Phone ringer is silent! - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

My phone wont ring though, BIZARRE, this is not to do with the rom though as i think it was happening with schaps, really really strange.
Any ideas, I just get a phone icon where the signal strength bar is showing handset. No callerid flashing up, not even an option to accept the incoming call. I go to phone options and test the ring tone and it plays just fine.
maybe i should reflash the radio, on 1.50 at the mo which i recently flashed to downgrade from 1.51, any ideas?
maybe i miss something totally obvious.

bumppppp? anyone?

same happening to mine on ultra ultra lite re-furbished
i had to flash another rom, then it worked. when i flashed back to same rom it didnt work again. the problem started after i added some cabs and did my regular tweaks. even with the fresh install of the same rom after flashing another rom it still didnt work.. i even changed radios

i'm on ultra lite, and it seems nice. So you saying i should flash another rom then come back to ultra lite?

Ok,
I just reflashed schaps, then flashed ultra lite.
I STILL have this wierd problem, what's going on?
Is my fone knackered? Not much good if it don't ring!

the rom has been discontinued and he is fixing it
known bug.....wait until new relase

shame it's a nice ROM, nice un' quick. fixed yet ?

same here..
I noticed that no sound was coming out of the phone when i did a soft reset and the Schap's Rom boot up with the animation + sound didnt sound. Also my speaker phone does not work. Basically and audible sound does not work!!!! i tried flashing it with dutty's rom, still same problem.. any ideas?

Hope this helps in resolving this issue!
Hi. I've run into this issue myself too. Here's my environment:
Cooked ROM via Pandora's Kitchen 7.1 with 3.61 OS
Using Dutty's Touch Dialer (2G) option in BuildOS
Everything was fine with the ringer for a whole week. I then decided to be a bit adventurous and went to look for a 3g dialer because the Touch one is only 2G. I then settled for Schen's 3G dialer 2.0 and followed his instructions in installing it (install OEMSign2007cert.cab first, then the dialer, which was the one with the dialer directory option). I didn't install any colored background cabs as provided by his package.
When I tested the dialer (outgoing portion), it seemed fine. I couldn't test the 3G option because we don't have 3G here yet. The problem began when I received my first call.
I was able to hear the incoming call beep through my BT headset, but that was the only indicator of an incoming call, in addition to the phone icon above the signal meter in the top bar signifying an incoming phone call. Besides that, there were no other indicator such as a pop-up window showing incoming caller's info, phone ringing, or even the vibrate function. I have my phone set to vibrate and ring with the Ringer-Vision.wma as the default ring tone.
I tested the vibrate and ring setting in the phone configuration panel and both the vibration function and ring tone worked. I tried several configurations such as vibrate only, ring only, etc, in addition to other various ring tones of different format (wma, mid, wav). All resulted in success in the phone configuration panel, but in failure when an incoming call came in.
To test the phone function, I used a land line, a cellular line, and SkypeOut. All three resulted in the same failure observed above.
Given that the only thing changed after that week was the 3G dialer, I proceeded to remove it and reboot. It reverted back to the Touch 2G dialer. When the phone rebooted, I retried the above tests and all resulted in the pop-up dialog with incoming caller information (plus the two softkey functions), vibration function, and the proper ringtone.
With the above results, would it help you guys in further diagnosing and fixing this problem? We are slated to have 3G within the next few months and I would like to be able to use this function.
Thanks!
Edit update: One other thing is that I tested the above both with and without my BT headset on.
Quakie

I do understand what you are talking about how you tested out the ringers in the phone options menu.. but for me any type of sound does not work, i ran tests there no sound, speaker phone does not work, MP3 do not sound. The sound only works through a head set. And when im on a call i could hear the other person and vise versa. So the problem is the speaker just went out after a couple of days of having Schap's rom. I tired flashing another rom a couple of days after. No luck. Any ideas?
-thanks

Sound Problems

I've had a O2 XDA Orbit for about 3 months now without any problems, but it seems to devloped a strange fautl today.
This morning (around 7am) the alarm went off as usual, but come about 10 when I tried to make a phone call the call was placed but I could not hear the other person (and she could not hear me). I checked out the phone and noticed that both volume sliders where set to off, changing them and I still could not get any sound out of the device.
In Settings Sounds & Notifications when I press the play button theres no sound, and trying the built in sound/video/midi results in no sound.
Oddly when someone calls, I changed the ring tone to an mp3 wich will play, but again I cant hear the caller, or they hear me.
I've done a soft reboot, with no help, before I tired a hard reset I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas?
I'm having exactly the same problem. If anyone has any advice regarding this I'd be greatly apperciated!

