No Sound, slight buzzing in speaker

hey all. My Friend had a problem with his Prophet where there was no sound on the internal speakers on his Prophet, but a headset worked ok.
He hard reset his Prophet to no avail, but when he asked me, I remembered a similar problem on the E200 (or Canary).
It seems that the headset socket is a bit sensitive, and there's some kind of trigger letting it know when the headset is in. This trigger sometimes gets stuck when the jack is removed, as if there was still a headset plugged in > hence no sound thru speakers.
Solved it this time by plugging the headset in, and taking it out using pressure at various angles. I've also read about toothpicks being used on the Canary, but I'd advise against anything that could break of inside of, or damage (like a hair clip) your device.

anyway, the device fall down?

No, it works fine now.

Great!!! now all you have to do is enjoy the time you lose with your device.
Have fun! :lol:

imate JAMin Built-in Speaker hardware failure
I had to get my speaker hardware replaced.

Bad news!

Mine is back for repair due to speaker issues. Sounds like I am not alone ....

And the really bad news is that apparently the replacement audio parts are not in stock - it could take a month plus before I get my device back
It's already been 3 weeks.
This sucks.

Be patient.
Now I have some problems with my device and all I have to do is forget the device for a day and after that put all the attention on it.
Hope you can find the right place to fix it. Good luck!!!

Looks like i have this problem too. I noticed the speaker have some crackling sound sometimes and sometimes it's ok. But today it went dead. tried inserting the jack but no result.

repair neccessary
My Prophet (Orange SPV M600). Is back at Orange to be repaired fr the same problem also.
The speaker on the back of the Prophet started to get dissorted and after two days stopped working at all.
Two days later I found that if you tap on the back of the device, it sometimes worked again. Always only for a minute or so.
In the Orange store they took the device apart to check the connectors. No luck.
Now it has been sent for repairs to??????
Let you know when it has been fixed.

You can do a hard reset to go back to factory defaults (includes the register).
If then still you have no sound, I'm afraid you will have to return it to O2 for repairs.
btw, a hard reset you can perform by holding both the camera and the communications button on the left hand site of the device and then to stick the stylus in the rest hole at the bottom.
The device will prompt you to hit the send button to format your device. This is a hard reset.
Good luck!

Did you have any luck with your speakers problem?
I am facing the same problem and, although I reset it (and tried applying a previous backup which was working fine), I am still unable to make it work... I have to admit that I was playing with the registry a couple of days back, but I don't think that I caused anything by doing so.
Please update on your situation... I have an Orange UK SPV M600.

Its a well known hardware problem, I got Orange to give me a new phone, lets see if this one lasts more than a month.

Mine has been repaired by Orange.

Works like a charm again.
Robin

HELP! TyTN freezes/hangs on startup

Hi!
I really need help right now. This is second time my TyTN goes wild this way.
I can start machine allright and I can put PIN-code in but little bit after TyTN hangs totally. It does not respond to anything.
Even hard reset is difficult to do because you have to be so quick to push buttons before systems freezes.
There is no extreme programs or any changes made after last hard reset.
1. Can I do something now on the road?
2. What have I done wrong that it goes wild like this?
Please help ASAP if there is something to do now without HR.

I dont think the freeze can stop the hard reset ... You should be able to HR even when your TyTN is frozen till the ice ages ...

This is not the....
This is not the main issue. I can Hard Reset... but what went wron in the first place? And twice in one week.
Few decent program installations and using ActiveSync in two machines... I think that is the reason somehow... But how to prevent this happening constantly.

Most likely, one of your programs is screwing it up .. You need to figure out which one it is ... Setup one by one manually and see what happens ..
Also, try installing SPB Pocket Plus .. that has a manual safe startup mode .. see if you are able to start up your TyTN in the safe mode .. instead of doing a hard reset everytime ..

Just another thing to check along with suggestions above. Do you use a storage card. If so does it still hang with the card out. And secondly is there a decent amount of on board memory free.?

