Hi,
Is anybody else experiencing issues with losing sound on their phone? I have been experiencing this on a number of different roms and initially put it down to an incompatible radio, but I have sinced flashed back to one of Dutty's roms (including radio) and it happened again. I have now flashed back to the stock bootloader and HTC rom and it has happened again!
I am at a bit of a loss now - am in the process of hard resetting my phone to see if it happens on a bare device as I had a number of apps installed although none of them had caused this problem before that I am aware.
Would be interesting to know if anyone else is getting this - don't know if its possible that any of the recent radio/rom releases could have done something permanently damaging to cause this. Will be sending mine back to HTC if it happens again, unless someone identifies a fix?!?
Cheers!

happened to me yesterday. i had to hard reset and my phone still isn't customized 24hrs later.
Do you remember what apps you had installed?
I'm starting to think all of this has something to do with MSVC.
well i have consistently been using version 19209 whilst having these problems. Going to try 17913 again and see how that goes.
Mine too
I've been getting this alot lately, too. I think it's either MS VC or S2U2 1.01, or a combination of them.
I've done the same thing, flashed multiple ROMS and radios, but I've stayed in the WM6.1 family. I was running Confused Stu's Vista 1.2 forever and it suddenly started doing that - loosing sound. I went to 1.3 and then over to a Dutty build, and have now settled on L26_WM6.1_PROV4_(3.51.502.0_WWE)_Multimedia... This time I went slow and only loaded a few apps at a time. I thought it was Calendar+... But I don't have that on here yet.
It seems like it ran fine until I put S2U2 on here, but like I say, I use MS VC to announce everything so maybe it's some action there that didn't happen until after I put s2u2 on there, or maybe coincidence.
I wonder if anyone else is seeing this? I think I'll start over without S2U2 - even tho it rocks! - and chill a week.
Do you use S2U2? Do you use Caller ID in S2U2? How about slide 2 answer, slide 2 end key options? What about blank screen on talk option?
Thanks,
H
s2u2 v1.01 could be the culprit as i have been using it. After slowly reloading apps this morning sound had gone again, and one of the last to go on was s2u2. I don't think MSVC is the problem as it has never done it before plus its cooked into a lot of new roms, whereas s2u2 isn't. Am going to uninstall s2u2 and see what happens. It was one of the last things I put on and sound had been stable before that.
Im getting this issue as well, what radio are you guys running just out of interest, im running duttys 6.1 build 19199 with radio 1.65.14.06
I haved the same problem and resolve it by flash ing TNT 19202 Series PRO with radio 1.65.14.06. Best regards.
Well, the issue came back on the stock rom when I bit the bullet and installed a slightly older version of S2U2 (0.99p)!
I have now reflashed Hard-SPL and the latest Dutty Rom (with MSVC included) and have resisted putting S2U2 on and so far, so good!!
Hey, Zaf, do you run S2U2 or MS VC?
I flashed back to the AT&T Tilt stock ROM (downloaded from HTC web site, incl the radio) and reloaded S2U2 1.01 and MS VC. I lost sound within a couple of hours.
I did a hard reset and have not installed EITHER... I plan to run for a day like this, then put MS VC back on for the weekend, and then S2U2 after that.
I think it's S2U2 and I think it's been around since .99p. But I think 1.01 is worse than .99p or 1.0.
Well, at least we're narrowing down the variables!
Hey, everyone - watch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=390977
for a similar discussion.
I flashed TNT 19202 Pro thus morning and the sound died few hours later again... Don't use S2U2. I posted more here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2207600&postcount=18
I have lost sound 3 times, it is only through the speaker though, my bluetooth headset continues to work. Once I flashed a new rom to fix it, the other time it fixed itself over a few hours. The third time is happening now!
I have never used S2U so it can't be that. Have been using Dutty's roms, my radio is currently 1.58.16.27.
are we talking about sound in calls, if so i have been experiencing calls dropping and other people can hear me fine but then it suddenly goes quiet for the other caller and they can barely hear me? is this a fault with my kaiser or to do with flashing with custom ROMs.
I think we need to be very clear here what the symptoms are of a specific problem.
My symptoms were that sound would initially be ok after flashing a new ROM (whether it had MSVC cooked in or not) and then I would go through the process of installing my 'regular' apps which has always included S2U2.
Then, at some point after doing this, all sound would disappear - from the device and also during calls (interestingly, during calls, the other party could not hear me either).
I cannot explain for one moment the issues that people who don't use MSVC/S2U2 - some of these might be explainable by radio issues but I am not an expert by any means so would not be prepared to blame that!
All I know for certain is that up until recently I could use MSVC 1.6 build 17913 alongside S2U2 0.99 with NO issues at all - this is why I think that MSVC 19209 combined with S2U2 is the reason.
One other thing, I have not tried S2U2 on its own, without using MSVC, mainly because I am fed up with flashing! Perhaps someone else could confirm or deny if this has caused problems?!?
Yes, my symptoms are EXACTLY as the captain describes in his post... Everything fine for a little while after flashing, but soon after I get all my apps reloaded I call someone, or someone calls me, and there is no sound. No audio at all from the speaker, bluetooth, or in-call speaker. The caller can't hear me, either. I have to soft reset or power cycle to get sound back but it doesn't last long.
All day I've run with the AT&T stock tilt ROM from HTC's web site, still hard SPL'd, and I did not load MSVC, S2U2, or HTC Home yet.
R 1.27.14.09
G 22.45.88.07H
D 1.62.00.00
I have run all day with no sound problems. I am now about to plunge and I think I'll put MSVC on there first and run another day, only because on a whole it's cooler than S2U2. Lets see what tomorrow brings.
Hey, I just found this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=391262
I am using an older build of MSVC... I grabbed the latest build and will give that a shot first. What build are you using? I WAS using 1.6.17913 but aparently it is old. I just grabbed 1.6.19209
Its interesting that you're seeing the issue with the older build of MSVC as I never had it with that build, although I can't remember if I used that build with the latest version of S2U2.
My phone has gone a whole night now with no issues without S2U2 installed, so I think that proves there is a link. Not sure if I can be bothered trying S2U2 without MSVC as, like you, I prefer having MSVC over S2U2.
What is also interesting is that there has not been much (one post I think) mention of this on the S2U2 thread. I may bring it up...
The trouble is, in 6 weeks of trying to deal with the problem by re-flashing ROMs and radios, I would still have the issue. Even though I never install MSVC nor S2U2. I even had the problem on a "clean" setup - just the ROM, I setup Internet connection, ActiveSync wireless Exchange and Note2Self - that's it nothing else. And I would lose sound within 3 to 20 hours with this setup. That's the cleanest setup I could get - I don't need my phone if I don't have Note2Self )
Just saw another of the symptoms... Another thing it would do would be to just crash after a call. So hitting END leaves the screen stuck with whatever's on it, and no way to get off that dialer screen. OK doesn't work, though when I push my VC button I hear it beep. This just happened after a call.
Anyway, I did a power cycle and it's back now. But I do not have S2U2 on here, though the MS VC lady is getting a real workout today... Anyway, sergeb will still tell us that neither app matters, anyway.
Uggh. Still resisting urge to put S2U2 on here.

