I have an iPAQ 610c, every time I record an audio file with any app (VITO, RESCO, windows notes, etc) it records fine until the screens backlit turns off (not the hole screen turn off, just the light) exactly in that event the recording starts to have a lot of noise like static. I already change the ROM to WM6.1 and the radio to the newest official release, .88 I think.
I contacted HP and they gived to me a new one but this one does the same thing, so this must be on all iPAQs 610c or even on all the 600 series
Give it a try
1.- set the backlit to 10 seconds (this way you'll wait less)
2.-make an audio recording with the windowsmobile notes longer than 10 seconds long
3.-play the file and listen carefully to the second 9 or 10 on the recording
As soon I have some spare time I''l upload some recordings of the problem.
Please sorry for my bad english.
same problem at mine....only thing is that mine isn't modified....original rom and radio...
wrote into HP SUpport forums....

Yes, you are right. Tested with Vito Audio Notes Touch. After backlight is turned off started strange noise bzzzz
It should be a massive attack to HP Support ))
confirmed on 612c Wm6.1
HP called me some days ago and they told me that they will do some tests to make sure there is a real problem on the unit, but after 10 days they havent called back to give me a solution.
My workaround is to use resco audio recorder and make the app turn off the screen before the backlit dims.
The strange part is that when you record a call the problem does not show up, so that makes me think that this is not a hardware problem, or it could be?
Try to record a call and post your results here.
I hope they fix this because is really annoying, I love my 610c exept for that. I think this is a good reason to be complaining.
HP called me for this and they said they will do some tests to verify is a hardware or software problem, as soon as they tell me what is it i'll post it.
this was fixed when i did a flash to WM 6.1 20270 1.4 Rev 1.2 Standard
now when i press the voice record button the screen brightness goes to full power and the screen stays on untill i stop the recording. I dont see this as a fix, bu rather a work around, i'm not sure how much battary life is lost doing it this way.

is there a way to ad this fix to another ROM? a cab or something? I have WM6.1.20273 ESN made By NiZuZen but is has the bug.
sorry i dd not cook this room and i dont know what changes were made to create it. This rom was made by Yevg001.
I did notice i had a "HP call waiting Tone fix", "Arcsoft Codec Plugin" and "IAC Corp BSPropCab" listed in my remove programs that i did not install. These were included with the rom and possibly fixed the recording issues.
those programs are part of hp patches being installed after clean boot by customization engine (OS v1.01.04 update and call waiting fix)
I thought this may be a good syndication thread for listing stuff that is buggy in the new Hero ROM (2.73.*) but worked in the old one.
Let me start:
- headphone jack issue - I didn't see this in the 1.76.* ROM, but now experience it full blown. Plug headphones in, sound redirects from speaker to headphones. Plug them out, sound stays redirected. Major PITA.
- calendar sync - not only is my Hero not syncing with Google Calendar anymore, it's also not displaying any events in the home screen widget, not even the local ones.
- sms widget bug - hit back button after opening a message and Hero cycles through your recently used apps instead of going back to list messages. I'm not even finding this one funny anymore.
- the jumping keyboard - switch from portrait to landscape with the keyboard on screen and it suddenly gets a life of its own.
- wifi disconnects and Hero goes onto HSDPA even with wifi "sleep policy" set to "never".
I've updated to the official ROM with a full wipe.
The speed improvement is not enough for me to live with those annoying new bugs. I guess I'll just go back to 1.76.* and wait for another update.
Anyone with similar thoughts and problems? Some additional, different ones? Let's make list and then just send it to HTC.
I guess it's only fair if you're running a 2.73 ROM, not something super-custom.
Running vanilla 2.73 and I'm not experiencing any of the bugs you mentioned. On the contrary, I had issues getting my Google contacts and calendar to sync with 1.76, 2.73 works flawlessly for me.
As for the SMS widget, I'm just not using it. There are far too many people playing with my phone on a daily basis, and I don't fancy them peeking at my private texts.
All in all, I'm more than happy with 2.73.

works without problems for me...
I'm using the modaco custom rom
I haven't noticed these bugs at the official 2.73.405.5 either...
Keyboard, headphones and SMS works just fine here!
Hi everyone,
I have some problems with the new one. When I log into the market, all it shows is the free app only. Also, the camera, on the previous version I was able to zoom in/out with trackball which I see much easier, in the new one I can’t do that anymore!
Also, I was able to custom a ringtone on my contacts list or groups, but the new version doesn’t allow me to do this too .
So, I am wondering if there is any way to switch between the new versions 2.73.405.5 to the old one 1.76.405.6.
Thanks

