Call Volume

Having come from the HD2 I was suprised to not be able to change the ring type on the DHD, for instance I always used to have my phone set to vibrate then ring with an increasing ring volume, yet with the DHD I dont seem to be able to do this..
Is there an app or something I am missing perhaps?

168 reads and no replys?
Am I missing something so obvious that everyone is just ignoring me or does nobody else actually use/want that feature?

Nope, you are not missing something.
It's not like the HD2.
I am unaware of any such application, but given the number of applications, there should be one!

I know its not the "same" as the HD2 but you would expect something simple like that to be possible surely..

Wow! Android doesn't have this option? I knew I should have stayed in WM 6.5...
Grumblings aside, I've found this post in a forum:
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-tips-tricks/115984-vibrate-then-ring.html
Basicaly, they say to use an app called Ringriser and use an increasing volume together with "ring and vibrate at same time" or use "ring and vibrate" (with a custom ringer) and create a ringtone with some seconds of silence in the beginning.

Get an Admin to move this to development tread + see if some one picks it up
Id like to see a vibration setting where it can be altered - to buzz more or less also.
Ive missed a few calls due to the low speaker o/p and an alternating buzz (with tweaks) would be great

Some of the SMS notification apps in market offer the ability to change vibration modes etc, but I haven't seen any specifically for a phone call. If spotted will re post.

By the way jusk want to ask a question...
Can we change the speaker,dont understan about hardware but can we use an other produced or suitable speaker for dhd ?

[Q] Keeping ringtone high?

One thing that really bothers me is that when my phone rings the ringtone starts low and then slowly the volume increases. I havent found a setting for this and I was wondering if someone else found a solution for my problem.

same problem, hoping someone can help

Im also wondering about this. it's kinda anoying.

I also have this stupid bug, annoys the hell of me, as i work in a noisy place i often cannot hear the phone ringing before its finished...

I've tried to find a solution, but still no luck.. It's not a largely discussed item yet..

But i cant hardly believe we are the only one with this issue...

Did somebody find a solution ?

Can't help with the soft-to-loud ringtone problem.
But to get a loud ringtone, I sound edited a ringtone file to play as loud as possible (with some distortion) and worked quite well. Not loud enough for a construction site, but OK for most noisy indoor situation. I used Audacity on a PC to increase the playback decibel (I think +5db made noticeable difference).

Thanks for the answer...
It's my first android phone (comin' from a htc touch diamond 2), is it a common problem with android phone or it's only with the o2x?
Is the problem only on stock rom or also on custom (modaco, CM7,...)?

i want a rom for regular use.cm 7 official is marvelous d one n only problem i face is this issue.mini cm7 is slower than official cm7.so any one fix this issue i think sound configuration will be easy for developers.Its a minor bug.volume control is not correct making mad while calling

Install some kind of Audio mod like SRS Truemedia. It increases the volume of audio and also decreases distortion. Give it a try !

[Q] [B]péééééééééééééééép'[/B] - Very high pitched loud beep on speaker

6my\ laptop-/keyboard\ is\ broken\ \,\ please\ forgi5ve\ 6me\\ for\ all\ the\ errors
my laptop-keyboard is broken, please forgive me for all the errors
Hi all,
I still have a problem with sound-quality during a call.
When I put a call on speaker Ihear a very high-pitched loud béééééééééép.
It sounds a bit like what you get when you put a microfone next to a speaker that is transmitting sound from that speaker.
Everybody heras it, on the other side of the call it seems it even overwhelms my voice, effectively rendering a call impossible.
If I do not put a call on speaker I can speak with the person on the other side. But on the other side of the call it sounds as if my Phone is wrapped in blankets. Some described it different: "it sounds like you have put bass way up to the max and disabled all high- and mid-tones."
It sounds rather like a hardware-problem, BUT.... (and this is where I no longer understand it),
it does NOT happen with stock-ROmS...
It happened with JellyBam and Paranoid Android, does not happen with stock, ROmAUR or Experiment.
my conclusion is that it either is caused by cm10 or by JB (4.1.2).
Does anyone have any suggestions to as what Icould do at this stage_? Iam at this moment running ROmAUR but I really miss JB....
Grtz Henro.
Hi,
Whenever I put my phone on speaker while making a call, I hear this very high-pitched tone: péééééééééééééééép.
This sound is so high/loud that even colleagues in the office next to mine hear it. (And complain about it)
On the other side of the line it is heard too, people complain that they find it hard to have a conversation with me when I put the phone on speaker.
I am running Paranoid Android 2.56 Utacka (JB) now. The first day I had the phone it happened too, but I do not recall whether that was before or after PA 2.56 Utacka was installed.
It is only when I put a call on speaker. Games, music, video, recorde audio, it all runs fine. But as soon as I put a call on speker....
péééééééééééééééép'
Any suggestions?
Grtz Henrov

