I really had a bad day (past 2-3 days actually) my kaiser has lost sound, cant hear anything, no calls, no music, no system "bleeps", I did hard-reset, flashed diffrent rom, diffrent radio w/e
so its dead, well sound is...dead....
sux
but on the bright side, its a company phone
and since i need my phone, I got a new one.....company paid
got a touch cruise, great phone btw
wish my kaiser could have waited to fail untill diamond was out....
but, maybe someone have a bright idea on how to fix the sound?
cheers
Can't think of anything else; all the things i was going to suggest you have already tried maybe someone with a little more experience than me might be able to help.
Good luck though.

It may be a stupid question, but still ...
Did you installed SRS WOW HD?
I lost sound when I installed this program.
Uninstalled it, rebooted, everything back to normal.

errrm, no, I have had the radio for a long time, and I reflashed the stock rom with default radio to check..
I flashed the new radio AFTER I got the problem, I have used same radio for 4-5 months with no issues at all.

No, if you read my post you would see that I have done hard-reset and flashed new rom (stock) after I started to have this problem, and I still have it
Sameproblem
Hi, I've got the same problem here.
I flash to NoThrills Dutch (WM6.1) about a month ago..
Everything worked fine.
No problems at all
At one moment (yesterday) my phone rang. I pressed the green butten. The call was accepted but no sound. I hungup. Called the person back, no sound.
After that happend all sound was lost (speaker, windows media, coreplayer, etc, etc)
Then I performed a softreset. sound was working again. I called someone. Everything was ok. Then I hungup. and the sound was gone again.
So I performed a Hard reset.
Sound was OK till I accepted a call.. and the problem started all over again.
Then I performed a Radio ROM flash. I've tried the following versions:
KAIS_Radinly_1.27.12.11_CustomRUU
KAIS_Radinly_1.64.08.21_CustomRUU < This was my default radio after nothrills update.
POLAR_Radinly_1.58.21.23_CustomRUU.
This didn't solve the problem.
Any suggestions?
Keep in mind that before the problem occured I didn't perform any (rom)updates nor have I installed any software lately.
I perform a softreset every 2 days normally.

I also have the same problem and have been experiencing it on a number of rom/radio combinations. I have now flashed back to stock bootloader/rom/radio to see if it happens again - it did happen when I was just on stock rom/radion but using hard-spl.
There seems to be a few people now with this problem Unfortunately nobody of any particular knowledge to help fix it. Lots of people are making noises about incompatible radios but I know for a fact that I have been using compatible radios and still getting the problem. If it does it again now it will go back to HTC, but at a bit of a loss as to what is going on.
Yep, happened again.... hard resetting now again to see if happens on 'bare' device!

Yesterday I've flashed the nothrills rom twice. First time no luck. the second time everything functioned OK...
I hope it will stay working this time. If not it's back to HTC with the phone..
I am having the same issue starting 2-3 weeks ago. I am also having trouble with all phone functionality in general. The SMS, Phone call, internet. They all work intermittently. Sometimes it work but most of time it doesn't work. Now I am so frustrated that I am planning to take the phone back to vodafone to see whether they can replace mine.
Who here has had the issue that is using MSVC or S2U2, or both?
Hey everyone, watch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392606
for a similar discussion.
I think it's going to end up being S2U2.
H
It happened to me on the ATT Death Beta and I do not use S2U2...
Reverted back to L26 V4 Vanilla and all is well again...
I've tried most every ROM available on XDA with most every radio in the last 6 weeks (I used the compatible ones). I even went back to AT&T 6.0 ROM/radio. No luck. Unfortunately I probably can't return it to HTC as I bought my Tilt on ebay and unlocked it to use with T-Mobile... I don't use S2U2 and actually have very vague idea what it is.
I am seeing this on my stock AT&T ROM and Radio, but I am hard spl'd. This also popped up on me about 2 - 3 weeks ago and I can't shake it no matter what ROM I try, even stock.
It seems today I am good but I am not running anything on here - no HTC Home, no MS VC, no S2U2.
I am going to put MS VC on first and go ahead through the weekend to see what makes me break.
Not good news that people WITHOUT S2U2 are seeing this exact problem. I was hoping that was it.
Just to confirm, we have users that:
1.) Do NOT use S2U2
2.) Do NOT use MS VC
3.) DO have the problem where the phone will suddenly stop making sounds. Calling people, they cannot hear you, you cannot hear them. Only a soft reset helps and only then for a short while.
Can someone confirm they meet all of these criteria? If not, do we have people that hit 2 out of 3?

