OK
When I have my headphones in I want to be able to hear a new email come in and if it rings, so have the phone on a loud setting.
Trouble is, this also makes the phone be loud and disturbs people around me with it blasting out of the speaker.
Can the phone be made quiet and still have it all through the headphones?

I don't know what is different on your side, but when a notification comes through while I have my headphones on and listening to music, the music dims, notification goes on and music goes back to normal. With an incoming call the music dims the same and the ringtone also plays through the headphones. When the call is finished, you just go on with the music.

Mmm interesting. So is your phone completely silent when this happens?
I've tested again and can't get my phone quiet but have notifications playing.
with your headphones plugged in - do you get a the headset icon on the top of the screen?

Yep. Tried it with physically connecting and via bluetooth and both times get the icon and both times plays through phone and headset.
Can anyone test theirs to make sure is not just me ...... Or if its Mr and I'm doing something wrong.

if you are using the headphones supplied from htc then i am not sure, if you are plugging in standard headphones direct then read this thread had similar problems and solved it with a £1.00 cable,

It also does this when connected with bluetooth which has no connection to the socket.
Does yours mute the phone?
No one has actually said if this happens to them or not yet.
My phone doesn't mute the external speaker when the original headphone jack is connected either.
I would have thought this is quitea big flaw. Who wants to hear the phone when you gave your headphones in?
AlsoI find it odd thatI haven't seen many people talking about the same issue.
It must be something that you have installed on the phone, I actually had a few bugs here and there with the phone in the beginning until i done a factory wipe on it and started again I was having a problem with the music player only playing until the screen timed out then stopping the music giving me a minute of music. never did solve it, reset the device and its never happened again.
Basically when i play music on mine it it will play through the speaker on the phone, then when i plug in the headphones it will play through the headphones muting the phone, in point of fact i cannot get it to play through the headphones and the onphone speaker at the same time at all. Then when the phone rings the ringing will be heard in my headphones and also it will sound on the phone at the same time turning my music down at the same time. then once the call is finished the music resumes automatically.
Either your phone is playing silly beggars like mine did in the beginning or you have an app installed that is causing the problems. if you reset it back to default and the problem still occurs then you may have a faulty handset.
Sorry I'm not quite sure I made myself clear.
If I have my headphones inI don't want anything to come from the phone speaker. Something that doesn't happen. I get the ringing and all notifications through my headphones aswell as the phone.
Why would you want the phone to blast out when someone calls out every time you get a text or email if you have headphones on? I'm glad I don't commute.
my phone's external speaker makes no noise with headphones attached..

OK cool.
So is that with official headset?
Can you then hear the notifications and ringing through your headset and the phone silent?
Is your profile on " normal" ?
Sound profile is on normal.. i am using sony headphones.. (the standard ones are not great to be honest) i also use nuforce ne8s... same story..
yes i can hear notifications through the headphones.. like when a text etc comes through
Thanks,
Michael

Ta.
It would appear that I have a dodgy handset then.
As I did a factory reset just now.
I've tried with various headsets wired and Bluetooth and can't get it to be silent with headphones attached.
I'm going down to cpw tomorrow to sort it.

And so Michael it would appear that from what haggisuk99 is saying above, he too had a dodgy handset aswell as ragwo
Anyone else able to have headphones connected, have someone ring them and the ringing ONLY be heard in the headphones NOT from the phone ?

I don't believe I have a dodgy headphone socket as I have never had any issues with my headPHONES when using them with the Desire.
But I also confirm that the Ringtone plays in both the headPHONE and through the speaker, i.e. the speaker is not muted as it was on my previous WinMo phone Touch Pro/Raphael.
Now whether this is by design or a bug is the real question. I couldn't believe this is by design, but you never know!
I doubt its the headphone socket, something to do with software possibly ?
Ive got a mate to test his aswell, results to come later.
So now, that's 4 in this thread with the same issue.
And if i dont hear anything later, i will go into CPW tomorrow to try their stock ones.
I wrote to htc with my problem and got this reply. To be fair it only took 3 days for a reply.
Not sure they got it completely as I'm more interested in notifications playing out more than ringing.
If you agree with me please email HTC.

