[Q] Top Speaker Problems - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Once in a while my top speaker stops working. I don't know what's causing it. I have to reboot my phone to get it working again. Does anyone else have this problem? I think it still gets sound when making phone calls but I have to test that again. I know it stops working for music or videos and stuff.
I have a Rogers HTC One but I converted it to international to install 4.2.2.

Problem when receiving call

Hello all,
I have got the T-Mobile version of the diamond (MDA Compact IV).
Sometime when my phone received a call and I press the on screen answer button, the other person can hear me speak but I cannot hear them at all. There are also times when I call someone and they can hear me but I cant hear them.
I have checked the volume control and it is on max. The only way to resolved this I find is to reset the phone. At the moment I seem to be doing a soft reset every other day and it is getting a bit annoying.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
did you upgrade to 1.93 rom ?

Temp Fix to this issue.
I have found a temp fix for this problem. When this problem occur during a call, press the middle button (circle button) which activate the screen, then press the speaker icon and you will be able to hear the person on the line and be able to continue the conversation.
Bare in mind, the moment you switch off the speaker, you cant hear the other person again It is very annoying that you have to use speaker in order to get the phone working. But at least you can use your phone meanwhile..
I really hope someone could come up with a permanent fix to this problem.
Hi all,
I have the same problem.
Is there a solution for this problem with an update of the rom ? I have the last official update from HTC (which updates the radio, etc.).
I have this problem many times on a day. My solution by the momment is to do a soft-reset...
Is there any solution updating to other ROM ?
Thanks.
Hi,
I have the same problem too.
Exact same problem here.
Can somebody please help out! I Really do not want to send my HTC for repair.
I don't think you have a choice. I tried changing radios and roms still having the same problem. It sucks ball that this problem is happening on another set of my diamond. The 1st set got repaired and its been functioning well for the past 4 months or so..

Strange audio issue

It now happened for the third time: The phone is up and running but when an incoming call is received it does not ring at all and the microphone + speaker is also not working (muted) - basically there is no audio at all though you can take and end the call.
Once the phone is in this state alarms and sound notifications are no longer working as well, after a soft reset everything was fine again.
I wonder if I'm the only user who has experienced this kind of issue.

well foo, i got it to, but i had the same problem wuth my diamond as well, it went away with tge officual rom update, so ill guess well have to wait foor the rom upgrade this time to.
Ah okay - at least I'm not alone with this issue, good to know.
It seems this problem is not a common problem, as I do not read any other posts regarding this issue in the Xperia section. Though I found a thread in the Diamond section that exactly describes my problem.
As HTC stated the problem is related to a hardware issue, I returned mine now. I'm lucky that Amazon.de just returned me the money (completely) so I can buy another one in the next days.
It seems I am having this problem with my X1i. I am in the US and the Sony Ericsson support centre in the UK is telling me that I would have to pay for shipping to and from the UK Sony Repair centre.
The following web page suggests I am eligible for international support and repairs, but I called the US Sony Ericsson line and they told me that since the X1 was not released here yet, that I would not be able to receive support in the US for the X1 (either for getting it repaired or a replacement unit).
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...endedserviceoffertailoredforx1/x1?cc=gb&lc=en
I would send it back to superetrader.co.uk and get a replacement that way, but they do not have any in stock and given delays in shipments in the UK I am hesitant to send it back and wait for new stock.
I am going to try going into a Sony Style store sometime this week and show them my "Travelers service" card and see if they can get it fixed here. Does anyone have any other suggestions I might try?
bluetooth problem with carkit and audio off
I folks,
i do also have the same problem. I have a SE BT car kit HCB 300 and it is just annoying, that it does not work proper. Sometimes BT works, sometimes not, sometimes i have to restart the phone, sometimes ... just annoying.
A lot of times Xperia recognizes the 300, then i am calling somebody, phone is giving signal to the 300, but after a few seconds, audio is off again.
After that audio is not working anymore.
Could it be, that your problems are also caused by the known BT problem?
Ingo
Exactly same problem
Exactly the same problem as foo.
If you remove and replace battery, sometime problem is solve, sometime no.
Soft reset solve the problem.
I made hardware reset + flash xperia but no solution.
I returned mine and bought a new one that does not have this issue. It really seems to be a hardware issue.

