Headphone stutter, but only in one headphone? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
I'm in need of help again, I've had a strange issue as of late (since updating to 4.4) when I'm playing music through my headphones if I turn the volume up too loud the audio stutters in the right headphone and then cuts out, I've tried with 4 pairs of in ear headphones (Stock Xperia Z headphones, stock I9300 headphones, soundmagic e10, and seinnheiser CX-400 II precisions) all with the same effect.
I'm currently running the latest nightly AOKP (4.4) and MEOW Kernel 2.02.04 and have tried a variety of kernel/ROM combo's all with the same outcome, could it possibly be a hardware issue or is this a general 4.4 issue as of late? Because I can't seem to find any posts specifically about my type of problem.
Thanks in advance!

Its a cm11 bug I believe. Nothing to do with your hardware.
Try installing viper , that should help until there's a fix >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

[Q]Audio quality on GT-P1000?

Hello everybody,
I'm pretty new to this device since i have swapped it two days ago so I would like a question about audio quality.
With the stock rom I had pre-installed the audio quality was samsung standard: not good but at least audible.
I moved to another rom (Overcome 7 v 4.1.0) which kernel supports voodoo sound.
I was really shoked when i listened to a song for the first time: bass and mid-ranges were just fine as voodoo makes them while highest pitches (and voice too) seems like playing miles away from me: they get all muffled whitout any apprent reason!
I double checked it wasn't a problem of my headset plugging them into my galaxy s and listening to the same song flawlessly.
Did anybody experienced this problem too?
Install DSPManager and set the equalizer to your liking.

True, much better with that.
Speakers volume
I have the same Tab with Overcome 4.1.0. It is a low volume level of speakers for making or recieving calls. Do you know what a problem is?

LOL, that isn't a solution!
Audio should be clear before applying any other effects (dsp or equalizing).
Btw I finally got the solution: it was all fault of Samsung's crappy headset!
I replaced with another set from another brand and it all works like a charm now!
Mods, you can close this thread.

Headset MIC problems on CM 10.1 roms

I have problems with the headset mic when I have tried cm 10.1 roms. The other person can't hear me.
Same problem with bluetooth headsets, but here we also have other sound quality issues. Listen to music on Spotify is a big NO No.
Anyone else with the same problem? What headset work or does not work?

The default wired headset should be fine but the built in mic and Bluetooth mics are rubbish due to a few issues, in my experience Liquid Smooth is a bit better with the built in mic but the wired mic should be flawless on both.

[Q] Galaxy Ace sound problem.

Hi everyone,
I'm having a little problem with my Galaxy Ace lately. When I play music on it, it plays just fine through the speaker, no problem whatsoever. However, if I connect my headphones, the music is really weird/just not right. There is no bass and there's an echo.
Another thing: If I connect my computer's speakers (3.5mm audio jack as well), it plays the music just fine like through its own speaker.
Wat could be the problem here?
Aditional info:
Galaxy Ace rooted, no OC (stock 800mhz), CM10.1 20130513 from Maclaw.
I have no other problems whatsoever with the rom.
My friend has a nokia E series phone. When i tried plugging his headphones. I got the same problem. The sound gets muffled and only music can be heard. Try using a different earphone and see if that works.

Thanks for the tip, another pair of earphones seemed to work. Is there a reason why my Ace won't accept both Nokia earphones I tried?

[Q] Audio dropping volume?

I'm having this issue where the volume drops during song changes, or during quiet parts in a video. I'm fairly certain this is a known problem, but just wondering if anyone has found a fix.
I've tried different music players, different video players, different headphones, even a headphone amp and the problem persists. currently running P.A.C v3.0 but the problem was present also on TrickDroid v7.5

I think this happens in all phones, ipods, iphones and music players as what outputs high volume comes from audio file from the song or movie. There are programs in the internet the makes the audio files louder in a song or a movie. The problem is not the phone or roms. As any phone, it can't output high volume if the volume level in the audio file in a song isn't put to high levels of volume.
I agree with the op. I've got both the HTC One and the N4. The problem he's describing is present in the one but not the N4, same exact audio sources.

Maybe but I have experienced the same thing on all devices I have used for music. I think it depends on the songs but I might be wrong.
I can also confirm that this issue has been persistent on my One. Something that had never happened to my One XL, Nexus nor Desire. Not liking this at all!
Sent from my HTC One
I've never had it happen on anything except my One. On the stock ROM, it's fine, but any AOSP ROM (and I've flashed a lot of them) gives me this issue anytime I use headphones.
I can confirm this as well. Stock ROM seems OK but AOSP and cm based ROM have this problem
Bump!

I think HTC made the phone to lower the volume when the volume is way too high so you won't go deaf. An annoying "feature" that HTC has implemented in the phone.
Just an update on this. the CM nightly for today (6/20) contains a bunch of audio merges which hopefully will fix the audio fading issue. I'll report back when its available for download and I flash it

Just tried out the 6/21 nightly, and the audio fading issue is unfortunately still there.

Help audio volume drops
I am currently using the Avatar rom and have been experiencing the exact same problem. The volume will go down in music, audio books, and even on the phone. The problem is not consistent and has been driving me crazy ever since I installed this rom. I love the ROM and can't picture living without it. I can't figure out what exactly it is causing the issue, but if anybody has found a solution, I would love to hear it. Thanks in advance.
Has anyone tried flashing beats back onto their phone to see if that does anything?
Update- installed beats audio. It unfortunately didn't fix the problem.

Try updating your firmware to 2.24 and turn off Beats. This solved it. Although now I use higher volume to match what I had before with Beats turned on, the sound quality and bass is nearly equal or even better.

OK, so I'm pretty new to this whole thing. What would the steps be to upgrade my firmware to 2.24?

[Q] Continous hiss on headphone jack

Hi,
I have a continous hiss on my headphones when I play sound.
There is no sound when nothing is played but when I start music there is a continous hiss. The only possibility to increase volume to 70-90% untill the music drowns the hiss, but it never fades. It is independend of headphone or media player.
It started a while ago and became worse and worse. It does not happen when I use bluetooth.
I thought my headphone jack might be dirty but it looks clean und I tried to clean it with an eartipp, without luck.
Does anyone have a sugguestion?
Thanks a lot!

Solved volume+ responsible
Hi,
after using your idea i fugured it must be a software related issue and remembered that I used volume+. Embaressed not to have thought about that in the first place I deactivated it and all works good now.
Thanks again for your help!
