[HELP] Audio issue, incall and buzz - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I have a big problem.its hard to explain what i did so ill make a chronology:
-My phone was fine,i was happily using cm7 and my ace had no problems at all.
-i love changing roms once a week and i usually tried new roms.
-one day,i noticed my INCALL VOLUME was very LOW.
-My external speaker audio worked very well.
-I decided to try VOLUME +,it didnt seem to work but i left it installed at +4.
-some days after,i started SUDDENLY to hear a buzz from external speaker everytime a sound was played. It feels BOOSTED because the audio quality is still good.
Since then nothing managed to solve this problem. I flashed lots of roms, i uninstalled volume+ and put the settings to 0 again but nothing.
Today i unrooted and flashed stock xwktq with odin but the problem still there. Then i found the secret code (*#*%197328640#*#*) but...in the menu,when i thought i was about to solve the problem..
AUDIO IS LOCKED. Only that setting. I tried another stock, xwkt7 , now it says [5]AUDIO in the secret menu but if i tap there nothing appens.
Then i rooted again, pushed a deodexed servicemenu.apk, flashed sgsii jb but nope, I CANT ENTER IN AUDIO SETTINGS FROM SERVICE MENU. Please help me,i wanted to try this solution before taking my phone to samsung support,i need it hope it is a clear explanation!

UP..really no solution?

Volume+ is an Advance app.... It possess the capability to Distort any Speaker or Headphones foe a short time or Prolonged use or high Frequency may cause the distortion to stay forever... In short your Speaker might be permanently Damaged...

Very weird problem

Hey guys,
Im having this very very very weird problem, I have a brand new galaxy, and I like the phone alot and everything is working just fine. But I have a little ´´problem´´. Randomly, my phone volume seems to decrease by 2/3, and the volume is very low while playing mp3's (through the speaker). After being called, the volume is normal again, and loud as it should be.
Is this fixable? because else I will take the phone back to the store.
Thanks in advance!
I had that same problem though after flashing it with another rom (darkys) it stopped. Was really worried for a while though hehe.
Maximize your volume under Settings > Sound > Volume. See if it still occurs.
Another rom? Maybe I should try that.

[Q] Microphone volume very low while phoning

Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing problems with the volume of my microphone when I'm in a call.
The persons at the other end of the call can only hear me very silent.
The problems are only exists with the standart phone app, when I'm using a third party app (like sipdroid) my volume is fine...
I'm using Cyanogen 7.0.3 on my Nexus One
Is there a fix for this Problem?
With the stock ROM I don't have this problems but I need a ROM with trackball wake because my power button fails.
I can't RMA my Phone to HTC right now, because I'll be not at home in the next three weeks. Therefore I need my mobile phone with me.
I'd use an other ROM which has TB wake support and no microphone issues but at a quick glance through the forums I couldn't find a suiting one.
Thanks for your efforts to help me
hey, i have a similar problem but i noticed that using different kernel affect the microphone. I'm a noob to this so im not entirely sure if kernel is related to microphone.
Well basically im running miui rom 1.5.6 right now and i was using redstar kernel 38.4 and then i upgraded it to redstar kernel 38.5. Then i called my girlfriend and she could barely hear me. Then i reverted back to 38.4 and she hears me now much louder but not the clarity isn't as good.
You using DT a2sd by any chance?
Damn, my phone froze today at work and I had to pull the battery.
Now I can't power it on again due to the not working power button...
Battery trick doesn't work either.
So I guess I have to take the bitter pill and RMA it right now.
Holy sucks! What's the battery trick...just incase.
Can anyone suggest any 'good' solution? kernel or otherwise to fix this $#@$# 'bug' of low in-call volume in Nexus One??
Would really appreciate all the help!
If people hear you very quiet - look up the mod to disable noise cancellation. If the problem will disappear with noise cancellation disabled - it means your 2nd mic is faulty and needs replacement.

Nope, people hear me well. Its that I cannot hear well. Specially in traffic, I usually tell them that I shall call them back
Any help?
Look up Gingerbread volume control app in Development forum. It can override the system settings and make the volume much louder than the maximum stock, AFAIK.
Thanks, but this app is not working for everyone AFAIK.

