Microphone issues on HTC Tilt - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development

For some reason my microphone doesnt work during calls at all in android. i tried 1.5 and 1.6 some months ago and because the mic didnt work i didnt use it at all. once i heard they had 2.1 out i got it on and still, no microphone during calls. i thought 2.1 would have fixed the problem, but obvioulsy its an issue with my phone.
is this just a setting i need to change? i tried searching the 2.1 elcair forum and i didnt find anything about anyone elses mic not working. during a call i can hear the other person pefectly, they just cant hear me.
also, the speaker doesnt work, for ringtones and such. is this still an issue that hasnt been resolved, or is it a problem again with my phone. when i try to change the ring tone it freezes the program and i have to force quit.
any help would be awesome and would make me happy. THX
(im just trying to get it to work, i plan on upgrading to the HTC Evo 4g when it is released)

could this be because my default.txt isnt set up correctly?

I have audio problems with calls if I use the voice search feature. Are you using any kind of voice input methods before trying to make a call?
Also, on the builds I have tried (haven't upgraded in a while) the speakerphone feature wasn't working. They may have fixed that in the newer builds, I don't know.

no i havent been using anything else on there... just no mic during calls. its the first thing i test every time i reinstall android. and still nothing. and yes, my mic works in windows mobile every time i reboot.
im aware the speakerphone doesnt work... but i thought that was only during calls as a speaker phone. does the speaker work for ringtones? or was that what wanst working.

the mic works in all builds and the speakerphone works for both donut and eclair with the newer builds, after applying the updates. Make sure you have the latest radio flashed.

latest radio?

that would be why i bet... im running radio version 1.27.14.09

Mic issue.
I'm glad someone starting this tread I was about to. I've been dying to get android because I thought sipdroid was going to be a good voip solution. Tried it on a G1 and realized it isn't. Now I hear about sipagent, and that I hear works. Since it uses the mic at an application level and not the radio level I've been waiting to hear that voice search works cause that implies droid on kaiser is ready for voip development/beta testing.
So can anyone confirm that the mic is fixed, and that the voice search feature is working within some build?

updated the ROM and radio based on the file at the htc website...
WORKS NOW!!!
im so happy. thx. and yes now the speaker works also and plays ringtones. the speakerphone doesnt work, but atleast it doesnt freeze the phone when you click on the button.

pardonmyownage, can you tell me if voice search causes the phone lose its mic?

I experienced the same. Definitely voice search caused this problem. After re-installation, it's going well.

Too bad I had to drop Android because the microphone issue. I can listen to the people on the phone, but they can't hear what I say. . I have tried 1.70.xx, 1.71.xx, 1.65.24.36 radios, but none of them works. Anybody help me plz , I'm dying for Android (

I have the same issue! Please, anyone can help us?
I can't find a clear solution.. the people says that changed Radio and works, but WHAT Radio?!
Pls help us!!!

Recommended radio is anything from 1.65.xx.xx up to 1.71.xx.xx, although some find 1.65 better, there are others who find 1.71 better, but audio issues are normally associated with radio lower than 1.64.xx.xx.
If you have a lot of 'no service' issues then change to a radio at the other end of the scale, e.g. if you are on 1.71 then try 1.65, if on 1.65 try 1.71.
From what I have seen so far 1.71 works best for US, 1.65 for europe, not enough data on other areas to say for certain about anywhere else tho.
Just remember, if you are on a radio lower than 1.65 you are more likely to have audio, especially mic issues.

thanks Zenith! Now I have the microphone works!
It works with radio 1.65.16.25
Instructions (for original Kaiser with wm6 and radio 1.27.x.x):
1 - Copy JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe to internal memory and Run from cellphone
2 - When show "USB" on cell screen, remove the USB cable and plug it again
3 - In the ActiveSync on PC, Disable USB conections on Settings
4 - Run from computer KaiserCustomRUU.exe.. and next, next...
Here, HardSPL 3.29 it's allright!
5 - To install WM 6.1, run from the computer: UU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.28.405.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.exe with cell connected on USB.
So.. I used Myn's Warm Donut from thread [ANDROID] Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 5 - 04/24/2010] and I have a Android Phone!
thanks

Bluetooth randomly disconnects using LVSW

Well I'm using LVSW 04-08-07, and I'm having issues with my Bluetooth staying connected.
Basically it will just randomly shut off on the phone and I have to re-enable it in order for my headset to work.
At first I thought that it was my headset ( Jawbone ) but then I tried it in my car with my Motorola T305 speaker and it does the same thing.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
I had the same problem too. I am using my sony bluetooth headset witht eh latest LVSW 4-8-2007 rom which I didn't have problem with any other roms. Maybe there are specific settings that we missed out ???
Well it's good to know it's not just my phone with this issue...
Make sure that you have the bluetooth voice command set to "enabled".(start>programs>b/t voice command config>enabled) I have not had any disconnect issues since I set that up.
Hope this helps.........Later
BT
Same here, until 04 version it was ok (on the other LVSW versions). Now it randomly disconnects.
Also seems like my battery is draining WAY faster.

