no audio

Obviously, 2.1 and 2.1b leak still has the so convenient random audio disappearance. Has anyone been able to pinpoint the problem with this? It seems to me to be random. And the only fix is to restart the phone.
 
this is the main reason i was avoiding doing this latest update. so i guess i will definitely wait for the official 2.1 as that drove me insane. first have to have my latest Eris replaced though because of a bad earpiece. this will be my fourth one.
 
and no, i have no clue what caused this. and it's strange that many don't have the problem but quite a few do. but i've noticed this phone is like that.
 
Some have reported that the problem vanished virtually overnight, inexplicably.

I was wondering if it had something to do with the device trying to sync everything after the upgrade and things just shutting down as it used up resources.

Just a guess.
 
I have updated with the first 2.1 leak and the second 2.1 leak and to this day I have had no audio problems. Wish I had an answer for you.
 
I had the problems with v1, but with v2 everything seems good so far as far as the sound cutting out after a while.

Not sure what did it, but this time around I did no install Sportstap because NBA League Pass and MLB At Bat have me covered for the sports I care about right now. I'm not saying that was the cause, but it's the one app I don't have this time around.
 
I just think its so lame that its coded that poorly. And i know its only a leak copy, but going from 1.5 to a new version, how do you completely screw up the call system to where the audio cuts out. After 3 calls today it did it again, had to reboot.
 
No audio problems here at all, on either of the 2.1 versions. I really think it's a bad app that's to blame, rather than the OS ... since we all have the same hardware, if the OS were the culprit the problem should be happening to more (or all) of us.
 
I upgraded to 2.1 this morning and I have had the audio drop out 3 times already today. Right in the middle of a phone call once. It seems whenever the dialer is activated it randomly kills the audio for the whole phone. A reboot fixes it each time, but this is a bad bug!

Well, a word of hope for you; it's been posted more than once that audio problems, along with a few other bugs, vanish with an over night charge after a day or so of use.
 
I'm still running the original leak and have never experienced this? Is there a build date on the phone or something we could compare? Maybe a chip change in manufacturing at some point? Just throwing stuff out there since my phone is pretty new.

Yeah, I'm thinking along the same lines as well, but that would mean the early adopters would be experiencing it, since I got mine in November (probably the first batch still since my school has a VZW kiosk in the student center, and no one seemed to have one then) but OTD and Caddyman and others that got theirs the first day don't seem to have the problem.
 
I had this problem on leak 2.1 and I continue to have it on 2.1b. Sometimes it will happen after making/receiving just 1 phone call. Other times I will be able to make 1/2 dozen calls with no trouble. I have also notice that when my audio is kaput, the images that show up with my contacts are distorted.
