The zImage and Modules are the kernel. That is what you DO need to update at minimum to fix the sound issue.

ALWAYS backup your data.img regardless of what build because not every build will work with the old settings.

backup your apps and things with Titanium Backup or similar app
Backup Data.img
Delete old build entirely except data.img
Put new build on
Double check startup.txt for keyboard map and other settings like turning ON Hardware 3d option
Boot.


If it fails to boot in 10 minutes or reboots to windows, delete your data.img and start from scratch. Reinstall your apps as the restoring them may break the settings your new data.img.

Restore at your own risk, not everything will restore.

I followed these steps to update to the newest BLAZN build. Booted perfectly, with all settings, desktop, etc. in tact.

I asked a friend to call to test my phone. I answered, and couldn't hear anything. He said he could hear me, though.

Also, I downloaded Titanium Backup, and I have no idea where the 'Backup' or any similar button is. Does this relate to the fact that Android doesn't recognize my SD card (except in Astro file manager)?

Great that your settings ported ok. Are you overclocking Windows Mobile at all? Are you booting normally or in a call still. I would also take a look at your startup.txt and make sure there isn't anything for the external speaker listed.

Titanium backup has a backup restore tab. You can backup individual apps and settings or hit the menu button (Windows button) and select batch to backup more than one item at a time.

Re: Phone call sound only works 50% of time / Updating Android

I have the same problem. My current workaround is to bring up the menu during a phonecall and turn on/off the speakerphone, then it works okay only for the call. I know it's such a trouble, I am thing going back to WM until I know what it is.

Re: Phone call sound only works 50% of time / Updating Android

I am having the exact same problem as well. I can only hear phone calls about 50% of the time. My data connection also stops working every now and then ... most of the time putting the phone in airplane mode for a few seconds fixes it.

I am running the 9/29 build of BLAZN.

I have the same problem with no sound on incoming calls. This "fix" works for me too. I am running the non BLAZN (stock? the name escapes me.) from 9/28 on NAND

I'm not overclocking WM or Android. The problem happens both when I boot normally and when I boot during a call to voicemail. Nothing about the external speaker in my startup.txt.

I'm on a Sprint TP2. So glad others have chimed in with the same problem; now I know I'm not crazy or doing this totally wrong!

Hey good to know so the devs can fix it.

I honestly don't call enough mine may end up be doing the same thing. Just so happens to be the 50% that it works.