Be sure to check/turn off I/r beam function.I had horrible battery life until I looked and found that the receive incoming beams was checked. I unchecked it and my battery life has increased greatly!
Hope this helps........Later
BTW I have had this issue with ALL LVSW roms, not just the latest one. But the roms are so damn good that I am willing to fix the few small issues they may have.
^^^ Beam now off - thanks.
But BT still disconnects like it's going out of fashion. Will probably downgrade to 03-26 which to mee seemed more ok than this one. Thanks anyho.

Do you have the bluetooth voice command config in your programs? If so, open it and enable the b/t. If not, it is in one of the threads regarding m$ voice command issues. It seems to help keep the bluetooth connected.
Later...............

I had similar issue with LVSW 040807 and bluetooth headset (specifically with M$ Voice Command) but I did not the issue with the 032607. It might have something to do with the AD2P fix that was applied in that version.
Also how his the Jawbone headset, is it as good as the marketing?
Same proble here!, my TyTn randomly disconnect from my Parrot bluetooth car hands free, it's a really annoying thing.
I had sam problem using previous LVSW version.
Not using voicecommand at all - battery gone after half a day.
BT disconnects left, right & center.
Previous LVSW version worked fine.
I'll downgrade as soon as I find some time (to re-install my stuff ).
Same here using 05.04.07 (or LVSW-547)
I am using LVSW and it drops out maybe once to twice a day.
Battery life is good. I easily get a good day out of the phone with out charging. That includes several hours of talk time.
Hopefully in future realease he fixes the problem.
Great Rom.
Hmm if there is no solution to this I might just have to downgrade...

Thread for Bluetooth Problems with Black 3.0.1

I did a search on the other thread and found many people with the same issue. In order to organize our thoughts on this topic I would go ahead and open a thread for it and maybe this will help jj and community members to find a solution.
My problem is much like everyone else. I can connect my motorola S9 they will play music; however, when I go to try to make a phone call or answer a call all I get is a slight hum through the headset with no audio and a possible freeze of the device. The slight hum is initiated by pressing the phone icon button on the headset.
I hope I haven't pissed people off by starting this thread I just thought it was necessary to come together on this because it is not just noobs having this problem but members and senior members.
EDIT: It looks like from the other thread JJ just came on and addressed this issue and is working on a fix. mods please remove this thread.

Widcomm bt project?
My problem:
Parrot ck3100 paired and sincro without problem. But no sound, just static.
Nothing original, as I can read in meny posts.
I wonder if somebody tried widcomm bt drivers (the project for hermes) with black 3.0.1.
I've been seeing a weird issue where the phone doesn't seem to know if BT is on or off. The Comm Manager will say BT is off -- but the blue LED is blinking. You go into BT settings, and it's unchecked (and presumably off) -- but it's still discoverable from PC's. Also hitting the BT button on the comm manager doesn't always toggle BT -- sometimes it works, sometimes not.
It's not a major deal to me, since I only use BT for PAN and file transfers, but that's only because I lost my really nice BT headset.
I have the Motorola HT820.
Black 2.0, not working
LVSW 5/5 working but phone only sometime answers
Black 3.01 - Success! All buttons work and sound is fantastic with stereo. Headset seems to work for call.
Widcom stack on my lappy seems to connect ok, although it seems slower than previous roms for transferring files
I'm currently testing an uncooked version of this ROM and BT is working without any problems
Am using a Jabra BT 250 headset. Initially paired it fine but went to use it an hour later and would not connect.
Re-paired it and it worked but with static.

Mute and Unmute by pressing the Green button twice should bring back the sound.

whats wrong with posting this in the thread for black 3.1? i guess this issue will never be solved not the bluetooth the stupidity
If the BT issues are a problem, do as I and many others did; flash Black 2.5 back onto the phone. Hopefully, your backup will be better than mine
But, the reality is that these are ROMs that are put together by volunteers, and use the latest available software. It can, by its very nature, contain bugs. It is NOT JJ's issue to fix them all--he's done a great job (walshieau too!) making these kick-ass roms. If you want to complain about the roms, flash the official carrier rom, and call them and complain. If you want to be on the bleeding edge, you are going to have to READ, LEARN and UNDERSTAND what you are doing--and be proficient enough to at least TRY to fix your own problems.

