[Q] Wired mic not working on AOSP ROMS - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

On my AT&T HOX (evita S-OFF, upgraded to 3.18 firmware), I cannot find an AOSP rom where the mic on my HTC or any other 3rd party wired headphones will work. It only will use the mic that is built into the phone itself. If I use any Sense-based rom, the wired headset mic works just fine. Would love to stay on AOSP for battery life and performance, but this is a showstopper when trying to talk hands free on business calls. Anyone have any hints as to what I can do to get the wired mic recognized? Or just why it won't work?
Thanks!

I see lots of reads, but nobody else is experiencing the same issue?

Have you only tried aosp ROMs with the 3.4 kernel? Or have you tried older aosp ROMs with the 3.0 kernel?

I'll load up an AOSP with a 3.0 kernel to try it. Is the wired mic working with your device? Which ROM? I am currently on ViperXL, which uses the 3.4 kernel, but it is Sense.

I'm currently on MagioRom, but I've used every aosp ROM available (apart from Xylon). I haven't used a wired headset in a while because mine broke, and I'm not sure how long ago that was, so I'm not sure whether I can confirm it worked for me on the 3.4 kernel. I know it's definitely worked for me on the 3.0 kernel.

I installed the CM 10.0 stable from last December that uses the 3.0 Kernel, and the wired microphone works. Great suggestion! I'll go back to the devs and see if they can understand what happened in 3.4 to kill that. Thanks!

The issue is already posted in the CM10.1 issue tracker, so the devs are already aware of this issue. I believe this is a recurring issue with AOSP ROMs using the 3.4 kernel, because I was using CM10.1 prior to that takedown that stopped nightlies for us and was not experiencing this issue.
Others will say that it works fine over bluetooth. That's the answer that I have been given a couple times, but not the answer that I was looking for myself.

[Q] A question about ICS roms

So I recently got Cyanogenmod 9 for my Sensation and I love it so much! However, I do in fact have one concern. Is there any way to fix the audio routing issue? Are there certain ICS Roms out there that don't have this issue? I flashed over from ARHD because of Bluetooth stack issues, that was good enough reason as it is. Now I have a whole-nother problem.
Every time I use an apparently that uses a microphone, the audio gets VERY quiet! Almost inaudible! I know that the Nightly CM builds currently have this issue, but are there any other stable ICS Tom's out there that don't have this issue? I love ICS a lot and don't want to abandon it. If I end up leaving CM until a stable build is released? Fine. But for now, I'd really appreciate some input to see if there is a way around all of this.
Thanks.
I use Ordroid with sense4 and I can confirm that the Mic works fine. Speaker is loud on speaker options. I don't have that issue. It's a Ics rom with sense4. It's a excellent rom however tethering does not work. Other than that It's fast and stable . Lots of customization options , aroma installer, and tweaks. I personally love it. You might want to try it if you can't find a fix.

Does Bluetooth work? How about wifi hotspots? I use Sixaxis controller ALOT and want to make sure I can keep it that way. So Ordroid goes back to the original Sense look?
Bluetooth works on Ordroid, so i suppose six axis should work pretty well without an issue. as for WiFi hotspot, yes it does work, although wired tether doesn't.
the look of sense on it is sense 4, latest sense by hTC...that can be found on the One series.

[Q] earbud mic not working

I flashed CM10 12/15 nightly 2 days ago, so far everything seems to be working fine except the mic on my earbud. It's a standard iPhone earbud with built-in mic, I was able to make calls with it when I was using stock HTC rom, but with CM10 the other end is not able to hear me. Any ideas?
Thank you!
i haven't using CM for a while, my guess is that it's probably an issue with the nightly. flash a newer one or find a more stable rom (cm10 nightlies arent meant to be stable).
another thing you could do is try an app called "SoundAbout" which fixes the headset routing.

[Q] List of ROMs with HDMI/MHL working

Has anyone had any luck tracking down a decent ROM (much preferably one as close to vanilla android as possible) that actually still has working MHL? I've done a good bit of searching through most of the individual ROM threads and it seems like this is something that is hardly ever mentioned. I realize that it's missing in CM, much to my sadness as that has been my best experience with a custom ROM thus far. need something that works with my appradio 2!
I'm on $droyd$'s jellybean nonsense build 6 right now and it's not bad, but still too HTC-y for my tastes (plus i'm on hboot 1.14.0004 right now so no wifi for me )

Dark jelly s edition supports OTG im using bubba kernel along with this... Will check the MHL availability and will post back...
Cheers
This interests me too. In my test of different ROMs I found that trick droid and viper work but make the phone freeze after the mhl cord is removed. Black bean, avatar, jellybam and codename lungo don't work with mhl. None of the awesome cm based ones are supposed to work with hdmi
I keep going back to nonsense which has since been closed. I only have version 4 and version 6 seems to be unavailable for download. Now after almost 5 months as my daily driver I started having Bluetooth issues and I have to load music via USB from the recovery since that must have been removed from it.

I have the same problems, freezing when disconecting mhl cord y trick droid and viper. And with trickdroid 10.x.x there is no output.
I also have opened thead in Q&A, to see if Torxx can help us with trickdroid 10.x.x

[Q] Which 4.2.2 Rom has Bluetooth working?

All,
Been on Synergy for the past 3 month and my flashing itch is coming back. I want to start trying 4.2.2...getting tired of TW. Has the 4.2.2 Roms gotten stable as a daily driver? I will predominantly using this for work so stability is key and driving, hence the bluetooth functionality.
I was roaming around the thread cyanogen, carbon and liquid and seem like they all have bluetooth issues?
Anybody on a current ROM that have both stability and working bluetooth?
Thanks for any opinion.
cant comment on bluetooth, but they are certainly stable and daily driver worthy.
hopefully someone else can chime in on the bluetooth specifically

I use cyberon voice commander for BT voice dialing. I have found on all ASOP roms, it works but the volume is low and there is a delay of up to 5 second in acknowledging the voice command.
Bluetooth works fine for me on a Carbon nightly....really like this ROM.

LiquisSmooth 2.5 is very stable. Been using it as a DD since January. Bluetooth works fine when I use it, which isn't much.
I have CM 10.1 RC5, and it's the most stable release they have. I believe they fixed the bluetooth a while ago. I only use it for audio streaming to my car, so I can't really comment on headsets or whatever else you might use it for.
But to my knowledge, bluetooth works. :good:

I hope this isn't including the GPE
I don't think GPE is technically considered AOSP but I'm not 100%.
The issue is found in CM, PA, AOKP, Gummy. Anything you see in the title that lists AOSP
The couple of GPE's I ran had working speakerphone, YMMV. GPE's include the HTC framework, so perhaps that's why.

CM's integrated GPE stuff into their rom... why not use the same thing for speakerphone...
