Phone call answer delay? - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenver i answer a phone call, I can hear the other person, but there is a delay of between 5 and 10 seconds before the other person can hear me, rather annoying as I end up saying hello 5 or 6 times at the beginning of every phone call. Now I have taken to remaining silent for upto 10 seconds after i answer just to prevent this.
I am running gtrabs W4X 6.5 +R3A with the 1.14.25.55 radio with the rilphone.dll that was posted with it. I think the problem happened before I had this software too though, and ideas or suggestions? a better radio perhaps? I'm on Vodafone UK.
Thanks.

me too, i would like a definitive fix for this please.

Nope, I have it too... Very annoying...

me too! there is a 2 sec delay from pressing the button to being heard from the other party on the line. I have installed the Touch HD phone dialer on top of the stock rom (R3) so i am not sure if that is causing the problem.

Well 2 seconds is a lot less than the time I get and I'm not using any sort of 3rd party dialer so i doubt taht's your problem.

i've had aproblem when u cant even answer a call it just keeps on ringing.......
usually if someone call when i'm playing mp3's with media player

eh im not alone then... 2 or 3 seconds before they can hear me..

yes i have the same problem too...it happened just recently after i got itje's touch-it 7 rom, but not immediately after i put that rom, so i dont know if that's the problem.

I'm using stock R2A Generic UK with stock dialer and I also have about 2-3 seconds before the other person can hear me.

basically i dont think it has something to do with the rom..cause i changed to stock rom and the same problem exists...so it must be some hardware problem...anyway i 'm taking it for service...

I think we all have that problem, and it has nothing to do with the ROM.

Its pretty bad in this modern era of high tech devices that just answering the phone has become so complicated lol

this phone is so complicated but cant do the simplest of things correctly.

Did anyone think about the Provider at any point? Because it might be Network related too.
I have no delay and are on T-Mobile USA.

I have it on TMO USA.

got the same problem on Vodafone NL..

well i have the same problem on cosmote greece....and lately it has become a lot worse...now the other person sometimes cannot hear me at all even after a minute...and if he finally manages to hear me, then they tell me that my voice is too low in volume...even though im practically yelling at them...could this have something to do with the microphone??since i can hear the other person perfectly...

on vodafone UK here - this problem is bloody bloody annoying - i end up saying hello twice if not 3 times to people - really poor. Xperia is failing to do the most simple of tasks - act as a phone which is what it should excell at!

not "xperiancing" any problems here.
running the same setup as aliasneo and i'm on Fido in canada.

ATT TILT Vibration Motor Wont Stop

Hello, I've recently set up ActiveSync for 15 minute intervals during peak time. I set "Vibrate" for New E-Mail Messages. Usually it vibrates for a few short bursts, but at least once per day the vibration motor freezes up and won't stop vibrating until I press the power button. The only other recent change to my settings was that I installed Bandswitch to keep connected to the Edge network and disconnect after 120 seconds. I don't know if this change is related to the vibration problem. Anybody have any suggestions?
if you have Magic Fingers installed, you might try uninstalling it
thanks for the advice, but I don't have Magic Fingers installed
hey. weird cause i used to have the same issue before, my phone whenever it received an email it would not stop vibrating until i removed the battery. lol weird i know. r u using the stock rom? ever since i changed rom's from stock i havent had that problem before.
try flashing ur rom to an upgraded att or htc rom, maybe it would solve ur issue as it did to me
best of luck
I have the exact same issue with incoming emails. For now I have turned off notification. Configuration is pretty generic.
This happened to me...
This happened to me once with the stock ROM. I have since upgraded to the leaked AT&T Tilt ROM and it hasn't happened since.
Any Hints?

I also have this problem, but its not with every e-mail. I receive between 10 and 20 e-mails a day and the continuous motor only happens about once every other day. I'm also on the stock ATT ROM. Anyone figure out what's going on with this?