Ok, I'm posting this in its own thread as people seem to have missed my post earlier today as it got buried in the Crossbow Reloaded 1.7 thread:
I've uploaded a test rebuild (couldn't sleep last night and was up early this morning). This is version 1.7.1 . The differences to 1.7 are:
A lot of the compression I did in 1.7 has been removed
Adobe Reader Removed due to the compression on other things making the rom too big
AltTab added and is mapped to the Comm key (this should fix the problem with Voice command people complained about).
Now built with the Core Kitchen
A few other things that I don't remember now
People that have had the dialpad issues in the 1.7 release are what this is really aimed at. If 1.7 was working for you, then stick with that version (unless you need to have a flash "fix" ). I've flashed 1.7.1 to my phone and so far it seems fine, but I really haven't tested it much, so consider this a public Beta. [Edit... Been on my device all day today and so far no issues that I've seen, but then 1.7 was fine for me too...]
I reserve the right to pull this off of RapidShare if I find something I don't like or if others find the keypad issue still exists (I'll post if I do this). Please do NOT MIRROR this without my permission as this is NOT an official release but one I'm trying to see if it fixes the issues with 1.7 that some have had.
Download Link:
Crossbow Reloaded 1.7.1
Please post feedback in this thread. I want to see if the keypad issue is gone now (mainly).
.
The new version is brilliant. I'm loving it so far.
Thanks man.
Does it Have Pocket Outlook?
If it doesn't how do I add it back. Ta, Rin.
Wise choice with the kitchen lol
Thx for mentioning. It makes me proud to hear/read that
I hope it didn't gave you any more trouble.
Did you already started to modify it not to use default install ? Cos if you didn't i'd suggest to wait a day at most ..i am trying to rebuild it. That thing bothers me too.
Running smooth!
I really liked the reloaded 1.5, was running the reloaded 1.7 version, liked it a lot exept the comm button and some OS stalls.
Flashing the 1.7.1 version now and will let you know how it's going in this threath. Also curiuos how the core kitchen is doing
After 30 minutes flashing I killed the shelltool. Since the phone seems stuck I gave it a soft reset and it booted with WM6 splash screen referring to farias rom. Gave it a factory reset and it seems working. Don't have acrobat so I asume it's the 1.7.1 version. Will start working on it now.
Weatherpanel, cybercom voice dialing, tomtom all running smooth. Some little tweaks (I changed under HKLM\SoftwareMicrosoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings the key "Bitpool" and MaxSupportedBitPool to "40" decimal for my Jabra 620) and no problems sofar. Now do some VOIP settings. It never worked, now it's time to get it working on my private asterisk
Ok, working on with the new Beta rom I had some stalls (Three). Green light blinking only no responsive power button. After a reset I repeated my actions before the stalls only I couldn't reproduce it. Since about twelve hours of usage no problems
Mirror the download, please
Can someone mirror the download to some where else? Rapidshare is SUCK.
Flashed it 30 minutes age, installing soft right now, and everything seems to be ok. I had problems with dial pad in 1.7, but in this its ok. Will post in case of any issues

