Speaker And Mic Problem after Upgrading to WM6 - HTC Tornado

Hi all, i have a problem after upgrade my SPV C600 from WM5 to WM6.
after finish the upgrading, i could play my windows media player and could make a phone call without any problem.
after a while after i plug in my earpice to listen music, it went good as well.
after plug it off (earpiece not attached), when i play windows media player, i cant hear anything and i try to make a phone call also the same, no sounds came out from speaker and from loudspeaker as well. but when i plug in the earpice everything goes smoothly, meaning that i can listen music and communicate with others when make a phone call.
before that i tried to ensure whether i face the software or hardware problem by setting the ringtone (start->setting->sound). but the sound could come out from the speaker.
after that i guess that the speaker (hardware) has no problem.
as to play windows media player and setting ringtone are using the same speaker.
can anyone tell me whats happening with my phone?
i believe that it is software related problem.
thanks in advance

my advise is to reboot your phone at me this works...

i have tried to reboot and hard reset as well
but i can only listen music and make a phone call when i use my earpice

Please state which ROM you are using, we recommend Andot's PEE

I too have this exact problem any solution other than hard reset - dont need the pain of downloading resinstalling all my stuff - especially if its going to happen again.

Tornado mic and speaker for phone not working
It rings and plays sounds but it appears that the hardware microswitch that sets it to wired-headset mode is stuck. I cannot set it back. Also: it switched into this mode when I rebooted (soft). I did not add or remove a 2.5mm jack. Is there a registry setting to override the microswitch sensor and keep it out of headset mode?

Hi, this is my first post and hope helpfull everybody, possibly i was the same problem over ALL ROM (wm6 & wm6.1), searching for any solution (my specific trouble was that if i wanna listen music over any player: ( a.k.a windows media, pocket player, etc), i dont had a normal sound from the speaker, the sound was distorsioned, low... horrible, the only solution was insert the plug from the headset and out , but, power off the phone and... again, sucks really ), i return to a Wm5 Rom (imate) and solve the problem, but, tired for the slow performance of WM5, search for other rom, sacrify the music listen ( but i have a good mp3 player...), and, the same problem.
I found in the web (no remember the page) that the SRS plug-in anytimes cause troubles with the sound output, i try to install any ROM WITHOUT this complement, the ROM from Rickywatt Tornado Neo/shadow no have this plugin, install and ...Eureka, no more the issue, follow my instint, i install the SRS plug in, reboot and... the fuc%$& problem, hard reset and the phone witout the problem... conclusion, the SRS was the monster.
You can try this "method", most of rom carry or include from the "kitchen" this SRS dll, but installing the rom from Rickywatt (fast, clean... beautiful, only without the spanish lang, but, nothing is perfect...), can solve the issue, for me ,cors, i dont know for you (my phone is a HTC sda).
For the mic, really i dont have idea , any bad registry, entry, etc :-(, i never have this issue, good luck...

That's not controlled by software. Try plugging and unplugging a headset several times, twisting it around to clean the contacts. It should clean and close contact for built in speaker to work again. Think of a circuit. If its closed, you have built in speaker. If it opens and you have a headset pluged in, then audio flows thru the headset. It won't go back to speaker until that circuit is closed again. Its mecanical, not software, so you can't do anything with registry.

the same for me

well
the only fix i got was to disasemble and remove the swithch leaving its contacts as exposed as possible, the soldered a wire between 2 of the 3 connectors, hey presto all working, headset hole then filled with glue from glue gun
very rough but it worked....
as an after thought though see if youve updated your radio software, stranger things have happened if youve been into flashing with 3rd party roms

HELP!!!!! GF's Mini stuck in headset mode!!!

Well, I wouldn't be in as deep of a trouble if this were my phone... But I suggested the Mini to my GF.
Anyway, she was using headset earlier today and after she removed the headset, the phone is stuck in headset mode. Meaning no voice coming thru the phone's earpiece on both incoming and outgoing calls. She tried the headset again and voice is coming thru headset without problem, but once removed, it's still stuck. How do I get the phone out of headset mode please???? Anyone has similar problem before??? Please help!!!

hey hi ,
There are many ways of fixing this -
1)softreset
2)turn bluetooth off! if you are talking about bluetooth headset
3)where it says enable bluetooth headset on today screen - disable it
These might help you!