no sound from built in loud speaker

OK this happened the other day while out driving... at first i didn't notice... i was using my P3300 GPS driving far from home. (tossed tomtom which was useless for china and installed mapking)... anyway i was driving along merrily some 500kms from home, when i noticed that the GPS failed to verbally warn of a speed camera some 300m ahead, that i had manually input on a previous trip in the same location the weekend before. i had been using the GPS all day given that i had driven the 500kkms since 3am, so i hadn't changed any settings or nothing on the HTC.. but just thought at the time it was odd, but continued on... (the phone was plugged into the cars recharger) when later i noticed that i had recieved a sms, but wasn't aware of it since there was no sound... hmmm. so i stopped the car, and checked the phones settings... all seemed in order... both the phone and handset were on audible/sound and set to the highest audio level... but decided to change to vibrate mode, just to force some change, then after shutting off the GPS i powered the HTC down. waited a minute or so then powered up the HTC again... went to the handset/phone settings which were on vibrate mode and changed them back to audio and high settings...
still no sound, ok so i did a soft reset, and still the problem prevailed. i have tried to change the ring tones to something different (just the standard ringtones that came bundled with the phone), with no difference. i've gone to complete silent mode and both powered down and soft reset but still the problem is there, just no sound through the loud speaker. when i get a call & turn on the loudspeaker nothing... can't hear a damn thing. i've tried every possible combination... i have used SKtools & checked the registry just in case something weird had taken place, but the registry seems in order...
i checked mapking and made sure the audio option was selected for audible speed camera warnings -just in case, and it was fine...
if i plug in the ear piece no problem, can hear fine. if i use my bluetooth ear piece also no problem. the ringtones are standard, so nothing new there... also the other observation i have noted is that when i go to alter the default/standard backgrounds via the today page from "windows default" to either the standard "guava bubbles" or "HTC_default", the background remains as the standard blue of "windows default"
i'm looking at probably most likely having to do a hard reset, but if i can avoid doing so that would be great, as i want to keep all my contacts, my sms's and more importantly i have a shiet load of software/apps installed, plus some custom registry hacks, so that i'm able to view/read chinese on the WM5 English OS. none of which i'm looking forward to having to reinstall should the hard reset be my only option...
the phone hasn't missed a beat... its 4 months old, i haven't upgraded the ROM, nor gone for the WM6 upgrade due to the fact that i have so much software on-board that isn't compatible with WM6 yet. my view is... why fix something that aint broke???
anyone else had this issue with the loud speaker just kind of stopping...?
as i say it had been working fine and was in use for hours and hours that day when all of sudden ithere was no audio sound from the loud speaker. but nothing had changed...
any ideas???
additional...
...just to clarify one point concerning the wallpaper... that problem with the wallpaper/background has happened since the problem developed with no sound on the loud speaker, so that makes me think it might be a registry issue/conflict and not a hardware issue... however when i choose a different wallpaper like a photo etc, it displays. the problem seems to be with the 3 standard wallpaper/backrounds
I use the GPS alot with volume at max and my speaker died after 3 months. I sent it in for repair under warranty after an unsuccessful hard reset.
same thing happened with my mda 2 - speaker is blown most likely - di dyou live near london? if so go to southall it will cost you £20 and they fix it on the spot

There is no sound from speaker

Hi guys. Untill today i was using my BA without no problem. I use WM 6.5-R5 when someone call me the phone ringing and i can hear the sound coming from the speaker, but when i answer it there is no sound from the speaker. when i try to play an mp3 there is no sound too. when i call someone there is no sound i can not hear the dial tone or the persons voice. the speaker works only when receiving a call and there is only ringing sound. it happens suddenly. it was working very normal untill today. i just flash the rom and there is no change still no sound. what is the problem? does anybody know?
1. check the system volume in the task bar, maybe the right bar is up and the left one is down, that would cause that the only sound you can hear is your ringtone, and nothing else
2. if that is the case try putting the left one up, if that works and there is still no sound, check again, maybe it lowered itself, in that case, re-flash your device (occured to me once)
3. if both points aren't applicable, look up the settings for sounds & notifications (very unlikely)
i personally believe it is no. 2, as i had that issue myself just a few weeks ago.
i checked everything about sound but nothing changed, then suddenly it come back to normal :S now there is no problem thanks anyway

Notification Sounds / Vibrations

So I had a TP2 (from Telus) for approximately 2 months with the stock ROM. I put some custom ringtones on it, and set it up to play a sound and vibrate on incoming calls, incoming SMS, incoming e-mail.
When I first start the device, everything works fine for a while, however, after some period of time (varies) the audible alerts for SMS and e-mail stop working...still works for incoming calls (so it's not muted or anything).
Randomly, the vibrate feature will stop "working" as well, it won't completely stop working, but instead of a long vibrate, I get ONE vibrate (like you get when you push a key on the soft keyboard).
I upgraded to an EnergyROM WinMo6.5 ROM last night, and this afternoon this problem surfaced AGAIN.
Any solutions / thoughts?
Thanks
convert your sounds into another format.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What format?
All three (including the phone ringer, which always works) of the sounds-in-question are MP3s.
Try using WMA
though I must say my TP2 works fine with MP3 media as well.
same thing happens mine too. mostly ok but sometimes no sound from my tp2 or different ring tones. I have original rom
Nope. This is most likely a hardware issue, unless you are running a non-ATT device. The format has nothing to do with it; the device can actually play movie files (audio portion) without a single problem, even when on the storage card. It sounds like a hardware problem about the vibrate thing. But, that notification thing sounds pretty much software. Try with the stock sounds and see if it makes a difference then put the custom ones on main memory and try again.

[Q] Notification bug or something else?

I've got a problem where none of my ringtones work. When I get a incoming call, I see a little status icon that seems to indicate no sound, then I get a small beep followed by the answer the call screen.
I do get notifications for SMS messages so I'm unclear as to whether or not this is the standard notification bug or something different. Additionally, the problem continues after a reboot.
Silent mode is off, the phone is set to ring and vibrate (neither happen), and I have a standard ring tone (I've tried almost all of them).
My modem is FD19 and I'm using Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.4 rom. I've had ringtones on this rom with different modems - but every time something would happen and it would stop working?
Interesting... if I reboot and bluetooth is off (not sure bluetooth is related), the first call will ring. The second won't. I didn't do anthing but answer the phone then hangup my receiver and wait for the phone to return to the home screen on its own.
This acts like the notification bug but with somewhat slightly different behaviors and fixes.
I am now on FD24 modem - so much for the notification bug fixe!
