microphone problems - not audio jack - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

hi all!
i got a problem with my lovely prophet. the microphone volume is very very low since a few days. at first i checked the audio jack and soldered a bridge on the contacts because i dont need the jack... but the problem is still the same. when i try to record a new note, i have to shout very loud at my prophet to get some recording. and answering calls is still impossible...
do anybody know this issue? is it possible to adjust the microphone volume? or is this a known hardware-bug at the S200 modells?
regards Alex

am i the only one with a prob. like this?

Does It work with Your Headphone ?

I bridged the contacts in the audio jack, so i can not use a wired headset. and i don't have a bluetooth headset...
but it must be a hardware-issue because i flashed a few different ROMs and got this issue with all of them...

The headphone socket on your 900 is perhaps the culprit. When you connect the headphone the speakers should get disconnected. Try to connect some other headphone in the socket. Connecting and removing the jack a few times also helps in releasing the spring loaded contact in the socket.

Microphone activation

Hi! Usually at work my MDA PRO is across me at the table, connected to charger and stereo system and playes music. At the moment of incoming call from cellular line to answer, I have to remove audio cord, because microphone not works. But at Skype call I can talk and hear caller in stereo system's speakers. I use regular mini stereo jack like in any headphones. Is it possible to activate mic for cellular line without removing audio cord using SW? Or only to upgrade original headset with fem jack? Thank for Your ideas!
i think it depends on your rom. mine used to do that on wm5 but now it's fine on wm6.

Thats terrible. I have this issue in my WM6 Wizard also. Point is that with Magician everything worked well - I had Mda Compact connected with my car stereo and there was no problem with normal conversation while it was still connected.

I running WM6 of cause, but all ROMs I used before has the same problem. Maybe it can be swiched somethere in registry? But I don't know where...

wired headset?

Hi chaps,
Do you have any suggestion for a wired compact headset to take phone calls?
I got a bt but its not always on and when I get a call, I dont want everybody around me to hear the conversation but when i pop in a 3.5mm stereo headphone, the microphone stops working
I cant find a combo in-ear headphone microphone thingi with one 3.5mm jack or a mini usb headset... so any suggestions?
What about the original one in the package?
You can leave your device in the pocket and accept or quit phonecalls.
You can set the volume of the incoming call to lowest with the slider left to the navi-stick, then other people do not hear your calls if you are 2-3 meters away.
I'd like to know a wired headset which shows the caller-ID in the microphone case, like the old sony walkman with the display on the wire, showing actual song and volume. The 3.5 jack will not support this, i know.
yeah you can just leave any 3.5mm headphones pluggged in, as long as they are plugged in before the phone comes in you can use the inbuit microphone.
The device still rings, so you just put the buds in your ears and answer.
This is what I do with my senseinhers.
I'd like a decent replacement corded set, don't like the sound quality from BT ones I've tried.
Had a USB one from gpsforless that you can plug your own headphones in just past the mic, but it wasn't well built and lasted about 3 weeks.
I bought this one for use in the car while plugged into my AUX in on the car stereo.

It works great with the Athena, there are a bunch of different types on ebay, just search for "Tytn Adapter" and you will find a bunch.
Pretty much any HTC Extended USB based adapter will work with the Athena.
Good Luck

I don't have such a problem with the original wired headset. The sound is excellent in both WM5 and WM6.
My wired headphones died pretty quickly, so now I use a pair of sennseisher buds, the microphone on the athena works when using standard earbuds, so although not hands free, it is at least a bit more private.
I like this from PPC Techs.

It gives you both 2.5mm and 3.5mm output so you can have your headphones in one plug and the headset in the other.
They have another adapter that goes from the USB for the same purpose but I don't have that one.

Problem with handsfree

Hi. I found out that my HD doesnt anymore figure that when i plug in handsfree that it is one. Only shows that they are earphones which do not have microphone.
It does that with all 3.5mm handsfrees Ive tried, also those which came from box. They worked for few weeks or so.
Now I bought new handsfree and would like HD to work with them properly.
Anyone with same problem? It is kinda annoying.
Wouldnt like to Hardreset or go for custom ROMs yet, since this is working pretty nice.
Do you mean once you plug the handsfree in....you can only hear stuff but the microphone doesn't work? Other people can't hear you when using the handsfree?

HD doesnt identify my handsfrees as HF. It identifies them as headphones (without microphone) so microphone doesnt work at all.
So yes, I can hear stuff but cannot speak.

[Q] Bluetooth headset (mono) low mic/outgoing volume

After switching from WM to Android, people often complain they can barely hear me while talking through my H710 bluetooth headset, that works perfectly well in WM and/or with PC. How do i reconfigure it to actually work properly ?
PS: let me clarify again, i am talking about the OUTGOING audio, the one received by the other party. The audio volume on my side is fine.
bump
No replies at all... how expectable
Just wanted to add, i've tested the very same ROM on the very same kernel with a different earphone (Nokia BH-105, borrowed it from a coworker), and it is working perfectly well, meaning it's also headset dependent, too
I'm facing the same problem..

I am thinking about just buying a different headset, can you tell the headset you are trying so i wouldn't even try that one ?
The headsets are not the problem.. the problem is in Sense ROMs.. i suggest you trying CyanogenMod roms.. some said that that bluetooth issue is sorted out!
I have a similar problem. I tried using two different headsets: mono - Bluetrek Sense and stereo - Plantronics 590. Both worked fine with the original firmware windows mobile. But after installing the Android firmware RAFDROID HD 4.0.2, my voice with a microphone headset is too quiet.
