Hi,
Does anybody else have a problem with microphone when loudspeaker is on during a call? Ive had quite a few people complaining that they cant hear me when Ive got the speaker on. As soon as I switch off the speaker, they can hear me fine. Does not matter if I place the mic close to me or move it further away, they still say they have trouble hearing me with speaker on.
Any ideas if I can resolve this? Have tried AGC setting with no success.
Thanks
I have the same problem for a while. Can't use speaker phone. It was working fine before so I am thinking some of the software that I installed render the speaker useless. I will try to backup everything and then do a hard reset to see if the problem still exists.
My Friend; I have the Same Case in my Kaiser and I post yesterday this issue but with no luck . we have to find a solution for this bugs, I tried something it might improve it a little ; during the call reduce the Speaker volume to be 2 degree only and it might help. But we have to know if it is a common in all devices or not
I tried the Hard reset but it is smae and no luck yet
I just tried the method proposed in abother thread here and it fixed the problem! I disabled the Microphone AGC in the phone setting and it works fine now. Save me some hassle.
are you sure of disable AGC as I tried but it is the same result
i have the same problem, and i don't have the auto mic gain enabled. i haven't hard reset yet, but it stopped working properly after i installed resco voice recorder and/or vito voice...
Looking at another thread, it may be that the speaker is half duplex. I.e you both cant be speaking at the same time. Wonder if this can be resolved?
My Kaiser comes by default Microphone AGC disabled, and the problem persists. Any suggestion???? thanks.

Precisely you are right. I do not think by enabling/disabling the Microphone AGC does help. This is apparently a design fault. I have got my set replaced from the service center but still having the exact problem.
I wonder if HTC can fix this problem! I read from one of the threads somewhere that one of the users found the MDA Vario III works perfect...though they are also of the kaiser family....

Same problem, and i haven't modded mine at all. Using the default ATT ROM and tried speakerphone, couldn't be heard...
I had the same problem when using my TyTn and attempting to use the speaker phone. I was hoping this would be resolved in the TyTn II but it's the same problem where the person you speaking to complains they can't hear you properly.
I think its a common problem in this model as my device is brand new and same problem
Strange. I was making some tests last night, talking to another person using the speakerphone.
It worked just fine most of the time. Her voice was a little distorted due to the bad quality (maybe just bad equalization) of the speaker, but she told me she could hear me well. She told that even though I was speaking far from the mic and not that loud, the sound came just clear to her. The only thing she noticed was that I sounded like an answering machine .I also tested running some programs while speaking to her.. and then, coincidence or not, she heard some static for a second or two.
I also tested speaking while she was also speaking, and we both heard each other. It worked as a full-duplex.
I must say that it was late at night, so it was all silent. Except when my dog started barking, he was far away at the yard, and she heard him too.
I used it some days ago while driving, and she couldn't hear me. I had the radio on, and there was traffic sound and stuff. I had to turn the speaker off because I was driving and I was in a hurry, so I couldn't test any further.
Later on, I tested it with my girlfriend when we both were in my car and I was driving. She said she could hear me, but then it started echoing due to the loudness of my speaker, and that was all we could test.
I had Microphone AGC disabled in all tests.
I have the same problem... the other person cannot hear me when i am on speaker
i have the same problem!!!
This is a serious problem it appears most of us are having with the speaker phone microphone.
Has anyone logged this problem with HTC?
It looks like a s/w update will be required to fix?
I am using with an MDA Vario III UK and it seems to be working fine, I have not had any problems even after installing software or by having AVG on or off.
There is a problem if both parties speak at the same time where either person may not hear the other, I think that is to do with a duplex problem mentioned earlier in the thread.
It appears a number of people have the problem and a number do not. It may be software version related.
I am using the following software on an AT&T Tilt:
ROM version: 1.57.502.2
Radio version: 22.45.88.07H
We need to find a pattern with the problem, Can others share what software they are running and if they have the microphone problem?
Speaker problem is software
I can confirm that it is a software problem. When I recieved my MDA Vario III didn't had the speaker problem but as soon as I flashed my device with either the kaiser or tytn II rom the problem occured. Don't know how to solve it...

