There are some significant bugs in latest CM9 defy.
1) samba filesharing doesn't work, as I realized there is a problem with the wifi communication
2) superuser can't save any accepted application rights
3) lock screen rotation
4) call blacklist extremly slow or doesn't work
5) Beats audio doesn't work perfect, sometimes I heard some static noise during the Poweramp playback
6) iGo Primo 2.0 can't find GPS signal and the volume buttons doesn't work
i dont think cm9 for defy is getting developed anymore, try cm 10, its much better

It seems like on most of the newer Android Nand and ClockworkMod builds the hard keys on the wired headset don't work. Does anybody know if there is a way to fix this? It would be great if there was an apk or a zip file that I could install to fix this, or better yet have it built into the ROM like it used to be.
If no such fix exists then does anybody know of a CWM (preferrably Desire based) build where the wired headset works?
I just tried the new CoreDroid rom and it doesnt work. Anybody using a rom where the wired headset works?
Also, I just heard back from the Revolution 2.3 rom developer and he said he would test and see what he could do. That sounds promising.
Concur - this is essentially needed for listening to music.
I hope a solution can be found
ps: on first rafdroid 1.0 revision It was working but with all new nand desire hd based ROM since 1.72 I think nothing work only voice recognizing ...
Ok, I'm pushing that thread up cause we really need headset support. I think we need to get organized to offer proper bug-reports. Like that, dev's will be more inclined to work on this.
It is indeed not possible to use the "stock" headsets with Android ROMS/NAND. It's one of the other thing that WP7 proove it was not impossible to achieve (like wake up lag or 720p recording), it just need some work. In WP7, the headset button work (and are used for increasing/decreasing the volume).
This is the behaviour I encountered with EVERY ROM (Sense, CM 6.1 and Ginger) and EVERY PLAYER I tried (Stock Android, Stock Sense, MusicMod, PlayerPro and ³) :
While the stock headset offer "Play/Answer", "Next" and "Previous" buttons, none of them work. To be more specific : they work the first time you press them for me, then that's it; that is only the NEXT button actually.
The first time I try the NEXT button it behaves as it configured in the Player used (ex : in PlayerPro, Volume Down for a quick press, Next track for a long press). The second time you press, it is no longer working.
I think (but I'm not sure) that the Play/Pause/Answer" button also work once. After that, impossible to answer a call from the headset which is A REAL problem actually. The time you reach for the HD2 in your pocket, you missed it.
I don't recall the Previous working at all.
Please, report any other behavior. And if you have tried other headsets, don't hesitate to also comment on their behavior.
It's really annoying for people who uses the HD2 as a music player.
Thanks !
My headset works for about 5 minutes and then it would crash my phone
Latest raf kernel (1.7) has the headsets working. Not super reactive at first but after a few press, it works fine.
At last !
Hey Everyone,
I'm running Taboonay 2.0 (with xoom wpa_supplicant & gps.conf patch applied) on a A501 and I have noticed a couple of issues.
1. Internal Microphone Gain level is quite low making voice recognition and recording unusable. I've tried various settings tools to see it could be increased but it seems to be at maximum already. The Mic opening is unobstructed.
2. Brightness control in both Auto and Manual setting is not functioning. I have confirmed that the light sensor is working ok.
I installed the custom ROM almost immediately after receiving the tablet, so I don't know if these things worked prior to the upgrade.
Faulty hardware or software (HC3.1 / 3.2) related.? Any suggestions. ?
Cheers,
Got the same issue with mic, my gf keeps complaining that she hardly hears me when we do gtalking (>.<) but when I did the voice to text and voice recognition, it was ok according to db
The brightness control is ok to me
hope someone'd come up with the solution for the mic
Are you running taboonay 2.0 also. ?
i used Xoom, Galaxy, etc. and now the new 3.2... they have the same issues >.<
I also have the same issues the mic is low and neither brightness settings work, I also didn't notice if they were ok before either, I hope someone can shed some light on this, or in this case dim it a bit
I ran Tobonay 2.0, and didn't notice an issue. But I can tell you, Auto-brightness seems to effect cooked roms. You'll see some variation.
If you're running a cooked rom, try flashing Thor's Kernel 3.5 or 3.9r3.
I ran 3.5 when running Taboonay 2.0 and the mic seemed fine with Skype. I never run auto brightness on the display though.
Harkon 1.0 with Thor's 3.9r3 seems to be ok. But then again, I use a set brightness. Mic is fine.
Hello I'm facing some problems when I connect the headphones (standard one), it works fine for some time then it start to pause/start/switch next/switch previous the music quickly, it also opens the program that's currently playing the music, just driving the phone crazy. While this is happening I can't play/pause/switch next/switch previous the music by pressing the little microphone (that's used to receive your voice when you get a call while using headphones) (Pressing one time pause/start music | Pressing two times switch to the next music | Pressing three times switch to the previous music), but after some time this problem stop (Still can't play/pause/switch next/switch previous using the microphone ), then when you think everything will be fine it start to happens again...
Did anyone face this problem before? How can I solve this?
I got MB525 + CyanogenMod 7.2 Stable + Winamp 1.2.7 Pro (I've tried with default music player, but the problem still happens)
Bump, I really need help with this
Try with a different pair of headphones?
I have an HTC Inspire 4G and this problem happens to me also.
It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does happen I notice that the normal headphones icon has changed to the microphone headset icon. The headphones I use don't have a microphone so I'm not sure why it would detect a mic.
Then the voice control comes up and the phone starts going crazy, calling previous contacts, playing/pausing/skipping songs at random...
Any ideas on a fix?
^ The same happens to me, but Defy's default headphones have microphone, sometimes it shows as headphone only and sometimes as headphones + microphone (as you said)(Pictures showing what I mean below). While it was showing headphone only, I tried to call my phone and the microphone worked fine. While it's showing as headphone only the problem won't happen, but when it shows as headphones + microphone it's prone to get crazy randomly
Headphones only:

