Title: Nexus 7 sound troubleshooting
Post by: battler23 on December 25, 2012, 12:33:19 PM

I've gone through quite a few forums trying to find a answer to this problem, I bought my Nexus 7 today & it was working fine with no issues, after a few hours the sound cut out randomly. I tried using headsets to see if maybe the speaker blew out but even with headsets I have no sound, sometimes a muffled noise. Any solutions to this? As it seems to be a software issue

Edit: I also made sure inside of settings that all volumes are set to max, and made sure that it was not in silent mode, still no sound from anything.

Have  you tried rebooting your Nexus  7?

Multiple times, I also thought it might be an app disturbing it so I formatted the device back to factory default, still no luck :/

Ouch.   You've verified the hardware volume buttons work?

With out of the box issues that a factory reset did not solve, I would return it for a replacement.
