HTC Sensation Speakerphone does not work on WIFI

I am having the same issue. Speakerphone does not work over Wifi. Person on the other end cannot hear me and I often cannot hear them. When I am not using Wifi, speakerphone works fine. Version 2.3.4 seemed to improve speakerphone volume, but it still does not work over Wifi. I contacted HTC tech support and they said while they were unaware of the problem, but it is possible that it exists. They said they would investigate. We will see. Not sure whether the HTC Amaze has the same problem.
[HTC Sensation] 946.5Diesel:
I had the same issue till I S-offed and flashed a new ROM. I think it's something with TMO's factory ROM they have the speaker function turned way down and my first Sensation would do just what urs is.

Rec: Unlock (S-off) and flash a new ROM (I personally am running CoreDroid 2.4)
[HTC Sensation] tuner562:
I'm on ARHD 3.6.2 and non speaker phone works ok, but on speaker I've been told its hard to hear.
[HTC Sensation] mr.abc:
I am also having a same issue. I've opened up a ticket with t-mobile. T-mobile techs are looking into this issue. Yesterday I went to the store from which I purchased my sensations and showed them the issue. We tested the issue with other HTC android devices but only sensation is having this Issue.
[HTC Sensation] jcc8690:
I noticed this problem a couple months ago, and am surprised there hasn't been a software update to fix it. In the meantime, I just shut off wifi if I expect to make a phone call using the speaker phone, which is somewhat annoying.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I have recently been playing around with my phone and discovered that with HTC Sense, you can create folders similar to iOS. These folder can be placed anywhere on the homescreen and you can drag apps into them. You can open the folder to view or open the apps that you dragged in the folders.

I don't know how many people know about, but I don't think it is common knowledge or an obvious feature.

To add a folder to your homescreen:

1) Go to the personalize menu

2) Go down to the folders section

3) Press 'New Folder'

4) Drag the newly created folder to anywhere on your homescreen

To rename the added folder:

Note: Sometimes this is buggy and doesn't rename the label.

1) Open the folder

2) On the top of the folder where it says "New Folder," long press. A menu to rename it should come up

3) Rename it

4) Confirm

5) The folder should be renamed

These folders can be pretty useful to help navigate to certain apps, clear up clutter, make everything neater, etc.

Screenshots of what folders look like:

Thanks for sharing, although it's a feature that has bee. The used since the beginning of android, and we'll known in sense!
[HTC EVO 3D] thesparky007:
Useful feature but its been around since donut? May be even since android 1.6
[HTC EVO 3D] YoungSinema:
Nice try, but this is like one of the oldest features ever. You may not get many nice responses in this thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Alright, I'm glad you created this thread, because I've discovered the same kind of cool trick (ala 'Easteregg') with Sense 3.0:

You may not have noticed, but you now have something called 'Market' is your list of applications (trust me, it's there.):

If you click this EXACTLY one time, a portal will open, prompting you to enter your gmail account and password. If you do this EXACTLY right, a Sense feature will be unlocked that will allow you to install a whole slew of new applications DIRECTLY to your phone (kind of like itunes). There are TENS of custom apps available that you will want to try out. In fact, I wrote one of them myself: a little game/(time-killer) called 'Angry Birds', which is available right now for FREE.

(If you enjoy my little game, please hit my 'thanks' button.)

EDIT: Pics (as proof).

The "Market" (if you did it right) looks like this:

In game pic from the 'bird game':

(PROTIP: Try to knock down the 'pigs'.)

Let me know if this Easteregg works for anyone else. :) :) :)

not really like iOS folders b/c it doesn't show the small icons of each app inside on the folder icon. I highly suggest smarter shortcuts b/c of its customization it offers.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I would thank, if this was a feature to add a folder in the app drawer. But I was doing this with my Hero back in the day.
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
Is that sarcasm or did you not know that 1.6 is Donut?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Thanks, I tried it, it worked.

Seriously though, I thought this was introduced in sense 3.0, just let the thread die...
[HTC EVO 3D] mazook98:
Sorry, I just COULDN'T resist.

Thanks for being a good sport about it. :)

Clearly everyone that visits this forum has had an HTC Android phone from the beginning. There's no possible way that there is even one person who didn't know about the folder option.

I'd noticed the folder option a few times but never really looked into it. The OP shed some light on something that not everyone may have played with yet and he's been burned at the stake for it.

And we wonder why general people and devs are leaving XDA.
[HTC EVO 3D] mail2n:
Sheese people are so mean and I thought Apple fanboys were bad. :(

I too never played with the folder. I've seen it but never tried it until today. Thanks OP.
[HTC EVO 3D] Outer Marker:
Actually, Sense greatly extends the inventory of possible applications and intents available to this Android feature. Beforehand you all go and dismiss the OP, I invite you to take a closer look at the different shortcuts and application settings that you can place in a folder.

