Strange problem with bluetooth headset :-(

Hi everyone!
New to this forum but got my Qtek S100 a couple of weeks ago and found an irritating bug in it..
When I use my SonyEricsson HBH-300 Bluetooth headset everything is fine until I've talked for ~7 minutes.. after that the other party doesn't hear me while I still can hear the other party.. Sometimes my mic never comes back during that call but sometimes it's back after about half a minute or so.. the funny thing is that if it comes back it goes away againg in about 14 minutes.. and perhaps 21, 28 and so on.. haven't really made that long calls with that headset because of the bug..
The headset works fine with other phones, at least SE Z1010, SE P900, Nokia 6630 etc..
And the S100 works fine with my Bluetooth GPS..
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
Have you got other bluetooth headsets, do they work for long ( +7 minutes) calls?
Cheers

That also happened to me in the beggining after erasing the handsfree from my devices and paired it once more its running fine since then!
HI!
di7 riks.....I am using a Motorola HS810 Bluetooth handsfree with my O2 XDA II Mini and the same 7 minute problem is happening to me also. Initially it was 12 minutes but now it is down to 7. I can hear the other party but they can't and then I have to disconnect and dial again.
think I will do as katsj did...try pairing teh device again.

This is a known issue. Apparently, what is happening is that the device is going to sleep, and bringing down part of the bluetooth with it. The quick'n'dirty solution is to set your device to never power off, and just turn it off manually. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next round of ROM updates :?
I have an "almost" similar problem: I answer the call with the HBH-300 and talk for about 10 seconds after which I can hear nothing (the other part hears nothing also). If I close the handsfree from the MDA Compact then I can continue talking from the MDA (the call is not ended).
If I close the call and make a new call I get the same problem. But if I switch off the HBH-300 headset and switch it on again then the problem stops and in the following calls I can talk using the HBH-300.
This problem appeared only twice in the 15 days that I am using the MDA.
Obviously the phone did not power off in 10 secs (it was on when I had the problems) so the "sleep issue" mentioned previously could not have created the problem. Only the backlight goes off in 10 seconds. Do you think that the backlight might cause problems to the bluetooth?! :shock:

I am facing both problems described here. Does anyone know of a solution?
This is a known issue, but unfortunately it is not stated on Club IMate as a known issue.
This is concerning, because I assume i-Mate Techs are not working on this issue.
Over at Howards Forums Bengalboy states if you press the devices call button twice the headset incoming audio gets reactivated. I have yet to test it, because my caller hangs up before I get the device out of the case to press the call button twice.
One of these days I will beat the clock.
1.5 years ok, way back in Oct-03 I remeber many of us scrambling about all the MS Stack issues on the MDA II/XDA II, etc, and eventually tools were developed to help the issues.
I get rid of the PDA2K, because of all it's issues. Now the PDA2K has a better ROM and a new fix for the Broadcom stack.
Oh the misery.
I pressed the power switch on and also pressed the call button twice...I dont know which worked but my call did not get disconnected after the 7th minute...
Ujj
BT headset cutting out
I have the same problem - BT headset cutting out after a limited period of time, ~10 seconds.
Same problem here, when using bluetooth headset people can't hear me after 8 minutes, pressing the green talk button twice restores the connection.
Second problem: phone does not answer call automagic with bluetooth headset. (jabra BT 200)
Third problem: no voice dialing and no possibility to hear who is calling.
Are these MS Bugs or HTC Bugs?

Yes, 1.06.116 it is.
It adds another issue though, making GPRS unable to reconnect after a phone call or USB Active Sync.
Hit the power button to reactivate - not the Green call button.
I also have this problem, when the device goes back to sleep my bluetooth headset microphone no longer works. I can still hear the other caller, however i need to hit the power button (Red one on the side) to get working again.
No need to disconnect the caller.

Dopod 818 pro Speaker Problem

I've been using Dopod 818 pro since the end of December 2005. A week ago, a problem suddenly came up. The speaker of this PPC does not work anymore.
I tried to play music using windows media player, or real player -> Does not work
I tried to use the speaker phone -> Does not work
I can't even hear anything when I make a call or receiving a call
It works when I plug in the headset. everything works perfectly.
It plays the ringtone when someone call me. (Very soft sound)
Is this a hardware problem? or is there anyway that I can do to fix it.
I bought the phone overseas (I'm located in Australia now). It takes a lot of effort to send it overseas for warranty.
Thank you
Do a soft-reset. If that doesn't help, do a hard-reset. If that doesn't work , do a ROM re-install. If it still doesn't help, then you have a faulty unit.
I've done soft reset
I haven't done hard reset
->haven't had any backup program.
Is there any free solution for backup software?
Thanks
i ve solution
well for this solution u must disassemble the phone. look at the handsfree jack and apply a jumper to the two front points of the connector. it will solve ur problem