Thanks for that mirror, but nobody else mirror this for now. I'll wait a day or so for reports of problems then decide if its the final version.
If you flash this and it works fine, please post that. If there are problems with the rom, please post those.
testing new version... no probls found...
Same here, just flashed it and testing now. So far the dialpad issue looks to be resolved. Not certain yet, will post problems that occur.
Nice rom
fast and easy to use
BUT...
I think i have a pb with my battery
lose 5% by hour ... is it normal?
ps : but all is perfect
I just had time to come back to XDA since I loaded CBR 1.5.
I have had the dialpad issues in 1.5 and thought it was just additional software I added. The device didn't lock up and all other functions worked.
The solution I found that worked was to pull the battery for one minute, then do a soft reset once it booted up.
Will load 1.7.1 tonight.
Thanks and keep up the good work!!!

You had dialpad issues with 1.5??? Nobody has ever reported that (that I remember), and 1.7.1 is directly built off of 1.5 (thats before I used compression or anything. 1.7.1 does use compression on a few things, but very minimal compared to what I did with 1.7). While there were definetly dial pad issues in 1.7, I think if you did have dialpad issues in 1.5, it truely was due to 3rd party apps, or tweaks on your phone.
Please report back how 1.7.1 works for you. Overall I'm happy with it, but I felt 1.7 was actually a faster rom than this one (there are times this one feels slightly slugish in places and I may have to turn on overclocking (where I never considered overclocking 1.7)).
So far 1.7.1 is looking good (but so did 1.7 for about 24 hours). I may make this an official release as is if I don't hear anything before tomorrow evening.

I am running version 1.7 but the battery life on this build is superb. Today I only made one call, left push E-Mail on a turned WiFi on and off a few times. After 13 hours I was down to 98% ! This is with a one month old battery.
How old is your battery ? Mine started to fail after 14 months.
i have not had any problems yet. It's great! will let you know a few days if I ran into any problems.
Voice command issue is it gone?
Hi mfrazzz,
Thanks again for another new version.In the previous version I reported one issue with voice command. Is that resolved in this version.
Issue was the voice command could not be activated using bluetooth headset. I have seen the keypad issue in 1.7 and sometime few error messages as well.

