After a certain amount of time, or opening a certain app, the phone will develop this annoying speaker pop on some screen clicks. I haven't figured out what causes it yet but it happens even when the phone is set to "total silence". A reboot always fixes it. I had my screen clicks enabled but have turned them off and rebooted and everything is fine now. If I figure out which app or circumstances cause it, I will post the fix.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] kongyang9o:
I'm having the same issue. Happens during app launch for pretty much all my apps.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Reboot fixes it temporarily. If you notice it happens after the speaker goes dormant. If the speaker is making continual sound it won't do it. Once to goes to make its first sound after sitting, it pops. Even does it on silent. Don't know what is triggering it yet.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] benjamminh:
Supposedly someone has done a FDR and no longer has the issue.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
I will let others try that first because it takes a couple hours to get everything back to the way I like it without root.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] Metfanant:
I have not experienced any kind of "pop" from my speaker at all...
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Do you have the JBL mod?
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] Metfanant:
Yes, but I've only used it for maybe 5-10 minutes total
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
The pop has not returned today and the only thing I did different is not hook up the mod. It may be that.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] shoeshine47:
Try disabling audio effects and rebooting.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Well that really wouldn't say much because a reboot fixes it every time by itself. Where is the audio effects setting?
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] jimig1:
I started noticing this in the Twitter app.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] shoeshine47:
Settings --> Apps --> Menu --> "Show system"
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] blynkofaneye:
I've noticed this as well. When scrolling through my FB or IG feed, any time a video starts playing (even with the sound defaulted to off), I hear a tiny lil speaker pop. It doesn't particularly bother me all that much, but I definitely noticed it.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] kongyang9o:
I was thinking about it the other day and noticed it sounds a bit like a static pop. Kinda like when you plug a guitar into an amp when it's on. Might be some sort of initiation for the speaker. As long as it doesn't affect anything else or causes damage, I'm not too bothered by it. Especially hearing that it's as widespread it is.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] MCN1SMO:
hey guys ive figured out what is causing it but the solution might be some sort of software patch.

its the act of connecting to a BT device and then streaming audio like XM/Google music ect. once you disconnect the pop/snap sound appears on all things that activate the speaker. the twitter pull down is the best thing to test this with but it happens on all sounds from the first time you play a song/video to changing a ring tone ect.

here is a video of the sound. ive tried it on both my cars BT, a bose standalone BT speaker, and even and old FM transmitter and all the BT devices cause the pop once they are disconnected.

[YOUTUBE]cHZ8jOQTj58[/YOUTUBE]

the reason why its happening is a little over my head but I was thinking something with DRM possibly?

another thing i discovered is it does not happen on the non Force regular Moto Z. I tested the exact same scenarios on it and it does no speaker pop

I was going to return my phone for another but this thread and a few others makes me think its a full on bug with the Force not a bad phone out of the box

ive tried a simple network reset clearing BT but that didnt work. before I try any luck with a factory reset or is it a waste of time?

[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] Metfanant:
Well it makes sense why I've never heard it then...I've have not had my phone connected to a Bluetooth device
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
I have confirmed today that it definitely is not "mod" related. I haven't had my JBL hooked up in 48 hours and there has been no pop. I drove to work today listening to music through my truck speakers using bluetooth. Pop is back. [MENTION=7650335]MCN1SMO[/MENTION] was right, it is bluetooth related. The only way out is to reboot. LAME.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
Just my two cents on the topic, I am not having this issue, however, I do use bluetooth daily, my phone has been on continuously for almost two weeks now. I work outside so use the JBL speaker and have my phone in my shirt pocket listening to music while working. I keep it at about 80% volume for battery life. I am averaging about 6 hours of listening a day.

Also I have my bluetooth connected to the work truck (Ford Sync) to and from work which includes a 4 hour commute home on Fridays and back on Sunday nights to the town I stay in during the week. I have yet to hear any kind of pop from either the JBL or device speakers.

Personally I keep bluetooth off when I am not connected to a device I am not sure if this has any effect or not but it could be worth testing if you are able to replicate the problem. I have been taking off the speaker when not using it as well, but have left it on a few days.

I do also remember reading about an issue with Pandora and bluetooth. I am not sure if Pandora is what you are using or not, if it is try something else and see if the problem persists. I stopped using Pandora a few years back when I was a mechanic and had a bluetooth adapter for a code scanner for cars. If I opened Pandora I would have to reset before the adapter would operate normally.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
It's there, you probably just haven't noticed it. Do you have screen clicks enabled? To test the pop, put your phone into full silent mode and then wait 5 seconds before touching anything on the screen. Listen closely in a quiet room and you will hear a click come from the speaker.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
Willl test when I get home after my four hour connected to bluetooth trip, and no I dont have screen clicks enabled.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
Still dont hear a click. Maybe mine is the defective one
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
Just a thought, is anyone else experiencing this while on prepaid? Not sure how that would make a difference but might be worth mentioning?
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Do you have a force or a regular Moto z?

