Clicking noise when on a call...... - Palm Treo Pro

I just noticed a small muted clicking noise while on calls.....
Is anyone else experiencing any type of speaker problem?
I have had the phone a couple days and didnt notice it till today after using the media player for a while.
Not sure if its something common or just my device.

you propablyexperience what i found out is caused by the screen saver
i posted the soultion/workaround here

Thanks that solved it.....sure doesnt seem right that you have to disable screensaver though.....lol. The more I play with this phone the more I think I'll buy another one or go back to my tilt.

Sprint Mogul "dink" sounds

In hte last month or so I notice that I have a noise "Dink" when I use my phone. This is either thru history button it dinks to redial some one that earlier called me it dinks... any ideas this can drive me crazy... I checked all of my settings and cannot find a setting or reason why it does this.
Thanks

I have also been plagued by a mysterious 'dink' sound. I haven't taken the time to properly nail down the cause but if you change your devices' sound profile you may find that the 'dink' will stop....
It hasn't bothered me enough to concentrate on but I would be interested in learning the root cause.
---- oh, it may also be related to whether a bluetooth headset is 'engaged' or not.

I am in the same boat. Mine just started about a week ago. The "dink" occurs for me when I hit talk (hard key) when calling someone and when ending a call with the end hard key. It also happens when I use the end hard key to go back to the today screen. I noticed previously (before the "dink" appeared)that there was a subtle noise (quiet beep) when performing these functions, and now it seems to be exaggerated into the "dink" noise. Also, recently my phone started going to standby when I would connect to a call. This started at the same time as the "dink" noise. Strangely, now the phone does not go to standby anymore, but still has that aweful noise. It is slightly irritating.
I have recently upgraded S2U2, S2P, added UI Tweak & Opera Mini. I'm not sure if it really has anything to do with those programs, but thought I would mention it.
I haven't changed any things setting or uploaded any programs. What is strange I went thru all my settings and listened for the same sound and it is not on the list at all. So its a self generated sound. Irritating at the best. So whom on this forums can think of a fix? I know its a Sprint plot to take over our phones..... hehehehehehe

Likewise, pisses me off too. I press buttons by mistake and my phone keeps making the same noise...but it kind of warns me that i hit something when I didnt plan to...still annoying
I think immorion is right. I had it too. Turned off bluetooth for a while, no more 'dink'.

sound stops working!!

in the past week i've found trhe sound in the music player will randomly stop working. the track keeps playing via the movement bar but there's no sound. i've checked the volume and this isnt a problem and there's no sound in coreplayer either when this happens.
the headphones are fine because unplugging them doenst bring the sound on either (via the speaker). the only way to get it working is to reset. it's strnage ebcause sometimes it goes for ages without a prob, soemtimes it happens after 5 minutes...
anyone got any ideas? I'm fairly certain it's a software issue as unplugging the headphone jack makes a noise
ok still dpont know the solution but i just left my phone alone for 30mins after it last stopped making sound and now it's making sound again (without resetting). is it a memory problem??
backup, hardreset, restore. it's the only way to be sure.
Hope you didn't do a hard reset yet as the post above me urged. Like you said once the TF3D mp3 player stops playing (the sound) coreplayer doesn't work either. Now, i'm guessing WM player doesn't work either, but oddly the radio does? One more question, are you running Gyrrator in the background? Let me know and i'll try and help you out promptly.

I'm having the same problem with the sound.
Yes, the radio works, but nothing else, after unplugging the headphones it takes a while for the headphone icon to disappear and when plugged in it takes it longer than usual to appear. Doesnt fix the sound though. I have Gyrator 2 on auto start but i usually close it. At the time of the sound's disappearing it was off.
Mine only does it after i've answered a call through the headset, after the call is finished, the song continues playing and after a while or when the next song comes up, the sound disappears and can only be fixed through a soft reset.
Also mine refuses to display the embedded album art for every song, just chooses one and goes with that cover. And there used to be more covers behing the one running, but now it's just the one.
Hope someone can help me with any of this.
Thanks.

yep spot on, gyrattor 2 is running in the bakground and i havent hard reset. havent actually tried using WMplayer or the radio as i dont use those functions but I'd also assume they prob wont work either
Ok, not guareenting anything, but this might/should fix it. I'm guessing you did this through Gyrrator (though u could have prolly done it via windows too somehow, but my money on Gyrrator). What's prolly happening is that in Gyrrator you have it set to "Suspend Device" for one of the events (to turn off the screen). Instead change this to "Turn Screen Off." Suspending the device causes u to loose sound in most apps (radio still works fine). When you hit the power button, this only turns the screen off and does not actually suspend the device while you're playing music. Let me know if it worked.
good luck
looked thropugh my events which are all the default ones and nothing was set to suspend
could it be something is S2U2? theres an option there which is worded "Dont suspend power" and mine is set to off. Do i need tio change it? (damn double negatives)
My Gyrator had a suspend device event, removed it and we'll see how it goes.

yes, sounds like a double negative to me, so switch that to "on" so it won't suspend power. Let us know if it worked.

Nope, didn't.
Had the same problem today. Only happens after i receive a call via the headset.
Sound is completely stopped working!
The sound on my THD has completely stopped working. I've only had it for a few days, and suddenly when I was working on it, I realized there was no sound coming out of the speakers. It doesnt work in WMP, Coreplayer, the radio or the built in touchflo3dplayer. It does, however, work when I plug in the headset, but still no sound in the speakers though. I've tried soft reset, hard reset, and it doesn't even make a sound in the beginning when HTC logo comes on.
Any ideas about what's wrong, or do I just send it back for support?
i also got a problem with sounds, sometimes when i use youtubeclient, my sound stops working, and just the occasional tac in sound, then i have to reset my HD te get sound again, ive done 3 hard resets, and it even happenend when i booted youtube right after hard reset was done... does somebody know the problem?

