Anyone using Heytell under ICS getting crackly audio? - HTC Sensation

Ever since I flashed ICS on my T-Mobile HTC Sensation, the audio both incoming and outgoing on HeyTell is real crackly. I don't have this issue with other apps, so I'm assuming it's the app itself, but I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem and might have a solution. Installing the app fresh and doing a Titanium restore for data doesn’t make a difference. Other HeyTell users I'm friends with using the iPhone version or running Gingerbread come through nice and clean.
I was running MegaDroid and now I’m running Virtuous Inquisition (Senseless version) with the required firmware updates. Minus this one annoyance, the phone and ROM run beautifully.

Bluetooth pairing issues with froyo and captivate

I'm wondering if anyone else has been experiencing pairing issues with froyo and bluetooth? My captivate will sometimes pair with my car audio system and sometimes it won't. When it does, it will sometimes only do so for a short period of time before the audio crackles out and does. The stereo and threw phone both show that there is a connection. I did not have this problem with eclair, I'm wondering if there is a fix, or if I can adb the bkuetooth.apk from eclair into froyo? I'm new to the world of android, so I'm not sure if this is even possible. I figured that maybe some of you developers might have a clue.

I am having the same problem. I restored my bluetooth pairings through tibu, so I think that may be the issue. I am going to print the build again and report my findings.
If you used Cognition, I know they used the bluez standard, which may be different from stock.

I used the Odin install I897UCJI6 for froyo, I essentially master cleared the phone to lay down the new os. I LOVE everything else about the froyo beta, as everything else is working properly. I managed to fix the MMS issues, by changing the APN info. It's just this one issue I'm having with bluetooth. I really would like to avoid returning to eclair because I find froyo much quicker, GPS issues resolved, etc etc. I just want my tunes, and if there is a way to fix the bluetooth without flashing back to eclair, I'm game. I'm going to either try the cognition, or see if I can get away with pushing bluetooth apk from eclair into froyo. Let me know if you are successful with a fix.

You should never restore bluetooth pairings with TiBu, or any other method. Always create them from scratch. Also, be sure you don't have any other bluetooth devices connected when you pair a new device. Could cause conflict.
Okay, so I attempted to push the bluetooth settings over from eclair, that was a no go and caused some serious issues with the phone. I ended up master clearing using the odin eclair and then flashed with the odin beta 5.5 for froyo. Issues appear to be resolved and I am uncertain as to whether or not the beta 5.5 uses different bt drivers than the beta 1 of froyo. I'm assuming so, because after installing beta 5.5 the bluetooth connects as seamlessly as it did in eclair. At any rate if you are continuing to have issues with the BT, I suggest flashing beta 5.5 after a master clear. It seems to have resolved my BT issues.

Are there any other settings I should not restore using TIBU?

I have Cognition's first release of the leaked Froyo, and had no issues pairing my Blueant headset up to it.
In the newer release of Cognition (beta4) they removed the bluez stuff. But my first build is working pretty darn well right now. I'll wait for the official 2.2 update before I flash anything else on the phone.
I reflashed last night and everything is working great! Make sure you don't restore any of the TIBU system files or you will experience problems.

im having a problem with my stereo bluetooth and the Cognition froyo. when i turn off my car it disconnects from my phone and my phone starts playing out of the loud speaker. before it would pause when i turned off my car. any one else having this problem/
Bluetooth with the leaked 2.2 was nothing short of a disaster. I loved everything else about 2.2, but restored to my nandroid backup of 2.1 because of bluetooth. It's a deal killer.
Look like I've restored my 2.1 BT pairings from TiBu to 2.2 as well and am having problems. Anyone know how I can clear those settings without having to reflash?
I'm new to android, where do apps keep their settings anyway?
Thanks!
Bluetooth issues
With 2.1 I had no major issues pairing with Ford Sync through bluetooth, but when I started flashing earlier Cog Beta's I started having issues. It would connect then disconnect and sometimes would say it's connected but when I try to make a call it's not, or the pairing would disappear altogether. Bluetooth is a must have in the truck and I ended up using Odin to flash back to stock, rooted, then flashed Cog's 2.1.7 and bluetooth worked again like it should. I have been sitting on the sidelines going crazy while everyone is flashing the latest and greatest and yesterday I couldn't stand it any longer. I flashed the latest from Cog and wiped the phone and I had absolutely NO ISSUES with bluetooth today.
It was mentioned earlier in this thread but I think the issue lies in my previous flashing of ROM's and not wiping out the bluetooth settings or trying to restore bluetooth pairings with TiBu. Not sure how to wipe out the settings without doing a master clear but maybe you can delete the pairings file in TiBu. Not sure though.
I ended up reflashing to fix my settings and I can confirm 2.1 settings messed me up.

