Sound has just died - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hi folks,
I seem to have a problem with my sound - on my o2 XDA-mini-s.
The volume is full on both sliders [accessed from the slider on the left hand side. but I cannot hear my ringtone or anything when I access the menu.
Plugging into the the earphones socket I can hear everything through the headphones. This has happened previously and a soft reset always sorts it - not this time - any ideas folks?

Try this if you cannot hear the ringer or ringtone preview. Go directly to step 3 on the first post. You may need a registry editor. I use TotalCommander.

XDA Exec - loss of sound from all speakers except phone ring

All sound from stereo speakers, phone speakers , mic are not working.

I wish it was that simple, but alas I tried a lot , and it looks like I might have a faulty one unless anyone got an idea
I find it hard to believe that it's a hardware issue if both the external speakers and the headphones don't work at the same time yet the ringtones do work.....
I hope it's something simple and you don't have to resort to a phone return.
No Sound
Has any one found a solution for this problem, as I have the exect same issue. All sounds on exec dont work execpt when receiving an incoming call, when call is answered cant hear a thing, does work though with headset.
Have tested and sms, mms etc sound doesnt work, movies and music doesnt work either.
This is not going to help :roll: but I had a similar problem a few months ago on my XDA2. Phone rang, I tried to answer it, but couldn't hear a thing. No other sounds worked. Headphone worked perfectly. Soft resets achieved nothing.
Thought my XDA2 had died after 18 months of service, but then suddenly an hour later it all started working again and did from then on.
I have no idea why this happened or whether I did anything to fix it, but the problem isn't unique to the Universal.
I'm running PocketZenPhone. Maybe that could be interfering with the sounds somehow? Dunno.
Edit: I doubt it's a hardware problem so I definitely wouldn't risk sending my shiny Exec back to O2's monkeys for them to replace with another broken one. Did you try a hard reset? I didn't on the XDA2 but maybe it'd help. :?:
Try this...
Maybe you should try this, I use it in order to transfer all the sounds (including music) to the BT Headset when I am at the gym:
-Get Total Commander
-Go to the registry editor
-Tap or search for this directory: \\\registry\HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\
-Change the value of the String LaunAPEnable to value "0".
-Now press and hold the main button on the headset (the one you use to answer calls and transfer the call to the speaker of the Universal) and try if this worked.
-If you succeed or not revert the value of the string back to "1" or you will not be able to use VoiceCommand.
Hope this can help you.
Problem SOLVED. No sound
I had the same issue with my Jasjar. When you plug in the headphones it turns off the speakers except for incoming ring tones. The inside of the ear jack got stuck. I had to take apart the unit and bend the clip. It contacted so that it didnt' think there was a headphone inserted. I don't ever remebering plugging in a headphone to even have cause this problem. Its just a very loose contact. So when you get in there you bend it to make it stronger. You will understand once you have it apart.

SPV M500 Phone Problems

Hi chaps,
I have a SPV M500 but for some reason it is very quiet when on the phone. In a busy street I can barely hear what the other person is saying. I have put the volume on maximum but still very quiet. Is there anyway I can make it louder?
Also, I can't figure out why the 4 buttons surrounding the cursor button locks from time to time preventing me making calls for no apparent reason but I can still use the cursor and the touch screen. This usually occurs after I've synchronised my phone or I have left it for a while.
Any ideas?
Cheers
you might want to post this in the Magician forum since that is what the m500 is. (its a bit more busy in there)
volume slider
Just slide this button up during a call. You should here the volume going up
edit/don't know why image doesn't show, but click it and it does

			
				
Thanks I know about the slider, it is on maximum but it is still very quiet... I have no idea why.
Sorry moderators, can you please move this to the Magician section please!
thanks saldous.
always best to try the simple things first. What's it like on speakephone (hold down the (green)answer key).
Was it loud before? Tired a soft reset

Speaker phone works fine. Thanks I didn't know it is activated by holding down the green button!
I've only had the phone for a week, its always been like this but just wondered if anyone knew how I could tweak it to make it slightly louder.
Would a soft reset wipe the memory etc?
soft reset doesn't wipe the memory; it's like rebooting windows.
Hard reset will wipe all memory, like formatting your harddrive (although windows is still there, but "reset" to factory settings)
Are you turning up both sliders on the volume control. There's one for windows and one for the phone.
There aren't really any tweaks to increase sound volume, but it's not very loud to begin with.

