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.

hi, crystalrf,
have you found a way to boost the volume yet?
Hello All,
I get my SX66 and I found out that my hardware keyboard is not working correctly. The problem is that not all keys working. Some of them I have to press very hard to get a letter. does anyone have similar problem? Any solution? Is there any nice pda service company that could repair it?
best regards

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 !

Good Morning,
Unfortunately my HTC Touch Pro2 has stopped working properly.
Everything works fine except microphone and speaker when I answer a call (or call someone). I can still communicate via speakerphone, but that's rather inconvenient.
Is there anyway I can fix my phone?
(it's out of warranty)
Thanks for all suggestions,
Alec Taylor
Isn't this the answer to your problems?

Thanks JackOS (I use your ROMs BTW), but that didn't fix the problem...
The other caller/call-receiver can hear me, but I can't hear them.
Please tell me what I can do to fix the problem (I tried the .cab, and when that didn't work, I tried the manual Phone->Advanced setting change)
Thanks,
Alec Taylor
If you use my roms there is no need for the fix I provided.
Looks like you have a hardware failure. There is nothing I can do about it.
Did you ever find a fix? My phone started having this issue yesterday.

If it's a hardware issue, there isn't much to be done software-wise... as Jackos clearly states.
Good luck.

Most probably your Flex ribbon cable is going bad.
I have had my glide for a few months now and have noticed a problem that either I need to be able to fix or I will have to ge a different hone.
I have persistent issues with multile buttons on the hysical keyboard that don't work roperly. As you may have noticed, the "p" key is the biggest offender. When I press it sometimes even when I get a tactile resonse from it (the click) it doesn't type the letter. The p has caused the most issue followed by the backsace button, but I have the issue with most of the keys to a lesser extent.
Does anyone know if there is a way to get at the underside of the keyboard? I'm thinking that I may be able to fix it if it is just some dirt that got under the keys somehow. Or maybe it is covered under some kind of warranty.
Thanks guy, I would hate to have to leave this captivate glide family
Does anyone have any advice?
