Have you considered if it's a hardware issue? Intermittent issues can be hardware. It might explain why no matter the ROM you have this common audio cutout problem. I just had my phone warranty serviced because whenever I would record audio or audio and video upon playback I would get these weird audio artifacts like popping and static sounds. The tech told me they resoldered the audio pins to try and correct the problem. It is now fixed btw. (The same repair had them replace the proximity sensor too but it seems to me they actually replaced the entire main board b/c my board serial number is different. To my understanding the proximity sensor is a module and the audio chip is soldered onto the main board.) Would warranty service be an option for you? If not, there is a good tear down guide on iFixit.com and others on Youtube.

yes i have took into consideration it might be hardware issue. but it makes no sense because i also repair cell phones that there is 3 different speakers in a cell phone how is it that all of them would cut out at the same time when they all have different hookup spots and y would it come back with a reboot every time.. and then randomly shut off sound again..
anyway thanks for your time reading and replying to me greatly appreciated if u find anything else out be sure to like me know thanks again

Flash the stock firmware and if you still have the problem it's most likely hardware.

So I convinced my aunt to get the nexus 4 a while back. Unfortunatly its now not able to make calls correctly. Everything works on the phone without an issue just that There is no sound incoming or outgoing without having to put it on speaker mode (while in a call). This is a already know issue but there is not true way to fix it. We got around it by install the aplication called soundabout and unchecking something about the headphones. That got It to work... for a while. Now it is not working and am going to have to have to downgrade it back to 4.2.1? I read that was the only way. But I wanted to find a real solution. Or at least a reason as to why it happens to maybe figure out a solution?
Are you on 4.2.2? If so, you need your radio baseband upgraded to .48.
If that's not the case, then it could be a hardware issue.

there are a few ways to fix this. technically its not broken, they want you to use the newest baseband/radio, since it disables lte. easiest way is to flash the .48 radio, which was already stated. there is also a method that involves editing a certain file(found in the original dev threads).

When she brings me the phone ill have a look at it. Thank you for the replies. Ill probably upgrade her baseband seeing as how she doesnt need lte. I flashed the 4.2.2 images available on the google developers website. All of them. Do those images comes with the baseband that is needed? It came with the radio, recovery, and a few other things... I forgot.

Total Noob here. I have a GS4 (Canadian Rogers Model i337m). When flashing CM 10.2 I wiped dalvik cache, system, data, internal storage, and cache (to get all the samsung stuff off my device) and formatted data. After flashing, everything worked perfectly EXCEPT there is no audio from anywhere. No systems sounds, no notification sounds, no music (headphones don't even work), absolutely nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've been racking my brain all day trying to figure something out. Thanks.
Stock firmware?
sent from my mobile device
Ive got the same issue, I was running OMNI rom until i got fed up of the phone powering off on its own. I decided to flash back to stock rom with odin then flash CM11 nightly. Thats about when I lost sound. Not only do I not have sound, the phone freezes up every time I use an app ( even dialer ) which requires sound. I've since tried flashing back to stock again in Odin, even trying different stock firmwares. I've still got the issue and the phone is basically useless as a phone without sound... Please help. Is this a modem issue? If so, how to I flash a new modem that will work, and doesn't flashing stock replace the modem anyway? Could this be a bootloader issue? I've been flashing roms and playing around with android for a while but I'd still consider myself a noob.
Same
I got the same thing here, No music plays at all, My phone completely froze when someone tried to call me. also complete noob at this stuff.
I did find a couple ROM's that were i337m 4.3. But none did anything, but did the same thing. All had no audio at all. I also get screen flashing a lot (That could just be my water damage)
Wouldn't mind finding an answer for this either!

You might wanna try flashing a new kernel. That usually fixes Wifi issues at least.

Hi, guys im having some issues and would like some expertise. Okay so i have an s4 the model is m919v but the model is unrelated to the problem. I was running custom roms and have been for a few months and i have a phone that has a locked sim. I heard from someone that i can flash an older version of my modem and get the service menu to unlock... point is i did it and it didnt unlock BUT THATS NOT MY ISSUE. I decided to then revert to stock because my phone was being really glitchy after i tried the unlock. Now i restored my phone and got a custom recovery installed a custom rom that was working flawlessly before is now also being glitchy the same way after i tried to unlock it,
These are some glitches im experiencing:
1) phone app is taking a long time to load and it doesnt type in numbers fast
2) when i call someone it just freezes and i cant go to the call screen
3) no notification sounds coming from my phone it just vibrates but doesnt ring
and im sure a few more
IM SURE THESE HAPPENED AFTER I WENT INTO THE SERVICE MENU AND TRIED TO UNLOCK MY DEVICE.
Someone please tell me what i can do to fix this because ive already reverted to stock once.
EDIT: omg MY CAMERA ISNT WORKING EITHER! PLEASE SOMEONE HELP IM SCARED