No sound :-(

Hi,
Following on from my phone app problems, my XDA Mini S has now stopped producing sound alltogether!
I believe the problem is that the phone thinks i have the headset plugged in, as i can hear sounds through the suppluied headphones but nothing when they are unplugged - not even during a call.
Please can someone make a suggestion? I have tried soft resetting.
:?:
EDIT: I should point out that i can hear the ringtone when the phone rings through the speaker but absolutely no other sounds - nothing in calls and nothing from the speakers - WMAs etc.
try unplugging and plugging it back in a few times (quite a few in one go)
the headphone "sensor" is usually hardware which picks up when something is physically plugged in .
not sure what else to try
if u have had it less then 30 days then get a replacement next day from o2.
or hard reset ? but backup first!
Hmm,
I just can't work this out. How come the ringtone plays through the speakers? If the phone thought the headset was plugged in would it not just play the ringer through the headset? Can anyone confirm this please?
Stupid phone :-(
Mine did the same, ringtone played OK but could only make calls with the headset plugged in. Thouhgt I was going to have to return it, but ried pushig the jack i alittle further before pulling it out and it all started working OK. I've not had the problme since.
hi guys , i have problem with sound as well , i just unblocked the simlock with lokiwiz02b , and suddenly there was no sound at all , i can call but there is no sound , i tried to play ringtones nothing works , headset is not solution as well , when i tried to run media player message - no hardware device to play sound or device not available , and everytime i open the volume control it's show that it's mutted and i can't scroll it up to make any sound all i can say it seems that system drivers for sound are ****ed up,
anybody have any idea how to solve it? i have still few days to return it but i played with this simlock so i'm afraid they can charge me extra for repair ,
Have you tried a hard reset?

My Charmer, has the opposite problem. My speaker went dead on my suddenly during a phone conversation on speaker phone mode. So, I can't hear any phone rings and stuff, but still able to make calls, with or without the ear phone.
Yes, confirm (for my charmer) that if you have your ear phone in, speaker won't give you any sound. So, don't think it is that earphone plug sensor thing problem.
yes i tried hard reset but everything still the same -no sound at all
No sound on earpiece, microphone ok
Well I tried the suggestions in the forum and still it didn't work. I then thought maybe there's dust and stuff in the workings, blew into the earpiece and it worked.
It's worth a try!
Hope this helps.
Hello to everybody.. I had the same problem for months and last week i gave my wizard to the assistance cause I feded up!
I solve the problem with 70 euros but now it-s better.

Wizard doesn't ring, please help

I have a problem: when I put my mda on "loud" the phone doens't make sound when someone calls me. Only the light goes on. In the settings "Ring type" is vibrate and ring, but still no sound. Tried also just ring but nothing happened, only light goes on. Even tried different ringtones, but that's not helping either. I have the WM5SE rom, but don't think that the rom gives me this problem, because I had this on other roms also, like the NBD series. When I first install the rom, everything is working fine, but after a few weeks it starts giving me this problems. I switch a lot between ring and vibrate, could this be the problem? Does anybody please no how to fix this?? Ferreira maybe you have some experience with this? Anyway I hope someone can help me, because I missed a lot of calls because of this problem.
Thanks in advance.
Check your radio version. I think the best is 2.19
And when you said it doesnt ring, does it vibrate (i.e. does the phone knows it has call comming in, and do something to respond to it).. or just a speaker problem?
Try hard reset. If it doesnt work then it may be an issue of headphones slot jam.

I have radio 2.69.11, ring type is "vibrate and ring". It does vibrate, but it doesn't ring. You know what the problem is?

