Hello , i just unloked my phone and flash it with a wm6.5 rom but now i cant hear speaker or microphone when making a call , also inoticed that camera doesnt works either and im trying to play a son on media player and cant hear anything .
i realized it was the software so i flash a new one and still the same issues .
you probably need to flash a different radio. Check the signatures of people that are also using your ROM and see what their radio is. That's usually your best bet.
radio
i just uploaded the latest radio as you told me and everything is working ok , its just that im upgrading from 8125 and didnt used that kind of stuff, but now all roms are working ok with this radio , tnx.

Glad you got your phone sorted out, but no sound after a flash is something that has been discussed a thousand times here and could have been solved with a very simple search instead of starting yet another redundant thread on the issue. People will get irritated at new people constantly starting new threads.
Again, glad your got your issue sorted but in the future, please search first.
ok
i know , but its hard to think you damaged your new toy so you just look for answers asap without seeing that you have the answer in just in front of your eyes.

Thats why you need to fully understand what you are about to do, which means knowing what the common problems are and if you can fix them.

Hi everyone! great info on this site. been lookin around for a few hours now. Ive had my Qtek9090 for almost a year now. Trying to get a grip on this whole UPGRADING the ROMs idea. which brings me to my question.
I am a firm beliver of the whole "if it aint broke, dont fix it" saying... however i would like to upgrade my PDA for legitament reasons...
I am not interested in going to MOBILE 5. from what i have gathered it has conflicts with TOMTOM NAV 5 (which i use everyday) and other conflicts that convince me otherwise.
However, my PDA does hang randomly causing me to "soft reset" and sometimes when i call people they cannot hear me but i can hear them..
I am just curious as to which upgrades specifically i need to rid of said problems.. (If the upgrades fix other "bugs" that doesnt hurt either.. but i dont want to open the door to more problems..)
Thanks in advance everyone.
P.S. - how do i get my profile to allow me to choose qtek9090 and rom dates from the drop down boxes? i added the correct info to signature box, due to the fact that i could not add it initally.
I have to say that running TomTom5 on WM5 i've had no problems since TomTom released a 5.2 patch.
The reason I went for WM5 was very simular to the problems you are having, random lockups and sometimes if I answered a call I could hear someone but they couldnt hear me. Since going to WM5 I haven't had any problems with these two issues. The only thing that WM5 has that bugs me is the slow keyboard, which a simple overclocking can fix (which Blue Angels are designed to do)
Do you know what ROM you are on at the moment? If you goto 'Start -> Settings -> Device Information' then you can get all the versions, copy them here and I guess peeps will be able to tell you what can be upgraded.
Duh! Signature... :roll:
hehe
LOL @ signature! agagag. hmm im actually scared of going to wm5. but huh who knows.. i would really rather avoid it tho... How is that new patch for tomtom? what does it fix? thanks for the quick answer.
radio rom
You might try updating your radio rom to 1.15
Greetings vastloper
Well before the patch I couldn't even install TomTom5! :lol:
The trick is to download the update BEFORE trying to install TomTom5. If you unzip the update package (WinRAR does it) then insert your TomTom installation CD without autorun, then in the folder you unziped run the "setup.exe" program. Hay presto it all works.
It's even simpler then I make it sound.
And yeah, Radio Upgrade if nothing else should fix a couple of problems. I think you have to do a hard reset anyway for the radio update, but if your BA keeps locking up I'd make sure you do one.
thanks for the info
thanks for the info guys... yea i did something stupid last night. i tried to do that VGA hack, and it ended up not working and screwing up my file explorer? any ideas on how to remove it? ive been messin with it and i got tot he point where its "GOOD AS IS" and i deleted the files.. whats teh file called so i can look in the FTP downloads for the 1.15 RADIO UPDATE.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Radio_1.15_Upgrade
Not only do you get the file, but full instructions on how to install it. :wink:
On the same page is a link to the old versions, so if for somereason you don't like the 1.15 Radio ROM you can just downgrade again. In fact the same goes for WM5.
thanks
hey thanks alot bro. Ill give the upgrade a shot.
I am more interested in vastloper because he has or had the same QTEK 9090 as i did. and im just curious as to how your current ROM is? stable? anything ya dont like about it??
well guys updated to the 1.5 RADIO ROM after reading the whole thread... had some probs with installation but thanks to the INFO on the site i managed to get through it... however i did lose my MP3 sound. and could not find an answer to it so far.. anyone got an idea?
1 person mentioned he had the same problem. but everyone else didnt.
update
did some trouble shooting and narrowed it down to media player i think. If i do a soft reset, and load an MP3 from PDA HD, it works. but when i close media player, all my sound cuts out!! even basic windows tones.
the sound will work while playing the MP3, even when i use the pause button, But its only after i close MEDIA PLAYER all my sound stops working. Any ideas?
found a ref to the exact same problem.

