I bought a HTC Amaze 4G with stock GB ROM installed. I rooted and installed a custom ROM named: One Good ROM ICS V3.8 [ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450531 ]
Everything works fine except that there is no audio. I can't hear any sound playing music or videos, not even when the phone rings. There is no sound through the speaker when i pick up the call and there is no sound in the mic i.e. the person on the other end can't hear me as well.
Since i am new to the whole smartphone-flashing-deal, I can't figure out how to fix this issue. Any help will be appreciated.
My phone is rooted, S-On and has 4EXT recovery that i can boot to. I flashed a faux123 kernel from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359951
I even tried connecting a Nokia BH - 503 BT headset to the phone to see if audio works on that. However, there was no luck. This headset works just fine on my LG Optimus 3D.

Did you flash an "official" HTC ICS firmware before installing your current ROM? If so, have you tried any other ROMs? Honestly, I've never used the ROM you mention, so I'm not familiar with it. Also, have you read the dev and QA&T threads for that ROM to see if others have had the issue and possible workarounds? Have you read the various pinned threads, the forum wiki or the bible page? If you haven't please do so. Unfortunately, you're a newbie here and there's a very low tolerance for answering noob questions which have already been answered elsewhere
Edit: BTW why did you choose this particular ROM over the other ICS Sense ROMs available? After making my post this morning I did a bit of investigating and it turns out this hasn't been updated since June 2012. There have been several OTA updates since then that would have been impossible to incorporate since it's no longer supported. Do yourself a favor and try one of the newer, more recently updated more popular ROMs. Examples being, SuperAfnan's ROMs (he has several ranging from optimized debloated stock to heavily themed hybrids) or the Energy ROMs (one is themed tweaked and optimized, the other stock themed, but optimized).
Once you've established that you can flash and have everything working properly, then try using some of the other outstanding ROMs like the ViperAmaze (Heavily themed and customized Sense), the Speed Rom (debloated with most sense removed), or the various experimental JB and KitKat AOSP builds.
I hope this helps.

Hi,
I have tried the official roms, villainrom 12 (excellent!) and cronos 2.1.3 (also excellent!). All have the horrible bluetooth problem of skips in the music, then a speed up/slow down that results in pitch changes.
I saw that Darchdroid got it fixed in the CDMA version and wondered if there are any roms for the GSM version that have it fixed too? Just in case I missed it!
Thanks
nobody in this forum seems to know how to fix it. I've asked but nobody knows, i believe the only sense rom that i never had the skipping was behnaam's legend port.
I am not experiencing this with VillainROM 12. Didn't have it with CyanogenMOD by Elemag either...
none of the Aosp based roms have this problem it seems to be only sense related. I've had this problem with villain,cronos,chocolateeclair,etc and nobody had any idea when i asked the same question. I actually am going to try to move the bluetooth firmware and files from the legend rom i mentioned above into another newer sense rom I just have to read up on resigning the zip, I'm a super noob to all that is linux.
Moved to Q&A as not development. Temporary redirect put in place.

Thanks, although I have also tried Cronos 2.2 (Froyo) that doesn't have sense and it still did the pitch/speed change.

Can I ask what car head unit or bluetooth headset you were using? It definitely does it with my Sony BT2600 car unit and both Cronos & Villainrom.

Could you let me know an AOSP rom to try that you know it works in please? - although I really like sense, I hate this issue and could live without it to get it fixed.
I'm pretty much a noob at this too but I'll help as much as I can!
like kosmiq mentioned Elemag's CMH rom doesn't seem to have this issue (I've used this rom alot and I have a 2010 Mazda3 and the bluetooth in the mazda is wonky at best and this rom works perfectly with it). As far as cronos froyo I haven't tried the bluetooth in that yet in my car but that is still an alpha development so if you need something more stable and complete then stay away from it, It is a great rom and the one I am running now but I am probably going to flash over to Maxisma's newest legend+WWE combo rom.
Good to see Maxisma back.
I'm trying to find ICS or JB Roms that have A2DP support. Until today I've been running Unnamed 2.2.1 which works great with my car's stereo and I'm able to stream pretty much whatever I want.
But wanting to update my phone to the latest android versions I started flashing some Roms and I haven't found one that would stream music via Bluetooth to my car's stereo.
Roms I've tried so far with no luck are:
CM9 Stable
AOKP JB (10.5.2012)
Slim Bean
SuperNexus Build 2 & 3
Aberration 1.3
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
I've been able to use A2DP to my car stereo on both cm9 and cm10. Make sure you delete the pairing on your stereo before connecting again after you flash a new ROM. That may be your problem.

Thanks for the response. I deleted all the saved paired devices from my car and I tried again with both CM9 stable and CM10 latest nightly and the stereo receives the song's info but it when I press play it the phone gets stuck playing on 0:01 of the song and nothing happens after that.
A2DP seems to be broken in a lot of kernels from reading around the dev forum. Try a different one.
Edit: Kernel, not rom.

