I was wondering if anyone knew a way to answer calls using my headphones with the mic and the little call button. I run with my thunderbolt and I like just being able to press the little button to answer calls, but I haven't been able to do it on my thunderbolt. It worked on my droid 1 once I got froyo and it worked on my samsung fascinate, but I haven't been able to get it to work on my thunderbolt. Does anyone know if there is hack to be able to do this or maybe I am missing something simple in the menu options. Anyway if anyone know a way to do this, that would be great. Thanks again for all of your help in the past and all the help I am sure I will need in the future.
I also had the Droid 1 and it worked for me on Gingerbread. Now i have the thunderbolt and it didn't work on Froyo and it still doesn't work on Gingerbread. This is a feature i really liked and hope to see it on my TBolt
I would LOVE to have this work. Every wired headset I get disintegrates in a matter of weeks. I've heard this is supposed to work, but never heard a solution.
Some headsets work for me and some dont. Weird.

Allow me to be the first to show your thanks button some love. This worked for me. I recently purchased a pair of Monster beats that I boxed up to return because the mic button worked to skip tracks but not answer calls, but these same heaphones work great on my buddy's EVO. The headphones stay, just wish they weren't the Lebron James beats , Knicks fan all the way
Sorry, I meant tty, it should be off, change it from tty off to try vco

Ok so i'm not sure what setting I turned on but whenever I'm on the phone and someone calls linda starts chatting my ear off with the callers number and name and all that jazz. I' ve messed with just about every setting I can think of and looked all over. If anybody has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them. Thanks

It is an app you downloaded. I had to turn that crap off too. She never shuts up. Go to accessablity or something in your settings.
Thanks that's what I thought. I hope I can narrow it down she's driving me friggin nuts.

Not sure if that is it but I recently started to use vlingo. I have to go to running services just to kill it. Kind of annoying.
I'm new here but just thought i would give some advice because i had the same issue with my text to speech. Go into settings under voice input/output, text to speech see if driving mode is checked. If so all you have to do is uncheck it

yeh then its probably vlingo. just open it up and there's an option to read everything or stay silent.
I don't have vlingo but I just uninstalled all of my unessary navigation software (except stock nav) and see if it's something caught up in there. If not I'll just use titanium backup to reinstall them. If it does take care of it them I'll just reinstall them one by one.

And I did look at driving mode nothing was checked so I'm going to see if unistalling oruxo maps helps. If not then I think I'll try checking it rebooting then unchecking it see if that works.

Settings > Voice input and output > Text-to-speech settings > Driving mode?
Yeah the driving mode was unchecked so I'm going with an app somewhere, but haven't gotten two phone calls our a text while I'm on the phone since I posted

Go 2 settings....then voice inout/output make sure all the way on bottom piko isnt checked snd make sure that near top no other boxes are checked....happened to me as well. I think it when I downloaded text to speech for google maps

Ok so it wasn't the nav apps. I have gone to voice/default engines and when I uncheck Pico it just closes the window when I reopen it it shows pico is still enabled

LMAO!!! Alright everyone who has this as their 1st HTC and or Android phone raise your hand.
I'm just messing with everyone so don't get mad. I'm sure it's just the excitment of 3 months of waiting and now finally having this thing in our hands that has everyone flustered. Carry on.
No on the first EVO wasn't the whole thing controlled by the main one under sound? Maybe not but whatever tis funny

maybe he is talking about the sound emitted when you plug in your USB even if the phone is muted.
This has been removed in the CM7
community rom 1.3...high energized theme.
its not the voodoo voice, its a new voice i have been hearing a week or so
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
It was a left over from GrainOsands High Voltage personal theme that many people said they enjoyed. You'll have to ask what the specific files are so you can remove them...probably something in /system/media. Opening the drop down notification will interupt the sound from playing in the meantime.
Have you shutdown your phone yet? The shutdown sound is pretty funny.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
yea it is..catches me off guard sometimes
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA Premium App
I don't know if straight up deleting the file will cause force closes so try copying 'Charger_Connection.ogg' from /system/media/audio/ui in an unthemed ComRom .zip and pasting it in the same directory on your phone. If it asks you to overwrite the file say yes.
I know that just deleting the shutdown.ogg will get rid of the shutdown sound without causing issues.
Hopefully it works for you.

Just go into audio manager (should come with the theme) and set system volume to zero

Looks like the phone thinks you have your headphones plugged in. Try rebooting and see if it goes away.
Didn't work... I just reflashed my Rom...

And if none of that works get a pair of headphones and keeping plugging it in and out, happened on my old tp2 just keep putting them in and out until it fixed itself.
