Problems with Audio (And other questions...)

[meversoll]

I'm having problems with the audio on my HTC Wizard / Cingular 8125. Lately if I plug the wired headset into the port, the audio will still be routed through the speakers built into the device AND the headset. Is this a known issue, or am I the only person that this is happening to?

I love this device to death - my only other complaint is battery life. It seems to die very quickly while listening to music (which is understandable) but ... to go from a full battery to completely flat in a 1 hour commute on a train? That's a little .... excessive.

I love the Faria ROM - too bad that it was taken down. Anyone know if/when HTC will be releasing an Official Rom for WM6?

1) are you using a custom rom? i remember reading other posts about strange speaker behaviour in one or two of them, also have you installed any apps/progs recently?
2) again, custom rom? and obvious things like screen off and key lock? (try deltalock) other running progs off? (use CloseAll before running media player) to save power
3)only htc know. my guess is only for new devices, it probably costs too much for them to create and test, and why release a cheap/free rom update for old phones when they can just release a new device and say 'new hardware & new os, buy this'
