What ROM are you using? I had this problem but reflashed the ROM and it sorted it.
I use the default one that comes with desire s

I'd return it to the store or HTC, they should replace/repair it.
Seems like a hardware issue. I pretty sure there's no setting for this.
Just had a thought...you say in the last few days this has started happening. What have you changed or installed in the last few days that could cause this? may be a good starting point.
I have not installed or changed any setting. There was some dirt in the usb port

The only thing which could initiate calls in loudspeaker mode is, from what i know, "car mode". The phone automatically switches to "car mode" when some USB pins are "shorted", from what i read. Make sure you use original chargers and cables and check your USB port for dirt or damage.

Hi. I've had my Desire for some weeks now. But some day or two ago the text vibration stopped working. It's only the vibration when I get a text that doesn't work. When someone calls, feedback when I'm writing also work.
Anyone of you that know what it could be? I've checked settings etc.

I had the very same problem with my first Desire on a week or two after I got it. I tried literally everything. I called HTC they had no idea what to do nor how to fix it. So I called T-Mobile (who I got the phone from) told them about it, they couldn't fix it either so I got a replacement phone.
Seemingly there is no way of fixing it. The motor is fine, but something is bugged. Perhaps one of the more astute Desire users (using custom ROMs) may be able to shed some more light on the problem, but as far as I know, it is unfixable.
Ok. I guess I need to contact the store I got it from. Thanks

This is a known issue which means the text vibration stops working when the battery gets low and it doesn't come back after charging the phone.
Download and install sound manager from Android market, use it to turn on text message vibration and it'll all work again for you. Best of all It's all completely free.
Let us know if it works for you like it did for me.

I just love a problem like this that seems unfixable only to find a detailed and workable fix. Bravo.
I wish I would've known that before getting a replacement phone. Ah well, it didn't cost me anything.
Glad it worked for you all, can't remember where I first heard it but it worked for me

I installed sound manager after, I observed that the vibration does not work on my phone.For the beginning all was OK,I began testing and saw that from 5 calls 3-4 are without vibration and 1 is with the vibration,though the vibration is on from phone settings and sound manager.I didn't try to factory reset the phone because I would lose everything .Any ideas would be appreciated.
I had this problem a while ago. Download 'Sound Manager' from the Market, and there's an option in it, 'Vibrate Always' or something. That did it for me anyway, hope it helps you

@BUTCHER0123
I had an intermittent problem with the vibrate function after about 6 months. I sent my phone back to HTC. Initially they replaced the motherboard which didn't fix the problem. I sent it back again (set as priority) and they replaced the vibration module. It all works fine now. It's an option to consider if you can put up with being without your phone but I think it's worth doing.
whats up guys! I bought a used HTC Rhodium/ Touch Pro 2 on eBay and it arrived today. I'd appreciate it if you guys could help me out with two problems I'm having.
I'm having a weird issue where the microphone icon toggles on and off (i also hear some sort of enabled/disabled sound going on/off every 10 sec or so) and i sometimes hear a "please repeat" command. Also, whenever this happens any text box I select automatically spams "gggggggggggggggg" indefinitely
Seems like a rather strange issue to me. If I reboot the phone, or have it off for a good 5+ mins, the phone is problem free for 1-2 minutes. Then the above problems occur again
Anyone have any insight? I enjoy this phone so far and it'd be a shame if i need to return it. I upgraded the ROM to the most recent WM 6.5 and it did not doing anything

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

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?
Im on cm7 ..after I factory reset everything is fine till I reboot ..once I reboot and try making or receive a call the loudspeaker is enabled automatically ...how to deactivate this?
I've tried formatting almost everything possible and I've even reflashed cm7many times...currently I'm on day latest cm7
Try a stock ROM and see if you have the same issue.
If you do, it must be a hardware issue. This happens if the micro usb port is unclean and it thinks it is connected to a dock. I had this problem once on sense. Cleaned the port and it started working again.
Remember that you can damage the port easily so be careful. Look up some guides on how to do it.
Take this as a DISCLAIMER.

Guys this is not a prblm its a feature of HTC phones wen ever u pick the call it enables loud speaker right its bcoz of sensor u activated.this happen with me too. go to settings>sound>incoming calls untick this options
1.quiet ring on pickup
2.pocket mode
3.flip for speakers
But this things all working oly stock not in Cm7.anyway u check for this in Cm7
See the screen shot
Hope I helped
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S using Tapatalk 2
That is not entirely correct.
What the HTC features do are:
1. Quiet ring on pickup - Silences the ringing as soon as the phone is picked up
2. Pocket Mode - Louder ringtone while in a bag/pocket (When the ambient light sensors is not picking up much light)
3. Flip For Speaker - Turns on speaker phone when the phone is upside down on a flat surface.
None of these will switch on the speaker on start except the car mode.
Flip for speaker does it..Tht option make the loud speaker on wen every time u receives a call

If it does, you may have the same problem as the OP. Could you please try disabling that option and trying it once?

Who knew! You're using the stock ROM or a custom sense ROM? In my case, it wasn't that. I remember having tried everything else!!
But that flip for speaker is probably the biggest thing I miss on non-sense ROMs. I found a similar app which switches on the speaker when away from your ear after a time period but that's not as effective and cause havoc sometimes.

take your USB cable and stab your USB port many times. Some dust may have collected there so the phone thinks it is connected to a car dock and goes into car mode

Install es file explorer from play, once installed enable the root persmissions inside settings of es exlplorer.
Once you have access to root - go to system - then look for 'laputa' delete them there are about 3 or so of these laputa files.
And done. :good:
