09/15 New Kernel fixes in-call volume and speakerphone

FYI, there's a new kernel out that enables speaker phone and in-call volume.

As always, just replace your zImage with the one in the archive, and then delete your old module and put in the new one.

This works, wow! It appears to use the same MIC as the one you use when not on speakerphone, but still works well. Very cool!

You guys aren't getting any of these problems?

Rhod100: Sound is fine, battery information is accurate, USB (debuggin) seems to work!
Rhod210: No incoming call mic sound
RAPH100: sound fix works but I can confirm it breaks incoming call mic -- other party cannot hear anything (fixed phone type)
blackstone: no incoming sound, mic no sound
BLAC: it has still that black-screen-of-death issue..
RHOD400 (Sprint): seems good!
TOPA100: does not work the microphone during a call unless you press the volume button

I'm on RHOD500 and the only problem that I have had once is while I was in a call with full signal strength: my radio showed an x and the phone symbol stayed on in the top bar and I temporarily got disconnected. I'm not sure if this was carrier related or somthing with the update. Just wanted to let others know, but it might not really be an issue with the update though.

Did you try it?

Not yet, that's why I asked. On the other site it's mostly negative feedback, here it's all positive.

Everything works fine here.

Haha, guess maybe they broke a bunch of stuff helping us Rhod users.

why do we need the module change to? to get sound from no sound all you needed to do was the zImage change, no module change needed.. why do we need it here?

Perhaps you're not aware... EVERY zImage update should also update your modules. They go together... which is why they're usually compressed together in the same file
