[Q] Tytn II mic issues (WM6.1) - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hello, I'm having issues with my Tytn II, its running WM6.1(freshly flashed), flashed Radio ROM 1.71.09.01, still no luck it doesn't work on calls and even in voice recorder, tried change to mic from Nokia without any luck, even checked impediance of original mic and its working got ~70 Ohms. It broke when I was running WM6.5 in call other side just stopped to hear me after few mins of talk.
Any ideas?

Hey mate,
its been a while since I've been on win6.1 but audio issues are usually related to the Radio. Have you checked that you are using a radio that is compatible with your rom? from memory, for 6.1 you need some of the early radios (1.65.xx maybe???)
-Dan

Thanks for reply, yes, I've encountered some bugs and went to 1.65.16.25, replaced mic from another Nokia, now it has some problems but works(a lot of noise ), but battery is draining quite fast. ~7% per night when it was in standby.

Kaiser Microphone Problem with Loudspeaker On

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...

Bluetooth Handsfree on MEX-BT2500 - Incoming Calls don't Work

I have an MDA Vario III branded phone using the HTC ROM 1.56.405.5 and a sony MEX-BT2500 (Bluetooth enabled stereo with A2DP).
http://www.audio66.com/product.asp?id=5616&cat=1&man=6&main=1&userid=&firstsel=cat&variation=
The A2DP works well (except it's a pain to enable/disable it using the WM6 interface!) and I can make outgoing calls fine with the phone paired with the Sony but when incoming calls come in, the ringer is routed to the stereo but when I answer it the voice doesn't and I have to hang up and call the person back.
I paired my work Nokia with the stereo and both incoming and outgoing calls work fine.
I tried the original T-Mobile ROM and still had the same trouble.
I'm assuming (with no knowledge of what I am talking about) that the bluetooth stack on WM6 has some issue with routing incoming calls but I can't find any reference to this problem anywhere else and it would seem to be the kind of problem I'd expect millions of users to have a problem with and that there would be a lot of posts.
Does anyone else use bluetooth handsfree? Does it work properly? Does anyone use a bluetooth stereo and A2DP? Does it work properly? Does anyone know if there's a fix?
Thanks for the info in advance...
mine works Ok with my BT2500 although sometimes it needs to be re-paired
Info
Can you tell me what ROM version you have and what model your phone is, radio version, installed programs etc? so I can try changing things.
If you hae a2dp music being streamed and a call comes in does it still work?
ROM is UK Vodafone out-of-the box original (v1615 = Tytn II) 1.56.161.4
Radio is 1.27.12.11
Have Seuth255's A2DPFix from the Hermes forums (prevents skipping)
MS Voice Command V1.6 (i have a SE BT headset too)
Remainder are general apps, gps etc.
haven't tried a call when music is streaming. will do later and let you know
Works for me too, with the original HTC ROM.
Everything is working fine here. I have a MEX-BT2507X, and there's some random 0.2sec cut every 15mins of playtime, but that's not a problem.
Have you used the quickfix from HTC?

I didn't know about the HTC Quickfix. I've just downloaded it and installed but haven't got round to leaving the PC to test it yet. I'll give it a go later and post back.
Fingers crossed...
Audio not working
My audio is not playing through the car speakers with the BT-2500. I had it professionally installed, but was running late to class so I didnĀ“t fully test it until I got home a few hours ago.
I can control the tracks and play/pause, accept/end calls, and the dash microphone works, but my audio is not being pushed and played for some some reason (does work for CD, and Radio). I tried repairing numerous times, resets, and different programs, but no luck... but audio push worked great on a handsfree kit.
any ideas are greatly appreciate... I will take this back to the shop tomorrow, but I would like to know if anybody else experienced this and how they fixed it.
Thanks!! =)
btw, I use stock AT&T rom

...much, much later...
I finally got round to trying it out and even with the quickfix I still have the same problem. My mate also has a Kaiser so I borrowed that (UK O2 ROM I think) and that doesn't work either.
Most odd. maybe I'll ring Sony.
I have the same problem with my Jabra 620s. Maybe somethings wrong with the headset itself?
Can you let me know ur ROM, radio versions so I can see if we have anything the same.

