Hi ll,
I really out of ideas here .
I was running Pays 1.9 Bravesoul ROM without any issues for about 4 months on my unbranded Desire(HBOOT 0.75)!
Today I decided to update to Froyo.
I used Rom Manager to upgrade to OpenDesire 3.03 and Radio 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.
Every thing went well, except that I noticed that the MIC doesn't work at all.
Not when I make or receive a call, Not if I try to Mute/Unmute it, Not if i try to Record sound, or Video or WHATEVER!!! The only way the other side can hear me is trough my BT headset.
So I tried to use the LeeDroid 1.7a ROM but same result. Also tried to use different Radio - 32.42.00.32U_5.09.00.08.
I then Nandroid restore to my 1.9 Pays rom (Wiping Data+Cach+ext), but still doesn't work. I tried different Radios:
32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2
32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
32.26.00.24U_4.04.00.03_2
same thing...
I finally Unrooed my Desire to v1.15.4 Radio 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11 without any luck!
So I'm pretty hopeless Please if someone also have / had this issue, Please share!
Thanks!
sounds to me like it's broken mate
i know it's coincidence that it broke as you changed ROM but if it doesn't work on anything there's no explanation
have you tried a hard reset + clearing caches?
if you have then unroot your phone, put it back to your original RUU for warranty purposes and sent it back for repair
by what do you mean Hard Reset?
I wiped all data, I've changed roms.
Currently It's unrooted...
Is it possible for the Radio update to do this? (all the updates went without a hitch)
Or maybe the OpenDesire ROM (I see that v3.03 is removed, do you know why?) did this?
There is no way it a coincidence. I making phone calls all the time, The update took me about 15 min, after which I tried the Video camera and noticed there was no sound...
Thanks!
well, I noticed that the mic works, but extremely week! I really need to shout in order to hear a whisper... I do this in recording...
I'm starting to believe that maybe it's the mimbrein (Or the piezzo) that is ruined inside the mic...
Is it possible to control the gain in software? (Is there still a chance that the S.W upgrade caused this?)
Hello. I have a problem with sound in my kaiser with Android. I tried 2 systems [Cynanogen mod 6 (Froyo) and Myn's Warm Donut], 4 radios (from 1.71 to 1.65) and 2 kernels. Sound never appeared. Why?
what zimage or nbh you using if you are using a older one it might have problems
Did you mean kernel? the newest from this page:
http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D
it may be that you have muted the media volume in settings.
No. I don't have any sound. Not only media. When someone calls to me, I cannot hear him too and this person cant hear me too.
Audio issue
I have the same problem. I tried different builds and nothing helps. Any suggestions??
Just a thought, but have you tried flashing a stock rom, then flashing to nand again? Flashing a stock rom clears the entire nand, leaving no possibility of stray bits of data left from custom roms.
I have to say, I get the same thing, but with a slight variation. Sound works for me up until i make at least one call (but could happen before that). Once I make that call, either during the call, or after, the sound is gone. I too had myn's donut, and then frayo, and both times, the exact same problem. I will try to flash the stock rom, and then back to android, but it is a problem that I also share.
This is my first post on xda, so please be nice!

Yeah, flashed it back to a the most recent stock rom, and then back to andriod.. how works perfectly. Sorry i didnt tell you guys earlier.
I think it was to do with the radio thingy-ma-jig. I flashed it with winmo 6.1 from htc website, and then back again.
Now i'm runnying frayo.
I flashed the newest stock rom from htc site too, then 1.65 radio, but it didn't help :/

That is most likely because you didnt flash it right. take the .nhb from it, plug it into your sd card and flash it from sd. try that.
I'm not stupid. I always flash anything like that-not via CustomRUU-because I have damaged my USB socket and now my Kaiser cannot be recognized by computer.
PS: Today when I booted my Kaiser, next to ANDROID word, I saw "handset status changed to 1". When I rebooted, it didn't show. What's this?

