[Liquid S100 General] andrey_zi:
I tried to call for the 1st time today.

When I call to someone, or vice versa, other party can hear me, while I hear nothing at all via ordinary phone speaker (on the front side). Volume changes does nothing.

If I tap "Speaker" - I can hear other party via another speaker (on the rear side of the device).

If I plug the headset in - agian, it works normally as supposed.

Is my phone speaker broken or do I miss something? I played with every settings I could find, but nothing helps...

Did anyone have the same problem?

Acer Liquid, 1.6 orginal rom. I didn't have a chance to reinstall rom yet, so it should be just fine. I did install a few apps from Market.
[Liquid S100 General] calangoni:
I had exactly the same problem.

I was using ROM LCR 1.6.

I have just reflashed my phone and still the same problem, I think it is broken.

I've bought my Acer Liquid two months ago!
[Liquid S100 General] Jayziac:
sounds like a hardware problem with the phone speakers. Normal calls should be heard through the speakers above the screen. speakerphone/ringtones/media sounds go through back speakers.
[Liquid S100 General] ajaffarali:
Had the same issue- returned it for another one.

I had a same problem. My phone speaker does not work.
[Liquid S100 General] andrey_zi:
Hi guys,

Just to let you know. I contacted Acer and they immediately told me that I need to send the phone to them for repair. (maybe it's a know issue).

I did that. 3 weeks after got the phone back. It works fine now.

On the paper I got with the phone they said that the part changed is "reciever"

So for those who have the problem - send your phone back.
[Liquid S100 General] Charlton22:
I encountered this problem today....

I thought it was a hardware problem...

A Full Wipe cleared the issue..

You should try a full wipe before conclude that its a hardware issue...
[Liquid S100 General] michael2420:
I had this problem as well on my Acer Liquid E. Mine was a hardware issue, as when i would grip it tightly or press on the earpiece I would get intermittent sound but there was static. I did 4 wipes and nothing solved it.
[Liquid S100 General] Charlton22:
Sry for that! Just don't grip it tight :p

We all know its a very fragile device...

Acer should have engraved "HANDLE WITH CARE" on both side of the device.
[Liquid S100 General] g0n3xt:
I have fixed the hear speaker

Hi all! I had this problem with my Acer Liquid, I had no warranty so I tried to solve the problem and succeeded. It's not software or configuration, it's a broker hear speaker!

Symptom: You can hear the person on the other end with Loud Speaker, Bluetooth Headset and Hear Phones but you can't hear via the Hear Speaker.

Problem: Broken Hear Speaker.

His problem is reported all over the Internet but with no solution beside sending to Acer.

I risked and fixed it myself by dissembling my Liquid and find a compatible hear speaker.

Big Problem: No spares parts anywhere for this device.

Solution: Blind search for a spare hear speaker by looking at pictures and compare with broken one.

Big Solution: This speaker is also used on a series of iPaq (HP) PDA's and i found a website that sells them quite cheap.

I found two compatible models of speaker and i leave the links here.

I bought these two:

www*repairhppda*com/front-speaker-for-hp-ipaq-voice-messenger-p-1822.html

www*repairhppda*com/internal-speaker-for-ipaq-910-912-914-910c-912c-914c-p-1235.html

!! I can't post links so remove the * and put dots on the links.

I've only used one so can't say which i used because they are very similar, but one of them works for sure the other i can't guaranty but I'm almost sure it also works.

(it seems like it could fit but don't know and can't confirm... did not buy this one)

I disassembled my Acer Liquid, replaced the hear speaker, and Bang! It' Works!

Notes: Be careful when disassembling your liquid you could easily break something, take steps slowly and carefully.

If you need any hint, speak here, i'll try to answer as soon as possible.

Cheers!
[Liquid S100 General] thaikinh:
I am having another problem. The people from the other side hardly hear what I say, they say my phone is too noisy, especially at the beginning of the call. The quality is ok for me, I can hear everything very clearly.

I don't know if it is a hardware problem or just (hopefully) a problem with the baseband or something like that.
[Liquid S100 General] tango13:
I have the same problem.

I tried to flash a different baseband and apparently it started working ok but after a while the noise was back again.

The strange thing is that the noise seems to pop up only when I call from certain places and not from others.
[Liquid S100 General] thaikinh:
Yes, it's a very annoying problem. Since the other party cannot hear me clearly, now I have to go back to my HTC Touch HD until I found a solution for this.