i duno if theres a fix... Thinking about going to Tmobile 1.42 im going to bed ive been reading for 10 hrs straight and its 7 am.
Hi, this is my first time posting on this forum but I have nowhere else to go! I have had an XDA mini now for a few months and it has got to a stage now where I can only hear the other caller by using a bluetooth headset.
My question is would a new ROM affect this, is it the O2 ROM particularly bad? I am wary of flashing the ROM and want to know if a fresh one would make any difference at all.
I have also read up about Radio ROMS, can I just replace this?
Sorry for all the questions, I hope you guys can help!
Welcome to XDA-Developers.
If your in call volume has gotten steadily worse over time, it may be a hardware issue. Before you go trying to flash a new ROM you may want to try backing up your personal data and then doing a hard reset first and see if that solves the problem. If it doesn't then flashing a new ROM probably won't help much either.
If you do decide to try flashing a new ROM then make sure you read and re-read the posts on CID unlocking first and make sure you know what you're doing because doing it wrong can turn it in to a nice expensive shiny brick.
You asked if you can replace Radio ROM's, the answer to that is yes. There are plenty of them around here that you can try out. You might try changing to a different radio ROM first before trying a hard reset, but since you said it's been getting steadily worse I'm thinking that it's probably not your problem. I could be wrong about that though.
Thanks for the reply!
I wouldnt say 'steadily worse' but when I got it it was ok and kept going from normal to whisper quiet, like it was a problem with the signal, now its stuck at whisper quiet. I have done many a hard reset and this worked first time around, but then the cycle repeated itself. Now a hard reset does nothing.
Could it be a speaker connection? Also friends have reported that although I can hear them properly on handsfree (built in), they cannot hear my voice very clearly. Seems an odd combo to me....but hey what do I know!
Could you recommend a radio rom or is it a case of trial and error?
Radio ROMs are kind of a trial and error thing, what works for one person in one area might not work so well for someone else in another. It depends on who your carrier is and where you're located. Try 2.19.11 first, it seems to be the one that works for the most people. If that one doesn't work well, try 2.47 and/or 2.69 next as they seem to be the next runners up.
awesome! will give it a go and let you know!
Thanks again!
sorry to be a pain! but where do I get the rom from?

From this forum. Make a search
didn't see that link! Cheers!!
didn't see that link! Cheers!!
I am gonna sound like a complete muppet now but how do i install a radio rom. To complicate things more I am a mac user, but have an intel mac so can run windws stuff if necessary.
Sorry to hassle but im not much good at this stuff!
I don't know anything about mac's, but if you can run windows programs like you said, connect your phone to your sync cable and then run the ROMUpdateUtility that is included in the zip file and just follow the instructions. It's easy, and since I'm guessing that you haven't done this kind of thing before, when the rom update utility runs it will tell you that you will lose all your information on your phone. You can ignore that, you won't lose anything. The same utility is used for installing entire ROMs in which case you would lose everything, but not when just updating a Radio ROM.
thanks for the info. Downloaded the radio Rom suggested, ran the utility but it tells me it cannot update and to get a newer version of the update utility. I have looked into this and it seems my Wizard is a G4 model, is there an update utility for this? if so where can I find it!
Thanks in advance!
dont worry found it on the G4 forum! Installed it and I can hear again! Never thought I would get it fixed! Thanks for all our help! It is no longer in danger of flying against the nearest wall!
Hey everybody, I have been searching for hours on this problem but have not found an answer. I recently bought a att tilt (waiting to get it unlocked) and tried the camera and it was working, I just now "upgraded" to the HTC rom Sleuth's TyTN II Derivative (which is damn great) but my camera has stop working. Everything works fine but the camera. I havent installed anything on it but gps viewer and the slide to unlock. ANybody with the same problem? or anybody with a fix? thank you,

Is your sound working OK?
If not, then it's definately a wrong RADIO ROM.