Zooming with the trackball indeed isn't possible anymore. But to be fair, zooming messes up your picture even more
On the first page of a contact (named information) I'm still able to change ringtones for that person only, I thought this was easier in the previous version but it still is possible.
As for the wifi, don't have any problems with it, keyboard acts normal to and my trackball isn't flashing 10 min after recieving and reading a text. Also as far as I know I haven't missed a text, huge problem on the previous rom.
Also I don't have the sms widget problem, it just returns to the widget as it's
supposed to.
I don't have any problems at all with the new rom, and the speed improvement is just awesome... Glad I choose My Hero over a Iphone.
Little note: using the official htc rom (not rooted) with a vodafone simcard (unbranded phone)

If you do a flick where the zoom used to be it comes up.but better than that if you press the screen it will focus where you press keep your finger there and it will take the picture.

My Hero syncs fine with google calender, and sms widget bug only happens sometimes or with some special order of commands which I dont use. Havent found the landscape keyboard to jump, but I dont really use it that often.
With the headphone jack unplug redirect thing, I dont believe this is a bug i think it is working as intended, or i hope so at least. THis is how it works on my ipod touch, it is good that the music stops when u unplug the headphones and it is really annoying otherwise to have to unlock the phone and stop the music everytime I need to unplug my headphones. I dont see how this is a PITA? It redirects fine when u want to answer a call.
Bluetooth fix
I was having a lot of problems getting my Hero to pair up with the bluetooth in my car(Honda Civic) it would pair once then even turning discover on , on the phone it would not pair up again, i have flashed the HTC rom update onto my Hero and it pairs everytime straight away, so we are getting somewhere with the Hero bluetooth, now just file transfer and we are away.
I am another that is not seeing any of the reported issues above. In fact I am very impressed with the new version (Orange v2 ROM).

Mine was weird. When I cleaned the whole storage for Calendar, Calendar Widget etc. it did work indeed, and then stopped again all of a sudden.
I've done another factory reset and so far, so good - it works fine again. I've noticed in the debugger (DDMS) that it now is accessing a different URL for my calendar, even though it's the same account as previously. No idea what's caused that, but whatever it was induced the WiFi bug as well.
The update did wipe everything, but maybe the key was do to a factory reset after updating as well? Dunno

Yes, that's expected behaviour, but that's not what I meant
Here's what I see:
- Plug-in headset, sound gets redirected
- Start playback
- Unplug headset, playback pauses
- Start playback
Now it should play via speaker, right? Mine doesn't. It still thinks the headset is plugged in.
Major PITA.
That's how it should look like (in the debugger):
Code:
DEBUG/AudioFlinger(38): setRouting 0 2 -17, tid 38, calling tid 64
INFO/AudioHardwareMSM72XX(38): Routing audio to Speakerphone (0,2)
DEBUG/AudioHardwareMSM72XX(38): rpc_snd_set_device(1, 1, 1)
DEBUG/HTC Acoustic(38): msm72xx_enable_audpp: 0x0007
That's what I see when the bug appears (which is 9/10 times):
Code:
ERROR/MusicUtils(3585): Headset 1:1, 1
I don't think it's hardware related since the OS notices that the headset was unplugged.
stock rom update here
i still have a stock rom on my phone ( the newest) and all above mentioned "bugs" work just fine for me.
the only one i have an issue with after the update is the switching between 3g and edge connections...
in my bedroom at home is the only place i experience this, but it doesnt seem to switch between 3g and edge very nicely at all, looooooong interuuptions and sometimes it just wont go, similar with wifi to mobile data connection.
and the camera is still sh!t. anyone out there planning on fixing this for us less fortunate, mildly retarded, people who cant fend for themselves?
i have never seen a camera in a phone behave so poorly in low light conditions.... any fixes out there for this?

Mine happens like this...
- Start Music with no headphones, comes out of speaker phone
- Plug in headphones, music transfers
- Unplug headphones, music pauses
- Press play again, comes out of speaker phone.
Not sure if you get the same as this, but for me this is perfect and not a bug, if I unplug my headphones I don't want music blaring out of my speakerphone for everyone to hear.
The only issue I've got is that my messaging widget only scrolls the first two texts, and I never use it anyway.
Other than that, love the update - fixed the old headphone / led issue for me

I've experienced some kind of lags at the beginning of a track at the music player. Dunno what caused this problem, but it came up after using the new update a few days...

