When will the Audio Problem be fixed completely

I want to know when will the sound problem be fixed completely? im currently using fresh 1.5 because all of the 2.1 have problems with the sound.. when someone calls i cant hear them and they cant hear me! i cant be resetting my phone everytime this happens. the fix that they have dont work also it might prevent it from happening so often but all my calls are important... does any one know when this will be fixed fully or why is this happening? how to prevent it ? mayb its the cdma settings? Thanks alot

The audio problem for the effected phones will be fixed when official 2.1 comes out.

i found whats causing it.... so who has a nice rom with the older kernel before .29 .. wats the kernel ? lol
The issue is caused by audio drivers in the kernel not resetting. we do not have the source for .29 kernel so there is no fix. we dont know why this effects some people and not others. Since the audio drivers do not reset it does not allow anything to read them. so it continues resetting and resetting and this causes the cpu to be pegged by the constant retry and retry.

Any 1.5 or overclocked 2.1 Rom

The audiofix posted by avalaunch worked briliantly for me. I have not had the issue once since he posted his fix about two weeks ago.
Also just so you know, zens my touch Rom did not have the audio issues for me. Just be sure to reboot after the first boot to completely get everything working.

which fix the audiofx or audiorc?? or u on the newest one for testers? i hate the my touch roms omg lol whats the older kernel version

wait another thing could it be because we didnt update the radio ?? or u guys doubt that 1?

I have had the audio issue with every ROM i had used until i flashed the Dachdroid 2. Ever since i have not had any kind of issues with phone freezing or caller not hearing me when i answer. Its very strange, but i wanted to post to see if any of the Devs can find out the differences between whats in this ROM and all the othersthat would make it work. Again i have had audio issues with all except this one.

What is this Audio problem?
I've run ROMs with both the .29 and hacked up .27 kernels.
Is this a bluetooth audio problem? Or handset audio?

The problem occurs randomly, for me at least. It's an issue I've had as others have that no audio at all comes through after an unknown time. I notice mine is triggered when I get off the phone with someone, I get 'call lost' and then all my audio is gone and have to reboot to get audio back. It affects BT and handset for me.

Iv never had the problem and iv changed my radio quite a few times. I think im on my 4th radio.
Maybe later at night you could flash a 2.1 rom, change to a newer radio and give it a few test to see if it works.
Flipz has alot of radios and I think the stock one on his site.
(IF anyone trys flashing a radio this is really the only way you can brick your phone. DO not flash any radio unless it says CDMA htc hero. All of them are on flipzmode website. You cant go wrong if you get them from him.)

the issue will hopefully be fixed when they release 2.1 officially. and im still looking into the issue a little at a time. 99% of people reported that one of the two updates put together fix it.
the only other cause could be a hawrdware issue. like the moved one resistor on the board and this causes something in the kernel to restart drivers. idk that is a very very very simple thought. but anyways like i said hopefully it get fixed!

Dont know if this is related but its absolutely killing me
Just today the headset icon popped on and wont go away. I cant hear anything when using the phone because its stuck in this mode. I plug in headphones and the voice dialer starts. I can hear through the headphones, but taking them out does nothing.
Anyone have any info on this or if there is anything I can do?

yea thats y im on fresh 1.5 i hate the 2.1 simply because of the audio problem coming from the headset !!! andn darch droid2? does everything work correctly like camera ect ... i hope its not that dam mytouch theme that 1 sucks ill try tonight

yeah...Ive come to the conclusion that 2.1 is just not going to work for me...went back to fresh 1.1 and everything is good. Its funny though, Ive been on 2.1 since all of the work was done and never had a problem until now. Ive been on damn near every 2.1 rom and didnt have an issue. Now all of the sudden the handset icon shows up and I cant hear anything unless I put in headphones. Tried all of the audio fixes and searched the entire net looking for a resolution. Hopefully the official comes soon. I am definitely going to miss 2.1.

That's more than likely a mechanical problem. Take it in to Sprint.

I would think so too, but I went back to fresh 1.1 and its fine...

