Curiously, it's been happening less lately. Only once or twice a day.

So I reflashed ARHD8.1 without adblock and Pandora is no longer horribly stuttering. However it still has occasional stutters in both Pandora and Google Music. Still not sure what's causing it.

I reflashed without PureXAudio and the occasional skips/stutters still happens. Maybe once every couple minutes, really annoying considering this happened on my Note 2 also, which is why I bought the HTC One. I initially thought it might be a rogue app, but I don't have anything that could be causing it besides maybe groove IP disconnecting/reconnecting, or tasker. However I disabled both apps and the stutters still happen..

In terms of Bluetooth, the largest thing that could change in the near future would be if we get an official 4.2+ or the rumored 4.3 release, as the BT stack is recoded in that code base. This has the potential to change the game, but really considering your issue still seems to be isolated to your devices and not everyone's though, I've gotta think we're overlooking something. The further clue that you are saying this happened on your Note 2 as well also makes me wonder what else is happening.
Is this stuttering possibly during PBAP, MAP or some other profile saturating the connection with its own traffic? Is this on all BT devices that you've tested against or are we dealing with a dodgy car kit/speaker instead of a phone difficulty?

I dont use blue tooth, this is strictly wired 3.5mm connections. I don't have any uncommon apps besides tasker/secure settings/busybox/grooveip/xposed installer that were on both my note 2 and htc one. The only apps that have SU access are secure settings, xposed installer, seeder, solid explorer, betterbattery stats, and tasker.
I was almost sure that the stutter/skips were caused by purexaudio, but I guess not since I removed it.
I had this as well, does it sound like the stuff in this thread?:

It sounds similar, sometimes the audio would cut out entirely for a third of a second, but it was not happening nearly as frequent as yours. Mine only happened once every couple minutes. Also I have since flashed bulletproof 1.9 kernel with purexaudio 4.0 and the problem seems to have gone away. However, more testing needs to be done..
I'm thinking it has something to do with CPU usage, like it running a process in the background that disrupts the audio output. But I don't know if anything can be done about that.
Morning everyone,
So I hope I don't get flamed to bad but search turned up nothing on xda in conjunction with just a google search in general.
I am on stock 5.0.1 with elemental x kernel latest release and root. I can't watch netflix to save my life. I pull up a video and its just a black screen with no audio. I feel like i've always had this issue but I also haven't done a factory reset in "recent" times. (i've factory reset when 5.0.1 came out).
Bottom line:
If there's no threads complaining about this particular issue, can I assume that netflix works fine on this phone?
Thanks
Working fine here. I'm not on stock but that shouldn't be an issue. Using latest elementalX kernel
Try uninstalling netflix, reboot phone, and reinstall netflix. I had a similar issue and this fixed it for me.
Of course it works
