Partial Fix to WM6 loosing sound after a call - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development

I'm usung Smart1 V1.3 ROM and all is great (the best one I've tried so far) but some have reported a bug where you loose all sound after a call. Some say the sound gets lost if the person you talked to hangs up the phone first, but in my case it happens no matter who hangs up first.
Well, I just discovered how to recover sound once you loose it after a phone call. When you are done using the phone, get back to the dialer and press several times the BACK ARROW on the keypad until the sound comes back. It works for me and I hope it works for you too.
I know it's a PITA, but until we find a permanent solution this should do it.
Cheers!

WM6 & WM6.1 Sound Problem.

hello
I have strange problem with ALL of WM 6 & WM 6.1 that i tested here. (+10)
My Device is i-mate Jamin G4.
the problem with Sound. the sound suddenly stop and dissapeare. after reading from and search i found only 1 solution for that, I should go to Settings>Sound&Notification>Notifications and play a ringtone to get the sound back. In the case sound disappear whole system sound gone and even when somebody calls or SMS there is no sound. the above solution works in 95% of roms and if it dosent bring back the sound soft reset is needed and everything ok then.
another hint is that when press green call button and keypad appears if i press buttons for around 1 minutes whole sound system went and i should use the solution . i said that because i though it might help.
this problem with wm6 & 6.1 just forced me to use official wm5 which doesn't have this problem. this problem is not only mine as i have found on forums many have this problem.
Thanks for your attention!

I am currently using this 3.1, keypad tones working fine (do you mean this? ).... ( Mine is a G3)
1. Is your speaker works fine? ( like playing music...)
2. did you try a hard reset?
3. optional flash with the lazy tool,
4.
yes, I did all steps except 3. Ill upgrade with that and inform you the results.
BTW please press around 50+ time on keypad to here keypad tones. they suddenly stop! my device is G4. I know that G3 sre better than G4 in wm6&6.1
thanks
I've had a similar issue recently: Korand's WWE3.1 (WM6.1), been running faultlessly for 3 months or so, on a Prophet G4.
Without having changed any configuration, or any new programs, I lost "most" sounds. No ringtones, though I could hear the other person on a call, via either of the 2 loudspeakers. I tried to play an mp3, and I got an error message from Pocket Tunes/WMP (could not play...) - and no alarm calls
I went to Notifications, but could not play any files. I got sound back by doing a soft reset and/or running pocketmax's wake up tweaks (run clock/calendar cleanups - I doubt these had anything to do with it...)
And then normal service was resumed, phew. I missed one more alarm call, and since then, all has been OK.

Thanks for sharing...
i'm having the same problems sometimes. it happens mainly after changing the volume via the up/down switch from off to vibrate or back to certain volume.
the solution is the same as in the first post is mentioned. go to sounds & notifications and there to incoming textmessage. play the ringtone. sometimes a second time doing that is necessary.
but as im testing many roms as well, it happens very often on wm6.1, not so often in wm6.
before i forget to mention, i own a G4 Xda Neo.
//edit: another problem i had once was after using Shadow Vista "My Edition"(wm6.1) from with the ring volume-tweak. during call i rised the volume a little bit and then suddenly my speaker stopped working. even a softreset hadnt solved that problem, then i switched often the volume and after MANY attemps i managed somehow to get it working again. i was kinda shocked
greets
guro
PS: somebody has also the problem when recieving messages and press a key to early that the orange flashled doesn't went off?
well, it looks as if there is not clear solution for this issue. well i think i should go back to WM4 and forget about all other wm6 speed and goodies.

Try a different WM6.1 ROM!
i tried lots of stuff to solve this issue...no luck at all, after flushing the stupid Thai rom, i lost the sound....still trying
well, I tried almost 90% of roms here. all wm 6.1 are having this bug . I found PDAviet 4.0.0.0.6 a bit better than other, the sound bug happens less in this rom how ever it is still there.
oh! i found this here!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371926
it looks as if this problem is with all roms, I think there must be a way to fix it on this biggest forum. still searching and reading an trying roms!!
hey guys,
since I moved to wm6 I was getting this bug, specialy with the sms notification.
but there was one rom which I did'nt have this problem if I kept the default rigntones. it was "Prophet_S4V.19701.01_F".
i'm flashing Prophet_S4V.19213.01_C, hoping it is that good too. altough I had the micro based on the s4v.19213 and and it was driving me crazy with this bug, I couldn't make it ring...
looking forward to help.
cya
well i only found a temporarily solution for this problem. i disabled the keypad tones and the problem occurs each 1-2 days once but the problem is that it is still big chance of missing important Calls and SMS I hope developers found a solution for this BIG wm6 & 6.1 issue.