I'm running the first Froyo leak DG got us and I have a Ford Focus with Sync. I haven't had problems with dropped connections or fuzzy phone calls. The streaming audio plays just fine, and pauses when I turn off the car. The only thing that's doesn't work is the 3.5mm plug for old school auxiliary input (this is well documented around the forum). It did however work on 2.1.

[Q] HTC Inspire, CM7 Stable, Voice to Text

Ok, I have searched and cannot find a resolution for this anywhere. When I switched from stock HTC Sense ROM on my HTC Inspire I lost my ability to talk to text. I have reflashed the ROM I am using, Cyanogen Mod 7 Stable, and that did not correct the issue. Is there some setting I have missed, or is it just something I lost the ability to do when I flashed to CM7 from Sense?
DId you dl the Voice Search app by google from market? If so, try it in a very quiet area. Mine will not work w/ a lot of background noise. It's a known issue that's being worked on.

Definite issue with BT media and ICS ROMs

FYI, there is an issue with pretty much all ICS ROMs and the BT stack included in them. I have a brand new, top of the line Jawbone BT that supports everything, works flawlessly in Cyanogen and non-ICS ROMs, but will barely work in ICS.
Basically, after a reboot, it connects and says Connected (no media), then switches to Connected. Everything works fine until I disconnect and reconnect again.
After that, it will work for only voice calls. Media will always go out the speaker. I have tried everything to fix it to no avail. The only resolution to get A2DP media streaming back is to reboot.
When it happens, the media checkbox is still there and checked, but it doesn't work. I switched back to HyperSensation (Cyanogen) and everything works as it is supposed to.
Apparently ICS bluetooth works fine for some BT headsets and not others. This also seems to be an ongoing problem for other phones as well, even non-ICS.
I am not well versed in reading the debug logs, but if anyone is interested I can post them here, provided they tell me which ones they want.
I'm having troubles to. My problem is I cannot start a call via the Bluetooth Dial button on my radio. It's as if the phone doesn't even recognize that you are pressing the button. Tried installing Vlingo, but the prompt doesn't even work anymore.
The old solution was to install the Voice_dialer.apk...but that doesn't seem to be compat either
I can confirm the issue with the virtuous ICS as well. I have bt stuff from Jawbones to BlueAnt's and all have the same issue. Prior to this was the issue of cutting out and now it's the off/on bt streaming. To "fix" the issue, is to reboot. Annoying yes. But ICS is still so sexy
I've got the same problem, ROM Elegancia ICS 1.0.6 and 1.1.0
After pairing with bluetooth headset, first time I play music everything is ok. after re-connecting, music controls works ok, but sound is thru phone's speakear not thru the headset.
After rebooting the phone the situation is the same- first connection everythings ok, another ones not.
Checked with SE MW600, Jabra extreme and car's bluetooth.
The problem occurs even with clear installation (before I restore backups).
Still can not find solution so I got back to GB.
So its not just me! I can confirm that my Beats Wireless acts exactly like described.. And with a reboot fixing it again!
I think the devs here might be able to fix it, but its properly not going to be an importent issue to fix.. Fingers crossed for a fix, or maybe the future leaks will have it done!

