If it ticks, your speaker is probably blown. This means replacing the speaker is the only way to fix it. This could have been caused from faulty speaker, falling and damaging the speaker, or over use. The last one is unlikely and should only play a factor if the speaker is faulty.

Sophia provides a good point with the hardware vs. software issue. If it is a software issue, make sure your phone is completely updated because there have been reports of people updating their HTC One and it removed the "Purple Haze". If it comes down to a hardware problem, this phone is not worth the time to get to the camera. On tear down, unless experienced, you are more likely to break something than to fix your problem. Try everything stated by Sophia and then check for updates. If nothing works, your not alone. This has been one of the worst camera problems ever in Androids.

Your battery may not be holding a charge because it could have been by fall or water damage. Any damage to your battery may cause a phone to no longer hold a charge. Also, it could be the charger input or the charger itself is damaged. Check out our troubleshooting page at HTC One M7 Troubleshooting for a detailed description. However, the main things would be check your charger, check your wall outlet, reset the charging logic, or replace the battery.

Your phone sounds could not be working because of something simple, or your phone needing a repair. First, check to see if your sound is up. Phones have multiple volumes for different things so be sure to turn up the right one or just turn up all of them to see which one is for what. Second, make sure sound is suppose to be playing. A lot of times, the phone will stop the sound if it needs time to buffer or if the app does not want to work. Give it time and try something else that you know plays sound like a ringtone. Third, if neither of those are right, then your speaker may be blown. Check out our troubleshooting page at HTC One M7 Troubleshooting for more help on your speaker being blown.

Your phone could be getting to hot for a number of reasons. The first one being over use. Having to many applications running on your phone at one time can cause it to overheat. Go into your task manager on your phone and stop all of the applications and just let it rest. The second thing would be to turn your phone off. The phone is overheating because of the battery. Therefore, if your battery turns off for a little, it gives the phone time to cool down to a normal temperature. With this HTC, the battery can not be pulled out to let cool so putting the whole phone in a cool area for a little time is the best way to cool it down fast.
