I didn't see any reports of this here or elsewhere but I'm having some mixed problems with connecting to incoming phone calls. Sometimes there's a ~5 sec delay before I can hear the other party or they can hear me. Just total silence.
This happens whether the phone is locked (stock slider) or unlocked. I don't see anything odd running and the delay seems independent of applications such as waze or whatever running in the background. Maybe it's a CDMA thing but I had a similar problem with my old vogue a while back with a rom I had flashed and I seem to recall it was a "known" issue and subsequently was fixed soon after.
Any suggestions? I'd really rather not have to re-build the phone today...
Thanks!

I've noticed the same thing, as well as sometimes I am unable to answer the call at all. For me, it seems more prevelant when the stock slider tries to answer. Hopefully someone knows the solution because I've Googled this and haven't seen anything yet.

Me too! When I installed PointUI (android theme), It's run very good and smooth. But I don't like it. I uninstalled PointUI then I can hear the sound when have an incoming call.
I don't know how to fix this. I installed shipped Rom and now ok

There seems to be a very annoying bug on my new XDAII that is running the 1.6O O2 ROM.
If I am on the phone and i receive a call that alerts me that there is a call is waiting, and I decline to answer it, the sound is cut off and I can't hear the caller anymore. Cancelling the current call and re-dialling is the only way of getting 'sound back'.
Furthtermore, another irritating bug is that if the phone rings and I answer after only 1-2 rings, I can't hear anything for a few seconds and have to wait those couple of seconds before i can speak to the other person. This doesn't seem to happen if the call is answered after 3-4 rings.
Any help would be appreciated.
Me too - only answer I found was to turn off call waiting.
Poor solution.
Same for me, i too had to turn off call waiting, however i found that if you are using a bluetooth headset when the second call comes in and you decline to answer it, it just transfers the current call the the phone and you can continue it there
Same problem here.
I find that if you put the call on hold and then resume - the voice will come back.
VERY irritating.
Same for me too, I have T-Mobile 1.60 and using BTHTools 1.1.0.0...
Do you use BTHTools?
yes l am using BT tools.

hasnain
I performed a hard reset...
Did NOT install BT Tools - and had the same problem.
Mine did this long before using BT tools also.
I also have the same problem....
Is it an incompatibility between the phone and Bt Tools?
Is there any solution other than turning off call waiting?
Does anyone face the 2nd problem that I mentioned:
Sometimes when I pick up the phone after it rings, it takes a couple of seconds before i can hear the caller. This happens more often when picking the phone up within 1 or 2 rings.
This problem was aroung in the I-mate ROM 1.66.
They fixed both with the 1.72 ROM.

i DON'T THINK THIS IS FIXED IN 1.72. i STILL HAVE THESE SAME PROBLEMS TOO, RUNNING t-MOBILE 1.72.
While running 1.60 I replaced the Radio Stack only with the O2 original release version - sorry don't remember version number - and it worked without these two very annoying bugs in the phone. i think it is a problem with the readio stack version only.
After losing the voice with an incoming call I can get the voice back without redialing by placing the call on hold and then resuming.
I have the same problems with or without bluetooth tools and with or without a BT headset.
Now, I have T-Mobile's 1.72 installed and am afraid to reload the working radio stack becasue of the "downgrade disaster" with 1.72. I am anxiously waiting for either a stable 1.72 or XDA Developers to help us out of this mess with this ****ty ROM.
This forum is fantastic. Thanks to everyone.

