[Q] Does your external speaker crackle? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I've noticed this mainly when playing Max Payne and GTAIII. Of course, these are both Rockstar games. I can not reproduce the crackling under any other circumstances so far. Playing youtube, angry birds, and Skype are all fine. It's just those more intensive games that crackle.

mine is fine on GTAIII.. I just wish I could get the volume louder..

I get no volume on GTA and can't even run most hd or new games. Sucks.!

Delete the game cache and re download the game. It worked for me...
But I do get some crackling even when using the speaker during calls.

It crackles for me too when I play GTAIII but I only installed it to see how well it ran

Both games crackle for me as well. Those are the only ones that do so far. Shadowgun sounds perfect, all the birds games, cut the rope, wheres my water, drag racing, to name a few that dnt have sound issues.

Experience crackling here too with Max Payne.

Looking for a Game

I figured i just make a new post since i tried searching and I'm getting no luck either that or not entering the right search info. Is there a game like Crash Bandicoot Nitro Kart 3D (the one that is on the iPhone and Ipod touch) doesn't have to be the exact racing game just uses the same controls using the g-sensor ex. tilt phone forward is the gas, tilt phone right vehicle goes right and so forth. I know there has to be one with all the other g-sensor games out there. If there isnt then whats taking so long!

Games, managed to run by Shift

I offer to post here games, which can be played on HTC Shift.
I managed to run:
1. Fallout/Fallout 2 (Only in Win98 comp. mode, and res 640x480 and colors 256)
2. DeusEx ( quite playable, but can couse overheat, IMHO)
I can ran Age of Empires III on lowest settings (only two teams skirmish, and a little lag - but playable). The same with rise of nations Rise of Legends (lags a little, but playable)
Counter Strike 1.6 and CZ, in software mode - but only with two or three players
And at last: Super Mario 64, it run very smooth
Typing of the dead works great too with no lag and ESPSXE Works great with settings on high

emulators, man, emulators.
Gpolice also works super fast, Nightmare Creatures is also great once you learn how to use the shift's small keyboard. I also play Silent Hill 4 The Room with 3d analyze running and most scenes works blazing fast it slows down sometimes once alot of ememies r on screen.
Quake 3 is running pretty well and its my favorite game
Moorhuhn series runs great with touchscreen
and LiveForSpeed can be controlled via Gsensor (like Ipad) if you are in WinXp
WorldOfGoo
Online games http://lunchtimers.com/
Flash game http://home.scarlet.be/~bbonte/factoryballs.html
I tried Warcraft 3 and it goes nicely
I got Star Wars Battlefront working!

Google Music

how are you guys with google music invites experiencing the playback with the app with the 3D?
I feel like if I am in my car at all then I have streaming problems on songs that aren't cached, where I pretty much cant listen to my music because it is buffering slower than it takes for the song to play.
Just wondering what others are experiencing.
Yeah pretty much the same thing for me.
Sometimes I can get by with 3g but other times I'll have to turn on 4g. All my music is on Google Music though so it can be a little annoying.
and its also weird because i get by just fine with pandora, which is also streaming music.
Works fine for me.

Working great for me. Though I do use 4g all the time anyway. I found one spot where it cuts out a bit when I drive through, but overall it's been excellent. (Also, I have caching turned off just to note.)
Google music streams at a higher bitrate possibly....n you should consider the make available offline option if you are taken planned trips......
Plus its a beta so it may be growing pains
Bussin Caps n 3D
I've found it is completely dependent on my data speed. In areas with 4G or good 3G speeds it works great. In areas with marginal 3G it's pretty painful to listen. In those areas I usually just pause the song and let it buffer to 100% and then start playing again (meanwhile it seems like it starts buffering the next song).
Works fine for me on 3g. Streaming 45min-1hr at a time on my commute to and from work. It always lags a little starting the first song, bit once its playing I'm golden.
From the 3rd dimension in wireless...
I feel like it's totally unreliable, one minute it plays fine, the next it's a streaming choppy piece of crap. I can't wait for google to get on their **** with this, and fix it. Then they could remove the beta label, but knowing Google, that could be years away...

Fruit Ninja lagginess

So, every game plays great on my Photon, with the exception of Fruit Ninja THD. For some reason, it lags horribly, even with minimal apps running in the background. Anybody else?
It's odd, because really this is the ONLY place where I see any performance issues with the phone.
other than occasional lag, it plays fine
Well, right, precisely: the game lags (for me, more than occasionally). And strangely enough it's the only game that does. I play it on my Asus Transformer and there's zero lag.
Just noting it because it's a bit strange that this one Tegra 2 game would lag this badly. Oh well, not a biggie.
Try the non hd version?

I think it's the in-built ads that cause this lag. Sometimes the game becomes unresponsive and I have to wait a few seconds before the ad shows up and I can back out of it.
Interesting thing i did when my heapsize is above 42 it does not lag at all, i used 64 abd 80 had no issues now back at 42all i get the occastinal lag and it runs slower

audio from earphone sounds like muffled / clogged only when playing games

i have weird issue with the audio when using earphone
when i play game, the audio are muffled, kinda like when you got water in your ear and the weird thing is, this only happen in games.
this didnt happen in youtube and music which is really weird, everything works normal here.
also when i press recent apps and then back to the game again, the audio quality return to normal, but only last for few seconds and then become muffled again.
Anyone experiencing this?

Yes facing the same issue.
I haven't faced such issues. Have played PUBG and Asphalt 9 so far. Will update this reply if I face such problems. Probably just a bug.

No I'm on 9.6.14.0. So it's a software issue after all. I tried playing games like Batman:EW, Asphalt 9 and the lot again after reading this post. No dip in audio quality whatsoever.
Facing the same issue
Yeah. Exactly. I am also facing the same issue. It happens only in games. I tried PUBG and Asphalt 9. Audio is fine in music and video players. It happened after the last update 9.6.18.0.
Same issue here.
Sometimes I also hear some kinda static noise too the in-game voice chat is not that bad but other than that all the other in-game sounds are messed up. ?
interesting find today , under additional settings ,there is a ear buds mode , tried two earphones , one brandless , other one Westone both not detected , tried mine AKG headphones finally detected ,weird i think the type of male jack has something to do with it to work properly?

It's a 9.6.18.0 specific bug as far as I've seen on the forum. Can anybody confirm using 9.6.18.0 and not facing any audio issue? I miss PUBG