There was no issue with Voice Command and BlueTooth headset in 1.7 that I know of. I have a Plantronics Voyager 510 BT headset and a Bluespoon Spider stereo (A2DP) BT headset, and both pair up fine, and both control Voice Command fine for me. I know others using 1.7 and BT headsets worked fine with Voice Command for them also. It could be an issue with your headset and WM6, 3rd party software, or something else.
The only Voice Command issue I know of in 1.7 was that there was a button mapped by default that wouldn't work properly. I fixed that so that the Voice button (Button 4, upper right side of phone) now maps to AltTab app. AFter you install Voice Command it will map to your Messages button (button 1), but thats how Microsoft installs it, not my doing. You can then redo the buttons in Settings > Buttons and you are good to go (although I really like AltTab now, so I left it on Button 4 and only use Voice Command via my BT headset).
i had problems with 1.7...in that i the dialpad keys disappeared after first flash. i did a clear storage (1234, etc) and the dialpad came up. flashed this version (downgraded to official t-mobile 2.26, as I always do first) and i don't seem to have the same problem. everything was in working order the first time around. the rom actually feels a bit faster than 1.7. thx.

I'm having this problem and have seen several others with same. When trying to use VC, get the "..have encountered a problem, try restarting" error. I fixed this problem with registry corrections before but the required Keys are not setup when installing under WM5 or lower. Just having this problem with WM6 (reloaded 1.7.1). Any ideas?

What else do you have loaded on your phone(s) that have this issue. I use VC on all WM6 and WM5 roms that I've run (and ones I've cooked, like the Crossbow Reloaded ones you mentioned) and have never had this error and I've never tweaked around registry settings. I just install the cab and it works...
Are you installing VC 1.6 US?
With all the WM6 roms i've used (not as many as some but i'm new here) I haven't had an issue with VC 1.6 US either.
don't think it's a definite answer, but i did have this problem in the past when i installed voice command on my memory card rather than on phone memory. sometimes during loadup after a soft reset i would get that error...think it's because it takes longer to load from the card and voice command is setup to run right away (always in the background)...
if it's installed on the phone memory...dunno...sorry
I run VC 1.6 US and have never had a problem with it. I always install it in main memory.
I give..
Going back to WM5 Molski. To answer some of the post..
It's VC 1.6
No other software loaded..Fresh flash.
Installed to device, not storage *only option offered for install location*.
Get a message during device install: (...recommend installing to main memory. Do you still want to install to "."...) I answer Yes because it just aborts install to say No.
Thanks for the replies guys..
<--[Totally Screwed]
OK, now I have no sound from the speakers and Mic not working. While in Phone mode, the speaker button stays in the On position and won't turn off. Got the old Voice Command registry settings in place but it seems the new problem is the culprit. Going to start a new thread with new problem unless someone has any ideas..
Closing out
Back up and functioning on Molski 3.3 Crossbow. From what I can tell, during the WM 6 load, the speaker phone option became stuck in the On position but the speakers and Mic were not functioning. Voice Command seemed to know there was a problem and gave the "..restart VC.." message. After re-flashing Molski (a few times, still no joy), I flashed with the wired earbud/Mic connected. After flash and phone restart, I removed the headset while in phone mode. Speaker button reset to normal, phone speakers/mic started working again. Reloaded Voice Command and all worked.
aaahh the joys of PDAdome.. Where else can you get the thrill of accomplishment by getting back to the same friggin place
Thanks again for the replies all..
I have actually had this error a LOT with various ROMS, all were based on the Faria real thing base I believe. I'm not sure if that's relevant or not. At first it would just pop up randomly. Sometimes I could restart it and it would be fine, others it would never restart until I soft reset. The errors tended to get more and more frequent until it finally stopped working completely. Even on a reset it would come up right away. I hard reset that particular rom and it was fine for awhile but the issue returned and much more quickly. I never really installed any software onto the phone that ran in the background so I'm really at a loss as to what causes it. The last couple of ROMs I used didn't have VC and I never bothered to reinstall it because it kept having errors anyways. I am about to reflash yet again so I guess I'll put it in if it's not already there and see how it goes.
Give Molski a try..

