Did you know if someone is calling you, you can flip your phone around and it will mute the ringtone but it won't decline the call.
Hope this helps someone
Didn't know that. Thanks for the tip.
You guys need to read the manual and poke around the settings more.
Did you know if you flip it during a call it will activate the speaker?
Ah, all this fun, and much, much more

Yeh, and there are two tiny holes at the back of the phone, those are the microphones when you talk on loud speaker

Nice feature imho
I use the feature almost everey day, i get a lot of unknown callers
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA App
And also I like the fact that when you pick up the phone in your hand the ring volume decreases and doesn't bother others and also when the phone is in you pocket or purse it rings louder with each ring.
really like the HTC subtleties
This flipping thing actually IS a neat feature of HTC Sense. Has anyone experience with this behaviour on custom roms with Sense 3.0 (e.g. Virtuous). Does it still work?
Thx in advance.
(Just S-OFFed & rooted my stock 1.47.401, so I'm actually a little bit eager to wreak some more havoc! )

Does anyone know of any apps to fix the low audio output for watching videos. Music and call colume is fine for me...but I can barely make out the words on any video I play...even with the SRS enchancments on...I guess I'm looking for something to boost the audio output using any video player. I've tried "equalizer" but it didn't work at all in boosting the volume. Thanks.
Same problem here..except that the music isn't quite loud enough to me. Same problem of equalizer being useless. I made a topic about this in the general forum, but nothing was solved unfortunately

How is equalizer useless? I get a fairly significant boost. I put 100 and 300 at 12dB, 1000 at 10dB, 3000 at 8, and 10000 at 4. Make sure you enable it by pressing the power icon and selecting equalizer.
I will give it another shot with the presets you mentioned tomorrow at the gym. That's when I tend to watch movies...and the noises around drown out the audio...keeping my fingers crossed
It's useless because any boost that it may give is leveled out by something...probably the htc sound driver

Well you must not be doing it right or your phone is defective.
Same issue with low audio here. It depends what video player I use, the same applies to GPS navigation Copilot has very low volume, Sygic is reasonably ok. All applications are at the maximum volume.
I think that this issue needs to be fixed with update from HTC or we will need some application to boost the volume without too much distortion.
Even when listening to music trough headphones, volume is not as loud as i would like to have very often. Far cry from my HTC Diamond which felt twice as loud compared to Sensation.
Because I have alot of AVI files...and for some reason the sound cuts out after like two minutes of watching a video with the stock player(def an issue that needs to be fixed...but maybe for another day)....I have been using the app "Arc Media" to watch them...I tried the presets this morning suggested by Karnovarian...and it seemed to help some? Maybe I was just sub consciously hoping it did...or maybe it was because I was a couple of treadmills down from the big fan then yesterday. Either way, it was still lower then I would have liked...def a difference from my mytouch 4g I gave away to a family member.
Any other luck with "equilaizer" or other apps?

I mean NO disrespect..so please don't take it anyway. But there are like 10 of these threads. OP please do a search before starting threads like this that have been discussed a million times. It stagnates the forums if we keep discussing the same issues.
Low volume, dust under screen, loose buttons, dead pixels, data dropping issues<----all have like 10 threads a piece. Just a little help from me to you.

Since these issues are so frequently encountered, should we not keep them @ front page to keep awareness of the issues?
Doing a search in this forum brought up nothing on the issue....try one..
Anyway, I'm gonna give it till next week to see if volume+ gets working...
Thanks guys
Volume+ now works on the Sensation I'm using it and it really does make a difference. I'm worried now that the speakers explode or something lol.

Can you, or someone point me in the direction of the Volume + app... I searched around some. Couldn't find it :/
NVM, found it.
I just purchases Volume+ but it seems like it does not improve my speaker volume at all.
I tried increasing speaker volume to max but my ringtones still as soft.....
Anyone tested this apps on sensation and confirmed it is working?
Maybe i am missing something....