If you haven't tried it you shouldn't knock it. Try my Motorola Photon... it has none of this. In fact the feature set is actually reduced over stock Android.

Thanks OP for reminding us of this.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] just2great:
Okay so I spilled some juice on this badboy and well it sat in the juice until I got home and realized. I immediately threw it in some rice (3 days) and thankfully it did dry out. The unit was working fine and fully functional except for obvious signs of water damage when the screen is own like splotches under the screen. And there is a clearly visible one (even when screen off) in the lower right corner. Some days later it stopped powering on all together. Here is where you all come in. Has anyone had to have their unit repaired third party? If so please suggest a third party fix. I am within my 30 days of purchase so do you think Best Buy or ASUS will repair/replace the unit? No, I don't have the extended warranty from Best Buy but I could still purchase it. Should I do that and file a claim in a couple months? How about purchasing a third party extended warranty then filing a claim in a couple months? Help me, help me PLEASE!
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
You can probably get it repaired, but I'm sure it will cost you unless you already have water damage protection. Accidents happen. If BB will let you get a policy now, go for it. But just know that you're basically committing fraud, as you'd have to lie about the date of damage.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] finalhit:
seems like you already know what you want to do...you just need people to share the moral burden :P

getting it fixed by asus is prabobly going to require screen replacement, which is i think 50% of the cost of the device. at least this way, you can sleep at night.

or, just get a HP touchpad and hope the android port is a success.

on a completely absolutely unrelated note...i just want to brag about this, my TF keyboard's response is aboslutely on point right now...no lag, nothing.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr.Clark:
Check to see if it's covered by your home contents insurance, some sort of accidental damage clause.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captmiddy:
If you can still buy the warranty from Best Buy then buy that, then wait a bit and bring it in. Understand you will likely be without the unit for a long while as they attempt to get it repaired. Bringing it back to Best Buy in this state however would be wrong because you damaged it. The Best Buy plan allows you to damage your device and they will repair it, so while it may be morally questionable to buy the warranty after you do the damage, I would say it is less so than the other options. Understand that Best Buy has the right to refuse to sell you the warranty after the fact if you don't bring the device in first, so it is possible you won't even be able to buy it.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magicdave26:
Home insurance job
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SilverZero:
I agree, at least you already have that insurance. Or possibly renter's insurance if you're in that situation.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captmiddy:
With home insurance the deducible may be higher than the cost of the device. Unless the device is scheduled, or you have a 'computer' clause that considers it scheduled even though it isn't. If this was a $2000 device then sure it would make sense, but for a $400 device it is unlikely home owners is going to help a lot.

The only reason I would advocate buying the warranty then using it through Best Buy is that if they are willing to sell it to you sight unseen it almost serves them right to get stuck with a repair like this. Have you bought a cell phone from them, they essentially advocate running over you phone when you want to replace it to use the black tie service. They are essentially selling abuse insurance with the understanding that most people won't do it. Which is why the extended warranty through them is so expensive. Most companies make a TON of money on extended warranties, very few of these warranties ever get used.

One thing I would not advocate is any deception on the part of purchasing the plan. If you have to sign anything saying it is in good working order, or you have to tell them it is in good working order then you should stop right there and walk out.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Ok guys so I usually am on XDA on my phone and don't actually see everything like in the browser version (such as the damn thanks button), but anyways I noticed that I am now a senior member (I feel like I'm a legit XDA member now lol). How does one acheive this and what are the different levels of "membership" you could say? Just curious.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmeadows013:
Junior member is 0-19 posts

Member is 20-99 posts

Senior Member is 100+ posts

Recognized Developer you need to apply for, and you must have developed several unique roms

Moderator you must be a moderator lol
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Ok cool. I figured it would take more to be a senior member, kind of like becoming a RD. So even total noobs like me can be a Senior Member. Lol Just our of curiosity, what does it take to be a moderator?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmeadows013:
I think you have to apply for a position. Usually in the General section they will have positions available in a post. If you get it, then you get to moderate people and delete posts, as well as have the title.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Thanks for the info... On a side note, I noticed you put in your Sig a hybrid ROM that you have in the works. Can you give me any details about it? Like sense version, gb or froyo, and stuff like that? New roms are intriguing, but if you can't or don't want to post anything about it yet that's cool too, I don't mind.

