thanks in advance.

Hi there, I newly joined the family of Athena this week.
After reading extensively about rom flashing ( I am an universal users for 3 yrs and have quite good experience with flashing rom), i decided to try my luck with my new Athena and upgraded it to WM6. Here I go.
Everything went as smooth as ever, nothing wrong. I have used it for a few days and enjoyed my new toys.
Yesterday, suddenly, I have lost all my system sound. I can't play video with sound, no more system beeps, no more speaker phone. But, the ringer is STILL there. When people calls me, I can still get the phone but I can't talk thru the speaker phone but i can do it thru handfree whatsoever.
I have tried to play a MP3 on the Athena. The media player prompted me that there is a "the specified module could not be found".
Please help me out here.... I would love to have my perfect athena back . Thanks alot.
have your tried doing a hard reset after the actual upgrade? and have you tried doing a hard reset now?
something like this happened to me when i still had the original rom installed. no sounds but whenever plugging in the headset i could take calls. all sounds were streamed to my bt headset whenever it was bonded. several hard resets did not solve the problem.
the solution was for me to upgrade to the then newly released ak3 rom. that's solved the problem but to this day i have yet to find what caused the problem. for you, you might try doing a hard reset. if that doesn't work, you may want to consider reflashing the rom you originally loaded.
hope that helps
Even after I have flashed the official WM6 rom, the problem still persists. Anybody out there can help me to get out of this unfortunate incident?
Thanks truly truly truly lots.
At last, after reading more articles on flasing and different roms, I fond that Radio Rom is in control of all those wireless "components" of my U1000. As I thought all the system sound have been incorrectly re-routed to the bluetooth (I dunno why but just a guess wild enough). I decided to take a adacious move, FLASH a NEW RADIO ROM!
I flashed Radio 1.8 into my U1000 and BANG!!! all sounds come back and everything is back to how good they used to be !!! HURRAH!!!
Thanks for everybody who has tried to help and hope this is a method to solve somebody's problem. Thanks again
hi all,
it's easy to solve, it is a hardware issue. same happened to me: the speaker jack gets so dirt that the athena thinks it has something plugged. that's why you only hear the incoming calls, because if you plug a headphone it still keeps theincoming calls ring.
you just have to clean it very carefully with a small wooden stick and blow into it to take the dirt out. be extremely careful!
I have tried that before. but to no avail. I am not quite sure if it is a HW problem or a SW one. AFter flashing it with Radio Rom 1.8.. it works perfectly but at the end I dunno why that symptom starts again.
Is it possible that my Radio Rom is somewhat corrupted and volatile that it reverts to its "corrupted" state?
Still in need of help.. thanks
believe me, its a problem of dirty jack.... look into it ensuring you have light enough to see what's inside it...
Thanks Dan. It's a hardware problem at the end I confirmed.
I tried to clean it with Alcohol Pal but the problem persists. So I send it to my serviceman to repair it.
hi
this issue has somtimes nothing to do with drit in the jack. its a desing problem of the used headphone jack in the device. somtimes when you remove the plug one of the tiny contacts dosent swing back to it's normal position, so the device still thinks u are using the headphones. these kind of problems also happend on other htc devices like the universal. on my athena (and universal) the solution is to plug and remove the headphonejack serval times, this will normaly fix the problem.
greets mad
Take a sewing pin

He is right. Just take a sewing pin and try to press contact pins to its normal position. I solved same problem in this fashion. I hope this will help you.

Hi Guys, the earpiece of jade is not working.
I had never dropped the phone before, or never put in water.
But all of a sudden, i find that the earpiece is not working. (Usage of loudspeaker and headset made me to conclude only the earpiece is not working)
Is this a common problem? what could be the best way to resolve this.
Tried Soft reset - No luck
Hard reset - No luck
Appreciate if anyone could tell me whether this is a h/w prob or a s/w prob.
Thanks in advance
Hey friends, had to go to HTC care to fix this issue. It was a H/w prob, i had to buy a new earpiece, approximately 500 INR.
Now it is fine and the incall volume is also good. Actually better than before.
Hey, I am having the same problem. Where did you buy the earpiece from and how did you instal it?
hi..just bought this phone about 2months, now i'm facing No sound/audio at all, here's some detail and if anyone of you any good hardware repair skills here, i need your help, as i believe100% it's not the software issues:
1. phonecall, on stock MIUI (NoROOT/customkernel,pure officialrom) its freeze/hang when dialling numbers - few second latter its rebooted itself. voice recording app won't work can't use the app as its error pop-up said, and sometimes i need to hard restart to use the phone again. and its gime bootloop and drained battery (4000mah cannot even survived for 7hour), even with no internet connections the battery still drain fast.
2. when someone calling me,there's no ringtones, even when i answering the call there's no sound at all, no musics sound, any audio files i play only hisssing/noise sounds i can hear just like feedback sound.
3. Unlocking Bootloader, replacing other rom the sounds completely disapear, no hissing,noise at all (CM,Mokee) and still phone app freeze/hang when i try make a phonecall,(reboot/hardreset)the only solution to make the phone back in usable state.
4. installing Citrus ROM, the sounds back but only hissing/noise sound on sometimes i can here the sound with some feedback issues. phone app works i can make a call without freeze/hang,no reboots, but i can't totally hear someone talk to me at all, but when i turn on the loudspeaker i can hear someone talk to me (with some annoying feedback sounds),
5. as i bricked it once and need to reach testpoint so i believe its not under warranty, seal already broken.
6.ordering the parts, connector charging board(which contain whole set new audio i guess hope can fix the issues, but just noticed that if that's part causing the no sound issues, its only fix the audio such as music,ringtones..not the front speaker(phone related still not repairable)
7. trying contact some friends which some understand about hardware told me, i break down the IC Audio so its imposible to repair/change that part since its directly micro-soldered to the mainboard.
anyone have same problem as mine?, or some of you have solutions for my problem please reply .thanks

Same problem as mine.
Even the video recording do not work too.
Is there any solution how to fix it?
I use it as ipa/od without ability to make / receives any phone call, so many ppl has the same problem here seems was Xiaomi's bad hardware components, which mine believes caused by sudden-removal audio/aux jack while its still playing the musics
anyone know the average price to fix the sound ic compared to the phone? maybe 10%, 25%, 50%, or above the price of the new units?
I have the same problem,, could any one tell me where I can buy the hardware (IC sound).
Plz tell me solution. My mobile mi note 3 audio problem, audio only listen Bluetooth.

Redmi NOTE3
I need audio IC for Redmi NOTE3 we're can I buy
hello.it is an old topic. i hope it be useful for anybody else. a few days ago My redmi note 3 pro kenzo was damaged by water. after that when I turned it on, logo of my custom ROM was appear and boot loop ... First I think it was for ROM or kernel. I installed another ROM with other kernels. I could turned on my phone and enter to user interface. but everything that was related to sound ( like : camera-music-call-headphone,... ) was not work at all. I searched a lot. I found out the problem is for Audio IC (WCD9306 Audio IC) this model. https://www.deviceparts.com/wcd9306-audio-ic-for-xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ori.html
it is used in Samsung mobile phone like S4. however you can buy it. but the main problem you can't change it by your own without tools . if you are familiar with hardware it could be useful: http://www.u2ugsm.com/blog/xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ringer-solution-jumper-problem-ways/
I think cleaning IC with cleaner or alcohol might be useful. good luck
Edit: After 4 hours I turned it on and sound is back! I just cleaned it by alcohol and cleaner. but I made mistake. a little bit of that alcohol-water liquid is entered in my LCD screen. I put it in warm place and hope it will get better.
