bluetooth problem - URGENT!

Hey u guys! Ive got a major problem on my tytn. I have a Crc's 10.something last ROM (WM 6.1) and a big BT problem. Ive got it "on" in the comm manager, "on" in windows, both beam options on and that option "allow other devices to see me". Well the problem is that the other devices can only see me if I have the PDA on! I mean, if it is in standby mode, other devices can't find me! It becomes a big problem when I turn on my BT headset and it cant find the phone =(. Is there a way to solve this? maybe editing something on the registry?

try installing schaaps config and turning off all the power save settigns

nothing m8. No can do! everybody else can find their Hermes in standby mode?
anyone know a registry tweak for this?

Solved by removing those saving power options in advanced config

actually it didn't work. the bt doesn't go off when I put the device in standby, it takes about 3 or 4 secunds to turn it off... anyway I don't know what to do...help

Have you tried reflashing? I'm using 10.8 and it has no problems at all when it is in standby and a call comes in, or I start a call from the headset while the phone is still in standby.
If it worked briefly by changing the power settings, try doing that, then delete and recreate the partnership before doing anything else, that might work more reliably.

Yes, i already flashed 3 times! But all the ROMS come with power tweaks! My radio rom is 1.48.00.10 e I dont know if it has anything to do with... Its only the BT problem, i can receive calls and messages, everything works! Im using 10.8 either!

another thread!
you are a kind of hopless my friend
whenever you get any problem on your device, and before you try to understand what kind of problem you have, you open your mouth speechlessly, and you go directly "Hermes Mobile 6" instead of "Hermes Accessories" to post a new thread and ask a very sweet sweet question
Advice: UPGRADE -or whatever you may call it- to Nokia, SE, Sagem, Motorola or any non WM based device and forget about all these problems

That's the way it is - if it in standby, BT is off.
No fixes, patches or anything will sort it as that's just the way it is.
Sorry!

Im not sure thats right because I also have an HTC Prophet and Wizard and they can both be discoverable on standby mode! If it wasn't a possibility then why should the blue led blink in standby mode?

Feel free to disbelieve me and waste your time searching for a solution.
You asked, and I answered.
What you do with the answer is up to you.

i now see this is an all hermes issue that hasnt yet been fixed.
Although there are some registry tweaks. Does anyone know of a good one to force the BT to stay on even in suspend mode?

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 !

Turn over to activate speaker phone?

I hear these AT&T commercials talking about this feature, my verizon TP2 does not do that. The speaker phone button on the back does not do anything either. Is it a setting?

In my stock HTC TP2, in Phone settings (Windows Mobile's, not TouchFlo's), last tab (should be "Advanced"). There's an option that said "when the phone is facing down during a call, use loudspeaker". Check if your phone has this setting?
I don't get all these modifications by providers... in Hongkong phones are sold as is, even when bundled to a certain provider's plan. Many of those modifications aren't really improvements either...

My AT&T Tilt 2 stock rom does this by default!
Cool little feature!!!

not to hijack the thread or anything, but im having the same problem except with the t-mobile version. when its flipped, the mute button lights up but the speaker doesnt activate. the windows option is checked. i messed with some registry settings to enable two way recording (didnt work btw). but that cant be the problem as my brother is having the same problem with his unmodified tmo tp2. his option is checked too.
any ideas?

bump bump, anyone know whats wrong?

Do you have ANY sound? I was using Resco Audio Recorder and I couldn't use the speakerphone when it was working either.. I uninstalled it and no problems since.

i turned this off. it came on once when i was on the couch and it was loud near my ear and freaked me the f out.

I posted about this about a week ago, my solution was to get a new one.
My new one has about 75 dead pixels, so it's going back too.
I'm not satisfied with the build quality at this point...

the speaker does work... when you click the speaker button once in a call. it's just that it doesn't automatically do that when turned over in the call. only the mute button lights up green.
EDIT-
nevermind, it works now. i read this on your thread.
MCbrian said:
I'd say that unless you've been setting it down on an uneven surface -- or not actually setting down at all as the other guy suggests-- there must be something wrong with your phone.
There's no setting/configuration that would cause the inconsistent erratic behavior you describe -- going on then off, vibrating, etc -- if it's setting on a flat table-top or similar.

apparently i wasn't lying it evenly face down. i was trying it on the couch so that doesn't help. i layed it evenly this time and it vibrated and the speaker went on. then i did a couple of other tests at angles and sure enough you have to have it evenly face down. at one angle, i had it vibrating like a maniac because it thought it was even and then uneven.
problem solved!

You have to make sure it is even on the surface. Also doing a g-sensor calibration may help as well.