Bought Tilt few weeks ago and found out, like many on this forum, that in-car bluetooth phone system was not working properly. Sound was terrible and microphone did not work at all.
Things I tried: Tilt with AT&T rom; AT&T rom withouth bloatware;jetBTFExt-1.31; registry tweeks. Nothing worked.
I still have Qtek S200 and it works just fine.
Reading few post here and there, I found what worked for me.
After placing a call or answering a call, transfer it to handset and back to the car system.
Sound quality and microphone will be working properly.
I believe the problem is in establishing proper connection between Tilt and car system when call is initiated or answered.
Bad part about this workaround is that it take some time to push those buttons and it very very annoying. However, before real fix is found, if I need to have a long conversation during driving I will use this method.

I agree, thats the method Ive been using, but quite annoying. However it is a lot better than holding the phone in your hand while driving AND talking. Hope HTC will fix this annoying issue.
I am using HTC Rom and it links with Mercedes Benz BlueTooth perfectly. It shows all my contacts infomations alone with call history od called and received.
Navigation/phone system bug?

Do you have a map screen coming up after you press "Use Handset" button? This is something that I have in my car (2007 G35x).

If youre refering to the GPS map, then yes. So then I have to press "PHONE" on the unit again to connect.

My TILT links fine w/the G35 but its the quality of the phone call that is terrible. Also I have heard of reports that the HTC ROM doesnt make the call quality any better vs the AT&T ROM
Anyone else got this issue and is there a new bluetooth stack or something to resolve it?
When I click the answer button on any bluetooth headset (currently using the iqua solar powered one), the sound is temporarily diverted to by mobile before the bluetooth properly picks up, and also during that slugging moment, any ringtone playing is diverted to the caller's earpiece (i.e. sent out by my mic).
One caller complained it had nearly deafened them.
Anyone able to help?
Having the same issue with my parrot bluetooth and my Tilt
Can someone purrlleeeease help with this issue? I am now scared to answer any calls, lest I get shouted at with, "GOD WHAT WAS THAT NOISE? IT NEARLY DEAFENED ME!"
You really haven't give a lot of info here.
I mean what Rom are you running, what BT hardware and reg tweaks do your use etc.
Info is required to be of any assistance.
Note my signature shows exactly what Rom(s) I'm currently using.
Many thanks. Here are my versions:
HTC TyTN II
ROM: 1.0 Sleuth
ROM date: 08/28/07
Radio version: 1.27.12.11
Protocol version: 22.45.88.07H
Essentially I think a new Bluetooth stack might solve it, but I really wish to avoid losing all data by flashing a new ROM altogether.
A new Bluetooth stack on its own would be wonderful... or a way to restore my data back to a newer ROM. Would Sprite Backup do that if I use Sleuth's WM6.1 ROM?

I know the commercial version is supposed to support "Rom Upgrade" support but I'm not sure if that is in the version that is floating around the forums.
What you can do though is make a backup prior to upgrading.
Then upgrade to test if the problem is fixed in one of WM6.1 roms.
Then downgrade and restore your back-up.
Now you will know if there is even a point to expending the effort of trying to extract the BT Stack.
Don't take offense at this next statement but if you put forth that effort it might endear someone more skilled to your cause as you've provided a "Proof of Concept" so to speak.
Okay I have just upgraded to Sleuth's v3 (WM6.1). Sadly the bluetooth issue remains, despite the new Radio version.
If someone calls, and I answer using the bluetooth headset, for 1 second their audio is output to the speaker of the Kaiser. I believe it is during that second that they also hear the end of the ring tone, which is what deafens them.
An unsatisfactory workaround is to use a quite ringtone or vibrate only, but that is hardly ideal. If anyone knows of any other solution or a bluetooth stack that is a bit snappier when answering via headset, it would be great appreciated

