No Sound After Using Headphone Adapter - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I use the HTC adapter with my ATT Fuze to listen to music in my car. When I unplug the adapter to get out of the car, my speakerphone no longer works. If I get a call, it will vibrate but not ring. If I adjust the volume, I don't hear the indication beeps. However, if I make or receive a call, I can hear them through the regular speaker, and they can hear me.
I've tried adjusting the volume everywhere possible, adjusting the audio profile, changing the ringtone, etc, but the only way to fix it is to soft reset. Needless to say, it is very inconvenient to have to reset my phone each time I get out of my car.
I did search the forums but couldn't find any solution. Unlike these people:

my phone does not show the headphone icon indicating that it still thinks the headphones are plugged in. It also will not allow me to use the TouchFlo Audio Booster, further evidencing the fact that it knows the headphones aren't plugged in.
I had to replace my phone for a different reason, so I have verified this problem on two separate physical units. On both I tried cleaning out the USB jack and wiggling the connection around as suggested elsewhere on the forum, but neither solved the problem. In the process of getting my old phone ready to send back to ATT I restored my stock SPL and ROM and verified that the problem still existed. Other than the stock stuff, I have experienced this issue on EnergyROM 2.0 41609 and 41709, EnergyROM 3.0 'Magic' 20090709, and EnergyROM 3.0 'Mercury' 20090722.

I thought my Bluetooth stack may be causing the issue, so I flashed a new radio as well. I was originally using 1.14.25.35, and am now on 1.14.25.05, which NRGZ28 says is the best for his Mercury ROM. Still didn't fix it. I'm at a loss for what to do, and wonder if anybody else has come across a solution, or has any idea what the problem could be.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

im having same problem dude. Have you tried going to your audio recorder and recording yourself and then making a call. That helped get mine back the way its suppossed to be.

That worked. Very interesting... Does anybody have any idea why this might be the case? Is there a registry value somewhere that needs to be reset after I use the adapter?
NRG has a couple of little apps he includes with his ROMs, namely "Finger Menus OFF/ON" and "Notification Manager OFF/ON" that I assume just wrap up a registry value switch. Would it be possible to code the registry values I need into an app like this, so I can click a button and have my sound working again after I use the adapter? Any senior members willing to do this for me or guide me through the process?
And thanks for the tip Mr. Ewok.

The voice recorder trick doesn't work for me anymore for some reason. Anybody else have any suggestions?
Thanks,

Hardware
hey,
I had exactly the same problem with my Fuze. I've never flashed anything but the stock rom. I sent it to PPC techs because I had them repair another problem. They told me it didn't have anything to do with the speaker or cables, but they "heated up the board" and it started working. I'm wondering if there's a manufacturing flaw (like a cold solder) involved.
BTW PPC techs didn't charge me anything but shipping to repair it (as it was under their warranty, even though it wasn't their fault). Nice guys!

Problem with sound

I am running asergs' aku3.3.12 for some time and I was very happy. Yesterday something very strange must have happened. I can make calls normally and I hear everything very good, but I don't have any other sound any more, meaning I don't hear my phone incoming ring, I don't have sound with windows media or any other app. When I go to sound and notifications (settungs), all sounds are still there, but I can't hear them.
I can hear sounds with the earphones, not loud, but I can hear them!
Does anyone know this problem or have a solution? Thx in advance.
I think it's the hardware problem, you can hear the sound when connect with earphone, right?
I met this problem before and it's because the connector in prophet still think the earphone is connected although it's not actually.
I don't if I understand your problem exactly but this is my understanding, and try to send it back to prophet service department to repair it.

Hi,
I have the same problem. Just after installing version 12, I got this issue. I couldn't believe it was a hardware problem but, If I press at the back of the phone it starts working so now, without any doubt, I'm taking the qtek back to the shop where I bought it and see what they can do. I'll try to avoid the manual fix (replacing the speaker).

Phone problem, transmitting

Hi anyone and all,
My XDA II all of a sudden developed a problem in that although I can dial and hear people I had called, they can not hear me. I have toggled the mute button, performed a soft and hard reset and even installed the latest upgrade in an effort to resolve, but no joy.
Does anyone have any ideas on how i can fix my beloved XDAII?
have you tried
1. to use normal record to check if the mic is working?
2. cleaned the mic
phone can only hear callers
Yes, i have tired the record function, that works fine, sorry should have mentioned that earlier, i wonder if it is a component transmitter problem!