not 100% of prophet does the same way~~~
1. did you really manually hardreset the prophet every new rom flash?
2. any software installed will affect the performance of it?
3. will it happens same when newly rom flash?

yes, i do hard reset by pressing comm + cam + soft > send button . each rom i try i first open key pad and press 30+ on it and i sadly see sound dissapear! it looks as if prophet is not compatible with wm6!
I am now back to the wm5 and eagerly waiting to see a solution or patch from the great developers here!
well. no fix yet pals?
i had some problem too and what I had to do is...
When ever I hold the pda, I will press the volume up button even in lock mode and if there's no any sound, that mean the sound already disappeared, I had to soft reset... I had this problem at least once in 2 days....
Hope there'll be a fix for this issue sooner...

FIXED: Answer button doesn't answer, data connection turns off after call

EDIT:

That post fixed my problem, as well as fixed the problem which the data connection turns off after a call.
Hey guys, sup?
I have a huge problem with my TELUS Touch Pro. Great phone, but just one problem...
Whenever somebody calls me, I can't answer the phone. The onscreen "Answer" button doesn't work, the Talk button doesn't work, pressing the Select button doesn't work...pressing the headphone button does, but sometimes my headphones are in my pocket, or sometimes they're not with me at all!
The only way I can answer them is by ignoring the call, and calling them back. It sucks big time.
Anybody have a solution? And no, I'm not hard-resetting my phone. It started doing this for my first call, so I'm pretty sure it's not my fault.
HEEAAALLLPPP!!!
Is this the stock ROM?
Do you have BT on and connected?
Mine started doing that yesterday. I did a hard reset and so far everythings back to normal. Still do not know what it was tho
I just had my TP replaced and the new one did the same thing, I did not notice until a few days later as I use a bluetooth headset and pushing the answer key on the headset worked. I had to RTN the device to make it work properly. Have not had a problem since. it has been aabout a week and a half.
Sometimes I've noticed this happens when my memory is tied up elsewhere, ie media player or something. Try soft resetting your phone every morning that might help clear it up.
I have had this happen with me on my Titan which I recently traded in for my Touch Pro, and also on my Touch Pro. I noticed it coincided with installing iGo8 GPS software on both. A hard reset was the only way I found to fix it. Uninstalling the software did not do the trick. I could be wrong about the software title I am blaming, but I have everything reloaded on my phone except that, and all is well. I do have a Slide To Answer incoming call screen now with the MightyRom 4.9.5 rom installed, maybe this is a work around, don't know for sure. If anyone else has more feedback, let me know. I would love to find a fix for it so I can use my GPS software.
Mine started doing this crap last night. I reinstalled the S2A cab and just let it go.
I am starting to think it might just be the telus network being a boatload of suck. Mine does it with the stock rom without any programs loaded from time to time. I am thinking it must be the tower failing to acknowledge that you want to answer the call, so the phone keeps ringing becuase it sees there is an incoming call but the tower ignores that you are trying to answer it. This is just my guess based on what I have read about CDMA, I wonder if any GSM users have the same issue.....
Do any of you have Advanced Configuration installed? This is what caused this problem for mine and my brother's TP. Uninstalling didn't fix it. Had to hard reset.
Yes, this is a known issue with Advanced Config, perhaps some other apps as well. Try this fix.

I can tell you that this will more than likely fix this for you. Mine was doing the same thing, applied this, done and shut! Good luck.
OMG OMG OMG thanks!!!! That also fixed the problem where it ended the data connection after the call.
Sorry I took so long, I THOUGHT I was subscribed to the thread...
Thanks again!

Cant make or answer calls with 2.1 root

I have eris21official-root.zip and sense-able 2.0.
When the phone rings I slide the slider down to answer and I cant hear anyone and the caller cant hear me. The call timer never starts. I had my friend sitting next to me call me, I answer and he hears in his earpiece my phone stop ringing but we cant hear each other.
When I try to make a call the contact picture comes up but no timer and the call doesnt ring in my earpiece or on his phone. Its like the phone is not connecting.
If I power down the phone and back up it works....and then a few calls later the same thing....nothing.
Any ideas?
I also have two icons in my programs for PDF viewer and contacts. They are side by side...
I hate to be a bother. I have read all I could to resolve this without posting but nothing worked.
Any help would be appreciated.
Do a factory wipe, and a dalvik with. Then reset the phone up, and do the 228 activation again. Still won't work, use my downgrade and wait for a rom based on the offical 2.1 upgrade.
NOOO!!! go into settings and change tty mode to off trust me
i have been having this same problem oh my god.. finally someone wth the same problem as me.. what i did was installed the heroic radio and did a *228 activation.. it has worked for me so far its been two days without the phone messing up..

