ICS headphones problems - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has the headphone phone call problem been fixed on any ics rom yet? On every ics rom I've used the call quality was horrible with tunnel sound when I plug my headphones in. Is there any ics rom that doesn't do that?

I'm sorry to hear that I have never heard someone having problem like this ........have u done squeaky clean install before updating to ics roms?

This isn't the first time its been said. I always Odin back to stock n then flash cm7 then flash an ics rom. But it still does it.

have u really wiped everything before using download mode to go back to 2.1?

No I haven't done that. What do I need to wipe before I go to download mode?

Do I have to format my external SD card?
Sent from my T959 using xda app-developers app

remove ur ext memory card and do the following steps and reinsert after going to stock .....I don have ext memory card btw......actually ur tunnel sound problem I saw in some other forum but I don remember where ...there they have mentioned it occurs in some vibrant phones running ics but still no proper fix ....

check the vibrant dev forum especially this forum for CM9 (4.0.4) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575170 there should be some posts about the headset calling issues.

oh, um, what about speakerphone issues? for some reason, when i get calls and i answer them, and when i put them on speaker mode, both the person on the other side and me as well, cannot hear a clear voice of each other. (more so on the other side) Is there a patch for this?

I'm quite sure this method has become out of date and no longer used because of issues a while ago... Hence the title having the word, "OBSOLETE" in it... just pointing that out.

Bumping your last post after 2 hours won't win you friends, nor get you help.
The whole Beats port was badly thought out, adds zero SQ improvements, seems to mess up all ROMs and is possibly illegal - anyone who tries it deserves all the problems they get IMO.
See if you can find any crap that Beats has left behind on your sd card, manually delete, factory rest and reflash. What else can you do?

Mute/unmute problem

First off I understand the mute/unmute problem is on most ics roms. But it never happens for me unless I'm on the phone with my headphones in. It's with every ics ROM I've used. Can someone please help me with this because I don't really like talking on the phone without my headphones because I hate holding my phone up all the time. Thanks

This is for when you plug in your headphones? Because mine only does it when I plug in my head phones. Plus it downloaded as htm and not zip file.

Oh, my bad, Didn't read your entire OP.
That is just for phone.
Also its probably a htm because you're downloading it on a phone most likely?

It looks to only fix the handset problem for most. (You tried CM9 and Mute/Unmute Patcher is based on CM9)
Unfortunately I don't know that I have a compatible headset to try. Did you say that you can you confirm that this doesn't happen on manufacturer stock? Did you try recently? (To rule out that the headset is just getting old and worn)
I flashed cm9 and flashed the patch and it didn't work. still had horrible tunnel sound and quality with my headphones in. Worked fine without headphone (like on all other ics roms). Odin back to 2.1 stock and it worked flawlessly with headphones in & out. Flashed MIUI stock based on CM7 and it worked flawlessly again headphones in and out. So I can definitely confirm its not an hardware issue. Idk why it only does it with ics roms.

I was thinking....what if I flashed an ics rom....then flashed an gb modem....would it work? Or does this not have anything to do with the modem?

Well its either that you flash a new radio, like KB5 or try toggling flight mode. That worked for me when I had ICS.

what is a "linario" build? Can you link me to one that worked for you?
All I want is a stable ICS ROM to run on this thing....
I have never used a Vibrant before, I am doing this for a friend and I am kinda playing it by ear. This phone is so crazy, coming from a Galaxy Nexus this thing is so complicated, lol.
airplane mode thing didn't work, it cannot find network.
It is doing this with any 4.0+ ROM I try, and every time I flash a new ROM it keeps changing recoveries on me, I've gone thru like 5 recoveries...
Not only that but half the ROMs won't flash, and I cannot find a GB ROM to try out to see if I can get radio working again.
And how the hell do I get into download mode? vol dn + Power just bootloops the splash screen.
This phone is so insane.

Download mode is first holding both volume buttons then inserting the USB in while holding then down.