I had the problem in the 1.66 ROM, and no longer have it with 1.72!
I've just installed the new O2 1.72 ROM and am still having the same problem.
I am also suffering from a problem I was having on the old ROM. Many times when I receive a call and press the green answer button, it takes between 2-5 seconds for me to hear the person calling. The person calling also hears a similar period of slience before he/she can hear me.
The same thing also happens sometimes when I call out, where only once 2-3 rings into the call or if the other party has already picked up thephone can I hear or say something.
I'm not sure if caller ID or Photo ID has anything to do with it as I have around 1380 contacts on my xda.
This problem is extremely annoying and was wondering if there is anyone out there who has faced the problem and may have an answer for it.
Us too
We have two xda2 with 1.72, and same thing, there is a 5 second delay upon recieving any call, and sometimes there is a hangup duriong call waiting???
I never had that problem until I installed Bluetooth Tools...now it always happens. Though as someone's suggested, holding and resuming seems to do the trick.
I recently put Black Majick on to my Hermes. From then it started exhibiting a strange problem.
Bascially no sounds are played. For example, there is no sound played on incoming calls, new sms or email messages, when dialing a number etc. I can use the phone as such (the speaker works during a call).
A Soft reset will get the sounds working again but after a while they stop. This is within a couple of hours. I'm yet to work out what is causing it.
I've tried rolling back to older versions of Black, including 3.01 which used to work just fine, but the problem persists.
I've hard reset and then not installed anything else. The only changes are to setup push email. But it still stuffs up after a while.
It's obviously not a hardware fault. If it is software I am at a loss as to what though as different firmware + hardresets should eliminate that. I've tried removing the SD card in case that was some how playing a role. The only thing I can think of is that there is something in EXTROM causing the issue? Doesn't make sense to me though.
Searching around the place has revealed that some people have similar issues but there doesn't seem to be a fix. I've started this new thread in the hope that someone that knows the answer will see it and assist.
Loud sounds have dropped away
Mine sounds like it might be hardware, as the phone only occasionally rings (when I test (ringer ) it just vibrates), I can hear phone calls. I'd like to know where to check software in case there's some switch that I've accidentally tweaked. I have dropped the phone once or twice but not clearly lost sounds immediately after.
It still plays A2DP Bluetooth stereo no problem (that's why I upgraded away from Orange's WM5)

Hey, I've been lurking these forums for a while but I thought I'd come on to ask a question. I tried asking on sprintmogul.net but they didn't really help.
I've had my mogul for a few months but lately it's been developing a really annoying problem. I'm really not sure where it started exactly so I can't blame any apps in particular. When I receive a call the caller ID / ring and vibrate go off perfectly - the problem happens when I try to answer the call. Generally one of three things happens:
1 - The call connects instantly and just works - this happens pretty rarely, I remember the last time it happened the person calling was also on Sprint, if that makes any difference.
2 - The phone will just sort of hang there for about 10 seconds, caller ID popup still there, the ring stops though. Eventually the popup disappears and I get a missed call notification, as if I never clicked the answer button. This is what usually happens.
3 - The phone hangs like in situation 2, but the call eventually connects. This only happens if I press answer almost immediately after the phone starts to ring.
I'm on winMo 6.1 with the latest radio and am not running any major mods or hacks, just a few reg edits. I'll probably try a hard reset soon but ideas on things to try would be appreciated!
I am seeing this also, on both my own xv6800 and my wife's. It's VERY annoying.
I have a weird bug on my wizard. like the title says, the flash light just switches on randomly. luckily only at a very low level, but still, its an unwanted powerdrain. I can switch it off again by starting the camera and switching the flash on and then off again. I had this using NBD 8.1, also after reflashing it with that, and also with the latest TNT ROM. Is this a known problem? I have never managed to find any information on it.
another problem is that i was missing calls, which could be solved now by using the TNT rom. but the problem was that my phone would seem to work just fine, i could make outgoing calls, but i was missing incoming calls. the phone wouldn't ring, it wouldn't show any missed calls and the other party wouldn't notice anything wrong either, it would just give the normal tones when you ring people. Is this a radio ROM problem? It seems to have started when i moved to the netherlands, i think it was never a problem when i lived in germany.
I've been noticing the following strange behavior:
Sometimes the in-call volume is just too loud. Even on the minimum volume setting someone standing a couple of meters away from you will still perfectly hear the conversation. This only happens when receiving a call, never (as far as I can tell) when making one.
If during the call I switch on and then off the speaker, then the volume goes back to what it should be.
Has anyone noticed this before? Workarounds?
Yes, I've noticed this.
Always does it when it has been connected to a headset.
I seem to remember it went away when I installed the Modoco rom...
Mine still does it with the Modaco rom
@squirreleater: Thanks for your reply. It is just as you say
@both: Do you know if the latest HTC firmware fixes this issue? I know, I know, but I can't find the time these days to upgrade and find for myself
I`m on the latest MCR and it still does it. Its really P*****G me off now. I hate to take a call because of it.. Surely more people than us 3 are seeing this?
Yup, same thing for me although I've never noticed a difference between receiving and making calls (will watch out for that now). Quietest setting is still ridiculously loud. I'm on MCR 2.6 but have noticed on other roms as well.
I've noticed this too, but seems as though when I press volume up, it starts working again and allows me to lower the volume.
I can confirm that your workaround is just fine. Thanks.
So if i press volume up then down it will go quieter?
I will try this next call i get...
I am getting this same problem ... thanks for the tip I will try it.
I just noticed this. but after having my hero for like over a month. Could have appeared when i installed like 3 games yesterday but cant see why games would cause that to happen. but yea the workaround of increasing then decreasing the volume works. and it only happens when i receive the call. strange...