I've had this problem, what I did was play music using headphone and suddenly unplug the jack. The Speaker works again like charm.

dopod 818 pro speaker issues
I have run into the same issue with my 818 pro and my Himalaya...The fix is always uninstalling one or more applications that may be causing the problem. I assure you it's very unlikely that it is a hardware issue...Uninstall all applications and you should get the sound back..
I have the same problem with my 818 pro. I have already done the hard reset-no change, tried blowing air in and out through the headphone jack, silicone spray and playing with the plug. It appears to be a hardware issue with the sensor mechanism inside so it always thinks it has a headset connected--poor design.
Did anyone else figure out a solution for this (other than returning for repair?) This happened to me this weekend. Suddenly happened after I was using the headphone for an hour while I was rollerblading. Now I can't answer any calls without either the bluetooth or standard headphone. I can hear the ring go off, but just can't use it as a regular handset. I'm sure everyone agrees that this is a hardware issue with a poorly built headphone jack. But while I'm waiting for the retailer to restock the dopod 818 and send me a replacement, does anyone know of a hack that would allow the phone to activate the headphone AND the phone speaker simutaneously? The reasoning is I think the phone currently thinks there is a headset constantly being plugged in, so it deactivates the loud speaker as well as the phone speaker. But if there is a hack that lets WM5 to use the handset speaker and the headphone jack simutaneously, then at least I can answer phone calls without having to use the headset. Of course, this won't be a permanent solution, but it may bridge me through these tough times with the dopod.
I have to say, I still love this phone, but my patience is wearing a bit thin. First, it's the disappearing SD card (which I'm not even sure if it's solved yet), then I was having some problems with sending MMS messages, now this. :x
I had the speaker problem with my Jam. It is apparently a common problem with PPC phones, the mechanical switch in the headphone jack gets stuck. I was able to get mine to work again by plugging in the headphone jack a few times. If that doesn't solve the problem...well you know the drill
There is nothing to do but exchange it--I was never able to find a work around either. Sorry.
I had problem the speaker on my HTC Charmer. I send it for repair and they replaced the speaker, with in like a week+.
However, now there are some other problems. It seems that when I try to use the speaker (play songs, phone, games, etc), the battery drain like mad and the unit gets very hot. The unit drain so much energy that the battery will die off even if I had the unit on AC power. Going to send it back to repair AGAIN!

I had the exact same problem and suddenly unpluging the jack works for me..
this "sudden unplugging" thing won't work with Prophet, the Prophet's buzzer(speaker) problem is very common, the same thing happened to me, cost me 12$ in iran to change that part
818pro speaker problem Hardware related
I had the same problem.
Speaker unit in phone burns out very quickly.
If you have warranty - your lucky.
In my case since I bought in Singapore and Use in Israel, I had to fork out 50USD to get a new speaker unit.

What you do is open the Comm Manager, tap the "phone" icon to set to flight mode. Then, turn on again.... that should do the trick
I don't know what planet most of you guys are on.
The Prophet has a common problem with the rear speaker - it's a hardware issue as X_Farhad has pointed out.
There's no need to hard reset, and what's the crap about flight mode?
Yes, some can have a problem with the headphone socket and the solution for that is in this thread.
Mostly it's the speaker itself. The solution is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281331
I've found a bit of sponge works better than paper - to see what I'm on about - go to the thread I've posted here.
Speaker issues and phone hangs
I also have similar issues with my Xda Neo. The speakers stops responding when i get incoming call. I mean the phone dosent ring. Then if i try any music player or ringtons, there is no sound. I have to soft reset. Sometime when i get incoming call, it dosent ring and it also hangs the phone. Then i have to hard reset. I had to use that sponge over the speaker and then the speaker works. But sometime it still hangs. Looks like either HTC or Windows Mobile has major issues. I dont know how long this sponge thing will work. Are there any solutions..

Tal,
I have dopod 818 pro and having the same phenomenon like others, now I'm abroad and can not check the thing with the headset.

Phone goes MUTE. Kindly help

Hi everybody,
I have this one problem. After 2 days of usage, my Hermes suddenly went mute. No vibration or screen click can be heard even If I changed it to the loudest. I missed a lot of calls and sms due to this problem. The only way to solve this problem that I employ is by soft-reset my device.
I really hope somebody can help me tracking to root-cause of this problem and in the same time providing or proposing a solution to it.
Kindly help. Regards
morisa
Device: DoPoD 838Pro
did you unmute it from the speaker icon ?
if you have a backup restore it if not do a hard reset just make sure you backup your contacts/ stuff first
Phone goes mute
I think I'm having that problem too. Just out of the blue it happened. Didn't install anything extra the whole week. But when someone calls it rings, and if it's missed, it doens't play the miss call tone... or any other sound in that case.

