So, I had a problem on the official ICS update where none of my apps except the stock music player would play any sound. I installed Wild Child's rom from his forum, and that worked for a while. But, I still encountered the problem, and I must take out the battery (not just turn off the phone) to bring back sound. ANy workaround?
HTC Vivid ICS 4.0 No audio in media, video or games
I have the same issue on my HTC Vivid after the AT&T official ICS update. The sound doesn't work in YouTube, Netflix, or Pandora to name a few. The voice doesn't speak in Google Navigator.
I've tried turning on and off beats audio.
I've tried adjusting the volume within the application and I checked that all three volume bars were all the way up in system settings. It seems to be the "Music, video, games & other media" volume that isn't working. In fact, moving that volume bar in settings doesn't even make a noise like the other two bars.
I reloaded the ICS update from the ROM menu and started over. Audio worked again for a while, but then I ran in to the same problem.
The good news is that shutting down and removing the battery just worked for me, so thanks for the tip.
same...
I myself have stock ICS upgraded on my HTC Vivid, I can hear audio from Youtube, but I can't hear any sound when playing .AVI movies, tried 4 different video players.. no results, please some1 find a solution!
Try a custom Rom?

Restarting (last option) also gives sound, so I suspect that turning off the quick boot (or whatever it's called) would help too so regular turn off with work too. The restart option terminates everything, while if you keep that quick boot option on, the phone doesn't really start fresh.

Turning off Fast Boot in the Power settings has solved my sound issues. Rejoice Vivid owners no more rebooting just to watch some youtube.

Well the other day I noticed that while listening to music and going to the camcoder the volume significantly increases. Any one else notice?? If so plz post
Yeahh it also happens to me when I back out of certain games. The volume on the media player will only play at 25% even at the max. Solutions . Soft reset(turn phone off and on) or use media volumes settings which is an app that lets u adjust the volume back to normal. I think they wil fix it eventually in a nodo update.

I noticed the same thing quite a while ago but for me it was because I have the HTC Sound Enhancer app and had the settings different for music and video.

Has anyone had any problems with PowerAmp on their bionic? Sometimes it stops playing when i have it connected to bluetooth headphones . Tried playing around with all the settings to no avail. the only way i can get it to play sometimes is by ticking the box that says play when connection resumes to BT. Basically what it does is play but it produces no sound. I've contacted the DEV multiple times and no responce
basically from someone else with the same problem
"I start playing PowerAmp
While a song is playing, I'll switch to another song (either by swiping or by pressing the "next" button)
I'll switch songs a few times, and after a few (7-10 songs) the audio will stop coming out. However, the timer will still advance, so the player thinks that the song is still playing.
During this time, all other sounds work normally, just not PowerAmp. The workaround is to kill the task using the stock task manager and then restart PowerAmp.
This is a hugely annoying bug on an otherwise great program. This bug makes it borderline unusable. It never used to happen on my old DroidX, so I'm not sure if it's related to the new phones, or if an update created this bug."
I use to have that same problem. I think i solved it since i haven't had the problem anymore. But i turned off all the fading and that seemed to work.

thank you for the help, been using it and the fix works!
I had this problem. I switched to 2.0 beta 3 and I haven't had the problem since.

Edit: just that the rc is available. Sweet!
I have the same issue. I would use task killer then go back to Power Amp and it would start playing again. I just upgraded to 2.0 last night and we will see what happens
after the update i was confused on how to get the EQ and shuffle mode turned on from the player menu. turns out if you tap the album art in the middle of the screen itll pop up in the corners. confusing if your used to the old layout.
I had this same issue for weeks. Been really aggravating me. Glad i am not alone. I will try turning off all Fading. Thanks for the tip. I updated the app too. Hopefully the bug is gone.
Ive tried searching the forums and google and cant really find a similiar problem. When I plugged a headset in my music plays horrible and my in call volume is garbage.
If i go into settings and sound then volume there are 3 options. media, ringtones, and alarms. ringtone and alarms blow my ears out via the headset so i know it works but the media one is really low. It's as if something isn't turning on properly during calls. like its not in stereo.
im using android revolution 3.0.1 and it worked prior to this. im open to suggestions. ive tried DSP manager, and all my volumes are jacked. what am i missing to get this to work.

Still no luck. I've even gone back to an old back up from long before any of this happened and that back up has the same issue.

Lately i've noticing a strange sound behavior. Whenever i play Music on the loudspeaker Music tends to fade out and in, i mean the volume goes down and then up, and no matter what player i use it,s happening so often that it's getting annoying. Any help or ideas, has anyone faced this problem? And don't know if it's rom related.
it's like something is making the sound to lose focus, like when you recieve a message while listening to Music with a headset but on headset this problem doesn't show up.
And for everyone to know i'm not using any sound mod.
edit: noticed that apps that use audio are crashing more than they should.
Hay man, I have the exact same problem, Sounds fades out then comes back... Oddly enough it's only just started happening in the last day or so. I'm on stock jellybean update with locked bootloader.
Is there any solution to this? Ive tried rebooting etc but no luck.

Try freezing soundenhancement.apk. I know this works on arc, maybe the same bug applies to XT/XTX etc.

Did that and no changes so far.
When playing walkman..i realise that the music seems like its stop and then play again..its stop around half a second..this happen in a few time per song..
Well I'm still having this problem but i've noticed that it happens oftenly whenever i'm listening music on loudspeaker and i open Chrome to navigate, it Triggers the problem. Been trying using Dolphin and it doesn't produce the problem.
I'm not 100% if chrome has to be blamed but that's what i've noticed
This weekend will try changing ROM to see if the problem goes away.
I have noticed this bug as well

Since disabling xloud I don't seem to get the issue anymore, anyone confirm?
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium
I've already tested by disabling xloud, but the problem persists, gonna try rebooting after disabling
Edit: same result after rebooting. The ultimate Test is to play Music then start browsing with chrome (at least with two tabs opened) the Sound will fade out and in eventually. Have in mind that only happens with the internal Speaker of the phone. No headphones or external speakers.
Well moved from TurzzdROM to Gregbradley's Assaye 1.1.0 and there's no sight of the problem, Not saying that was the ROM because i did something else, that is is not enabling Clear phase in Settings/sound, I just activated Xloud and thats it.
So... Try disabling clear phase on settings and rebooting and see if that works.
I'm on JB & is it just me, but I noticed that the sound settings of ringtone & noticifactions isn't very loud.
If you use the max. volume settings, it isn't loud at all....
Any one else noticed this?
It's starting to become a little more prevalent to me the more I use the phone.. When watching youtube videos it makes a skipping/poppy sound sometimes .. Also when listening to podcasts it sometimes gets garbled audio at the beginning then clears up.
Anyone else experiencing this or should I return my phone?

Software issue
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I think it is "fixed" by turning off beats-audio in the settings. It fixed it for me at least... when on phone calls it will pop unless beats is turned off.
Got the same thing only in youtube videos but not when playing music
I think it's a software issue
Is there a fix?
Hi just got this phone, love it except for this fault. Can anyone comment on whether or not this still happens on a custom ROM? You would think HTC would have found this fault and fixed it during development
