HELP!! The Speaker only makes sound on incoming calls, the rest of the time the sound is going to the headphones
I will suggest PIMBACKUP on storage card and Hard reset
can I Assume you have the headphones plugged in, if so, you will only hear the incomming call on the speaker, if you unplug the hadphones then all sound will come through speaker.

My HTC x7500 can´t play any sound (except incoming call ringtone)the porblem is in Jack plug, i not using any headphones but the HTC, send all sounds events for jack plug
Please help me!!
Thanks in advance.
any help
good morning
im not sure if it is really helpfull but on the htc universal there was a problem that sometimes when you unplug the headphones the connection in the headphonejack of the device still does not switch back, so the universal thinks the headphone is still connected and sends all audio output to the (not longer connected) headphone. some user have to disassemble their device (or send in for repair) other (like me) could fix the problem with pluging/unpluging the headphones one more time so the contact works as it should. this bug is one of the reasons why i changed to bluetooth headphones.
hope this helped a bit mad
This problem has been arround for years, not just on the Universal but on most (all?) HTC phones.
latest post I could find on the subject http://www.modaco.com/content/Smartphone-General-Discussion/264524/Locked-in-headphonesmode/
Can anyone help me?
My Athena speakers doesn't play sounds anymore...
I tried reset, hard reset and even changing ROMs, but all failed....
But the strange thing is, when receiving a call, the speakers play the ringtone loud and clear! But the speakers only work during an incoming call
This may indicate that the hardware speakers are still ok...
The headset jack is working too...
My theory is that, the 3.5mm headset port hardware might be grounded, "fooling" the system that a headset is plugged in,thus disabling the external speakers...I hope so...
Is there a driver working when a headset is plugged in? Maybe disabling the driver might give way for the external speakers to work...
Can anyone help? Thanks in advance...
My speakers are now ok....
Strangely, my speakers are now ok....
Don't install/run Xguru...It's somehow the culprit....
hi,
I have been using a Nokia phone with a 3.5 mm audio jack to connect it to my aux-in of the car and listen to music as well as make or take calls. The phone mic picks my voice quite well and I hear back the calling party through the car speakers.
Does the same work with HTC Touch HD too?
Update: I have connected the HTC Touch HD to my car's Aux in and it works well with the THD's mic picking up my voice easily. I had echo on a couple of calls but would like to check for its recurrence to believe that's some problem with unit or with the connectivity.
Afraid not mate.
When you plug something in the earphone socket, it assumes there's a mic plugged in too, like when you plug in a hands-free kit.
I've got exactly the same setup and didn't click what the problem was the first time I took a call. I just sat there like a pratt, shouting "HELLO" at my phone! lol
There may be a software workround for this, but not that I'm aware of.
I use the same approach.. but currently even though I am using a Belkin cable to a pretty neat deck.. the sound is completely off.. Treble is too high.. and My faithful kenwoods which would handle the full Volume of my N95-2 with ease are now cracking up.
Any ideas??

Ideally, you should have the phone volume at about 75% of its max (between the phone volume itself, and the volume on the music player application), and control overall volume from the deck. If it still sounds dodgy after that, mess about with the equalizer on whatever player you're using, or the htc audio booster.
If anything, mine's a little quiet, but I've not tried messing with output volume settings in Tweak HD. I tend to have to have my deck turned up about 70-80%, whereas I normally have the radio at about 20-30%.

Asking this question to all. Is anyone aware of any software to use HTC Touch HD mic while using a 3.5 mm headphones through its audio jack.
not both speakers and mic are off when in headset mode
it's a hardware thing
but like with htc headsets you can connect external speakers and mic to the conntors and it works
easy way is to tear the headset apart and solver in the stuff you want to the connector which came with the headset

Mine works fine setup like this. I've got a 3.5m jack coming out and going into the back of my headunit. I can make calls without a problem. The phone seems to realise the connected jack doesn't have a mic so uses the internal one.
The first time I tried it though the person at the other end couldn't hear me but finally worked out this was because the cradle I was using was blocking the mic on the bottom of the phone! I quick readjustment of the cradle and everything was fine.
Sound quality when playing tunes has always been fine but the voice quality aint that great, the person at the other end sometime complains about echo.

Hmm.... I'll have to have a play with that then, as it was a total failure for me previously. I definitely didn't have the mic blocked, as my cradle holds the phone by the sides.
Cheers for that - I'll have a play about.
How about something like this?

(iPhone example but googling "3.5mm microphone output" finds you more, all about £3)
"How about something like this?"
there is not standart for how 3.5mm jacks with mics work as in the width of the ring and such
doubt very very very much that iphone converter would work with anything but an iphone
Thats a good idea. I havent tried this myself but its not experience that the hadware needs an attached mic when plugging the 3.5mm into speakers. I use high quality headphones with no attatched mic to listen to music on the HD and can take calls via the phone or skype by using the headphones and the phone mic.

Same setup as me for the last 12 months. I have to play around with the volume setting on the HU / HD all the time - its not ideal but the internal mic seems to pick up voice fine (and echo!).
People are having issues hearing me when its connected to auxiliary port, when I unplug it and turn on speaker, mike works a lot better. Am I missing something ?

Speakerphone boosts your Mic gain up. Its so when you leave it on normal phone, your phone just pics up your voice instead of everything in the room.
This does not happen every time and a reboot seems to fix it for a little while however....
When I plug my headset in (no mic on headset) no one can hear me regardless of the phones mute setting. If I unplug the headset everyone can hear me again. Ending a call and starting a new call doesn't resolve this issue either. I have to do a full reboot or not use a headset. It is very annoying. Anyone heard of this issue before?
Seems like the phone is registering the headset as having a microphone when it doesn't. How many bands are on the plug? Stereo headphones generally only have 2 plastic rings on the plug, while headphones with a microphone will have 3. If the headphones plug has 3 bands or isn't sitting in the jack correctly it might be registering as having a mic when it doesn't.
There are only two bands on the headphones