Headphones + microphone:

I've tried with 2 others headphones: One of them didn't seem to reproduce the problem, but other reproduced it all the time
I've uninstalled the default music player + disabled the opition "Let Winamp control the headphones" in Winamp, seems that it helped a bit, but still happens
My phone's warranty will end in November 25th, so I need a answer fast: Should I send it to repair or is there anyway to fix this?
I have found that certain ROMs will do this more than others, so maybe you should try to flash a different ROM?
Aww, CyanogenMod 7.2 is so lovely... Default FroYo is bad, CM9 and CM10 still unstable
Which ROM are you using?

I'm running the latest CM10.2 Nightly of the MicroSD on my Nook Color. I'm really liking it over CM9(what I had before) but I've run into one major issue, Headphone Volume. I opened up DSP Manager and and cranked the equalizer up in the Speaker category and my speaker got nice and loud, but when I try to do the same for the headphones nothing works. Changing the Headset category's equalizer has zero effect on anything, and changing the other categories didn't help either. I can't apply any audio affects to the headphone jack. I found this thread on the CM forums, but couldn't find any of the mentioned files or directories. I suspect things have been changed and moved around in Android 4.3. The only volume boosting method I've found that works is by playing the video/audio file in MX Player and use it to boost the volume, but that only helps marginally and is zero help in any other app.
Is there any way I can get this to work?
There is a thread over at http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/73393-low-headphone-volume-using-nightlies/ about your issue.
I couldn't get mine to work because I did not find the file mentioned in the post.

I already linked to that thread in my post and said that it didn't contain any answers for CM10.2. All the files mentioned in it don't exist in the latest 10.2 nightlies.

I'm running 10.2.1 stable on nook color and have the same problem but it also affects my internal speaker too. Only thing I've found that works is Volume+ 2.0. I had same problem with CM7 and their original version was the only fix that worked on that as well.
I really don't understand why we're not given direct access to set the max volume settings since this is a problem for some users in EVERY version of android. I get why but it should be available in the hidden dev settings with a warning that you can blow your speakers/headset up if not careful.
Anyway...you can get VolumePlus v2.0 from their website free. androidaudiohacks.com (first post, can't post links) Its a beta version and I've seen some bugs but it works to fix low volume on my NC running CM10.2.1. I know his original vol+ is in the app store but I'm not sure about v2. You need v2 for jellybean.
Just so you're aware, sometimes the boost and or EQ switches don't stay in the on position but they still seem to be working fine. Also the speaker boost settings seem to work on both my speaker and headset. So if you just try setting the HS settings and nothing happens try the speaker settings. Hope this helps some.

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the info. I had known about Volume+ but ignored it in this case because last I checked they couldn't get it working past Android 4.1. I'll try it later. Thanks for the help.
So the problem is that no matter what custom ROM I use the mic volume is incredibly low. Talking on the phone I cannot be heard at all, if I put it on loudspeaker I can be heard faintly. Same problem for any app that uses the microphone, like sound recorder, recording a video, it barely picks up any sound.
But what's strange is that everything works perfectly on on Stock. I've installed custom ROMs on this before and last used cm10 before I upgraded way back. But now the problem also exists on that CM10 ROM. Any ideas how to fix it?
Additionally I've tried disabling the google now search listening (which fixed the same problem on my OPO) but does not work here. I've tried the following ROMs: CM10, CM11, CM12 all official nightlies and Crdroid 5.1.1.
Very frustrating as otherwise CM12 works perfectly and I intend to give this phone to someone!
So testing it further I found out that it works fine using google now and search. So either the internal microphone is disabled or maybe noise cancelling is messed up.