Hi,
I got a TYTN 2 in Singapore recently. It worked fine for a few days, but now it is very sluggish in its response and also hangs frequently.
Any Tips/ Tricks/ Advice anyone?
Also my GPS doesnt seem to work either. I tried a program called MapKing that came with the CD and some other stuff from sites. Nothing is able to detect the GPS, setting is at COM4, 57600
Thanks in advance

My Tilt is having the same problem: it wasn't sluggish, but was hanging a few times a week, so I went ahead and flashed the HTC ROM. Almost immediately, it seemed more sluggish than it had before, and still hangs a few times a week (sometimes I actually have to pop out the battery to even restart it).
I'm sure that's a very vague description, so I'd be happy to provide any further information that might help.
Thanks!

Hey, to reset, i never popped the battery, i just removed the sim card slot lock, and it would turn off completely. Dont know tho, might be dangerous. Would you tell me which rom are you using? Is it Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.02BigStorage_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe ? I am thinking of using this one now.

Mine encounter lag every now and then. especially evident when using opera to surf. Screen will just freeze and have to wait a few seconds before I can do anything.

I've never tried to reset by unlocking the sim card - can anyone confirm that that's a safe, easier way to reset? Either way, I'd rather not have to reset at all.
Anyway, I'm using the ROM with the filename: "RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe"
I don't know much about ROMs, and that's the only one I found easily in the forums. Maybe it's a bad ROM, which would explain performance poorer than that of the original Tilt ROM. Can anyone recommend a better ROM?
Fixed?
Just to catch up here:
I've been using dutty's ROMs for a few weeks, and the device is much more responsive. I still have occassional hangs, but I can usually soft reset - maybe once every week or two I get a hard hang that requires me to remove the battery.
Currently using: Dutty's NewBuild Rom N0.6 +NETCF 3.5 AT&T.zip
Awesome ROM!
i have the same hanging as described above ... screen doesn't react. effects typing on the keyboard also ... i hope this can be fixed by new roms or by some fix. I am trying to figure out what is causing this since it doesnt happen all the time. say when i am playing solitaire for an hour it runs great, when typing an email it gets bad again...
anyone had any similar experiences ?
update: going to try dutty's rom as suggested above will see how it goes
ok, so after a few days with dutty's rom no.6 my device seems fine with exactly the same programs installed. my guess is either it was caused due to using an at&t rom including the radio on a kaiser or some problem with the custel 2.0 rom (and probably a few others).
hope this helps someone ...
Hi all!
I just bought this wonderful phone.
But I have a huge problem. As soon as I have spooken on the phone i need to restart it if I want any type of sound on it again.
First night it worked ok, I set an alarm and so I could wake up and get to work.
But I woke up, feeling the phone vibrating endless.
I saw that a co-worker tried to call me and I answered but didn't hear anything.
I did a reboot of the phone and called him up.
Phone details:
ROM-version: 1.37.413.3 SVE
ROM-date: 06/19/08
Radioversion: 1.00.25.03
Protocol: 52.26a.25.09H
Should I return the phone for exchange or is this something that could be fixed with an update?
I tried to browse throuh this part of the forum but I didn't find anything that was like my problem. Execpt for the vibrating error. (I have turned vibrating off now).
problem is still here.. anyone?
I had the same after playing a mp3 on maximum volume with mediaplayer.
I had to do a soft reset to get any sound again.
Now, with the volume a very little bit below the maximum, it's fine again.