Well, with regards to how I got it fixed (the detailed explanation), i flashed it with a custom winmob rom initially, but surprisingly, the same problem i had with android was happening with the winmob. I could make a call after reboot, but after that call, the sound completely died, and the camera did not work. So i tried to flash with the latest stock rom. I've uploaded the actual roms i used on my public drop box folder here => "i tried posting the link, but because i'm new, it wouldnt allow me...pm me"
I am not a professional on flashing, rather i am a beginner. My tytn 2 is a european T-mobile version. I tried to flash it, it did it half way...then stopped! I tried to do it again, but then it just said "...loading..." and would not go past it. But when i booted to my custom rom, it was still there, but the problems had gone. I guessed that it flashed the radio, and nothing else.
When i then went to android, it worked perfectly.
That was my journey.
I hope that helped... maybe.
Unfortunately, it didn't help.
Any other ideas?
I solved mine by changing radio ROM,but i lost sound and camera in windows,any ROM that fit both android and windows???
What version did you flash?
1.65.14.06
Me too!
I flahsed froyo last night and didn't test after makng calls. I'm having the same issue (lose sound after a phone call). I followed the sticky guide and sim unlocked the radio before flashing (which I think I had already done before). I will try changing radios when I get home to see if this resolves the issue and post my results.
Update: I flashed 1.71.09.01 on my ATT Tilt and this fixed the issue. Now sound and camera work great. Phone runs faster also!
After installing Radio 2.05.00.06.11 (dinc_ota.zip), my handset speaker audio disappears. Speakerphone and bluetooth work fine, but no luck with the internal speaker.
Heres the kicker:
Once I restore the 1.0 Radio, the internal speaker starts working again.
After lots of searching, this seems to be a very intermittent problem. I've only found two other people experiencing the same issue. Unfortunately I have not found a solution.
Does anybody have any idea as to what my next step should be to try and solve this?
Thanks!
I have the same problem...

Try downloading a fresh copy of the update and running it again?
It's working just fine for too many people for it to be a problem with the update itself.

