so i got the mini a couple of days ago,amazing device,but im experiencing a problem.
when i get a call with the ringer set to 100%,the ringtone plays loud and fine for a bit then becomes muffled.reducing to 80% makes it play fine mostly time but still it DID muffle once or twice in ten times.
sometimes even at 100% the ringtone played fine.
other audio from the speaker(from music and video) played fine with no problems at the loudest volume.
this is really bugging me,as im really loving the phone,and dont want to give it away for repairs for weeks.is this a software(seems like it) or a hardware problem?or is it even a problem at all?what should i do?
Hi,
I have the same problem also.
My ringtone is "ring old thelephone" and when someone calls me afther the second ring it sounds like my phone is underwater.
Tried some diffrent settings, but nothing seems to work.
Its also on 100% becauwe i need to hear my phone as truckdriver.
Anyone who knows the solution to this problem please?
With kind regards,
Pascal,
Go to Settings-> Sound & Display and check if you have Quiet Ring on Pickup enabled. This automatically lowers the ring volume when the phone is picked up/moved. Try disabling it and see if it still does that.
HTC HD MINI Ringer problem
Hello everybody!
As first, I apologise for my english
I´m happy, that I found someone who has the same problem like me. I thought that I am just one
I have this problem with my phone HTC HD Mini, too. When somebody is calling me, the ringtone is turning down the volume after few seconds (like underwater, muffled). I switched off a function "Quiet ring on pickup" but it doesn´t help. What is interesting, this problem is not doing every time. Sometimes not. But usually yes. I did a Hard reset, too, but it persists.
So... two weeks ago, I sent my device to servis and they accepted my complaint. They changed this device for new one, but I found this same problem with a new device, again! I´m very sad because I think that all these devices HTC HD MINI are wrong.
What are we gonna do? I´m afraid, that if I send this new device to servis again, they will send me a new wrong one back, again.
Sincerely,
Peter
wow,even i exchanged my device for a new one,and the problem is there in the new one too!!
i think its a problem with all devices and we have to live with it.
Ringer problem
Really? Have you exchanged your device, too? I like this device, but I don´t wanna be satisfied with this problem... Are you satisfied? Doesn´t mean it any problem for you?
Hi, Go to settings -> Sound and display -> Quiet ring on pickup (turn off) It helped for me
Ahoj Stanley,
vdaka, ale mam tuto funkciu vypnutu a aj napriek tomu to robi. Dal som ten telefon druhy krat reklamovat, tak som zvedavy, co z toho bude... Len dufam, ze mi uz treti krat neposlu taky isty chybny telefon
Htc-service???
Like i wrote before, also I had that ringer-problem.
So about 14 days ago i returned my device to the store and the sended it to the repairstore "eurotwice.nl" for repair.
When i check my status its still under "repair/swap".
For a device that isn't older then 1 month i rlly tought they would said i could change for a new one, or similar device....but NO, it's a repair
My wife wants a iphone 3Gs for her birthday(for later update to the new OS 4.0) and i gonna follow up her iphone closely.
When it works like my previous HTC's (or even better) i only can say...BYE BYE HTC, it was the last one i bought.
HTC HD Mini
Hi,
My new second device HTC HD Mini is now in service, too - again! As I said the same problem with ringer volume is on this second device, too. So I sent this device to service one more time. But the service says that they didn´t find out this problem on this second device! So I don´t know what´s gonna be with this... I´m still waiting on this device from service...
theres an UPDATE on the htc website that fixes this problem.go to htc support to get it now!
now my phone is perfect
HTC HD MINI - Ringer problem´s gone

