problem: i hear my voice echo when talking

the caller on the other end said that it is clear on their side however on my side (tilt) i hear my own voice echo on every call. its not very bad, but not acceptable either
has anyone else had this problem and a fix?

I have the same problem. Sounds perfect with a bluetooth headset,,, but horrible with just the handset. Hopefully it can be fixed with software, because as it is now my 8125 had much better call quality.

i am having the same problem, i am on the tilt rom. what rom are you using? is it just tilts or all kaiser?
if kaiser is fine i will just put a the kaiser rom on it.

It seems as if the phone was doing that the first 3 days, and now its completely stopped doing it. It is the tilt rom, with a lot of add on programs. Im not sure if it worked it out itself, or if it is because of the programs on it though.

This used to happen quite often on my 8125 and was so loud I could not hear the other person. It now happens very rarely on my 8525 and not nearly as pronounced. My mom has also experienced it on her flip phone.
I always thought it was a network problem with AT&T.

I also get this on the handset.
Tilt, no EXT ROM cabs installed, just a few apps.

its happening on my tilt tom

I have this on my Dutch Tytn II but only when i call one particular number. Figured it was my friend's phone, but you guys make me wonder ...

Ditto. I am hearing alot of feedback. What makes it worse is that my wife also has the Kaiser, and has the same echo problems.

I just returned my original Tilt to the store.
New model has the exact same issue.

I do hear my own sound, sometimes not all the time. Is it the AT&T service or the phone

I had this when I first got my Tilt. After flashing the Kaiser ROM, it was gone.

Have a tilt, and also have this problem....

i have a tiny echo. annoying all the same.

Usually it's a network problem. I had it on and off with a variety of Verizon phones, usually when signal strength was weak.
Haven't had it yet with AT&T, but I'm sure it's a matter of time.

I just had a thought. This may be the side effect of a "feature".
On the Hermes you could not record both sides of a conversation when using the recorder in notes. If I recall (correct me if I am wrong) you could only hear your side.
However, on the Kaiser (I am rocking a Tilt) I just tested it and the recorder, sure enough, picks up both sides.
Just a thought.
Later, Lew

solutions?
I have the same issue. I just got my tilt 3 days ago, heard the echo of my own voice on calls so I took the phone back for another and the echo is still there. Has anyone found a fix/reason for this yet? This thread died down about 2 months ago... are people still having this problem?

My guess is the network problem, I have the TytnII on T-Mobile network USA. And I have the same problem once a while.... but usually is at a weak signal place.....

I have the same problem with my razr phone. Wonder if we all have AT&T for service?

Trouble making calls...

Hey all,
I've had a problem a couple of times where the person on the other end of the phone couldn't hear me, but I could hear them. This has happened twice, and on two different radios so not sure if that's the problem. I've using Dutty's latest (Apr 16 version) ROM.
The first time it happened was when I was receiving a call. This was using the Niki radio.
I'm now on radio 1.64.08.21 and the problem happened when I was making a call. There was a loud sound (that almost sounded like a dial-up modem) when the person picked up the phone and then they couldn't hear me.
Anyone else have this problem, or know what is causing it and how to fix it? Thanks.

I had that happen to me when the other person couldnt hear me, or weird background noise would occur. I experimented with different radios until I found one that worked. To me, it sounds like you may need to experiment with different radios until you find one that works. I also know it may be a regional issue for you as well. Some in your area may be able to use a particular radio and others in your area may need to use another. So try another Niki or Polaris radio. That may resolve the bad reception you're having. Hopes this helps.

Phone call sound and missed calls

I bought my quad-band Diamond last week and so far just love it! With the only exception it a perfect phone. I use it with T-Mobile US.
The issue(s) I'm having (there are two actually) is that occasionally when I answer a call or call someone they cannot hear me but I hear them. This is only fixed by soft resetting the phone.
The other issue is that it is missing calls and having SMS sending issues. In the 3 days I'm using the Diamond I've got 4 voice messages without phone ringing. And once I called myself from land line and got voice mail and my phone didn't even ring.
From my Hermes and Kaiser experience I know these are most likely radio issues. But that would require to HardSPL the phone and doesn't guarantee to resolve the problem. I still have a week to return the phone and I don't want to keep it if I have to re-flash it every few days trying to find a good radio. And even if I were to go and try another radio - there are only 2 of them out there - the .05 which I have and the .06 which is my understanding is not recommended.
Anyone else is experiencing this?
Any advice?
Thank you!
ROM version: 1.93.456.2 WWE
ROM date: 07/10/08
Radio version: 1.00.25.05

Bump!

Thank you!

I got the same setup as you but unbranded rom as i have a htc unit rather than a network provided one - no issues here
mine has been hard-spld

I know the reason
Look at my post

Thank you.
This might explain why they can not hear me on the other side. I will make sure and check that next time this happens.
Although this doesn't explain the missed calls when the phone never rings...

Call Quality Issues - Lack of audibility for other person

Hi
I was wondering if anyone has encountered the following problem...
When I make a call or receive a call the person on the other end of the conversation says that I sound really quiet and that they can barely hear me. I have tested this myself and found the audibility very poor.
I've a Eurpoean model, operating on the o2 network in Ireland
Please don't flame me and tell me I should have searched as I have read the other thread on "call voice quality issues" and this is a seperate issue as in that thread they claim that they sound robotic to the other person whereas I sound fine but just barely audible
Any help would be greatly appreciated as it is a major issue with the phone.
Also please ignore my signature as I haven't had a chance to update it and I've a very poor internet connection at the moment so I can't do it right now
Thanks

Hi,
I'm also using the Diamond on O2 in Ireland and I've not experienced that issue. People seem to be able to hear me fine.
Could be a firmware issue. My stock ROM was some old ME firmware but I've since flashed to 1.93.401.2 WWE. Works very well in all respects, and you never know it could help with your volume problem.