Thanks for the response. I installed CM9 stable with the next kernels:
Siyah-v4.1.6-mswap
N.E.A.K-2.0.6x-AOSP
fluxi-xx-I777-7-29-2012
And still no luck getting a2dp working. I'm starting to think that it might be my car's stereo, I have clarion head units on all 3 of my vehicles and they all use "Parrot bluetooth module" whatever that means.
What I still find weird is that the Rom I'm running right now works great, so I guess I'll be running GB while I figure out how to get this working with a ICS or JB Rom.
I too am having the same problem with the A2DP support. I just flashed my 1st ROM on my GS3 and I'm not getting any audio through my car stereo speakers. Are most of the JB ROMS lacking this support? By looking at most of the posts, A2DP support seems to be broken. Almost makes we want to revert back to stock ICS :crying:
ROM currently running: Codename Android 3.6.6

Or you could look at it this way: He's providing another data point that says that a different JB rom on a different device has the same problem. That more than likely points to a problem in JB with A2DP that is not just on the i777...

No, I look at it like it's about a different phone that has nothing to do with ours. And needs to be posted in the proper section.
Hello I am hoping someone can help me find a solution to my constant bluetooth issue. My plantronics voyager pro+ & hd headsets were not connecting and would not re-pair with the phone. They pair and connect to every other device I've tried. I had the phone rooted with the htc version viper rom not supposed to be used outside of htc. I know there was an htc maintenance update version 2.13.651.1 but the teamwin/ venom viper rom I now have which I love has their own ota updates and the latest version of their rom 2.0.2 based on 2.13.651.1 so I must have the update which had the minor bluetooth fix. At this point I don't know what to do. I ama co tractor and rely heavily on using the bluetooth. Anyone that can shed some light on this would be greatly appreciated?
Did you check the viper rom thread yet? My jawbone bluetooth works fine on the stock rom and on stock w/ goodies. I know my plantronics m50 didn't work well on this phone, maybe troubleshoot that too.

Hi thanks I contacted plantronics and we tested both bluetooth headsets on 3 other devices- they paired up fine. This ruled out the headsets especially when the worked fine for several months since I got the phone. No havent checked the thread- am going to look it up now... did you see something there?

No but it might be rom related, I don't know since I don't use that rom.
First, I am currently s-off and running NeoMax v2.0 with what I believe are the newest firmware and radios. I also have Sebastian's overclock kernel. While reading the AOKP-Neo thread, I noticed that it doesn't support custom kernals. Will I be okay just doing a wipe and flashing the Rom, or do I need to do something else because of the kernel I'm currently running?
Next, I understand that there are some bluetooth issues with voice and audio, but does anyone know of any problems when connecting peripherals such as bt keyboards or game controllers? I should be receiving the new Nyko Gamepad soon and am anxious to try it out.
Lastly, I know that It's been previously discussed but I haven't seen an answer that satisfies my needs yet. The AOKP camera qualitly is just plain lousy. I understand that the sense camera is incompatible because it is based on sense. Is it the sense firmware that makes the sense camera so great, or is it the program itself? Would it be difficult to reverse-engineer the program to run on AOKP? Admittedly, if It's not already obvious, I know next to nothing about writing programs and give major props to all the devs here, but is anyone working on this, or should I stop holding my breath?

1. I believe that since you are s-off you can simply flash through recovery and the kernel will install itself. If not you can always do what s-on people like myself do and flash the boot.img through fastboot before booting into the rom for the first time.
2. Not sure.
3. From what I have heard the Devs talk about or how they react, it is not possible to run the sense camera on AOSP or AOKP roms since the app runs on the sense framework that is obviously absent in AOSP or AOKP. From what I understand there is no way to get the sense camera to work without the framework, and I am assuming the Devs that have the knowledge to work around something like that are busy with other, larger issues.
hope this helps
You should be fine just flashing things through the recovery, since Sense and AOSP roms use different kernels it should overwrite it. If you want to be completely sure nothing screws up you can always wipe the boot partition if you are using the latest version of TWRP.

if you flash AOKP and have s-off you will get a custom kernel installed. There are a couple of kernels for AOSP right now. Snuzzo has the most customized one for AOSP
only BT issue that is left is BT calling
camera quality is the same from aosp to sense. only difference is sense cam can do 1080p video recording and aosp can only do 720p
Hi Everyone,
So I recently made the switch from 4.2.2 to 4.3 today morning. I went from dvhexer's CM10.1 to CM10.2 and found that everything is nice and smooth and fast - installed without problems etc.
Then I made my first call to check my voice-mail and I got no sound from the earpiece on the phone. Being the clever fella I am, I turned on the speaker and I could hear that the call was in progress. I next tried headphones and that worked too. So I googled the issue to see and I saw a couple people who had similar issues.
I flashed several modems/radios (including some hybrid morrislee variety), flashed several kernels but ultimately couldn't get the sound to work. I also tried bruthaedhung's PACman Rom (4.3) and it had the same issue. Does anyone here have a fix for this issue? I'm in a health related professional grad schools so privacy in calls is kinda important and I can't always have speaker phone calls!
Thanks for your help!
EDIT:
My LGOG has not been converted to an N4 (Ever) it is currently running CM10.1 without any issue (no hardware failure). The only thing that may be different here is that I am on T-Mobile instead of AT&T (unlocked AT&T model). The problem is only showing up on the custom built 4.3 roms.
