I know this topic has be address many many times and there are still no soluation to the problem.
So.. I want to make a poll to see how many user is experiencing this problem.
I hope to grather enough data to see if it is a hardware problem or Firmware problem so that i can address to O2 regarding this issue.
I love my PDA/phone.. but... this issuse really bugs me cos i used the phone for business and it always happens when a important call arrived... :evil:
Pls, Lets Vote with your honest answer...
Derek
No problems here....
What i've experienced is that sometimes the ringing sound is very quite even though the volume is at maximum. I make a soft reset and everything's back to normal.
NO SOUND
I have also experienced the same. I normally have to do a soft reset to fix the problem. Seems its a firmware issue to me.
One more issue is that we need to disable the power off system setting after 3minutes.
If not, a phone call will be automatically ended after 3 minutes talking.
i have also experienced this problem. i had a important caller call me twice and i didnt hear my phone ring. it was also next to me. luckily, i had my backup phone with me when he tried that line.
agreed that we shouldnt have to soft reset to get back the ring tone functionality. i personally think its a caller id version problem, but thats my opinion cause its easier to fix. i just hope it isnt a firmware problem since i wont hold my breathe on O2 releasing a rom upgrade in my phone version.
im going to try some reg tweaks to see if it will help, once my main pc is up and running (currently moving). i just dont want to go back to an older rom because of a ringing problem. but it IS a big problem for most of us.
ps. sorry about the spelling mistakes and punctuations. im on my pda at a coffee shop.
Yup I have see the no sould on outgoing, no sound on incoming, reset does the trick for me. Also feel that the sound is low in general (even if set to max)
Ha.. i call XDA today in their headoffice in Singapore. The CS guy told me.. they know this issue and say there will be a new (Rom) or patch release very soon.
After seeing the vote result. I believe that the issue is do to software, not hardware.
I have a firend that design such product. he told me that it could be that DSP script is not written well. He said, the Echo Cancelling must be overflow causing the unit to manufunction. and after reset, the overflow will be clear out, so the unit function again.
I hope O2 is really releasing a new patch to fix this issue. If not, i think i am force to go back to my Sony Ericsson P910i or one PDA and one phone option.
i'm glad that O2 recognises the problem and not passing it on to other people. thanks for the information rcbear. glad you took the extra steps get them looking this way.
i hope "soon" means in a waek or two.
same problem
My ringer always works but sometimes, at least every other day. When someone calls me i can not hear them, they can sort of hear me, but the earpiece is dead. A soft reset fix's this problem. Is my issue related to the current issue dicussed in this thread? Thanks

I have the problem
But I get it seldom and sporadically.

Hi Jeffro01..
Welcome to the club.. :lol:
Derek
I don't seem to have the ring volume problem, but my phone will get into a state where it rings, I answer the phone, but there is no audio. In the six or so times it's happened, I haven't really determined if the caller can hear me. A reboot fixes it.
I can't pin down any one thing I do to cause it to get into this state, but it seems like a software/firmware issue.
I have this problem too.
I had to send my BT headset for repair for two weeks and noticed it did not happen during that time while it started again since I got my BT back.
When it happens (once to twice a week) I soft reset my SPVM2000 and it then is ok.
Also the BT Orange Switzerland patch makes the problem appear less often.
Phone ring problem got me twice today...
Both times, never heard three calls, but the phone still reports them as being missed.
Gotta be a solution for this or I'll be soft resetting every time I finish a call/use.