Hi thanks very much for the reply
Hoped someone else from Ireland would see my post
What radio are you using and what SPL?
Where did you find the ROM & radio? I searched for the ROM reference you gave in your last post but it showed up nothing. I'm probably not searching correctly though. I want to make sure I flash an identical version to yourself to ensure I have a successful resolution to this problem cos its driving me mad at the moment
Thanks

Hey, sorry for taking so long to reply.
I upgraded to [ROM][WWE]HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.2 5.12_1.00.25.05_Ship (post is here) after first flashing my Diamond with Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex from here.
Having done that, my radio is at 1.00.25.05 and the ROM version is 1.93.401.2 WWE. After putting on the HardSPL, I flashed the actual ROM but I didn't take any extra steps to upgrade the radio. Seems like it was included in the ROM update I downloaded. I see tutorials around the place for flashing a different radio, but that didn't seem necessary in my case.
I should also mention that my Diamond is DIAM100 (reset whilst holding the Volume Down key to check if yours is a DIAM100 too) as I think there are issues using certain SPLs with different DIAM versions.
Having done this upgrade, Opera is much faster and more stable, TouchFLO is very fast and smooth and everything is generally hunky dorey. The Diamond goes together pretty well with O2 Billpay and the 250mb data add on. I don't understand this iPhone hysteria where people are thrilled to have an 18 month contract for at least 45 quid a month. Go Diamond go.

thanks a million for your reply
After spending most of the day reading I managed to get the problem solved by installing hard SPL and updating the radio... I'm not sure how it fixed it but it did so I'm happy
I'm on o2 prepay... unlimited texts to any network is very appealing... would love a data package but don't want to be tied to a contract
thanks again

Good stuff.
Would still recommend upgrading the main ROM aswell though, its much more stable and smooth than the stock ROM.
Adios
Dave

I had the same complaint. Everytime I talked to someone, they complained about the quality of my phone call.
I called HTC and they said when the new ROM came out, it would help. It had something to do with the lack of 3G or another band.... I can't remember which band but the point is, for us, in the US, the choice of bands was the problem.
Now that I've updated my ROM, I've had no issues.

I have this issue. I hear the calls loud and clear but the person on the other end claims they can hardly hear me.
I'm using ROM 1.93.456.2 WWE from 7/10/08
Radio 1.00.25.05
Any recommendations on what to do?
Thanks

hi
in my case it was my microphone that was broken on the phone
i returned the phone to HTC to repair it and since I got it back its working perfectly
The way to check if the microphone is not working is to record yourself talking using the voice recorder. That will tell you if it's the microphone or not

Thanks. I checked and, although it isn't going to win any sound quality awards, I don't believe it's broken.
I'll maybe compare it to my Touch and see if there is an obvious difference before proceeding.
Hopefully it can be corrected in a software change...

I think I have the same problem. I posted it on the "Support Centre" thread.
My Diamond was working fine, I did some ROM updates with no problem. One day my wife started complaining that she could barely hear me. That was the case with everybody else. I could hear them perfectly but my voice was too low for them. Checked the volume and restared the Phone with no results. After a lot of random testing the phone came back to normal. This problem happened again a few days later and I noticed that people could her me fine when i was using the stero phones, but could barely hear me through the embedded mic on the Phone. This time only a hard reset was able to bring the phone back to normal.
Now things are worse! After a hard reset or a new ROM update the phone works fine for a few hours than the problem starts and nothing can bring it back to normal (only a hard reset).
I dont think it is a hardware problem because the phone works after the hard reset, but I tested some different ROMs an the problem persisted.
At the moment I am downloading other ROMs and RADIOs to see if it does any good. If someone has any idea I would love to hear it!
Thanks in advance.

@ Maddog
That sounds exactly the same as the way my problem progressed
I tried numerous radio's & rom's to try solve the problem and immediately after installing a new rom or radio the microphone worked (therefore i assumed it was a rom/radio issue) but like you it stopped working soon afterwards
Eventually no matter what rom I installed no one could hear me on the other end of the call and after ringing HTC they told me it must be the microphone. I sent it back and they fixed if for free. Must say I was impressed with their service

Thanks Lassykk,
Not a good news for me as my cell is from europe and I live in Brazil... well, I think I am going to buy a Jawbone2 Bluetooth headset and will try to live with the problem untill I travel back to europe on the end of the year.
Thanks.

I live in ireland and my nearest repair centre is in the UK. They were happy for me to send to the UK and they fixed it and sent it back to me with minimal fuss.
I assume you could send it to your nearest repair centre. Might be worth looking into it. You need proof of purchase though if you bought it off ebay or somewhere you didn't get a receipt
Hope this helps

Att Tilt no sound from speakers already flashed every radio. Please help!!

Hello guys,
I am new to posting so I hope I am not breaking any rules here. I have been using my Tilt for almost 2 years now. I recently flashed to the TPCE Ultimate rom and it owrked great for a few weeks. Now all of a sudden the sound will not work from my phone's speaker and apparently callers cannot hear me either. Everything works via bluetooth, so I am assuming it is only the speaker and mic. I have read the threads regarding the radio issues and have flashed every radio on the list. I have also flashed back to an ATT rom and reverted the radio to the original one. Still same issues. I thought the speakers could have just gone bad, but after flashing the Stock rom I get sound during the cheesy ATT 3g splash screen. Once it starts up however no sound again. Anyone got any ideas what could be wrong. Thanks to in advance to anyone who takes the time to respond.

Cheesy, exactly.
Well, I am in the same boat.
Will someone help us, please?
