What is the silver button on the original handsfree kit meant to do? when i have an incoming call it wont pick up so, so is there meant to be another function to it or something? thanks
i second that also
this key doesn't answer the incoming call
is there someone else has this problem ?
anyone actally used the handsfree kit?
The wired one? I use mine all the time, answers calls here, and a double press makes it dial last number..
hi, i'am also having the same issues.
the silver button does not pick up calls.
has anyone found a solution for this?
I have the same problem
I live at HK
I have been to the Service Center,
But denied it is the handfree fault but the rom bug..
I argued with them, then changed to a new handfree,
but the problem still there....
Hi everybody,
I'm new here and very grateful for all the brilliant solutions you guys come up with to all sorts of issues with x1.
I have the same problem with my hands-free: the button doesn't work and neither does the microphone. Until now, I've thought of it as a simple matter of replacing the hands-free kit, but now I see the suggestion that this is a Rom bug! Will anyone be able to elaborate a bit on this?
thanks and best regards,
Sune
Really not sure it is real or not that is a rom or software bug,
but sure quite a number of problem of people experienced such problem!
I hope SE not to put a death ear on this issue.
It is really annoying as I quite often used the handfree.
hello everyone
the same problem on my russian x1 handsfree. Have tried to fix it with some patches - no results. Then I've bought Nokia Xpress music handsfree, and it works perfectly (and radio works too).
update
VERY SAD, but it doesn't fix the problem. bad quality of X1 jack - thats the problem. Xpress key doesn't answer the incoming call periodically too, but handsfree itself working good all the time

The first time i got to know the headphone dosen;t work in answering call, I really feel astonished. It is such a basic function of phone, how can the genius of SE dose not test it. Do them think we will buy another handfree???
Really disappointed of SE.....

Hi I'm Chris from Sri lanka,
Yes, I have the same issue! The handsfree seems to work when I remove it and re insert the jack during an incoming call, but not initially! It is very temeperamental and annoying. I also have a problem when I get an another call when I'm already on a call while using the handsfree. The current call goes to speaker phone and the party cannot hear wht I'm saying through my handsfree!
So I am forced to remove the handsfree and talk during such instances! Crazy this, especially since answering phone calls is one of the core functions of a cell phone! what's the point in having all the frills when answering a call is so tedious!
This is very disppointing, especially with such a high price tag to boot!
same case here. im really disappointed...
i guess that if i can when asus glaxy came out i will change mi xperia for that one... this phone is really "buggy"...
Same probleme here unfortunately.. I tried to remove all
additional programs related to dialing and volume,
switched to the new ROM, but no changes. Button on headset
does not work and microphone neither.
I also have same issue, both HK new stock ROM & cook rom also.
i'm form India, had purchased Xperia X1i and using Airtel network. when i connect my hands free and attend one call the moment second call come, automatically my loud speaker gets activated.
is any facing the same problem in Indai or any where else? will any one help me this.
is there any solutions?

Samething here, and the above works for me too (Remove and re insert), but SE really need to fix this for us.
I believe it's a hardware problem, bad 3.5mm jack!
My right earphone's volume has fallen to one tenth. I have it for less than a month. Good listening but bad manufacturing quality.
Personally I don't think it's bad hardware, I think it's bad firmware/rom.
Currently, with GENERIC UK ROM R2AA010, three presses of headset button dials last number, long press disconnects. Not tried incoming call yet.
I really need to be able to customize this buttons function, especially to activate Voice Command, so that I can make calls, play music etc, without the need for touching the phone. Only then, will I be able to make a button for the handlebars on my motorbike.
Want to use a fully wired system to save on battery power, rather than bluetooth. Also, in all the years of using bluetooth, I have yet to find a combination of handset and headset that work seamlessly.
So far, not impressed with the lack of functionality of this headset, but can see why it works like this. Essentially SE should have included Voice Command, then this hardware/software combination would have been shipped working effectively. I think it is merely a cost saving exercise and SE need to provide a patch and fix in their next rom release.
Just like some other models, the famous Noise Cancellation problem arrived IS.
Situation:
When a normal headphone (without mic) plugged in, or
When the handset is plugged to car kit
Problem:
Noise Cancellation activated and the other side cannot hear anything.
Workaround:
Unplug your phone and talk to it direct. Are we using a smartphone or stupidphone?
Solution:
1. Pray someday HTC will release an update, or
2. Pray someone can root IS and release an utility to deactivate Noise Cancellation
For 1, everyone here please test for yourself, and report to HTC support. I am not sure if they will release an update but at least they are polite enough to talk to. For 2, just pray.
all i use is a bluetooth carkit and that doesnt seem to have these problems for me at all...
idk if ur referring to a cabled one... but if thats the case erhm.... sorry idk ^^

Pay attention to the word "plugged". Yeah... bluetooth stereo headphones are fine too.
Hy! i have my IS since a week... i have the same promlems, nobody can hear my on the other side while i am driving....
when i am calling from home its alright. I dont understand how is it possible? please somebody help me!!!!!!!
I called HTC support about this issue and they replied it's a "feature" of the noise cancellation function. I really hope IS can be rooted soon so we can sort out the problem ourselves.
Same here, they gave me the same reply. But then I asked, is the "feature" intends to prevent user from using headphones or car kits, they cannot give me an answer but said they forward the case to the engineerin dept. Hope something can be done next.