But when it is close to empty the problems seems to escalade..

Still have the same problem.
Am I alone with this? Should I return it to the store that I bought it from?
Two questions:
Do you have the stock ROM?
Does the problem persist after a hard reset?
Yess I got the same problem here.
From the beginning.
As i got the phone out of the box it worked fine.
But over time It mutes it self and nou sound comes from it.
when I restart.
Its A go ant it works fine. I make one out going phone call.
Still fine.
I get an other one to call me, and the phone mutes ,.,. I answer the phone and it vibrates just once and stuts off the screen.
silence. but i am connected.
when i end the call. there is nothing that will play or make a sound.
after a restart everything works fine again,.,. for a while.
Ive tried.
Alll the different radio versions available on here
A dozen of roms, elite 1,2,3 and lots of others. the problem seems not to dissapear
Can anyone help me out here.
Is an hardware problem, I think.
I got the same problem with one of mine Touch XL.
I used my warranty and HTC sent me another.
Bummer,.,.
But thank you for replie !!
I will contact my provider asap.
Still on it.
downgraded the ratio to the 03 version.
Still no luck.
My Kaiser has been acting up since today morning.
The buttons/keyboard wont work and the voice recording program will start automatically and create files for every 4-8 seconds back to back.
I'm running Dutty's Dual touch ROM.
I reinstalled it and it worked perfectly fine for few hours until when i started txt messaging again....
any suggestions

Are you performing a hard reset after the rom installation?
Also what applications have you installed?
Next time post this in the thread where the rom is, try to stick to forum rules
Also what do you mean your keyboard is broken? Is it simply not functioning at all or are you typing a sentence and " it cmes out lke tis"
oops thanks, I'll post it in that thread. Basically I've been using it for good 5 months and no other applications have been installed.
Keyboard is not broken...the send/end/email/windows start buttons wont work...only the touch screen works.
and yes i hard reset it after the installation
seems like the problem is not with custom rom/firmware and its with the phone in general.
I'm now running stock firmware and the butons still dont work and it acts weird as soon as i turn on (example - goes to phone mode and dials EDFC, and then opens voice recording and starts recording small clips for every 4-6 seconds until i bring it complete stop)

Sounds like one of your buttons is stuck. Maybe try dusting the button area with canister air duster? Hope you don't have to do defective exchange, but that might be in the cards.

Might have to take it into a cell repair store...the drawback is i bought it off a local user, i will give HTC a call.

If i read you correctly, reinstalling the OS fixed it temporarily right? Maybe you got a corrupted file download and should redownload it again? It seems odd to me that the buttons would work short term after a reinstall.
Also , you can try other roms aside from Dutty's ( while his certainly is nice ) there are many alternatives. Pick one that has the radio included just to make sure you dont have some sort of firmware corruption. Also update Hard-SPL to the newest here.
Just a few things you could try

