Audio suddenly died - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I just started configuring my new Kaiser with an installed 6.1 ROM, and was having fun listening to music off my SDHC card. Everything seemed to be working great until I tried to make a phone call - no audio. Then, a friend tried calling and left a voicemail. I didn't even hear the ring! When I went back to look at the sound settings there's no signs that anything is wrong. I even turned on screen taps, but I can't hear them or music, rings, or the speaker. There's suddenly no audio! Any guesses what's going on?

Do you have a radio version that is compatible with your ROM?

1.70.0liNex
25.65.30.04W
1.60.00.00
I'm using the above. What radio rom should I be using and where should I get it?

Are you using the at&t rom or a cooked one from this site. Normally those with the radio problem don't talk about having sound at all. It could be that if you flashed a cooked rom you didn't get a radio that your phone likes.

If the ROM being used is the new ATT 6.1 and WOW SRS is installed, this will cause no audio at all. I had this issue and had to uninstall SRS because of the compatibility issue

I did grab it on this site, and it was a bundled radio rom with the release. I got it a couple months ago but I don't remember which one it was (besides it being the seemingly most popular ROM).

BTW, I have an AT&T Tilt also. Any recommendations on what I should use?

helle axebox;
i've had the same problem like you. Sound is normal, then an incomming or outgoing phonecall and there is no more sound anywhere.
I installed an other radio software, Kaiser 1.71.09.01 see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393182
now everything is fine.
good luck

People cannot hear me... solution!

From previous thread started by me:
"During calls there comes a moment that people are complaining that they cannot hear me. When i move the jog dial upwards (hence increasing volume) they say that they can hear me ok. I have not experienced this using the bluetooth headset. Maybe a hardware problem??By the way i used 5 different radios and upgraded also to 6.1."
Well here is what i did. I sent the phone to htc hellas where they replaced the mic and the earphone. Problem not solved. Then sent it to htc uk where they replaced the speaker and the main board.Problem not solved.
Suddenly today while using the bluetooth headset i observed on the phone a sudden drop on the volume indicator while speaking (different indicator from the one while not speaking). Most probably a software error (windows mobile)?
So do u think there is any registry change, tweak which can keep the indicator constant on a certain level??
By the way i have also changed a lot of roms and problem remains.
Thanks
You have missed one important factor. THE RADIO!! Some ROM/RADIO combos dont work correctly. The camera and everything else will work, but sometimes when you talk to people they cant hear you and its got a static sound. I experienced this with certain rom/radio combinations, as soon as I changed the radio though, never had the problem.
So whats the radio you recommend for low battery consumption and compatible with duttys latest rom? By the way no static sound exists while people cannot hear me. Also i almost tried most of the radios but most of the times with duttys roms.
Thanks a lot

Well Dutty's "latest ROM" would be the (June 7th)Diamond v1, another would be (March 24th)Diamond BETA, (April 29yh)Dutty's Hybrid. I am not sure which one you are using. What radio's were you using? The 1.65.xx radios on Dutty's Hybrid?
Yes i am using the latest diamond rom of duttys along the 1.65.16.25 radio.
Any better radio?
try the one in my sig ONLY if ur security unlocked.
anyone still with this problem or someone found a solution for it?

I cant find an option to extend the time on the phone before going to voicemail.I have had this problem since upgrading to 6.1. Tried every damn method with no luck... its driving me insane! Is anyone else having this problem?
2nd problem!
Since upgrading my Tytn to 6.1 with different roms my ringtones no longer works. when i go to phone setting and trying to select a ringtone a msg appear "this ring tone file is corrupted or unavailable"try reseting and using different roms with hard reset with no luck!
Any suggestion or how to resolve my issues ?
thanks in advance

I also have the audio problem. It looks like it is missing some basic codecs . does anyone have a link for the standard codec for win mo 6.1
Similar issue with stock ROM
I've got the stock AT&T 6.1 ROM and I get the same issue, but not every time. It seems to happen to some callers, but not others, and I'm not sure it happens to the same callers all the time. When it happened this morning I heard one short ring, and the missed call icon lit up. The caller said it rang 5 times on her end. I was wondering if it had something to do with my forwarding settings with Youmail, but I haven't got around to checking.

Why does microphone stop working then repairs itself?

My Vario III suddenly stops recording sound properly via the built in
microphone. If I make a call when this is happening the other person cannot hear me or sound quality is very poor and if I use htc voice-recorder the sound seems very far away with occasional loud distortion. If I plug in my external headphones and use that mic the sound is absolutely fine.
This problem seems to just appear and then can just go. A soft reset makes no difference. A hard reset or flashing the radio or rom has, so far, always solved the problem - until it happens again which could be in a few hours, days or even weeks.
I can't link the problem to any particular software that runs.
I've tried flashing several different radios. I still get exactly the same problem. My local repairer says it won't be the mic as they either break or they work - not coming and going as I have.
Has anyone any suggestions for what I could try to fix this? Suspect software? Should I just keeping working my way through new radio roms? Do you think it is actually the mic in the phone?
I can't find quite this problem described anywhere else so your help would be very much appreciated. Many thanks.