Same issue here with the same new ROM.
I'm having the same problem. When I push the button on my BT HF it gives a horrible noise to the caller at the other end for a second. In my case I doubt it is ring tone, it doesn't sound anythin like the tone I'm using, it's just like loud crackling or smth.
I can't give you any version numbers cause by TyTN II is sent off to warranty (3rd time already). This time it stopped accepting and making calls while showing 3G symbol. Previously I had band selection on auto and had no problems. Now even after hard reset no calls could be made so off it went again. The first two faults where the speaker and the "Fn" light.
I am having the same problem, the handet is at HTC's repair facility for this and a few nagging issues. I will report what they find.
Mine isn't so much the ringtone it just sounds like a loud static sound. I thought it was the headset but I tried it with 3 different headsets and the Bluethooth in my car and they all have the same problem.
Got my phone back today and I can't say I'm impressed with HTC. First they requested that I send it in the original box then must have thrown it out and sent it in some crap box without enough padding. They didn't even send a note or invoice saying what had been done, which was nothing.
They claim they couldn't find anything wrong and when I called support the guy thought it a joke.
Needless to say it is still deafening and I am pissed.
Same Issue Here... It is almost as if there is a dely in cutting off the WAV/WMA file. Bluetooth Picks up and and both parties get the end of the ring tone.
Had the issued with the origional AT&T rom
Have the issue with Slueth 3.0 and Alex 5.2
If anyone finds a fix please let me know...
I am using PhoneAlarm - Don't know if that is related.
I've had the same complaints from some of my callers, and try to answer between rings as much as possible. The complaints have gone way down. Of course, we shouldn't have to jump thru hoops to answer our phones!
Does anyone have contact info to point HTC to this worrying thread? We need a patch release ASAP. A phone that can't answer calls properly? Yikes.
No issues with my BlueAnt Z9. Have you guys tried different headsets?
I think you may have just been lucky. It is uncommon to A) answer during the ringtone, and B) have the caller complain about the loud noise.
It happens on my Bluetooth earpiece, and Nokia car kit, and JVC car kit. So, it is for HTC to resolve.
I've tried three headsets and it happens on all of them. It happens even when I have the phone on vibrate.
I spent an hour on the phone with HTC support and they are awful, even after telling her that it happens on three different headsets she says that is sounds like a headset issue not an issue with the phone.
When I explained for the third time that I would agree if it happend with one headset but since it happens with all of the headsets it would support my arguement that it is an issue with the phone.
It was like talking to a wall. I wish I had an alternitive to HTC at this point, I love their design and have never had a problem with any of their other phones but this their lack of support is amazing.
I think its with all HTC phones. Happened with my Dash - Wing and now Tilt.
But I've never had anyone complain about hearing music on their end...I can just hear it on my headset for about 1 sec. I've also had my SMS tone play wile on a call and also my VM tone play while on a call and I've asked them if they heard that and they said no.
I also only use noise cancelling headsets.