It could be, although I have not paired with a BT headset since buying it, and in addition I have hard reset the phone and put it in airplane mode (no RF at all) and the audio still manages to completely die where only a Soft Reset will restore the sound (as noted by x1inside).
Depending on the amount of time I leave the phone sometimes the phone after playing some music for 5 seconds will stutter and restore sound. This is similar to the description in the Touch Diamond thread that foo linked. Also when this stutter sound restores, as noted in that thread, the reception indicator in the system tray indicates that the signal is temporarily lost and then restored.

Thanks for letting us know, good to have this confirmed so when I visit the store or send it to Sony Ericsson repair centre, I can refer them to this thread.
well i also have the same problem with my x1.
reseting it dosent work, flashing it with new rom dosent work.
But i cant understand how the problem would be in the hardware, when you reset it it starts working! i mean if it was a hardware problem the sound should be of all the time?
Is there ant possibility if this is a software problem, i mean WindowsMobile 6.1, because my dad complaining the same behavior yesterday, and his device is Samsung Omnia.
Do all WM6.1 effected?
I got the X1a in the US. No problem here. When there is an incoming call and I was on the phone then it will beep to let me know if I want to answer or inorge. If I answer then it will put other call on hold till finish talking then connect me back to the first caller.
My x1 is also affected by this audio problem. If I restart my phone sound output works for some minutes and turns automatically off as the other users reported.
Same problem here just got an X1 and the sound works perfect after leaving it a short while the sound completely stops working no music, notifications or anything. By the sounds of it I think I will send mine back to O2 and get a replacement, although it does seem more like some sort of software fault than hardware to me, like the previous post why would it be corrected by a soft reset every time. If anyone has any suggestions before I send this thing back I will be happy to try them.
I returned my x1 and after 5 weeks of "repairing" I got called and they said it cannot be repaired and I got a brand new phone.
I had that exact same problem. I'd leave my phone alone for a while and then when I came back to it a few hours later, it would have no audio at all. I could make a call, the other person could hear me but I couldn't hear them and it wouldn't audibly alert me to anything...
I couldn't pin it down to any particular circumstances but it was always resolvable with a soft-reset. A hard-reset didn't cure the issue either. I just sent it back in the end. My current one is fine although I have now upgraded the ROM to the latest one.
I do have one outstanding issue though and that's that when sending a text, it sends immediately, flashes up the bubble saying msg sent, but the vibrate from sending the message will come about 10 minutes after or it'll do it when I turn the screen back on. It's not a biggie but it's a bit weird.
scarey
I have the same prob, but its strange that when pushing the MS-Voice-Controll button the beep comes and everything works perfekt again.
So I don´t need to soft oder hard reset, but it drives me crazy not knowing whether my alarms or notifications do work or not. BUT: I cant believe its a hardware problem.
same problem...
With 3-4 custom rom...
I'm trying with orginal ROM...
Any news?

No speakerphone and the phone doesn't ring

Hi,
I recently installed AOSP Gingerbread 20110120 on my HTC Hero and it was working well until I attempted to install Sprint Visual Voicemail. Speakerphone doesn't work and my phone doesn't ring when I receive calls (the volume setting are high). I installed the latest Gingerbread which I hoped would fix the problem but there were no changes. Any suggestions as to how I can fix this?
Thanks!
Sounds like it may be a speaker problem. I'd try flashing another rom or nand back to your last to see if it works then. My girlfriend had the same problem and was the speaker. Sprint store fixed for 35 dollars on the spot, she was within the 1st year with the phone, not sure where you stand.

