Hello, I am not sure I should ask this question here, but please help.I buy a HD2 in singapore, I check the s/n and P/n to prove it is offical. But now I got a problem is the phone will call the last number of the call history out automatically when I use the earphone to listen Mp3 with Manila Mp3 Player. This happen when the screen is locked and turned off, and only when I use the earphone. I am using the offical rom with radio 1.66 which I download from www.HTC.com. It also happens to my frends who also use HD2. Is there any why to fix it? Thanks a lot.
No, this is hardware related and happens with an .. amount of devices. Another headset may solve the problem.

HTC Kovsky aka Sony Ericsson Xperia X1i
Ford Focus aka Honda Civic?
I have the same problem, just got mine changed..
I figured it was just me getting to some key or something, had the phone in my pocket, the screen should get turned off, but it does mysterious things in my pocket!...and when I use the handsfree it calls the last nr on the calls list, even last incomming call...
So HTC knows about this problem?
i have this same sh.t too..when i plug my 3,5mm speaker jack and start music tab then it goes crazy and calls the last incoming or outgoing call but when i unplug the jack it stops..any idea, any solution?
Ok, firstly, are you using the official headphones that it came with it? If so get it swapped. If not use the official ones.
After doing quite a bit of testing with this issue, as it has been bugging me since i got the phone, i have found 2 noticeable things.
1. As above using non official headphones can cause this issue but it's not just any clone headphones that it does this with. You will find more often than not this happens with cheap headphones. The gold plated ones stop this.
2. I use mine in the car to play my mp3s through the aux socket on my stereo and found that if i have the heater on to clear the windscreen this heats up my phone (as this is where it is mounted) it happens then.
You may also find that the songs start skipping through very quickly.
Also I found this started to happen less and less with the 2.xx base cooked roms as well. Whether this is coincidence or not I just dont have the patience to test.
Hope this helps in some way.

I've been using Dopod 818 pro since the end of December 2005. A week ago, a problem suddenly came up. The speaker of this PPC does not work anymore.
I tried to play music using windows media player, or real player -> Does not work
I tried to use the speaker phone -> Does not work
I can't even hear anything when I make a call or receiving a call
It works when I plug in the headset. everything works perfectly.
It plays the ringtone when someone call me. (Very soft sound)
Is this a hardware problem? or is there anyway that I can do to fix it.
I bought the phone overseas (I'm located in Australia now). It takes a lot of effort to send it overseas for warranty.
Thank you
Do a soft-reset. If that doesn't help, do a hard-reset. If that doesn't work , do a ROM re-install. If it still doesn't help, then you have a faulty unit.
I've done soft reset
I haven't done hard reset
->haven't had any backup program.
Is there any free solution for backup software?
Thanks
i ve solution
well for this solution u must disassemble the phone. look at the handsfree jack and apply a jumper to the two front points of the connector. it will solve ur problem

I've had this problem, what I did was play music using headphone and suddenly unplug the jack. The Speaker works again like charm.

dopod 818 pro speaker issues
I have run into the same issue with my 818 pro and my Himalaya...The fix is always uninstalling one or more applications that may be causing the problem. I assure you it's very unlikely that it is a hardware issue...Uninstall all applications and you should get the sound back..
I have the same problem with my 818 pro. I have already done the hard reset-no change, tried blowing air in and out through the headphone jack, silicone spray and playing with the plug. It appears to be a hardware issue with the sensor mechanism inside so it always thinks it has a headset connected--poor design.
Did anyone else figure out a solution for this (other than returning for repair?) This happened to me this weekend. Suddenly happened after I was using the headphone for an hour while I was rollerblading. Now I can't answer any calls without either the bluetooth or standard headphone. I can hear the ring go off, but just can't use it as a regular handset. I'm sure everyone agrees that this is a hardware issue with a poorly built headphone jack. But while I'm waiting for the retailer to restock the dopod 818 and send me a replacement, does anyone know of a hack that would allow the phone to activate the headphone AND the phone speaker simutaneously? The reasoning is I think the phone currently thinks there is a headset constantly being plugged in, so it deactivates the loud speaker as well as the phone speaker. But if there is a hack that lets WM5 to use the handset speaker and the headphone jack simutaneously, then at least I can answer phone calls without having to use the headset. Of course, this won't be a permanent solution, but it may bridge me through these tough times with the dopod.
I have to say, I still love this phone, but my patience is wearing a bit thin. First, it's the disappearing SD card (which I'm not even sure if it's solved yet), then I was having some problems with sending MMS messages, now this. :x
I had the speaker problem with my Jam. It is apparently a common problem with PPC phones, the mechanical switch in the headphone jack gets stuck. I was able to get mine to work again by plugging in the headphone jack a few times. If that doesn't solve the problem...well you know the drill
There is nothing to do but exchange it--I was never able to find a work around either. Sorry.
I had problem the speaker on my HTC Charmer. I send it for repair and they replaced the speaker, with in like a week+.
However, now there are some other problems. It seems that when I try to use the speaker (play songs, phone, games, etc), the battery drain like mad and the unit gets very hot. The unit drain so much energy that the battery will die off even if I had the unit on AC power. Going to send it back to repair AGAIN!