I'm glad I'm not the only one.
this issue is a bummer
oh yeah this is becoming a real pita
Me too...
Using Blackberry connect on stock ROM on Tilt, new messages occassionally cause a constant vibration until I hit the power button.
Would love to know how to stop this,
ncdave
In my experience I have found that this is caused by the device being forced to do something, i.e. check email, recieve email, before the device is fully "awake". The solution for me was acheived through the use of kaiser tweak. This also means there's a registry mod. for it as well, unfortunately I left my Kaiser at home today. If ylou change the device wake up to something more acceptable such as 15 seconds or 30 seconds instead of the 1 second default you may find this fixes your problem as it has for me!
If you did that, wouldn't you stand the chance of missing most of your phone calls while the phone is sleeping?

Slow to Ring

I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but I've searched high and low and still cannot find a solution.
I'm getting pi**ed off that the Diamond seems to take almost 3/4 rings from a landline before it even makes a peep. The weird thing is, as soon as the landline starts the ringing sound, the diamond lights flashes immediately.
It's almost like the software can't keep up with the hardware. At the moment, I'm missing every single call as the answerphone kicks in before I even know I'm receiving a call.
Any clues/ideas/fixes.
Again sorry if I'm repeating a thread, but I couldn't find the answer anywhere.
here are several threads about this....
I did a search for 'ring'

Was the same on my Trinity device and someone elses Wizard device. A feature of WM perhaps
there is a cab
fixs it..welll sort off
use the search and you will find
i have it on my diamond and its alot beter now
1. seems to me impossible that you, after soooooo much searching didn't find a thread to join instead starting a new one.
2. to my best knowledge (and i read and i really searched) there is no solution to this problem except the usual change the ring tones to mp3/change the rings to wav and a few very dubious cab files that (as a later everybody is complaining) had no effect. there is also one tweak in the Diamond Tweak program that also has no result (at least on my diamond).
3. just to add a slap to the insult, even the BT in my car start ringing before the diamond! i hear the BT device ringing and looking at my diamond i can see that he is still in the "mute but blinking" phase. most of the calls i pick and answer before my diamond's first ring.
4. now going to report this thread and ask some mod to glue it to an existing one. next time search and if not satisfied with the findings just post on an existing thread...
meanwhile you got more help than you deserve.
So friendly......
Fixed it now due to this thread. Disabled phone skin and changed mp3 to wav.
No issues now.

just to stay on the "friendly" side: disabling the phone skin also gives you 10mb of more memory like in this post:

or this one:

and pay attention at others have to say:

why i didn't recommend it to you? because is not so simple. it also disable a few other things. what things? i'll let you find out alone (this time).

Delay before caller can hear me answer.

When I respond to an incoming call I find I have to repeat "Hello" about 3 times before the caller can hear me.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this lag?
I think (but am not certain) that I've had this problem to some degree with all my windows mobile phones to date.
Thanks in advance.
5.
i have same problem and it causes absurd conversations at all calls.
Yeah I am experiencing this. *sigh*
mine too maybe schaps advanced config?
I noticed the same thing but mostly when using a bluetooth earpiece.
Well now since you guys mentions it... i too hve the similar problem... I hve to say hellooo around 3-4 times till they are able to hear me.... anyone else facin this problem...
same here
TLR3 and 05 radio, not using bluetooth, happens on 3g and 2g.
i too have schaps advanced config, tried removing it, no different so can rule that out.
Its not that bad, at worst I have to say "hello" twice. Its a little bit hard to get used to, but no dissaster.
The same thing was affecting my Moto V3i, there was a lag uppon opening the clam before the caller could hear me.
cheers
Got same prob....with radio 07 same with radio 05 n same with all ROMs what I had...
And simillar like moto V3, V6 and also V9

same problem with radio .03
have to admit that it is quite annoying. but i've gotten used to the problem and now i wait about 1-2-3 seconds before saying the first hello and all goes well
I may have found a clue- on my phone when somebody calls the mobile tries to look the contact up in 200+ contacts and this is causing 1-2 secs delay before the phone is ready to answer. If the person's number is unknown i.e. not being transmitted by the carrier the phone responds faster.
havent noticed this prob on my diamond yet,will look out for it in the future
do you guys have your contacts on sim or on the phone?
Possible solution: Start -> Settings -> Phone -> Advanced: uncheck Vibrate device when connection is established and I uncheck when a call is connecting .....
I've noticed this delay too but it is inconsistent, a bit like the rest of the phone, sometimes fast sometimes slow with most functions.
i think it happens to me when the keyboard si locked.. I´ll try to test it..
yes when you answer
you have to wait 1 second or two or people miss your 1st words
im used to it now