That wouldn't matter.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
I have the force, doubted it would matter. maybe it is and I cant hear it. I tried it how you said. I know there was something about notification sounds so I played those from the settings, tried playing songs, if its there I cant hear it.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Someone mentioned the regular Z doesn't do it. I already sold mine so can't confirm.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
I meant prepaid not matter, I understand this seems to be force exclusive
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] Ace2cool:
Mine did it for the first time today. I connect to Ford sync in my truck, and has never done it until tonight. Scrolling through Facebook, every time a video auto played, it would click, even though there was no audio and the media volume was at minimum.

On the topic of Bluetooth, however, I do have a moto 360 first gen that's always paired, so that may be why I don't ever hear it. Possibly my watch was disconnected and I didn't know it, though people here are saying jt only does it with Bluetooth streaming devices. I'm wondering if it's all Bluetooth devices, not just streaming.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] bjines:
Mine also has the speaker pop. I notice it after I disconnect from a streaming bluetooth device.

Some devices I have tested it with:

Mazda3 2013 Grand Touring : Yes

Sharper Image Tower Speaker: Yes

Fitbit Blaze: No

I have a few more bluetooth devices I will try this with, I might consider doing a FDR to see if there is an app that triggers this or not.

I also have noticed that my facebook no longer generate any noises - notifcations or in-app - until I have disconnected from a bluetooth device and the speaker popping is there. So if I do not have speaker popping, I do not have facebook noises. If I have speaker popping, I have facebook noises. So I am also going to try uninstalling that and disconnecting it from a bluetooth device and seeing if that does antything. I doubt it, but it doesn't hurt to try.

With all of that said, it is definitely a software issue and not hardware so hopefully the first update they will fix this issue.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] LeeMullinsII:
Is anyone else experiencing this without any social media accounts?
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] bjines:
I just uninstalled Facebook and tried it, and it is still an issue.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] MCN1SMO:
has anyone tried a factory reset? im out of ideas other than waiting on a patch and wondered if its even worth the hassle. im just thinking because its not a hardware (issue since it goes away on reboot) maybe its worth a try

just wanted to see if anyone had tried that before I attempt it in vain
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] srgolub:
I think I may have discovered a fix that will hold us over until a patch is issued.

I use Twitter constantly and noticed the issue. If you go into Twitter settings: General -> Data -> Video Autoplay and change the setting to Do Not Play Video Automatically the problem should go away. At least it has for me so far.

I don't use the Facebook app but I'd imagine there's a similar setting there that can be changed.

Please post whether this method has been successful for anyone else.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] seh6183:
Wont help.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] AdmanAbou:
Did anyone ever find a solution to this? Phone is starting to slow down, so I'm thinking about doing a factory reset.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] jstowell:
I did a factory reset based on a recommendation from another forum. Seems to have stopped the problem.

I also spoke with a tech at Verizon who told me there have been several similar complaints. They are working on a potential software fix but it's hard to say when it will be ready.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] FligMupple:
For me, the speaker pop appears to have gone away after the recent OTA update.
[Moto Z Force Guides, News, & Discussion] kelgogo188:
Hello, I've just bought the moto z play recently, and every time I listen to a WhatsApp voice message where I bring it close to my ears to listen, there are these pop and crack sounds, I haven't seen any one mentioned this problem, as I don't use Bluetooth speaker, the problem should related to the build in speaker of the phone, any suggestions ? Or should I take it for a repair or refund! Thanks

I am able to control the front-facing camera's flash by using Tasker. Use the 'Set Light' function under 'Alert' in the actions list. In the light source menu, the flash can be triggered as a torch or as a momentary flash. 'torch-light0' is the constant-on until you set the value back to 0 and 'led:flash_0' in the momentary. Be careful testing it - the flash is really bright, lol. Root is required to control the light.

I must have read everything but the last word of the OP. Sorry. Hopefully, this info can help someone at some time...

Hey guys I just bought a Redmi Note 3 in UAE. After setting up the phone I updated it to the latest version.

Surprisingly the phone has no Theme app(icon). I always need to search in Google now to enter the theme app.

Can someone tell me how to get the theme app on my main screen. Thanks it's on MIUI 7.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
What rom is on the device?

Settings - About Phone - MIUI version.

Any chance you have a vendor rom?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] sahil sharma:
I don't think it's a vendor rom as it's official reseller of Xiaomi phones and not an import.

Still attaching the screenshot.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] corkiejp:
This miui thread might help? and another here.

Make sure you haven't moved it into a folder (tools folder by any chance) with other apps as well, because you can not delete the icon from the screen.

Themes can also be launched from settings - themes - get more

Hi, I've flashed many Roms and mods but I'm still noob about kernel so I created this thread to ask some questions, I know maybe I asked too much so excuse me,

-First, where is kernel saved(system, boot,..)? Everytime I update to a newer cm13 nightly, the kernel reinstalled to CM's kernel

-Sencond, what is the benefit of changing kernel?