I've never had a problem with any other handset, I've had a Qtek 9100, MDA, O2 Exec, Wing and a Dash.... crap I spent a lot on phones. The only one I've had problems with is the TyTNII.
Same problem here. And sometimes the speaker will very briefly go into speaker mode as I answer! Not good.
Hi everyone. I have had my Tilt for 4months now and it has given me a lot of joy. I have flashed and reflashed with no problems at all. I am currently using Schap's 4.31 Rom with 1.27.12.11 radio.
About a month ago i installed a new car stereo that has bluetooth connectivity with my phone - worked like a charm, paired very easily and generally appeared to be working with no probs.
Then i noticed that if i was in a bluetooth conversation and somebody else was calling (on call waiting), if i switched calls i could not hear anything, and if i ignored the second call, when the person on call waiting hang up, both conversations were terminated. I thought it was odd, but i just deactivated call waiting and thought, "let them try calling me later".
The other, a lot more serious problem, is that sometimes, randomly as far as i realised, the phone will go totally silent - incoming calls won't ring, and when i try to make a call, when i press "talk" then phone does not make that beep that it makes when an outgoing call is initiated. Should the person i call pick up i cannot hear them at all.
A soft reset takes care of this problem, but it has happened to me 3 times already, and i think it was after a bluetooth call.
Has anybody faced this problem before? I need to be available on the phone 24/7 due to my work and i really need to find a solution for this. Yesterday afternoon i took a nap for 45 minutes and had six missed calls that i never heard cause the phone never rang.
The phone is always on "ring" and at full volume.
Any ideas would be welcome.
Thanks
Alkis
Same issue
I'm assuming since I also am facing this same problem that it is not uncommon. It seems to me that it happens after a bluetooth device is turned off. Somehow it sets the volume on everything to mute. I thought only a soft reset would fix it until I discovered that it was just shutting off the volume. Still annoying, though.
Tilt problems with phone going silent
This problem has occurred with my phone every since upgrading to the WM 6.1 and it is related to a bluetooth device being hooked up. Often when someone calls the ringer will go from vibrate to on, but the volume turns all the way off. It will then cycle to off completely. The cycling occurs when a call comes in or when I hang up. I can stop this problem from happening by disconnecting the bluetooth head set. I have tried three different headsets and the problem occurs with all of them (Jawbone I, Jawbone II, and Plantronics) so I know it is not the brand of headset. HTC said to try a download of a screen dimmer problem, but have not done that yet. Anyone have any better advice?
did u guys ever find a solution to this?
its quite annoying missing calls because my phone decides to go silent for some reason
Same issue with GPS
I have the same issue, even when using software that accesses the GPS via bluetooth port. Muting is irritating, but at least voicemail catches messages. What really bothers me is that sometimes the mute is turned off and the volume up, especially when in a private meeting where we do not want interruptions

HTC Tytn II bluetooth causes silent setting
I too have had the issue where my phone will go into total silent mode after using my bluetooth stereo hands-free feature. It doen't happen after using my bluetooth headset though.
It happens pretty regular that after using the bluetooth hands-free of my JVC car stereo that when I take the phone elsewhere it is totally silent. no ringer, no alarm (Ptravel alarm is what I use), no audio if I make a call (or receive a call).
It also will cause the phone to be silent on subsequent calls on the bluetooth stereo hands-free: ie: I take a call, hang up and another call will come in and I can answer it but have no audio.
My Tytn II is running the HTC (AT&T) WM 6.1 upgrade. The only thing I have done is use the Advanced configuration manager and the Kaiser tweak to change a few settings for performance and visual enhancements.
I see others are having the same problems.....Has anyone else used the tweaks and maybe that is root of the problem?
Has anyone discovered a fix (really important). My only options are to soft reset every time I get out of the car or not use the JVC bluetooth capability (which is why I replaced the stock radio in the first place).
Thanks
Hi rrackman,
I'd advice for you to look at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438457
It's quite long, so better subscribe to it and wait for responses. Several people with Tilt's have the same problem. Myself I have a JVC NX-7000 and an unbranded Kaiser (HTC TyTN II). It works fine with WM6.0, but I have the same issues you mention with WM6.1. First advice while we're searching for the solution: downgrade to WM6.0...
Regards,
Nika.
Is there a solution to this problem?
Try WM6.0 ROM - check out the thread I mention in my sig.
Regards,
Nika.
I did indeed take a look at the thread you linked earlier. Sorry for making the quick post earlier, I should have mentioned that this is regarding the "unexplained volume drop to zero" symptom, not the NSI symptom. Fortunately I don't have the NSI problem, just the drop to zero problem.
Of course downgrading to 6.0 would be the key solution, was just hoping to find a way to avoid doing just that. My phone never had the problem prior to 6.1 and was running the exact same list of applications and settings.
Hello. I've been relentlessly searching everywhere for a solution to my plight.
My Diamond touch works fine for the first few incoming and outgoing calls but then all of a sudden there is no incoming or outgoing audio when I make or receive a call. I.E. the call connects but I can't hear the caller and they can't hear me. The phone still rings and caller display still works. Likewise I can still place a call in the normal way. Just no audio in either direction. Soft reset sometimes restores normal operation but sometimes a hard reset is required.
The phone was originally on UK Orange network but is now unlocked and running on UK O2.
I got to grips with flashing quickly enough and I have now tried upteen combinations of roms and radios but nothing seems to help.
Has anyone else had this problem ? Or better still managed to cure it ?
Any help or suggestions would be so so so appreciated.
Oh yeah just in case it's relevent.. The phone seems to work perfectly in every other way. wifi, bluetooth, 3G, gps etc. Battery life is a wee bit pants but I'm not too concerned about that.
Thanks in advance guys !

