[Q] URGENT - factory ROM install help needed!! - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem with my HTC Desire. The sound from the external speaker has gone off - no ringtone, music, sms notification or game sound - nothing of anything. I still get sound through the headset, but it is choppy (and skips tracks in the music player). Also if the phone has been on standby for a while I (very) occasionally get a small snippet of sound (no more than 3 or 4 seconds) from the external speaker. This would imply that it's some sort of software fault rather than hardware. I rooted and flashed the with OpenDesire 1.0c (Froyo) a couple of months back and had been using it without a problem since - until this sound problem cropped up.
I've already cleared out the phone and re-installed OpenDesire 1.0c in an attempt to fix but that didn't work.
I've trawled round XDA Developers for a solution but couldn't find a fix. Therefore, I called HTC (UK) and they are arranging to pick up the phone by courier to inspect and where necessary, fix/replace.
However, before I return the phone I need to go back to the original stock ROM (Vodafone UK). But before I do this, I thought I'd post one final call to see if anyone else has had the same problem and knows of a fix.
Thanks in advance for any help.

You should try the latest version of OpenDesire. 1.0c is very old...

I've had the same problem, there was no way to fix. I needed a replacement handset.

HTC Hero mic too silent

hi there!
im using a hero with mc 2.3 and FU_6.35.07.08 radiofirmware.
everytime I'm talking to someone, he keeps telling me to speak louder.
no matter how good the signal strenth is or to whom i speak!
I've already tried several radios, just in hope to be able to handle it.
the only solution is to hold the microphone straight to my mouth (its on the downside)
but thats still not the all in all solution..
is there anything like a microphone boost?
or at least can anybody tell me its just a bug or something?
i just hope its not due to the construction.
did u used the Volume Boost app from the market ?(forgot the name....removed asap...)
I used this is had that problem...
and backup didn't help..
ended up had to wipe and re-flash...
dammit... yes.. i did..
thank you for your help!
ill try it out.
Happened to me to.
What did you have to reflash to fix this ?
I will try to get a modified csv file for all hero roms to increase volume on headset, speaker, and for incall volume!

Thanks Drizzy!
This will be much appreciated!!
When I hold my Hero in my left hand up to the ear my little finger (pinky) always cover the little microphone hole so the sound can't reach the microphone. Those who I speak with tells me to speak louder because of this.
Otherwise I get good reports of the clarity of how I sound
Actually, after the latest official ROM upgrade, people have been telling me to speak up, that they can't hear me properly or that it sounds like I have a sweater over the mic or that I'm in a tin can.
I was about to send it in, perhaps I've dropped it or something. But it apparently not just me who has this problem,
Yeh Im also having the same problem. I have the MC 2.3 ROM but did use the volume hack program also. Do you think this has something to do with it?? Does anyone know of any way to increase the volume of the phone without screwing up the microphone?
hi guys, im having this problem too but only since like yesterday i think! im sure its something to do with the modaco rom as if i go back to default everything seems fine.
Any ideas?
Confused
Hi,
Sorry about the maybe obvious quiestions but I am quite new to this!
I bought an apparently new unlocked HTC Hero from eBay recently (which I now realise might have been a big mistake!)
On "About Phone" section of the phone it says I have firmware version 1.5 and "Build Number": "MoDaCo Custom Rom 2.3 Core".
I am now realising that this phone is probably not as new as advertised and has not come with the original software.
Anyway everything else seems to work perfectly with this phone apart from the same microphone problems as other people have described, so I was hoping that someone could explain to me what has been done to the phone and any suggestions on how to fix it or return it to its default state!
Im sorry, for the simple questions but as I say I am new to Android and would like a phone that I can make phonecalls with!
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Solution
I think it can be solved by replacing the following files with the original ones:
/etc/AudioFilter.csv
/etc/AudioPara4.csv
/etc/AudioPreProcess.csv
Of course you have to be root to be able to replace these files...
Note: I have not tried the above yet, but these files contain low level audio settings, so there is a good chance changing it can help you.
Thanks for the response.
However being completely new to this I am still a bit unclear.
How do I access these files on my phone and where do I find the original ones?
I am pretty sure it has been rooted - although not sure how I check - it definately has a custom rom installed on it though
You can download for example the MoDaCo ROM: http://content.modaco.net/hero/2.3-update-hero-modacocustomrom-core-signed.zip
In this .zip file you will find the mentioned files in the /system/etc/ sub-directory.
Simply copy them to your MicroSDHC card, than in the phone use a file browser (like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530271 ) to copy them from the card to the phone's file system (into /etc/ ). After this you only need to reboot.
aaaah, i have this exact same problem!! I really hope it is the ROM & not the handset.

