HTC One Speaker Loudness / Notification LED "FIX"

HTC One, one of the best smartphones in the market. The phone is described as the perfect phone in all terms. specially when it comes to the speakers but after using it for a while you must have noticed the loudness of the speaker decreasing drastically and you must have failed to fix it even after trying all the fixes you could possibily find on the internet.

but DON'T GIVE UP! You have finally reached the right place. 


Issues I had:

1. the speakers became quieter as months passed
2. the notification LED became dim

The reason for this is the dust particles getting trapped inside the external speaker grills. Thanks to HTC for the design.

 
The Solution:

BRUSH the top and bottom speakers grills gently with a dry TOOTHBRUSH and vacuum the dust that comes out. The speakers and the notification will be as good as new.

Enjoy music and movies just like how you did when you got your phone.

Warning: Don't brush it too hard as it could damage the speakers.

PS: Don't waste your time doing a Hard Reset on your phone as mentioned in some forums. its all bullshit.

Samsung Tab Sound Fix

The Problem...
Recently I bought a brand new galaxy tab 4. Yeah, Yeah you heard it right Samsung Galaxy. "Why not Nexus?" you may ask.Reason...this one had a better battery life which counts when you are using a tab for reading ebooks.
So back to the problem...
When I was watching a Movie suddenly, the volume on my headset went way low. Only on the headset. It worked fine on the speakers. I tried restarting, cleaning the buds and even blowing into the audio jack (praying I won't destroy the jack with my spittle).
At last, I took it to the service centre. The guy said it was a software problem and formatted the whole thing. I became happy. And I lived ever after.
Or I thought so.....but.....
Again after a few days...the same thing happened...I was like what the hell...with the stupid 2G connection in my country downloading apps and updating my mobile again is a sh***y option. So I tried a new solution...pretty simple one...
(sorry for making you all read my rant...)
The Solution...
I went into recovery mode and wiped my cache. That's it. Just wipe the cache, and you are ready to go. All sound is recovered and you don't loose any of your data.
To go to recovery switch off your tab. Switch it on by pressing the power button+volume up+home key together. Until the recovery mode is shown.
In recovery mode use volume buttons to navigate and power button to confirm the action.
WARNING: DONT DO A COMPLETE WIPE OF DATA. ONLY WIPE CACHE.