I didn't have any problems with his roms (..and went back to it with no probs). Only started having problems after I tried the Faria WM6. If the Molski works for you let me know. We'll give Faria a nudge.. Good Luck!
VC issues I've run across
I've tried pretty much every WM6 rom out there.... and cooked some of my own using the Pandora Kitchen.... and it seems that VC 1.6 decides to ignore my bluetooth activation button on some roms... all incoming calls and texts and reminders get announced as expected and the handsfree works great, but I can't push the headset button and get VC to wakeup.... Tried disabling VC and then re-enabling it, repairing the bluetooth, removing and then readding VC... nothing would fix it.... reflash with a different rom and presto! VC works!
At one point I had a strange issue with the bluetooth microphone.... VC would work fine (I'd ask "what time is it" and it would tell me the time) but when I was in a call, no one could here me.... I ended up enabling and then disabling auto gain control... wallah, mic works again.... weirdness.... (don't think this was rom related)
Anyway... the roms that I've had this problem with was XDA Mobile 6 (release 1... relase 2 is kicking a$$) and I think NBD 7.1... never had a problem with a ny Pandora cooked roms.....
Anyway... my $.02... (I'll probably get change)
kudo's to the rom wizards that be...
never had a problem. Installed in a few different roms. works fine
installed to main memory.

I can't take credit for this and I can't give credit but Thank you...!
I've used this and has worked when VC w/n initiate via earpiece.
There's several threads on the specifics of this cab.
any one else getting it? unit goes in to standby and then wont wake up you have to soft reset.
ive been getting it frequently very anoying im using the big storage rom i dont rember who made it i can find out of some one wants to know
but is any one else having problems like me?
No problems here. I'm using the clean 1978 ROM...
I had it happen yesterday, running the stock AT&T ROM.
Hi
No problems here either.
It's worth remembering the phone wakes itself up about once an hour, although the display is dark so you will not see this happening.
If you have installed some software that doesn't handle this switching on very well and it crashes the phone, it will look the phone has died in standby, but it probably hasn't, it just looks that way.
I would advise a clean reset and not to install any programs, and see if it happens again. If it does your phone may be faulty, for example a memory problem that surfaces when the phone goes into a low power state.
Regards
Phil
Mine SOD'ed last night. I was using the phone, turned the screen off using the power button, then plugged it into my computer USB to charge. I was trying to do it one-handed and as you could imagine I was fiddling with the cable/phone for 30 seconds before I got the mini-usb plug into the phone. I watched to see the charging light come on but it didn't. I then tried to turn on the phone and realized I was SOD'ed. It only happens to me once every 1-2 weeks. My phone runs the stock Tilt ROM, but with lots of custom cabs installed, ie:
HTC Home 6 button
HTC Taskmanager 2.0 30995
Skype
Color Dot battery indicator
Schaps 10 Button Comm manager
PocketCM
Funambol 6.5.4
I push my phone all day long, surfing, ssh'ing into servers with putty, imap email, playing music etc, and I think if there was a bad memory issue Id see something other than an SOD. IMHO,theres a bug in the power management software.
SOD happened on my Tilt too. Im runnig the ATT rom. I had the same problem with the 8525 with the earlier ROM. The problem is IMAP email push. IF you use IMAP there is a chance you will get SOD once in a while. I changed all my emails to POP3 never had SOD since then.
I think you guys have to run the kaiser tweek to turn off the sleep mode in the registry. I had the SOD once....forgot to modify the registry via the kaisertweak app. 1st 2 options i think is what you have to modify.....that should fix you guys up.
Happened With Me too !!!
Now after using my at&t tilt flashed with HTC stock rom for 5 days, suddenly today my device suffered from a SOD.... had to soft-reset.... tried to figure out what went wrong but without any luck..... do any of u guys figured out the cause.... Kaiser Tweak only allows us to disable the sleep mode during call.....
kaiser falling sleep happens to me so frequently that I read all the posts with the key words KAISER FREEZE on xda-developers.
The only solution seems to power off and on again.
On modaco.com somebody posted a small applet which does automatically the power on-off for you.
Of course this does not remove the problem, just hide it...
Additionally I have tried 4 different WWE ROMS! from Att to HTC original ROMS to cooked Helmi aka 0.7.0 etc... No way to solve.
Please if modifying the registry can solve, can somebody post the link for kaiser tweaks and possibly the application?
Thanks

I think it might have something to do with Windows Live Maps program. This happend to me everytime I was using the program in the background. I upgraded the version and it stopped the problem I was having.