I'd go back, but then I'm stuck with not being able to receive picture messages. So far I get the audio problem every other day, and it's a simple reboot.

a simple reboot ? a simple headache lol idk about u guys i dont want to have to restart my phone when i just got a call that i couldnt answer !! ..... is there any newer roms with the older kernel?? because i dont understand the whole kernel thing...

This audio loss issue is reason number one why all of the people who say "Who cares when HTC and Sprint release 2.1? We already have it!" are just total idiots.

No Sound incoming/outgoing calls and Multimedia

The sound in my magic is not working on any ROM 2.1 that I install if I go back to 1.6 or 1.5 it does work. The notifications, alarms, etc.. work perfect but when it comes to receiving or making a call the sound doesn't work unless I turn on the speakerphone, the same thing happens with multmedia music if i play I song cant hear it unless I plug earphones.
Does this happens to anyone else? and/or know how to fix it?
Thankss!

you'll see my post as well.. i have the same problem..
Rooted fender mytouch, i haven't tried to go down to 1.6 or 1.5 ... im not sure what happened or why it happened? sorry i don't have a solution, i thought i would let you know that you're not alone.

Thanks for the reply, when I go down to 1.6 or 1.5 sound comes back so that's a kind of a solution but I really want it to work on 2.1 and not be stuck on 1.6 forever.
Let me know if you find a work arround.

I am having the same problem when running any version of CM 5.0.7. I have not tried any other ROMs.
Just another person letting you know that you are not alone.

It happens to me when running any CM from the first one that used 2.1 I also tried another non CM 2.1 ROM and had the same problem so it has to be 2.1 issue for us somehow. Hope we can find a fix for this soon.

sounds like I am in the same boat, but not even sure what to load or what to do to get sound back.
Speaker is the only thing that works, nothing else for me.

what SPL ya'll on?

Just to throw in my two cents to the mix, I was running CM 5.0.7 when my mytouch went down a couple of days ago, I went down into CM 4.2.15 thinking I was the new recovery I just flashed RA-1.7-cyan, but the sound worked, so I went back into CM 5.0.7 and havent had a problem with it after doing a clean install.
My SPL is 1.33.0004

Music speeding up in android?

New here, dont think this has been brought up. Has anyone else had the problem where music played in android sounds like its been sped up? It has a high pitch and the song seems to be a couple seconds shorter than it should. Any ideas?

The same thing happens to me. Weither it is from my sd card or through pandora.

same thing here. it sounds like alvin and the chipmunks!

I'm not entirely sure but I think this is because of the same reason which makes the clock go faster than it should be.
This is because android is set to turbo mode, so that it runs faster and smoother for you guys, but i'm sure the devs will have something sorted out soon so that its at normal speed.
sorry if i'm wrong, but i think that's what the problem is

WHEN this is the problem than guys who have this should read the right posts. You have to try the different Zimages,or in best way the latest. There are no problems anymore with pichtin tracks or turbo mode.

no problems with dan's v1 2.2 froyo build with music. I've always started up android manually via explorer instead of using one of those dual-boot solutions... maybe that'll help you guys?

Which ROM and Radio are you using?

I am running the newest version of wm6.5 and radio version 2.10.50.26. im just too nervous to brick my phone by putting a new rom on it, should that help?

This is related to the robot noise in calls issue.
It is fixed by using a tmous 2.10 base winmo rom.
Search could have told you this....

I had this issue (Chipmunk-esque music playback and robo-voice). Flashing to my current rom fixed both problems.

My radio version is 2.10.50.26 on the stock tmo rom (2.13.531.1) and still get the sped up music and robot voice also running the latest zimage from cotulla.

same here, zimage seem not to solve the problem its also not the turbo mode cuz mi clock is working correct but the tracks still sound to fast. Would really like a fix flashed about 5 roms now but nothing seems to work.

I also appear to get this problem, could this be due to a change in hardware in recent models (i got a replacement HD2 in June).

same here. i just stopped listening to music while on android. the songs sound 10x better on winmo right now.

OK, an update seems i managed to fix it by flashing Dutty's latest test ROM

sound randomly off?

