[Q] Desire S Microphone Problem - HTC Desire S

Hi everyone,
I have a Desire S running Virtuous Unity.
Yesterday apparently the microphone spontaneously stopped working. Anyone on the other end of a call hears only static.
I tried the voice recorder app and all that is recorded is static.
Is there any way to try and diagnose this problem? I would like to check if it is a software issue before I s-on and reflash the stock rom in order to send it for repair.

For a start, I think you can check if its rom specific... Try flashing some other rom or revert to stock.. If problem persists most likely a hardware issue..

[Q] Anyone having issues with making calls?

I am not sure if this was an issue with before i was rooted or not because I didn't have it long before i rooted it. But when i try to place a call it doesn't go through and have to retry repeatedly and sometimes have to reboot and that usually doesnt help. I also miss calls and sometimes am not able to send a text.
Does this sound like a phone issue or a network issue?
I am using D!!la rom with the latest stable radio.
I bet network. Does it say network busy when trying to call out?

No it just beeps and disconnects.

I just reflashed the stock radio and seems to be working better now. Will post back if not.

Usually a reboot fixes that. It happened to me and rebooting fixed it.

Proximity and light sensor dont work????? Help please

Hey guys my proximity and light sensor no longer work. I'm now on the latest insertcoin Rom and have tried fixing permissions but no matter what ics Rom I try they still don't work.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
It's annoying taking a call and ending up in some random app, or accidentally ending the call

Has anyone else on your ROM had the same issues in the ROM thread?
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
Try install App that can test your sensor like AndroSensor and Android Sensor Box. Make sure it not function. If function but still not working on the phone call, may be have setting or tweak you make. If not function try reinstall the ROM see however it work if not work maybe the problem with the hardware.

Front camera ics

Is it right for the front camera to not work using an ics rom?

who said that? its working just fine but there is an issue, videocalls in skype are green regardless of camera chosen
If the quality is bad, check for dust. My front facing camera will degrade 40ish% (literally) after a week cause of dust build up.
Is won't work at all in camera mode, I don't no why it must just be mine. It hasn't worked with various roms. Should I re install the firmware? I don't really use it but its annoying to no it won't work, thanks

I don't have that issue, Skype with video calling works just fine for me. Maybe it is simply an unresolved bug on OP's ROM if he is rooted?

ICS Sense ROMS, specifically. I think AOSP ROMs don't have that problem.
OP, what do you mean by "not work"?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using XDA
I mean not work as in neither using camera or Skype etc. I have used sense roms and aosp. Currently I'm using dan sharpys stripped rom. But like I say it won't work in any rom. When I select it in camera I don't get any errors etc I just get a black screen, I have made sure its clean. Any help would be great!

Actually now, if I switch to it, it causes my phone to reboot?
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
In that case it could be a hardware problem. I've read about a few people having this problem (black front camera screen on a few ROMs and the camera app freezing) but there seems to be no concrete solution for it.
I'm having this problem too. Ever since I upgraded to ICS OTA my front camera has not worked in any application and usually causes the phone to freeze then reboot.
Glad I'm not the only one, just like worldofglass it happened when i upgraded to ics

Hi, i am also having that problem. Yesterday I noticed that my front camera won't work at all. This morning was working just fine, but I was in my car when I tried it, so I just tried it once. Few hours later it won't work again. Once when I tried to turn it on, phone restarted (but just once)... I can se settings, effects and all other buttons on screen, but everything other on screen is black. I have official ICS, and sense 3.6.
Please if anyone solve this problem or find out it's nature (hardware or software) let us others know.
Thnx!
Any answers for this? Habe tried various roms and even re flashing firm ware but still no front camera. My phone just freezes and force closes any app using the camera. Any help appreciated.

So it doesn't look like anyone's found a fix for this?
Like cartermg120, I've tried numerous ROMs (ARHD, LeeDroid, Elegance + CM 9 nightly) and re-flashed the firmware from HERE. Nothing has fixed it.
I'm wondering if anyone has tried to flash the latest official RUU (HERE)?
I suppose that would be a good way to check whether it's a H/W or S/W problem and if H/W, the phone could be returned for a warranty repair...
Front facing camera.
Me too, front facing camera has never worked since the ICS OTA update. Any suggestions?

Take off back cover take a cloth and clean where the front camera is? And OP sounds like a hardware issue more then anything else..

Install the latest OPEN GL DRIVER for ADRENO. It solved my green video issue.
Direct Link Here
I have that issue as well. I have been using Virtuous Inquisition rom and when selecting front camera on any app that uses capture, screen goes black. I can continue using the phone except the camera will not work, front or back. I have to reboot in order to be able to use the back camera.

I expect this has been tried, but when I installed cm9 my camera kept playing up, front and back. I wiped data and cache in camera apk, booted to recovery, fixed permissions wiped cache partition and dalvik cache. After a long reboot my camera worked fine. Worth a go if nothing else.

Voices sound like robots?

So with pretty much every ROM I flash, people sound tinny and robotic. I can understand them, but it's very tinny and I want good quality. Thru the headphones it sounds fine, just not the phone.
Might this be a hardware issue or is there some mod for this or is this a known issue at all?
I'm not a Sensation expert at all and so far searching hasn't given me the correct answer.
Right now I'm on Leedroid ICS ROM.
Now that's just plain weird.
If it is a software issue try backing up your current setup in recovery and then wipe all partitions except ad card then try to see if the problem persists.
Apart from that I can't suggest anything as I've never heard of that so I THINK it is a hardware issue. I would ask HTC about it and return the phone to stock and send it off.

Yes very strange, I agree I would return to stock and send back too.

The dev forum is super messy.
Can anyone link me to the shipped stock ROM that I can flash and then just do an OTA and maybe send it to HTC or see if the problem is still there?

[Q] call screen problem

Hey guys
I have a problem with my HTC sensation. Whenever someone calls me and I press green answer button but the screen says "incoming call" but I'm not able to pick it up and then the call ends.
I've contacted HTC but they're asking me to update my phone which is already updated with ics version 4.0.3
I've hard resetted my phone a lot of times but this trick seems to work for just one day.
I've heard someone saying to change the call screen by installing iphone lock screen app but its not the answer to this.
This phone is non rooted and is in its factory setting. Didn't messed with bootloader.