[Q] [AUDIO BUG] Help me xda developers... You're my only hope.

Get it? The title is a Star Wars reference. As in developers are Jedi? Like in the movie? Nevermind.
I have been having a strange audio bug recently. I flashed RC Mix Runny v1.0 through to v1.4 and each subsequent ROM version did exactly what it should. No issues that weren't listed on the thread.
Then I flashed Runny v1.5, followed by (after the ROM had booted twice) a theme I made on UOT Kitchen. A few days afterwards, when making a phone call, I couldn't hear the phone ringing through the phone's speaker. Nothing. That's the bug.
This only applies to phone calls (or at least the speaker normally used for phone calls). When I select 'speaker phone' the rear speaker kicks in and I can hear the phone call just fine, though a little loud when walking around in public.
The headset also works perfectly.
I flashed RCMix3d 3.5 v1.0 today - no themes this time in case it was the cause last time. The ROM boots up just fine, everything seems perfect but when I go to make a phone call the same bug presents itself. Meaning it's most likely a bug I have caused, not a bug in a ROM.
But what did I do?! Has anyone heard of this behavior before? Could it be radio/RIL related?
If anyone can shed a little light, I would appreciate it greatly.

Please search before opening a new post as I have seen this pop up alot the past few days with that rom. I would look in the roms thread
I will search more thoroughly. Apologies for any infraction.
Cheers for pointing the way.

While you are searching for hours for a solution, download a different ROM (other than RCMix) and find out if it is really a bug or some hardware issue. And while you wait for the download and flash, keep searching

Thanks for your advice. I heeded it!
I flashed Black Ice [AOSP] to see if it was still persisting. It is.
Seems like it's a hardware problem. I was hoping it wasn't. I didn't want to have to pay to fix it!
Ta for the help!
try changing the radio or kernel see if it helps

I was holding back on changing the radio because I don't like higher risk of bricking. Having done it in the past though, I said it was worth a shot before I blame the hardware entirely and hand over money to fix it.
I had been using radio 26.09.04.11 and it's matching RIL with every ROM I tried.
Once changed to radio 26.13.04.19_M and it's corresponding RIL and the problem was erased. I can hear phone calls on the phone speaker again. (Like normal folk!)
Thanks for the push rakinisbat, I needed it!
Edit: NOT SOLVED. The problem has re-surfaced. I have made absolutely no changes to the system since it started working. I am now going to pay someone to take a look and will report back with results.
Definitely not solved.
This problem with the receiver not working has not gone away.
I have tried ignoring it for the last while and just using the speakerphone on a low volume - not ideal but workable.
A few days ago I changed ROM - curious to try out ICS. I load up the new ROM and a while later, accidentally forgot to put a call I was making onto speakerphone and suddenly the receiver is working again - JOY!
Now, two days later, the receiver is not working again.
I have pry tools now and would happily change the receiver, but this recurring trend of it working for a spell after a new ROM is flashed leads me to believe this is more software related than hardware.
If anyone has ANY ideas or thinks they could help (if I provide a logcat to them or something) then please PM me or respond to this thread.
Everything works fine for me...never experienced this .....check your audio settings....and why you running such an old version??

The last time I changed to that radio, my audio bug was fixed (temporarily).
I will update to the new radio (12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28) I saw mentioned a few days ago and see if it changes anything - though I doubt it.
I have done a fair bit of research on this and it is not as uncommon as I thought it was a few months ago. It seems to have happened to the HTC Desire, Desire S and Desire HD - but not en mass. In every case, the phone was working fine, then came intermittent receiver audio, then receiver audio gone altogether.
I have not heard of one working solution, though I have had some helpful people lend an ear!