Hi there,
i'm stuck now with a very strange problem.
I was playing with the A2DP patch when i discovered that my prophet is making noise in the built in speaker when i'm receiveing or making calls.
After 2 hard resets (the Clean Data and the Camera/Comm buttons + reset methods), it's still the same. I can't use the phone as a phone!
Also same with headphones. It sounds like the volume is way too high. Almost unintelligible.
Only in Bluetooth it works correctly.
Any ideas?
It is a O2 XDA flashed with French QTEK S200 ROM, so of course waranty is gone
Help help help
Hi there.
Nobody had the same issue with his Prophet?
After some investigation, i came up with the idea that it was because i was using Wireless Stereo with an A2DP device, but it suddenly came back, and even with Bluetooth disables/devices deleted/unregistered from the phone, it's still the same.
I don't know what to do. I'm forced to use my Bluetooth headset to use my phone :?
I didn't try yet Hard Resetting my device, but the other day, when i wrote the previous post, it didn't help.
So, You, who are reading this, please give me some advices
I'm lost.
i have the problem in the other one, in the normal use the sound is sooooooo extrem loud. in the bluetooth mode works it perfekt.
nighty
Well, it depends how you see (hear) the issue.
I call this noise, but in fact it seems that the sound is pushed to the max. I can hardly understand the words people say to me through the built in speaker.
Maybe we have the same issue, but i call it "noise" and you say "extremely loud".
Do i understand well that you're living with this?
Did you also played with A2DP patch? Or is the origin of your issue different?
Personnally, i'd like to find a solution.
yes i played with A2DP patch and i wont life with this probelm.... i send mails to www.qtek.ch, www.swisscom.ch, www.daanguard.ch, www.teleservice.com and a lot of other Qtek supporters.....
in this moment i use only bluetooth for all calls. but this ist not really a final solution.
nighty
Good,
i don't feel alone now
If one of them answers you, please let us know on this thread.
Maybe there are also other people with same or similar issue that are too shy to say it here
They'll like also to know how to fix.
I can't believe we're just 2 with this issue :roll:
Nightly,
did you have an answer for all the emails you've sent?
I'm planning to flash an O2 ROM back to the XDA Neo and sent it to repair, but if you've found the solution, i'd be happy to read it before i go to Germany.

Hey, i was wondering did u ever find a solution for this problem as i have not 1 but 2 prophets with this problem thx
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!
I own an TyTN with Windows 6 (HTC official) installed some months aga and recently I have problems with the speaker.
I can not hear ringtones, music, Tomtom voice, alarms, etc. but I can hear a phone conversation when somebody call me.
I've revised the 'Configuration > Sounds and Notifications' and I have the sounds activated. I did a hard reset and before to touch or install nothing I've checked with no succes.
Could somebody help me please?

Sounds like the loudspeaker is dead. Just double check in the volume control to see if you have the slider set higher than zero - but it may well be a hardware issue.
Could well be the rear speaker connection has slipped off - not uncommon and an easy fix - see here (oh and a search would have produced several results for this problem):

Mike
Thanks a lot!!
It seems it will be a hardware problem
I've seen all the related threats before but I was hoping that somebody could give me a clue to fix some software bug.
Mike, I've been last summer in Scotland (and I visited Aberdeen too) It is a wonderfull land. I was surprised and delighted with the beautifull landscapes.
Thanks and regards,
Jordi (from Barcelona)
my sound had turned off today too.. ive tried to get inside my hermes and the connector was disconnected from themainboard (my tytn was droped down seriosuly many times ) after conecting everything is ok it takes around 3 minutes to fix that
wish u luck
good post. this seems to be what is wrong w/ mines. no sound @ all. but i can have a phone convo. and phone vibes. just happen out the blue last nite
Please help.
I have an issue with people can not hear me ... If I plug in a headset, and talk through a plugged in Mic then they can hear me. I can hear them very well.
Any help is appreciated.
i have Abusalza's RBSN.V27 ROM/ Radio 1.47.30.10, protocol VER 32.80.7020.20H
Hello,
i seriously need help.
Until this morning, my X1 worked. Over the last few days I was playing around a bit with various TF3D options, etc. I should note that I did not touch the ROM.
Then suddenly my phone gave no sound anymore.
No audible resonse to a stilus click on the screen.
No sound from FM radio.
No sound from phone (neither ring nor can I hear the caller).
(Vibra alarm works when activated though)
When switching to speakerphone I hear a very soft static crackle when doing the switch. Just as if the speaker is turned on. But then - no sound at all.
No microphone function on phone (caller cannot hear me).
No sound via headphones on phone.
No sound via headphones on MP3 playback.
Everything else appart from sound works. Even the phone can make a connection when calling - you just hear nothing.
I tried a soft reset. Nothing - still no sound.
Then I tried a hard reset:
Obviously the hardware of my speaker is ok. Because when I make a hard reset, there is the "pling" sound to inform me, that I should calibrate my screen.
Then there is another "pling" when the message appear, asking if I want to get the automatic provider settings updated.
But afterwards - no sound at all in the whole phone.
Then I went to update the ROM, thinking I might have (no idea how, but you never know) done something to audio drivers. I replaced my German T-Mobile ROM with the prepared German ROM without branding from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070
But still - same result as above.
Anyone got any idea?
Really nobody having any helpful comment?
did you try to change the radio??
I flashed a whole new ROM - same problem persists.
Besides: It´s not a Radio problem because system sounds and MP3 playback don't have any sound either.
Stating the obvious
Sorry to state the obvious but it sounds like the connection or the speaker module has gone. Have you recently tried the head phones on the X1? please see below link for a possible reason.

