[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthEwok:
If this is happening once you go into Kodi it may be worth looking at the system settings for audio output, try changing the number of channels down to 2, try turning off audio passthrough and also try turning off the options that say something along the lines of my receiver supports... I know there's 2 of them but I'm not near my fire to confirm the exact options. I had a similar issue when my fire TV which was connected to my Amp which does support Dts etc was moved to my bedroom TV which doesn't support those options directly. turning them off the fire TV played sound on my TV correctly....

Edit: I fired up my AFTV the exact options to try turning off are under system setting's, audio output.

Turn off

Enable audio pass through

Dolby Digital (AC3) capable receiver

DTS capable receiver
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
That's exactly what I said. But for me it is the TV, cec being the precise culprit. On my TV it manifests a little different--no high pitch whistle. It will play audio then cut out for a split second every 8 seconds.

If I turn on the TV first it plays fines. Of course this doesn't apply to sleep. So I ALWAYS need to turn on my TV then plug in fire TV or do a reboot. Incredibly annoying...and I too use and have used many many devices over the years with no such issue.

My pessimistic theory is this will become more common. I have a 42" TV collecting dust due to lousy cec support. It works with apple TV and roku but ps3 and fire TV either display no picture or the picture flashes on & off.

Someone sent me a link for an adapter that might fix the issue but I haven't looked into it. If I find it I'll share it here.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr@bunsen:
I'm pretty sure it's not your TV either. My rooted FireTV box is connected to a new Yamaha rx-v475 and I watched several episodes of Star Wars Clone Wars on Netflix with perfect 5.1 DD+ and then the sound suddenly changed to the tinny whistling audio identical to the youtube clip earlier in this thread. I interrogated the input signal and it reported first 192KHz PCM 2 channel and then subsequently repeatedly flashed no signal and I just got static. Rebooted the FireTV and everything was fine again, 48KHz DD+ 5.1 channel. It's definately the FireTV, somehow the audio output is failing intermittently.

Note, this is not the first forum that this problem has been reported in, just google "tinny sounding fire tv" (I can't post links due to being a new XDA member - if Aug 2013 join date is new?!?)
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twqwctf:
Thanks for the info. I'm the original poster of this thread.. Today was watching Bosch - Amazon's original series. Audio issue was happening. So I rebooted which I usually do to fix the thing. After reboot resumed Bosch directly. Again audio issue immediately. WTF man. :(

Outcome?

hi what was the outcome of this as I too am having the same problem with two aftv. Cheers
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asembler666:
Same issue. What was the resolution?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twqwctf:
They sent an email to me. I tried everything they suggested, except for factory resetting. I'm not performing a factory reset. I have two Fire-TVs. This isn't an isolated issue.

There was their email. I haven't re-contacted them yet.

"I am writing this e-mail to follow up on the ticket created on the Fire TV's issue.

These are some of the troubleshooting steps that our technical team has come up with:

Please try to set the sound settings to Dolby Digital Auto, Dolby Digital Off, Dolby Digital Optical, Dolby Digital HDMI, and see if the problem persists on all settings.

You can also try to factory reset your Fire TV:-

Here are steps:

A factory reset will remove any content you've downloaded to your device. You'll be able to download your Amazon purchases from the Cloud after registering the device again.

Any in-app items may be lost during a factory reset. Please check with the app developer for more details on their in-app policies before completing a factory reset. If you have parental controls enabled on your device prior to the factory reset, you will need to turn them back on once the device is re-registered.

To reset your device:

1. From the Home screen, select Settings

2. Select System, and then scroll to the bottom of the list.

3. Select Reset to Factory Defaults, and then confirm you want to reset your device.

Then try to check the Fire TV.

If you face the same issue, please feel free to contact us:- "
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mayhemoli:
I had the same issue... basically high pitched digital artifact anomaly accompanying sound -definitely a problem with the hdmi and the quality going over the cable... I switched to 720p 60hz and got rid of yhe problem. My TV is an old panasonic viera 1080i - I believe the problem to be with the signal quality being too high for the TV. No issues with the sound from optical out from th aftv by the way. So you could just upgrade get some great speakers - tos link in and happy days!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr@bunsen:
Gave up with mine, never solved the audio issues. Have an Nvidia Shield Android TV box now with no audio problems, so was definately the Fire TV box.

