I just picked up this tablet today and I'm running TNT lite 2.2. I seem to be having issues with the sound now. It is coming out all staticy and crackling... When it happened the first time, I rebooted and it went back to normal. But now it has happened again 20 min later...
Anyone else experience this?

with fring, but that's about it... tnt2.2.1 here.
I had the same problem with the original one that I purchased with no new image put on it yet. I exchanged it and the new one is fine. BTW, I did notice that the sears employee marked it as having a sound problem so you didn't get mine.
I am as well
Having issues with the sound. At times when a sound is to be played, I hear a loud static noise. It only happens a few times. Also, when I plug in headphones, only the Right side is heard and not the Left. Any help??
For any sound issues, I would suggest going back to stock and trying it. I have had a lot of mod issues, but staticky sound is not one of them.
I have a sound issue where there is a loud static sound and its intermittent.. pressing any buttons seems to stop it. it goes away after reboot.
Return it! I had this issue with my first G tab. It got progressively worse over the course of 2-3 weeks, until I had no functioning sound. My new unit has not had this problem at all.
P.S.
any one picking up a refurb in santa cruz, ca beware...Sears employees asked 0 questions when I returned it
Any suggestions as to why speakerphone wouldn't be working? Or just return it and get a 3rd replacement? Having such bad luck with this phone for some odd reason. I want to like this device and I do but having to replace it for a 3rd time is starting to make me have second thoughts about keeping this device.
Reboot, check your sound settings, turn up the volume, play some music, call a friend. Still not work? I'd return that one as well. Your whole batch at AT&T may be bad.
has to be a bad phone my speakerphone is great
Don't get me wrong the Speaker is Great with Music just No one can hear me when I throw the phone onto speaker phone. Looks like I got another phone to return.
Had the same problem with my wife's atrix. Speaker just stopped working. Went to AT&T and they replaced phone with new one.
This happened to me too, the speakerphone use to work fine then a couple days ago no one can hear me at all. So annoying.
Hello everyone
So I've recently purchased a Nexus 5 and I really love how smooth the phone acts. I really love the new Hangouts integration and all.
But now people are complaining when I'm a phone call with them. Sometimes my microphone randomly lowers itself to the point people can't hear me. I then adjust my phone positioning in my hand and then they can hear me clear again.
It's not like I'm holding my phone upside down or something, just like a regular person. This problem tends to happen a lot when I'm laying down.
It's a 310K model so it's from one of the first batches.
Anyone having the same problem? I've Googled the problem a bit and people tend to think it's a software problem (something with the noise cancelation thingy). I don't want to return the phone unless I really have no other option.
Would you guys recommend me keeping the phone and wait for a possible fix? I've got this phone a week now and Amazon says I have till half of January to return it for a full refund.
Thanks in advance

I've the same problem+ signal loose randomly.
Phoned up google and tried to resolve the issues.
Now just received my RMA label via email and will receive my replacement phone soon
Hi,
I've the same problem with my 310K Nexus 5 (EU). I'm searching since some days but can't find any satisfying fix.
Today I got an answer from the Google support, they suggest to factory reset my Nexus 5.
I haven't done it yet, but I don't think this could fix the problem. I think I'll try it tomorrow and I'll report back asap.
Please let me know if you find any solution.

the ytold me the same thing(factory reset).
I said I've just did a factory reset...so then offered a replacement
Update: receiving a replacement phone the next days :fingers-crossed:
Hey guys i have bought one plus 7 pro few days back , i have been using the phone and frankly speaking i am in love with this phone . i have to say that this is the best phone i have ever used.
Recently i came with a problem that while i am on a call if i put the call on speaker, my voice not go the other side. The person on the other side cant hear me.
So i tried to do it with two phones side by side thinking that it might be some network issue or something might be wrong in other user phone, but still it was like that while on speaker the person on other side cant hear me.
If anyone can help me out of this it would be appreciable.
Thanks
Yes ! Had the exact same issue with my one plus 7 pro. Would also get weird sounding feedback when on calls. No solution to the problem. Ended up turning it in under warranty and got a new phone sent to store, picked it up on Friday and haven't had any issues with new phone. Can't replicate issue with new phone either
So, anyone else suffering from the weird sound bug? In essence, there is no notification sounds, ringing or alarms coming through, phone is not on silent and no active DnD mode. And normal media playback is as expected, speakers work fine as well, it's just alarms, ringing and notifications. It gets weirder tho, because if headphones are plugged in sounds can be heard but not when unplugged. Android 10, latest patch too and I'm really confused at this point so any ideas are appreciated. TNX
Hi I have the exact same problem, it occurred after installing the December patch, I tried to do more reset but the problem persists, I contacted google assistance and they told me they will let me know, were you able to solve this problem?
The only option is to wait for another update to correct the problem? Or possibly downgrade to android 9? With android 10 all the problems started including the whistle in the video recording
I opened a problem report on the google issue tracker. Sorry For my bad english.
Pixel 3a
Android 10
December patch
Please star it and comment if you have this issue. Thanks a lot.

