ringer disappeared - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

All,
Not sure what happened, but all of a sudden when I get an incoming call there is no volume on the ringer. If I switch to vibrate it will vibrate when a call comes in. I went to Settings-Notifications and confirmed there is a ring tone selected and I can play a test of it. Is there some other hidden setting I am missing? FWIW I am also running Goodlink 4.9 although it hasn't in the past caused any problems. Thanks.

I have also got this problem. Seems very weird. I originally thought it was because the dir of the ringtone file had changed - which it had. But i re-assigned the ringtone to a default tone and still it does not work.
Must be a registry thing - but where to look?
Anyone have any ideas on this?

Yep I also have this problem. Did you guys figure it out in the end?
I've had the phone replaced but it ended up doing the same thing.

Upgraded BA WM2003 to WM5 and Speaker Out Ended.
I upgraded my Blue Angel device from Windows 2003 to Windows Mobile 5 and then I had no Volume on my device. My phone still works but I have to have headset paired up or directly connected to be able to use it since the speaker function is non-existent.
Please note this is for all applications not only the phone, so I have no reminders or anything that used to use the built in speaker.
Any ideas???
Recently I also just lost my Connection Settings..?
I can't figure that out since I haven't done anything to it recently to lose these settings, no I can’t connect to the Internet or even create a new connetion.
I have tried hard resting as well as soft resting to a point when everything worked, however this still doesn't fix the Connection Settings or the Volume. I think the Volume is directly related to the upgrade, so I might upgrade the ROM again to see if that fixes it.
Any other ideas.....?

When you tap the volume icon on the taskbar, do you see both sliders set to high?

Hi
I have exactly the same problem since several weeks. The TyTN II has been 3 times sent to the repair centre and the problem still exists! The device is completely useless if it's not playing the ringtones.

Hi all
It's very likely that's because you all have installed an external MP3 player (like Pocket Music). When you did so, the app registered .mp3 extensions as a PocketMusic extension.
When you receive a call, WM6 tries to open PocketMusic (or so) to play the ringtone, but can't because of compatibility reasons.
To have your ringtones back, you either uninstall your MP3 player, or unregister .mp3 extensions (to do that in PocketMusic, go in Menu -> Options -> file types and unselect .mp3).

Fixing Ringtones
I had this problem and worked out how to fix it.
Look at the following Reg Key (change midifile to mp3file for mp3 issues)
Delete any EventSoundHandlers already in place and add this Key.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\midifile\Shellex\EventSoundHandlers\{245F94CF-DD9C-46F9-B4C8-D2B14A877893}]
@="XME EventSound Player"
Problem fixed.

any ideas?????

Got working too but treble spikes
I got my Qtek 2020i to work with the HT820 headset both with calls and music but with the music the treble spikes.it can be a lil anoying especially with a song that uses drummer playing on the metal disc(not sure wat it called) I tried a mp3 192kbps and still u can hear it. any suggestions. I downloaded a cab file to get the music working is there any other cab or file i could try?
So, is there an update to this? i.e. Play / Skip Buttons?
I seem to have the same problem and wondered if anyone has sorted it yet?
Cheers
Just use TCPMP(www.corecodec.com, www.tcpmp.org) player and turn on Broadcom Button support in adv. options.
I am using my headphones with full button support.

Cool Installed it works like a dream mose of the time,
But do get some drops where the Audio descdides to stop going throught he HT820 and through the normall speakers?
Simply incerase file cache from Automatic to 2048Kb and your system will be much faster. Also, it will solve problem with incorrect sound routing(bluetooth sound transfer occupies anout 40% of cpu time sometimes, including MP3 decodning).
Sorry dumb question but where do I find that setting?
I can see Options > Settings > Select Page > Buffering > Normal BUffer Size is set to 2400KB already?
Cheers
Ok an Update now, I had 0.72 RC 1 installed so thought I'd go back a version to 0.71.
THe same settings are there and changed, Now if I get a call, answer with left button, put down with left button the audio gateway goes. the right hand side still works but no audio to the headphones, only way is to disconnect bluetooth connection and reconnect.
Very Strange. I wonder if we will ever get this to work as it should lol,

If you mean spikes as in distortion in the sound, that's most probably because your sound level is too high. Turn down the volume of your headset, and it'll sound fine. I experience this problem if I turn my headset up too high, it's a design flaw (in my humble opinion) of many bluetooth headset devices, but unfortunately it's quite common.

Tilt Goes Silent - I think bluetooth related

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.

ringtone problem

How come my ringtone on my tilt only plays for one sec and then stops. I cut it with audio manager but others do the same. Its on ring and vibe
can u give use more info like rom d wht type of mp3 ur using? there are lot of things that might be the issue. how long hs it ben doing this, is it just with ur cut mp3's. info we need info
Even I am facing a ringtone problem on my HTC touch. I am unable to make .mp3 files to work as ringtones.
try changing to Ring only mode.
I am having this same problem!! No matter what ringer is assigned, when I receive a call it plays for .5-1 second and stops. The vibrate works perfectly though.
My Tilt is using the April 29th version of Dutty's rom.
Has anyone found a solution?
i think i know why it happens, when i got a call from a private number that microsoft voice thing starts to say the number and caller, but because its private there was a big gap. I dont know how to turn off the speech for the caller but i think that should fix it
That's exactly what it is!!! if you disable "voice command" under the settings tab, the problem is fixed

Vibration alert doesn't stop and audio breaks after a2dp.