Same here... I upgraded to helmi_c's Tilt ROM and haven't had the problem since. Pretty much guarantted though, if you leave Live Search running in the background and your phone goes to sleep... it will not wake up with the stock ATT ROM (at least with the current version of Live Search).
Cheers!!
SOD has typical been associated with running programs off of a Storage card. I had tons of SOD problems with the early WM6 Hermes ROMs. So far I have only had SOD a few times on my Tilt (running austinsync's BigStorage ROM). I installed Google maps to my microSD and within 20 minutes had 3 SODs. I uninstalled it and they stoppped immediately (Live Search is way better anyway).
I would recommend installing any programs that you use heavily or leave running onto the main memory. Also, saving attachments to a storage card has been a known cause as well.
I think SOD issues will get better as more ROMs start coming out for the Kaiser (and the chefs keep cooking).
OK, this keeps happening to me with the AT&T ROM....today it happened with no programs running in the background, anybody figure out a solution yet?
Me too
well I've had this problem also while running my own cooked rom, however to be fair i had this problem in the early days of the hermes. I thought however that the hermes problem was related to activesync's push email and the data connection (i.e. switching between 3G and 2G alot making activesync trip out) That all said maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree?!
Oh just in case anyone as the time to investgate this problem, I do know the Toshiba G900 had alot of problems with SOD inwhich tosh releases a fix for...... maybe if someone was to look at what that fixed it could help us here? have a read here > www.my900.com
Kaiser won't power back up
My unit after reset won't either power up or down with the power button. Everything still functions.
I found that if I have the power charger connected it works fine, so I thought I had a weak battery. Got a new battery and same thing.
Don't know what's going on, but if you do a soft reset with the charger plugged in, it will reset fine.
Hope someone figures this out!
Be careful overconfiguring...

Hi
No problems here either.
It's worth remembering the phone wakes itself up about once an hour, although the display is dark so you will not see this happening.
If you have installed some software that doesn't handle this switching on very well and it crashes the phone, it will look the phone has died in standby, but it probably hasn't, it just looks that way.
I would advise a clean reset and not to install any programs, and see if it happens again. If it does your phone may be faulty, for example a memory problem that surfaces when the phone goes into a low power state.

This might be the case, but I tried calling my phone when it SOD'd and didn't get a ring (it rang on the phone I was calling from.) I bet the problem is installed programs conflicting somehow, maybe kaisertweak will fix it in the future.
I can't guess what causes it tho...
For now, I'm running Kyphur's XDA Live and it has yet to happen.

Mine SOD'ed last night. I was using the phone, turned the screen off using the power button, then plugged it into my computer USB to charge. I was trying to do it one-handed and as you could imagine I was fiddling with the cable/phone for 30 seconds before I got the mini-usb plug into the phone. I watched to see the charging light come on but it didn't. I then tried to turn on the phone and realized I was SOD'ed. It only happens to me once every 1-2 weeks. My phone runs the stock Tilt ROM, but with lots of custom cabs installed, ie:
HTC Home 6 button
HTC Taskmanager 2.0 30995
Skype
Color Dot battery indicator
Schaps 10 Button Comm manager
PocketCM
Funambol 6.5.4

I was running Kypher's Tilt XDA-Live v 1.0 (AWSOME) with several custom cabs including PocketCM and was getting the SOD every time. I wiped the phone and started adding all of my cabs one at a time and all of them are loaded back in except PocketCM and since then i have not seen a single SOD.