Vlingo has always been problematic for me... My solution (worked on ICS too) was to get it working on an older ROM (not sure which one anymore) then use titanium backup and back up APP+DATA on a ROM that it is working on. Then, restore APP+DATA on the new ROM.
The first time you hit the button on your headset it will ask you what app you want to use for voice dialing and give you Vlingo, Vlingo InCar, or Voice Search. Choose Vlingo and check the box to make it default and you are good to go.
Just make sure after you get it working on the new ROM to back it up again... then the next time you switch ROMs, restore whatever the latest backup is. I am not sure what it changes, but I have been through Cyanogen, all of the ARHD versions, all of the InsertCoin versions, and a few others (I can never make up my mind on ROMs) and this trick has worked in all of them.
IMPORTANT: Make sure in Titanium Backup to uncheck the option to restore system libraries in ROM (that can cause issues going between major versions of android), and make sure toenable the features in Titanium Backup for attempting to migrate data.
I also get the same issue when I try to connect my MW-600 with ARHD ICS 6.0.2.
Can anyone help?
You guys who just have to reboot your phone are getting off easy. When I lose Audio Streaming to my car head unit, I have to delete the device and re-pair it to my phone after a reboot.
Same here with mw600 on virtuous Inquisition 2.0.1. Only first connection plays music through headset.
I am sure that first 4.0.1 beta base was not affected. This bug came with 4.0.3

really??.. Im gonna try an old backup then.
Edit:
Backup was removed sadly.. :/ cant test it, but maybe someone else can?
Well, the ROMs are still there to download
With 4.0.1 I was on radio version 10.59. I am not expert on radios and RILs but I guess these things affect also BT performance. Right?

I reverted back to the virtuous 4.0.1 build from the most recent (having the new fw and radio) and has fixed the Bluetooth issue. Now I just have to live with messed up signal bars and a browser that randomly exits.

Hi,
Reporting this BT issue for me (SGS 2 with ICS 4.0.3, XXLP2 that can be found on XDA, originally from samfirmware):
I try to send files from my laptop to my SGS 2, 1 at a time and the transfer will suddendly halt some of the way through and ICS looks like it's rebooting but it's actually not, I mean not a full proper reboot; the phone does not switch off, the boot anim plays as if restarting, first BT is off then the icon come up in the top bar...
Hopefully, the Simple & Clean, ICS version, is round the corner ;o)

using arhd 6.1.1 here on sensation XE with SE mw600 headset, no issues, calls and media working as normal
BT connectivity seems to be fixed in the latest leaked ICS + Sense RUU.
Is the sensation supposed to support any other remote control features than pause and play over BT?
I can confirm that on my Galaxy s2 using the 'official' ICS rom released yesterday still causes my phone to reboot.
This happens when bluetooth is paired with my car stereo and streaming audio or voice calls. It causes a reboot, usually happens after 10-15 minutes.
Never happened on gingerbread of any version. And has happened on all versions of ICS leading up to 'official' release.
I can confirm that bluetooth will cut off and be off completely quite randomly while listening to music or Pandora.
Only a reboot gets bluetooth to turn back on.
I have experienced this on two Motorola S9-HD headsets on various ICS roms

Random freeze and restart

This happens when using the Music player application. I'll minimize to a different page (Browser, Camera, Messaging) and as soon as I bring up the Music player application I get a loud beep noise and a freeze with a restart a few seconds after. This has happened at least 3 times in the last month since I installed a new ROM, was actually happening before too)

ive been having the same issue i havent found a solution for this yet, ive searched everywhere. Whats really buggin me though is that set my phone back to stock by running RUU and after flashing latest firmware and the latest paranoid android ROM, i still have the issue.

Microphone failure

Hello fellows,
*
I have been using my RAZR HD for almost 6 months with no major issues to speak of. *Recently i decided to bite the bullet and unlock the bootloader and tried out the ROM, Rage HD v1.1, and i really enjoyed it. *But after a week i started having issues with my microphone. *First my mp3 recorder started giving me error messages when i attempt to record saying to close other apps that might be using the microphone. *Next phone calls stopped sending my voice, although i can hear the other side just fine. *Using a headset allows me to still use the phone for work and all but it is a real drag not being able to use my phone as a tuner for my cello like i used to. *i have since wiped the device and tried the Slimbean ROM, and the voice search worked once in 'google now' but is currently dysfunctional.
*
Has anyone else heard of this issue and would anyone know how i can solve it? *I tried stock rom again with none of my apps installed and still no microphone.
*
Thank you,
Random_Khaos

this is a known issue on some 4.2 AOSP-based roms
try using a blur-based rom for now, or try reverting to the stock rom to see if it solves the issue
I had similar issues with every 4.2 build I tried decided to give it a rest ftm and flashed back to stock firmware 4.1.2 from what I gathered it was known issue and would not be resolved until custom kernel was completed

Known issue. Along with camcorder. Bluetooth audio seems a bit flaky too.