Wow, that was helpful...NOT!
I'd try a second HR to see if that cures it. I try to make sure that I always do a HR after installing the ROM, don't know why but it does seem to help.
i had that problem with a tilt that was flashed to a kaiser rom. camera wouldn't start...just lagged and no feed came through using dutty's No5 rom. his No5 version for the tilt(or whatever number it was) got the camera to work but no gprs connection. his No6 rom has all things go.
only a few had the same problem so it went unexplained, so just flash around. good luck, as i don't really have a better answer as i was in the same boat
Same problem here camera is just black and laggs like heck
I havent checked my sound yet because as I said I havent unlocked the SIM yet, still waiting on the code but everything else works great. I dont really need the cam buti have it there so its hard to ignore it. Ill try what you guys recomment and will post back. thanks guys

What's wrong with my post?
When you have a Kaiser with the latest ROM and latest RADIO ROM, your camera and sound will work. However, when you flash a (cooked) HTC ROM you have to downgrade your RADIO ROM. If you don't, your sound and CAMERA will not work!
hmm interesting, i have to wait till i get it unlocked to test the sound (you are talking about calling sound and not just keyboard/ ringtones, etc right? how do i downgrade my radio rom? can you please point me out to a link and to which one i should be downgrade it to.
hmmm, i just checked and i do not have sound so i think that its the radio rom. dammit, i knew it wasnt going to be that easy. Gotta find a way to downgrade my radio rom now, any help is appreciated
johan had the right answer, it was indeed the radio rom, changed my radio rom and it is working flawlessly. thank you guys alot for your help! Love the damn phone
It's the radio
you need to tune in the right station with the right radio j/k... just download other or posibly NIKI radios works great!
We all know how bad Windows 6.1 performed thanks to HTC never providing us with the correct video drivers...
I just installed 6.5 from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519715
And now my phone is UNBELIEVABLY sluggish, I mean 2 second delays between selections and screen changes...this is pathetic really
I thought people were saying 6.5 was faster
Anybody else have this problem
I don't know any of that. 6.1 was good to me and 6.5 better.
Just because you have problems doesn't mean we do.
You should be posting on TCP's thread. I'm using it and very happy .. in certain aspects, it's faster.
Did you flash OEM before doing this? SPL version and Radio is important too ..

I am a bit curious about that. I unlocked mine with hard-SPL after much fight getting it to run and installed the new radio packed with it and then updated to TCP Elite, and for some reason, the radio is acting up, I can get calls and when I hang up, I get this wierd humming noise even while hung up, afterwards which the phone wont answer calls. (Radio version is 1.70.Olinex, SPL 1.0 Olipof). Also, the camera doesnt work either. Anyone else having any issues with this and if so, what fixed it?

I would suggest reading the flashing for noobs guide again, as you have a radio that is hacked to unlock the phone and isn't meant to be used everyday, and you have an SPL that is in the exact same boat. Read my sig as to what I have for a Radio and my SPL, they work great for me!

Thanks. I am running what I am running due to having the white screen issue as well as the "rare" (per another thread somewhere) USB connection issue, so the ones I am running are because of all the hassle it took to get the USB to connect. Once I did, I was a little nervous about going much further. Thanks for the updates. I will surely look into it after work.

Just flash via SD card... I would upgrade your Hard SPL first, then upgrade your Radio... no need to hard rest after flashing any of those... just follow the sticky guides in the ROM Development forum.
Hey guys.. Been a long time hermes flasher.. A buddy of mine boogered up the trackball of his blackberry and I fixed it, so he gave me his ATT Tilt (kaiser).
I noticed that when I first got it (i just stuck in my sim card and played with it for a bit) I could hear myself in the earpiece exactly like you can when you use any land line phone. I loved it, because it just felt more 'normal'. Well I upgraded to Sakajati IOLITE whatever rom and 1.65.something radio and have lost that feature... I've tried a few other roms and radios (1.70.x) and have had no luck regaining this. I even tried reverting to a standard ATT rom but no luck.
I'm surprised no one else has really mentioned this other than this thread....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358128
If anyone could enlighten me on this subject, by all means please do. It really enhanced the usability of the phone.
Moved as not ROM Development...
Normally it's a Radio issue, i'd try some others and i'm sure there are more threads of people who have no phone capability even after flashing the recommended radio's..
