Just want to check whether anyone else have the same problem as me.
When I plug in the HTC-supplied earphones, it won't beep through the speakers when a new SMS comes in, instead, it beeps through the earphones. I usually connects the earphones when I'm driving in case I have to pick up any calls but I don't stick 'em in my ears all the time, so I end up not knowing whenever a new message comes in, which is pretty annoying. But the speaker rings just fine with an incoming call with the earphones connected, no problems there whatsoever.
Anybody have any idea how to fix the problem so that the phone throws out a new message audio alert through the speakers (when the earphones are connected)?
Nobody else having the same problem??

Well yes ive noticed it does that, but i hadn't noticed it as a problem..... Bit of annoyance i'll wager, but then you shouldnt be reading texts when driving anyway, its far more dangerous than talking on a headset, perhaps thats why?..... hehe
Finally!! I thought I was the only one having this problem!
Well, it's true that I shouldn't be reading text while driving but surely it's fine to read my text replies when I'm stopped at a red light?
Anyway, receiving a reply is probably one of the best way to confirm that my previous outgoing text didn't get stuck in the outbox.
Hehe yea, I get ya. Just playing devils advocate.
It does seem a rather strange decision.
I do however have a workaround for you, even if it is pretty grim.
Start the fm radio, activate loudspeaker, then mute the radio. Hey presto new message tone comes out of the main speaker.
I havent tested to see what effect that has on using the headset for calls, I dont drive so it's not a priority, but might be worth looking at if it is that important to you.
Edit - well it certainly still rings through teh earphones when in this state..... further testing i'll let you do.

same problem.
dont know, what i can do.
im not sure about when headphones are plugged in but sometimes i don't receive notifications when headphones aren't plugged in
Different version, yes, *problem*
This also applies to calls. I have my headphones in and walk away from the phone. It doesn't ring when the headset is plugged in! So, I constantly miss calls. Anyone have an idea about how to make it ring on the device when the headphones are plugged in???? (I really don't think it makes sense that I have a whole new discipline of plugging and unplugging the headphones all day long!)
/P

Hello everyone, my Hermes worked a looong time very fine but now i cant hear the normal "beep" when i adjust the volume. Also i hear no conversation when i phone somebody. Alarm sound is off too. I hardresetted it once but it didn't help. The weird thing is: I can hear the ringing sound when i get a phone call?!
It looks like the other person can't hear me either, thats a bit weird because i thought this isnt a speaker but a microphone problem... Two components crashed on one day? WTF? Need help
I have seen this problem with a different htc phone.
their may be a bit of dirt across the miniusb contacts making the phone think it is connected to a headset.
plugin a mini usb cable and waggle it round a bit then test calling someone hopefully that should cure it for you.
I have a very very similar problem with my Vario II. The sound is VERY intermittent. Sometimes it rings but when I pickup there is no sound either way, from the earpiece or mic, the other person cannot hear me. Most of the time the phone just vibrates (set to Ring and Vibrate) so I know there is a message or a call coming...not that I can answer the call. Tried soft resetting it and even changing the ROM, only works for about 5 minutes then the sound is gone again.
The device only works as a phone with a blue tooth headset, the rest of the time it is just a PDA....that vibrates.
This has been bugging me since i got the phone
If i am on my handsfree talking to someone, and get an incoming call waiting call, the person who i am talking to can no longer hear me. its a big problem
anyone have this problem/sort it out?
is no one else getting this?

My experience is that, when there is a call waiting call comes in, the speaker phone turns on by itself. You may check if you have the same situation. Your other side cannot listen to you because you are far away from your phone and the speaker phone cannot pick up your voice.
Here is the fix from the forum if your case falls into this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3336118

Hi!
I have a problem. Recently I 've installed new rom (touch-it 4.0)on my xperia. Everything was fine but when I plugged my phone to hi-fi, I started having problems.After i unplugged the phone the headphone icon was still on the display bar. I've tried to switch off the phone or even remove the battery but the problem still exist.I am not able to even make a call, without my headset, cause phone still acting like sth was plugged to the mini jack.
Please, do anybody know a solution to this case???
best regards,
Karol
Same...
I've got the same problem. I didn't install any Mod Roms, but Ive heard it could be a hardware problem. All the suggetions didn't work... like unplugg it when you just started a call...
My main problem is that it doesn't play any sounds anymore... Coreplayer says: "Wave Output: Device error!"
Maybe its because i've installed WOW-HD Sound app...
Shouldn't have done so... I guess..
But the headset problem still exists besides the sound prob, cause ive read a lot of stories about exactly this bug...
It's the same at my phone: The headset symbol doesn't disappear when you unplug your headset...
I think i got the worst case: My sound doesnt work so i even cant make calls with the headset... means, left for me is sms and Internet...
Thats why I bought a mobile phone
having thesame icon on my phone too cant hear nothing when receiving a call not ontill i slip in my headphone but my ringer works good thats the reason its amazing that i can hear my ring tone when am been called but cant hear nothing when accepting a call ,till i slip i my head phone,anyone got a solution? try let us know, thanks in advance
Hi there everyone.
I am a new user of an HTC Hero.
I have a problem on incoming calls or sms.
I leave the HTC to lock by itself and, when i have an incoming call or sms, only the screen turns on. I can see the number of the dialer who is calling me on the screen but NO ringtone sounds from the phone. The same problem occurs when an sms is received. No ring is sounded by the phone.
I have checked everything concerning the sound preferences and (i believe) that i have not left anything un-touched.
Can anyone please "save" me from madness???
Thanks in advance!
I can't say for sure this is what happened, but humor me for a second and check a few things:
Of course double check that your volume is all the way up.
When you use the volume rocker on the side of the phone, does it beep?
Do you have any music on it? If so, play it without the headphones plugged in. Do you hear the music?
When you turn speakerphone on during a call, do you hear the other person?
Do you hear any of these sounds using headphones? Do you hear people through the earpiece on a call?
If you don't hear any sound from any of the first few bullets, but you do hear things through the headphones and earpiece, it may be the speaker in the back that's broken. Again, this is just one possible cause, but I had it happen to me. I have no idea how to fix it other than to send it back to HTC or attempt to replace it yourself (I don't know how to do this and would not recommend it if you're not comfortable with it!). Thankfully, my phone fixed itself after a few days (well, with a little help, I accidentally dropped it on the floor from a height of about four feet, but again, I wouldn't recommend that!). Anyway, just a thought, hope it at least helps you diagnose the problem.

I noticed that when I was still using a stock ROM, im currently using the stock tweaked which is found on the development section, its like a static or white noise on or before a sound is played via the headphone jack. Its pretty annoying, my galaxy note also had the same problem.

leaking? i think that is a feature of the phone to notify you of any incoming sms/phonecalls/emails/etc..
this is NOT a bug, and of course if you put your phone into silent mode this will not happen
Didnt he mean the static sound that we can some times hear via the headset out when say tapping something on the screen or even by just browsing the gallery coz thats how I understood it lol!

hmm well you try it yourself if this not only happen in my tab your's will also happen so basically when you put the headset in all sound supposed to be in your headset... but in my case the notification sound will not play on headset but instead leaking out with the sound of music that i played (in my scenario i put headset to listen music )
