Anyone else have issue with moto x sound? - Moto X Q&A

My moto x is 2 days old. Was playing music then the music just skipped and stopped. Now in have no sound what so ever. Earpiece works but loudspeaker does not. Headphones work too. Did a factory reset but still nothing. Phone calls don't ring either. I'm thinking hardware failure. Any input will help. If I can't fix this I think I'm gonna just switch to a droid ultra !!

I had this issue happen to me. I was able to fix it by running a full system cleaning with fix permissions checked in an app called root cleaner. It can be found on the play store, but you need to be rooted and the app isn't free.

No issues with mine, nor have I heard of this being any sort of known issue. Very possible that you have a defective unit, you may want to exchange it, most likely a hardware issue and not software.

Yea has to be hardware. I jus started "slapping" it against the palm of my hand and it started playing. The speaker is pretty loud so I think its blown or something. Oh well now I can get the white one ! Thanks guys for the suggestions.

Popping noise when unlocking screen?

Has anyone heard a popping noise when unlocking the kindle. Its happened to me a couple times now. Wonder if its software or hardware issue. Thanks

I get the same thing from time to time. Doesn't seem to be an issue if the volume is turned down halfway or lower, but over about halfway and I get it.

I was having the same issue. Turned off Dolby Digital in sound settings and seems to have fixed it.

Of course now the volume level seems much lower. I hope they fix this issue soon since it doesn't sound nearly as good without Dolby. I sent amazon some feedback on the issue. Hopefully everyone else who has this issue will let amazon know.

I get this on occasion on my rooted fire HD. It was getting me worried that there was something wrong with mine.
I had the same problem in class today. My volume was turned all the way down, and I also had it in air plane mode. It didn't happen every time I unlocked the screen... maybe four times out of ten. Enough to be very annoying

I am also getting this and in fact returned my original device for that, screen bleed and one other thing that was specific to me. Unfortunately the 2nd one is doing it as well.

Fyi: HTC One Speakers died

I am just posting that the on board speakers died on my phone. They aren't blown as headphones don't work either. I can only hear anything on a regular phone call as speakerphone doesn't work either. I have restored my one to stock as I am doing a rma on it. Anyone else ever experience this?

Maybe the built in amp died!?

Possibly since it's only amped audio that does not work

Do you have bluetooth speakers? Try that and if it works it's probably the amp imo. If it doesn't it might be your audio driver. Either way your probably going to have to get a replacement or a repair.
Have you called HTC and troubleshooted with them yet?

Yea I contacted AT&T my provider and they are shipping me another one. I had cm10.2 on it when it stopped worked but even returning it to stock had no effect. I just posted here to see if anyone else had experienced this issue.

Not closely similar to this, but I'm about to claim for the SECOND time that the top speaker is junk. The first phone it blew leaving it distorted and fuzzy. This one, all of a sudden overnight it sounds like a crazy vibration coming from the speaker. Kinda hard to explain... But it sounds absolutely terrible. So I'm going to fastboot the RUU and see if that makes a difference. If not its going back for another

crackling sound with a voice

I have my galaxy gear from att running stock with a few sideloaded apps. I have really enjoyed using the watch and use s voice for responding to texts. However the speaker sometimes sounds crackly. I don't know if I can fix it or need to take it back to att.
Any advice?
Yeah I'm having the same issue I returned the first one I had cause of that issue I'm rooted and on null 18

The farther I am from my phone when using s-voice, the worse it gets. If I'm next to my phone, it's fine. Go upstairs and phone down, it's crackly. I feel it's not the speaker but just the relay between phone and gear is weak, like when I used blue tooth headsets and would push the limits on distance.

i have same issue while using mostly at time the svoice app... thought it was a defect but sounds like a app on the most part

Omg thank you so much. Was blowing my mind how music/video, sound just fine. While S Voice kept cracking "manly used it when phone was away on charger" kept cracking. Then I put it in my pocket while standing and sound just fine.

Very low volume/sound...

Hi guys my gear is suffering from very low sound volume from the speaker, I can hear it its just very faint. It used to work fine, here is my set up ...stock NA3 which I have since downgraded to stock mk7 I also downgraded the gear manager and have performed multiple resets nothing seems to help. Is my only hope to send it to Samsung? it works, i just can't hear the bloody thing!

Did you get water in it?
I don't think so though but I guess it's possible. ... It's in for warranty repair at the moment, I will update when I get it back. On a side note I find myself really missing the convenience of staying in touch with the world at the flick of the wrist, after having a smart watch I can't imagine myself ever not owning one.

Okay, I called Samsung last Friday morning and by Saturday morning they had sent out the return envelope... Posted Monday morning and have just received a brand new watch and cradle back from them! So 6 days in total from 1st contact to new watch on my arm, THANK YOU VERY MUCH SAMSUNG. :thumbup:

Do you happen to have the contact information for them? Mine is doing the same thing. I don't think it's a water issue either. Thanks a million

I think I may go to best buy and mess around with their watches and compare sound levels. See if it's normal to be lower or if mine is just low. I feel they should have included the speaker on the actual strap facing you (opposite the camera).

Maybe some funk got in the speaker hole or the speaker itself got inverted somehow.

I blew some compressed air into the speaker and it seems to be louder now.
Hope this helps someone else in this position.

Netflix voice out of sync.

I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue with their G Flex and if there is a simple fix? The voice is just a hair off, mostly when using any blutletooth ear piece or headset. It is even off a tiny bit when it's coming through then internal speaker.
It may be me being a little OCD, but it's driving me nuts and never had these issues with any other phones. Just recently switched from a Note 2.
Is it a weaker blue tooth in this or something else?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I haven't noticed anything, I'll try pairing my phone to my Bluetooth speaker tonight and see if I have the same issue.

It's only on Netflix though, so hopefully you have a subscription. It don't happen on anything else but Netflix. Wonder if I should try contacting them about it.
YouTube works fine, movies downloaded work fine... I don't get it.

I've seen this via Bluetooth with both my Noisehush and Arctic headsets. Only while watching Netflix.

This is happening to me as well and is annoying. It's like watching a old karate movie. Lol. As of now I just use my wired headphones.

It's only with this phone and only with Netflix. Wife and daughter have G2's and they are perfect. Wonder why Netflix don't play nice with the Flex? Hopefully it is just a bug fix, but enough of us need to complain.
If not fixed, gonna trade this phone in sooner than anticipated.
Watch a lot of Netflix.

I called Netflix and they were no help at all. T-Mobile tech women Alana was very nice and made a trouble ticket. She's calling me back Monday morning. She told me to call LG. I called LG and spoke to a guy named Nizo and he wasn't that helpful but said he will forward it to a higher up tech deapartment. He aked if I had a LG headset and then said it could be connection problems. I was about to say I'm not with Sprint anymore. lol I told him 20 people on xda are having the same issue with different bluetooth headsets. I told him that they will all be calling him so do it. I ended the conversation telling him one of the reasons whey I got the LG Flex is because of the Netflix promo and if the problem isn't fixed quickly then I might get another manufactures phone.
My Samsung wired headphones don't have the issue.

Seems to just be with Netflix for me. Both the WWE network and YouTube play nice with both headsets i have.