Hello Creamy-Goodness,
thanks for you input.
If there was somewhere a hardware switch for sound output to speaker or headphones (which I doubt) that is stuck, it would not explain why I have neither sound in speaker NOR headphones. (One would assume that depending on the position of the switch at least one of the two should work.)
Apart from that I only tried the headphones to troubleshoot the problem after I found out there was no sound.
Nevertheless interesting, that this happens to other devices.
Speaker module cannot have gone either. There is an audible system sound from speaker right after hard reset to inform me that I need to calibrate the screen - but no sound anymore afterwards.
I will try to have the device swapped next week.
reg. sound issue
I'm suffering from the same problem here.
it only freggin vibrates.

Usually there is a simple fix which involves replacing a DLL, but not in this case of course - unless that ROM includes the bad DLL. I seem to remember it was a problem which occured after installing TF3D, but I couldn't find anything when searching just now.
It might be worth you checking the ear-speaker sound (make a phone call), as there is always the possibility that sound is being re-directed or intercepted (by something like Troca2). Check what programs and services are running.
Tests should be done with a known-to-work-fine-ROM of course.
Okay, I finally got the original ROM to flash the X1 back.
And strangely - when after one week of not using it I turned it on again to flash the phone, I got my sound back.
I have absolutely no idea what happened and why, but I am glad that I do not have to send it back.
@k_ash82
What I did is:
Turned my X1 off (not just stand-by), really off.
Waited one week.
Switched it on again.
I had my sound back.
No idea why, but maybe that works for you as well?
Just try it and please post your experience.
It would be very kind of you to share the german t-mobile stock rom with the community . Perhaps it could be added to "Xperia ROM and Guides" Thread, too.
I have no sound sometimes with this rom

After switch off and turn on the phone again the sound is back.

i have original sony rom (no branding) and also the same problems
no sound after a while (sometimes when phone goes in standby, sometimes just without a reason)
cannot play any sound in no application (media player,core player,etc) also the phone ringing or sms sound is off.
but the most annoying thing is, i can make a call, the call goes through, but I can hear nothing from the called person.
sometimes it works when i switch of the phone and restart, but sometimes I have to do 4 or 5 restarts.
the phone is now 1 week old, an I haven't installed Touch3D or anything like that, because I made hardreset and left the original configuration on factory settings, just to make sure, that it's no software error.
anyone got a solve for this problem actually?
if I ask google, there are many people with this problem, but no solve found till now
i have an issue with the speaker too but not exactly the same as the one described above.
my speaker still plays sound but it is about 10% of the original volume when it is already set to loudest (you have to put your ear right next to the speaker to hear the sound)
after i re-flashed the rom, it worked normally for about half a day until the problem returned
can anyone please help??
i keep missing my calls ><
thanks
this is a well known issue on some X1 phones ! you cant fix this with any software-update because it is hardware related. some x1 phones have it like every 2 weeks, others 3-4 times a day. most of the time you can just reset your phone but this is not a solution.
you have to send it back to SE in exchange for a new one.
i called my provider (o2) and they delivered a new x1 _on the next day_ in exchange (they have a 48 hrs delivery/pickup/return service).
the new phone works just fine !

Hi,
since a few weeks I have a crackeling noise which comes up and goes by itself during a call. It´s only hearable on internal speaker and it doesn´t matter how good the connection is. Mainly it starts at the beginninning of the call and the it goes slowly.
I don`t know how to describe that. It is somesthing like static crackeling.
I already contacted the support. They told me to make a hard reset, but it doesn`t help. Same than before. A hardware problem????
Maybe a rom update is helpful? In that case I have to wait for the german one on htc site.
Any ideas what to do without sending my loved phone away??
Thank!
did u use hd tweak to ramp up the vol? i did and had cracking sounds.. it is too loud for the speakers..
No nothing like that.
