Hi,
I have a problem with my HD. When I call someone people complain they can't hear me very well. I didn't had this problem with my old Touch Dual.
Can anyone help me to find a solution for this small but annoying problem.

Hi Manuel,
it sounds like a problem with your built-in mircophone so it could be a hardware related problem. Have you tried answering calls through a headset with microphone? Have you tried upgrading the firmware on your PDA, this may eradicate the problem.
Best Regards.

Hmm... Update the firmware? I'm using the latest original ROM from HTC. Is that what you mean? If not please explain me better.

Yes mate that's precisely what I meant. The official HTC ROM upgrade you had performed was released in July last year. You could try unlocking your phone (via Hard-SPL or USPL) and then flashing to a custom ROM (6.1/6.5.x) as this will allow you to unleash the true potential of your HD. If you were to try this, I'm hoping one of the cookers ROMs may contain a fix in relation to your problem?
For more information on the latest builds, click here.
For information on unlocking your phone and flashing to a custom ROM, click here.
Note: under the assumption that it may also be a hardware issue, possibly with the microphone, have you considered maybe sending your phone for repair if it's under warranty? (if it is and you decide to return the phone, then avoid unlocking and flashing the phone before you send it back as it will not honour the warranty, and HTC will charge you).
I have not yet being able to locate a Registry fix for this but i think there may be one to adjust the sensitivity of the microphone... i shall keep looking for you.
Regards.

Thank you very much for keep looking for a fix. In fact, my phone is still under warranty and therefore I didn't want to install a new ROM because I'm afraid to loose the warranty. I was trying to avoid sending it to HTC because... this phone is almost a part of me can't imagine myself without it and its contacts, e-mails, web, etc... For work and personal use.

I have tried hard reset without result. someone can help me to resolve the problem or must send the telephone in attendance? which can second be the causes you? there is a way in order to see if it is a problem software or hardware? thanks
If you've done a hard reset, it must be a hardware problem. I would send it back if it's still in warranty,

I have upgraded the bootloader of the tytn to the last version (2.10olipro) and the radio to the 1.41.xxx, if I send the telephone in attendance, is problems with the guarantee?
There should be no problems with the guarentee. They expect you to do update the phone.

Well updating using official updates is ok but with some providers they check for unofficial upgrades and may not be happy!

I have the same problem on SPV M3100!!!! no software solution found! I think is a hardware problem... But is a risk to open the pda by yourself!!!(even if could be a simple solution); let me know if you have good news...
what can happen if they notice that I have modernized the tytn with software off board?

Possibility of voiding the warranty, but search here to see if your supplier will check. Or wait til others reply here.

Well if you post here with your brand of Hermes eg TyTn or SPV etc and asking if anyone knows whether their warranty will be made void if non official ROMs have been flashed. I read somewhere but it could be wrong that Cingular in the US do not routinely check and warranty is not therefore affected.

I only have flashed spl and radio… tasks that are a problem? I have tytn Italy not brand

Well maybe it would be easiest to phone them up and ask if it's ok i.e pretend you have not done it yet and see what they say.

I have a signal problem on my Blackstone. Let me begin from the beginning. Firrst of all, my mom and dad had HTC HD aka. Blackstone, and I use Nokia N97. My moms HD stopped working (Touch screen issue), well she leaved it alone and now it is somewhere in the house. My dad bought Leo and gave the Blackstone to my mom. But the problem starts here, my fathers "old" phone, HD loses the signal when you are in a middle of call. First time, when my mom told me it I thinked that maybe was becouse of her SIM card, and she ordred a new one but the problem is still there. Today I got the HD from her, he bought her self a LEO Now, I have the Blackstone but it still haves the same issue, I called one of my friends and told him that I was going to try to find what the problem was with this phone so I sett him at loudspeaker and watched the phone while we was talking. So, I figured out the issue. The signal of phone studdenly falls down to zero (I mean the signal indicators) then it reases, and I can make a call again.
This phone has NEVER been modded or what you name that stuff with costum ROMs etc. I updated to the lastest official rom from HTC but the problem is still there. I use Norwegian rom, but if English one or Turkish one can fix this issue that's okay too. Sometimes it take 2 minutes before it happends other times I can talk up to 5-6 minutes. Acctualy, I have never hanged me on how long it takes my phone to "crash"
The thing is now, is this an physical or mental damage/error/issue ? (Of course, I mean the Blackstone)
And, I am sorry for my english, it is acctualy my 4th language.
I would be happy if someone here can help me about this, thanks for reading
Information:
ROM Information: 1.56.409.0 (43972) NOR
ROM date: 03/09/09
RadioVersion: 1.13.25.24
Hi there,
How old is your phone exactly? Have you considered having the device replaced if it's under warranty and insurance contract?
Other than that, you could try flashing to a different Radio version as this can resolve many issues with reception, battery consumption, call quality, GPS signal strength, heat issues, etc. You can try another radio version to compare and see if this makes a difference.
Please note: if your phone is under warranty, by flashing to a new Radio version that is different from your stock Radio version, this will invalidate your warranty. However, you can always flash back to your stock radio version of you need to send it to HTC repairs.
For more information on flashing to a new Radio version, please see this link.
Hey there, thank you for your answer!
I cannot remember when exactly I boght my phone but, it has only:
28h. 34m. and 56s. As incoming calls
and
30h. 48m. and 25s. As outgoing calls.
Maybe about 1 year old?
However, this is very low valuves, I got about 91h (Yes, I konw it sounds crazy) last month with my SE P1i.
I can try another Radio versions, can you prefer anyone ? Or is it like, I must test and find out what is best for my Blackstone ?