Hey guys, so I've been having s slight issue latley. When someone calls or texts me, there isn't any ring tone playing and the volume is set to 100% and mostly the only way to get the sound back is reboot the device.
Any fixes?
Also, today I had a call from my dad and I accepted the call and I couldn't hear anything. When I called back I didn't hear any beeping either. I rebooted my phone and then it worked. What's up with that?
Should I switch Roms? Or is there something else I could do? Thanks!

I had the same problem. Kept happening intermittently. Tried different roms...didn't seem to fix it. Tried several fixes I found in the forum but no success.
Finished up reflashing the standard htc wm6.5 rom back on and tried boyppc's gingerbread rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970542 and haven't had the problem since.
I did try another android rom before this one....the first call I got coming in didn't ring, so I don't think the 6.5 rom was the issue. Why boyppc rom works when some of the others didn't I don't understand...but it did....so I'm happy.

hmm..that's weird. i'm gonna try CM7 and then i'll see if i have any problems, thanks for a reply though!

I'd be interested to know how you get on. I'm very reluctant to try any others now that mine is working so well.....
I have found that I don't use windows much any more so I might try a nand sd build later on......

[Q] System goes crazy when receiving a phone call

hi all
i have been using nand android builds since day one , and in most of the builds i am having this same issue
sometimes when i receive a phone call the system just hangsout and then gives me a force close msg for the phone application !!
either way , if i force close or not , no further phone calls can be answered and the phone will freeze for about 30 seconds with every call
also when this happens the volume buttons wont modify the volume for the media anymore and the phone wont give any sounds
so is there something i can do to get rid of this ?
i tried android builds based on 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 , miui , sense , no sense , and i have this issue with all of them
again , it happens like 10% of the times
hope i get an answer to this

I want to ask what exactly rom are you using (does it use newest tytung r10 kernel?) and tell you that I have not been experiencing these issues with NexusHD2 2.8 rom (2.3.4).
fpu

i tried typhoon , rafdroid , ndt miui , and plenty more and i think typhoon and ndt miui has the latest kernel

have you ever tried receiving a phone call while the camera application is running
this seems to trigger the issue many times , not always tho

if you have the call recorder running turn it off. it was causing me lot's of problems.

Hi,
I have the same problem.
No matter what kernel.
Already hardresettet and reinstalled everything. Radio, Magldr, Rom, you name it.
I even did format 10 (or what ever it's called)
Anyone else experiencing this?
Will get a logcat later.

Are You using Magldr? I had that problem with mag. Than i switched to cLK. and im okay.

I just recieved a phonecall without problems.
Flashed the .12 radio from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787&highlight=radio
however... My rom feels a bit slower now.
I am playing with it now.
Maybe clearing Dalvik cache will help. Or the issue comes back... Will see.

Got the same problem, tried different ROM's but no result. I'm thinking already to switch back to WM 6.5 :\

Yes that's it. Works fine for me

Mea culpa just today I had the same issue, for first time.
It's nothing major and reboot made it work fine again, but breaks my belief in HD2 as perfect, native-like Android device.

Beside changing of radio, THIS seems to be interesting.
I'm on MAG but considering switching to cLK (for many reasons - fastboot support being one, second that I don't need 99% of MAGLDR features).
Let's see how it all pans out ;-)
fpu

It just happened again! On the new rom... :/
There is a thread, however, stating that it's due to skype.
This can very well be true.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1164058
but I need skype to stay on contact with my girlfriend... why can't android support skype natively instead of sipthings? -.-
Well still... anyone tried clk (instead of magldr) and skype?

Disable "Audible touch tones". It's under Sound in Settings, it did the trick for me.

I thought this was against robot voice?
well what ever. let's give it a try. Thx

In my case, first call after reboot always had the robot voice. To fix it I'd just hang up and call again. But lately on non-Sense ROM's, the first call would go with robot voice and then I would get Force close on the phone app. This fixed it for me.
BTW I have T8585 Leo with 2.12 radio.

For me recieving a call does nothing but a very bad noise. hd2 nearly freezes after that. I cannot hang up most of the times. If I somehow manage to, phone app forcecloses and connection cannot be reestablished until I pull out the battery...
Good old Robotvoice. I wish that was my problem.

i have switched to cLK about 3 days ago and till now i have got no problems at all