Yea I tried that too, but now it just wouldn't work...I formatted the memory car but i couldn't format the device, i called HTC and they asked me to send it in and they will take a look at it and said will fix it. I have to return everything back to stock and see how it goes.
Thanks guys
hello xda, ive posted a previous msg about this issue b4, along with others who have the same problem. ive done searches on here and have found that the issues have to do with some version of OPERA. my issue on the other hand is i dont use opera i use SKYFIRE. Does Skyfire use some sort of OPERA? ok now to my issue, (back when i first got my tilt, i had att oem rom 6.1) i now have duttys 6.1. after about a week after i first got the phone, ive been having problems with the phone notifying me of a new msg after about 5-6 sms. ive also noticed that when it fails to notify me, the alarm fails to sound as well. only after a soft reset does it fix its self, until another 5-6 msgs. ive also done the enable/disable threaded msg cab and it doesnt work, both cabs try to disable it. the programs that are installed are. A_C S2U2, bejeweled 2, boz quick menu, s2u2c, phm reg edit, skyfire browser, spb backup, and tilt keyboard fix for cooked roms. <-THESE ARE ONES IVE ADDED, if you need to know all thats one there that was cooked in, please pm me. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME. im gettin tired of this issue. att no longer carrys the phone for a insurance claim and im not sending it to HTC and being without a phone. im starting to think its more of a hardware issue than a software issue, if flashing it doesnt solve the problem. Thanx in advanced and sorry for such a long post. also b4 anyone says anything, everything is still checked to sound and vibrate under notifications and sounds.
John
One option you could try is to disable then re-enable the sounds.
Are you sure theat the phone is not temporarily muting the sounds. You could try manually switching the sound off on the volume icon next to the top right X and then re-enabling it.
Have you tried the hard reset?
That will determin if it's hardware or not.
to gilligan8
yes i have done the hard reset several times and it also does it with every rom i flash to the phone
to Elwyn M3100
thanks for the fast reply. no i havent switched the phone volumn to off and then back on. next time it messes up i will do that be i soft reset. if it is muting its self what could this mean the issue is?
But it doesn't do it till you flash it with a rom?
not a flashed rom issue
I have had this problem from about a week after getting my phone. I had this issue with the att oem 6.1 rom after I noticed the problem I contactecd att for a replacement, only to find that they have disscontinued it. id had to trade in the phone for something diff, cuz I love everything about this phone except my sms issuse. trust me I've searched and searched hard about how to fix this and have had quite a few good solutions, but nothin seems to work. I believe this is a hardware issue and not software. I just hope someone has the same issue that I do and nows how to fix it. thank you all for ur help
Being a computer guy this really doesn't sound like hardware... why would a hardware failure be so consistent? 5-6 times then soft start brings it back.
i do believe it is hardware related because i still have the problem even when i reflash to a new diff rom. after i receive anywhere from 5 to 6 msgs it then fails to sound on the following msg. the only way i can get it to resound is to perform a soft reset.
I had exactly the same problem and realised it was just the radio needed changing.
what radio are u running? i have 1.65.14.06 i also had this same issue with the stock att rom and radio
First off, THANK YOU XDA AND ALL WHO HELP THE CAUSE!!!
I spent most of yesterday and part of today trying some newer roms and cabs. Now it seems I have no audio, and here are the things I have done...
I tried different file types in different players, different roms with matching radios and different radios, and even put it back to the way I had it and still no sound.
Read On To Hear My Sob Story, or just post a helpful suggestion.
I feel really noob though I have done much with my tilt and flashed well over 100 times. My first tilt gave me a several issues that I couldn't seem to fix and my solution was to buy another one which I got a great deal on. So now this is the second tilt I am having problems with and I am hoping you guys can help.
OK so... I spent a few hours troubleshooting the problem before I made that first post. I decided to make a few more attempts to fix the issue of no sound and finally got it to work. The solution, Alex.v52.ATT.162.UltraClean.ROM, I flashed this rom and started loading my cabs and the sound came pouring out the speakers no problem. And just to point it out, I tried the Alex.v52.ATT.162.Lite.ROM and it did not solve the problem.
Moved as not ROM development.
I too am experiencing this problem with my tilt. It worked great for months using hyperdragon's wm6.1 rom. Well i stopped using the phone for a month or two, and switched carriers, and it said my sim was locked? So i unlocked the phone, and now the speaker doesn't work most of the time. It will work up until i make a phone call then stop working. Sometimes a reset will make the phone work, but it seems the problem has gotten worse after i tried to flash a few new roms on there
i think i fixed my problem as well. I think when i went to unlock the phone, i flashed an old hard spl on there. After flashing an updated spl (3.56) and upgrading the radio while i was at it, the sound appears to be working again on my phone. I flashed it with then new phxIII rom, 1.71 radio.
