Ringer volume TOO LOW!! - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

I just got the Cingular Siemens SX-66 (using T-Mobile through it) and while setting up the simple things on the phone I noticed that the volume level on the incoming call ringer is REALLY low. I turned it all the way up from the little volume control at the top of the screen but it really did not help much. Is there anything that really can be done? I have tried different ringers to see if any were louder to no avail. Can I somehow import one that is louder or something?

Can't help I'm afraid, I've been looking for a solution to this problem for a while but with no success. I'll be eagerly watching this thread...

Let's solve this together!
OK guys, same problem here. Any body knows if a firmware upgrade will fix this? I'm a hardware engineer so I am so damn tempted to bust it open and find an easy hardware change that will fix this problem for good. If anybody has access to the "Servicing manual" for the blue angel please post a message here! I can then try to figure it out. ANy other hardware hacks, web links to servicing the Blue Angel will be VERY appreciated.
Cheers.
till then ...darn it...missed calls.

I don't think you will find this, (I hope you do) but it seems impossible to implement if you are not the cprog program...

WM6 (or 5) Ringstlye modification? (Shorter Vibrate etc)

Hi there.
I dont think this is specific to my HTC Herm300 but a general Windows Mobile thing, if not please feel free to move this thread to the HTC forum. ;-)
Anyway, I couldnt find a mod or anything for it and apperantly no one else is bothered by this... but I really dont like the choices I have concerning ringstyles.
Theres Vibe than Ring, which produces a much to long vibration followed by the ringtone wiht no further vibration... Or there is Vibrate AND Ring which results in an endless continous Vibration accompanied by the ringtone...
But damn it to hell there is no way to get this thing vibrating every fiew seconds while the mp3 ringtone is playing.
Do I have to live with that or can anyone help me? (or point me in the direction where I can help myself)
And am I really the only one bothered by this?
Anyway, thx for any help that might come...
Cheers
?
I also want an answer to the problem but I didn't know how to describe without sending a reply. lol
No help huh?
Well can anyone confirm this is WM6 related, and not only on Hermes?
I am not giving up on finding a way to alter the ring styles... so maybe I can atleast be shure in which direction I have to look.
I have the same 'problem' on my HTC Touch (Elf) with WM6. I hope there is a way to change it.
I also have the vibrating Problem on my Asus P535 WM6.
I hope that there will be any Solution for this.

Diamond sound issues, firmware upgrade?

Hello!
I bought a Diamond for a few weeks ago, unfortunately it's not working very well. Suddenly at random the audio disappears, often when a USB cable is connected. The two solutions i've found is to listen to an mp3 song in wmp for more than 5 seconds, then the audio will pop and scratch and then work again. That works 2 out of 3 times, and the other times i have to do a soft reset. I upgraded the rom to 1.93.413.3 SVE (that is the swedish version), radio is 1.00.25.05, SPL-1.93.0000. I contacted HTC and after explaining that i've done a firmware upgrade, they told me that it is a hardware issue. I contacted my retailer, but they've taken over a month without any response. So my question now is, have anyone had any issues like this? Should i try other firmwares? Radio? If i do, can i easily restore everything back so that i can leave it for repair without them noticing? Is it a bad idea? If i brick it, i guess i'm screwed..
I know some of these questions are answered here, but i couldnt find anything about my sound issue, except some SMS sound issues, that is not the same problem i am experiencing though.. Also, if someone calls me when i have no sound, neither me or the one i am talking to can hear anything.
Thanks in regards

sounds like a Hardware issue, do anything you can to get in contact with the Vendor, Phone calls, emails anything.
try the attached driver + sound parameters.
taken from ATT_RAPHAEL_1.94.19971 ROM
It seems this driver handle 2 new audio setting files that were not present in the diamond:
FilterFile and PreProcessFilterFile
It is a new sound driver tested on my Diamond and working fine, less glitches, better sound but doesn't change the poor hardware HP unfortunatly.