You say the problem is solved for a while when you flash a new ROM. Is there a possibility that a certain app that you install/restore that maybe messes with the speaker?
Just a thought..

An avenue I had not gone down. I have been restoring mostly the same apps for ages.
Thanks for the idea. I will do a backup and then a fresh install tomorrow (I'm at work) and check. Will report back afterwards.
Ongoing audio issue
I have fully wiped the phone and re-installed a ROM twice now (ICS both times, I know this problem acts the same with GB). I didn't install any apps for a while and had audio in the receiver for phone calls.
The first time I wiped it, I had audio back so decided to install apps from the market - one at a time and test the receiver by ringing the house number after each is installed. I got distracted (it was late) and when I next picked up the phone, audio was gone.
Second attempt, this time stay vigilant. I fully wiped the phone, installed a ROM, and got to work on installing the apps again. I installed a few apps, which I will list here, and audio disappears again.
Installed apps:-
Dictionary.com
Dropbox
Earth
Es File Explorer
Facebook
Goggles (I dunno why, the camera isn't even working - habit maybe)
Google Sky Map
Google+
Messenger
Moon+ Reader Pro
MX Video Player
Streetview For Google Maps
Sugarsync
Tumblr
Twitter
XDA
To my knowledge, apart from MX Video Player, none of the rest these apps should have any effect on the audio.
Today I am going to wipe it and not install any apps for the next 24-48 hours and see if the audio still disappears.
Tune in next time to see if the problem makes my brain crack in two.

I had exactly the same issue. After rooting my desire HD I installed ARHD 6.3.1 and it was working very fine until I installed the ICE HD theme for ARHD 6.3.1. Sorry, no disrespect to the theme author but I was not able to hear anything through Phone speakers after installing this theme. This is what I did to solve this issue,
1- Use Superwipe to clear everything using ClockworkMod recovery.
2- Install the STOCK 1.32 PD98IMG.zip from here. Put it in your SD card, Flash is using the HTC Stock Recovery (It will detect it automatically). Remember that the Kernel and Radio are inside this ZIP file so you need not to install anything else.
That's it. you are back to old stock ROM and now you must be able to hear you phone speakers. If not, switch off your phone for few hours and then turn on. (I know switching off and on sounds silly but it worked for me). You can install any custom ROM after that rooting again.

Thanks so much for getting on to me, I have been hoping that someone out there solved this issue and might read this little thread!
I will be following your advice today and will report back.
Solution seems good so far!
I'm not going to jump the gun again and say that it is definitely solved but my audio came back!
I did what you said, reverted everything back to stock. When it loaded up Froyo and for the first while, the receiver wasn't working. I set about rooting, Radio S-Off, ENG S-Off, adding CWM etc.
About three hours later (I didn't actually leave the phone off, I reset it a lot though) the audio returned to the receiver!
I'm delighted but remain skeptical as it has come back to life and then died again so many times before.
I want to believe!!!... So I remain hopeful. Time will tell.
It fixed itself...(!)
See post below
Absolutely positively finally fixed.
Thanks to everyone for their help in trying to solve this issue.
I replaced the broken receiver with a new one I got from eBay (along with prytools for under €10) and this issue is completely fixed.
What had happened, if anyone is interested, was that the inside of receiver housing and the output on the receiver itself had been clogged with dust, tiny hairs and the like. That must have shorted the tiny thing.
Lesson learned. Get stuck in.