TyTN II + Parrot 3200+ LS Colour

Hello,
I wonder if somebody can help me get to the bottom of this.
Basically, I have a TyTN II (branded as a T-Mobile MDA Vario III). I also have a Parrot 3200+ LS Colour car hands free kit.
Initially, I had a TyTN (branded as a T-Mobile MDA Vario II) and this worked fine with the Parrot. Problems began when I upgraded it to Windows Mobile 6 after an update was released by T-Mobile. What would happen is as I started the engine and the Parrot connected to the phone, it would say I was in a call even though I wasn't. It could only be resolved by rebooting the phone.
When I got the TyTN II, the problem became more frequent to the point where it was just annoying to use.
Now, this is where it gets interesting. Parrot are blaming Microsoft for this problem and aparently the problem *may* or *may not* get fixed in 6.1 which is some time off yet. It is a Bluetooth Stack issue aparently but I am not sure I believe them on this nor their attitude to if it will actually get fixed.
I am wondering if anybody knows anything more about this or any fix for it.
Best Regards,
Craig Brass

Install one of the 6.1 ROMs here and see if it helps?
I have this with my TyTn II and parrot 3300. It also used to happen with my Orbit.
I noticed that it only does it when a data connection is active. If I press the red button on the Parrot it clears and all is good.
Not sure if yours is the same issue.
I have a Parrot 3100, and have loads of problems! It randomly crashes, it randomly decides to want to call random people, it randomly decides to route the call through the Tytn II rather than the Parrot, and it randomly works without a problem. I emailed Parrot and got this response:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The HTC TyTn II is still undergoing compatibility tests with our products, thus is not listed as being compatible at present. We are currently also working closely with HTC to improve compatibility and functionality with new PDA devices running Windows Mobile 6.
I would recommend dialing out from the Parrot as opposed to using your handset as from experience this works best.
I would also recommend updating the software on your Parrot, the latest version is 4.16. To update you will need a Bluetooth enabled PC (preferably a laptop) and our Parrot update tool software. http://www.parrot.com/usa/support/downloads
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just noticed tonight that a new version is available for download, (4.17) so I have upgraded the Parrot and will give it a try tomorrow.
Cheers
so, was the upgrade succesfull? did it solve ur issue?
I'm also having issues using my tytn ii with the parrot ck3100. (standard firmware in it)
No, it hasn't completely. It has solved most of the problems, but it now decides to (randomly) mute incoming calls, and route the audio through the handset instead. It also decided to route the TomTom audio via the parrot! I didn't think that was possible???
I'm having some of the same sorts of problems w/ the Parrot CK3100 and my Tilt. Of course, I just go it installed last nite, so I haven't had a ton of time to play with it. I DID, however, do a long road trip today and here's what I've found.
When initiating a call from the phone, there's about a 50/50 chance that it will go thru the handset or Parrot.
One time, the Parrot locked up to a point that I had to get off at an exit and restart the engine to reset it.
I had to re-pair the phone and Parrot once, because the lost one another.
I'm running the latest AT&T ROM on my phone and latest firmware on the CK3100. I never had ANY of these problems w/ my Nokia CK-7W, but it had a REALLY annoying echo on the other end when used w/ anything but a Nokia phone.
Dan
Today, things got even stranger. As of this morning, the kit would try to initiate a phantom call every time the car was started and it connected w/ the phone.
Then, it was muting the radio for 1-2 seconds every 3 to 5 minutes - very annoying when listening to an audiobook.
As of this afternoon, both problems magically stopped. I have e-mailed Parrot tech support, but I'm not hopeful that I'll get a useful reply.
I have had so many problems with the 3200 that ,due to anger, I have broken the bracket and front screen. It mutes the radio even after the call has finished. Crashes too often. I have no audio at least half of the calls I make.
I must add that it also did this with my Trinity running WM6 but worked flawlessly with my SP5 smartphone.
I read "HTC and Parrot Announce Strategic Alliance" on the Reuters website.
How I chuckle.