Can you provide instructions on how to use and what to insert where in the device (diamond)

Hi TekTonik,
I have tried these drivers on my Diamond but it crashes whenever a sound plays. I copied the contents of the OperatorPKG folder to \Windows then replaced the wavedev.dll. I also added the new keys into the registry (FilterFile, PreProcessFilterFile and AcousticFile).
Are you using a cooked ROM with these drivers or did you update them manually? If so, any ideas what I am missing and also which ROM/Radio are using?
Would it be possible to post your registry settings for HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev please?
The reason why I am trying these drivers is in a hope to fix the infamous sound lag which you can read about here:

Hi.
I am also having the same problem. bought a new set, but there is no sound in standby after about 10 minutes. whatever i do, the music player, screen taps, sound settings - still there's no sound.
the only solution is a soft reset - but that too, works for ten minutes, and then again the unit goes deaf n dumb.
Have tried the thread above (to remove the lag), but still, no improvement.
is there a solution to this problem? can anybody guide me? please?

I have exactly the same issue on my SonyEricsson Xperia X1. I really wonder if that's a hardware issue. What I also figured out: When you do the WM Player workaround have a look at the reception indicator. When the sound comes back my reception is lost for a short time. It seems to me the phone module performs a reset.
No Sound on Diamond
I have the exact same problem, and also in my case it only comes back after playing a music file for more than 5 seconds. Has anyone found a solution yet?
I also have the exact problem above on my diamond. Actually, I feel HTC is really not responsible for their product. Their diamond has been released more than 3 months, till now, still no positive feedback to this.
I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THEIR ATTITUDE. IF I CAN CHOOSE AGAIN, I WILL NOT BUY ANYTHING ELSE FROM HTC.
I also got this problem
Hope someone can find out whats doing it, i doubt its a hardware issue
mee to
sadly it also happend to me, but I think it happend when the batery y less that a 50 %
I don't understand htc spirit : make a phone with an awfull HP sound !!! what did they do with theyr diamond ? playing chess ? or phoning , really a shame !

Sounds Stop Working

Searched in several forums but could not find anything, so apologies in advance if I missed it and please post the link.
Intermittently the sounds quit working for all alarms, events, phone, etc... I go into Sounds & Notifications to test and again, no sound. Soft reset corrects the issue, but it will come back again.
No extra media players installed, only the standard from the orignal ROM. I have Lotus Traveler installed which adds a sound event. On another PDA (Touch HD) I have BB Connect installed and it displays the same problem.
FWIW I have also seen this behavior on Kaisers and Touch HDs.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or, even better, a solution.
Sorry I can't help but I've had a similar problem. The slider sound doesn't work! Even after reset! Try changing it and still nothing! The rest of the sounds still works but they seems much quieter than normal! I don't think I've installed anything dodgy! Just seemed to happen! Any help would be great!
Thanks
same issue found in my Diamond as well. Maybe it's an issue in WinMo 6.1 in general
Actually, none of the sounds work! Just makes a noise when you change the volume! Soft reset still doesn't help!
Does anyone know what I could try please?
I have the same problem with my Touch Pro2. Sometimes suddenly the volume goes way down even though it shows its at its max. The volume is really soft and you cant hear much.
Also when I receive certain notifications I hear a small click which is proberly the first 0.01s of the notification sound it tries to play.
Count me in.....same here. Wonder, if it´s a hardware issue or a driver problem.....
Hoping for an official WM6.5 ROM soon...
Thanks for the feedback. I can tell you that this happens with AT&T Tilt running stock ROMs/WM6 too.
I am still searching for an answer and if I find one I will post it.

Volume issue

Really becoming a problem with unlocked HTC Arrive. I have looked everywhere on every forum for a solution to the in adequate volume that I have, especially on the ringer and text. I’ve looked at Reg edits with nothing helping. I have read all about Diagnostic codes but that doesn’t do any good if you can’t get to the volume setting. So my question is, has anyone else ever heard of any fix for this problem. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