Thanks a bunch man, here goes nothing.
I got into a bootloop of Doom in recovery, so ODINed stock 2.2, now I have to root/flash again :s will report back
sigh....
did an Odin stock flash, used the toolbox to root, then used the toolbox to "flash custom ROM" selected this ROM,
it starts to flash then reboots, then gets into a recovery mount error, and restart loop, so now my recovery is borked, looks like i have to Odin AGAIN.
Is there a better way to flash this ROM than the toolbox? I feel like it's using a bad version of CWM or something. Once i root it, what do I do?
edit: I'm going to Odin stock while I wait for reply
Usually when you get into a boot loop all you have to do is go back into recovery in reflash the rom. that should take care of the problem but if it doesent you can always just re wipe and reflash the rom again then reeboot recovery and flash again. don't forget to flash the gapps I c s version

I can't get recovery to load, it crashes and reboots. the actual recovery got borked.
maybe I'm missing something here?
From stock 2.2 I go to root -> flash custom blah, it flashes/loads cwm and I do the ROM.zip thing, then bam recovery is borked...
If you odined back it should have taken away root so you would need to reinsrall packages. Km not gonna be able to help anymore till around d four. Sorry I have band camp

Cyanogen Mod 10 issues

Hey guys,
a few days ago I rooted my device and installed Cyanogen 10 on my Sprint HTC Evo 4G LTE and I'm so happy I did. This device, which before was sluggish, annoying, kept freezing and loading, is now BLAZING fast, It's like I quadrupled my processor speed. I love it and am NEVER going back, Thank you CM10!
That said - there are a few minor issues that I'm still dealing with that I'd love this forum's help with
1. That error when you start up your phone, it's a little annoying and it's been around for so long, on every Evo 4G LTE running CM10, is it really that hard to fix? does any of the newer released (from the past week) fix this issue already?
2. Volume isn't loud enough, it use to be a lot louder both on the speaker and when listening to headphones, I tried installing BEATS again, and that made it about %2 louder, but it definitely use to be at least %30 louder than it is right now
3. I can't seem to get my external SD card mounted to USB when I connect the Evo to the computer. It mounts fine inside the device, I just don't have any options to choose the external card as the USB Drive when I connect it to my PC
4. Can't use the device to usb tether, where is that located? it use to be one of the options when I plugged the USB cable in but now there is only "USB DRIVE".
Thanks guys!
Hope on irc and grab the latest, it should fix every issue you noted.

The latest build for CM10 by Deck fixes the error you get. You can get it form IRC or go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1851912. I suggest you follow this thread because the people here can help you with any questions.
Also I suggest you do a fresh install when going to the 10/25 build and if you're S-ON also flash the new kernel.
I'm actually having another more major issue, I can't seem to use my headphones (that have a mic on them) to talk to people on the phone. They work fine with music but when I try to talk you can't hear anything and they can't hear me.

Please kind sirs, please assist me...

I have flashed CWM correctly, I have done everything right. I have reset the phone many a time, and am not a stranger to ODIN. However, the Fascinate I'm working on WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ANY ICS zip! I know for a fact that it is not a bad zip, but when I try to flash it, (no matter build 1 or build 2) the phone says "E: Can't open /sdcard/<ICS package name here> (bad) Any responses are welcome! I have to return this phone by tomorrow, so I could REALLY use some help here! Thanks again!
EDIT: Just tried flashing the latest stable CM7.2, the exact same thing happened. Help is needed drastically.
Could be a number of things. it is recommended that a CLASS 6 or higher SD card be used. Also known problems with the USB cable. Try using different ones. Are you by chance following Droidstyles Guide ? Located in GENERAL section, it is known as THE GUIDE for our fascinate. Read it through and follow it to the letter.

to add on: you may need to format your sd card, but I wouldn't go that drastic yet. try what ice mentioned first
I am using the correct CWM, and I have tried using every guide I can find. (including the one you mentioned) I don't know how to check whether or not my SD is CLASS 6. I have not tried flashing the files from internal SD, however. I own 2 SDs and am not opposed to formatting one of them. The other is full of valuable data, but if necessary I can back it up.
Should say right on card what class. I'd try your other cards, or buy new.
And like Z said, it could very well be that needs to be formatted.

Well the SDs do not have a class number on them. One of them has a little 2 in a partial circle, does that mean anything? And I think you have to use ICS build 1 coming from GB.

Oh, great! Is there internal, mountable in CWM storage? I'm pretty sure the Fascinate has 2 GB of internal memory, and CWM fixed for CM7 doesn't seem to recognize any flashable ROM packages from external SDs. So could I use build.prop to switch internal and external SDs, then flash the ROM from there? Will that work?

Yeah, this isn't actually MY fascinate, it's my friend's. I just want to know if build.prop hacks could take effect outside of Android, and still do their desired effect in CWM. (For instance, switching internal and external SDs)