Then go see somewhere else, they're not reliable...
A bad contact causing an intermittent failure is one of the most common problems in electronic devices...
I'm having the exact same problem on my Vodafone V1615. Funny thing is, my radio ROM was the same as yours when the problems began. I waited till the Vodafone V1615 WM 6.1 ROM update, and installed it. It worked, for a few weeks, and then the problem returned. Vodafone does not want to fix it for me
Hello tha_bulldog
When your mic stops working have you found a reliable way to get it working again?
Long shot but does this thread help??? The problem was the way the user holds the phone, covering the mic with their hand.

No Sound in Call (Intermitant)

Occasionally I have a problem where when making or receiving calls I pick up and there is no sound. If I Soft Reset I can make the call and it works fine. It's been starting to happen more often recently, and is really bugging me. It happens both when I'm using the phone speaker, and my headset.
what rom are you using? I have noticed the same thing the last couple of days since upgrading to L26 M2D v1
ah, here it is the same thread.
I use WM 6.1 htc version
Is there no bugfix?
Have you tried flashing a new radio?

data at info:
ROM: 3.28.407.0 GER
funkempfänger (i guess it's the radio): 1.65.16.25
protocoll: 25.83.40.02H
it was updated with the new htc 6.1 version what i've heard.
or can i downgrade it to a version that is working fine? when yes, where is the file to do so..
Right now I'm using Radio 1.58.16.27, I'll try another one, which do you recommend?
I was using 1.65.29.22, switched to 1.65.24.36 (I was using this with L26 diamond V12 with no issues)
had the same issue today.
hm, looks like a big upcoming problem for everyone...

Old thread but still, I've been experiencing this issue on the Hyperdragon series of ROMs from late October. Also had this problem in the past on some of Dutty's roms. The latest Raphael version (15/11/2008) has not exhibited this problem in 4 days. Only difference I can see is a slightly newer version of MSVC (1.6.19965).
Cheers.

I am getting the same problem intermittently, with a soft reset as the solution.
I am running a bone stock AT$T rom,recently upgraded to 6.1. It started happening post upgrade.
An upgrade problem?
same here... im playing around with different radios, it has to be a radio issue imo
I would just love to have this issue solved. It's not new whatch here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383539

My phone rings and notifies just fine when Texts,emails and calls come in. It answers just fine, but there is no sound. Then when I try to call people back, there is no dial sound and the call appears to not go through, until I do a soft reset, then all is back to normal.....................for a while.......................
I'm having this issue also. The other party can hear me when I answer, but I can't hear anything after the initial incoming-call ringing. A power-cycle restores normal operation but only for a while.
ROM: 3.28.405.0 WWE, 05/02/2008
Radio: 1.71.09.01
Protocol: 25.75.40.02.eMo
I'm in same boat as everyone else here.
Sometimes my phones rings, but when I answer I have no sound and other party can't hear me. Other times, my phone doesn't ring and all audio is muted (despite volume on). Soft reset is the only thing that works for me.
I gotta say this is really pissing me off. I'm missing lots of important calls because my phone doesn't ring when it should, or if I'm lucky it rings but has no audio so I have to soft-reset and wait 5 minutes for my phone to reboot & re-establish signal all whilst my clients are trying repeatedly to call me.
I'm willing to try other radios, but no one seems to have any working suggestions.
Thought maybe it was software, since I don't remember this happening after my initial WM6.1 upgrade. Uninstalling S2U2 didn't work (happened again today). Just uninstalled Voice Command, too, but haven't tested yet. VC's been flaky since upgrading to 6.1, working sometimes, failing to announce calls other times, plus occasional VC crashes at boot claiming "out of memory" which is blatantly untrue.
Just out of curiousity, is everyone with this problem using Voice Command, or just some of us?
Think I might have to go back to WM 6.0 since 6.1 didn't solve my Bluetooth issues plus screwed up Destinator...oh well. Schap's WM6 4.31 was best ROM anyway.
Anyone having any luck with this problem?
Like I said, I was running AT$T WM6 with no issues. The I updated to WM6.1 and started having these call issues.
Last week I flashed to HD III still no joy. SJ says that he is running the same radio as me, 1.65.24.36 with no problems.
Is it " my " phone? Microsuck 6.1 ? The radio ? Has anyone solved this with a new radio flash ?
I run a business on this phone and it is getting really frustrating, I don't want to go back to 6.0 just so I can get my phone calls?
I'm not just whining, looking for sucess stories.
Hi, havent been here in a while but i thought i'd add to the list. I have recently flashed HD3 (one of the early november editions) and it was without problems until friday when i dropped my fone. Ever since then i have had the intermittent sound in call which is only fixed by a soft reset (exactly the same as denco7). I haven't changed the radio since dutty's 1st diamond rom (a while ago) as i haven't had any problems but now im thinking about it.
Current setup (from device info):
ROM version: HD_III_Jade WWE
ROM date: 09/30/08
Radio version: 1.65.24.36
Protocol version: 25.94.40.06H
Not using MSVC
Recently flashed to HD III Blackstone hoping this might work but still having the problem.
I also flashed radios 1.65.24.36 and 1.70.18.02
and now I am running 1.70.19.09....... and it is still happening. It has got to be something in WM 6.1. Cannot be a software conflict, because it was happening when I was running bone stock AT$T 6.1 upgrade with no software add ons.
Again, I would hate to think that I have to downgrade to 6.0 just to get my phone calls.
Damn WM6.1 sound!
Well, I thought I'd let everyone know that I've uninstalled all my favorite apps from my Kaiser. No MSVC, no S2U2, occasional hands-free Bluetooth, and no A2DP. In that time, I've had only 2 incidents of no sound for the last 3 weeks--much better than no sound every few days or even several times a day. Don't know that the apps have anything to do with it since denco7 had same problem on an unadulterated AT&T ROM.
The big question is why do we all have the same sound problem but most WM6.1 Kaiser users do not (if everyone did I'm sure there would be a lot more *****ing). If we could reproduce it at will, we'd at least have something to focus on. Not knowing that, I'll have to guess and say that I suspect one or more of the following:
WM6.1 and/or the 1.65+ radios required for WM6.1 introduced some sound bug (deadlock, dereferenced pointer, etc.). The more apps that interact with sound and/or the radio, the more likely the bug will be triggered. But even if this is true, why does it happen to us but not to others?
The bug exists only in a particular base ROM source used by the ROM cookers. Still, should be affecting more people.
Maybe people who customize their phones are more likely to reset and clear any conditions that lead to no sound? Doesn't seem likely, but hey...
The problem exists only in specific Kaiser versions, perhaps even in conjunction with only specific WM6.1 builds and/or radios. I think there's been 5+ different hardware versions of the Kaiser line, but I can't find where I read this or how to tell what version your Kaiser is.
Bluetooth affecting sound? Got absolutely nothing to back this up other than WM6.1 supposedly fixed a lot of Bluetooth problems and during the time of my frequent lockups, I was using A2DP to stream an audiobook to my car's Parrot MK6000. Finished the audiobook & quit traveling so much, so I rarely used Bluetooth during the last few weeks when I've had only 2 no sound incidents. BTW, I upgraded to WM6.1 specifically because of the Bluetooth fixes, hoping they fixed the 100% CPU usage after finishing a hands-free call and fixed the A2DP dropping after calls. WM6.1 didn't fix either, so what did they do? Maybe their "fixes" just introduced new problems?
Possible dead zone f'ing up the radio and consequently sound? I offer this only because when I was working in a particular dead zone I had frequent sound problems. For some reason, my phone has problems reconnecting after leaving this dead zone and I have to reboot. Occasionally it would reconnect without rebooting, but I never correlated this to no sound. However, I haven't been there in weeks, and my problems with sound decreased (although I also uninstalled apps & quit using Bluetooth as much). Went there last Friday, and while I was there I found I had no Windows sounds. Could dead zones or even just temporary signal loss be f'ing up the radio and consequently the sound?
These are all just guesses--I'm just throwing out some possibilities so we can find something in common between us. However, I gotta say that if I don't find a solution soon, I'm going to switch back to WM6. Threaded messages are nice, but they're not worth this no sound headache.
BTW, I'm using:
AT&T Tilt (purchased within a month of initial release)
ROMeOS v4.21.1 (OS v5.2.20273, AKU 1.3.3)

Tilt Phone Not Riging

Yesterday, I flashed with the John's Kaisher Rom with the build 21820 Full for the first time.
But, The Phone stopped ringing and even in the configuration, it does not play a sounds. But I am able to make and receive calls, put the calls in the speaker phone. Everything is Perfect.
Any Ideas?
What did search tell you was the problem? Better yet, when you were reading about how to flash your phone, what warnings were you given about this very problem?
Well, I did a search and thought that the radio might be the problem. But, I am able to make the calls and receive the calls, speaker phone works fine.. camera works fine.. the only problem is with the ringer... So I just thought that it may be something to do with the settings?
Still any ideas?
I would try another radio or ask in the roms thread.