I had the exact same problem and suddenly unpluging the jack works for me..
this "sudden unplugging" thing won't work with Prophet, the Prophet's buzzer(speaker) problem is very common, the same thing happened to me, cost me 12$ in iran to change that part
818pro speaker problem Hardware related
I had the same problem.
Speaker unit in phone burns out very quickly.
If you have warranty - your lucky.
In my case since I bought in Singapore and Use in Israel, I had to fork out 50USD to get a new speaker unit.
Tal
What you do is open the Comm Manager, tap the "phone" icon to set to flight mode. Then, turn on again.... that should do the trick
I don't know what planet most of you guys are on.
The Prophet has a common problem with the rear speaker - it's a hardware issue as X_Farhad has pointed out.
There's no need to hard reset, and what's the crap about flight mode?
Yes, some can have a problem with the headphone socket and the solution for that is in this thread.
Mostly it's the speaker itself. The solution is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=281331
I've found a bit of sponge works better than paper - to see what I'm on about - go to the thread I've posted here.
Speaker issues and phone hangs
I also have similar issues with my Xda Neo. The speakers stops responding when i get incoming call. I mean the phone dosent ring. Then if i try any music player or ringtons, there is no sound. I have to soft reset. Sometime when i get incoming call, it dosent ring and it also hangs the phone. Then i have to hard reset. I had to use that sponge over the speaker and then the speaker works. But sometime it still hangs. Looks like either HTC or Windows Mobile has major issues. I dont know how long this sponge thing will work. Are there any solutions..

Tal,

Thank you very much for your's attention, I'm very apprenticed if the solution can being send to my private e-mail address at [email protected]
anyone have solutions on this issue? thanks
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.

Hey all, im glad this site is up its been great finding what i can really do with my wizard!
here is he issue im having. the wizard has 3 different speakers and 1 microphone. 2 side speakers (used to play music, or speaker phone) and the 1 main speaker (used for hearing calls). none of the 3 work when im making calls, listening to music, alarms, or any of the "screen click" sounds and the microphone doesnt work on phone calls or note recordings. however, the one time the speakers do work is when i have an incoming call, i tried listening to see which speaker its coming out of and it sounds like all 3. the headphone jack still works so thats what ive been using. pressing the speaker phone button while on a call (that i cant hear) doesnt do anything, the UI doesnt show any change or switch to indicate its changed to speaker phone and the "speaker on" button doesnt change to "speaker off" like it used to.
originally i thought this was a ROM issue, i was using the manufacturer's ROM (cingular 8125, unlocked for tmobile service) so i followed the lovely tutorial and switched my phone over to the t-mobile 2.26 ROM. this had no effect, so I then upgraded to XDA's WM6 ROM and while i love this new ROM it still did not fix my sound issue.
im stumped, any help anyone can offer would be great. I wanted to post here before i crack it open to look at all the insides.
same problem!
I'm having the exact same problem! I just noticed the problem recently, when my phones alarm didn't sound. I'm running a custom cooked rom from mattk_r 318 kitchen, but I don't think the rom is the problem, as i am indeed still hearing sound from the head phone jack. I don't think the internal speakers are broken, as when a call comes, the phone rings, and the sound come out from the speaks as mentioned above!
Help!
dropped?
have you ever dropped your phone?
I have dropped mine a couple times and thats the only cause I can come up with. But this never seemed to be a problem until recently.
no major drop recently.
i havent really dropped it recently at all.and for some reason i dont think the hardware is the problem,because i tryed voice recorder,and it records my voice and i can play it
back through the headset.so that confirms that the mic and both spealers work (rings
when incoming call). i really dont want this to be the downfall for my wizard! is there
any key registry entrys for sound maybe that we could have a look at? btw my wizards a G4 if thats makes any difference.
please help!!
mine is a g3, if it were a software issue then reflashing should have solved it. right? i dont know enough about the internal workings of the wizard to know what a flash actually does.
?
Anyone have any ideas on what I can try?
Well, a flash is an OS upgrade/downgrade. It contains drivers, programs, registry settings, things of that sort. Sounds like your problem is hardware related, nothing to do with the OS itself.
I assume the warranty on that baby has already expired, so you're pretty much on your own.
Two options come to mind:
1. The obvious... buy another Wizard
2. The not so obvious... buy another Wizard with a broken screen and take all of its guts out and put them in yours.
A third option also exists... (ther's always a third way)
Mind you, this is for INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY! In no way do I condone the below mentioned method.
Get a new line of service with Cingular and buy the Wizard to use with it. Exchange their boards, swap the IMEIs using the Wizard Service Tool utility found on these boards, cancel the line of service and return the "new" Wizard.
Sound issues
I have had a similar problem but located my problem to the microswitch which is in the headphone socket. Might be worth trying pulling the headphones in and out a few times to see if it allows the microswitch to release (if that is the problem?)
Steve
The wizard is magic
Some how my wizard seemed to repair it self. Its sound is working again...i didn't reflash or do anything special....weird. I think its because the phone had a good vibrate....ive got one of those speaker docks for the wizard..i put it in there...got a phone call and talked and stuff...but while it was in there (with the mic plugged it) it vibrated alot...maybe that flicked the switch mentioned above?
weird..this phone never ceases to amaze me. I just hope it doesn't happen again... because it appears to be emerging as a problem as the wizards get older?
Keep up the good work guys!
LOL!!!!!!!!! its so simple and yet so amazingly smart
wow, Steve you are the most amazing person EVER!
I put the headphone piece in about 1/10 of the way and slowly made a swirling action as i slid it all the way in, clicked the start button on wizard and i heard the "click" for the first time in a month!
Thanks!
I tried different options to get my sound back, no luck so far
Problem started after using the headset-connector to connect it to an FM-Transmitter.
After reading this thread, my guess is that the "micro-switch" is in a wrong position. So I opend my MDA, but can't find any "switch" in that connector.
Is there some more info about that connector, a connection-diagram perhaps ?
what worked for me was inserting the headset jack in roughly, robbing each side of the headset jack to try to hit the "switch". that might work for you.
Yes!!! Thank you a lot!
I have the same problem, no sound in my speakers, just vibrate and sound in handsfree. I figure out that this micro-switch could be the problem, but I haven't know how to solve it. Thank you once again, I love my SPV!! and this community.
Fixed!
Woohoo!
This problem just cropped up for me on the weekend.
Thankfully it wasn't long before I happened across this thread.
About a minute of persistent jiggling the microphone jack did the trick.
Thanks!
Hi,
I bought New HTC Touch HD from UK and brought it to the middle east. i found out that i have NO SOUND at all from the speaker. No Ring on incoming call, no play of music or a video but i am able to talk and listen when making call.

