During a call, some people I talk to will complain that they hear their own echo when I have my imate in speakerphone mode (I don't hear it, but the other party does). This happened to me on the Wallaby running WM 2002, and it seems to happen with my imate running (of course) WM 2003. Sometimes, the echo goes away if I exit speakerphone mode and enter again (by the way, no echo when in normal mode). It also seems to happen more frequently if I enter speakerphone mode while the phone is dialing (before the other party picks up). Anybody run into this? If so, what is the fix?
First of all Ki, cross-posting around any bulletin board doesn't really motivate people to answer your threads. Keep it to one board - especially for people like me that use the "View Posts Since Last Visit" feature!
Second, I've never really noticed this problem, aside from the normal GSM echo I get when I have a shakey cell connection.
Sorry about that. Didn't mean to upset people. I replied explaining why this happened under the "General" Forum.
Hmmm. When I had the Wallaby, I though it was something with PPC 2002. But after seeing this happen with my imate, I figured someone should have run into this problem. Anybody?
I have the same problem!
I just bought a Siemans SX56 and upgraded to Windows Mobile 2003 and am having the same problem. Is it possible a radiostack version issue?
Have you solved your problem since?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi all,
Would appreciate help and comments on the following issues I have with my new XDA IIs. Have always been a Palm user but some issues that I face looks more than just software issues.
1. Reception - When my phone comes out from an area without phone reception, it does not get back connection until someone calls or sms. So no outgoing calls possible until someone calls me or sms me. It's a major pain in the neck.
2. Bluetooth - does not work with my Motorolla headset which worked brlilliantly with Nokia and Sony Ericsson. I can hear the other party but they hear everything else loud except my voice soft.
3. Hangs a lot or rather, sluggish at times
4. Does not cut off calls even when end call button on the handsfree set is pressed.
Can anyone help???
In my opinion why don't you Upgrade your ROM, there's lots of articles in this forum how to upgrade your handset.. "Search" Follow the instructions and I assume your device will work properly once for all
Get the latest v1.31 ROM update from O2 service center
As far as the hangs go, I would clean out every unnecessary thing that's in the \Windows\Startup folder. This is stuff that is automatically started up on a soft reset. Stuff like the "aPerSave..." file links for example should be moved somewhere else for safe keeping. I have a PDA2K, so I don't know if you have the same files as I do, but I imagine they are pretty siilar. The Pocket PC OS is limited to 32 running processes and out of the box the PDA2K is running close to that number already. I imagine the IIs is configured similarly. Starting more than 32 processes can cause others to shut down prematurely, causing hangs. So, getting rid of the unnecessary processes leaves more free for apps later on as you are using the device.
I had many unexplained hangups on my PDA2K until I cleaned out that Startup folder. Once I did that, the hangs vanished.
Answer to Question 4:
Unfortunately the button is not supposed to hang up. (I think it puts it in Mute mode?)
Hi there, I am using VJgrace latest 3.4 ROM, I realized that nowadays, sometimes I would not be able to receive incoming calls, my friends and relatives have complained that I do not pick up their calls, they even showed me the proof of their call logs. They said there were dialing tone. So one day, I tried for myself and true enough, at times, the phone will just light up from idle, but it will not say that there is an incoming calls. When this happen, I cannot make outgoing calls as well, when I try to dial someone, it just hang there.
Any solution? Is this a radio or ROM problem?
I have run the GSM update
I faced the same problem too. I thought my friends were joking. just called myself to confirm. true enough the phone lights up for a second or two then it goes back to sleep.
this is serious. am thinking of going back to WM 5
Really? Wow. That's a new one. I guess I haven't seen this. illi - would you really go *all* the way back to WM5? Are you saying this is a problem in every WM6 ROM you have installed? I'm surprised... I've never seen it on my phone. But I don't get too many calls during the day. And I reboot my phone every 2 or 3 days just for good measure.

i cant afford to loose calls. some friends had complained since a few months back. so i suspect its all WM6 ROMs not just vj's.
i think it happened when the device is syncing because i receive lots of emails. so at that time the gprs/edge is being use. THIS IS MY WILD GUESS ONLY!! I noticed it (the device awakes then back to sleep) once while on active sync and at that moment emails were being downloaded from my email server.
How can yew trouble shoot this problem?