[Q] HTC One X - Mic Problem whilst in Speaker mode in a call

Hi,
I just received my HTC One X today as an upgrade from T-Mobile. I've been waiting to get my hands on this for ages like most of you so you would most likely know how I feel when its not how you expected i.e things going wrong/not working etc.
THE PROBLEM:
The problem seems to be that when I am on a call using the speaker mode, the mic does not seem to work, therefore the person on the other side cannot hear me. I tested it again myself and it seems as if the mic mutes itself when you press the speaker mode in a call. You are still able to hear the other person yet they cannot hear you.
However when I am not in speaker mode, everything works as normal so I am wondering is this a software fault or hardware fault.
Please get back to me as soon as, as I really do not want to return the phone and go through the dreaded process.
Thank you for reading.
P.S
My HTC One X:
Software Version: 1.26.110.5
HTC SDK: 4.11
(As i am on Tmobile, My HOX is branded therefore has not received latest update)
I have the exact same problem, I bought the phone about a month ago, and I didn't check the speaker mode function, then I flash few different custom rom, Now I found the speaker mode problem as tkr1992 has, since I unlock the bootloader (although I relock the bootloader) but HTC won't repair the phone free of charge for me, they say the phone need a new mainbroad... will cost me 2XX USD,
I don't even know is the phone has this problem when I first bought it or after I flash some custom rom.
HtC told me it should be software problem cos it is the same mic that use in speaker mode or non speaker mode, so when other side can hear you when you not on speaker mode, mean the mic is alright, BUT they told me it need to replace the mainboard cos I have unlock the bootloader so they can't not recover the phone to stock rom, BUT again I already relock the bootloader and RUU the stock rom back to the phone, still the same problem.
I need help too, Any good fellow can help??????????
I hope it is just a software fault. I did just receive an update today from T-Mobile, as my HOX is branded. The update is 1.28.110.7. It still seems that my mic problem is present.
Does anyone also know what fixes are included in this update?
Thanks
Any ideas anyone? Would really like to fix this instead of sending phone back to tmobile.
Thanks

this is what got from HTC
Regarding to your inquiry about HTC One X, we would like to provide you with following advice and solution as below: First you can diagnosis the hardware issue on the speaker. Please kindly type *#*#3424#*#* on the dial screen, you will enable the function test program. And then select "Audio Test", tap Run. Please finish the test as instructions.
But it didn't work for me the phone just didn't do anything, you can try.
Thanks for that, i just tried the audio test diagnosis. The test shows that everything is working correctly however the same problem still occurs within a call like before.

Try reset to factory setting, see if it does any different.
That is the HTC guy try to do to my one x.
btw have you rooted your phone or unlocked the downloader?
You have working Navigation application in background and this make call routing first to speaker part permanently, not to earphone - like phone is in Handsfree mode. Try to disable it / shut down it / and all be fine.

I'm experiencing this exact issue as well - has anyone come up with any possible solutions?
There are 2 microphones on this phone, the upper one next to the headset jack and the other next to the lower right corner of the screen.
While on phone mode the lower one is the main microphone because its closer to your mouth, on speaker mode the upper one becomes the main mic.
It's probably a hardware fault since you flashed stock rom and it's still not working.
I seem to have this issue too - did anyone get a solution
Audio tests fine, but in Google Talk, or Google Hangout, or Phone Dialer in speaker mode - the mic input is not working, so recipient cannot hear.
Google Maps Issue
So my wife has the same phone (HTC One X) and has the most recent update to 4.0.4 (stock everything) and found out that it is indeed either the google 'navigation' app, or the google 'maps' app running in the background that will give this problem. Simply go to settings, then apps, then stop the maps or navigation process, make sure you go to the cached processes as well and stop those. Right after that her phone started working again. I also tested with the HTC test tool code that was given earlier and just like everyone else the test passed fine. So this should be the fix.
i have the same issue..
.. since updating my HOX to 3.18.401.1 and can confirm that disabling the google maps service solves the issue (at least for now)...
Anyway i have to admit that thos workaround doesn´t make me happy at all, a phone without google maps is a pain in the ......
Update: Nope .... it worked for the first 2 calls, now silence again.....Did already 3 factory resets....no idea anymore, i think i gonna sned it in to HTC...
Hello,
I have the same problem and many users "HOX" have the same worries. It seems that when you change the screen touch there is a lot of trouble of this kind.
Does anyone find a solution?

