MDA Compact 5.21 TomTom - No Ring/call Volume - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

I have had the update 5.21 installed on my MDA Compact II for a couple of months. It works fine and is great. But lately something seems to make my ringtone go off. If i have tomtom open it does not work and if i close tomtom it does not work still. I try uninstalling everything and nothing works. I end up having to hard reset my whole device to get it working.
Anybody got any advice, not to sure if this is caused by the tomtom application.
Please! Help!

Tomtom controls the volume of other programs on the phone. It used lo be an option in the old Tomtom but no longer. If you turn down the volume on Tom-tom, it turns the master volume of the phone down. Check that you are not Muting the sound on Tomom. Also check you have a proper voice installed on TomTom.

The volume on my phone and TomTom are fine. It all works 100% for a few weeks and then all of a sudden only the tone which you hear when somebody is phoning you does not work. So if i have it on vibrate/ring then it only vibrates. This happens when i'm in TomTom and when i'm just using my phone as normal.
Now if i hard reset the phone to clear all programs it goes back to normal and works 100%. This is why i can only assume it is the TomTom 5.21 update and i have previously seen a few posts on here with people having the same issue. But i'm just not able to find it.

First of all, have you installed the A2DP patch? This patch usually causes a problem.
Try it with your headphones and see if you can hear it ring while using TT. There was a post not so long ago and a guy discovered that somthing got stuck in the headphone jack.

Not to sure what the A2DP patch is so i can only assume i have not installed it.
I will try the headphone socket, but not really wanting to walk around with headphones on all day and while i'm in the car. But thanks for the advice.

sound works with media player but not with phone function !

Hi,
When making calls I can't hear any sound at all....neither can the other person.
I can record and playback using the dictaphone function with no problems. I can also play back all sound using windows media player. and all other sounds within the XDA such as volume increase/decrease, beeps etc....
But when using the phone I can't hear anything :? ...does the XDAII have one speaker or two ? any help on this would be greatly appreciated...
Also holding down the green phone key does not activate the speakerphone function ?
BTW I have already done hard and soft resets
ROM VERSION 1.60.00WWE
ROM DATE: 12/03/03
Radio version 1.10.00
Protocol version 1337.18
ExtROM version 1.60.50

Does the phone work with the headset.? There is only one speaker as far as I know but 2 settings for phone/pda.
yes the phone works with the wired and bluetooth head set !!
Is this something that just started happening, or has it done it since a ROM upgrade?
I have the same problem appart from I get no sound from the wired heatset either. Not tried bluetooth as i dont have a bluetooth headset.
How long are you holding down the button? You hold it down after dialling the number for about 3-4 seconds, you should then get a popup informing you speakerphone is active.
No volume on unit
I have the same problem and it comes and goes. Anyone know how to fix this bug entirely?
No sound during call, speakerphone works and headset works.
I have the same problem:
No sound during call, however speakerphone works and headset works well. There is no sound only when I use it as regular phone. Person on the other line can hear me well all the time.
When I raise volume during call I can hear peices of the person on the other line, at the same time as phone beeps that it reached sound maximum.
This happened after phone was dropped and it hard reset itself automatically.
I am trying to reboot it now with different ROM.
Headset jack hasnothing to do with it, since speakerphone works well.
If anybody has any idea please share.
Thanks
xda 2 sound problem
Unfortunatley I have the same problem ;/
Identical as b11gy
Could anyone help us?
After rom upgrade the problem is identical
Hey.. did it happen after unlocking the phone?
I've got the same problem, Sound and mic work perfectly until I call somebody, I've got a wired headset, the speakers work during a call, but the mic doesn't.
I've just updated the phone from wm3 to wm5, but I had the problem before I updated, and i'n still having it. Does somebody have a solution for this problem?
The problem is not in Windows, because I updated windows from 3 to 5, it's not a hardware problem, because the notes-function work fine.
in an other topic I read some people think the phone is in headset mode, but if that is the case, mediaplayer etc. would only play via the headset.
Does nobody have an idea where to look?
I cant recall any more what was exact situation but as far as I remember I had same problem on 1010. Please check that part of the forum (wallaby), maybe it help.
A lot of pople had that with 1010, as far as I remember somehow we fonund that solution that worked for most of the people was to leave qtek on a dry place for a day and then charge it. That was the way I solved the problem second time and first time I patched it and it started to work (win 2003).
Heres the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=222433 maybe it help someone.

No more sound ?