It is probably (as vlodeck mentioned) headphone jack jammed. If thats the case, you should not be having any sound from the phone at all (i.e. no music, no notification sound, no SMS sound). I had this problem before, and I do not want to make this sound dirty, but you can fix the problem by poking it Poke your headphone in and out in and out

headphone works, music works also, even without headphone, so that's not it. I tried flashed radio 2.19.11 T-Mobile NL. No I just have to find someone who can call me to test it. will post the result.
hmm.. that is iiiinnnnnttttteeerreeessstting. from what it seems, chances are probably the ring tone you are using is somewhat, not compatible. Tryign changing it to a default ring tone, WAV, shorter one, that is not in the storage card.

I tried this also, it didn't work. I think I'm going crazy. If I change the ringtone and test it by pressing "play", then it works! But if someone calls me, I can only see that someone is calling, but I hear nothing! And if it's on "vibrate and ring", then it vibrates but doesn't ring! Isn't this crazy??
this may sound crazy, but just to check, is your volumn up? push your volumn slider up? make sure both the volumn controls are up.

I found the problem! thanks to you of course. I did this before but now I no the volume slider is broken. only the right volume was up and the left was all the way down. So that caused the phone not ringing. Anyway, I just have to do this with my finger/stylus in the future, so thank you for your help!
CASE CLOSED.
Its interesting but in WM5 i had all sorts of problems once where my music would not play at all. I had all the volumes turned up and all that and it still wouldnt play, then I turned the volume on Windows Media Player down to 95% and it started playing again, and i turned it back up to 100% and it was fine. Little minor glitch me thinks

HTC Cruise and Parrot CK3000

I have just bought a Cruise and it connects fine to my Parrot CK3000. The problem is however that the sound is much to loud. Changing it with the button on the side does not help. It makes no difference if the slide is completely at the top or at the bottom.
Does anybody know how to change the volume on the carkit??
When you are in a call just use the dial thingy of the carkit and turn it counter clockwise. Should bring the volume down.
You can also set the volume in the settings of the carkit when you're not in a call.
edit: Which one do you have btw? Cause I'm beginning to thing you have the new CK3000 without the display . Although my guess is that turning the dial when in a call does the same: change the volume.
edit2: I've just come up with a brilliant idea!: http://www.parrot.com/usa/support/userguides

CK3000 does have neither display nor wheel.
Only accept/refuse buttons.

Oh my, thát one . Damn parrot calling all their carkits 3000 :/
Online manual here for that one:
http://www.parrot.com/guide_chm/CK3000/
Which says nothing more than:"Setting the volume: Volume is adjusted on your phone".
I'm not sure how the volume might work with the bluetooth connection. Take into consideration that changing the volume when you're not in a call only changes the system volume. When you're having a phone call, only then you are changing the volume of the call.
When clicking the speaker icon when you're not having a phone call shows two sliders, one for the system volume and one with a little phone as icon. That one is not for the call volume but for the ringer volume.
So in short there are three types of volumes. System, ringer and call. Playing with the system volume and the call volume could be worth a shot.
Yes that is the problem. When I adjust the volume during the call nothing changes. The volume slider is shown, but it makes no difference if it is at the max or the min setting. Somehow this does not work. I have software version 3.13.
Any suggestions??
Hi Tim,
just click on the speaker at the top to change the volume DURING a call.
regards Yoshi
Hello Yoshi,
I tried this but I got the same result. I can slide the volume indicator to minimal but the sound volume stays the same.
Any other ideas maybe.
I encounter the same problem that Tim B. I can not modify the sound of CK3000 from the phone.
When I change the volume during a call, no changes. The volume is too loud !

This is a Touch Cruise problem.
It does not allow to change volume on blutooth handsfree profile.
You'll encounter the same problem with bt headset. Only there, you're usually able to adjust volume on the headset itself.
Apperently HTC thought that there aren't any bluetooth handfree device around which do not allow to change volume.
In my car the ck3000 is just loud enough, but I use bigger speakers.
Sascha