X1 SMS Notification problem

Hi all.
I have discovered a problem with an X1.
When recieving a SMS, It will not display I have a new text message...or sms icon on the top title bar.
However, If I go into the messaging.. I will find.. that i have indeed had a new text.
sometimes.. i can check my phone front screen many times..and then only if i go into messaging, will i see the text has actually come ages ago..but no notifications on homescreen or titlebar...but once into messaging... it will show...in blue.. one new sms.
It the stock r3a rom..and no hardspl/anything else installed or on.
I have hard reset, and tried it with zero apps installed...however, it still does it.
Anyone else come across this issue? or more so.. a fix?
Same thing here
I also experienced the same problem. So, if i received a message, but i don't wake my phone, it wont give any sound or any notification. But if i wake it up, there will be a notification about it, although it was sent an hour ago.
Has anyone find the solution for this?
THx
I had a problem a while ago in which the the notifier in Xperia panel would say I have new messages but when I open the message-inbox there's nothing there. So I only recieved texts 10% of the time, very very annoying and I had T-Mobile send it back because it wouldn't work properly even after using SE update service.
Seems like nobody reading this post. LOL
Or nobody has the same problem...
Is everyone experiencing this problem using T-Mobile?
Maybe this is the issue?
Maybe some app you installed is causing the problem. My notifications are working fine and Voice Command even reads them. I have the new Christian WM6.5.

Stock Rom
nothing installed at all. It has just been to SE for repair on Keyboard sticking issue... keys would re-repeat..and have to really depress the space bar.
This is now resolved...but the SMS notification issue still exists.
I wondered if those others suffering also... had A T-Mobile sim.?
Mine is a Generic_UK device and was purchased outright for £500 from expansys...and has not been flashed in anyway except official upgrades. (work device... my personal device is flashed more times than i would care to admit.)
For what it's worth, my boyfriend has the same problem, and he's on AT&T.

Why is it we are having multiple problems with this issue... and no one really has ever addressed it?
Seems to be an issue that is fundamental to a phone nowadays..
I once had the problem that indeed the notification popped up but the message was not stored in the sms directory. Anyway, installing a new rilphone and radio solved that problem for me. Why don't you try different rilphones or radio if you did not already?
Sorry that I can't really help here...

[Q] O4X mutes itself...sometimes

To my issue: on occasion, my phone mutes itself. The onscreen display doesn't show my end as being muted (pressing and repressing does nothing). I end up having to end the call and call again, which is a pain after being on hold for 20 minutes.
I can find no rhyme or reason for this behavior either. Most of the time it's on outgoing calls, but happens on incoming also. Happens across networks (VZW, AT&T) and with landlines (calling my bank). This has happened in the morning, afternoon and at night, though it doesn't happen in the middle of a call, only the beginning. Just seems to be random.
I've browsed through the 3845#*880#/hidden menu but didn't find any sort of relevant tests. If anyone has any thoughts and/or solutions as to what's going on, be happy to hear 'em.
Thanks

i had this issue, pinpointed it down to viber, for some reason. uninstalled it, and it works fine now. a workaround is, during the call, switch to speaker, then normal again, your mic should be working for a minute or so

Thanks for the timely reply Flying_Bear.
I don't have Viber installed (assuming it's an app/service called Viber, not com.lge.viber or something). The sole reason I went root was to clean out the bevy of junk that comes preinstalled. Unfortunately, your work-around didn't work either. Just called my bank and switching between speaker and earpiece had no effect; the operator still couldn't hear me.
Any other guesses?
I did find this from another thread, reads like CM10 might do the trick, but I'd rather not go that route if possible. This seems to be a known, albeit infrequent, yet annoying issue.

oh well, it seems that our problems, even though they have similar simptoms, aren't caused by the same thing. i can't give you much, except the standard factory reset / reflash .kdz advice. good luck!