Hi dudes,
My problem seems similar to Obstler's issue in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=35378&highlight=sound+problem
The problem: I can no longer hear any sound no matter what I do:
- clicking progs used to generate sounds. But no more...
- playing sound files just gives me silence
- a phone call generates a vibration as usual, but no more sound
- and when I pick up, I cannot hear the caller's voice
I tried:
- switching on/off bluetooth and speakerhone
- fiddling around with sound settings
- ending all active programs
Nothing seems to help.
My QTEK 9100 is one month old, has EXTrom 1.6.7.101 and is pretty much default (except for one lousy mahjongg game, but this one isn't the cause as it's been on for 2 weeks now.)
What I haven't tried yet; a soft reset. (I lack the doc here at the office but I think I need to do an ActiveSync at home first before resetting as I might lose some data right?)
Anyone had this? Anyone know what to do?
I'm quite new to PDA so I admit I wouldn't even know how to upgrade the bloody thing.
Had the same problem..
Try using your headphone plug, and plug it in several times(not to rough)
Sometimes the connection stays stuck in headphone....
It worked for me!!

Clicked the "connect" button on my Jabra headset. Et voila! :lol:

PLEASE help!Microphone doesn't work durning phonecall!

My device MDA II WM2005 2.01a 64WWE radio 1.17 crashed one day after sync and install some programs.When I finished my work with PC,I took the MDA out of the cradle and soft reset.After that it only load the windows mobile start screen and no more.I took out the battery for a while and after putting it back,the device started normally,only the flash disk was erased.Then I found out that during the call the other person can't hear me,only I can hear him very well indeed.I doubt that the microphone is damaged,so I tried some voice recording,and it recorded everything quite good.So I can presume the harware is fine.then I tried this:hard reset;ROM update,radio rom update.Nothing worked,the microphone still doesn't work during the call.I don't know what to try next,my options finished...Please if anyone have ideas on this issue,it will be much appreciated!
My Andes Mic Dead Need The Schematic
I've the same Problem Can somebody help.Where I can get the Schematic for my Andes.Please
I have the same problem, except my microphone doesn't work at all. I was getting by just fine, until I managed to snap off the plug in for the "wired' headset. Now I'm stuck using a bluetooth headset all the time.
With my phone, there was no event that precipitated the loss of the microphone. Nevertheless, I have since upgraded to Win2005 and the mic still doesn't work. I thought maybe the mic had disconnected itself on the inside, so I opened up the phone and made sure the contacts were clean and working properly, still no go.
Anybody have any suggestions? Is it possible to burn out a microphone? If so, does anyone know where I can find a new one?

something keeps muting my ringtone...

I think it's TomTom doing it.. I tested today, putting the phone on vibrate via the # key, then starting & exiting tomtom, then enabling sound using the # key.
I checked the sound by clicking on the speaker icon.. and lo & behold the phone's ringer volume was set at zero (whilst the earpiece volume is as i want it) - and I know it wasn't before my test. And to add to that, other events such as SMSs are perfectly audible. It's just the ringer itself.
Any idea if it's tomtom or something else? what can i do to stop this, as it's happening a fair bit & i miss calls...
Cheers
Rob
This happened to me as well on my Polaris. I don't know if TomTom is the reason but I will test this theory. I thought it was because I used the HTC profile tab to put the unit on vibrate, but come to think of it...the day this happened, I used TomTom. I'll have to get back to you....

thanks mate
tbh, is there software better than tom tom out there too? It is good, very good, but if anything I'd like a bit more screen detail! Have memory map for ordnance survey maps for walking, but a more detailed in-car nav would be nice.

TomTom is always starting MUTE, Why?

Hello fellows,
I have a problem with my TomTom 7, Whenevr I start TomTom it always start "MUTE", I know it's just a couple of clicks to un-mute it but this little problem is bugging me since I have installed it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Sid
I had this problem too, I fixed it by adjusting the TomTom volume while it was muted, then I unmuted it and exited the application. I think I played around with the Diamond volume buttons at the same time. I restarted and it was all good. Sorry I can't be more specific, I just wanted to let you know that it can be fixed....
Just out of interest, do you have a bluetooth car kit that you are using as well? Because I suspected mine might have had something to do with it.
I have this problem too!
Anyone said, that TomTom start with Mute, when a Data Connection (Bluetooth etc.) ist on!?
Actually it's also happening to me again, just tried it out. Couldn't seem to 'fix' it again, tried so many different ROMS maybe one ROM had the problem, maybe another didn't. Will have to look into it some more!
I've had the same issue with TT6 on both my Hermes device and now the Diamond. I reckon the last used settings are not getting saved somehow.
