I just got my Qtek 9100 a few days ago and as everybody else I am experiencing the same malfunctions, bugs etc..
I have a problem with the handsfree/speakerphone in the phone app and I couldn't find anybody else with the same problem.
My MIC seems to be OK as I can use it for recording memos, voice dialing and of course - talking. As soon as I activate the handsfree/speakerphone option the other side can't hear me or hears me broken or just plain hiss noise.
Is my unit defective? I think it sounds as a software problem that might be fixed with an update. Anybody else has heard about this problem somewhere? Anyone has experienced this problem? Should I return my unit?
One more thing, at times there is absolutely no audio coming out of the QTEK but that is fixed after I do a soft reset.
Help!
Speakerphone issue as you described is a known issue, hopefully a upgrade will fix this (fingers crossed)
Psshhheeww... now I am relaxed..
Funny.. when you know a bug exists by other people you feel better..
Anyway, we order two units, both have the same apps installed one has this bug and the other doesn't. Lucky me has the bogus unit... anything I can do about it?
And last question for now, any expected date on a rom/windows update for the Qtek 9100?
Thanks!
hey ari.
i do think it's a hardware problem.
like the good old JAM, who had the same problem with the speaker.
anyway, let's wait , maybe there will be a system update to fix this, but i doubt it, since many units dont have that problem and run the same rom.

Hey Nadav,
I've been trying to reach you for the past days.. we have a mutual friend we didn't know of.. you know who it is?
Regarding the speaker phone, I was also sure it is a hardware problem, but think of it, the mic works falwless while recording, while talking with the phone in the good ol' regular way and while using the video cam or voice dialing... so, I think there is a chance that it is a software problem. Also, there were a few times that the handsfree/speakerphone DID work but I couldn't figure out how and when...
If it is a hardware problem I need to return the unit asap before I won't be able to do so... but if it is a software problem, I'll wait.
What do you people say/think?
Besides that, give me a call if you can.
Thanks!
Yes, but can we hope for a ROM update by Christmas?!
I have a Titan through Sprint and have been hearing a high pitched buzzing sound from the back of my phone once in a while. when it starts it wont stop until I soft reset. I have also heard a crackling noise like static. It isnt very loud, but so very annoying! Any ideas? Think I am going to update to the latest radio and dcd rom tonight, now I am running dcd 3.2.0 with 3.35.40 radio. I also have not been able to get my computer to recognize the device through activesync since updating, tried troubleshooting with different pcs, os, reinstalling and hard resetting with nothing. Any ideas?
I have also had the same problem. I some times get the buzzing sound, if not, there's a popping sound that takes place when ever a sound event is supposed to be playing when I have my phone on silent/ vibrate only. I have been dealing with it for a while now and ROM updates or radio updates haven't helped me either. I was thinking it was my phone that was going bad or something, I didn't know someone else had the same issue as well... Weird....

DCD 3.2.6/ radio 3.42.50/ SPL-2.47 Nochem. I was thinking it might be SPB Shell... Do you have any SPB applications?

Okay, let me know. I also haven't heard it in a while, so IDK... It does this when the phones on vibrate/ silent, so I'll leave it like that and see if it makes a popping sound.
Personal take: This seems to me to occur due to custom ROMs, since I have personally NEVER had this issue with a stock ROM, and sometimes have experienced this with custom ROMs from both DCD and NO2.
Had the problem with the original stock XV6800 rom from verizon, been dealing with it ever since.
Well, the popping sounds have come back...
It only happened twice to mine. When I turn off Data it goes away, when I bring it back on, it doesnt come back..
I have had my HD2 for 2 months now I often have problems calling someone as they cant hear me (I can hear them fine) I reboot the device and I can call them and they can hear me fine. This often happens if I run another PGM and then close it and make a call, sometimes after I reboot and make an call and then make another cal the second call wont work.
I contacted HTC and the said hard reset as I knew they would do a rom upgrade I decided to wait rather than go through set up again. I upgraded from 1.48 to 1.66 on the weekend and still have the problem although I must admit it does not happen as much.
There was a similar problem with Samsung Intrepid but could not find a fix for this does any one have any ideas..
I have the exact same problem, i dont know what caused it.
wierd and annoying at the same time.
i just hope it doesnt happen to often.
i have the same problem , i can hear them , they cant hear me and honestly sayin i dont run any programs besides those which came with htc .
same...
i have the same problem, apperently when i make a call people say that they cant hear me or if they do that i tend to break up or sound low like a "robot"...but i can hear them just fine....
i am on att running official 1.66 rom...
Company
by the way what company are u guys on? att or tmobile if any of the 2...
same
im with t-mobile uk , and just about 5mins ago , phoned my gf talked with her for a while then her voice cracked and changed to a "robot" version so hanged up phoned her again and then it was fine , well i dont want to moan , but htc got to do something with so many bugs
used to happen all the time on my old phone, i think its a network issue...
in the first week that I had the phone, I also had some problems, but now I haven't had one for over a month.
with my previous phone I had it also, so I don't mind (and it could be a network problem indeed)
Network issue?
so if its a network issue then what does that mean for those that it still keeps happening too?...
in other words a rom upgrade wouldnt do it justice?...
Same problem here. It happened randomly a few times.
im on o2 germany and i get that thing with the robot voice too.
its wierd
Network problem unllikley
I used the phone here in Australia and had this issue went to Vietnam and had the exact problem I dont think it is a network problem. The robot voice are you using the external speaker as I have had several complaints and when I turn it of they can hear me perfectly...
Same problem here. Is not network related. I am on Vodafone RO. I`m not using Sense UI and still have same problem. If you change to speaker during call and microphone again is start working for that phone call. All the clues point to HTC software. Please confirm if someone of you have this problem but it doesn't use any auto call recording software.
hmmm...
well i havent had the issue with the speaker phone or rather i havent spoken to anyone through the speaker phone yet...
guess ill give it a shot and ill switch to the regular mic during the call to see if the person can hear me better...
i hope this isnt a hardware issue, better yet i hope the next rom fixes this up...
paying so much money for a phone that cant even do what a flip phone could do?
Yeap me too. Voda UK....
I un-installed some games and other apps and the problem has now gone. Think it must be something to do with 3rd party software.
It coincided with the whole phone being laggy and unresponsive so i have now flashed to a later rom and phone is like new!!!
DB
...
what rom did you change too? official or is it a cooked rom?....
i tried the switching from speaker then to the mic and again i have the other person still saying that they cant hear me...
this is very frustrating....