[Q] Force Close Youtube and Bluetooth issues

Hello all. I am enjoying android on my Tilt 2. Thanks to all who have contributed.
I am fairly new to Android and have been having some issues. Although there are references to one of my issues elsewhere none of the posted suggestions have worked for me. I have installed and uninstalled over a dozen different Youtube .apk files and each one results in a force close upon opening the app. Has anyone had this issue on a Tilt2 and how did you fix it?
Secondly, I have seen reference to bluetooth working in some of the newer builds. Is it working on a Tilt2 in any build? When I try to turn on bluetooth it trys for several seconds but never actually turns on. If anyone has it working on a Tilt2 could you please explain how you got it working? Can I use a stereo bluetooth headset with it, if not is there anyway to use usb headphones?
I apologize if this is addressed elsewhere. I am sure there will be some people asking if i even searched. As i mentioned, I have seen references, but none seemed to be clear on what device they were using. (Rhod, Tilt2, TP2, etc..) Any help is greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work. Hopefully soon this will be an option for all-around everyday use on these devices.
Well BT doesn't really work... it'll pair, but it won't pass audio. At least that was my experience on my RAPH - haven't tested on my RHOD.
Youtube, never really tried that either... may need hw3d to work right. I heard that the 'low-quality' version of youtube works tho.
3.5mm headphone jack works - kinda. But currently to get it to work it breaks all other sound. I'm not sure if it works on the extUSB thing, but I'd imagine it would - you just set the snd.force to 1 (I set it to 2 for the 3.5mm jack) and boot Android while a call to voicemail is running - with some headphones plugged in. This does cause adverse effects - no sound other than the headphones, and I noticed funky noises coming out of the speaker when playing music thru the headphones...

I posted a working YouTube apk here (low quality mode only): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7954193&highlight=youtube#post7954193
BT doesn't currently work on the Rhodium. I assume it's because of the different BT stack that's used by our device. Besides that, while BT turns on for the Topaz & Raphael, audio doesn't pass properly, as was already mentioned. 3.5mm Headset doesn't work on the Tilt 2 through the ExtUSB (in fact, no audio passes through the adapter at all).

Don't know if you've figured this out yet or not, but I had the same youtube issue on my rooted LG ally. I've worked on it for over an hour now, and finally got a solution.
Download Titanium Backup from android market. Go to "Backup/Restore" in Titanium, scroll down to the YouTube entry, tap it, tell Titanium to Wipe Data.
Edit: Okay, I lied. Reboot and back to force closes.

[Q] BlueAnt V1 Headset + Evo

Trying to find some feedback from anyone using the BlueAnt V1 bluetooth headset with the EVO.
I'm having problems with the headset not answering calls maybe 85-90% of the time. It announces there is a call, but will not answer via voice command or hitting the button. I can answer via the phone but when I do it doesn't transfer voice to the headset. The headset thinks it is connected because when the call is ended it tells me.
Have done two factory resets on the phone and resets on the headset with no change. Also spoken to Blueant tech support and they weren't much help. All they said is they haven't heard of it having problems with the EVO and should be compatible with all Android devices. Their suggestion was to try it with another EVO and see if the problem still exists. Well, I don't have another to test it on so that does me no good. This headset worked great on both my Blackberry phones before I got the EVO and has the latest updates installed.
BTW...I'm running Myn's RLS4 w/ #17.
Thanks.
Well I don't think it is the Bluetooth , it is the Rom. I have problems with myns #4 with the sync in my email. I have a blue ant also and it does the same thing . I have tried other roms including virus and it works on them , try that .
sent from the phone that is EVO
Pretty sure I tried this headset when the phone was stock and with some other Sense and non-Sense roms. It has never worked properly.
Not sure if it has something to do with the lockscreen or not. The first time it is connected to the phone it works fine. But every time after that, it doesn't connect the call.
I haven't had any problems running anything on Myn's. But just to make sure, when I switch a rom again I will reset and try the headset.
yeah mine does the same thing, it works if i answer w/ voice command but if i press answer button most of the time the audio is route to phone speaker......Lame!
has anybody with a blueant tried it with cyanogenmod? i wonder if the different bluetooth stack yields different results. I'd like to see an app update for the blueant software too (had a cheaper headset that stayed connected way better)
When I pair the headset, it connects and works great the first call I get whether using voice command or button to answer. Then every time after that, it won't connect the call.
Maybe it has something to do with the lockscreen or the phone going to sleep. I will have to do some trial and error.
Currently I am trying out the headset with MikFroyo 4.2 (Sense rom) to see if it makes any difference. This rom is really close to stock so maybe it will work?
I will post back with my conclusion.
My headset works fine now. I have found there is a coding issue that exists in certain roms such as Myn's and CM that prevent proper operation. CM seems to have put together a fix for it. Myn's still does not work at this time. It has been requested as a fix for RLS5 final.
Running eVoKINGS Black Titanium with Mik's 4.2 base and my headset works good.
hey where is the fix for CM or is it just in some of the versions? cause i just flashed CM7 and some of the features i loved about the Blue Ant before are not working like it will not play my audio like it did before i use to be able to listen to my music and what not through the blue tooth. if there is a fix for it i would love to get that working again.