I've noticed that I get the SOD a LOT more when I have bluetooth active. Not sure if that's just coincidental but literally the only time I've noticed the SOD has been when I've had BT enabled.
Happens to me a few times a week very annoying.
Well, I don't do emails, use Windows live, have pocketCM, used my bluetooth, tried Google maps, or have any programs on my sd card (basically whatever you all mentioned above, I don't have or do!), and still get SOD. So I guess I start backtracking. Sigh...
tilt with xda Live
I've got an issue with sound disappearing in WM6.1. I'm running 3.03.405WWE (HTC one) and Radio 1.64.08.21 and after an amount of time (usually a couple of hours) the sound stops working, vibrate still functions but no audio alerts work.
Anyone got any thoughts?
Cheers
are you install SRS WOWhd??That happened to me too after i installed that application...but after i uninstalled that application,the sound is back
I thought SRS WOWhd crash on WM 6.1
that is what i think....anyone get this problem too....?
cheers
Nope, not installed... just plain vanilla HTC one...
Same thing
Same thing happenned with me with also windows 6
do you use wm 6 radio version or wm 6.1 radio version??
wm 6 radio did not match with wm 6.1,you must use radio for wm 6.1
Go into the Radio thread (stickied) and pulldown and install a radio for 6.1, that's what fixed mine.
There is something odd going on.. I just flashed a WM6.1 ROM I was playing around with and the sound has stopped working. I use the normal kitchen and split the OS.nbh files to ROM,OEM & SYS. After generating the new_OS.nb file I add the radio 1.64.nb file to form the new ROM. I've been using this combination for a few days now and the sound and phone have always worked - untill now. But I have added SRS WOW, so that might be the answer (when you try to run it - you get an error warning and it bombs out!)
As you will see from my first post, I am running a WM6.1 radio....
approx same thing happened to me today. i use alex's wm6.1 home beta edition and radio 1.64.08.21, obviously a wm6.1 radio version.
i switched it to silent, and then, after switching it back, no sound was availablwe, it stayed on silent. no HD WOW installed either.
i thought it has to do with alex's rom...
..I'm thinking the pain of WM6.1 is not worth it at the momement! I think I'll go back to WM6 and one of the 1.24 radios - at least until the bugs are sorted out by those more intelligent than me....
i installed alex's rom last night and havent had any sound since. going to flash a different rom in a few mins
Something different here, as the battery drained, the sound level noticeably dropped. I thought something screwy was going on but wasn't sure until I plugged it in with a podcast playing - BAM volume UP! Alex 6.1b2 - 1.64.06.04.
The same sound issue happened with me using Dutty's v4RTM with any radio. Sound would work for a while, then stop working alltogether. If someone called the phone, it would ring, however neither party could hear each other once connected. Also, the phone was not able to connect via USB to ActiveSync. Dutty's v3 worked just fine for me previously.
I ended up taking AllTheWay's suggestion and flashed Alex's Home ROM v5 and I haven't had an issue with the sound since.
I'm using an AT&T Tilt, so not sure if that makes any difference either.
I became a couple of weeks ago the happy owner of a HTC Cruise bought with a personalized WM 6.0 Orange RO firmware. Unfortunately I had the great disappointment to discover that from time to time, even two or three times a day, the sounds disappear, I mean all of them – the voice of the caller, alarms, notifications, no matter if the device is on or in stand by. That happens with no apparent reason, in different times, even while I am speaking with a caller – so, while I am talking with somebody, all of a sudden the phone's sounds disappear - I am speaking but I am not hearing the voice of my caller who keeps talking with me. On other occasions, my wife or other persons call me, but because the phone doesn’t ring in my pocket, I am unaware it's ringing and I don't know I have to pick it up and answer.
Whenever it happens and I notice the issue, I soft-reset the device and the sound returns, but after a few hours the problem reappears.
I must confess that I didn't use the original rom at all, as soon as I got it, I upgraded to a a newer rom, at that time deciding on a pdaviet 6.5 ROM, using the recommended radio. Thinking it might be a ROM problem, I hoped switching to an official firmware would solve the problem, so at the moment I am using the official 6.1 firmware (I think it comes with it's own radio). The issue remains.
The only thing that remained constant is the hard spl - could that have anything to do with it??
Any ideas?
I doubt it's Hard SPL issue... too many users (with very various ROMs), and not a common problem.
It could be some software, since problem is not constant. Does problem repeat if using "naked" ROM - meaning, no additional programs installed?
so simple
Great idea! It was so simple it didn't even cross my mind. And you are right, it could be an explanation, considering there is ton of installed programs. I'll do a clear storage and keep you posted.
thanks!
I had de same problem. I beleave it is the radio. Now I have V.1.59.42.15 and it works fine.
I'm not sure...

I have (and had) the same version of radio, because that's included in the official htc wm6.1 rom.
Right now I'm testing the pda without any additional software installed, and up to this point I haven't noticed the audio bug. I'll wait some more and see
Nice.
Check my list of installed programs.
I have NO audio, BT or GPS problems at all...
i have the same problem with wm 6.5 roms. when i install any 6.5 rom. my polaris goes to silent.. then i reinstall any 6.1 rom it works fine..
Try other WM 6.5 ROM... if you have to...
Same problem here, with 6.1 roms bepe's one an the oficial of movistar (here in spain).
And no other adicional programs instaled. (except TomTom)