Just flash the newest radio first, and if that's no good... move down the list until you get one that works fine.

If they had read all the details in the radio thread and stickies before flashing a potential brick inducing file, they'd know all steps needed to be safer and flash correct files. Afraid i've stopped giving baby steps info to people when it's all in the stickies. I'm so jaded now...

no worries mate, as he guys have suggested above, try flashing to another Radio version with matching Rilphone version and stick with the Radio that hopefully works best for you.
If you have any other queries, just ask
Best Regards.
Thanks for the replies guys. I am going to try to flash my Radio a.s.a.p. and ofcourse let you know the result
This morning I just got THE bad surprise. I could not hear anything from the HD2 earpiece (I mean the earphone in the front upper part of the HD2) If I enable speakerphone it works fine, if I attach an external earphone or even a bluetooth earphone it also work fine, microphone also works fine, the only problem is with the front earpiece that I can't hear anything.
I hope this is some kind of bug or anything I can deal with because sending for warranty is not a good option for me.
Anyone have any hint to give to me?
Thank you a lot in advance.
Just to add I already tried to flash a new Radio ROM and a cooked ROM, nothing solved my problem.
I am still hoping for some help here ;(
flashing a new rom shouldn't really be needed as a normal hard reset should have solved it, if that was a simply software glitch.
If the ear speaker is still dead... it's just dead.
Even if it comes to life again, I wouldn't be so okay with it because it may stop working again.
I understand how sending it back is troublesome, yet you cannot really do anything more, I had my old ipaq 214 which became mute twice on two different warranty exchanged devices, but at least it was not a phone.
I also tried the hard reset. Hooo this is a nightmare! I can't even use the warranty because sending to USA is not a good option at all.

Have you not got an old phone as a backup? i keep my old phones for a few months after getting a new one "just in case" but i do agree it's going to need to be repaired at least.

A backup phone is not the problem. You may not understand my problem because you live in a country that is very easy to have access to the latest technology, but unfortunatelly here in Brasil it is both dificult and expensive. When we buy something from oversea we hope/expect that we never need to use the warranty because if we do we don't have, only a few corporates does honor the warranty oversea in case their product has been bought oversea and HTC is not the case, so they ask me to send to USA to fix it, the first problem with that is the shipping price that is over U$150, the second problem is the import/export regulations on my country that will tax it 100% when it come back from US and the last problem is that HTC does not ship to Brasil and I have no one there to bring it to me here in Brasil, so warranty is out of question for me.
So basically I am over frustrated to had spent over U$800 to get this device and it is not working properly.
Understand now?
You can use a bluetooth dongle as a workaround.
Hi, I just stumbled upon an HD2 on Sunday. Very nice phone!
Unfortunately, it seems the microphone isn't working. I have no sound on video recordings and people can't hear me on phone calls unless I use a headset.
I checked it with a phone call when the phone was on stock WinMo and the issue is the same now after I've hacked it and put Typhoon_CM7 on it (nand).
Is there anything I can try to test if this is hardware related? Is it hard to replace the mic if that is necessary?
I searched the forums as well as google but didn't find anything that helped. I'd really like the phone to be fully functional so any help or suggestions are welcome.
TIA
You can assume with confidence that the issue is hardware related if the same thing happens regardless of what you flash or install on to it.
It probably is
If u are not getting sound on the stock windows mobile 6.5 and not even on the android, it is sure that the problem is hardware related. You should go to a HTC center to get it fixed.
Hope it helps.
Give me a thanks if you found this post useful
Thanks for your replies. Any idea how hard it is to replace the mic?