If so I have 2 questions for everyone who has this issue:
1, Do you use a bluetooth headset or any other bluetooth device (gps...)?
2, What is your current bluetooth version and build?
I have Bluetooth build 3900, and I'm using 1.33.
No probleme here
not using BT or WiFi.
Where can I find my BT version?
I don't also have the 3 minutes switch off pb, the PDA function switch off after 3 minutes but the phone remains operational. I often switch the PDA off myself whilst on the phone to save on batteries.
...Hi everyone! (1st post!)...
I get the dead-speaker in calls too...
I took delivery of my first SPV M2000 a couple of weeks ago; it had a few problems, one of which was that the speaker would be dead occassionally when making or answering calls requiring a soft-reset to resolve. I initially thought this might be caused by the device not correctly recognising external hardware had become disconnected - handsfree/BT/car-cradle etc. - but it did seem to be at random.
Orange replaced the device last week; and by day 3 without using any handsfree/cradles etc. and BT and WiFi not even enabled (much less paired/connected); the dead-speaker problem reappeared.
I'm not going to bother chasing Orange about this issue on its own (this device doesn't exhibit any of the other problems I had with my first); as it seems to be a pretty common problem that's going to require a software update to fix. Needless to say when I read that HTC have written a fix I will be on Orange's back to make a fix for their ROMs public. (dreaming?).
Just FYI, both the initial device I was supplied and the replacement have the same software versions (in my sig).
Regards,
Rob.
I circumvented (temporally fixed) the ringtone problem by setting the default ringtone to "None", and also set the phone to vibrate. Then Re-enabled MS Voice Command to announce all incoming calls. The only problem is, the voice isn't loud enough in noisy places, but it does the job in the office or semi noisy environment. I guess this will have to do until a verified fix comes along our way.
When I am on a call and another person rings, most of the time when I try to accept the incoming call the phone will hang. If I wait until the incoming call give up then sometimes I can go back to the first call but often I lose both.
When the phone loses both calls, it shows no service for about 10 seconds then finds a signal and can then be used again.
I thought the issue was with the Black Edition ROM but even when I have switched to Schaps the problem exists.
I have never updated the radio on my phone as I am pretty sure I bricked my last one doing a radio update. It is still with the orginal T-Mobile UK radio stack.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Aidan
did you install some programs that might be conflicting with that? I had that issue before and I format the phone and start all over and the problem is gone now.
HTC desire freeze/hang after receiving a voice call.
When I receive a voice call then I see following strange behavior:
- Ring tone goes, but it stops after a few seconds.
- I can answer the call, but when the call is ended then my phone hangs/freezes.
=> I have to remove the battery...
Are there people with the same problem? Or is this already posted somewhere with cause and fix?
I'm using the oxygen ROM on my phone, but I also saw this with CM MOD7.
I have a screen protector foil on my phone, is this the cause? (I read this somewhere).
I can't remember that I had this problem with the RUU rom.
Br
Same thing here...
Every beautiful rom tried, ended up with freezes or black screens. Phone does not ring, even if the caller sounds like it would.
Saw this tip here, which I have not tried yet, but I will do.
My phone is a pvt4 and some guys (I hope you not see this as politics) here have a strong dislike for rom manager.
h**p://androidforums.com/desire-all-things-root/356192-warning-do-not-use-rom-manager.html
So, I am flashing know and report back in a few days. (Usually first days things seems right, but after a while I end up with a useless phone, flashing back to ugly RUU.
I will use (AmonRA Recovery image) with unrevoked and then re-try flashing RevolutioN.xMas.Edition.v3.0.A2SD2B-signed
My brother has the similar problem
He finds his Desire GSM screen black, and not reacting to the buttons. he has to remove the battery and turn the phone on. this is happening on recieving calls and on custom roms, as we saw, on any rom that we tried. it's not happening on stock rom, but we want to have an solution where he isn't limited with the internal space.
i look in the forum, but does someone have and advice how to use stock rom with enlarged space? like stok rom with app2sd or another similar rom (maybe i didn't write the names correctly)
thanks in advance for your help and advices
Hi guys,
my gf is using a Wildfire, i'm constantly having problems of reaching her. 3g works fine and KIK or Whatsapp is great. But when i try to call her, her phone sometimes does not even ring and she gets a message that she had a missed call.
It's not a carrier problem (i think...) we have the same one and i never had such problems.
Then what usually helps is when she puts her phone to airplane mode and then back to normal, then i can reach her.
I've tried many different ROMs and no change, from CM to hybrids etc..
The only thing i have not tried is a completely stock ROM.
Any ideas on what might be the problem?
EDIT: it's not just a problem with me, other people from other carriers also sometimes have problems reaching her, and sometimes everything is fine
and also, when she calls me, and i reject the call and then after a minute try to reach her back, it's almost certain that i will not be able to get to her
then i send her a KIK to go to airplane mode and back...
anyone?
if You have try changing the ROM maybe its a hardware problem. You can try updating the Radio (no the FM radio, radio is the software that connects the hardware with the software for making calls and 3g connection)... http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Wildfire:_Support_Downloads ...3.35.20.10 its the last one, update by flashing in the recovery, you also need first to go to ROM Manager and flash an older recovery (2.5.4, 2x) ClockWorkMod 3x or 4x or 5x dont flash radios...
I have an I9195 with I9195XXUBMJ7 baseband version. It has been performing very well but over the last month or so it has started breaking up during calls, slowing down a lot and then either freezing up or rebooting. Sometimes I am unable to answer incoming calls - the phone rings but nothing happens when I try to answer a call. I got an OTA "stability" update recently which I hoped would fix this but it has been happening more rather than less since then. The problem seems to happen almost exclusively when I am using the phone function.
I realise that this is a rather vague description of the problem. Has anybody had similar problems? Can somebody recommend a suitable debugging tool (non-root) that will help me sort this out, or a solution?
If all else fails I'll do a factory reset, but I'd like to try to get to the bottom of the problem if possible . . .