Just as the title states... ie: I get an sms or email alert and the vibe just keeps on going until I goto volume silence then I can reactivate the volume.
I use ring and vibrate together for all alerts.
Anyone else have feed back with this or a similar problem?
*edit*
So I have done some testing and would like if someone else who uses a bluetooth headset to listen to music could try using BT a few times turning it off and on (when on use the htc media player) and see if after receiving a text message or email if your audio fires properly and your vibe stops. I have not used the BT all day today and the vibe/ring has performed perfectly. Basically after using BT a soft reset is in order.
What apps are you using?
Are you using any of the phone profile software such as SPB Phone Suite, Phone Weaver, Phone Alarm or the like? I had this issue occur when using Phone Suite and it was resolved when i de-installed the software.
I had same problem. I got mail and the vibration didn't stop. I don't use any profile manager. But I had same problem with Cruise with Wm6.1.
No profile managers at all. I have had this happen once before with an asus p527.
I have since done a hard reset on my diamond, we'll see how it goes. I did the reset because initially I've done alot of playing around testing apps and hacks to see what works best, I have re installed the apps I know work and have done. very little tweaking... Fingers crossed.
@thebiker
Do you use Bluetooth Audio for music or voice calls?
I think I have narrowed the problem down to this for myself.
I use my jabra 320 to listen to music on my way to work, after disconnecting the problems begin, vibrate doesn't want to stop and the ring doesn't want to work. A quick soft reset and everything appears to be good until I use my BT Headset again. Are you able to see a similar trend as I am? As I mentioned already I had this issue with my Asus so maybe there is a problem in general with Microsoft's BT Stack when using it with a2dp and in general derails audio on the system. My thinking is the audio is actually what is stopping on me so the Vib doesn't have the audio to tell it when to stop.
Thoughts on this matter anyone?
Bump... added some info to the first post and modified topic slightly, to more acurately describe my newer findings.
If someone using BT can try what is in the first post... thank you.
I have the Jabra BT620s headset and have the same problem. I can listen music and when a call comes in I can answer it and people hear me.
When I disconnect the headset i don't get any sound. Need to do a soft reset to get sound back on my phone. So no rings or sounds untill a soft reset is performed.
Stupid bluetooth... Anyone with a fix?
I can't find anyway other then soft reset. If you look at the volume after disconnecting a headset it sets the volume to 0.
I also have this issue on a tilt running winmo 6.1 and Microsoft BT Stack. So I believe it is a MS Operating/BT Stack issue.
What rom are u guys using? i'll try to have a look and experiment with the 1.37 rom
Shipped ROM: 1.34.831.1 WWE
Date: 5/25/08
WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19588 (Build 19588.1.1.4)
Radio: 0.93.25.NS16
Protocol version: 52.24.25.08H
any news on this ?
I encounter this problem when receiving voice calls. No sound and neverending vibrate. Also, on several occasions the sound disappeared during the conversation. Only a soft reset could bring it back. The volume showed just good values, so it wasn't a spontanious mute.
I don't use a BT headset, never did. In fact BT isn't enabled at all. I did change the ringtype to ring and vibrate, perhaps thats the trigger. I changed back to default ringtone setting, lets see what happens.
I hope this will be solved quickly, it makes my Diamond a bit unusable as a phone...

Interesting results... I can so far state that so long as I reset after using BT Headset I don't experience this problem. There maybe more pointing to a bad audio driver in general that BT causes to crash immediately and potentially regular use like you have may also cause it to go loopy, might be a specific app and the way it interfaces with the audio api.

The only app I installed afterward is TomTom Nav6. But I remember the problem happend before installing this app as well. I made several hard resets but no change. Perhaps I try once more, don't change any setting and keep it clean for some days.
The same problem here with ROM ITA.

Nop - got the problem before installing any additional software.
I confirm that I also have the problem after using my BT stereo headset.
SR solves the problem ... until I use my BT headset again

So you have no ringtone anymore ? And after a soft reset ?
no ringtone no sms tone, soft reset, press volume key, resolves it.

[Q] Media Panel Calls my contacts !!!!

Hello Experts,
I have a strange porblem with my X1. Whenever I use the media panel to listen to music (using my headset provided with the set)..after a few mins, the last number either dialled, received or missed, starts getting dialled automatically !!!
I tried by clearing my call list ,and using the media panel,after a few mins, it still beeps (maybe trying to find the numbers in the call list) but finds no number to call so the music continues.
Soft Reset, Hard Reset, Reinstalling the original firmware, nothing worked !!
and also, when calling using the headset , the line gets disconnected after a 2 or 3 minutes !!!
please help
Nobody seems to know '!!!

Hmm, the Media Panel is a beta? It came preinstalled with every new Xperia so it is definitely no beta.
On several occasions my Xperia dialed numers in my address book too and at first I also thought that this behaviour is somehow related to the Media Xperience Panel. But then I found out that it always dialed the last number I had called. I did some thinking and came to the result that the reason for this behaviour hast to be the button on the microphone of the headset. Since then I have paid attention not to touch it anymore and so far my phone has not called anymore contacts. I am almost certain touching the button on the microphone of the headset accidentially started those calls.