Same problem here.
Fixed by Gingerbread!!! Yay!!!
Are you sure?
Yesterday I've talked to HTC germany and told them what they have to do to disable this crap feature.
Every HTC since Nexus One have this Problem.
It's in the build.prop, you have to change one single line...
On my phone it's now working fine, but I'm S-Off and rooted.
I've told HTC yesterday how-to fix this problem.
They say, that there are to few persons, who told there this problem.
Yes, I can also confirm that the GB upgrade fixes the mic problem with normal headphones.
Besides, I can no longer hear that little echo of my own voice I used to hear during a call. Just hope HTC didn't disable noise cancellation as a solution for this.
After using the one at home over the speakers to talk i must say thats the only bad thing about this phone.
The speak quality is poor and you have an consistent noise/hissing on the htc one side in background out of the speakers. The part on the other side told me i sound unnatural like i stand in a big empty room without furniture..tinny like.
As good as the speak is when you do it normaly at your ear as big it fails over the speakers....and thats inapprehensible cause the speakers are wonderful in playing music or videos...
Have anybody else this problem? When yes can it be a software problem? Or is it only my phone...
reviewees said speaker is excellent even using it on phone calls. have you tried using it on a open area or where signal is great? Or try using LTE when calling. Or that must be your network doing audio compression on phone calls?
Dude if it is a network problem don't you think the speech was also terrible when calling on ear and not with external speakers only?
LTE i not have but LTE is only for internet speed my friend, not for call quality. What i try are different simcards from different providers and call different users, the speaker has this noisy sound in the background on all cards with all callers...
Yes, i try different areas but it is not the provider, i have with the same provider at the same location with note 2 no probs, the sound from the external speaker of the note 2 are better at phone calls as from the one...
Only time I use loudspeaker in a phone call is if I'm on hold and don't want to hold the phone to my ear, so thankfully not a big deal.

I have this problem too if i do a selfmade video with the camera in a silent room and play it on the one...the noise is existent in all the time of that video. If i play it on the pc the noise is gone...
So i think it will be a problem for you too
Let's just hope it is a software problem buddy. As far as I know reviewers have tried it and never mentioned such problem. Are there any updates on your phone? Or have you tried flashing it with a different firmware version at the very least?
Also could you try the same through VOIP like skype and try also a sound recorder on your phone. And see if the problem persists.
No Dude, no new firmware to flash. And for now no rooting, that comes later when i know all is fine with the phone...
this happen with htc one x with original rom, with cm10 it not happens...I think its a drivers related :S

Can't turn them down low enough! The margin between off and first increment is too big. Might need a third party app to quieten further

Hello everybody,
i bought an used Z3c. Its in great condition, but the microphone doesnt work. This told me the seller.
Tested it, and when i change to Handfree speaking, the mic works, other hear my - not the best, but it works.
Will ich change to normal speaking or an app like sound recorder, the mic doesnt work.
Firmware is a t-mobile(german) branded phone with stock mashmallow, build 23.5.A.1.291 .
I switched of noise reduction, didnt help.
At the start i thought, "Ok mic defect, phone was cheap, buy new mic and change it." Now -mic do handsfree working-, im not sure if this will be the right way.
Any options to try before i change the hardware? Another stock firmware without branding? Other software?
Greetings Kullino
Correct me if I am wrong. But I recall that normal mode and hands free mode use two different mics. At least they do on my friend's his oneplus. So probably your mic for normal mode is busted

Friends... My note 8 mic stopped to work.
In some calls... I can ear the person who is calling but they cant ear me.
Have the latest software installed. Nougat.
Should i wait for oneui to came out in March for Portugal?
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
In my experience, I have had some issues like you describe, but I have found, in my case that they are most surely carrier-related, as they have happened since the days of my old beloved S3
Try using a different Cell Provider's Sim card and see if that works better. If it does then it is an issue with your Cell Provider, you woudl haev to contact them and ask them to resolve it.
Hi guys
I have a galaxy note 8 with a bad mic (the upper one) it just record static, but the lower one is working well... When I'm on a call or recording a video the audio is very bad due the defective microphone is used for noise suppression, anyone know how to disable the upper microphone? Or set the source for just the lower one?