Mine started doing this today. The funny thing is I used a bluetooth for my ear at work and switched to BT in the car when I left work. No ringing comes from the phone, but through BT I now hear the individual ringtones that I have set over car speakers BT and ear BT. It never did that before. Makes me think that using BT somehow caused it. Very odd. I went to Sprint store and let them poke around with it. Two employees had no luck. They stated that they had never seen this problem.
------------------------------
UPDATE. I was directed by Google to either mail it back (7-10 day turnaround-sure!) or take it to UBREAKIFIX like they did to "soopervoo." It was repaired yesterday in about 3 hours! They even offered a loaner phone for the time, but I declined. All is good in my Pixel 3a world again. Oddly, the phone continues to try to update playMusic every so often to the Nov update which is already on my phone.

Did you ever have any luck getting your sound fixed on your Pixel 3A?

Hello and happy new year! Unfortunately I have not found any solution, I wait for the next update, if it does not solve the problem I will ask for the replacement of the mobile phone. My suspicion is that the December update breaks the lower speaker.
I have similar issue like this for past 3 months, what ever ringtone I set, by default Google duo notification is ringing. But i can hear custom ringtone on whatsapp call.
I have a similar problem with a different phone brand. I tracked the issue to be related to enabling the automatic DND option which tents to not properly go away after it turns off. Sad that is the same on the pixel which I'm looking at buying...
This bug just started for my mom's Verizon Pixel 3a this week. It was working in early Dec 2019, but something recently broke. The call ringer sounds do not work, but YouTube audio does.
I did a full system reset where it temporarily fixed the sound, however, during the app updates, it reverted back to no sound.
Chatting with Google support wasn't useful. They just sent the standard bug report email.
If anyone has any suggestions, please advise.
Update
Called Google support and they redirected me to UBreakiFix to inspect and repair.
Took a few hours, but they replaced the speakers.
Looks like I had a bad unit but seems to be fixed now.

FYI, mine was a hardware (speaker) problem.
this 3a I have can play YouTube audio on the earspeaker, so I think that's normal, the ringer uses the bottom speaker right? next to the charging USB3 port, if I do a complete factory reset, that will not fix it?

Two factory resets did not work for mine. Mine was acting the same, bottom speaker was crackly, intermittent, and then went out completely.

I am here to pig pile onto the issue. Running the January patch and never getting OTA notifications (running Magisk), I finally sideloaded Feb and then March updates last week. Just a few days later, I was talking on speakerphone and it got all crackly for a few seconds and then quit. That's the last I heard of it. Safe mode, two resets and even a full factory flash didn't fix it.
Just went through diagnostics with Google support and the verdict is the same...take it to ubreakifix under warranty. At least the phone is still useable, unlike the first gen Pixel microphone.
Here is one more confirmation that there is definitely a problem with the Pixel 3a's bottom speaker. Mine cut in and out a couple of times and then died completely. My phone was four months old at the time, purchased directly from Google, and has always lived in an Otterbox Defender case and had never been dropped.
I contacted Google and they said I could send it in for replacement. And I said, "Hey - wait a minute! I bought my phone from Google so I'm supposed to get an advanced replacement!" So he wanted my IMEI and confirmed that, yes, I had that option. But I was concerned that both the agent and website confirmed that I would receive either a new or (most likely) refurbished device.
The Google warranty website said that I had the option of having the phone replaced by Google or going to a local ubreakifix shop, of which there are several in my area. I called them up and the guy I spoke to said it was a common problem on the Pixel 3a! And they had the part in stock.
Since my phone was in perfect condition, other than the speaker, I chose the ubreakifix option instead of having Google send me a, probably used, replacement. I dropped it off, went to get something to eat, and while I was eating, I was messaged that my phone was ready for pickup. I took a look at the paperwork for the repair and the repair cost to Google listed was about $80. I asked the gentleman how much the exact same repair would cost for a Pixel 3a that was not under warranty and he said $140! Damn! I priced the speaker part if bought directly from China on Aliexpress and it was less than $10 from most vendors.
A search of the Google support forums shows that many Pixel 3a owners have had their speakers fail. It's a problem that can't be missed because your phone never rings!
If it fails again under warranty, I will have the speaker replaced. If it fails again after the warranty period, I will order a replacement speaker from China and do my own replacement.