M8. I don't think you're on your own on this one. I have the same problem ...or similar. My phone pairs OK but drops the blue tooth connection usually on audio but quite often altogether. Re-pairing is a pain in the A$$. It's definitely a phone issue as I have the older qtek and a nokia that work with my kenwood system without a hitch but pair up the diamond and I'm pulling my hair out after 5 minutes.
I've tried the latest stable radio, setting pin code to 0000 & also turning off security but it still drops connection after an outgoing or incoming call.
Does anyone have a fix for this?
...and jetware 1.3 doesn't solve this either. Installed it the other day and pretty much the same ...audio is fine until a call is terminated and then it drops A2DP but sometimes stays connected on telephone. Other times both drop off!
bt stack
In my case it looks like the BT stack on the diamond is not compatible with the Kenwood DNX8220BT stack. I see quotes that HTC implemented their own stack for the Diamond so could someone put me out of my misery and tell me if it's possible to change the stack to something like that on the wizard as that works flawlessly with my Kenwood satnav?
ADD+
My phone does that weird thing too where I couldnt hear the other person on line. I have manage to found a quick fix for it tho.
Solution 1: During the call (when you notice you cant hear the other person), press the middle circle button (which will activate the screen if dimmed out), then press the speaker icon. This allows you to continue the conversation on speaker with the other person on line without having to soft/hard reset.
Solution 2 (works sometimes): During the call, reduce the volumn, wait a secnd or two, then raise it again.
Bt3030 - Shb6100/7100
Have the same problem with Philips shb7100 and shb6100. i also have tried the Jabra BT3030.
I used and test them on a Tyten and wizard no problem at all.

I have the exact same model (kenwood dnx8220bt and XDA ignito (diamond), same problem where everything is okay but when you go into the contacts menu and try to make a call, BT connection either drops or nothing happens when you try to make the call.... this is a joke.... how can my old HTC P3300 work with it without a problem and this newer Diamond flop like a fish...
any updates or news??
I've the same problem. No Sound after some call or others sounds play. When this happens and if I receive a call the others not listen my voice. This means that when audio disappear, speaker and also microphone not work, like the system can't comunicate with them. The volume control not resolve my problem. I've done HR and with nothing installed in my phone the problem come back again after few minutes. So it's not a problem of third part bad software, but htc orginal software or hardware problem.
Anyone solve it o have idea?
Thanks!
I join the list - having problems with my xcarlink which used to work with my P3300
Tried using A2DP Toggle which helped on the artemis but seems to have NO effect at all on Diamond
The Diamond does connect flawlessly to my jabra earpiece and my Sony ericsson bluetooth speaker