Everything is working great for me including the calendar sync, etc but my wifi disappeared. It will no longer find networks no matter what I do and no icon on notifications bar
If anyone cares to chime in some ideas to try out? LMK. I posted a thread previously here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563068

Running the Modaco 2.2 version of 2.73, I do not get this problem. With both music player and Spotify, plugging in the headphones diverts the music to the headphones and pulling the plug sends it back to the speakphone.

Dave

the orange update gets 10/10 from me....
the hero is 1000 times beter for me IMO
So I have been trying to figure this out for a while. But I figured maybe we could get some community involvment with it.
If you weren't aware:
In 1.5 you could dial ** on your dialer, hit Call and it would redirect all audio (music, games, notifications) to your paired BlueTooth headset.
This no longer works in 2.1 - if you dial ** you get the 'p' and then when you hit call it almost immediatiely disconnects. But you can hear the audio for a split second in the BT.
If anyone can figure this out - or maybe dig a little deeper into Dialer.apk?
Maybe just a few people typing random stuff into their dialer to see if anything will work.
EDIT:
SOOOOOOOOOOOO
Watching LOGCAT when I dial this it calls a SpecialCharSequenceMGR
MY GUESS:
This one is different than the 1.5 dialer - Maybe tonight I cna merge with success....we shall see. Unless someone else wants to take a look before then.
my question would be whether the dialer in 2.1 got an upgrade. i guess it did since this feature doesnt exist (obvs), so any reason you cant flash on a dialer from 1.5?
i dont know much about how the internals of them work otherwise id help in the search, well after i finish this semester in two weeks. yep yep.
pardon me if my reply was a bit simplistic and if you tried that already, then sorry :/
good luck!
bump.
Updated top post.
Looking forward to your results. Hope you succeed.
On my Hero, long clicking on the device in Bluetooth Settings (in both 1.5 and 2.1), allows me to change the settings of that bluetooth connection including turning on and off both Phone and Media audio.
My only problem is that they have never played well together. If I'm playing media and a phone call comes in, the media properly pauses, but the phone either switches in on the phone's speaker or is totally silent causing me to miss the call.
Bump for the hell of it and a question.
Does anyone know where Dialer is in a 1.5 rom? I downloaded a fresh 1.1 to grab the apk and its not in system/app...wtf???

I think this might be because you have an A2DP capable headset. Mine doesn't give me this option.
Ive been looking
I also have been looking for somthing along these lines, as well as some other members. I started this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=660519 earlier trying to get help, there are actually a few bounties out now....Check it out
Ok so if any one who knows more linux than I do can try to figure out how to pipe the audio from one output to another it would be cool.
I was thinking it would be something lile MediaPlaybackService | AudioHardwareMSM72XX
But I am not sure if that is even remotely close. It doesn't work for me, I guess we just need to get the right services.
Hello everyone,
I've just installed JB CM10 RC2 by PolishVodka, ROM works fine, but i can't hear the voice of person I call. I have also flashed all fixes included in main thread, but it does not solve my problem. Of course before installation I have fully wiped my phone via Recovery (latest verion), resized partitions etc. On GB/ICS roms I haven't noticed this problem. I would like to use this JB rom as my daily, so please help me!

Would you mind if I post about PolishVodkas rom here? My problem may be somewhat related to yours: the sounds (except music) are always on the speaker, even if headphones are plugged in. ANd when there is a call incoming the phone behaves like headphones are unplugged and plays all sound through speaker, thats mean music AND the ringtone of icoming call.
If this rom werent so fast and stable I would just forget about it and flashed something else, but I really would love to stay with it. PolishVodka - hope you read it.

You're welcome, P.G.R I have reported my problem directly to PolishVodka . He told me, that some users have encountered described problem with phone calls, but on his phone everything works fine, so it's pretty hard for him to find the source of this bug. Anyway I have good news - during the call let's try to set the volume higher or lower by +/- buttons. I've done it once and problem disappeared permamently I haven't tested headphones, but maybe this little PolishVodka's trick solves all sound problems

Good, but, meanwhile, Ive returned to AOSP2 and it is super fast, its weird that no one uses it as a base for their 2.3.7 roms (most seems to base their work on SDSL, which was always too "jerky" for me...)
That explains why I got no sound while I was getting called.
