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...

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?

Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing problems with the volume of my microphone when I'm in a call.
The persons at the other end of the call can only hear me very silent.
The problems are only exists with the standart phone app, when I'm using a third party app (like sipdroid) my volume is fine...
I'm using Cyanogen 7.0.3 on my Nexus One
Is there a fix for this Problem?
With the stock ROM I don't have this problems but I need a ROM with trackball wake because my power button fails.
I can't RMA my Phone to HTC right now, because I'll be not at home in the next three weeks. Therefore I need my mobile phone with me.
I'd use an other ROM which has TB wake support and no microphone issues but at a quick glance through the forums I couldn't find a suiting one.
Thanks for your efforts to help me
hey, i have a similar problem but i noticed that using different kernel affect the microphone. I'm a noob to this so im not entirely sure if kernel is related to microphone.
Well basically im running miui rom 1.5.6 right now and i was using redstar kernel 38.4 and then i upgraded it to redstar kernel 38.5. Then i called my girlfriend and she could barely hear me. Then i reverted back to 38.4 and she hears me now much louder but not the clarity isn't as good.
You using DT a2sd by any chance?
Damn, my phone froze today at work and I had to pull the battery.
Now I can't power it on again due to the not working power button...
Battery trick doesn't work either.
So I guess I have to take the bitter pill and RMA it right now.
Holy sucks! What's the battery trick...just incase.
Can anyone suggest any 'good' solution? kernel or otherwise to fix this $#@$# 'bug' of low in-call volume in Nexus One??
Would really appreciate all the help!
If people hear you very quiet - look up the mod to disable noise cancellation. If the problem will disappear with noise cancellation disabled - it means your 2nd mic is faulty and needs replacement.

Nope, people hear me well. Its that I cannot hear well. Specially in traffic, I usually tell them that I shall call them back
Any help?
Look up Gingerbread volume control app in Development forum. It can override the system settings and make the volume much louder than the maximum stock, AFAIK.
Thanks, but this app is not working for everyone AFAIK.
Hey there!
I am very happy with my HTC One even after the announcement of the M8, but since a few days I have a very strange problem.
Every time I try to take a call, I need to enable the speaker, since the one I am calling with can't hear me without.
It seems like my voice is there, but really really quite.
I was using Viper One till today and it happened between 5.60 and 5.70, but today I changed the rom to see whether it could be a rom problem and using now InsertCoin SixthSense 1.0.1.
My HTC One is unlocked, S-OFF and of course rooted... any idea, what could fix my really quite voice, instead of screaming or using the speaker the whole time? I don't like it, when everybody can hear me talking on the phone, I'm no Eric Cartman.
Record some video with very loud sounds. Try blowing or whistling directly into the mic . Sounds crazy but it has worked for others.

Will try both "fixes" tomorrow.
So it's a already known problem for some users?
Btw: I tried to use Shazam and it also nearly identifies no music, even if it is in front of the speaker. So it has to be something with the normal mic. But why does it work flawlessly, when talking with the speaker enabled?
I suppose it could affect all mic functions. I personally experienced this with phone calls and personally fixed it with loud recordings (as did others), i didn't check shazam ..

Okay tried it a few days ago with whistling directly into the mic and it didn't fixed my problem.
So I decided to try the extremely loud recording and it sadly also didn't worked.
But I found out, that it has been gotten worse than before. My recordings on 29.03 went with a few quite whistles, but my recording yesterday couldn't record any whistle at all and only got music, after I increased the volume to +300 and it's still really quite.
I also tried to flash a new radio and kernel, none of them fixed anything.
So I guess, flashing back to stock and bringing it to a repair station is the last chance I have?
Hi XDA Long time no see!
I've been using my Z3 compact since it was launched her in India and I love it in every way.
One strange bug bugs me though(huehuehuehue).
You'll need two phones , one of which is a z3 compact (dunno if big brother z3 has the same issues), This is best done in a slightly noisy environment
Steps to replicate the bug
1) Call from one phone to the other and answer it. (do not connect any headphones to Z3C at this point)
2) Speak into the Z3C's mic while listening into the other phone (Keep the other phone's mic muted if necessary as this isnt needed and can reduce "feedback" or that screeching and echoing). Notice the clarity of your voice as heard on the other phone
3) While keeping the call running, connect a pair of headphones (any normal 3.5mm jack even the noise cancelling ones will do)
4) Speak again into the Z3C's mic while listening into the other phone.
For me, at step 4, I notice that the voice (after connecting headphones) sounds suddenly distant, echo-ey and there's a lot of background noise that gets thru.
If i disconnect the headphones the voice gets back to the original superb clarity.
Does anybody else notice the same behaviour? It's a bit annoying honestly as i want to take calls with headphones on but I cant.. because the person on the other line cant hear my voice at all
Is there a solution? I tried fiddling around in call settings but nothing helps.
EDIT 1: just to clarify I'm referring to headphones here without any form of inbuilt seperate mics. all mics used in this test are the ones the phone has
The phone obviously has a mic of higher quality. Also there's a secondary mic to filter out the noise. An earphone has no such thing. So the call clarity on phone will be much better than on earphone. It's not a bug. That's how it's supposed to be.

