I have a completely stock AT&T Galaxy Note and it's doing a strange thing where it has no audio. I can't get sound at all from most of it, headphones, speakers, nothing. On bluetooth it works, though. If I try to play any audio files, youtube videos, or anything with audio it won't play it. Google Music errors out, saying I can't play the file, Youtube locks up, and anything else requiring audio just hangs as well. When I'm on bluetooth it works but is still unstable. It's like the sound driver is all messed up. I don't know if it's hardware, since when I attempt to play, it isn't just playing silently, it won't even attempt to play. It happened on 4.0.4, and I just updated it ot 4.1.2, and it persists.
Strange right? I've heard mention that a kernel can fix it, but I'm not sure where to begin.

If you are stock, and have made no modifications, try a hard reset and reinstall your programs one by one and check the audio after each program install. Maybe a program you installed is causing your issues.
Good luck.

Every after a hard reset the problem persists. I flashed CM10.1 and it happens there too.

I updated my phone to the new Jellybean, and everything works great except for one issue, which is a major one in my case:
I have an '11 Corolla with Bluetooth which has always worked great for me. It worked fine with my phone when it was on ICS. Everything came through the care stereo just fine. With JB, it works with some things, but not with everything like it did before. Phone calls still work fine, the stock music player works fine, and PowerAmp works fine. Problem is, that's the only things that still run through my car audio now. I listen to a lot of audio books on my commute to and from work. The app I have always used for this is Mort Player. Now, all I get when the bluetooth is on is silence. I have found this to be true with every other app I have tried as well. The music player in Motocast doesn't work. Google navigation doesn't work. I've also tried numerous other apps as well like Smart Audio Books, Akimbo, CoPilot, none of them work through the Bluetooth any more.
When I upgraded to JB, the only modifications I had made to the phone was rooting it, and I converted my Power Toggles app to a system app using Titanium so that I can use it as a one-touch switch for my GPS. However, before upgrading, I converted Power Toggles back to a standard app. So other than root, it was completely stock. I haven't found much useful information for this issue, probably because JB isn't widely installed on most RAZR's, but it is a little irritating. I've tried everything, including doing a complete factory reset, but it's always the same.
If I play another app while the stock music player or PowerAmp is playing, then the sound will come through mixed, but not on it's own. Another thing I noticed is that before, my stereo would just display a blank screen when something was playing, or "Pause" if nothing is playing, but now, it displays the name of the song that the stock player or PowerAmp is playing. If you pause it it on the phone, it continues to display the last song played. It only says "Pause" if you press the pause button on the car stereo.
Has anyone else had issues with their bluetooth audio with JB, or know of a fix for this issue?
EDIT: As an added note, I deleted the pairing from my car stereo before doing the factory reset, then re-paired the phone after the reset. Still the same result.
Same sort of issues
Well I could have tried to delve a little deep into this issue, as when ever i tried to pair my phone and send files to my fiance phone it would just not do anything and the issue of showing the same song that was last played shows up in on my sony ericsson blue tooth M600 as well.
But for now i am just complete stuck at the issue that i accidently pressed gsm band selection to USA or the gsm patch. which has caused my phone to just ignore the network completely now network is working.
I would suggest you should try to root and install safe strap 3.11 and then install a leaked jelly bean custom mod it might help but just check the details first and if you are not sure with any of the process let me know before trying. I had my share of issues so I can help you answer those before you try and make a mistake.
For now I am downloading unbrick and will see if i can get this phone to ICS and work again from there.
thanks
From my understanding, once you have upgraded to JB with the leaked OTA, you can't go back to ICS. I'm assuming that is because there has been an update to the bootloader. As a result, I'm hesitant to install any type of bootstrap because I'm not sure if the currently available ones (like Safe Strap) will be an issue and possibly brick my phone.
I have a problem with my rooted Galaxy S3. I'm running CyanogenMod and all of a sudden I noticed that my music would only come out of one ear. I tried my headphones on my computer, and they work so it isn't the headphones. I decided to play both Google Play Music and Apollo at the same time, and then it works. I can't just use one of those apps, I have to use both. Then I tried Pandora, it only comes out of one ear. Is there a setting I might of accidently hit that would cause this?