Just make sure you have your system sound is up.
What ROM / Radio do you have?
...or perform a hard reset and at least you will hear the start up sound!
Hi,
Did Hard Rest. no sound on startup.
ROM 1.14.415.2 (32434) WWE
ROM 12/23/08
RADIO VER 1.10.25.25
PROTOCOL VER 52.57.25.30
This is information of the Device
i upgraded the rom. no luck
i installed hardspl and tried cooked rom, no luck
in last, i took it to the technician of PocketPcs. he opened it up and said come after an hour. i went and the mobile was working fine. he said he has changed the speaker. wow
thanks for help guys
had that on another HTC device.
It was broken, and constantly thought that a headset was plugged in.
so it disabled the speakers.
do you see a headphone icon in the bar at the top?
Try to change your radio, when a radio isn't compatible, the first thing you can see is that you havn't any sound

Wow, thanks for this. I just fixed mine as a result.
I was getting no sound from the phone and microphone was also not working in call.
In call sound/mic worked fine through bluetooth.
Sound did not work when previewing sounds however the phone did ring.
After reading 27 pages of the "No Sound in Call (Intermitant)" thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438457&highlight=sound), it turns out to be a simple fix.
It turned out to be a bent pin in the USB port. The phone must have thought that the headphones were plugged in. Thanks!

Not sure why I didn't get the email notifying me of your question, so I suppose it's too late. I used a tiny screwdriver to unbend the pin. Eventually it broke permanently so I had to buy a used tilt on ebay.
Basically when people ring or i ring them they hear an awful scratching noise on their side of the conversation. I cant hear it but I ring another phoned and listened in, the more i talk, the more the crackles happen. Movement of the phone (i.e me walking) causes the crackles to happen.
This is only fixed if i plug the headset in far enough for both earpieces to work, but not as far as it can actually be plugged in. Would the Radio version have anything to do with it or do I need to buy another headset after just 18 days of use
OS:5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
ROM:1.61.468.1 (74237) WWE (the turkish one)

First off all try switching the headset. The headset has 6 months of waranty so just bring it back to the shop and ask for a new one. (ps: they can switch with one in a new box, just don't give up at the first try).
If that isn't working then flash a new radio but I'll doubt it.
It can also be the connector in your HD2 but for that the only solution is sending your device in repair
ok thanks for the advice mate. Hope i don't have to send it back but we'll see. I'm going to go to my t mobile shop tomorrow. would you recommend me flashing back to an old rom and radio incase they check it or should there be no need for them to do that.

no mostly the members of an electronic shop or mobile shop don't have that knowledge or don't get paid to check that
If you send them back to repair then you'll probaly be best to flash back a stock one, just in case...

if it's clear, then all clear...