I bought this Acer Liquid as a 2nd hand one without invoice, so there is no way to return to Acer for a repair service.
[Liquid S100 General] nferro:
Yesterday I received a call and I couln't ear anything, then I tried to callback (thinking it was a network problem) and I still couldn't ear anything. I used the loudspeaker and it was working, also plugged my headphones and I could ear the other party.

I then called Acer complaining, they told me the phone needed to be repaired (the quickness on the response made me think this is somehow usual), that I should put it in a box with the RMA code written on it and that they would send me DHL to pick it up. Today DHL picked the phone, so far everything as been dealt really fast and I can't anyhow complain on Acer support, lets just see how long it will take till I get my phone back.

We've always been able to download .swf flash game files, but with Flash 10.1 I was hoping we could put them on the sdcard and play offline.

Anyone know how to do this? (For cataloging / playing Flash games when there's no connection.)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
HAH! Idea: what about storing an html page that just launches a SWF? What's the least amount of code in a page that would do that?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] gIMpSTa:
Hahaha funny you say this, I tried it earlier after reading your message and no go.

For starters, no way to access local file from native browser (others may support it but native doesn't).

Closest I could come was by selecting the html file with astro, then choosing to open it with "HTML Viewer" (built into astro I think?) but it didn't show the embedded flash object.

I think best way to achieve this would be an app that can read a directory on sdcard and generate the html to load into a webview. I was thinking about throwing something together real quick but haven't had time to look and see if something like it already exists.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Paul22000:
Damn, that's too bad.

Yeah, I find it very odd that you can't browse local html files.

A long time ago (G1 days) I tried all sorts of //file:/// weird stuff (like Firefox does) and couldn't get anything to work. I can't believe there's no way to browse locally.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Jrbourque:
Try file explorer in market for local browser.... let me know if it works lol

[Desire General] quanganhle90:
I use the HTC_IME, which is the modded version of htc keyboard, it is so much better :D
[Desire General] Dunbad:
Yep times 2. But im using swype. This is my best keyboard and better than slide it.
[Desire General] samac92:
I use smart keyboard - far better than stock or even the HTC IME mod
[Desire General] Nuntius:
Can you tell me in what way a keyboard is better than another?
[Desire General] samac92:
Well the stock one annoyed me because the word suggestions appear over the top of what your writing, so you can't read what you've just typed.

smart keyboard has a section above the keyboard where the suggestions appear, so they don't get in the way.

also i found i hit the full stop button too often on the stock one as the space bar was too small.

smart keyboard has a free version so try that. but it doesn't have the word correction - that's only in the pro verison
[Desire General] ew4936:
switched to swype a few days ago, don't know if i'll be able to use traditional keyboards again lol

the word prediction is just amazing and much faster than typing on the standard htc sense keyboard

Swype without a doubt.

100% recommended.

Keyboard as portrait mode when in landscape use?

Hi guys! With stock keyboard on Desire, it is pretty good to use it in portrait mode, however, when you try in landscape mode -to take benefits of the larger buttons as well- you must forgo the rest on the page/app or whatever on the screen, because the screen is then full with keyboard and text input box only.

Is there any keyboard which is not covering the whole screen (this may be possible with an input field consisting of one, scrollable line) ??
[Desire General] samac92:
i find swype incredibly slow, there is no way that one finger sliding to each key is faster than tapping with two thumbs in opinion.
[Desire General] th3:
Such choices are relative by definition.

IME, HTC_IME mod keyboard is the best all round followed by Swype in some regards. However, Swype disabling multi-touch in the browser kills its appeal on my end unless I'm using an app where I don't require the zoom feature.

And yep, Swype-ing words is faster, much faster, as odd as that might sound... simply because you don't have to hit the actual keys to bring the whole word up in prediction, and even when you hit a few wrong keys in a word, very surprisingly, Swype 99/100 auto-corrects the word or at least offers the correct word to choose -- far more forgiving than the other traditional keyboards. The detection, prediction and auto-correction are what make the product work. I basically scribble everything in if using it, and do it very fast with little error, less than a traditional on-screen keyboard if trying that much speed anyway (sure, there is an initial learning curve like with anything new. It 'aint a 2 day affair).

