[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?

[Q] Mic Problem during video recording and Zoe

Hi guys, I noticed that when I use video recording or Zoe, the mic would pick up some sort of buzz sound in a very quiet environment, which is annoying. This happened to both of my Ones, is that normal? Thanks!

Actually, this comes from the speakers, not from the microfone. Mic works fine, don't worry.
This 'buzz' probably comes from software issues, as some people reported that deactivating "boomsound" made it better.
I have no problem with that, as the audio (from calls, videos, etc.) usually hides it.
Hope I could help!

Hey! Thanks for the reply. But when I uploaded the video to computer and watch it on computer, there's still a strong background noise in a quiet environment. I am wondering if mine is defective or it's just how it should be.

Well, you could test another One (see what I did there?) to determine whether your device has a defective mic.
Or, that buzzing could be a product of the 'noise reduction' encoder/software that is being used by HTC. Could you upload a demonstration of the problem? Maybe on youtube. Then I can test on mine to be sure!

Hey . I uploaded the video on Youtube and there isn't any noise at all! So I think the player I'm using on my computer might be the issue. (The KMPlayer). So this shouldn't be HTC One's problem. Thank you so much for your help. :laugh:
Oh here is the video. No noise at all on youtube. Very strong background noise on my computer using KMPlayer, and some background noise if played on HTC One.

[Q] Extremely low in call volume.

My HTC One has extremely low in call volume from the mic. I can hear the person I am calling or who called me fine but they can't hear me or barely able to hear me. I downloaded a sound recorder app and when I talk into the mic in that app it plays back at a reasonable volume. Would a different radio file fix this problem?

I had this issue with my One X for awhile, come to find out, there was lint stuffed up in the mic hole.. Check that first.

I am having the same problem. when I am in call, if i switch to speaker phone it instantly becomes loud clear. I am going to RUU back to stock GPE or stock Sense to see if it fixes the problem.
Ill report back to you if it does.

did it work?

I have the same problem with my replacement phone. I'm sending it back to TMO for another. From what I've read it seems like a hardware issue related to the noise cancelling microphone.

My nexus 5 arrives tomorrow. Once I have that in hand, I am going to fully wipe my HTC One, RUU back to stock and S ON the phone to be sent back to HTC for a replacement. I will test the microphone before sending it back to see if the full RUU fixes it but I doubt it will.
I flashed several diff firmwares, h boots, kernels, roms etc on the phone and none of them had an effect of the mic. The microphone problem appeared out of no where when I was running a rom and kernel combination that previously had no issues. In other words, I changed nothing and the problem arose. No combination of software changes yielded any improvement in my limited testing. I am quite sure this is not a solvable problem as it is hardware related and that you should likely send your phone in for a replacement.

[Q] Strange call problem

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?

Speaker Volume Changing

Speaker Volume starts loud then decreases. This happens when playing any media through speakers. I've tried different roms and the issue continues to persist. Has anyone else had this problem. Any feedback or solution would be greatly appreciated.

its a mostly aosp bug, you are missing files. itll be there until your roms fix the issue.

In having the same issue.
This occurs on stock and custom roms so if it's a bug then it's effecting stock too.

Just got my phone and i have the same sad issue.... When i play music through the speakers and turn the vol all the way up its loud then immediately fades to low volumes.
I cannot get a constant play of any media at full volume
I am completely stock unrooted
Any solutions? Or should I send this thing back?

do you know how to fix that ? any link to a commit or sth. ? building omnirom for myself, and i wasn't able to figure the problem out...

I have the same issue on CM12. Couldn't comment on stock as I used it for all of 10 mins.
Seems there is some kind of audio normalization service running in the background. Doing a pretty crappy job of it.
Software issue it seems. I'm surprised there haven't been more reports of this. Its getting quite annoying. Finally I have front facing speakers on my phone and what does it do? Lowers the volume to half.

if u can identify the service, cant we just shut it down or prevent it from running which does this horrible stuff
also I have noticed it happens at lower battery level not when its more than 50%

Noticed it today for the first time while playing a game

Just had this freaky thing happen to me today, for the first time since I've had the phone which I have had for over 2 months now. Stock and unrooted. It did not do it to me before today that I ever noticed so I don't know what to make of it. But I hope it may be software related but who knows.

I ended up RMA'ing my device and the new one doesn't do this on the stock ROM or third party (tested SlimLP) so I am thinking it might be more of a hardware issue. Will check to see if my 64GB MB does this as well, but so far the replacement phone has fixed this annoying issue and volume stays the same while playing youtube video's / music.
RMA was painless dealing with Motorola direct, even though I bought the phone through AT&T, and with Advanced RMA it only took over the weekend (RMA started on Friday afternoon) and the device showed up today. Couldn't have been more pleased with the ease of this.

Try viper 4 android. It fixed my volume issue.

I thought I was imagining this when it happened a few times, then I was blaming poor quality music streams but evidently there is an issue. It also happens occasionally with my headphones.

Did anyone find a fix for this? Does viper for android work??

I just bought a Nexus 6 - hope it doesn't have this problem.

I currently have this issue, volume is dropping more than 50% after like 2 seconds at full volume. From what I could read from all over the forums, it really looks like a hardware issue, it's pretty random. Guess my N6 is going back to my carrier as soon as I can get to them when they're open!
