A big problem. My phone works good , but after 4-5 calls or messages he just stop playing a ringtone and vibrate ... i search on settings when this problem is on and seems that he chaNge the ringtone by itself. To make him work again i need to reset or off - on... i reinstall windows but i have same problem.
Sorry about my english
Does the phone actually change the settings OR does it keep the correct settings but just stops ringing?

I am trying to decide if this is a software or a hardware fault.
A common problem is the rear speaker (used for the phone ring) becoming loose. It's fairly easy to push the connector firmly back in place, but perhaps you should test this first.
One way to test this would be to play some sound files (MP3s etc, at a time when the phone is refusing to ring. If you get no sound or poor quality sound, then I think the connector is loose.
Other problems like the phone going to default ringtonemay or may not be related to the problem. First, do the above test to be sure it's is or isn't a hardware fault.

Well that probably removes the possibility of a hardware fault.
I'm afraid I cannot think what else to try.
I assume it does this with all ringtones you choose?

Yes... i frequently change my ringtones
One thing left to try that I can think of is to flash a different ROM. Not the easiest thing to do though if you have never done it before.
Mike
your problem may just be the phone itself. My phone also quit ringing, and I found out that it would only play certain ringtones, even though all my ringtones were stock and came with the phone. For some reason, certain ringtones just quit working. By using the standard default ringtone, the phone works just fine.

Ok, this is kinda weird. Dont know how to explain it and what is causing it..
After my phone has been in standby for awhile(random amounts of time) i hear this weird screetch/tik/like a short of electricity but very soft from my phones speaker, then there is no more sound. Not even if i call my phone will the ringtone play(its a custom wma file) or the sounds when selecting something. Untill i softrest my phone, then all the sounds are back..
I uninstalled apps that i lately installed, but it doesnt fix the problem. Now i dont have and idea what to do.. I dont want to rebuild the phone now.. Will wait until new rom with AKU3.* comes out.
I'm not sure what the weird sounds could be, but the muted sound until a soft reset is a documented bug with the Hermes. Have a look at the Hermes Wiki and search this forum for 'mute' for more info.
I have a problem: when I put my mda on "loud" the phone doens't make sound when someone calls me. Only the light goes on. In the settings "Ring type" is vibrate and ring, but still no sound. Tried also just ring but nothing happened, only light goes on. Even tried different ringtones, but that's not helping either. I have the WM5SE rom, but don't think that the rom gives me this problem, because I had this on other roms also, like the NBD series. When I first install the rom, everything is working fine, but after a few weeks it starts giving me this problems. I switch a lot between ring and vibrate, could this be the problem? Does anybody please no how to fix this?? Ferreira maybe you have some experience with this? Anyway I hope someone can help me, because I missed a lot of calls because of this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Check your radio version. I think the best is 2.19
And when you said it doesnt ring, does it vibrate (i.e. does the phone knows it has call comming in, and do something to respond to it).. or just a speaker problem?
Try hard reset. If it doesnt work then it may be an issue of headphones slot jam.

I have radio 2.69.11, ring type is "vibrate and ring". It does vibrate, but it doesn't ring. You know what the problem is?

It is probably (as vlodeck mentioned) headphone jack jammed. If thats the case, you should not be having any sound from the phone at all (i.e. no music, no notification sound, no SMS sound). I had this problem before, and I do not want to make this sound dirty, but you can fix the problem by poking it Poke your headphone in and out in and out

headphone works, music works also, even without headphone, so that's not it. I tried flashed radio 2.19.11 T-Mobile NL. No I just have to find someone who can call me to test it. will post the result.
hmm.. that is iiiinnnnnttttteeerreeessstting. from what it seems, chances are probably the ring tone you are using is somewhat, not compatible. Tryign changing it to a default ring tone, WAV, shorter one, that is not in the storage card.

I tried this also, it didn't work. I think I'm going crazy. If I change the ringtone and test it by pressing "play", then it works! But if someone calls me, I can only see that someone is calling, but I hear nothing! And if it's on "vibrate and ring", then it vibrates but doesn't ring! Isn't this crazy??
this may sound crazy, but just to check, is your volumn up? push your volumn slider up? make sure both the volumn controls are up.