Thanks. I'll try that.
I had a similar problem and it was a hardware speaker problem (I thought the speaker had blown) I'm not sure exactly what the problem was, but I was able to fix it by removing the battery cover and pressing down on the top part of the battery (just under the camera) in random places, I'd recommend having music or something attempt to play through the phone speakers so you know if/when it worked.
I have only had that problem once since (it's been about 4 months) and every time it happens I just repeat, hopefully that's all your problem is.
I actually took my phone to Sprint today. They said the speaker was bad. It's been replaced and is working now.
Previously I flashed the update of the ROM I had been using. I was unable to access my nand backup after using the ClockworkMod Recovery (unless I wasn't doing something right).
I'll definitely try your suggestion eqzgkxokwa if it happens again
Thank you both for your help

No sound in earpiece, sensors not working

Today my phone randomly stopped sending sound through the normal speaker on the front, and the sensors there dont work either anymore. Everything was jolly around 3, when i made a call. Then later at 8 pm i got in the car and turned on pandora plugged into the audio jack.
When i got home, no sound in the earpiece when i made or recieved calls, I also noticed that the screen wasn't turning off when it was up against my ear like it normally did.
I noticed it was being very laggy with response to the sensor last week some time.
I've pulled the battery, did a clean install of my ROM again, (firefly) flicked the back of it, rebooted many times, charge it up, shook it violently, nothing seems to work.
Sound comes out of everywhere else on the phone with no troubles. The sensor no longer works at all, it's set to auto bright and now it will never change.
I've also tried doing a factory data wipe, and a data wipe in CWM recovery.
Craptivate is fail again.
Anyone have any experience with both the speaker AND the sensor being out at the same time
Sounds like faulty hardware...flash to stock. If it's still broke get a replacement...
Man, if motoblur wasn't such garbage i'd get an atrix. Maybe i'll switch to tmobile and get the G2x
What's best way to flash back to stock, odin?
Yup. thor's father.

won't change the terrible way it stores contact information or all the junk in it.
Are there any ROMs for it yet? It's still pretty new but I thought I heard something about one
Had this same problem. I was about to reflash but stumbled on the solution. For some reason the phone got stuck in headphone mode. Anyway, when in call simply mute then un-mute. Hope this works for you.

Call quality - going silent from the other end?

Hello,
I have the UK unlocked HTC One, currently running Android Revolution HD 12.2. I've been experiencing really poor call quality - as well as the person I am calling being very quiet, apparently from the other end I simply 'cut out' with some regularity. This happens whether or not there is a case on the phone (although neither of my cases blocks the hole on the back for noise cancelling.) Today, for example, I had to call one person three times before they could hear me, but I also cut out mid conversation at points.
This is getting seriously irritating. Is there any way that I can prove that this is happening - any mic tests etc that can be done? Or is my only chance to go back to stock, take it into the shop, and hope they can replicate the issue?
Cheers for any advice!

Is there any chance that this issue could be solved by flashing a different Radio? I'm on EE UK, using their LTE network, and I'm not sure which radio would be best for battery/connection! I'm currently running Android HD 20.1.
Thanks very much for any advice!

I get this aswell, I'm on Tesco which is O2 but often the other person says they didn't hear me, like it went silent for a second or so. I read somewhere about holding the phone and covering the mic as a possible cause but I know I don't hold anywhere near the bottom of the phone. Every single time I make a call aswell there's like a 2 second pause before anybody can hear me, this bugs me also.
I haven't seen a solution anywhere so I too would like an answer.

That sounds like the exact same problem, and it happens whether or not I'm using a case. I'm *definitely* not covering the cut-out on the back either.
I'm going to try flashing the Orange UK radio, will report back on whether or not it works!
Dont see flashing to a different radio working.
I had my fully updated stock HTC One develop a problem with the Mic about a month ago, so i sent it back. HTC couldn't fix it so sent me a new one....just three days later that developed exactly the same problem.

How did you test the problem? I'm having trouble flashing the radio and the problem is sufficiently intermittent that I'm going to have a hard time proving it when I take it back to the shop.
If the problem is intermittent then i doubt you have the problem, once i got it it never went away.
