Hi.
The problem is that when making or receiving phone calls, no audio can be heard (audio is sent fine) - unless the speakerphone is enabled.
This problem appeared randomly at some point after it had been running a custom WM6.5 build for some time.
The exact same problem is now persisting under ANDROID.
Is this most likely a broken speaker or a software fixable issue?
I'm using the latest available radio and HARD SPL.
Anyone know a way to enable the speakerphone mode by default under ANDROID?
BUMP
I've read in some threads that certain HTC phones have a problem where the USB port thinks that a USB headphone is plugged in and then disables the regular audio, seems the only remedy is jiggling the port which hasn't helped for me..
Is this the problem with my Kaiser?
Any fix or workaround, or at least software hack in Android to make the speakerphone default then
bump!
..........
Have you hard reset or reflash?
I have hard reset and flashed different OS -
The problem 'appeared' after it was running fine for a long period of time though (with no configuration changes) - so I think that perhaps the problem lies with the mini usb jack as noted in post #2 - but i may be wrong?

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...
Hi!
I've got a Dimond recently and a problem with it. After few days of working fine it stoped to reproduce the sound during the call. If I call to somebody he can hear me, but I can't hear anything (incoming calls also). If I switch on speaker - it works, if I plug in the handset - it works also. I've bought it in Germany, original ROM was - 1.37.407.2. I don't speka German, so I changed it to Elite 2.0 and it worked fine during few days... The main problem is that I'm in Ukraine, so I can't use official service to repair it. Please, help if you know what is wrong...
Did anybody face such trouble?
Few questions:
1. When you put it on loud speaker and it works, what happens when you switch it BACK to internal speaker - does it still work?
2. Have you reset the phone yet?
3. Maybe a hard reset is due?
4. What ROM/Radio versions do you have (start>settings>System>device information)
hi akash_84
i have same problem , and about your questions my answers is:
1. yes it still work>
2. yes many time
3. i do a hard reset but the problem not solve.
4. ROM version: 1.35.401.3 WWE
ROM date: 05/28/08
Radio version : 0.93.25.NS26
protocol version: 52.26.25.09H
Thank you!!!
i have the same problem, on call there is no sound from both speakers (earpiece and loud speaker) all,
done the hard reset and update rom, still no good
thanks
Unfortunately I'm experiencing the same problem with my Diamond. No sound through the earpiece, people can hear me perfectly, no problems when using (bluetooth) headset or speaker. I've been looking around for a while but I can't find any proven solutions. Ultimately, people send their phone in for repair. It seems to be a hardware problem with the headset/no headset switch in the USB connector.
Anybody who had this problem and fixed it themselves?
My Diamond was having the same problem. Nobody in the forum achieved a solution until now. It seems to be a physical problem, not software. I changed the ROM several times without success. I can only replace the equipment. Now let's see what the next problem. This is the second time I return the unit.
Hi there since yesterday I have a Problem with my HTC Topaz. While calling I can't hear the other side. The phone did NOT crashed, got NO Impact or Shock! I tried to reboot, then I flashed 5 different ROMs and tried 2 Stock ROMs 6.5 and 6.1, I changed 3x the radio (4.49.25.91, 3.43.25.19, 4.49.25.17) without any progres.
Otherwise the phone works correctly.
The phone speaker works correctly - music plays, the phone is ringing...
I can make calls using headset without any problem...
I still think it is not a HW problem (speaker and headset works), but have no other Idea how to fix it.
Any Idea / Suggestion before I send the damn phone to service or buy (most likely) new one?
EDIT 1: Just tried to replace the mainboard (got second - broken - Touch Diamonda 2) Board functionality 100%, but still the same error - no sound while calling.
EDIT 2: Problem solved: It was HW problem! After replacing the speaker, the phone works good again. What I do not understand is, why the phone made sounds, played music and malfunctioned only during calls. Nevertheless, problem solved. I found this disassemlby guide very helpfull: http://translate.google.co.uk/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pdacenter.ru%2Frazborka%2Fhtc-touch-diamond2%2F&sl=ru&tl=en&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