Hi
Thank you for contacting us. In respect of the query that you have raised regarding the functionality of the HTC Desire speaker when using headphones, we must advise you that this is the correct operation of the device by design. Most customers would find it inconvenient and uncomfortable to have notifications and ringtones coming through their headset when they are listening to music (which is the primary purpose of connecting the headphones). Also, it is considered that when you are in a quiet environment, it is not useful to be able to hear the phone ring as you would not be able to talk. It is recommended therefore that you set your phone to vibrate mode. Although we greatly appreciate your suggestions and will pass these on to our software development team, for the above reasons it is highly unlikely that this functionality will be changed. If you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Kind Regards
So someone just called me, and I could barely hear the ringing. I checked the Volume settings, and I had ringer volume all the way up.
Then, I noticed that the ringing was coming out of the earpiece instead of the speakerphone speaker.
Here's where it gets weird, though... Someone just called me as I was writing this post, and the ring came out of the speakerphone speaker like it's supposed to...
Additionally, when I'm using my new Samsung bluetooth headset that worked just fine before the update, i can hear the person I'm calling, but they can't hear me.
Is anyone else having weird audio issues?
Yes, I am having similar issues. All audio comes through the earpiece. Very annoying as I like listening to music on speaker phone but I can barely hear it through the earpiece. I hope there is a fix for this soon.
I am lucky I do not have this issue, but I think they were trying to prevent all of the blown speaker issues that have been posted about. Just a guess. Maybe this earpiece issue is a side effect
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
same problem
hopefully someone can look at this and fix it
When I was listening to music earlier and watching YouTube, I heard a pop noise come from my speaker a couple times... My volume was only at half, so I don't know what the problem is. Does it sound like a hardware problem, and should I exchange my phone?
Also seems to happen sometimes when I start a song with Google Play Music and turn on the volume from silent
My G3 also makes popping noises and sound quality in general is pretty bad compared to most other phones I've had. I wonder if this is a known problem and if they have an easy fix.
I've noticed that as well. During a call I noticed that the earpiece speaker does not sounds good at all. It sounds like there might be something loose inside of the phone. Anyone else having bad phone call speaker quality?
Same here with the earpiece speaker. It was really frustrating. Strange was the fact that the problem was gone when I removed the back cover Also after HR the problem has been gone for a couple of days.
I had to get my money back for the device.
Half way through the day i wanted to listen to music, started playing music but no sound come out of the speaker even when volume is turned all the way up. If I listen Close to the speakers I can only hear a continuous soft thudding noise, someone help??
Got warranty?

Same thing happened to me and I replaced it. Try clicking and holding down the volume up button continuously while music is playing.
Wonder anyone have the same problem as mine.
My speaker produce crackling sound when in call or when watching youtube.
Actually all apps that produce sound.
However after restart, problem gone.
But will come back after awhile.
*#0*# test speaker, no issues.
So i gather might be software issue.
Anyone have the same problem or remedy?

Did you try lowering the volume to see if it still cracks? Is it on all YouTube videos or just some.

It happens with whatsapp call, samsung music player, anything that project sound. Even with lower volume. After reboot the crackling will go away.
Also notice that it happens more often if battery is in optimized or lower mode. Very weird.
This happend with my device as well, i got a replacement from Samsung.

How old is your unit when you get it changed?
Are they able to finf out the issue?
The sound quality is bad in this phone. I had a s20u with both speakers crackling during phone calls, whatsapp calls, skype calls etc and also when certain youtube videos are played (for example piano tunes) there is buzz/crackle from earpiece speaker. I tested my speakers too from *#0*# but there was no issue then.. the sound was crystal clear from both the speakers. Got it replaced and bought a new s20 ultra but this one have the same issue. Will sell it in next few months and switch back to Apple.

It was just a day old and yes the crackling sound was clearly audible on high volume.