Hi, I have the exact same problem. It was perfectly fine till I received an SMS and everything after that, sound from the loud speaker does not work
Same issue here. The problem is caused by S2U2. The audio driver crashes everytime S2U2 locked the phone while there is a high usage of audio (e.g. by the TF3D MP3player). With S2U2 disabled everything stays normal.
I guess it has something to do with the new 1.40 version of S2U2. I just posted a request into the S2U2 thread.
I got the problem, too.
Thanks you found the reason for this sound-problem.
I hope S2U2 will fix this in next version.

I hope so too because there is no workaround. you cannot define the player as an exception because it is part of manila :-(
I also can confirm the problem with S2U2!
It also happen when you use the udio player. Once S2U2 locks the device the audio freezes.
Hi,
I have this same problem too, but haven't got S2U2 installed. I have found out what causes the problem. It only happens when I use the headset that came with the phone. When the button on the microphone to pick up a call is pressed for a longer time, the sound stops, while the mp3 (or other file) keeps on playing.
So that's the way to get the problem to appear... now a solution to make it go away. And not the answer, don't use that headset...
Up till now the only way I have found to make the sound come back is to do a soft-reset.

Sense music player problem

When I am playing music using HTC's sense music player, if I press the end call button to lock the phone, the music stops. This problem has only started happening last night, before it was working fine. The only new programme I have installed is SPB Travellers Demo. Any suggestions to fix this?
PS: if I manually lock the phone, it keeps playing.
It shouldnt happen if your using headphones, if your listening through the speaker then you just have to let the screen turn off on its own, just set it to time out after 30 secs........ its annoying i know.....
havent noticed a fix for this anywhere though.........
I havent really looked for one though to be honest, there probably is one.......
Thanks but I'm sure it used to work before ...

Now that you mention it I only noticed this recently and like you I dont remember it having happened before but because I rarely listen through the speaker I just thought I was imagining things and it had always done that...........
Now I'm really confused........
I know, does anyone know what might have caused this problem or any solutions?
sorry i dont know what causes this but it happens when i use headphones sometimes to - i find if i press the end call button straight after pressing play it stops but if you let it play for a few seconds then press it its ok?
Might be obvious but have you installed the official music stability update?
Yep, as I say, it appeared to be working fine until last night. The only programme I have recently installed is SPB Travellers Demo.

Occasional Popping Noise When Using Screen?

Sometimes when i press the screen to select something(ie. opening an app), a noticeable popping sound is heard. It happens a few times a day but it sometimes gets annoying.
What is the cause of this, i know it's not the camera focusing element.
You sure that it isn't just the touch sounds?

Yeah its not the touch sounds, its pretty faint and happens maybe 3/10 times.
This happens to me too. Im convinced that theres something wrong with my speaker because the sound happens only when i click on something that is supposed to make a sound (except its doesnt because its on silent). It also happens right before an audio file is played

I have exactly the same problem. It sounds like a extra click and it happens occasionally.
i had the same issue, sent for a replacement, and the replacement does the same thing.
anybody figure out whats causing this?

I'm afraid it's a speaker problem and not some kind of bug.
Even when the phone is on silent I hear the popping, very very annoying.
Its a hardware issue. I had it on my first n4 that I had RMA because of the screen.
My replacement device does not suffer from the issue.

Yep, same here - and I just replied to two other threads that sound like the same issue. One person said it happened after upgrading to 4.2.2. I think (and hope) this is a software issue. I just got my new Nexus 4 today, so I hope it's not a hardware issue.
This is happening to me. I thought I was going crazy lol.
Hey Guys,
Thanks for this forum first of all, its awesome. I joined especially for this issue because it seems lots of people have this problem. I noticed this problem when i got my phone yesterday. I have noticed that even when the phone is on silent, the speaker just turns on even though its not suppose to since touch sounds should be off. You can hear this by listening carefully to the speaker.
I got solved of the problem doing the following:
1. Go to settings.
2. Device -> Sound
3. Untick "Touch Sounds" option.
4. No more popping sound problem , although you dont have touch sounds.
It seems that even if you put your phone on silent thetouch sounds are active but dont produce sounds and keeps the speaker on when you press buttons. Might be software problem.
I hope this is helpful

I don't think that solves it. On mine, this occasional click happens with any sound (for example, go into settings for messaging to select an alert sound. If a sound has not been played for a while, the first sound you try will have the soft "click" right before it. Subsequent sounds will generally not have it. So I do not think it is related to only the touch sounds.
I'd guess that the reason it only happens when a sounds has not played "for a while" is that the sound hardware is being turned on right before the sound occurs.

Ohh ok, I guess I had another problem. My problem was that I would hear a soft pop even on silent when hitting buttons.
But after you mentioned the messing alert and hardware being turned on. I noticed it now. I think you might be right, they might be related to the sound hardware being turned on

No sound coming from earpiece - software related pleeeease help!!!

Hey guys, so I've been having a horrible issue with this phone and I can't for the love of god find the reason behind it.
Sometimes my earpiece just doesn't work, be it for calls or anything else. In fact, if I press the play button on a whatsapp voice note and put the phone to my ear even though it turns the screen off it actually pauses the audio, which may already be an indicative that the problem isn't hardware related, as it would just keep playing with no sound coming out if the problem was the actual speaker. This problem comes and goes (but it's there 80% of the time) and when the earpiece works sound is loud and clear. When I reset the phone, it worked all the time, but as soon as I install my apps and all, problem comes back. I really need help to find out what's causing it... Is there a way for me to know if a specific process from some app is doing it? Has anyone had a similar problem??? My phone simply can't be used as a phone right now =(
If u r sure it is software related reflash the software via Odin