I use headphones (not earphones) I mean the ones without a mic.. just with audio out channels.
Same logic either way the wires cause degradation.

wires??? what wires?? I;m talking about the mics inbuilt on the phone. my headphones have no mics. They're JUST HEADPHONES.
could someone please try out the steps i spoke about before replying?
EDIT 1: @Sadman Khan: I think I get what you're saying but i think you've misunderstood what I was saying in the first place.. er.. ok damn this explanation is tough let me try to put this pictorially
EDIT 2: OK pictorial representation of the problem is now attached
I'm not sure man. Maybe because your headphones still use the phone's mic which tends to be a bit far away from your mouth. So basically the mic can't pick up the sound as clearly as the time when you are speaking directly into the phone. I see no other reason for your problems.

nope.. I hold the phone right in front of my face.... ~1 cm away from my mouth....

Hey folks,
I had the problem with the stock ROM and now I have the similar problem with jackeagels 5.5.1 (SM-G800F).
My microphone works sometimes and sometimes doesn't. People I want to call can't hear me. Eventually after a few calls they do. This is a state I don't want to stay in so does one has any idea what the problem could be? A while ago I pulled some dust out of the mic hole (with a needle) but that doesn't seem to be the problem here
Mines always been dust in the hole. Get compressed air can and blast it. Very annoying.
Hey Guys!
I have a similar problem but only when I use the internal mic, the problem does not occur when I use my headset.
Sometimes, the people I'm calling say that they can hear me very quietly.
Mostly, they say that they hear a constant noise or sound like a "bom bom bom" which is in the background. I can't hear this sound myself and as I said it does not occur when the headset is plugged in.
Any help is appreciated!
Regards, Jens
What phone model? What OS?
The main mic is at the bottom, near USB port. Recording a voice note without earphone, of course, works? The mic hole is dirt or blocked somehow?

Thanks for your reply.
It is a G800F with CyanogenMod 13.
I tested the issue after my initial post with the voice recorder in detail.
So the sound is a kind of buzzing like in the early days of mobile phones when you put your phone near a radio and you get an incoming call.
When I record with the voice recorder, then I hear the buzzing. It is stronger when I say something and quiter when I record silence. Then I also made the same test with my headset, and, unfortunately the buzzing also occured. The intensity was bit lower I think but the sound was there.
Unfortunately, I never tested it with the stock rom. Could this problem be related to a software problem? I'm not sure if I backup my CM and install a stock rom for testing...
Thx!
Yeah, the best way to mak sure it's not software is backup and going back to stock. If it still doesn't work then you have a hardware issue almost certainly...
Hello everyone,
First of all, I would honestly like to praise how good the Z3 Compact looks, feels, and performs. I got it 2 days ago (from a non-Sony supplier), and I don't regret investing in it.
I have a problem, though, and it's the only one on this device - the microphone during calls. There's this echo that the other party hears when calling me, and on top of that, my microphone's quality is not the best.
Since it's new, I don't want to open it up and see what's wrong with it, but my guess is that both microphones (the second belonging to the camera) are on during calls and that's what makes the echo - the other party's voice is heard via the second mic and it gets sent back to them with a small delay.
Is there a software-related solution to this? I'm running the latest SliMM (6.0.1) with an unlocked bootloader. Thanks in advance for all your help!
Its most likely just a software problem, try fiddling with the Call Settings in Settings and see if anything there helps alleviate the problem if not, try using another Audio Engine ( e.g Beats Audio, Viper ) and see if that helps.
Also check if its a signal related problem, slurred speach and cut audio are signs of low/poor cell signal. Good luck

Thanks! I will definitely mettle with audio mods, but as far as Call Settings go, I've already disabled the "Mic noise suppression" feature, which makes a difference, but the echo is still present.
The bug is still present, by the way. Should I find an actual fix for it, I will update this post.

Update: It has nothing to do with the Android version nor the ROM...the microphone picks up whatever the speaker plays during a phone call.

I had similar issue. I disabled 'Microphone Noise Suppression' in call settings and it helped. Give it a try.

I have already done that, a long time ago, but it doesn't help. It does make my own voice sound more clear, if anything.
EDIT: I seem to have found the cause of this problem, and more on that can be found here. The thing is, the Google App and the "OK Google" feature are active in the background at all times, which might be what causes both microphones to always remain on. So what's the solution? Get rid of the Google App - freeze it, delete it with Link2SD, whatever.
I will definitely keep checking if that truly is the solution, and I'll definitely ask the mods to close this post, once everything's clear.