I don`t remember what ROM I had at the time but yes it was cooked.
Now i changed and i stop Resco Audio Recorder from recording my calls.
This is definitely a software problem. The "robotic voice" is a proof of processor overloading from some messed up processes. First culpits in my opinion areSense UI or some HTC code or Resco Audio Recorder.
Now I am on SPB Shell instead of Sense and Resco off.

so with the spb shell is it working now? i mean do u still get the messed up calling on the other line where the person constantly says "i cant hear you" lol
besides that i actually switched off Sense UI and actually hard reset my phone and made a call but the problem still persist...
has anybody tried changing the sim card? i mean i went over to att today and i got a new sim card when i made a call i still had sense UI on and it worked flawlessly but then i put my old sim card in and then i switched back to the new one (had to import the contacts) and it messed everything up the problem came right back...
Also there seems to be such few people with this problem? maybe we got faulty phones?....
Damn, this phone is crap!!!!!!!
No one can here me again soft reset hasn't helped.
This problem is a nightmare!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mine is working fine now (in this moment anyway).
My actual ROM Leo lite v2.1WWE (30.1.2010)
Anyone had this yet? Basically after flashing EVERY version of Damages 2.1 roms and Flipz 2.0d, I seem to have this odd issue where I loose all sound input and output. I noticed first when I was using Flipz, but a wipe and flash of DC 2.05 did the same thing. Weirdest part is, that it's fine for a while after a reboot, then suddenly happens and won't work until another reboot. My only thought is for some sort of software conflict or something, but right now my Hero is basically unusable as a phone since noone can hear me and I can't hear them.
Thoughts? Lil Help?

I have the exact same issue. Very strange and rare. So the occasional reboot fixes it but annoying at times.

I have come across the same today on the 2.05 revision. It started this afternoon, since I have had to reboot 5 times. The latest was only about an hour or so apart. When I make calls, I do not hear any sound, no ring tone, not the other person. Also adjusting the ring volume with the volume keys does not make any sounds. Even on my bluetooth headset I do not get any sound. No rings on incoming calls, no speaker phone ... absolutely nothing. This has become a huge issue an I'm going back to my 1.5 image at this point.
Actually, reading through threads about both ROMS, I'd say there are quite a few people starting to encounter this problem...has anyone with this issue gone back to 1.5 to see if it goes away then?
S
just a note, the people on the other end when making a call can't hear anything either but the call does go through. i had to use the g/f BB to call and my buddy thought it was his phone. I'm so mad because I thought this was a done deal but looks like I gotta go back to 1.5
+1 same issue on Fresh 2.0d
When it happened it affected incoming and outgoing calls, earpiece, speakerphone, microphone -- the works. Person on other end could not hear anything either. Fixed with reboot.
me and my coworker both have this issue with our heroes, he couldn't stand it and went back to fresh 1.1 and it went away
I still get the issue once a day, full reboot solves the issue.
I cant seem to pinpoint when it happens, it just happens.
it started with the first fresh 2.0 and then continued with every 2.1 i have tried
i couldn't find a post in this forum relating to a fix for this, unless someone can prove me me wrong and i hope someone does
+1 same issue on Fresh 2.0d and DCv1
Same as others, a reboot will fix it but by that point you just missed a call.
Or if the sound goes out you might miss a few calls from not being able to hear the phone ring.
yes it is a very large issue. im about to run some tests and i will find out what causes it. hopefully i will have a solution tonight for everyone but its going to be hard.
also the issue effects all sound on the phone and pegs the cpu pretty bad. you cant adjust sound lvls or hear anything from either speaker at all.
im afraid the problem will lie in the boot.img with a driver for sound. because dc2.0r2 did have this issue and also has an incomplete boot.img we may have to deal with no trackball. anyways ill report back asap

Thanks. You're speaking greek to me as far as the boot.img and all that but if you have an idea of what's going on I'm all ears on fixing it. If there is any sort of info we can provide just let us know.
Im here to help as well, If you need any testers I am willing to do what ever is needed! Anything to fix this problem!