I tested it, works great. Though i only tested playing music and videos, no other sounds like ringtones and stuff. Also, play with the settings to find the best/ simplest.
All,
I find myself accidently clicking the answer button when my phone rings while in my pants. The button which is pushed for answer call seems to be in the direct aera of touch when grabing the phone. Does anybody have any suggestions how I can make the answer call button less likely to accidently be pushed?
Thanks,
Lance

Lol, bt seriously tho, its in his pants so I'm assuming the phone is locked, @ OP, so u wanna tell me that the answer thing moves itself to the circle to answer tha calls? Well if that's the case maybe we can trade, I might b able to train it how to do some stuff like cook or sum

YOU set the button to answer calls, change it back or use a different button

I know what he is talking about. I do it all the time too. When grabbing the phone from his pocket he touches the front of the screen which in turn will move the answer button into the ring and answer the phone. A good solution would be to have the ring and the call/hang up buttons farther from the ring but I am not sure how that could be done.
It's not that hard to grab the phone by the sides while in my pocket. Maybe you guys are wearing skinny jeans? No problem here in slacks, regular or slim cut jeans.
Are both speakers at the bottom of the g2x supposed to have music coming out of them? On mine it only comes out of the right one.

One is a microphone and one is a speaker.
Pro Tip: If you hold the phone upside down then the speaker will be at the top. This provides a more uplifting sound and also boosts the high notes somewhat.
It does take a little getting used to the inverted image on the screen but eventually the brain adjusts... then it just looks like everyone else's phone is upside down.

This is so weird. I just got my G2x today, I thought there was something wrong with it. And i come in "G2x General" and it's the first post on the page.
One mic and one speaker. Here is the illustration from the owner's manual.
A simple search would have found you the answer as this has been discussed many times already.

And leaving this thread with one question that has already been answered alone would have made good sense.
A reply that is both condescending and late serves no purpose.

all the veterans are always so fiesty. You are mixed with the masses now, it's gonna happen, just get used to it. I did. Dont let the new account fool you, I lost access to my old email and had to make a new one... time for change!
On to the actual topic. I am curious about this as well... I plan on taking the phone apart soon so it would be nice to know what to expect...
It's the mic for the camcorder.

Im sure you are wrong about it being a Mic for the camcorder, it is most likely for noise cancellation

Well, if I'm wrong, why does the recorded audio sound exactly the same if I completely cover the mic on the bottom edge of the phone (the one used for voice calls)?
Edit: I'm sure it's used for noise cancellation too, if that even works - but generally, it doesn't, cause every time I use the phone in a noisy area, the person on the other end can hear everything.

what your saying all the noise cancellation is true however I thought that I remember that if I covered up the mic on the bottom that it did make the video sound quiet, maybe I'm actually wrong

The loudspeaker in my phone (mytouch 4G slide) stopped working. Therefore the ringer doesn't work. Also I cannot listen to music or videos. Sound works fine through a headset though so I think it just the speaker that went bad or a loose connection. Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement speaker? Has anyone had a similar problem and got it fixed?
speaker is like 5$ on ebay and a quick replacement

I tried look it up on ebay but could not find a replacement speaker for the mytouch 4G slide. Do you know if there is a generic speaker I could use? Can you suggest what I should search for (part number, etc)? Any help is really appreciated.
yeah I just did a quick search and didn't see any right now either, I'm sure you could google it though. it is a strange design, held in with adhesive, you could open it up and just make sure it is making good contact. I don't know of a universal option as it is weird, but anything is possible

Hello,
same happened to me.
Finally I found out that the speaker is the same as many other HTC's, e.g. HTC Sensation.
Just search for "HTC Sensation speaker", or one of their spare parts: "EAS1S181E".
This is how it should look like.

Just be very careful when you solder in the new speaker. The proximity and light sensors are right next to one of the speaker pads and you can easily ruin one or both with an errant touch of the soldering iron.
Don't ask how I know....
The image I've posted is about the loudspeaker, it isn't necessary to solder anything, speaker isn't soldered, and is at the bottom of the phone. In fact, he only needs to remote the 2 bottom screws, not all.
This is the video I followed to replace my loudspeaker:
