[Q] Camera, flash, led, headphone jack, speaker does not work - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Thing is that I flashed new ROM (Runnymede AIO V6.0.4.3) on my Desire, but after flashing I saw that camera does not work, simply black screen, but I know that flash worked. I thought that ROM has not installed correctly and installed it again, after that also flash did not and as I checked later also front speaker, LED, headphone jack did not work.
I found some threads with similar problem, but no answer so I still ask. Tried different Radios, but no luck. (Currently have 5.17.05.23) Also did backup to previous ROM, but even then nothing. Although I know everything worked.
Could it be only Software problem? Or something else went terribly wrong?
Interesting thing is that when I flash new ROM or Radio sometimes home, menu, search buttons have light (but buttons work) sometimes not.
Is there anything that I could try?

[Q] Please help!!! MIC is breaked after Update...

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?)

Annoying sound problem

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!

[Q] Camera and headphone jack don't work despite updating radios and switching ROMs

This happened all of a sudden, and I'm really not sure why. The camera is just a black screen, which can only be minimised by pressing the home button. The headphone jack recognises nothing.
At first I thought it was the ROM (LeeDroid 2.2f), so I wiped the data/cache/dalvik cache and reverted to Pinky's 1.8. I've also tried AuraxTSense 8.1.4 with no luck. All ROMs work perfectly fine except this issue.
After looking it up, everyone seems to jump at the radios. I flash radios by picking the zip file whilst in recovery (clockwork), installing, rebooting and having it write the image, not touching my phone while it boots up, and having it show the new flashed radio in the options/bootloader sections.
I have tried the specific radios linked to in the OP of each of the ROMs, and I have tried the latest ones. I've been through about 5 at least today on multiple ROMs, with no luck.
I really want my camera and headphone jack back. Please help.
Try going back to stock rom. If that doesn't solve it, then I think you have a hardware problem.
I'm currently trying a rooted version of 2.10.405.2 including radio from this thread. Is that sufficient testing of going back to stock (because my backup software requires root) or does it have to be RUU?
Edit: That rooted stock ROM has the same issue -_- will try RUU.
Edit 2: The flash LED no longer works either. For example the torch application.
The camera app is still just a black screen. No menu, no way to quit except terminating the process.
The headphone socket is still dead. The halfway-in trick doesn't work either.
These parts are all very close to each other, so I'm leaning towards hardware. However the phone can still make/receive calls, messages, wifi, 3G, etc... everything apart from camera, rear LED and headphones.
This seems to happen a lot according to Google. Will think twice about getting another HTC phone.

[Q] camera, headphone jack, LED-Flash-Light don't work after flashing CM7

I know that there is a thread for my question but it's a very old one. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785288)
After I flashed CM7 for the first time I discovered following problems:
- camera and camera flashlight don't work, the camera app doesn't even start
- headphone jack doesn't work
- notification LED doesn't work
- and I have to use the speakers when I want to phone somebody
First I thought it was an issue with the radio (like mentioned in the other thread). However after flashing the latest radio again, none of my problems disappeared.
Thank you for your answers!
sorry forgot something, I'm now on this radio version: 5.17.05.23
Full format, flash again.
did this befor. I tryed different radios and ROM constelations too.
Hi!
I have exactly the same issue! (no camera, no led, no flash-lite, no headphones)
I'm using a stock ROM (rooted/S-Off with revolutionnary)
It happened without any flash attempt. My phone just rebooted, and then was veeeeeeerrrry slow. After a night without the battery it was almost working (but no led, nor flash, camera and jack).
I read the two threads, and tried to flash the newest radio several times without any success.
I fear a hardware problem with the radio... :-/

No sensors/GPS with custom roms

Last weekend I flashed an old HTC One X I had lying around with This Cyanogen
After a while I noticed location services was barely working.
Using androsensor I saw that, apart from sound and battery, none of my sensors were registering anything (waiting for event, or zero), and GPS saw NO satellites at all. (Sony in at the same time saw 21)
Being my first flash, I was thinking user error, everything else was working but hey.
I tried this resurrection remix, exactly the same result
I went back to old storage layout and tried the latest cm-11 snapshot, no difference.
Since I didn't think of testing the gps & co before flashing, I wanted to try to return to stock rom. but that's not as easy as it sounds apparently.
Backups got wiped while I was trying to get my first flash, and online references and links to tools are mostly invalid now.
I tried an original recovery and locking the bootloader, but got an error running the presumably correct RRU.exem, probably due to the 1.7x HBOOT I have.
There might be a hardware issue, I opened the device to check a dicky USB connector, but don't see any damage.
Finally tried This cyanogen again no difference.
So is there anyone left here with some more experience/insight that can help me get the sensors working in custom rom, OR be able to get me back to stock, so I can test them there.
If you need any more details, just ask.
