A Strange Audio problem - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom General

Hi, I cannot hear any sound during an out going call(O2 Xda Atom). No ring back, no voice after connect, tried earphones - no luck, tried the switch on the earphone jack - no luck, checked for software clashes, cold reboot, re-flash and couple of ROMs... the other party during a call hears hissing noise. In coming call is fine, both can hear well.
The speakers and mic are good. I can play music, videos, ringtone.. no problem. Also tried audio recording, no problems - the mic is fine. Any clue what is going on? Plz help.

Basically you can flash back to original WM5.O to confirm if it is ROM problem. For your case, I strongly believe it is not a hardware problem

Thanks for the response Sono. But the phone was working fine with wm6, at least for an year. Now I've tried 6, 6.1 and 6.5. I dont have a WM5 ROM back up, will try to get one tomorrow.

Tried flashing the original WM5 too, but no fix. I used to format file sysytem and install radio on my Tornado. Is there something similiar for Atom? Can I update GSM manually? Any advice?

No ring back, no voice after connect, tried earphones

Okay theres a number of things you can try to help diagnose it. Do this all on a clean install of WM6 or 6.5.. Preferably on a ROM that hasnt had any reported issues.
1. The outgoing call gives the receiver static.. correct? is it to any number or just specific numbers?
2. Do you have a bluetooth headset around that you can try? If so then pair it up and see if it does the job, that will prove that its a hardware problem.
3. Try a different dialer or the stock dialer.

Thanks Aegishua for the response, I flashed back to a wm6 ROM that was working fine for over an year. This is what I observed:
1. Calls to two GSM and one land-line gave the same results. The phone is silent, the other party hears a loud hissing and a high pitch tone, not so loud, almost like feed back noise. No change when I mute/unmute, switch on/off spkr phone. when I select 'hold' the noise is replaced with a hold music from the network. In-call recording captures my voice thru the mic.
2. I could not try a BT headset, hope to get one tomorrow.
3. At least four different dialers tried incl original wm5 dialer, wizard dialer- retouched, Yota etc. Each of them returned the same results.
Please advise.
Ok, I got a BT headset, but the result is same as before. That is, out going call no audio at all, in coming calls ok. Does it mean the GSM module is bad? Is there a solution, other than replacing the entire ckt board?
Thanks, Jole.

Mga kabayan, im not sure if this will work for you.
i assume youre using globe sim card and i experienced it before when i first flashed my atom life (with official rom) to a cooked 6.5. (talagang my issue kc ang atom life s globe kaya fix nila s official upgrade nila.)
so i upgrade it 1st with an official upgade rom from O2 before i flash it to a cooked 6.5. a long procedure but worthy. Try nyo lng din. hope it will help.
btw, after testing all latest rom... i am still using and preffered our kabayan chef bajok's 23004 release. not much in latest interface but it is stable and free from any bugs.

No Noise??

I have an 02 atom and it is having problems with sound.... It makes no sound at all when I select and click on things or make a call. It rings if i call it but i can here anything on the other end. I have worked out that if I turn on the radio function it then makes sounds when I click on things and tap the screen but as soon as i turn the radio off it makes no sound. With the radio on I still cant hear anything in calls as it turns the radio off when I dial. Any ideas?? Warranty isnt an option as i purchased it 2nd hand over ebay. If i need to reload roms can you p-lease give me a link as im completely new to this PDA phone business...
I had same problem....but solved it!
Sent mine away for Warranty repair, came back fixed... then it happened again in like 2 weeks.
BUT I found a solution
You need to use ur headphones and plug in about 2/3 then wriggle towards the front, i think it just a connection issue, and you can hear all things when the radio is on because the radio can play via the phones and speakers at the same time unlike all other sounds.

Hi I have same problem my phones sound has gone. I cant use phonespeaker and Microphone during a phone conversation. There is no sound from speakers when media playing and notifications, warnings. The interesting thing is its ringing when an incoming call comes. I can use the headset without a problem. Also bluetooth headset is working. I wrote to O2 support and they suggested me to do hard reset. But I had allready done it seveeral times and I upgraded my rom. Finally they told me to send it to Honk Kong. I am living in Turkey and its not a good idea. Can anyone help me?
Kind Regards.
I solved the problem

HELP: Cannot Fix Mic Volume (Rogers Magic)

I have a Rogers Magic, and I cannot for the life of me fix my microphone volume. Even when I restore a nandroid backup of the stock ROM, I still sound quiet and muffled. Is there a certain radio I should have flashed? I believe I am using the stock radio. I've also tried pretty much every custom ROM that will work on the Rogers Magic, and they all sound the same. I'm really stumped here.
Could it be a physical problem with the mic? Where exactly is it located anyway? Any help at all would be appreciated!
Try making a phone call, enabling speaker phone, disabling speaker phone then hang up the call. After that do a test call to see if that fixed the mic issue. Please let us know the results.
Thanks for the reply, but that didn't help at all. Still quiet and muffled.
i have the same problem and it is driving me insane!

No sound from other caller on earpiece

Hi All.. I posted this in Energy thread in deveopment but I think it is more suited to be answered here... anyone please help before my friend defects back to Apple!

OK Strange one here - hope someone can help!
I flashed older cookie on to HD2 for a friend and took phone to her in Malaysia - all seemed well but phone was freezing apparently so her brother went to HTC asia site and downloaded a ROM for it! GRRRR
Anyway it was a T-Mobile rom or something with a '51' radio. Since then when she makes a call she can not hear the other person through the earpiece (but can through the headset!) , but CAN hear a busy tone if the person is already on a call when she calls!
So I flashed latest Cookie Dinik style back on and replaced the Radio with 2.07.50.** and still the same!
I don't understand how the earpiece can make the busy sound but not hear the voice, yet headphone works?! I have connected remotely and used MyMobiler to see screen of HD2 and looked for anything that may be causing it but all seems fine.
If anyone has any ideas please help as she is about to go back to an iPhone after just moving to this HD2 on my say so!

hmm thats an odd issue and I would be suprised if anyone else has encountered it :S
are you positive its the ear piece speaker thats making the busy sound and not the loudspeaker on the back of the device?
also have you tried swapping between loudspeaker and normal handset mode? does the call work in loudspeaker mode but not normal speaker mode?

Good idea with the loudspeaker mode - will ask her to check that. Can't see how a rom flash could cause it - hope it's not faulty hardware!
I had a similar problem with my HD2: I wasn't able to hear my counterpart. I have tried several radio/ROM combinations with no luck. Looking at the test results I guessed it was a sporadic hardware issue of the earpiece. Sent the phone off to service, they confirmed the problem, replaced the earpiece and shipped it back, all free. Great service!
Of course, I had to restore to factory settings beforehand, including the original SPL, radio and ROM. If the phone is still under warranty I would suggest you try a hardware repair.

suddenly no sound?!?

hi there
i have a Hermes, exactly the T-Mobile version..
anyway it worked fine till one day i got no sound at all, no mp3 no notifications, nothing....
except the boot up sound... checked the forums, seems it's a common problem, and i figured that the rear speaker works (since the boot up sound comes from it), the speaker cable is connected so i have no clue... if it would be broken, than the boot-up sound wouldn't come at all from the rear speaker, riight?
changed like 5-6 ROMs so far, from 6 to 6.5, no changes with sound...
any clue guys what to do?
I'd need to solve this asap...
thx for any solution
can please someone at least confirm me if my rear speaker is dead or not?
cos i hear the boot up sound from it but no other sounds...
please ,its urgent, thx
Well, the first thing that i would consider doing is backup my important data and do a hard reset....why don't you try that too....?
okay
got from ebay a new speaker... changed it and it doesnt work either...
hard reset and changing the ROM (6-7 of them) didn't help...
at beginning the sound could be heard at boot only while playing music, ringing and that stuff was mute... after 2 days the sound at boot disappeared too...
so, does anyone have a solution? when i plug the microUSB to 3.5mm adapter i can hear the sound on my earphones, but there is no sound when played normally on the ppc itself...
can anyone help me to solve this? where could be the problem?
thanks
okay...
going mad really... now i flashed an original AT&T US rom (although i have a tmobile EU) and guess what.... i hear the sound back again, but only at boot up... other sounds in winmo (ring, mp3, music, programs) are dead... can't hear anything although the volume is set at max...
so... i assume this can't be a hardware issue..
before this ATT i changed like 6 more different roms and all with same problems... now i have sound only at bootup... does anyone know where is the problem and a possible solution?
thanks
cmon guys... don't tell me no one has no idea what to do.....
i've been flashing and reflashing the roms but so far i can get only the boot up sound... any other sound is not available.. why? how to repair it?
thx
it's funny to see you can ask sometimes questions no one knows to answer
you've tried it by using the head set...?
whether the results were the same as well (no sound)..?
when using a headset (extUSB) there is sound and everything is normal...

you'd better check the speakers on your device , may be the connecting cable is damaged and if necessary you replace ....
I have the same problem here!!!Have you fixed that??Can you suggest me something, please???
Hi all... new here
I also have the same problem on my AT&T 8525. The Telephone speaker works but the phone doesn't ring or give audio notifications any longer. I've done a hard reboot 3 times. Bluetooth audio works fine. But no speakerphone. If anyone has a solution we'd appreciate it!
Thanks!!!

[Q] Phone's Sound Problem

Hi All,
I have a problem with my HD2. I am not able to hear anything during call or my voice mails. But the loudspeaker is working fine. Also if I use head phones, I can hear fine.
Before you start jumping into the build and radios and etc etc, let me tell you this. I got this problem when I did not even know about flashing android on the HD2. But this problems goes away after 15-20 mins after restarting the phone. But this time it is not going from last 2 days, which is frustrating.
Anyone has any solution to my problem, please share it.
Thanks a lottt....

Hey Thanks for the advice. But it doesn't work. I had tried this method earlier. But still I gave it another shot. The problem is I do not have any sound at all, not low in call volume...
Ok, did not realise you had no sound. I'm wondering if it is not a hardware problem then. If you can hear via headphones and the rear speaker works, then it is probably the front speaker that is a problem. I'd reflash to winmo stock and take the device in for a warranty claim.
hello,
can i use this on my coredroid hd 1.5 release? i allready renamed the ''htcleo.acdb'' now the sound is louder but is not very clear,do you thing this will provide to me better sound quality?