Do you have this checkbox selected? I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but it's one thing I saw.

not too sure but will check next time i active sync. anyway i rarely sync with my pc so i doubt thats the problem - i noticed once while hooked to pc the phone awakens and then sleep. i use mail2web.com's microsoft exchange to sync my emails. i active sync only to do spring cleaning on my device and SD.
if karhoe subscribe to the same telco as me than i suspect its the operator. (hello karhoe you there;-))
I have this problem even when the phone is not connected to Active Sync, when i'm outside. The phone just light up, and then poof, gone. Well, I am using DiGi telco. But I don't have this problem when using Andot's PEE, don't have it when using 3.0 ROM, only recently when I started using 3.1, had this problem, after so long, then use 3.4, still have it
I had this issue with WM5.. now with WM6 I didn't found (yet) this issue. (using EA ROM)
This is a quote of one of my posts (Oct 7 2006, 18:43, modaco):
i think this is a software issue..
i have a spv c600 and have problem with the telephony part (and many other spv c600 users)
1. some times when somebody is calling me the phone does not announce in any way that i have a call.
2. other times when somebody is calling me the phone send automatically a busy tone to the caller and again does not announce me that somebody has called me.
3. and other times when somebody is calling me, the caller is announced by the robot that 'the user is in an uncovered area or has the phone turned off' or it divert it to voice mail (if the WM user has voice mail active. i have it off)
however, point 1 and 2 can be 'detected' by eye on call (phonesharpen). only detected (no answer, no nothing).
- in the first case, a window with caller information is displayed as long as the caller is calling you.
- in the second case, a window appears and disparears extremly fast
to bad that the phonesharpen does not log the detected calls . i have mailed them about this, but on answer..
i gues the problem is the native telephone application
so .. in conclusion WM smartphones are not recommended for people who want to use them as a phone.. who knows what important calls you miss.. i hope this will be fixed someday

@karhoe you should tell this to NiTroGeN and to VJgrace
Gentlemen, I suspect this issue is somehow connected to currently selected homescreen. I had this issue on WM6 build 18120 homescreen with VOIP plugin, but when I chose another one not containing VOIP info, this issue has gone

I tend to believe that it is caused by either of these problems:
1 - the telco (I'm subscribing to the same telco as karhoe)
2 - the voip plugin on the Homescreen
This is what I'll do: I shall deactivate the voip plugin. But I cant afford to unsubscribe from my current telco; it offers the cheapest unlimited data plan. LOL!!
I have a feeling that it is related to VOIP, I did configure my VoIP using the xml method, and then I also installed the VoIP fix button for communication manager. Now im using HTC Home screen and so far, so good
Sorry for posting here but it seems that experts spend their time here.
I have an '05 Acura TL. The phone will not initiate a call over the hands free if I dial from the phone. I have to dial the number, wait for the person to pick up, press the HF button on my steering wheel and say "Transfer". Then I can talk over the Bluetooth connection and speakers. There is no problem with incoming calls, only outgoing. I previously had a Samsung phone and this problem did not occur with that phone.
I am currently on new AT&T WM 6.1 ROM and had the same problem with the 6.0 ROM. I was hoping 6.1 would solve the problem but no luck.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
I have tried different radios.
Thanks in advance.

