Wow I haven't been on here in a long time and I apologize if I come off as an asshole coming here to looking for help and not contributing in the long run as I do not have a windows phone anymore but that will become more clear in a second to as why I am here.
My father has recently been bugging out about wanting a hands free headset because he think's it isn't safe to hold the phone to your ear (hes right). The problem he is coming to is that when the hands free headset is plugged in (3.5mm jack) the phone is silent when it rings; it only rings in the headset.
Specs: Samsung code (metro pcs), and that is all that I know about it right now, I will get more information in about 20-30min.
My question now is there some small .cad file I can just install and the phone will ring through the speaker as it does if nothing was plugged into the 3.5mm head set jack? Where everything else will ring outside of the headset like text message alerts, alarms, ect..
Again I am sorry if anyone gets offended that I am just jumping on here for advice because to be it seems kind of a **** move but my dad really needs my help and I want to help him. Thank again guys.
P.S- Let me know if I posted this in the wrong area.
EDIT
Laughing my ass off at my avatar, wow its been a while.

Can you help me with this problem? Everytime the phone rings, is powered on, or try to listen to MP3 or ringtones, there's a screeching sound that overshadows the sound being emitted, whether song or ringtone, etc.
Yet, I can make and receive phone calls and am able to hear the caller thru the same speaker clearly and with no screeching. What could be causing this problem and how can I fix it?
Thank you.

Wow Shmi, if this problem persists you will need a bulletin board all to yourself :roll:
Ahhh, that very dry British sarcasm. Don't think it's not appreciated.
Not all of us can be techie geniuses such as yourself. I'm not too proud to ask for help when I need it.
Some of us are actually quite new to this game and spend our days saving lives for a living. So, in the wee hours of the night, as in now, we try to work out our tech problems.
I guess you don't believe in the phrase: "there's no such thing as a stupid question"
I have had my SPV M2000 for about 6 months, and it has been unusable for about the last 3 months due to the fact that the speaker will not work properly. The speaker volume has almost disappeared and sounds like the speaker has blown i.e. rather tinny. At first it just sounded like the speaker was a bit tinny then after about a week or so i couldn't hear the phone ringing let alone hear the person calling me!
I was just wondering if i'm the only one with this problem and if there is anyway to fix it?, or do i need a new speaker if so does anybody know where i could get hold of one from?
I have had a good browse through the forums and can't find anybody with the same problem.
Any help would be great as i really miss my device i really do think it was the best phone i'd ever had!
bummer.......sounds like a blown speaker.... i had the same problem with my first sx66.....you will need to replace the speaker.....
i had contacted cingular about it.....they had set me up to send it off for repairs.... but i was able to exchange it.... so that was cool...
you should check to see if you can exchange it..... if you can not you should contact the manufactuer....they should be able to tell you where to send it for repairs....
hope that helps......
Hello,
I've had the Nokia CK-1W Bluetooth hands free kit in my car for a while. I started out with a Nokia 6310i so it seemed the perfect choice when I got it.
Last year I joined the HTC revolution. I got a Wizard and this worked fine with the kit. I'm not a heavy user as I don't drive as part of my work, but didn't encounter any issues the times I did use it.
I lost my Wizard on a train and got the Hermes as a replacement (thanks household contents insurance). Connected it up to the kit in the car and once again I didn't have any trouble. I have only had it a few weeks so the device wasn't really setup, I didn't have voice tags or anything, but I was receiving calls OK and could make calls from the device.
So I took the plunge on Sunday and updated my O2 Hermes to the WM6 Rom from O2. I was really quite pleased with it, seems to be more responsive and generally a pretty good upgrade.
I didn't expect to have any issues with the car kit. Silly me. Connected up fine. When I pressed the button to invoke the voice tags, I didn't hear anything out of the speakers. This was a bit strange as before you would hear either the "Peep peep" noise to tell you to speak or the "You don't have any voice tags set, idiot" noise that you get otherwise. I didn't think much of it. Yesterday it got it's baptism of fire. My friend called me, I hit the button to answer and heard.....silence. The kit was connected, the call was answered and I could hear bugger all. Most amusingly my friend could hear me perfectly and started having a conversation with me until I pointed out that I couldn't hear anything.
So has anyone got any ideas? I am guessing that something has changed in the BT stack between WM5 and WM6 but any ideas what? I know a lot of people have written a lot of threads regarding BT car kit issues but I hadn't seen one quite like this.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Cheers
Ian
School boy error
It seems that it wasn't anything to do with the phone at all.
Coincidence struck and it just happened that the day after I flashed my phone, a wire came loose connecting the hands free kit to the stereo!
I worked this out when I tried my old Nokia on it just to make sure it was a problem with the phone. When I couldn't hear anything on that I knew there was a problem elsewhere!
After I took out the stereo and replugged everything back together it all worked fine again.
Sorry about that!
My old HTC Star Trek (3125) did this well, and when I got my HD2 I was pissed to find out that HTC had strayed from MS's Bluetooth stack and broke.
I hoped this would be fixed on the Android platform, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I ride motorcycles too and from work and on trips. I used to take calls on the bike but anymore what I really need to know when the phone rings if it's from someone I need to pull over and take the call from, or from someone that I can just let it go to VM. Having texts read over BT would be nice too.
I tried Sanity... even paid for it hoping the other features would make it work. No joy.
Has anyone else go this working?
so my samsung fall
no visual damage
music and video working
but now when i want make a call
i hear a loud bshhhhhsnnsbsjhhbbsbv
cant hear the partner he cant hear me
now i found that when i press speaker button i can hear the partner also when i strongly bend the phone everything is normal
so eiter way strong push and keep pusing right below the front camera solves the issue of error
second troubleshoot
i insert headphones with mic... exactly the same ..i call someone and i hear this loud thing no call possible......
and third issue
i gave the phone to my local indian phone shop guy with my phone pin :laugh: he said he try to repair he couldnt but now im worried he might steal my bitcoins ..i have the bootloader unlocked but not rooted i failed to do that ..can somebody be able to clone my apps without root ? or clone my 2fa ?
thanks for help
As nobody else has replied i will;
I think your phone is dead, buy a new one and dont fall over and bend it.
