Ok. I'll try that, but in a "controlled" environment (e.g. at home). Because when the noise occurs here (at work), my first move is to remove the battery ASAP.

I never saved any... no need to -- you've already got a collection. if all else fails, simply search your filesystem for files ending with .state, but the list archive should provide several postings with that path even for qtopia look for "echo" or "buzz" in august/september. as long your states are the original ones the default should be stereoout.state, enabling the big lower speaker. for calls gsmhandset.state should be loaded; gsmheadset.state or headset.state (not sure about the differences) should disable even the little speaker on top. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

QTE provides alsactl, from what I can see. But what state file should I restore? I never saved any... Sorry if all this sounds (reads?) lame, but I never took time to fight with sound issues yet.

How could we do that? Thanks. (btw, that thing happened to me more often than ever in the last 24 hours. No specific change on my hardware or software, so it might as well be a coincidence) -- Olivier M. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

RE: [QTEXTENDED] Very loud noise on (some) incoming calls
I have this issue every so often as well. The weird thing is when the loud noise happens, the speaker phone is active as well (I didn't activate it, it answers with the speaker).

Re: [QTEXTENDED] Very loud noise on (some) incoming calls
I'm also using QTE 4.4.2, and I get this behaviour consistently after I configure a gprs internet connection. On Saturday I noticed it for the first time without trying to configure a gprs connection - but I'm not sure what triggered it. I normally try to reboot every couple of days, but hadn't in a while... It was fine after a reboot... I guess you just need to pretend the FR is a windows box and reboot it every couple of days... :-) Warren On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 8:24 AM, Olivier Migeot <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've been using QTE 4.4.2 on my Freerunner for quite some time, now > (almost since it's been released).

[QTEXTENDED] Very loud noise on (some) incoming calls
I've been using QTE 4.4.2 on my Freerunner for quite some time, now (almost since it's been released). It works fine, especially because I don't use it much as a phone (but still a little). For instance, I have very little to no buzzing problems. For a couple of weeks, I noticed some very strange things : sometimes (it looks like it's more likely to happen when the phone haven't been rebooted for some several days, but then it's only a guess) I got a very high pitched and loud noise when answering incoming calls. Usually, I reboot the phone after that (it's so loud and disturbing I usually remove the battery quickly, for my neighbourhood wouldn't like it much) and it works fine again. Any insight on what might cause that, and/or what I can do to further test it? Thanks. -- Olivier M. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