If I have helped, don't hesitate to touch the thanks button, you won't be charged for using it :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmeadows013:
Haha nah it's fine it's just an Evo Shift port right now... Everything works except camera and accelerometer(Landscape mode :( )

I want to get stuff working before I release it, but then I'll put stuff in like the 3.0 locking and maybe the 3D carousel.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheWhiteBandito:
Just wanted to add that Recognized Devs are not JUST rom developers, but app makers and script writers (like myself) :)
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Sweet! This sounds awesome! Is it like GB and stock sense, kind of like Stang's Hybrid or is it going to be themed? By stock sense I meant like without remappable right button and other stuff like that, because 3.0 lock ring is not stock. Lol

If I have helped, don't hesitate to touch the thanks button, you won't be charged for using it :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJGO23:
Oh ok cool didn't know that. Thanks!

If I have helped, don't hesitate to touch the thanks button, you won't be charged for using it :D
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmeadows013:
It probably will start out as stock, but I will theme it as I go along. It's a bit like Pure Speed at the moment, but I will implement things like the lockring and carousel as well as maybe some AOSP features. It probably will also have a remappable right button.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
What does the op mean? Some people are senior member and some are seinor member [op].

[LG Optimus Black] raj_malhotra:
Hi All,

I am new to the forum/ Android. I have bought a LG OB phone a few days back. I need some help with the following, hope someone will be able to help. I am sure these questions will help a lot of new Android users like me.

i) Where do i get the PC Suite for LG OB

ii) What does the root/ brick mean and how does it help the phone/ user

iii) If I switch OFF my LG OB at night is there no way I can have the phone automatically come ON with morning alarm.

iv) When is the Gingerbird update expected for this phone.

Look forward to some help. Thanks in advance.

Best regards
[LG Optimus Black] knoxious:
Hi Raj,

Honestly i was once like you, i guess everyone is.

I assure you that all your answers can be found in this forum without users having to repost.

But since i'm feeling bored today, i'd help you out this time.

1) LG PC Suite Download

2) Root = Able to access almost anything on the phone.

Bricked = Unable to start phone

Rooting is required for some applications to run. However warranty is void.

3) Why would you off your phone? If you just need an alarm, buy an alarm clock :P

4) No actual date as to the exact date. However there are words saying that it will be released end of August? Not sure.

Hope this answers your questions.
[LG Optimus Black] andrewbadge:
LG reps from the Philippines said early or end of October
[LG Optimus Black] raj_malhotra:
Thanks for the detailed information. Great help.

I am in the habbit of switching OFF my mobile at night so that the called get the the message switched off rather than on silent where they think I am ignoring them :-) Due to this I always used my mobile phone as the alarm clock and my Nokia N73M used to work very beatifully for this purpose.

Thanks again.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
im not sure when this started but it seems like every rom, every kernal i use now my phone will close apps to a black screen and freeze up for different lengths of time. was doing it in stock, and now a custom rom. tried different kernals... seems to be worse when the phone first boots up. its almost like a force close but slower and i don't get the force close message. help

Edit: ok i brought up the ram manager and my ram would start around 250 and climb up before my eyes until the screen blacks out.... how do i figure out what is eating up the ram.. and why does it stop?
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
I assume you already tried Odin to clear out any crap left right?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
yeah odined to stock ec05 and it was just as bad. rebooting the phone actually made it worse... seemed like it took forever for everythign to stabilize. phone also seems to get hot but i could be wrong about that. not the battery but above the battery near the camera
[Epic 4G General] poit:
Quite often this is caused by restoring old data over a new rom using a program like titanium backup. Sometimes you can get away with it between similar roms but restoring Froyo data on to a gingerbread rom will almost always cause lots of FCs.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i never restore data from nandroid backups and i reinstall all my apps from the market...

maybe my phone is tired

modem seems to be resetting alot too
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Isn't the spot right above the battery where the chip is located? Have you been overclocking your phone like I have at 1400 everyday? I was wondering if I have been flashing too much. I saw some of these issues myself. Odin started freezing as well but it seems to have smoothed out. I thought I may have wiped out my phone
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
no.... set at concervitive 200 - 1000. but i was using drockstars kernal before this without using a governer and it was still doing it. now i'm using TZ 1.1.1

it is that spot.. but its not hot there all the time either. very annoying issue
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Ummm, I am kind of at a loss here. You don't have any physical damage to your phone? No serious drops? You didn't go swimming with it in your pocket? But seriously, I run at 1400/100 on demand all of the time and that spot gets hot on Gingerbread ROMs but not on Froyo unless I run a lot of video at 1400 max.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
yeah i don't know what to think either. i guess when official gb finally drops i'll try one last clean install and if it keeps doing it i'm going to have to go through insurance
[Epic 4G General] megabiteg:
When did you purchase your phone? did this start to happen after you started loading custom ROMs or since the start?