**Possibly Solved** No SMS, MMS Notification During Standby/Sleep

I think I may have stumbled onto a solution to our dreaded quiet phone that doesnt notify us of a SMS or MMS and possibly email when the phone goes to sleep or standby. I have searched asked inquired, and beat every search engine and found absolutely nothing. So being frustrated of seeing msgs pop up when I hit the power button to wake the phone up I went hunting and I think I found it. I tested this all of today and so far I havent missed one yet, and normally I miss at least 3 a day. Its still in a testing phase so I DONT guarantee this works, but with some feedback with others, it might be the solution. I did alot of comparing with my other phones and my 8125 and 8525 had a different value so i changed it to that value.
I have made it a cab file so that anyone who wants to try it can uninstall it if it doesnt work, I suggest a soft reset after making this change. This changes the following location:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:00000001
to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL]
"DisableSMSWakeUpEvent"=dword:00000000
Good Luck! And if it works or doesnt, please leave feedback of either thanx or didnt work, like I said so far its working on my att tilt 2 stock eu rom 1.86

Nice one, but its already been solved here.

Well at least its here, I know there is a ton of posts going around in here about this problem, and I did munerous searches, but obviously if you dont get the right keyword you'll never find the post.

so what does this do? light the screen up everytime there is a message? or basically just solve the problem of message not ringing in sleep mode?

Basically it does the same thing it did with the 8125 and the 8525 when a msg comes in the screen wakes up from sleep, so far (I thought) I might have found a solution, but it seems I was beaten to it.
So far there isnt a solution found yet of the alert coming thru without lighting the screen up as far as I know.

yea, i thought it lights up the screen when msg comes. I have a habit of putting the phone to sleep without locking it, so it might cause problem when i put it in my pocket as i receive message more than calls.
Thanks anyway mate

Yeah but if you have the end key setup as a long hold it will lock the screen to prevent that accidential tapping of the screen. Unless you have a modded rom then you would have to see what key it is. But hey for me its better then missing a msg.

Hi AngelDeath,
Just wanted to say thx for this one -I realise this thread is old, but it's sorted my no sms alert issue on my HD2. It had been driving me nuts for ages!

Proximity sensor failure

My DHD has problems with the proximity sensor. I returned the device to the vodafone store (Netherlands), and they changed the device for a new one that worked.
Today, 1 day later, my second DHD is now having the exact same problem with the proximity sensor.
When I make a call, the screen immediately goes black, and the device no longer responds to any button (not even the power button on top). The ony way to get the device back to life is by removing and reinserting the battery.
Video of the problem
When I receive a call, the screen stays unlocked, even when the device is placed against my ear, so I end up with my ear pressing the active screen....
I've read more complaints about this exact problem on the tweakers.net forum. It is still unknown whether this is a hardware of software failure.
UPDATE
The problem seems to be related to the lightsensor, when holding a locked DHD in front of a bright light source, the device wil unlock (as long as you keep it in front of the light).
It might be, that when used in bright daylight a DHD will function properly.
Also, when calling using the headset, the problem does not occur. When inserting a headset in a "locked" DHD, it will wake up.
UPDATE2
Some facts, to "bust" some myths about the problem:
- It seems the problem can happen on all DHD's, not just devices with a particular S/N, software version, carrier (telco) or color.
- It has something to do with the light sensor (which is the same sensor as the proximity sensor) since the device unlocks when held in front of a bright lightsource, some users claim their device works well, as long as they are in daylight.
- The DHD uses a CM3602 proximity/light sensor, the same as a regular Desire
- The problem might not occur immediately after purchase, sometimes it takes a few days before it starts, thus switching your DHD for a new one might only solve your problem for a few hours/days (this is what happend to my second and third... yes third device)

Seems like the same kind of problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811282

Exactly the same post. Nice detail that I'm also a Dutch user bought it at a Vodafone store.

So, that's at least 3 devices reported with this problem.
Is there a way to turn off the proximity sensor? This would mean I have to turn the screen off manually when I make or receive a call, but that way, I don't have to reset the device every time I make a cell

Maybe you guys have found why it failed the google test ?

1-2-3 from the first stock - that is an failure that will come back to all of us...
did you try contact HTC ??

I wouldnt be very worried tbh, this is surely software related else they wouldnt release any batch of cellphones and delay the release for more than just a few weeks.

Can you make a Video and load it up on Youtube?
If we have a video it´s much easier to show HTC the problem... maybe we can load this video up on facebook to the HTC page...

Really bad if this failure concerns all DHDs. But why 3 devices?
I only count LeonM1234 and WizardX?
Edit: Ah I see 2x LeonM1234 and 1x WizardX. Forget this post

A lot of HTC phones have a similer problem. Its S/W related (the desire had it when it was first out e.g. it the screen used to go black and not re-light untill you placed it on a table or the other person hung up)
I would be suprised if 3 phones have the same fault unless it SW related :-D

HTC's new Windows phone seems to have a similar error with the proximity sensor:
As I'm a new user I'm not allowed to post a working link. I try to write it so the system accept it.

If this turns out to be true it's more hardware related than software, isn't it?

i think to cancel my DHD order until that issue will check.

You can add one more to the list. Friend of mine had the same problem with his proximity meter. I will receive my D-HD either tomorrow or the day after, I'll let you know if it works properly.