Any update on this? Did you send it to HTC? Mine has also stopped suddenly a few days back while on viper 3.7.2. Tried factory reset, flashed the rom again, flashed other roms, but the problem is still there...
in may case it was a defective mainboard....
I had to send in my HOX 3 times to HTC repair until they (and me) figured out it was a Mainboard problem.
The first 2 repair attempts where quite strange, because they changed some parts which have absolutely nothing to do with the MIC and when i received it the problem was still here, but anyway
I came to the final diagnosis, because after turning the HOX on, it was working for some calls, then the MIC suddenly stopped...Getting more and more angry because of sending the phone in and receiving it 3 weeks later unrepaired, i once squeezed my HOX really hard during a "silent" phonecall and while squeezing it (on both lower edges) the MIC worked again.
After that experience all was clear, because this behaviour is typical for a hairline crack on the PCB. I wrote this on the RMA form and they exchanged the Mainboard....
So, finally i have my HOX again for 4 weeks now (after almost 2 1/2 months without it) and it works flawlessly....
So, good luck guys and a lot of patience

Headphones cause Desire Z to Freeze

Hi guys, I have a strange problem and I couldn't find any Qs and As to it in the forum so I thought I'd post it up and see if someone can help me figure this problem out.
I was running EliteMod and out of nowhere this problem arose.
Whenever I put in my headset the phone would become unresponsive/frozen, and on the odd occasion it would work, but after a few minutes would randomly restart.
I thought it may have been the rom so I flashed another.
I'm now running Cyanogenmod 9 ICS beta 10 and the problem is still apparent.
I'm at a loss of what it could be.
Any help would be great.
Cheers
Edit:
I should add that when I reflashed Cyanogenmod 9, I put the headphones right at the start when setting up a fresh google account on startup, still the same result. Which is why it has me so confused. It came up at random, and a fresh flash won't get rid of it.

I had this same problem for two different reasons with two different phones.
The first time, which seems unlikely for you, was a problem with DSP Manager that comes with CM9 causing my phone to crash and restart.
The second is manufacturer error. The phone has a titanium case, and due to some errors in assembly, when I would plug in headphones, the system would freeze and restart. Because I still had warranty, I had it replaced and the problem disappeared.
If you have a multimeter there are ways to check for a short, but I'm not sure if you are familiar with this.
Hope this helps!
Ahh I see.
I guess that would make the most sense... a hardware fault.
I'm out of warranty so I guess no more music via this phone.
Thanks for the advice

If you still want to try and find a solution, get some electrical tape (or another strong insulating tape) and cut off a thin strip lengthwise (about 0.8-1cm width x 3-4 cm length) and tape it to the top of the headphone plug on your headphones so that it blocks any contact with the titanium.

I use a pair of Bluetooth headphones and a Bluetooth-enabled car radio. But alas, if you care a lot about your sound quality, then Bluetooth certainly is *not* the way to go.
But if you care that much about audio quality, you would have a dedicated device which uses all it's processing power for playback, right?

HTC Evo 4G Root Problems PLZ HELP!!!!!

So i am new to this forum and ive rooted my evo since November of 2011 and like 4 Months After rooting it ive noticed some really bad issues that i can't seem to be able to fix by myself so here are my issue 1. Car home App by google starts up when ever i reboot or turn off and then on my phone or will come on by itself for no reason and it happens on any rom whether it's HTC Sense or Cyanogen Mod or any Rom. My second problem is that when i am on HTC Sense Rom Or Any other HTC Sense Based rom like warm two point two For Example My Media Volume Wont work like there is sound but i cant control the volume level of it whether i want it all the way down or all the way up there's no difference in sound it just stays the same PLEASE HELP Me FIX THIS ISSUE I REALLY AM STARTING TO HATE IT ILL EVEN UN-ROOT IT IF I HAVE TO WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO FIX IT BUT PLEASE HELP I AM A NOOB AND I AM PRETTY MUCH NEW AT THIS STUFF!!!!!!!:crying::crying::crying::crying:
OOHHH P.S.
The Media Volume Thing Only Happens When I Use The Headphone Jack (Again It Only Happens When Im Using a HTC Sense Rom Not When Using Something Like Cyanogen Mod)!!!!!
To answer the first question, I'm pretty sure the car home thing is due to a broken usb port.
As for the second, can't help ya there.
