No sms-sound with headset - HD2 General

Hi, I just realised that when my headset was plugged in and I recived a sms there were no sound in the speaker only in the headset. I tested in sound settings and it sounded fine when unplugged but not when the headset plugged in! It even didn't vibrate!
Has anyone else seen this problem? I'm on shipped swedish rom 1.43.
This reminds me of my previous Kaiser which when upgraded to 6.1 went completley silent when headset was plugged but it still vibrated.
Regards

It's because you've got 2 volumes - system and ringtone.
System is your headset volume, and ringtone is (obviously) your ringtone, but also your notification sounds.
Switch to single volume (in the settings tab - sound & display) when you're using your headset, and you'll get all sounds going through that.

Hi,
I already had both these volumes on 100% but I tried as you said to set the control as you said but still I have only sms sound in the headset when plugged in. It's also strange that it won't vibrate!?

Alarm Clock vs Music through Headset

:?: When the headset is plugged in the phone ring tone can be heard via the speaker. Reminders and alarms cannot. I want to be able to hear alarms throught the speaker when the headset is plugged in. Is there a solution on the xda as standard? Or do I need to get a software package to do this? Can anyone recommend a package?

Ringtone Problem- Plays out loud even when headphones are in

Anyone have a problem like this:
I did a had reset but it still is doing this-
The speaker plays my ringtones out loud even when my headphones are plugged in!!
Thanks,
Daniel
Mine has always been like that, whicever ROM I used.
Really????
My old XDA never did this...
So if i'm listening to music I run the risk of having my ringtone play out loud??
Is the only solution to change my ring prefrences to vibrate only when i'm listening to music (since the phone volume itself cannot be muted)??
When I preview the sound it doesnt play out loud
I don't have such problem with original headset. But, if I use bluetooth headset it happens.
So this is not normal....
How do I fix it?
I tried a hard reset- didn't work!!
Playing the ringtone out of the speaker even though the headphones are in is normal with most if not all phones. The headphones are only to listen to music and calls.
If you had the phones in but not in your ears and the phone rang only in the headphones how would you hear it?
Why would your headphones be plugged in if you are not listening to music?? And to answer your question- you would know the phone is riging by it vibrating.
Anyways- many people told me this is not normal...so there must be a way to change it.
Also, when I am in silent or vibrate mode and I accidentaly or even purposely push my Voice Command button the beep sound will come out of the speaker-
It will change the sound icon from Vibrate or Silent to the regular icon but will stay in silent/vibrate mode-
Is this normal??

Not sure about the voice command question but with regards "WHy would you have your headphones in if you're not listening to music" the answer is to use the phone handsfree.
Whether this is in the car (law over here) or while in the office a lot of people over here use headphones instead of holding the phone to your ear, some believe that the safer or healthier. No real proof but handsfree is popular.
Saw this same post on the Neonode forum and the SE's do the same so I presumed normal and as I say if you were using the headphones as handsfree if actually a good thing. Yes the vibrate would tell you but say you're at someone else's desk and can't hear the phone vibrating across your desk (hell of a vibrate really isn't it).
Anyway, hope that answers the headphones question
So why did some people say this doesn't happen to them?
That's an unanswerable question. It could be any number of reasons and going on the state of play with the ROMs is possibly down to this.
Going through the forums its amazing the number of people that have different problems with apparently the same phone.
I have the exact same problem, and am still looking for a solution.
The most irritating thing is that when I turn all ringtones off (only vibrate on) and I receive an incoming call, the sound that is currently playing (windows media player or some other program) is played for a fraction of a second thru the external speaker (the program pauses the mp3 playback on an incoming call, but this happens to late). Because of this it's impossible to use the phone for MP3 playback in a place where it's important that no sound is produced.
It would be really nice to completly turn the external speaker off when a headset is plugged in (i find it really strange this isn't the case right now).
It would be nice if someone found a solution for this (in my opionion) huge problem.
Yea,
I found this is irritating too,
I am using pocketMax Phonealarm
and mute:
- system volume
- phone volume
but max the call volume ( as I think that's required to answer a call)
I plugged my headset (using 2.5mm to 3.5mm jack) and listen the music using winamp & increase the volume, apparently the system volume is increased too ==> I think that's the reason why everytime:
- incoming phone call
- any reminder
is sounded in the headset too.... totally [email protected]@[email protected]#
Any solution for this????!!!!!

Prevent the Phone from ringing out loud when on headphones?

Hi,
I noticed that my Wizard (updated to the last WWE rom) rings out loud through the speaker when receiving a call while headphones are connected through the jack. I'd like it to only ring in the headphones. Is it possible? Is this a known issue?
Thanks.
EDIT: I just found the solution myself:
I set the key \\\registry\HKCU\Control Panel\SoundCategories\Ring\Speaker to 0. It works!
This is just GREAT. Big thx for finding this, been looking for this for a long time, checked all the music players but none offered it. Thx again
i was looking for this too
thanks!
This is great BUT... is there a way to have the mic work while on the headphones? Because when I get a call while on my headphones I have to pull out the headphone jack in order for the other person to hear me. This would be great and very useful.

it might be a hardware issue?
it worked fine on my jam (i use the treo adaptor) and not my wizard
i'll have to test the stock jam headset on the wizard to know for sure
well it'd be better if i was wrong
Just to clarify, does the registry edit turn the ring off the speaker permanently, or just whent he headphones are plugged in?
Cheers.
Just when the headpones are plugged in.

Audio comes out from both wired headset and speakers

Hi,
I've recently started using my cing8125 to play music and I have a very odd issue that I can't seem to lick.
When I play music and try to plug in a regular wired headset (like the one that came with the device), I got audio out of both the speakers on the side of the unit and the headset. Adjusting the volume on the device adjusts the volume in both the speakers and headset.
I do not believe it to be a hardware issue as I'm running the popular aku3.3 rom, and I recently flashed a friend's MDA to the same firmware and he is having the same problem.
Any ideas on how to get it to turn off the speakers when I have a headset plugged in? Shouldn't this be the default behavior?
IF you are running Faria WM 5 3.3 try this.

You will find the fix there.
Thanks so much for that! I knew I had read something about a fix earlier, but I couldn't remember where.
For people who are finding this thread in the futurem the fix is the following:
Q- After receiving a call music from player and sound from calls it played from internal speaker even with headphones inserted.
A- set HKCU\Control Panel\Soundcategories\Ring\Speaker to 0

Want phone to ring with wired headset connected

Anyone know how to make the THD to ring through speakers when a call is incoming? I like to use a wired headset and have it connected all the time so I don't have to plug it in our out all the time.
Didn't notice this at first since if you have 100% System Volume you can actually hear the ring but it's coming from the headphones and not the speaker so thought it was through speakers automaticly (also read someone claiming this in another thread).
So does anyone know of a way to solve my problem? Or is it just me getting the sound through headphones only when connected?
Thanks
I have the same question...
Mine seems to randomly ring through the speakers even with a headset connected sometimes, I find it pretty annoying since I don't want it to happen. I don't know how it's caused though.
