After using the headset that came with the O2 Exec (not for the first time - had been using prior), when I unplugged the headset to take a call the normal way, the speakers would not re-activate including the stereo speakers in the Exec. Installed the new JASJAR ROM and the new O2 ROM, no change. Seems like a hardware fault with the Jack Plug. I only have sound when the headset is plugged in.
Any thoughts ??
It IS a hardware fault, it's been mentioned previously on this board.

I have tried so many times to insert the headset. No change - need a new motherboard !! But I will continue to try!
I have taken the Universal apart to have a look at the jack plug and there is nothing jammed in there - is this fault only on Older units??

Hi there,
I just bought a Bluetooth Nokia HS-3W headset to use with my imate himalaya!
I succeded in pairing and using it but people talking to me say that there is a lot of noise and expecially a lot of echo, so that they cannot almost understand a word!
I obviously tryed the headset with another phone (a nokia 6310) and it worked like a charm.... then I tryed to use it with another qtek 2020 (yes qtek branded, from Vodafone Italy) and again it worked perfectly!!!
Both my imate and the qtek I used for the test has Rom 1.72, so I would expect they hase the same bluetooth stack! Am I wrong?
I'm not using any kind ot bttools...
Is there any chance to have it working properly, or shall I buy a different BT headset?
Thx in advance
i had the same problem, you have 2 options
1. slide out the rubber part from the plastic part on the speaker side
2. or what i did is i cut off the rubber part you press on the earphone directly, so in other words you click on the button directly & this will allow your the speaker voice not to bounce off the rubber side when his voice leaks
guys - gals.... I have upgraded to black 2.0, and I am not sure if that or if a drop caused the total loss of sound, but everything else works fine. I had Kuphers 2.0 before and no problems. I guess i cant even remember if the sound work after black installation. So strange. The speaker works and i can install a headset. but no speaker volume. should i reflash?
olipro latest radio 1.40 or 38 i think and have never had any upgrade problems in the past.
What about a soft reset?
If not I would maybe reflash..
Plug the wired headset in. if the sound works through here, but not through the speaker, chances are the drop has done the speaker in. reflash the original rom and send it to the repair centre. will probably cost you though.....
ok i might the dopod test rom
Strange that headset and tested a bluetooth stereo headset all work. no speaker sound. Probably try reflashing. I did register it with dopod, so at least i am covered there unless they are picky about rom cooking.. i kind of miss the U got mail references typical in the Dopod Roms. Ironic that they have a leaked wm6. thanks
I am running TTN6 on my TyTN, connecting to BT GPS, and working allrite when I hold it in my hands. But the moment I put the PDA into car craddle (which is only powering it, as I don't have handsfree car kit), TTN6 audio outputs (voice directions, alerts) are not heard anymore. When I lift the PDA from the cradle making the miniUSB jack unplug, audio is back OK. The cradle is Carcomm CMPC-95.
Ideas, anyone? I am convinced that the problem is NOT TTN6-related. Two other nav programs, namely Wayfinder, and AutoMapa, behave the same - they are muted the moment the device is cradled. Also, the problem does not appear when TyTN in cradled in my PC-connected desk cradle.
hmmm, strange to reply to my own post, but the problem still persists - and it is not limited to TomTom.
again: I am using CarComm car cradle for my TYTN.
whilst the device is cradled, taking power from car circut, no application audio is heard through PDA's loudspeaker. (nota bene I don'd have a car kit). Ringtones go off normally.
I checked that by lifting up and down the PDA during voice command in e.g. TT6. Powered: audio not heard. Not powered: audio heard.
please, help.
No audio in cradle
What cradle are you using? May the conector be as the earphones conector?
I have the same cradle, and my Tytn (vario II) audio gets muted too, though it only happens sometimes, and only after upgrading TT6 to 6.1.
When it does happen I go through preferences to mute audio (even though it's already muted), then un-mute, and the sound comes back.
I bought a second hand good condition Atom Exec for a lot less than the new one and still got warranty intact. However, it didn't come with original headset (well I've heard that it sucks anyway). So I'm going to buy a headset.
Can anyone recommend me a headset for my Atom Exec? Both wired and bluetooth. Right now I'm considering buying an I-Tech Clip R35 because I can go wired or bluetooth and it's small.
Thanks.
PS. I also want to know that the Atom Exec jack is ordinary 2.5mm audio jack. Or the jack also includes one additional signal line for microphone.
earphones
my earphone jack has just failed. I'm sending for repair. Good luck with new/old o2, you'll need it if what I have read on the site is true. Mine has some issues but the jack problem renders it unable to accept calls without using the headset.
sorry can't help with a 3rd party headset recommendation but your right the o2 headset/earphones are crap.
BT earpiece
Hope my answer is not too late for you.
I just bought A2DP BT Earpiece for my O2 Atom Exec, and it works fine with the handset, this earpiece have built-in FM Radio too, I use it almost daily for my movie, Japanese/Korea drama and songs. The brand is :
Brand : I-Tech Clip Radio
URL : http://www.kjc-tech.com/
or : http://www.kjc-tech.com/products1.cfm?Product_Model=i.Tech Clip Radio
Price : S$129.00
I've tested 1 set first for myself (Atom Exec) and find no problem and get another set for my Dopod PDA phone.
Hi Everyone !
I have an Atom Exec and am facing a very peculiar problem :
The earpeice of the phone randomly stops working... When I make a call, I cannot hear the other persons voice and he/she cannot hear me.
There is no voice in Windows Media Player also.
But the phone still rings. When I attach the headset that came with the phone, the voice comes through the headset and it works as if there is no problem in the phone. Whats more, I can get the speakers to work by turning on the Radio (without the headset attached) and turn on the speakers, then play Music !!
The earpeice refused to work for 2 days, then it automatically started working today for 10-12 hours and now stopped again.
I have upgraded myrom to O2's official rom upgrade but in vain.
Please advice.
THANKS A LOT to all people who read this and advice !!
Update... I turned on the error reporting module and it gives me an error : There was an error in "gwes.exe" ......
Phone in Radio Mode!! no speakers or mic working.
Some one suggested a Hard Reset or also pluggin and unplugging the Headset while keeping the Fm Radio Speakers on till it says the Headset is required for the radio to function. (it comes to normal now avoid using the headset!!
Tough this is not working for me!!
This problem occurred when I was listening to radio and I received a phone call. Then after I removed the headset speakers there was no sound from the speakers neither the mic worked.
My O2 XDA ATOM EXEC has gone in the Radio Mode. .i.e the speakers (both ear, above screen and the stereo speakers, bottom) and the mic are not working. the FM is on even without the headset and i can speak or receive the phone only via the wired 3.5mm jack Headset and mic.
The Stereo speakers are on only when i put the FM radio speaker on.
Some one suggested a Hard Reset or also pluggin and unplugging the Headset while keeping the Fm Radio Speakers on till it says the Headset is required for the radio to function. (it comes to normal now avoid using the headset!!
Please guide me to a solution; I even performed the Hard reset still the phone is in Radio mode.