Very strange audio problems

I'm having a very strange audio problem with my Qtek 8310. I had a phone conversation a few hours ago which went fine. However, someone rang me up an hour ago, the ringtone went on as usual, but I couldn't hear anything from the speakers. I received a text message after that where the notification tone played as usual aswell. I then tried playing some audio/video files which had no sound either.
The people on the other end can't hear me either
Strangely enough, if I go under Settings:Sounds I can hear everything.
When I reboot the phone, there's a sweekish sound when the bootscreen comes up.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Im using "Windows Mobile 6 for Tornado Perfect English Edition V6", by the way
Thanks in advance
Hey, I have had this happen several times to me. Did you end up finding a solution?
I'm not sure if this is a WM6 specific issue, as I've switched from using the Qtek 8310 over to the HTC TyTN II, which, strangely enough, has the same problems at times. The only temporarily solution is to restart the phone and ring up the person who called you in the first place
Hey, I fixed my issue today.
The symptoms I had that I couldnt hear or speak to people when they rang, nor did system sounds work like dialing tones etc. I could only talk through a headset. But sound came out of the main speaker if i went into the control panel then to sounds and played the ringtones.
What I found is there is a little switch inside the plug for the headset, it must have become jammed. To fix it I straightened a paper clip and swirled it round the inside of the plughole (all sorts of furry things fell out!), then it started working. It has been good as gold so far. Give it a go and let me know if it works for you or not.

Unbearable background noise

I get complains almost daily that the background noise is overpowering when I'm on the phone. I basically can't be on the phone anywhere where there is any activity or it sounds so loud people ask me to call them back. I've tried a couple of different AudioPara3s but none have corrected my issue. I'm currently using RRE but had the same problem with RomeOS. Does anyone happen to know what I can do about this? If it is a setting I can change in AudioPara3, does anyone know which field(s) I should mess with?
Thanks.

Have you got "Microphone AGC" turned on? That's a technology that automatically screws up the volume of your voice when talking softly. It's nice when inside, but outside it also boosts background noise, like wind and traffic. Try turning it off, when in loud environments.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip. I checked Microphone AGC but it was off. I'm wondering if I just have a bad phone, since the problem is so bad I'm sure there would be a lot of other people complaining if it were common.
Bump in case someone knows something I can try with AudioPara3
Hi there,
I have the exact same problem...
It doesn't matter if i am inside or outside, the person in the other end hear backround noise over my voice... It is absolutely impossible to talk...
One person i talk to alot says my voice sounds almost distorted, like some gain or amplification is to high.
I would really like to know if someone has a solution to this issue?!
AGC is turned off..
Best regards
Andreas
Same issues here. Using the same phone, I have the problem when I'm running the Energy 6.5 Rom's, but not with the Energy 6.1 Rom's. Been searching and I'm stumped.
I did notice that the proram TouchPro Tweak has an Audio Boost that can only be set to "Medium" or "High". The program is written into most Rom's though so deleting it won't help.
Any thoughts?
Any help here would be very much appreciated, I've found nothing after many more hours of searching.
Are you guys sure you are using the correct rlphone.dll to match your radio?
It could be screwing with your "radio" functioning.
Yep, I did reflash my raido and reinstall my rilphone cab to make certain. The reply is still much appreciated!
Okay, I've had a bit of success.
- Microphone AGC - Enabled
- Used Total Commander and went to -> \plugins\registry\HKCU\Software\HTC\SOFTAGCData
- Max Level Gain : Changed Decimal Value from 10 -> 1
Background noise gone, but my voice is still very muffled.
If it wouldn't be too much of a bother, would someone running a 6.1 Rom be able to post up their values from all the registries under "SOFTAGCData"?
I would be very thankful.
*** SOLVED ***
Flashed back to a stock AT&T Rom and extracted all of the Audio files that may of been the cause.
Reflashed one of the Rom's that was giving me the issue, called the wife, problem still existed.
Dropped the AT&T Rom files in, placed a call, and Viola! Problem Solved!
Just extract these into the Windows dir (At your own risk, but they're just AT&T Stock files) -> Clicky

Low Bluetooth Volume Verizon 6875 Jawbone (will donate for help!)

I did search the forums but didn't see a fix or regeidt for this. I have a new Verizon xv6875 Touch Pro 2 (win 6.5). My Jawbone2 is mearly useless with this--the volume is so low that nobody onthe other can hear me (and I can't hear them). Voice Command volume is so low that when I hear the faint beep VC can't hear my command.
Does anyone have a regedit or cab file fix for this?
I know there are known issues getting caller ID via VC to the bluetooth headset and/or ringtone, but if you can fix those without a custom ROM flash, you're a god and I'll donate.
I'd be happy to donate just to get the bluetooth volume on the jawbone2 fixed.
I can't flash to a custom ROM because its a corporate device (though I can modify with cas and regedits)
Any help is deeply appreiated. I apologize if this has already been addressed, but I've searched and am unable to find anything. (I've tried resetting the jawbone and re-pairing the device. Hard reset the ROM last night.) I'd love it Jetware worked with this stack, but alas.
Lilmac, you out there? NRGZ28? Sleuth?? Help guys
How long u had your TP2, coz I have a Sprint one paired with a Jawbone and works as advertised. Try the Jawbone with another unit to eliminate the possibility of it being jacked. If another hard reset doesnt do it, I will install 20% loubder phone can, I cant attach it as my connection is shaky,email me ...and i will send it over...
Can u pair anything else with your TP?
Good luck dude
please e-mail it...
I think this is a known issue on the xv6875. Have done two hard resets, no other issues.
Please send the 20% booster. [email protected] THANKS!!!
Please send the 20% booster to [email protected] also. TIA
all you need is the tweaked audiopara3.csv on ppcgeeks site.