I found the problem! thanks to you of course. I did this before but now I no the volume slider is broken. only the right volume was up and the left was all the way down. So that caused the phone not ringing. Anyway, I just have to do this with my finger/stylus in the future, so thank you for your help!
CASE CLOSED.
Its interesting but in WM5 i had all sorts of problems once where my music would not play at all. I had all the volumes turned up and all that and it still wouldnt play, then I turned the volume on Windows Media Player down to 95% and it started playing again, and i turned it back up to 100% and it was fine. Little minor glitch me thinks
Hey everyone this is my first post so i apologise if this problem has been discussed at length already.
Ok so my current problem is that my htc hd2 wont make any sound whatsoever when using the rear speaker (so thats any ringing from incoming calls, notifications, videos, music etc..). I have played with the sound settings relentlessly but can't seem to change its current state and I have also done several hard resets. However, when accepting a phone call or when a pair of headphones are inserted into the handset the sound goes through fine, leading me to suspect that it is the rear speaker which is the problem (My speakerphone after accepting a call also doesnt work).
On two occasions I have been playing music on it in hopes for a sign of life and have had sound on very sharp bursts (no more then 2 seconds). In terms of any programs or updates that I have installed on to my handset I havent done anything but apply the updates from the HTC support website.
The problem ocurred on day 2 of using this handset and I have also sent an email to mobiles.co.uk to ask about a replacement handset. However I was having a lot of fun with this phone and wanted to keep it if it could be solved myself so if anybody has any ideas it would be very much appreciated!
Thanks
Try a hard reset. If the problem persists after that, it's certainly hardware related.
Same thing happened to my HD2 today, all sounds just stopped working for some reason, music player ring tone, notifications, everything, did a hard reset and everything works again, it is a bit worrying when it just happened out of the blue like that.

Did you accidentally turn the volume down using the button on the side of the device? Stupidly, system volume can be adjusted using this button.

Yes it can. It either changes both system and ringtone together (if you only use 1), or you have a tab for both (if you use both volumes), as per the sound and display settings in the settings tab.
No, that was the first thing that I checked, I have the single volume unchecked as well.

I find the single volume the better option, less chance of this kind of thing happening. Other than that, it sounds like you have either installed a tweak or combination of tweaks which are not compatible or you have a hardware fault.
Woke up today and noticed I had a lot of missed calls and messages. Tried to send myself a message and noticed there is no sound. Could the hardware be damaged? I did not install anything and I already checked everything on the system. Can anyone give suggestions?

I hate to ask, but I have to really. Do you have ringtone volume turned up? Also, in case you're not aware, you can set ringtone and system volume to be 2 different things.
Other than that, if the volume is turned up fully, can you play a music file and see if that works? Try every possible software solution before thinking it's hardware.

Yep. Did all of that. I even re-flashed the ROM just to make sure but still nothing. Guess I'll have for warranty.

Just one final check - does the earphone socket work? If it does then it's obviously a speaker problem. If the earphones don't work either then it would suggest software, but I really don't see what software could cause this after a ROM flash.
Yes the speakers socket work. Calls are fine. It's just the rear speaker that is not working. I also tried plugging/unplugging the earphones coz it happened before that after removing the earphones there was no sound. But before it worked, now still nothing.

Sounds like it's broken then mate. Sorry to say it, but I reckon you do have to get it replaced. Bad times
Sometimes when i press the screen to select something(ie. opening an app), a noticeable popping sound is heard. It happens a few times a day but it sometimes gets annoying.
What is the cause of this, i know it's not the camera focusing element.
You sure that it isn't just the touch sounds?

Yeah its not the touch sounds, its pretty faint and happens maybe 3/10 times.
This happens to me too. Im convinced that theres something wrong with my speaker because the sound happens only when i click on something that is supposed to make a sound (except its doesnt because its on silent). It also happens right before an audio file is played

I have exactly the same problem. It sounds like a extra click and it happens occasionally.
i had the same issue, sent for a replacement, and the replacement does the same thing.
anybody figure out whats causing this?
and mioct

I'm afraid it's a speaker problem and not some kind of bug.
Even when the phone is on silent I hear the popping, very very annoying.
Its a hardware issue. I had it on my first n4 that I had RMA because of the screen.
My replacement device does not suffer from the issue.

Yep, same here - and I just replied to two other threads that sound like the same issue. One person said it happened after upgrading to 4.2.2. I think (and hope) this is a software issue. I just got my new Nexus 4 today, so I hope it's not a hardware issue.
This is happening to me. I thought I was going crazy lol.
Hey Guys,
Thanks for this forum first of all, its awesome. I joined especially for this issue because it seems lots of people have this problem. I noticed this problem when i got my phone yesterday. I have noticed that even when the phone is on silent, the speaker just turns on even though its not suppose to since touch sounds should be off. You can hear this by listening carefully to the speaker.
I got solved of the problem doing the following:
1. Go to settings.
2. Device -> Sound
3. Untick "Touch Sounds" option.
4. No more popping sound problem , although you dont have touch sounds.
It seems that even if you put your phone on silent thetouch sounds are active but dont produce sounds and keeps the speaker on when you press buttons. Might be software problem.
I hope this is helpful

I don't think that solves it. On mine, this occasional click happens with any sound (for example, go into settings for messaging to select an alert sound. If a sound has not been played for a while, the first sound you try will have the soft "click" right before it. Subsequent sounds will generally not have it. So I do not think it is related to only the touch sounds.
I'd guess that the reason it only happens when a sounds has not played "for a while" is that the sound hardware is being turned on right before the sound occurs.

Ohh ok, I guess I had another problem. My problem was that I would hear a soft pop even on silent when hitting buttons.
But after you mentioned the messing alert and hardware being turned on. I noticed it now. I think you might be right, they might be related to the sound hardware being turned on