I have the same problem. Sent my HTC back twice for repair but still no solution. The first time they didn't found the problem, the second time they replaced the speaker.
What did they do with your phone to fix it?
According to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431826 it is a hardware issue. The phone needs to go back to the supplier as it is faulty.
What is the silver button on the original handsfree kit meant to do? when i have an incoming call it wont pick up so, so is there meant to be another function to it or something? thanks
i second that also
this key doesn't answer the incoming call
is there someone else has this problem ?
anyone actally used the handsfree kit?
The wired one? I use mine all the time, answers calls here, and a double press makes it dial last number..
hi, i'am also having the same issues.
the silver button does not pick up calls.
has anyone found a solution for this?
I have the same problem
I live at HK
I have been to the Service Center,
But denied it is the handfree fault but the rom bug..
I argued with them, then changed to a new handfree,
but the problem still there....
Hi everybody,
I'm new here and very grateful for all the brilliant solutions you guys come up with to all sorts of issues with x1.
I have the same problem with my hands-free: the button doesn't work and neither does the microphone. Until now, I've thought of it as a simple matter of replacing the hands-free kit, but now I see the suggestion that this is a Rom bug! Will anyone be able to elaborate a bit on this?
thanks and best regards,
Sune
Really not sure it is real or not that is a rom or software bug,
but sure quite a number of problem of people experienced such problem!
I hope SE not to put a death ear on this issue.
It is really annoying as I quite often used the handfree.
hello everyone
the same problem on my russian x1 handsfree. Have tried to fix it with some patches - no results. Then I've bought Nokia Xpress music handsfree, and it works perfectly (and radio works too).
update
VERY SAD, but it doesn't fix the problem. bad quality of X1 jack - thats the problem. Xpress key doesn't answer the incoming call periodically too, but handsfree itself working good all the time

Hi I'm Chris from Sri lanka,
Yes, I have the same issue! The handsfree seems to work when I remove it and re insert the jack during an incoming call, but not initially! It is very temeperamental and annoying. I also have a problem when I get an another call when I'm already on a call while using the handsfree. The current call goes to speaker phone and the party cannot hear wht I'm saying through my handsfree!
So I am forced to remove the handsfree and talk during such instances! Crazy this, especially since answering phone calls is one of the core functions of a cell phone! what's the point in having all the frills when answering a call is so tedious!
This is very disppointing, especially with such a high price tag to boot!
same case here. im really disappointed...
i guess that if i can when asus glaxy came out i will change mi xperia for that one... this phone is really "buggy"...
Same probleme here unfortunately.. I tried to remove all
additional programs related to dialing and volume,
switched to the new ROM, but no changes. Button on headset
does not work and microphone neither.
I also have same issue, both HK new stock ROM & cook rom also.

Hi I'm Chris from Sri lanka,
Yes, I have the same issue! The handsfree seems to work when I remove it and re insert the jack during an incoming call, but not initially! It is very temeperamental and annoying. I also have a problem when I get an another call when I'm already on a call while using the handsfree. The current call goes to speaker phone and the party cannot hear wht I'm saying through my handsfree!
So I am forced to remove the handsfree and talk during such instances! Crazy this, especially since answering phone calls is one of the core functions of a cell phone! what's the point in having all the frills when answering a call is so tedious!
This is very disppointing, especially with such a high price tag to boot!

Samething here, and the above works for me too (Remove and re insert), but SE really need to fix this for us.
I believe it's a hardware problem, bad 3.5mm jack!
My right earphone's volume has fallen to one tenth. I have it for less than a month. Good listening but bad manufacturing quality.
Personally I don't think it's bad hardware, I think it's bad firmware/rom.
Currently, with GENERIC UK ROM R2AA010, three presses of headset button dials last number, long press disconnects. Not tried incoming call yet.
I really need to be able to customize this buttons function, especially to activate Voice Command, so that I can make calls, play music etc, without the need for touching the phone. Only then, will I be able to make a button for the handlebars on my motorbike.
Want to use a fully wired system to save on battery power, rather than bluetooth. Also, in all the years of using bluetooth, I have yet to find a combination of handset and headset that work seamlessly.
So far, not impressed with the lack of functionality of this headset, but can see why it works like this. Essentially SE should have included Voice Command, then this hardware/software combination would have been shipped working effectively. I think it is merely a cost saving exercise and SE need to provide a patch and fix in their next rom release.