-First, does changing kernel save battery, I flashed FlareM on cm13 and I notice the battery drain quicklier

Thanks in advance and sorry for my English

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] mgbotoe:
I must say, I am quite surprise that the note 7 is not trending in the t-mobile note 5 forum, as every new note series usually are before and after the announcement.

Safe to assume no one here is interested? Cannot justify upgrading? Or you simply moving to the s7 edge?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] rabilancia:

I'm holding out until we find out if the bootloader will be unlock able or not.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] kurrupt_1:
Pre-ordered mine!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] tnick84:
Already pre-ordered mine too. I think most us are preoccupied with checking our tmo account, email, and bank account for some sort of notification of shipment...at least I am lol I've already been to best buy twice to play with them. I thought the Note 5 was a beautiful device until I actually held the Note 7 in my hand. Hands down the most spectacular phone I've ever seen. None of the other manufacturers are even close to putting something together that could be compared to the Note 7. I can't wait to see the iPhone 7 so that I can point and laugh! But hey I'm very biased. I've owned Note 3, Note 4, Note Edge, Note 5 (S6 Edge + which is a N5 w/ no spen) and soon the Note 7
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Lordjish:
I too ordered mine. Black T-mo unit.

I have not thought about going to BB...going to now tomorrow!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] mgbotoe:
Hahah nice!

I played with it at the store, but I still do not know...get the s7 edge...the note 7...or keep my note 5...hard decision!

[MENTION=2895182]clsA[/MENTION] I doubt the bootloader will be unlock, and if we achieve root it may just be as buggy as the one the s7 edge received....seems the rooting method causes more problems than fixes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
It's an engboot/kernel that was never designed for nor intended for prime time...the only REAL root that will come for bootloader locked devices would be someone getting hands on samsung's sha256 signature....imho....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] kabuk1:
I played with one at Best Buy yesterday an it's very nice, I'm just forcing myself to wait till we know whether there will be a bootloader unlock or not. I dunno though. The main reason I want it is for the SD slot, I honestly wasn't crazy about the edges and the fact that they made it even skinnier than the Note 5 since I like a wider phone. I'm seriously considering just getting another Note 4 at this point.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] george_harris:
Preordered already
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
I am seriously considering a w8 variant and run on tmo...unlocked exynos 8, **** locked snapdragon smh...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] recepo1:
Played with one in Tmobile wasnt really excited i will probably stick with Note 5 and wait until the Note 7 ported roms start rolling in...also the possibilty of a locked bootloader is a turn off so if i did i would get a unlocked international variant. Looking at other forums and seeing China getting the 6GB of rams 128 GB of storage versions is a slap in the face as well. Who knows if samsung will release another version in the US later down the line.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] mgbotoe:
They wont, wont be the first time they released a better version in china
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Rx8Driver:
Looks like the w8 variant will likely be bootloader locked just like the US carrier models, since it'll share the sd820 chipset....a sad day for Canadians :(

I preordered even though I wont see the phone until well after I come back from a trip out of the country.

I was surfing the Note 7 Shipping Waiting Whatever thread. I cant stand the right now mentality, all the people crying about pre order times. Then they are like why did I even bother and throw a fit when they dont get shipping information soon enough.

Well I'm no genius but you are paying the same price as everyone else, to possibly get it sooner and you are getting your choice of free gift.

But if you dont get it a week early the fanboy inside of you will keel over and die as the world stops turning.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] JodyBreeze901:
I'm about to reserve one for my wife. Even though the free 256GB SD card looks good right now, I'm going to wait because if that bootloader is locked (like the S7 & S7 Edge) then I'm either going to wait and see what LG has to offer or get an Nexus 6P
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] NXLTrauma25:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] Mikekelso421:
Im 100% going for the note 7 IF, AND ONLY IF, the bootloader is unlockable. If its not, ill just ship from samsung for good. I dont care for their stupid knox crap and heightened security for their samsung pay. If there bootloaders will be locked from here on out, ill be getting myself either the LG G5, wait for the LG V20 or just all out switch to the nexus lines from now on. Also thinking i may go back to Oneplus. I had the oneplus one and that phone was amazing as far a performance. Especially when you consider the price. My main issue though is expandable storage and camera. Thats why im leaning more towards the LG's. They easily have the next best camera to samsungs. Although id also really love the new Sony Xperia X Performance. That phone is all kinds of sweet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] TheUndertaker21:
It's just another note phone this time with locked bootloader. They fixed the note 7 rom call issue and soon we'd have cm roms. So I'm good this year. I'd get another nexus phone.

LG G5 on Tmobile has confirmed locked Bootloader too! I pre-ordered my Note 7 thinking it would be unlocked and there's still that chance it could be it's not guaranteed yet nobody's tried even though they're being delivered today. I'll have mine in an hour or two and I'm trying as soon as I get it. If there's no Superuser there's no me as a user I'm done with this phone I'll take it back to Tmobile cut my losses cut my ties take my $50 penalty and possibly later on by the international version when it's available the price comes down a little bit