Choppy Voice Call on Kaiser (Worse on Speakerphone)

I have a AT&T Tilt running Sleuth 3.0 ROM, with its Radio.
When I'm in call, the person on the other end sometimes doesn't hear me.
It's like the auto cut-off ambience/background noise is working too much, especially when the person background is so noisy, he can hear nothing as if my mic is muted.
This happens very bad if I'm on speaker phone, when I'm driving I put my tilt on the center box, the person on the other hand can hear choppy voices of mine.
Anyone experience this?
It's hard to explain, but basically it's like the old handfree cordless phone on speaker, with auto cut-off ambience feature.
Do I need to upgrade the Radio?
Mine is running 1.64.08.21
Thanks all
I have the same problem. I have 3 At&t tilts phone, 2 of them use Diamond V10, and one is V9. Yet, all have the same problem to you. I hope that if anybody can solve this problem. Thanks so much.
solution
I had that problem to!
In the mobile shop they said we must send it to let it repair.
i thought that can take many weeks!!
What i did was updated my rom to windows mobile 6.1..!
and now i can talk over my speaker and the noise reduction works fine..!!
its much better with WM 6.1..!!!!
I hope it will helps you..!
sorry for my language usage i don't speak english very wel..!
Through searching, I found out a solution that is to upgrade the Radio, for my TIlts Diamond V9 & V10 I use Radio 1.71.09.01. (current is 1.57. .... somthing). It works well now.

Kaiser no sound problem. Goes Mute Randomly

Device Information:
Operator Version: Unlocked
ROM Version: Ultimate-x2.v11 WWE
ROM Date: 02/30/09
Radio Version: 1.71.09.01
Protocol Version: 25.75.40.02.eMoh
ExitROM Version: Premium
Hi, I would appreciate if someone could shed some light on this problem
I get no sound from my Kaiser at Random.
This problem began to happen with my Old RaphaelIII ROM..I do not know which SPL or what radio I had before. (But Im sure it was the one Recommended on the thread.) The phone had run with that ROM for about 6 Months without any sound issues.
I upgraded to ROM Ultimate-v2 because of the sound issue. The symptoms are the same with the new ROM as the old one. I don't think the problem is isolated to the new ROM, that's why I did not post this on the Ultimate-v2 Thread.
I have left the phone playing an mp3 tune on a table, and the sound comes on and off by itself for no apparent reason. the problem includes both speakers. And when I make a phone call I can't hear the other person and they can't hear me neither. The phone does vibrate consistently tho.
Thanks.
Btw Someone here is having the same problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556339
Edit:
I tested the phone with a bluetooth headset while the sound was gone. I was able to hear and speak fine trough it.
Edit:
I installed another rom and sound is working fine now. but everything else is crappy. this phone sucks.
no sound randomly
Hi there,
I have the same problem.
Mine started after the htc official upgrade from 6.0 to 6.1.
since then intermitted sound during calls (other side can't hear me, i hear them perfectly)
still searching forums on what to do.
spl:3.34dave
radio: varies on ROM (recommended radio)
I have a problem like that. No solution just posting so I can find this post later.
Usually happens to me when I am listing to music and I pull out my head phones.
Speaker sound goes out and when I plug back in the headphones they are also dead.
Ear speaker on calls still works.
Was using WMP to listen to music but switch to S2P a few days ago.
Has not happened since the switch but that may be a coincidence.
Stock 6.1 with ATT stuff stripped.
I have a similar problem to crowbar. Some calls the person on the other end of the line can hear me, some calls they can't. I can hear them perfectly. It' been happening for a few months now. I'm on stock Orange 6.1 (obtained from here). Just bought a cheap Samsung phone to use for now, until I can, hopefully, find a solution. I'm ythinking of trying some of the 6.5 ROMS to see if that cures it.
ROM 3.28.61.0.WWE
Radio 1.65.16.25
