Everytime I get a call, the WAV ringtone I use is very jumpy and skippy. I also get the same with my TomTom sat nav software when voice instructions are given.
Has anyone experienced of this or does anyone know what's going wrong and how I can fix it?

Perfect
Already had that program installed to sort my GPRS problems... didn't know it did that as well.
Sounds normal now... thanks
Hi all.
I have the X9500 Shift and noticed a few days ago that its audio capabilities stopped working. I don't listen to music or watch videos very often, so I'm not sure when the problem began, but I do know that it used to work (my unit is about 3.5 weeks old). At the moment, both the speakers and headphone jack do not produce sound regardless of volume settings.
The audio drivers are up-to-date, I've done several system restores, and I just reset the Shift back to its factory settings using the recovery partition. I thought that would've done the trick, but it didn't. The sound is just gone.
Could something have happened internally to "break" the audio functions? I'm not a tinkerer/hacker/modder, so cracking open the Shift isn't an option for me. The problem isn't major since I don't use the Shift for multimedia purposes, but I'd still like everything to work. Any suggestions?
Thanks
The snapvue side controls the audio - have you hard reset it?
hmm sounds like hardware problems.maybe related to the headphone jack inside the unit. i've seen these things happened with laptops, most of them because of poor electric/mechanic contacts or simply a manufacturer flaw. you should send the unit back to warranty repairs, this will most probably mean dissasembling the shift.
anyway both headphone and internal speakers are linked via the same controller and audio amplifier. could be those chips that give you the problem, or it could be that jack i was talking about. let the service guys sort them up and.. good luck.. and.. be patient.. IT WILL TAKE TIME.........

Thanks for the tip. It didn't fix my audio issue, but it did make me discover that snapvue was gone! I pressed the snapvue button and was stunned to see nothing but a nice blank screen. If it wasn't for cmonex's solution, I would've come back crying about how to get snapvue back.
@ facdemol: I was afraid of that. My husband said something about the amp yesterday but I was hoping I'd hear different here. Thanks for your help.

you mean you had to use -mode0 option to exit bootloader?
if yes... wonder how the hell it got to bootloader.

Truth be told, I didn't really know what I was doing! It was my first time ever using cmd.exe, so I just ran through some of the ecshift.exe commands and checked to see if snapvue was back. I don't remember what I did to get it back (the reset command alone didn't work), but I know I entered and exited bootloader (unnecessarily, I guess!) at some point.

Yep. I'm sure my Shift feels terrible for not letting me know that it decided to be a mime!
HTC said to RMA it but I don't think I'd be able to stand all the time apart. As much as it sucks not to have everything working like it should, I'm just going to live with it. Besides, the idea of my Shift becoming a mime is growing on me. I like gadgets with ambition.
EDIT: I don't know how it happened, but all of a sudden the sound is working. Must've been my acceptance of the Shift's mime dream!

nice to see such passion
if the sound ever stops working again let me know, we can test out what it is that fixes it.
sound problem
I have same problem with sound on the htc shift. When i startup vista with powercable then sound works. When i startup vista withouth powercable then playing sound does not work. Also the button to the shift controll center gives an error when trying to start up. Sound recording still work when playback is not functioning. When i go to device manager and disable the sound driver and enable the sound driver again then playback works again and also the shift control center works again.
Perhaps something to do with energy settings ?
I have installed vista sp1
Hope anyone has a solution.

hi i tooo face exactly the same problem ... though sometimes it replicates itself even when shift is on AC power ....
I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the control center, updating realtek sound drivers to latest and what not... but this problem keeps on cropping every now and then forcing me to do restarts and restarts untill it corrects itself ... there is definitely some conflict in the applications.. the point is to look out where ... all others having the same problems may give ur views ...
i have the same problem with the headphones...the sound driver is updated but i havent been able to solve it. maybe its hardware problem...however, the unit speakers are working very well. hoping there's a software tweak to make the headphones worked. really dont subscribe to the idea of opening the unit...i view it as a last resort.
its an audio driver conflict
disable the audio driver
enable the audio driver again
then all suddenly works again
after rebooting vista withouth power cable then same problem again