not exactly. but, this radio isnt a image, its a patch. and a double patch is not the same thing... there is no error checking. dont do it!
I've tried re-installing the update 3 times from three sources. At first I thought it was the Froyo update so I went back to my nand backup and that didn't help, but once I downgraded the baseband it magically started working again.
So I tried it again. Re-downloading all the tools and packages. Only for it to happen again right after the Radio update. So I reverted back, cleared everything to factory, did a fresh install, then did the upgrade once more.... Still same problem.
Since it is such an intermittent issue, I'm thinking that maybe the hardware is to blame. The particular handset that I have is a warranty replacement from Verizon (blown speakers on first one). Maybe that has something to do with it.
Anyone have any other theories?
Thanks!
So I'm stumped. It's a pretty straightforward process, and I can't see where I'm going wrong.
Next Step: Warranty Replacement. We'll see if that helps. I'll be sure to record the serial number and other details of the phone before I send it back. Maybe we can find a pattern.
It will be a couple days before the new phone arrives. If you have something I can try, please suggest away!
Thanks!
I am having the exact same problem. I have tried both 2.x radios and both have the same effect. I want to use froyo but the only way to is to use speakerphone or a plugged in headset. I tried to take it in yesterday but the tech at verizonwireless told me to wait it out until 2.2 comes out to see if that fixes my problems. ( went in stock told them I was having the problem on stock radio) final problem being is when official does come out and it kills my headset speaker is it going to be too late to root my phone knowing the replacement I get will already be loaded with the new software.
Chicken and Egg
Unfortunately, unrEVOked has not developed a S-ON patch. This means that you will either have to take stock 2.2 which will be unrootable -or- you will patch forever, have S-OFF, get stock 2.2 and not be able to return the phone if the problem doesn't clear up.
Please keep that in mind when making your decision.
The replacement phone worked...
Not sure what the problem was, but it confirms my method for installing 2.2 wasn't flawed..
Thanks for all your help!
-j
I am trying to get verizon to send me a new one. They are not being very helpful right now. They said the audio issue is a software issue that should be fixed with the new update but might send me a new phone due to number of dropped calls. I have to stop in store tomorrow
I have a ATT TP2/Stock Radio and have been flashing ROMs for a long time... I recently flashed to the latest ENERGY rom and after a day or so the weather for "My location" quit updating?
I figured it was a bug so I flashed to another one of his ROMs. (I always have used his ROMs from my 1st flash) The phone will not find a GPS signal to update my location. I went back to a tried and true oldler version of Energy, which worked in the past and still no "My location" weather?
Google maps cannot locate any satilites either?
I flashed back to 1st ATT stock ROM loaded google map, searched my location and it worked... So they phone is still working properly.
Flashed back to ENERGY ROM and back again to no "My location" weather or google map GPS?
I have tried everything I can think of please help...
Perhaps you have already done it, but have you performed a task 29? If not try that, then flash your rom.
Both the My Location and GPS issues are discussed (with possible solutions) in the Energy ROM FAQs, Post 6 (of the Energy ROM thread) Section 3 "Solutions to Issues":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4579513&postcount=6
"My Location" is derived from cell tower information, not GPS. Issues with My Location may be a function of the cell tower at your local area, either low signal strength, or just not passing the proper info to your phone. If you travel to a location a few miles away (or farther) do you still get no location?
I have the ATT Tilt2, same as you, and have flashed Energy ROM many times (including most recently Oct. 8), and have never had an issue with either My Location or GPS. There are some ATT-specific solutions you can try, listed in the FAQ. Also, updating to the newer radio (one shown in my signature) may help.
Will do...
I do perform Task 29- Thanks for the reply
I will read more about the it from the Energy thread. Thanks for the reply...
That is the ROM I started having issues with.
OCT.8 Cookie Rom- Flashed and just like normal everything was fine. Drove out on a job for work and everything was good, later got back to my shop in and looked at the phone and it was stuck on the other city,kinda like it hadnt updated since. Tried to update and it just would time out? So I Hard reset the phone and it never loaded the My Location... Full signal indoors and out.
One of the guys I work with has a TP2 as well and he asked me if google was working. I tried to locate me on the map and it says "Your location is temporary not avial." When I try to update the weather from the tab it says "No updates are avail."
I dont know? Im downloading the new ATT ROM now and will, see what it does.
I was told that it will update my radio.
Ive never flashed my radio, and dont know much about it or what exactly it does to upgrade it. I am going to try to read more tonight when I get off work.
Thanks, If your have any inputs/questions I will get back ASAP...
Dont know?
Well the new ATT ROM is on the phone working fine...? As soon as it booted the weather on the Sense popped up with my city... I cant figure out why other roms arent working.
Im going to flash again to Energy soon... Maybe tonight or tomarrow; Battery is dead and have to let it charge. Besides Ive flashed some many times im tired of messing with it.
If anyone has any ideas on what my issue may be please help.
Thanks-

The stock ROM works fine because it does all the work for you. It preforms a task29 as part of the process. If you don't know what that is, it's a tool that erases and formats the internal memory of the device. It also flashes the radio and the ROM in the same program. Basically, all of the things you needed to do on a custom ROM, it does for you on the stock ROM.
BEFORE putting another ROM on your device, preform a task29 (search for it in the Rhodium ROM dev section), then flash the ROM. After that, read the FAQ in post #6 of the Energy thread. If that doesn't answer your question, then ask about it in that thread.
BEFORE posting a question in the Energy thread, be sure to read the FAQ. There is a correct way to ask for help there.
IDK, This is wierd
I do know about task29 and perform it before every flash.
So Stock ROM V.2 was working on "My Location" and Google Map... So I was looking around for .Cabs to clean the Stock ROM up and noticed that ENERGY had posted some new ROMS and I downloaded one. I Task29'd and flashed to the new Energy ROM, No fix on Google and weather "My Location" still unable to update or even find my location...?
Task29'd and went back to Stock ROM V.2 and now I'm having the same issue with the stocker?
Does anyone know what could possibly causing this issue? I don't ever get into the Registry or anything. I just flash and go adding the basic .Cabs
I'm at a loss... I would really hate to replace the phone due to this. Everything else works fine it just seems to be a GPS issue...
Any help would be greatly apperciated.
Thanks in advance-- I hope

This to me would seem to indicate that it might be an issue with the cell towers and not your phone, if it works in some locations and not others. Its a pretty common issue, that's why its on the FAQs. For months, my phone would not retrieve the location information from the cell tower near my office, despite 4 bars of reception. But it works fine almost anywhere else. Next time you are driving to other locations, experiment and see if it works better in other towns.
The time out message for weather just means it can't get the weather info over the data connection, it doesn't refer to My Location. The HTC weather server has issues from time to time, so this may have nothing to do with your phone.