Hey everyone. I'm in desperate need of help. I'm wondering whether my earphone jack in my phone is just broken or this is some sort of software issue. I either can't find anything about this problem anywhere else or I'm just searching the wrong keywords.
My international SGS3 with the latest nightly version of CM11 recently started having this weird problem where I would start music playing in Apollo, PlayerPro or Rocket Player (does it in all of them) and there was no sound coming through the earphones at all. I then discovered that when I pressed my home button and minimised the app, the music started playing. However, if I touch anything (status bar, open another app) the music stops immediately until I put it back to the home screen. Music works fine when playing music through the loudspeaker, and I've tried many different pairs of earphones.
I've seen strange stuff where the music can't play in the background but never that it can't play in anything but the background. Will I buy a replacement earphone jack or is there something I can do to fix it without taking my phone to bits?

It seems to be something to do with the newest CM11 build...
Make a nandroid backup, flash another AOSP/Sammy's rom (i recommend this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2603155 )
and see if the problem continues

It wasn't working before I updated it and it still isn't working. Why is no one else having this problem with CM11?

Yes i have the same problem, also i had it with stock ROM 4.1.2 but i managed to fix it with the balance between L and R. But the option is not available anymore. So i think there is the problem somehow

So do you think it will be fixed? I think I'm going to flash my phone back to stock . Not liking this problem.
I have tried googling but it does not really give a direct answer.
I have a rooted galaxy s3 with Resurrection remix which I love, but I am experiencing some problems with audio. Initially, audio would not really play out of headphones unless I let the audio play out of speaker and then put my headphones back in again. After downloading Soundabout to help with this, it seems now that audio only plays out of my headphones when I use the Google play music widget on my homescreen and do not lock the device, if I try to enter the google play music app whilst I am listening to something, the music instantly stops coming out of my headphones but then continues if I go back to homescreen again. This is also the same it seems with Sound cloud. I have seen some suggestions, one of which is to do a factory reset but I would deeply rather not do this, is there any other method of fixing this? Audio works but it is rather temperamental and seems to only work when doing having it in a certain way. I have heard about an app called Viper4android, but I have not actually tried it yet.
A side note, but it is not priority to fix at the moment, I am also experiencing a shorter battery life then when I had my stock touchwiz rom and also my phone seems to get hotter at the bottom (like it would in an intense game) but when I am just on the homescreen using it a lot with a fair few apps open and doing a lot, is this normal on this rom? It kind of makes me fearful about using the rom too much in case I somehow damage my phone. Anyway, my main concern is the audio problem but if anyone can answer that as well that would be nice.
Apart from these problems, I am loving this rom and would really like to keep it as the performance is phenomenal compared to my stock samsung rom. Please help so that I do not have to go away from this brilliant rom because of some problems.
Simliar issues
I'm having very similar issues with CM11 on 4.4.2... Although my issue is that my headphones occasionally stop working and only work when I open Google Now... very weird. I have to reboot to get it right again. Haven't figured out how to replicate the bug yet.
So this is a little hard to explain.
***EDIT: ITS ANY APP THAT USES INTERNET FOR AUDIO THAT COMPLETELY STOPPED BLUETOOTH***
I tried to use youtube to play a song over bluetooth and it completely locked up the app and I had to force close ON THE NEW PHONE AND OLD PHONE
AND NOW IT JUST MADE THE PHONE RESTART BY ITS SELF
Is this a rom problem?
The other day i was trying to listen to some music using a cracked version of spotify that I've used for over a year with no problem. The audio randomly stopped working, so I tried to just use the stock music player because I was going to an area where I didnt have any service anyway. The stock music player wouldn't work. I made sure it was playing by looking at the seek bar and it would sometimes start at 0:01, then jump to 0:05 and so on but no audio was coming through. The only way to make system audio work again, is to completely restart the phone. I uninstalled spotify, and the problem never came back until I reinstalled spotify with a different version, hoping it'd fix the problem. It hasnt. So, I decided to use a different phone but the same model phone, rooted, with the same rom, and it did it again. ON A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PHONE. I don't know what happened, but even on a clean flash, with no other apps installed, spotify kills my bluetooth and system audio.
What the hell is going on?
The android version is 4.4.2, and it's a stock rooted deodexed rom.