Of course it is,its the fix(hopefully) for it
I want to know when will the sound problem be fixed completely? im currently using fresh 1.5 because all of the 2.1 have problems with the sound.. when someone calls i cant hear them and they cant hear me! i cant be resetting my phone everytime this happens. the fix that they have dont work also it might prevent it from happening so often but all my calls are important... does any one know when this will be fixed fully or why is this happening? how to prevent it ? mayb its the cdma settings? Thanks alot
The audio problem for the effected phones will be fixed when official 2.1 comes out.
i found whats causing it.... so who has a nice rom with the older kernel before .29 .. wats the kernel ? lol
The issue is caused by audio drivers in the kernel not resetting. we do not have the source for .29 kernel so there is no fix. we dont know why this effects some people and not others. Since the audio drivers do not reset it does not allow anything to read them. so it continues resetting and resetting and this causes the cpu to be pegged by the constant retry and retry.
Any 1.5 or overclocked 2.1 Rom
The audiofix posted by avalaunch worked briliantly for me. I have not had the issue once since he posted his fix about two weeks ago.
Also just so you know, zens my touch Rom did not have the audio issues for me. Just be sure to reboot after the first boot to completely get everything working.
which fix the audiofx or audiorc?? or u on the newest one for testers? i hate the my touch roms omg lol whats the older kernel version
wait another thing could it be because we didnt update the radio ?? or u guys doubt that 1?
I have had the audio issue with every ROM i had used until i flashed the Dachdroid 2. Ever since i have not had any kind of issues with phone freezing or caller not hearing me when i answer. Its very strange, but i wanted to post to see if any of the Devs can find out the differences between whats in this ROM and all the othersthat would make it work. Again i have had audio issues with all except this one.
What is this Audio problem?
I've run ROMs with both the .29 and hacked up .27 kernels.
Is this a bluetooth audio problem? Or handset audio?
The problem occurs randomly, for me at least. It's an issue I've had as others have that no audio at all comes through after an unknown time. I notice mine is triggered when I get off the phone with someone, I get 'call lost' and then all my audio is gone and have to reboot to get audio back. It affects BT and handset for me.
Iv never had the problem and iv changed my radio quite a few times. I think im on my 4th radio.
Maybe later at night you could flash a 2.1 rom, change to a newer radio and give it a few test to see if it works.
Flipz has alot of radios and I think the stock one on his site.
(IF anyone trys flashing a radio this is really the only way you can brick your phone. DO not flash any radio unless it says CDMA htc hero. All of them are on flipzmode website. You cant go wrong if you get them from him.)
the issue will hopefully be fixed when they release 2.1 officially. and im still looking into the issue a little at a time. 99% of people reported that one of the two updates put together fix it.
the only other cause could be a hawrdware issue. like the moved one resistor on the board and this causes something in the kernel to restart drivers. idk that is a very very very simple thought. but anyways like i said hopefully it get fixed!
Dont know if this is related but its absolutely killing me
Just today the headset icon popped on and wont go away. I cant hear anything when using the phone because its stuck in this mode. I plug in headphones and the voice dialer starts. I can hear through the headphones, but taking them out does nothing.
Anyone have any info on this or if there is anything I can do?
yea thats y im on fresh 1.5 i hate the 2.1 simply because of the audio problem coming from the headset !!! andn darch droid2? does everything work correctly like camera ect ... i hope its not that dam mytouch theme that 1 sucks ill try tonight

yeah...Ive come to the conclusion that 2.1 is just not going to work for me...went back to fresh 1.1 and everything is good. Its funny though, Ive been on 2.1 since all of the work was done and never had a problem until now. Ive been on damn near every 2.1 rom and didnt have an issue. Now all of the sudden the handset icon shows up and I cant hear anything unless I put in headphones. Tried all of the audio fixes and searched the entire net looking for a resolution. Hopefully the official comes soon. I am definitely going to miss 2.1.

That's more than likely a mechanical problem. Take it in to Sprint.

I would think so too, but I went back to fresh 1.1 and its fine...
I'd go back, but then I'm stuck with not being able to receive picture messages. So far I get the audio problem every other day, and it's a simple reboot.

a simple reboot ? a simple headache lol idk about u guys i dont want to have to restart my phone when i just got a call that i couldnt answer !! ..... is there any newer roms with the older kernel?? because i dont understand the whole kernel thing...
This audio loss issue is reason number one why all of the people who say "Who cares when HTC and Sprint release 2.1? We already have it!" are just total idiots.