The socket has probably jammed internally, try insert pull out a few times making sure you pull sharply when removing, if this fails try inserting something slightly smaller and jiggling it about. I have also used a tiny squirt of WD40 which is like an easing oil for rusted or obstinate nuts/bolts/screws, also you can buy a spray called switchgear which is used for electronic components such as volume sliders/switches etc when they become sticky and operate intermittently. This is a well known problem on the xda 2.
Thanks guys, it's not BT and this is after many soft-reset I'll give WD-40 a shot. Thanks again!
I've got exactly the same problem here. My phone is bonded to a BT headset. Forgot to bring the headset and found that no sound, or extremely small volume, was coming out from the phone. Tried soft reset, deleting the bond etc. none of it works.
Would be interested in knowing what's the real underlying cause if anyone finds it out.
Hey Solitary, I'm in HK as well and I think it's a hardward rather than software issue. Coz. if I pull the headset, the normal clicking sounds can be heard from the phone, just not during voice calls, I think the earphone on the phone is somehow dead, looks to me like cold soldering
I'm calling O2 in the morning and demand an exchange, my GF only had this phone since 1/9 and besides this, on the unit we have, the voice quailty is also bad too
Hi, CL55,
You might want to read this:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/index.php?option=articles&task=viewarticle&artid=58&Itemid=3
It seems it is an old and common problem for smartphones.
I've also read in a Taiwan forum that they have got exactly the same problem in Taiwan for the Dopod818.
But I wonder if it is hardware related. My problem is that I'm stuck in a BT headset mode, and I'd never touched the hardware headset socket. So either I have a different problem than yours or else it seems it's more likely a software problem.
Anyway, do tell us if you manage to solve it.
Can you confirm if you can hear the clicking sound from the buildin speaker now? Only no voice from the earphone, or no clicking sound from the buildin speaker as well? I really suspect I have a different problem
Yes I can hear all other sounds from the speaker loud and clear, except for talking over the phone.
So it seems I've got a BT software (or my BT phone hardware) problem but you've got a Mini hardware problem.
I was listening to some music through my headphones on my jam and I got a call, so i pulled the headphones out of the jack. Once i did that no sound would come out of the speakers, not even after many soft resets. I could still hear sound when i put my headphones back in, but nothing when i took them out. Then i tried making a call and pulling the headphones out of the jack while in the call and that fixed it. It must put the hardware in some bad state if you pull headphones out when there's a call?
i had this problem to but i've fixed it! hard resets doesn't seem to work so i pulled the battery out for a night and my speaker was working again try it!

No sound, PLEASE HELP

Well i just switched from Core 2.0 to Faria's Rom kitchen and i no longer have any sound coming out of my phone. The volume is all the way up, and i was having the same problem with Core 2.0. Is there any way to fix this as now i cant make any calls or hear any of my music. Please HELP. The weird thing is though, that when i plug in my headphones sound works. But it seems my speakers are not working. If anyone knows how to fix this please help. When i make a phone call it wont allow me to turn on my speaker. Another Problem im having is my screen keeps turning all white after a while of no use if the keyboard is not slightly out. is there a way to fix this too.
Greets,
I think you need a softreset, if it doesnt help a hardreset, and if it doesnt help flash a OEM rom, and if it doesnt help than a service center.
Do let us know which of the option helped you.
Well when it wasnt working in Xplore 2.0 i switched to Faria's hoping it would work. so i went to the official T-Mobile 2.26 ROM and then to Faria's but it still doesnt work. My sound works sometimes when people call me but i cant hear them and they cant hear me when i pick up.
Alright its working, i really didnt do anything. I just put the headphones in and let a song play for a little, then in the middle of the song, at full volume i pulled the headphones out and now sound is working. Hopefully it will stay that way.
Yes it happens some time, thats y i said to softreset first.
I have the exact same problem. The phone speaker/mic don't work, it doesn't play music or audio files, but when the phone rings it plays that. Using a wired headset is the only way I can use the phone. (Bluetooth seems to have stopped working as well, no idea if it is related.) I have tried soft reset, downgrading to standard rom, upgrading to various other roms, nothing. I have also noticed when on a call, pressing the speaker phone button does nothing, like it is turned off. Any help is greatly appreciated, also anyone else with similar problems, please describe as well so as to give more information for a fix.
speaker problem with me too
Yea, I have the same problem with my MDA Vario. Just started happening, something to do with the headphone jack I think? Headphones work fine but the phone doesn't recognise that the headphones are out and continues to work as though they were in? Anyone have any ideas for a solution?