Sorry...it's been a while and can't remember where I read about the fix. If I run across again will let you know. Might try downloading "BT mono" from the Market to see if that helps. Not sure if it is effective on AOSP or not but worth a look.

[Q] Probem with Bluetooth on Cyanogenmod 11

Hello.
I have installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my HOX.
although everything looks to be working fine, I still have issues with my Bluetooth.
When driving in my car, and want to place a call, I used to be able to use Cyberon Voice Commander to place the call.
It still works when i use it on my phone without Bluetooth, but when I am connected to my car everything stays silent.
It worked with stock firmware, and I can recieve calls using bluetooth, and I also can use the car stereo to play music from my phone,
but just making a call with the Voice commander does not work.
Does anyone have similar experiences with this, or does anyone have a solution?
Search the thread, been mentioned a lot there !
Hello,
I have been searching, and also looked in the thread for the HTC (HTC One X CyanogenMod 11.0 nightlies, http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583037) but I could not find an issue which is matching my problem.
Unfortunately I am (yet) not able to post this issue in the HTC One Cyagenomod thread...
I don't own a BT headset so I can't properly debug the issue. I know that a lot of people complain about it but there is not much I can do unless they actively try to help. You could provide logs when pairing the device, turning it on and when doing a call.
I might by a BT headset in the future. So there is hope .
Hello,
I was not sure which logfiles you wanted, so I grabbed the output from dmegs and made a logcat and put it in a zip fie.
Here they are.
Thanks for your effort, though.
Thanks for the logs.
Can you describe the behaviour a bit more? What exactly does not work? Imitating the call through Bluetooth, hearing your partner through Bluetooth or recording through Bluetooth. And can you test other apps for me. Like Skype or the normal phone without cyberon.
Do you know if your car is recognized as a normal handsfree Bluetooth device or something special? If you happen to know it.
Also some apps (like Google Now) need to be told to use BT devices.
Hello,
Bluetooth itself is working normally, I can use it to play music on my car's stereo, and when I recieve a call it works fine, I can hear the other party, and they can hear me.
It's just when I want to make a call, I can see Cyberon Voice commander starting up, but I don't hear any sound, and it also does not respond on voice commands.
When I disable Bluetooth, the app works normal.
On stock HTC rom, the app also works fine.
I own a Ford Focus 2011, and it shows up in bluetooth as Ford Audio.
The profiles active are audio for telephone and audio for media (sorry, translated from dutch).
The default Voice Dialer at least I can hear on my headset, haven't tried in the car yet with this version of Cyanogenmod.
It does not seem to respond to the micophone though.
The previous version of Cyagenomod would also not play over my car speakers.
Will try again when I get back home, did not use my car today.
Please test tomorrows nightly. I fixed some issues and I think they address your problems.
Try this Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586808 On the latest Version is a fix for BT maybe it helps
Hello,
just tried to test the "Voice dialer" through my car stereo, I can hardly hear it, and it does not recognize anything I say.
At least not in a way it would be useful for me
With tomorrows version you mean CM-11-20140314-Nightly, or the one after that?
Could not see anything about Bluetooth in the changelog, but I'll wait for the next version.
Will report back.

Hello,
I tested it with yesterday Nighties, and it's working now.
Cyberon Voice Commander could now be used with the Car bluetooth set.
Thank you for solving this.
I hope the logs I uploaded were of any use.
btw, I did take a look at the change log, and the line "tegra3-common: system/audio.h: Use correct DEVICE_BIT_IN bits" didn't ring any bells in my head in combination with Bluetooth.
Anyway, it is solved for me (and maybe for several others as well), so I want to express my gratitude by saying: Thank you very much:highfive:.