Hey after i flashed the old modem and was being glitchy i extracted the new 4.3 modem and flashed that but it was still glitchy so then decided to go full 4.3 stock and then i have the problem again ill try maybe flashing another modem hopefully thatll fix it
EDIT: ITS FIXED! THANK YOU all i flashed stock but it dindt work i had to flash stock firmware 2 TIMES THEN EVERYTHING IS WORKING PERFECT
OK so there's a bit more to it than that but I will try my best to explain,I recently picked up my s4 1337m and decided to root it,all went well so I decided to install cmod11,again all went well but I wanted to go back to to stock so I flashed a recovery in odin and now I have no sound,cannot make calls,cannot recieve calls because the phone lags for awhile and I also cannot update to 4.4 kitkat because when I do the phone is really slow and does not like to respond so I have to go back to 4.2.2.I asked a friend who knows way more than I do and he said it sounded like a modem problem so he found me a modem online and I flashed it,however the phone is in the same state as it has been for two days now.I don't really know what else to write other than the process went like this:I rooted the phone,installed cm11,tried to go back to stock and am now in this situation.I now wish I had never attempted any of this and only want my phone back to the way it was but I am losing hope .I did find a thread on here where the person just kept flashing the stock rom and the sound and everything came back after a few tries but this has not happened for me,please if anyone has any ideas I am open to trying anything.If I did not provide enough info please just ask and I will do my best to answer.I did trip knox if that matters I just hope all is not lost and someone who knows more than me can help.I should add when I put my sim card in I can still text and get texts just cannot call out and I also have no wifi.So in closing I thank anyone in advance who can help me get this phone working again.I should also add it is locked to Bell

Hello and thank you for taking the time.
I recently gotten this message popping up everytime I try to use the camera on my S4.
"Can't connect to camera". I'm not sure why this is happening, so I thought maybe perhaps it had to do with the camera itself
so I went ahead and got the camera part replaced and got a new camera and it still shows this :'( I spent a lot of money getting this new camera part and I still get this message.
Can some one please help me? I sincerely ask because I am losing hope.
I am currently running a PAC-MAN ROM
Thank you again!

I'd recommend Odin back to stock. If the camera works then you know it was a software issue with your ROM. If not, then you most likely have a hardware issue.
Or if you you think that is too extreme, just try reinstalling your ROM first.

Thank you so much for replying. I am sincerely grateful.
The front camera works just fine. Its the rear camera.
I have wiped and installed my ROM into the phone hoping that'll work but nothing. I also tried another ROM still nothing.
What you have suggest though about using ODIN to go back to stock ROM I shall try
Is there anything specific I need to do to go back to stock ROM for the s4? I have i337m and don't have the original ROM.
It's been 4months since I last did all this so I'm a bit in need of refreshing.
Thank you again friend

You'll need the odin tar file specific to your i337m phone. Unfortunately, I'm on i337 so I'm not sure which one you need.
I guess start with determining what base you are on. Should help you find it easier. This link will help with that..

Sounds like a hardware issue then. (Had it been a driver issue, the stock samsung firmware that you installed on it would have solved that issue)
You mentioned you just got a new camera. Did the camera work after it was installed? If you took it to a store, maybe it's still under warranty and you can take it back. If you replaced it yourself, maybe the something came loose. Try taking it apart and making sure it's still connected. If it was an after market camera, maybe you need different drivers?

Do you know where I can get the drivers for the camera on the s4 i337? I double checked everything after taking it apart and yet nothing. If it's an actual hardware issue I guess I can't do anything about it :'(. Actually my warranty is voided due to rooting. Thank you very very much for trying though

The Samsung camera drivers would be built in to the stock image. I just threw in the driver suggestion in case you replaced the camera with another brand.
I wouldn't worry too much about your warranty being void due to rooting. It's one thing if you bricked your phone because you were trying to flash something you shouldn't have and then try to get it replaced under warranty... That's wrong.
By Odin back to stock you put the phone back into the state it was when you first received it. If the camera is still not working, I would try to get it fixed under warranty. (unless of course it broke from a fall or a swim... then you'd be out of luck)