What is your current setup right now? Do you use RFS or EXT4?

What hacks have you loaded to your phone, and after what even that you performed on the phone did you start experiencing this issues?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i've had the phone for a year. i've been doign roms for at least 6 months.. this only started in the last month on both rfs and ext4. i don't know what i did that could have done this.. honestly i started noticing it when i odined back to EC05 a few weeks ago. then i did an rfs rom, then drockstars kernal, now srf 1.2 and tz kernal. just seems to be getting worse and worse. to be honest it may have started after i flashed back from eh22
[Epic 4G General] Overstew:
Are you on TW4 Launcher? That can cause phone to freeze.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i am actually.... although this started before the tw4 launcher. i guess i'll remove it for a while and see what happens. dammit i liked the tw4 launcher too
[Epic 4G General] omair2005:
Don't use any CPU programs like setcpu, etc.. if not try wiping your sd card. Could just be your phone too.
[Epic 4G General] taboo8614:
I had this issue for a while and it caused me to leave to the iPhone, but now after months of waiting I am trying to bring my epic back

I will post my results I am going to try flashing back to stock and see it if can stay on for a day with out crashing....I'll be back with results in a day or 2
[Epic 4G General] 5FOOTER:
Mine does the same thing and it shuts off sometimes at 35% battery left. Just in the past month. Im stock not rooted. One more thing somedays i get 13 hrs of life and others like 6, same usage everyday and same area so service isnt the issue.
[Epic 4G General] JohnnyEpic:
I had this same issue. I was to a point of chamging phones.

I decided to watch 5 different tutorials/youtibe videos on how to odin back to stock.

In that process, 3 of the videos had different options checked. Yes, I decided to try each way, restoring apps/data from Titanium, each time.

After the first 2 attempts, and still seeing the freezes, I started to get some kind of com.google.apps process force close errors.

I was really ready to beat my phone up at this point.

So, after deciding, I've had enough, I said I would do it ONE more time. (There was still one more checkbox that another video was showing...)
[Epic 4G General] JohnnyEpic:
Sry, my fat fingers pressed submit.

Anyhow, Ive 0 programming experience so, all of this might kust be a lucky fluke. When I odin'd, I checked all three options. Re-Partition, Autoreboot, And F. Reset Time.

Only 1 video of the 4 I watched said to do this.

I then restored my apps and data back w/ Titanium.

I did make sure that any data from OEM apps, was not broight back, as a precaitonary on my part. It was really driving me nuts. Hope this helps....
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
crap well it wasn't TW4... uninstalled it last night. today rebooted and same thing.... its so strange it only happens the most after i reboot the phone. black screen with the status bar up top. if i touch the screen the button lights will come on ... if i swipe down the status bar it will eventually come down.. but with a ton of lag

i guess i'll nandroid backup and start from scratch with odin again. bone stock no root see what happens.

EDIT: just noticed that the modem seems to reset every time it does this. didn't see that before cause it doesn't always make the no signal sound. but the bars on the status screen go dark and the little x pops up above them before the home screen redraws. so basically whatever i'm doing goes to black screen.. times out for 10 min with just the bar on top, modem resets and goes back to the home screen
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
ok i brought up the ram manager and my ram would start around 250 and climb up before my eyes until the screen blacks out.... how do i figure out what is eating up the ram.. and why does it stop?

man this is nuts... i've got android system info running and i'm watching the processes tab... all the programs start usign memory, then android starts killing them off until they are almost all gone then i go to black screen... i dont' know what the hell is going on

edit: tasks is showing android.process.acore twice, package com.fede.launcher. both are using 34.89 MB and have cpu at 100... however total CPU usage is only showing 7%
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
Cpu gone bad?

Sent from my SPH-D700
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
why would it level off though? pretty much it does this 3 or 4 times, each time reseting the radio after i reboot... then it levels out and runs right for a while. there's no way of making a log?
[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
Is the com.fede.launcher Launcher Pro? It sounds like the launcher is constantly rewriting. Did you delete and re-install that app that keeps running?
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
Oh it levels off?

Hm idk then sounded like it from the bad cpu usage readings

I was having problems similar to what you described, mainly with twitter, until one day I was taking some pictures and the microsd crapped out.

Used a different microsd for the rest of the trip with no problems, formatted the one I thought went bad with gparted when I got home and have been using that one with no problems since then.

it's worth a try atleast?
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
well i could just take my SD card out and reboot and see what happens... pretty painless

interesting... that seems to have worked

edit... wow its absolutely the SD card... as soon as i inserted it the ram jumped up and the phoen froze. good call bro
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
Hm good thing you found Out, but is it the sdcard port or that specific card?