As someone said earlier, the sound is controlled from WinMo side, and there seems to be some incompability issue, I'll get back to you guys later, if I manage to find out exactly with what it is...
commanager problem
i have the same problem with commanager it dosent load sometimes
sound problem
Well, I have another sound problem. I have all the sound in vista but no sound in snapvue. I have change another windows mobile, I have changed the radio still no sound. Anybody can help. Thanks
My speakers stopped working ages ago but as I still got sound through the headphones I figured it was just another design flaw in the Shift and live with it.
Then this morning I almost spilt my coffee as I was fiddling round in Speech Recognition and the thing started talking at me (out of the speakers!) WTF?!
Anyway, I had to log off and on to get something to work and no more sound from speakers again
I wasn't going to be defeated so I re-enacted everything I remember doing and after a while found out that if I put in a pair of headphones and then take them out again.. I have sound
Weird. Any ideas? or is just dodgy hardware?
I recently flashed to dcd's 3.2.6 and cannot seem to get sound from any third party applications, especially pandora radio. Does anybody have any ideas on how to get the sound going? I also couldnt get anything to play in windows media player. Thanks
I'm not sure about your sound problem, but I'd be very grateful if you'd tell me how you got pandora working on your titan.
Thanks!
I am having a similar problem...I get sounds just fine, however after about an hour or two my audible alerts quit working and I have to soft reset. Sounds like we might both be having some of the same issues. If I come across anything I will let you know what I find.
it might have been something on the rom or that you installed i put the srs wow hd progam on mine it said there were no drivers and colsed the program out after that .. no sound in any way shape or form .. even after soft reset so .. i hard reseted and that time did not install wowhd and no problems but thats kinda a shame i really liked that program on my tilt
hi there
i have a Hermes, exactly the T-Mobile version..
anyway it worked fine till one day i got no sound at all, no mp3 no notifications, nothing....
except the boot up sound... checked the forums, seems it's a common problem, and i figured that the rear speaker works (since the boot up sound comes from it), the speaker cable is connected so i have no clue... if it would be broken, than the boot-up sound wouldn't come at all from the rear speaker, riight?
changed like 5-6 ROMs so far, from 6 to 6.5, no changes with sound...
any clue guys what to do?
I'd need to solve this asap...
thx for any solution
can please someone at least confirm me if my rear speaker is dead or not?
cos i hear the boot up sound from it but no other sounds...
please ,its urgent, thx
Well, the first thing that i would consider doing is backup my important data and do a hard reset....why don't you try that too....?
okay
got from ebay a new speaker... changed it and it doesnt work either...
hard reset and changing the ROM (6-7 of them) didn't help...
at beginning the sound could be heard at boot only while playing music, ringing and that stuff was mute... after 2 days the sound at boot disappeared too...
so, does anyone have a solution? when i plug the microUSB to 3.5mm adapter i can hear the sound on my earphones, but there is no sound when played normally on the ppc itself...
can anyone help me to solve this? where could be the problem?
thanks
okay...
going mad really... now i flashed an original AT&T US rom (although i have a tmobile EU) and guess what.... i hear the sound back again, but only at boot up... other sounds in winmo (ring, mp3, music, programs) are dead... can't hear anything although the volume is set at max...
so... i assume this can't be a hardware issue..
before this ATT i changed like 6 more different roms and all with same problems... now i have sound only at bootup... does anyone know where is the problem and a possible solution?
thanks
cmon guys... don't tell me no one has no idea what to do.....
i've been flashing and reflashing the roms but so far i can get only the boot up sound... any other sound is not available.. why? how to repair it?
thx
it's funny to see you can ask sometimes questions no one knows to answer
you've tried it by using the head set...?
whether the results were the same as well (no sound)..?
when using a headset (extUSB) there is sound and everything is normal...

you'd better check the speakers on your device , may be the connecting cable is damaged and if necessary you replace ....
I have the same problem here!!!Have you fixed that??Can you suggest me something, please???
Hi all... new here
I also have the same problem on my AT&T 8525. The Telephone speaker works but the phone doesn't ring or give audio notifications any longer. I've done a hard reboot 3 times. Bluetooth audio works fine. But no speakerphone. If anyone has a solution we'd appreciate it!
Thanks!!!
