Audio Problems. Posted in wrong category..

------------ First post

audio new kernel, still no go.

I am using base files from November. I thought I would check out the status on the audio problem. Just so its mentioned, after any update to one of the basefiles I delete data.img. I really should reboot after its creation, and then test audio on 2nd run vs 1st cause thats much more polite, but so far haven't done so. Since, I went to source forge first, versus coming here and reading the good bit of tidbits, I didn't do the most obvious thing which was to only change out the kernel. I updated the rootfs first to test the sound/mic. It ofcourse failed, I then updated the kernel it failed the audio test as well.

The interesting bit of difference between the two test was that the first test failed un subsequent attempts to get audio, it worked the first time. The second test it failed the first few times, and then worked for one attempt, then failed after that. Giving it a 2nd run with the new rootfs.img and kernel, now.

I connect to wifi. Fine.

10:30pm - I click mic search, Says starting up..

10:31pm - I click cancel.click mic , I repeat cancel, mic a bunch of times it never works..

10:33pm - EPIC FAIL I can't call my voicemail, no audio heard, no rings, nothing.

10:35pm - Click mic, see audio problem, try to brute force it a few times.. nothing..

now I update system.sqsh with that 90mb version I see (echero build?), I will delete data.img, and I will give it two boots, and will make a phone call at first opportunity on both startups, also I uploaded the custom.conf file to the conf folder. I will not touch the mic option till the second boot. I have no idea what echero is .

10:50- ahh its hero, that makes sense. I get some bootup sounds..

10:53- still showing an htc logo..

10:55 booted!

red light? battery? touchscreen warning about it not respondng, touchscreen sort of responding having issues unlocking the screen using the dial

phone doing crazy things, just going to let it sit for a few minutes maybe it will calm down..

11:00, ahh don't make a round motion, just move your finger from one side to the other, no arc, it unlocks.

I accidently turn off sound, in trying to turn it back on all of sudden I get an htc logo, like its booting up.. (it does make a bootup sound).. Lets

11:04- apparrently booting up?

11:04 - I fight to unlock it, touchscreen unresponisive dialog behind the locked screen. I get it unlocked. I then get a loading dialog

11:08 I try to make a phon call.. it really just freezes..

11:09 speeds up try to make a call again, looks like its not going to work, but I can see the (voicestream)/tmobile association when I go to to dial the mic happens to be crossed out. I play for a few moments it finally starts to play like a responsive phone.

11:13 shutdown

11:19 booting

11:21 booted

sorry! com.android.phone not responding . click wait

[leave it be]

sorry! sense not responding - click wait

[leave it be]

It successfully calls.

11:27.. click on voice search .. says connection problem. i try to brute force it , doesn't happen.. its really responsive to give up too.

11:28 phone is alot more responsive now..

Mic works on phone call..

voice search still not happenin..

(hehehe maybe i should post the above into hero)

--End of first post

Starting from scratch not going past the iffy kernel..

--Second Post

his time I did a full reinstall. Used base files from November. Then updated the setup w/ these files:

rootfs.img fixed donut gps, fixed sysinit.rc support 10.5 MB 2009-12-14 0

zImage 11-12-09 zImage by dzo 1.5 MB 2009-12-14 0

system-2009-08-08.img 43.4 MB 2009-12

I did two reboots. Actually three. The first boot for somereason the phone froze. Can't recall seeing that before. I made a call on my third boot, and the mic was inaudible trying to record my voice mail greeting. After I called out, I tried a voicesearch, worked on the first attempt. On my second it just said starting up and didn't do anything afterwards.. after i did this I tried to call my voicemail and it didn't play anything through the earpiece. (you could still hear the dial sounds when pushing the buttons).

replaced the zImage with zImage-23-10-09

deleted data.img && calibration

booted up

went through dialogs

turned on wifi - connected to ap

called voice mail

mic worked well, no anomalies.

voice search worked first time

voice search did not work second time..

called voicemail again..

nothing heard while timer ticked by indicating I was on the phone after 35 seconds it ended the call.

Second attempt, after 36 second it ended call.

Sound still played (i.e. dialpad noises etc,etc,etc)

--

Rebooted, same situation, after the mic is used the first time in voice search the phone is rendered useless. I tried to call my voicemaill it was a silent and hung up at 37 seconds.