[Desire General] hot-fuzz:
I can't see why people like Swype over slide it.

I have installed Swype 3 times and each time go back to slide it. Swype although in beta just isn't as good.

For example when you want to do a double letter you need to do a stupid little circle over the letter. WHY? Also its not as accurate. Also I have consistently had a 40% fail rate with words.

Slide it is accurate, I hardly get any mistakes, it knows when you want or need a double letter. I can almost write as quick as if I were typing on a full size keyboard.

The only advantage Swype has is it looks good. I'm amazed people rate it over the far superior slide it.

Below is from the SPB Backup user manual. I even found a specific reference of upgrade from 6.1 to 6.5 (which is what I want to do). Has anyone tried backing up 6.1, flashing the 6.5 ROM, and then restoring from the 6.1 backup? It sounds like this is what the manual suggest you can do. Is that possible?

Any Ideas?

... if I change the Bootanimation, there is no more sound.

I found out that a custom bootupsound only plays with the original bootanimation.zip.

This is what I posted in the MoDaCo-Forums (running on MoDaCo-Rom. )

What we need is all here:

/system/customize/resource/

-> bootanimation.zip

-> android_audio.zip

Now I found out, only the HTC Bootupanimation works. I dunno how to build these ZIPs, I worked with HxD and found nothing in the ZIP-Header.

I think it is something with the desc.txt and the filenames of the PNGs.

This mean that:

desc.txt:

480 800 15

p 1 1 android

Filename:

wvga_htc_bootup_android_104f_15fps_005spf 01.png

wvga -> Screenresolution

htc -> yeah, you know.

bootup -> maybe its' there because it's in the bootupanimation? ;D

android -> folder, bootupanimation.zip has only the folder android -> look in the desc.txt above

104f -> Maybe Frames? I have only 78 Frames in the HTC-Bootup

15fps -> desc.txt -> the Frames per Seconds

005spf -> Dunno. SoundPerFile?

01 -> Frame. ...

Now I need help. I know: Other Bootanimations doesn't play sounds.

No Animations play sounds.

HTC Animation play a sound too.

Anyone build Bootanimations? Any Help? Maybe we can f*ck this file, and build awesome animations with SUPER GREAT SOUNDS.

€: After pushing the original cyanogenmod-Bootanimation-PNGs with new Name (them from the HTC-Bootanimation) it does nothing. Only a black screen.

With the desc.txt from HTC-Bootanimation pushing in the CY-Bootanimation plays, but comes with no sound.

It's a mysterious for me why the hell the HTC-Bootanimation plays this fkkn' Sound, and other Bootanimations not. God dammnit.

I am trying to root my phone following the "Rooting ALL Non-Sprint CDMA Heros Stuck On 1.5 From Sprint's 2.1 RUU" tutorial

hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6142906

I created a gold card, copied the hercimg.zip to the root dir of my sd card, and started hboot with volume down and power.

The phone will unzip the file but once it is done checking it goes back to the menu screen with the following options

[vol up] fastboot

[back] simlock

[home recovery

Now I was able to run the hercimg.zip file once and installed it by hitting [action]. The phone eventually returned to the menu screen mentioned above. It never asked me to reboot the phone by pressing [action].

Thinking that step of the tutorial was done I tried to install a custom recovery image but it wont let me do it. It would fail when I try to push/install from cmd I also can't run the adb remount command.

So now I am sort of stuck. I am thinking if I could get the hercimg to reinstall it would fix my problem. But I haven't been able to find anything.

A side note I am able to still use my phone. As far as I can tell it is still functioning fine. I just don't have any root access.

I also tried re-creating my gold card but that hasn't helped either.

As for the forum link I added xx instead of tt so you can find the tutorial a little easier, as I can't post links yet.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d-shade:

First things first thanks development gurus for all your amazing efforts. Now that being said and this is actually more of an observation on the "community " as a whole...

The flame wars and the bickering acomplish nothing. There's a saying "together we all accomplish more." So why not source share across the board? It is supposedly an open platform right? Give appropriate dues and together who know what's possible. I don't think anyone is trying to take anyone's lime light. There may have been some inadvertent slips where credit wasn't given. I don't think it was malicious though.

I just wanted to say this because all of this petty back and forth takes away from the development (which is the basis of the community ). And for those just looking for drama seek it elsewhere please. It serves no purpose here.