You are probably in a place where the mic or speakers are giving off feedback from another mic or speaker wherever you are.

:good:
The first time I was at work, alone in my office, calling my girlfriend while she was at home. ..
There was no other device around to create a loop. My laptop was still in it's bag...
I will however try again in a few moments when I walk the dog, there will be no device with a mic or speaker to disturb

Cannot reproduce it anymore. Maybe it was something in my environment...

There you go next time you're in that same area look around and see what might cause the feedback.

Try to turn on noise suppression as well in dialer settings. Might help, maybe not.

How do you enable this in Jellybean?

Open up the dialer, chose settings, tick background noise suppression.

It is back. Consistently. I tried reinstalling, different roms, different volumes, different dialers, noise surpression...
Nada!
Last resort; try it on stock rom...

Collector title.
Sony Xperia T - Stock ROM - 4.1.2 Stock Leaked Launcher - Rooted soon.

So it seems cm10 related
I have been trying a lot of stuff and I m fairly sure now it happens on CM10 based ROMS.
Any one knows something about this? Suggestions?

Design faux par
I think it's down to the fact the speaker is right next to the mic on the phone. What [email protected] thought that one up. If you put your finger over the read speaker does it stop squeeling?

I'm not so sure that you could describe it as a faux pas. I often use the device on loudspeaker and actually never faced that problem, not on stock nor on CM. It seems to be either a) a different situation the device is used in (see below) or b) is device-specific which I somehow doubt.
I get the back coupling whining, but only if I'm on loudspeaker and the person I'm calling is in the same room, also on loudspeaker. Then my device picks up it's own echo on the other persons loudspeaker. But I believe this is not the case discussed in this thread as this would be the case with ANY communications device used in this setup, not only cellphones.

is there any solution for that?
with cm11 there is a whistle sound wwhen turn on loadspeaker . with the stock rom there is no whistle sound, but the caller hear it self twice .
what is going on with that phone?

Recording volume issue :(

I've just noticed that the mic isn't working on my video recorder. I've tested it on memos and it works, but not when video recording. Maybe memos uses a different mic to record sound? I've tried to stick a pin in the mic hole to see if maybe Its dirt, but no change. I'm running the latest firmware and maximus 30.0... Anyone able to help? Thanks.

Could be a hardware problem. But if it had never happened before or from the very first time you have used the video function try flashing a different rom.

I have a video recording from a couple of days ago and Its working fine. I can only think that rain water has somehow got in and damged it :/. Ill flash a different rom and see what happens, fingers crossed lol

Did you ever figure out a fix for your issue? I've been having the same problem lately. I recorded a video today and the microphone volume was incredibly low and I could barely hear myself talking, even when I put the volume up to the max. It seems to only be an issue when taking a video because I tried a voice call, a speakerphone call, and a skype video call and each time the microphone was loud and clear. I have a video that I recorder about a month ago and it is plenty loud so it seems to be a new issue. I'm out of ideas...any thoughts?
Thanks

What ROM are you running? Does it improve after a reboot? Does it come back again later?

Thanks for the quick response. I'm running stock (not rooted). I tried rebooting and still have the same issue. There's no way to adjust the recording microphone volume in the camera app, correct? I wish I could figure out the issue. I suppose I could try rooting and installing a custom ROM, but I'm happy enough with stock. If you have any other suggestions, I'd very much appreciate it.

Hey, take a look at this thread below and see if this describes your problem. It's probably happening because audio is only being recorded from the left channel only. Bug since kitKat update and very annoying.

Yes! This must be my problem because I checked the video I recorded and I only hear sound on the left channel. Thanks for showing me that thread, I was afraid it was a problem with just my device. This bug needs to be fixed ASAP.