Had this happen on a Prophet it turns out it was one of the 3rd party software apps installed, the author updated it and no more issues.
I would bet the same thing is happening to you on the TyTn

yer i agree with mark i had same prob with my htc tytn turn out to be a 3rd party bluesnafing tool

What program that...
...might be?
Nothing starts on startup. I mean nothing special that my friend does not have. And he has no problems at all.
My guess still is that problem is ActiveSync. Because in freeze I can see part of ActiveSync window. And ActiveSync starts automatic...
Is there way to prevent ActuveSync on startup?
Thank you for your replys.

_mike_ I wouldn't be that dismissive of that advice. Usually, just where you think your sure you have everything covered in a particular area so theres no need to check, thats usually where your problem is.
The fact is that you and your friend have two different phones. Are the model numbers, lot numbers identical? Did you both in stall the exact same software with the exact same version numbers?
I'm guessing that you missed something there.
You need to be patient and thorough when figuring our these issues.
The best advice to find the answer to your problem has already been given.
Start with a base WM5 build and your ext ROM software. Remove your memory card.
Spend at least a day or two in base config. This will certainly tell you if its the phone or the software.
If your phone stays good, add one of your programs to the phone and wait another day.
repeat this until you find out what's causing the issue.
It's not quick or fast, but it's effective.
Good Luck!

Let us know how you make out.

So what happened with this issue?
Mine has started doing this right after I installed pRSSreader and subscribed to BBc news feed
I took out storage card, soft reset and was quick enough to disable the today screen plugin for the offending app and then uninstall now everything's okay.
Maybe problem was caused by installing pRSSreader to the storage card confused:

There was an issue with pRSSreader 1.3.2 I believe. It happened to me. I was able to disable the today plugin and recover, but it took a few tries. It's supposed to be fixed in the latest version.

Freeze TYTN
I had the same problem after installing Nots Push mail 3 party software.
Each SR make my TYTN freeze.
I have used Memmaid in order to remove it from the startup program
It has solved the problem

Mine hung after installing and uninstalling psShutXp. After uninstalling, I kept getting a notification error message whenever I turned it on concerning psShutXp. Then, it just locked up for good. No amount of soft resets, powering off/on helped. After a hard reset and reinstall of my favorite apps, back to working fine.
I do occassionally lock my phone by accident and I get a little freaked out the next time I use it because nothing works. Then, I realize what I did and that I'm a moron and everything's good again.

Just checked and that was the version I installed.
edit - according to their website 1.3.2 is the lates version

Hi,
I now have the same problem. I have only a view programs installed. Each softreset hangs at the windows mobile screen.
As I don't like a hard reset everytime, my workaround is to enter the bootloader and do a softreset from there...
Is it cleared in between, what is causing the hangs?
good night
dsp

Im getting a similiar problem with mine after not having added ANY new software recently. Mine hangs at the HTC screen, and no matter whether there is:
A) sim card and microSD card
B) microSD card only
C) sim card only
D) neither
in the machine, it still just hangs at the HTC screen on startup (regardless of whether its a soft or hard reset), and doesnt even make the startup tone, or play the animation, all it shows are a few digits and such in red at the beginning. PLEASE HELP!

Mine has it too
I know its a year later, but has anyone found an answer for the Freezing / not booting / not starting of the phone?

One reason is if you have a BS rom installed. You need to install a stock NBS rom (make sure radio is stripped out or you will have to reflash yours) the reflash your BS rom. Make sure you back-up your contacts and messages first.
Cheers...

Speakerphone + sync problems (i have been searching!)