If you are running Energy ROM, then the solution to your My Location problem is listed in post #6 of that thread. The easiest solution is to simply disable 3G. My Location is determined from the Cell Towers, not the device. If this solution doesn't work for you, then that narrows the problem down to something you've installed on the device. Try the solutions listed first. If that doesn't work, install a program like Sprite Backup to create an image of your device so you don't loose anything. After backing up, flash the stock ROM and see if, without installing or changing anything, you have the same problem. If it's working like this, then install things one-by-one until you find the culprit.

Flashing the radio is super easy. If you've already flashed ROM, flashing the radio is basically the same process, except it only takes a several seconds. It updates the software on your phone that allows it to connect with the cell network. It resides on a separate part of the memory than the OS, so it usually is not affected by ROM flashes (and vice versa, flashing the radio does not affect the ROM). The newer official ATT ROM is an exception, where they packed the radio in with the ROM. So now your radio is updated to the newest ATT radio. Flashing custom Rhodium GSM ROMs from XDA won't affect the radio, unless specifically indicated otherwise (and I haven't seen any custom ROMs that do that).

There are a couple of custom ROMs that flash radio as well. I don't recall which, but be sure and look before flashing!

Thanks, good to know. Of course, we always read the ROM instructions thoroughly before flashing!
Narrowed Down...
Thanks to all that have helped so far...
Ok after reading the last few post I have somewhat narrowed down the issue.
Okay, Yesterday I flashed the New ATT ROM so I have the upgraded radio-
Discouraged after I lost the "My Location" with the stock ROM and its differences between Energy(I guess I got spoiled by it) I flashed back to a later version of Energy.
CajunFlavoredbob- Thanks for recommeneding me to try disabling 3G and see if it works. Well it did, I dropped to the Edge network full signal and it picked up pretty quick both on "My Location" Weather and Google... Switched back to 3G and issue came back.
So I read post#6 from the Energy forum and one user says for him he used
"FF ATT Nokia aGPS Settings" I am using something I think is similar to that it is "FF Google aGPS Settings Generic" but I guess its not work aswell as it should or at all? So I am going to try to find this other .Cab and install it and see if this works.
Somewhat narrowed down, with the issue but feel like I am getting somewhere
Thanks to all for help so far! I will keep you guys updated...
No luck...
Okay well I got 3 .Cabs from I believe Fone Fanatic and another one from this guy I work with and no luck?
Any other ideas on what I can do?
ok, heres the deal. Ive played with just about every rom for this phone. Then one happy merry day, i decide to install miui (i loved it on my dinc 1) then after getting my fill of it i went back to stock (andybones stock rom i think it was). Now the 3g keeps cutting off so i have to use wifi whenever i get the chance or be stuck with 1x, and it wont send or recieve calls unless im outside. I tried flashing the latest radio, trying different roms, RUU then reroot, but its still having this issue. Anyone else having this issue? Anyone find a fix?
BTW its the miui rom from miui.us

Have you tried *228 option 1 then *228 option 2 from an OTA based ROM? If not I would suggest giving that a try.

tried it didnt work tho. I even tried reinstalling the radio but it didnt help much. the way i see my best options are:
1) just call in for a replacement but ive already done that so much im sure verizon hates me xD
2) wait for the ics update to come out which i recently discovered is confermed by htc to come out soon this year
3) turbo charge the 3g i do have to get a better connection out of it and just stay on wifi when im at my house
unfortunatley i would really like to find a fix for this so if anyone wants to help out by finding a way or making one id appreciate it. Ive already googled the crap out of this but youre welcome to look around.
You could have a hardware issue, or you could be having the issue that just about everyone had on the Incredible 1 at some point.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817487&highlight=3g+drops
Try that, but with files for our phone. Do NOT use the RUU for the Dinc1. Or, try flashing a stock based ROM like SkyraiderZeus. If none of this works, its probably a hardware issue.