autodialing problem: HTC Stereo Converter with Microphone

hi folks,
i have a strange problem with the HTC Stereo Converter with Microphone from brando.hk
http://shop.brando.com.hk/prod_detail.php?prod_id=01946&dept_id=027&cat_id=0937
whenever i plug it in, use it with earphones listening to music after some minutes my diamond starts to call the last called person.
i don't klick on anything, it just starts to call "by itself".
cost me a lot of money to "autocall" a friend from a foreign country
anybody got the same problem/a solution for that problem?
using dutty's diamond rom 1.93WWE, radio: 1.00.25.07
additionally the sensorlock program
I had the same problem with my phone.
First I've tried to change the radio and rom but no use: still with the same problem.
Now I've changed the earphone/mic by another and now it's working fine.
I got same problem, how you solved it?
This is not so rare problem and it is due to stupid function of redialing after double click on active button on original headset. When you connect your adapter and 3,5mm headset then it is identified sometimes as doubleclick and starts redialing. This function is completly useless for me and is causing a lot of unwanted calls even if I do not have adapter connected( sometimes I just doubleclick active button by incident). I would be very happy if someone could tell me where can it be disabled in registry.

[Help] Headphones/ headset not detected

Hello,
A while ago my Z3 stopped detecting headphones at first and headsets later as well. I belive it was when I installed 5.X.X for the first time. Only ever used greek and UK general versions.
I tried entering safe mode, factory reset, reflash etc, did't even activate google or other accounts nor installed new apps (even disabled SmartConnect), but I still have no luck so far.
I tought it was problem with oxydation, since the contacts looked a bit whitish (yes I got it wet few times and forgot to blow out all the water from the jack). But I cleaned it a few times, and even ordered and used a set of DeOxit the other day. First the red and after the blue one (have green and yellow, but sup they are for other things). I plugged a headset and it was detected by the apps like SmartConnect and Music (aka Walkman).
But the next day when I tried it, there was no detection. The phone stayed with a rubber plug during the night and was not washed before the second test.
Using an app from the play store I'm able to manually route audio output/input to headset jack and it works perfectly. No cracks or interference when I swivel the plug - both recorded audio thru mic and output to left and right headphones.
I've read the mic pin is actually responsible to connection detection...so I belive if the mic works OK then the HW connection should be OK as well?
This leaves me with what I could do SW wise to fix it. Don't really want to send it for repair - it will go to Greece and probably get scratched by their perf service...
Anyone can help?

Strange Bluetooth issue

Hi you all, I have a non common bluetooth problem. My S6 is running Xtrestolite with android 6.0. My phone can connect BT to my cars, my earset and my soundbar to play music and it work well even on my earset. BUT, nothing for voice call, the call connect and silence for everyone. There is no voice at all, but BT is connected, and all infos on my cars radio like timer, mute and others work well ( okay mute cannot be more muted ). So I tried 1/8 headset for music it works, did not try yet one with a mic, but I'll do it ASAP. I tried to reprogram with odin default OS, with factory settings, and that way force all components to be re-write ( Bootloader, Radio , etc ), issue still present !!! Try to clean micro usb connector, nothing !! Try to clean audio jack, but wasn't really sure if it was well cleaned.
Do anybody here have an idea of what I could try, test or do to eliminates possibilities ??
I am thinking that maybe some corosion could be in the audiojack, somewhere and let the phone think that there is an audio jack connected, and then sent the voice to it...but how it could be tested before to try to open the phone to clean it properly and risk to damaged the LCD ???
Thank a lot for all of your advices