Hi Guys,
I've searched through the forums, and did not find any post relating to the problems that i am having on my HD2 for about 2 weeks now.
Problem number 1:
When im trying to make a phone call, it immediately switches to speaker phone. This is also occuring when im receiving one. I pick up and almost turn deaf from the person greeting me.
What i've tried:
- Flashing a new rom
- Flashing a new radio
- Flashing a new HSPL(might aswell try that one while im at it right?)
- Tried looking into the phone setting with no success
- Smashing it on my desk being very frustrated
Problem numer 2:
After flashing one of NRGZ wonderfull roms, with maxsense, my phone stopped syncing with my pc. The icon on the taskbar only shows it is being charged.
What i've tried:
- Turning on the "enable faster data synchronization"
- Tried putting the pc to usb connection on hard drive or modem as default
- Flashing a new rom & radio
- Putting the cable in all of my USB ports on the hope it might start working if i do this whilst looking angry at my HD2.
- Shaking my fist at it in anger
This problem also occurred on my Linux install which would normally recognize my HD2 when it is in HDD mode, and i would like to hear some suggestion on how to possibly fix this!

so i guess my phone is f0rked?
i can always get a desire or droid incredible :/

shameless bump, im really about to destroy my HTC and buy me a Desire or droid incredible

Problem 2:
1- Try to disable your antivirus and firewall software.
2- Else: Turn off the "enable faster data synchronization".
Cheers!

thanks for the tips, but i have an independent machine that acts as an antivirus for all my machines, and same goes for my firewall.
I also tried turning off the faster data sync but its still not seeing my pc's /laptops as machines. the phone reacts like i plug it in the contact, and not a pc :/
tried this on linux and windows

It sounds as though some settings are lingering through the ROM flashing. Maybe you should check out Task 29 in the Rom section to completely clear your system before a ROM flash.

same problem
hi..
i have the same problem..
the positive side is that i decrease my phonebill... i have no motivation to call someone.. its soooo frustrating... since november i have this phone... and since 2 month this problem makes me going crazy...
what could it be!?? is this a hardware defect?? or what...
i searched a few forums... nothing really helps...
there was a bugfix for the changing horizontal mode... hmm.. ok... thats great... but it does not fix the main problem...
1. The phone speakers...
2. usb connection...
today my hd2 turned himself on in my pocket... and shoot a photo... of course completely black... and published it on facebook... ...
later i saw it on facebook.. and there where comments:
what is that, why are you uploading this... etc.. -.-"
i really like to make a rom update.. but it wont work... this is driving me crazy... how could this be that htc has no solution for this ULTRA BUG????
since touch hd ... i started to like htc.. but now.. i dont know...
do anybody have a solution here in this forum for this problems ??
greetings for all of you...

Hi, it looks like I'm not alone then! My HD2 is from the first batch (November 2009).
I have the same issue with speaker on when calling (since a few days)... Also the screen automatically turns on in my pocket and so I've for example twitted "hjkhlhf" to the whole world...
So, what I have done!
1) execute task 29
2) go back to original SPL 1.42.000 (the one originally on my phone) with the HSPL2 tool on this forum
3) flash the latest official ROM from HTC website: WWE 1.66.405.2
Result: after a hard-reset, without installing ANYTHING!
1) Navipanel starts itself because he thinks I'm in car kit mode (but why?), even though the phone is not connected to anything (no usb cable, no bluetooth activated, heck even no wifi or data connection!)
2) after disabling Navipanel via the options of Navipanel, I can finally use my phone... well sort of: everytime I get out of Sense UI (making a call, reading an e-mail, etc.) the screen automatically switches to landscape mode!
3) more frustating, the speaker still switches on when making a call... So now when I make a call it's in landscape mode (even when the phone is vertical) and the speaker goes on...
4) usb does not connect anymore in Windows. It's still recognized when in bootloader mode though, so it's still possible to flash something else...
=> hard-resetting again and again leads to the same result...
What I've done? I've called HTC, they will pick-up my phone on Monday morning for repair... I will keep you updated!

Well you will never believe this: as soon as I have finished typing this message, I have made a phone call for my work. And guess what? The problem that has been bothering me day and night for a week is all of a sudden GONE!!!
I guess I'll cancel my repair pick-up then... But on the other hand it must have been some hardware malfunction, and who knows if it will not appear again?

puh...
there is a bugfix on htc... for the landscape problem... but this hole problem appears on my phone the 3. time.. so don t think this was the last time...
my hd2 was also from the first batch nov 2009.. may be this is it...
the first wave of hd2 have a malfunktion...
nice...