Same Issue

Sounds like this has reached a dead-end. I too am experiencing this. However, it was fine for a long time and JUST started happening to make this even stranger. Anyone think something went wrong on their end; with the streaming? I just don't get it.. And just now, I put it on again as I am typing this, and I hear NO SOUND coming from the content. Only the menu sounds are there. I'm going to call Amazon and what the hell is going on.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viperise152:
I have the same issue randomly since the last update. The only fix is to unplug the Fire TV. It has been fine for awhile since I did it last.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cloudane:
Yes! Same issue. I wasn't even sure how to Google it. It's like a tinny raspy sound... to me it seems like the kind of noise you'd expect with an MP3 that had been compressed really heavily or something. It happens on my FireTV and my parents one too, and only occurs randomly. It never happens with any of our other 'smart tv' type hardware.

One interesting correlation is they're both Panasonic Viera TVs. I think mine's from about 2010, theirs is a bigger one from about 2011.

It's not cable quality or interference - HDMI is digital. It either works or it doesn't. If you buy "Monster" HDMI cables and the like then you're getting ripped off...

I suspect some kind of bug on one or the other that only manifests itself in combination. I'd certainly rather Amazon finds a workaround though (must exist as all other 'bricks' are fine on these TVs) as Vieras are quite expensive things to replace.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shelviah:
same problem

My parents have this same problem and it's so awful we thought the TV speakers were going out! Will buying a vizio soundbar fix this problem? I have ordered them one for Christmas and do not want to be disappointed by expecting a fix that won't happen!
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twqwctf:
Thanks for the replies -- I've gotten to the point now where I just live with it. I mean, if the problem crops up (which it does often) I just reboot the damn FireTV. I'm not happy with this but I'm not really willing to buy a new more modern TV or some other solution which would require $$.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sam Lowry:
Sorry to resurrect this thread, but it took me awhile to find it. I'm still having this issue with my v1 AFTV. I have it hooked up (via HDMI - very good cable) to my Pioneer receiver and Panasonic TV 1080p both circa 2010. Raspy vocals is an apt description. Seems to be worse with Amazon and Netflix streaming shows. Doesn't show up at all in other apps or Kodi. Anybody come up with another solution?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rokclimb15:
Same issue, also with a Panasonic Viera 1080 plasma. Restarting the FireTV temporarily fixes the problem.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twqwctf:
Yes, there is something with these Panasonic Viera TVs. I recently upgraded one of my Viera TVs to a Samsung and the problem has vanished 100% using the same FireTV.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rokclimb15:
There's an updated firmware for my TC-P50U1 that addresses this specific problem. I wasn't able to get it to apply with the Panasonic provided instructions. Their support team was useless in resolving the problem.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sudman:
I have this issue also with an old Panny plasma but my feed from the AFTV goes through a Yamaha av amp first. Rebooting the AFTV usually solves it for a short while but then comes back and either it will do this, or no sound at all or even worse just really loud static noise. I'm pretty certain that it's the AFTV that's goosed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uhguy:
First off, this has nothing to do with how to unlock the bootloader as I have done that many times. What I am unsure of is what that means in regards to my work email. I've yet to have an unlocked phone since I put my work email on my phone. My work email requires "device administrator" to be activated for my work email. Will the unlocked bootloader interfere with this or am I over thinking this whole thing?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lordgodgeneral:
I've got my work email added via an exchange account, it's unlocked and rooted. No issues with the email. Main thing for the device admin is to remote wipe the device if it gets lost or stolen.

Wondering how i can root my sony xperia 10 running ,1.6. I need to get to some deleted text messages and updating wipes everything out. Thank you.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] phoenixms:
Really interested in converting my at&t branded HTC One M8 to the Unlocked HTC One M8.

I've been reading up and making sure i'm correct in what I'll need to do to get there. I'm really not interested in keeping root, unlocked boot-loader, or s-off once I convert. I just want at&t gone and ota's from HTC.

I'll need to unlock the boot-loader, Root, and s-off my phone.

I'm under the impression that the at&t M8 shares the same MID with the Unlocked and Developer editions so i'll only need to change the CID?

After changing the CID to the unlocked edition from HTC I can run the official RUU from HTC to convert the phone?

Once converted I Have no desire to keep s-off or an unlocked boot-loader unless it would cause an issue re-enabling either.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Once s-off real simple,change cid to BS_US001 run the 3.28.1540.5 ruu and done.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] phoenixms:
So what about returning to s-on and locking the boot-loader after converting?