I have an older car (2004 BMW 330ci) with built-in factory bluetooth. All of my previous smartphones would connect to it with varying degrees of success. Because of this variation, I believe the car's bluetooth system to be "less than universal" as far as compatibility is concerned. The problem is, my new HTC One is all but useless with it! The volume during calls is barely above a whisper, and callers report that they can barely hear me. Also, while it hasn't disconnected any calls, outside of a call the phone alternatively displays " bluetooth connected" and " bluetooth disconnected", cycling about every 10 seconds.
From previous experience, I know there's a significant software component to compatibility with this system. For example my stock Nexus S 4G would connect and work well but would occasionally drop the connection. But then the paranoid android rom on the same phone would not only never drop a connection, it would transmit sms text messages and my contacts directory to the car as well. No other phone or rom has done that.
So.. some questions...
1.) Anyone else having this problem? If so, what kind of vehicle?
2.) Any other BMW drivers not having this problem with the HTC One? If so, year and model?
3.) This is probably an ignorant "noobish" one, but... is it possible to extract the bluetooth software from the nexus paranoid android rom and bring it over to the HTC One?
4.) Know of any HTC One roms that make changes to the bluetooth software?
5.) Any other advice you can give that may help?
I've tried Volume+ to no avail. Version 1.9 states it isn't fully compatible with the One's android version, and version 2.0 alpha doesn't yet have bluetooth functionality.
Thanks for your help! If I discover a solution, I'll post an update.

Hi,
I have a 2006 bmw z4 (e85) and I'm having exactly the same problem with sound level via bluetooth.
My previous phones (htc sensation xe and htc touch pro 2) worked flawlessly with the car
I would also love to find a solution to it, because there's no bluetooth firmware upgrade available at BMW's..
Same issue, but it only arose with the 4.3 update. Before that Bluetooth had other issues even recognizing my stereo, now it connects flawlessly but cycles the "Connected" and "Disconnected" message every couple seconds. 2006 avalon, but with custom stereo and system.
I think that one's bluetooth stack uses some different compression method than sensation. I dont know whether its some kind of codec or encryption method, because system sounds are loud and clear and a person's voice is quiet and with some interference.
Hope that someone will find a solution to this problem - probably downgrading bluetooth stack would solve the problem

I have a similar problem with my Acer Liquid E2 duo phone connecting to Dension 500S BT kit installed in my Audi. It works all fine when I place a call from the phone. But if I dial from my media interface, i get a very low call volume and adjustment using the car volume control doesn't work any more.
A little thread revival
After upgraiding my htc one to android 4.4 kitkat the problem is partially solved, meaning the bluetooth volume is slightly higher, but only slightly - still cannot get a clear loud sound I used to have while using htc sensation with stock ICS.
Any luck with you, guys?

Try Viper4Android, you must be rooted tho.

any fixes to this problem yet ??
Try using "HTC car" app
I had the same problem for six months and just found a solution that works for me.
I just found out that the HTC One Bluetooth audio connection (A2DP) plays with a very different volume depending on whether the "HTC car" app is active or not.
For six months I have been playing music daily in my car using HTC One (media app: Qobuz) as source and Bluetooth as connection. The source volume was very low, so that I had to keep the audio car audio system near maximum level. Eventually, this abnormal use of my car audio system destroyed it: I had to replace the receiver, and may have to replace the speakers too.
Only this morning, after six months, I found out that when launching the media app from within the "HTC car" app, the output volume is much louder, and I can set the receiver's volume at a normal level.
I guess HTC does this to prevent ear damage when the One is connected to a Bluetooth headset. Great, but they should mention it in the HTC One user instructions, or at least on their website! It destroyed my car audio system!!
HTC One (M7)
Android 4.4.2
HTC Sense 6.0
Stock ROM

In my case car mode doesnt solve the problem - its a bluetooth compatibility issue I suppose

It is a fine piece of work that is done with Vivokat 4.4.2. As far as I can see, everything works as it should, except for the sound recording and Cast screen. If I choose Sound Recorder, and start recording, the phone locks up. The only way of getting out of it is to remove the battery. The only reason that I rooted and upgraded my phone was for making screen mirroring to my TV so it's a little boring that precise this feature does not work. Koushik Dutta from Cyanogen Inc. now has a beta version of Mirror which can be installed on a rooted 4.4.2. I have this app installed, and the program can see both my Apple TV ( v3) box and Airserver on my computer. However nothing happens when I select them. It tries to connect for approx. 7 seconds, and then nothing else happens. I can stream Flipps movies to both Apple TV and Airserver, so I have a suspicion that it might be Koushik Dutta's app is not working with HTC Incredible S. It's a beta version, so the possibility exists. It may also be that this HTC model, just can't do screen mirroring, regardless of which apps you use.
Does anyone have experience with screen mirroring from a HTC Incredible S?

I just found out a fatal error. The microphone does not work, so I can't use voice recorder and what is worse, those who call me can not hear what I say.
It seems that I need to find another ROM where the microphone is working Does anyone have a good idea in this context?
Vivokat Stable #3 (the previous build) worked perfectly in regards to the built-in microphone and phone calls (but has intermittent wifi issues), so if you just want audio to work, you can use that. szeszo put out an updated kernel for those on stable #4 to test out (which should fix the mic issue), but judging by the replies here on the forum, it looks like it doesn't seem to work for everyone.