Thanks for the reply, but tty was already off.
i can also vouch for this...my wife's eris has the same issues. In fact, she has had two eris's that have had it. I have checked the TTY and the also flashed the newest heroc radios to no avail. If anyone else has any ideas, it looks like i will have to revert hers back to 1.5

my phone is doing the same thing.. there has to be a fix for this. i have done everything i know to do and it still does it.. i will keep trying to fix it.

[HELP] Audio cuts out. No sound during phone calls.

So I recently just rooted my droid and I'm running the evileris firmware atm I'm really happy with everything except that my phone can no longer make phone calls. The sound during phone calls does not work and I think it may not work sometimes in the music player as well. It works when I plug in the headphones but when i take them out no sound.
Airplane mode and resetting do not fix this problem and the updates that I've tried flashing from [FIX] Audiofix. NEED TESTERS FOR NEW KERNEL in the Hero CDMA forum do not work either.
This phone worked fine before rooting and flashing and the problem is present on all the roms I've used. The update above simply hangs my phone at the bootscreen, no matter which one I use. (Maybe its written just for hero?)
Anyways I was hoping one of you guys could have a fix or maybe have also had this same problem? Thanks!
(from what I've read in the thread above it seems the issue is a bad kernel that hangs up or fails to reset so you have to do it manually, but resetting doesn't fix the issue for my. My problem is constant phone call audio loss)
UPDATE: I have done some more experimenting and it seems the only problem is from the in-cal speaker, because when I put speakerphone on it works fine. The problem lies with the front speaker (part that goes to your ear).
maybe your phone is broken?
I went back down to 1.5 root, works fine. Its an issue with 2.1 :/ So currently I have 2 nandroid backups, 1 of 1.5 and 1 of 2.1 so I'm just switching in between the two.
did you try....
Did you wipe before flashing? After flashing did you try *228 opt 1? This may help as it sorted my audio issues with another Rom.
im having this same problem and i have no clue why i have tried everything knows possible to fix this.
I wipe before each flash as well as each recovery haha. atm my setup is 2.1 evil eris for the weekends and 1.5root for the weekday when i actually need to make calls
*228 opt 1 did not work btw
I just make a new backup at the end of the week and recover to the other one, works like a dual-boot pc or a bootcamp mac. It works, but its getting kidna old I'd rather just have 2.1 for good haha.
Longtime lurker.....1st time poster....I just installed leak v2 (I was one of those that was too impatient to wait for root)...I had the same problem that everything worked fine except the phone had no in call sound. went through all the setting and found that TTY was set to full...I unchecked it and the sound came back. I know this may be simple...but it worked for me.

I'm having the same problem... During a phone call, I get no sound / can't hear the person I am calling from the "internal speakers" (i.e. the one you hold to your ear during a call). If I switch to external speakers (i.e. loudspeakers) I can hear the person I'm calling...
What is this "TTY" setting that fixed this problem for you? Where can I find it and uncheck it?

[Q] [crDroid 15.2] SecPhone.apk is mute after reboot

Hey guys,
i really really need your help, i´m running out of ideas over here
A few days ago i installed crDroid 15.2 on my Galaxy S3 (amongst other things i chose the boeffla 3.10-beta2-Linaro-kernel and a modified SecPhone.apk during the installation with AromaInstaller). I did all the configurations and was pretty happy to eventually have found my perfect custom rom. AutoRecord, no-delay etc.: everything worked very well until i had to reboot my phone for some reason.
Problem was now that i couldn´t neither hear the caller nor the person i called (in fact there hasn´t even been a dialing signal before the connection was established, everything mute from start to the end) while they could hear me perfectly fine. Trying the speakers didn´t work, too.
Making calls with Skype worked, though, and every other "sound producing" app was able to do so. I also could hear the "call signals" (i have to translate here, in german it´s called "Anrufsignal"), but not the actual dialing signal. By call signals i mean the notification-sounds that you can set to know when the connection is established and closed again (there was a third signal, too, i think it was a beep every minute or so...).
Long story short:
I tried to reinstall with a new Kernel (non-Linaro, Stock XXEMB5), unmodified SecPhone.apk and another modem in different combinations, but that didn´t do it.
Even a hardreset (which included a system- and SdCard-wipe, so mobile was superclean) followed by a reinstall didn´t work, the problem persists. Phone works fine until first reboot.
Now i got back to a rooted stock rom (filename: I9300XXEMC2_I9300DBTEMC1_I9300XXEMC2_HOME.tar.md5) and experience no problems so far, but i really appreciated my (nearly) perfect custom rom and would prefer to use it as soon as possible
I already tried google and the search on this site, but it seems that nobody else ever had similar problems, so you are my last hope to make it work :/
Thanks a lot for your help