Will i receive OTAs from HTC?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Ive never had to return to s-on or relock bootloader to recieve otas from htc so from my experience Ill say not needed and will still get otas as long as have stock system and recovery wont be an issue recieving otas.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Neither a relocked bootloader nor s-on are needed to OTA.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] jball:
Stay unlocked and S-OFF just in case you decide to go back for whatever reason
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Agree. This gives you a lot more options, and no benefit to RELOCKED bootloader and S-on.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] phoenixms:
Used HTVDev to unlock boot-loader then Sunshine for s-off. Changed the CID to Developer edition and ran the HTC RUU for the unlocked/developer edition and haven't looked back. No at&t bloat to spoil the party. I'm probably going to miss out on the HD Voice but I don't care. Thank you guys for the advice.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
US Dev Edition should have VoLTE also. Look under Settings>Mobile data, and you should see an option for "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" at the bottom.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] phoenixms:
I don't see that option.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
If using my rom it has it,if on standard 3.28.1540.5 it will not have it. Thats an att feature,wont be on other builds I dont think ie euro/developer.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] phoenixms:
I'm using the RUU posted by HTC for the unlocked HTC One M8 for US Market "Brightstar"
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
You wont have support from stock developer edition for VoLTE
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] joker96:
So to install any other ROM like yours all that would need to be done is getting a new recovery and flash ROM? But if different rexovery it won't get ota?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
To install a custom ROM, custom recovery is needed,there are no ATT only based ROM's besides the one I released, all others are euro based unless completely stock cannot get ota's at all from carriers or manufacturer(HTC)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] joker96:
so what version is this cid from? and where can i get the ruu?and how do i change the cid?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Links are available on here as well as tutorials for changing cid if s-off the cid i used is for the us developer build which is same exact device as att variant.

Touchscreen problem!

Hey,

ich mach's mal auf deutsch, weil ich keine Lust auf die Übersetzung habe.. Seit ein paar Tagen und ohne jegliche Vorwarnung etc. funktioniert mein Touchscreen nicht mehr richtig. Es funktioniert ab und zu, wenn ich das Handy durch das Aufschieben des Gamepads entschlüssele und das auch nur mit viel Glück. Kann es sein, er nicht genug RAM zur Verfügung hat, ich einen falschen (Stock)kernel drauf habe (Lupus) oder einfach nur mein Touchscreen den Geist aufgegeben hat? Ich kann mir ehrlich gesagt nicht vorstellen, dass mein Touchscreen defekt ist, weil es ja ab und zu funktioniert. Es scheint mir an der Software zu liegen.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markphyton:
Ne ist unmöglich. Hört sich eher danach an das das flatband Kabel was hat ( Verbindung von Touchscreen mit Motherboard). Probiere es mal zu kalibrieren inden du die 2.3.0 Firmware neu drauf flashed. Und verwende einen Kernel der innerhalb der zip ist
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pombelli:
Habe es ausprobiert.. Mittlerweile funktioniert der Touchscreen gar nicht mehr :( Ich denke, dass das Handy so langsam den Geist aufgibt, zumal auch ein Riss im Screen ist, der wohl auch mit der Zeit dazu beigetragen hat, dass es komplett funktionsuntüchtig geworden ist. Werde mich wohl vom experimentieren mit dem Handy verabschieden müssen :D

Now, i'm gonna tell you what i did befor this problem and i thinks is the cause

I was going to do a root, just a root because i wanted to unistall some problems and i did root on another galaxy tablet it went well so i felt confident about this even tho i was about to lost my galaxy GT S7392 warranty (and i think i just did lost omg)

then it wen everything well, installed the binary, superuser, all fine at the first time. Then i check if its really rooted and the RootChecker says it isnt rooted. So... I repeated the whole progress, and i think is in this moment i make the mistake.

I installed the binary again and then i was going to the recovery mode after that and then... I couldnt went there in time and i saw the boot animation taking FOREVER! I decided to search for a solution, but i couldnt found anything!

Thanks for the help!

PS : No, i dont have a Customized ROM. Yes, i tried to do a Factory Reset by Recovery Mode when i could went there and did a Cache Wipe, restarted, and the boot stays the same. No, no one warned me about some kind of recovery.