Lockscreen sound!

ok i need some help..
i cant hear lockscreen on/off sound on my phone!is checked on settings but its not working..i tried on gilgamesh rom and cm7 builds 18-19-20...none of the roms i managed to hear the lockscreen sound even if i do full wipe data and dalvik !!
what the problem might be??i can hear very well music and even when they call me i can hear sound even sound on sms alerts etc...!!
any idea so i can make it work???
thanks
I face the same problem since today.
It worked fine yesterday but I installed a few apps and played some vidos before I went to bed.
One of them was "Rock Player Lite", the other "Space Buster 3D".
Both apps where deinstalled after a few minutes of use.
Unfortunately, the phone was already in silent mode when installing the apps above.
I do not know if the apps caused this...
As for SW info, I am on stock ROM V10b (although carrier branding/SW).
@edangel:
try this: go somewhere with the phone, where no ambient noises are present.
Press the power button and unlock.
Then hold the loud speaker to your ear and press the power button again to lock your phone.
At this point I can hear the lock sound, but very very quietly...
Maybe someone has an idea what causes this...
I can't remember mine ever having a lockscreen sound..
Yeap i can hear it now but very hard!its so low the sound so i can hear it!!i dont know why is that happening!weird..till before 3 days it was very fine and worked and now i cant even find a solution about this issue!

[Q] Speaker problem..

I want to know if some1 else have experienced this... it fixes waiting 30 or 40 mins or rebooting.. so i dun have a mere idea of what's happening. Tnx in advance if some1 can help..
What bootloaders are you on
Sent from my I897 using xda premium
I went back to stock eclair before flashing CM.... so i guess eclair bootloaders..
I am having similar issues. However, no cwm or Odin flash has yet to fix it.
Funny.. My wife's Cappy did that a while back. speaker just totally quit on EVERYTHING. it was running stock then with ZERO MODS. to fix, pushing on the speaker solved it. Like the connection contacts were makeing good connection for it.
I'm pretty sure that this is a physical problem unrelated to any ROM. You should try opening the back and pushing down on the speaker unit so that it makes better contact. I had similar problem and this did the trick for me. There was another thread where someone suggested using padded tape to keep pressure on the speaker unit, but so far that hasn't been necessary for me.
For physical problem, do what ^^ he said
When I was CM7.1 i was having same problem with my cappy, the quality of sound was horrible everywhere...on speaker, earphone and if streamed to external speaker...someone sugggested to use DSP manager settings, but i didnt do it and moved to another rom..

Help Needed with sound problem

I have been using my G Play Mini running nougat Aospa ROM 7.3.0 . Everything was fine. I used the alarm clock,music and video apps regularly,and suddenly all the sounds of my phone does not work. First I thought it was only the microphone as It would not record any sound on my voice notes but then I tried to make a phone call and to play music and speakers would not work also. After that I tried plugging in my headphones and the phone would detect earplugs connected but neither the sound or mic works. I reinstalled the stock firmware from 4.4 to 6.0 and nothing.Though i found out when playing FM radio in loud speaker mode, the rear speaker worked fine. Nonetheless, its pretty weird all the speaker and mic stopped working at the same time.Bluetooth speaker works fine though. I even tried using various apps to boost the sound but still at zero. When i try playing music there seems to be a noise like hissing sound and after sometime the area around speaker gets hot. It has been troubling me for days. I even took it to customer care for help, but they returned it to me back saying it cant be repaired.
Has anyone other faced this problem ? Any help or suggestions would be gladly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestions, i tried like 10-15 apps to boost sound or amplifiers and to check if any of the hardware part was not working or not. Everything was on sound condition. but no sound. that was until 3 days ago. i tried to change the sim to another phone and restarted it, was working for a minute and then it went dead. Currently on the workshop trying to figure out what happened after i did everything i could at home. No charging, no forced updates when buttons pressed nothing. I jst want it to be working cause its one of my fav device. will get back here if i get it working again.