Hi,
I noticed that the problem started to happen when I long-press the "Green" Button to activate the speakerphone during a call instead of pressing the "Speaker On" menu on the screen.
I've no idea why but maybe that could be the problem. Presently, I have to press that "Speaker On" on-screen menu to activate the speakerphone to avoid this problem.
Maybe other users can confirm this problem.

morisa

Got the same issue here and I don't use speakerphone
my pda´s auto mute so
No sound although speaker icon no in mute
I have the same problem. Out of the blue no sound is heard at all. I tried changing volume but it did not do any thing. Had to shut down (not soft reset) and restart device and it works fine. This happen several times and I can figure out why it does this.
If anyone can help...

Same here, I'm using a X01HT Softbank variant TYTN flashed with the latest HTC WWE rom and after about like 12 hours of use the device goes mute for some reason, making calls it works perfectly but playing sounds or ringers the speaker does not work. Anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking of maybe re flashing the device since most of my information is on my storage card. I'll see if that fixes the problem :-\.
same problem here....
Same here. Only a reboot fixes it.
I have the same problem but it only happens when using the speaker phone. After the call ends, then there are no more system sounds etc. I then have to soft reset, which pisses me off as I use the speaker phone plenty in the car.
If i dont use the speakerphone, then there is no problem. Kind of strange....
Has anyone got any ideas on how to solve this?
I have same problem. I thought it was software related, but seems that it is caused by the speaker phone. I had the exact same problem with my old IPAQ 6515. It must be a software issue with WM although the 6515 had WM2003SE and the TYTN has WM5 so I do not know. Really annoying though as I use this phone for an alarm and it never goes off because the sound turns off sometime while I am sleeping - Uhggggg!
I also have the problem. Only a Softreset brings the speaker back to live.
my new problem...misery loves company
same here; curiously 2 pages into this thread and there are no real solutions.
I have solved the problem on my TyTN.
The Midlet Manager is the root cause for the Phone Mute issue on my device.
lol I just started getting this issue out of the blue after a couple of months and I didn't install anything :|
yeah nothing but a soft reset brings the sound back
Happens to me too. Strange coincidence - I've just checked my m3100 and it's giving me the silent treatment now. Time for another soft reset
I never use Midlets, so that rules the above theory out for me. However my battery was almost dead. I was using WiFi at the time, which turned itself off when the warning notifications popped up. Maybe when the battery drops below an acceptable level it turns the sound off to save power, but doesn't restore it after charging?
nope it happens to me even if my battery is fully charged
this used to happen on my i-mate PDA2k, and my JasJar (Universal) running both WM5, AKU3.2, 3.3, 3.5 and unfortunately even WM6 :S
Hi All,
After checking and testing the phone. I found out that the only way for me to solve the muting problem is by silencing the notification sound when a new email arrives. Since I have an unlimited EDGE/GPRS, my push mail is working around the clock. Thus, by not having the new email sound notify, the muting problem gone. This is caused by the notification event locking up the sound and not releasing it even after I read the mail. Previously the only way to resolve is by soft-reset but now, no more.
I have no idea whether this work or not for others but you might try and post your solution here.

Dopod D810 Problem

Hello everyone,
I bought a Dopod D810 off ebay a couple of weeks ago and it seems to have a couple of problem.
The problems are as followed:
1) The phone speaker (the one which you use while making and recieving calls - not the main one) is really really hard to hear, i always have to use the speaker phone (loudspeaker) to hear what people are saying .. Is this a hardware problem ( i think it is because i have flashed the phone with many roms and have also upgraded the radio version)
2) The phone doesn't vibrate. Even when I put it on vibration mode, it doesn't vibrate. Is it a problem or is it just a dopod thingy (no vibration) ?
Please help
Thanks
Dear sidxda,
1. I think the internal speaker phone of D810 is normally hard to hear (especially in accepting a phone call when the bar of radio signal is low). My dopod is also deaf as yours. But it is totally different when I use headphone-set, the voice is very clearly. Because of it I look for a registry tweak that automatically activates the loudspeaker when receiving a call. My thread in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4654555
2. It should vibrate. If your phone device does not vibrate, perhaps the motor (vibrator) is malfunction and needs a replacement.
Best regards,
Part_D