The problem was not that all the "smart people" hang out here, but rather that you have a very specific issue with a specific piece of hardware, and as such it is unlikely that there are many people who can answer your questions. Most "smart people" here also read the General Forum too.
Well...
...I'm not that smart but for as I ever had BT issues, and I can assure you, I've have plenty with my carkit, only one soft was able to fix all that for me and that was Jetware (http://www.jetwaremobile.com/) was able to solve it... Now it works like a charm,
the soft isn't free but you can download a trial first...
Hi all,
when I want to answer a call, I have to wait for 1-2 seconds until I can say hello etc.
If I press Answer and say something, other side cannot hear me at the beginning..
If I'm calling somebody, it's working correctly (after short vibrate I can speak with other side with no problems..)
does somebody have same problem? or is there a solution for it?
thanks for every response
Maybe it's M$ way of making sure the other party doesn't hear the vibrate in there ear, it must sound awful. Just a thought but have u tried turning off the vibrate on connect? I have and nobody has complained they can't hear me but then again i don't get that many calls.
vibrate on connect is working only when you call somebody, not when you're called...this option has nothing to do with that delay
I have the same issue. Not so many ppl are talking about this (i think this is the 2nd topic about it, and the first one had a short life-cycle) , so i assume this can be country specific (i'm also from slovakia and my provider is also orange). Btw, this small delay is also noticeable on my friends kaiser.
Same here
Hi Guys,
I'm also from Slovakia and the same issue here as well. I think flgm is right, this could be a country problem. Btw, who is your provider? Mine is Orange...
sorry, just noticed yours is Orange as well. So I think that means problem solved....
Hi guys..so, I've tested it with O2 provider and the other side said that it was all okay...so it looks like it's Orange-specific :-(
Yes, I had the same experience with T-Mobile, wonder why I didn't have that problem with my previous phones though.
so..we will wait for new radio fw..and maybe it will be fixed..
Yes, I think that should do it
as far as i can tell, this is a wm thing. happened on atom exec aswell
I am in Romania on Vodafone and I have the same problem. Press answer and count to 2 before the other side can hear me. Also, I have GPS lag.
Never happend on Kaiser.
hmm, hope there will be a reg fix for that
try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2738077&postcount=12
works well for me
I'm on Orange France.
The same happens on my Kaiser and my TouchPro.
Im on o2 i have the same problem, takes 1 to 2 seconds before other party can hear me
You could disable HTC's dialer and let WM dialer take over. You won't have the problem anymore.
(and also no more flip to mute or vibrate on connect)
Hi all,
I also encounter this issue with my TP, I'm from Holland and my TP has the original HTC rom and my provider is KPN. I don't think it's country related. It could be that not everyone has noticed this 2 second delay when answering a call. Hopefully this can be fixed with a radio update or some kind of tweak
Have the same issue (Vodafone, Holland). Though not many people complain about it, it is not more than 1 second.
It's the same thing for me and I'm in Sweden and on Telia, but I don't see that as a big problem though. Haven't had any complains yet..
I've tried to use Windows Dialer and there is no delay with it..BUT..the bluetooth icon is not showing when it's enabled and dialer screen is shown for about 2 second after the call has ended
PS: there is an application, that can vibrate when call is connected..http://htcs620.blogspot.com/2008/10/viborvanie.html (use google translator pls )
This has been an ongoing problem with my last two phones. First was an HTC Touch Pro, now an HTC Touch Pro2. It doesn't matter if I am on a stock or custom ROM or whatever.
I noticed that when I called people, especially when the headphone jack was plugged in (using the auxiliary port in my car speakers) that people would be unable to hear me for a good 5 to 30 seconds. I could hear them but they couldn't hear me. Eventually they'd be able to hear me.
I kept killing processes one by one until I narrowed it down. It was Microsoft Voice Command! I was really surprised because I use the program only for announcing who is calling me (very nice feature so I don't have to run to the phone if it's someone I don't care about). I don't use it for dialing or anything of the like.
I have Googled for hours and a few people have the same problem but the only fix appears to be "don't use Voice Command" which sucks. I guess what I'm asking is if either a) there's a way to fix MSVC so this doesn't happen or b) there's a program that announces who is calling you that I can use instead of MSVC.
MSVC was annoying anyway because when you click "mute ring" when someone is calling you it still repeats the name! Pretty stupid. So I guess I'd just like some sort of replacement program for announcing incoming calls. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried fixing this issue using this?

Thanks but that program did little more than allow me to change the volumes and speeds.
I have the same issue with my Blackstone. When I check the running process I find that Voice Command takes almost 100 pct and James everything else.
I also Need it to announce who is calling.
Yeah I'm essentially giving up on MSVC ever working correctly, so if anyone know of a program that just announces who is calling, that would work just great.

Microsoft_Voice_Command_v1.6.23562.cab
(for 6.5.x)

I am on 6.5 and your CAB is actually older than what I have cooked into the ROM... :\
MVC1.6 - no please! i am looking for a Voice activated app...
What good is that MVC1.6 if you have to Press a button and then say command? its called crap. Such a Program is already inbuilt in my WM6.
I am looking for a Voice program that keeps running in the background and its always in the listening mode and I can simply "SAY" these commands "as well".
1) WakeUp - wakes up my PPC
2) Sleep - PPC goes to Sleep mode (PPC is On though)
3) Programmed to wake me up at a particular time (by a beautiful Virtual Girl)
4) and Features of MVC1.6
is there anything like that for PPC WM6 ? CE5.2 version?
