Hi everyody,
since i have my LG O2X, stock, modaco and then CM, I perform a very bad audio quality during calls: it's like distorded sound (very crappy) but the volume level is the lowest possible.
Is it possible to change audio codec or perform any solution to growing better this situation?
Or maybe do I have to think that's a hardware failure and i have to send the phone in asssitence?
Thank you very much.
Do you have latest baseband ?
It improves sound quality during phone calls
yes, i have it.
When i bought the device, i had the 20110315 baseband and everything was fine.
Unfortunally I had to sell the phone in assistence for a lcd trouble (insensitive in the middle up); when it came back, it has the v10b (before was 10a) firmware and the last radio 20110405 and.. this crappy problem!
I tried many roms, but the problem persists.
Do I have to revert to the oldest radio? Assistence again???
the in-call volume seems to be high even when it is reduced to the lowest.. is this to do with the baseband aswell?
That's correct: the in call volume seems to be high (very high - distorted) also when the volume is set to min.
The fact is that you can hear the volume level going lower, but the distortion persists.
Thanks for your suggests and help.
I also have that problem in the incoming sound but it is not only the incoming sound that is bad, the outgoing sound is also really bad. People that I use to call complaint about the sound of my calls. It began since I installed the cyanogen rom
I have the shame problem, people say my voice is noisying. And noticed that only happens under 2G, clear using 3G.
No problem with stock/modaco.

Hey, me too. my device began that annoying problem since installed CM. And also for me, people that listen to me told me that the sound is noising.
I reverted to modaco and then to stock, but the problem persists.
I have had this on stock rom, when i got the phone about 4 weeks ago, had the phone replaced via the VIP service, new phone never had it again (no matter what rom).
Had very distorted sound but also followed by no sound, while call connection remained.
Sometimes a battery pull helped for a bit, till it started again.
The distortion is almost like electrical disturbance...
Bad news... maybe I have to send it back again...
This evening i try to reinstall radio image, let's see what happens.
I think that's definitely a hardware's failure.
I reflashed 04052011 and 03152011 radio image and both were crappy...
If no-one here has a solution for this problem, monday i will send my phone back... again!
In the hidden menu (1809#*990#) i found the sub menu "Sound Test -> Audio CAL Tool" with many audio settings. Is there anyone that can suggest the right one for the call-in/out sound?

Hope that helps somehow..
thanks rejj, but these are the same settings that i have.
I was looking for someone that can understand them and suggest me new combinations.
Hi, you can't change anything because,because LG did not write the method that changes the values. the only solution would be change them in the kernel
thanks simonsy, i think that tomorrow my phone will back in assistance...
what a pity, a great device and can't use it...
Well, I have the same issue!
I have the stock rom, updated just ago to 20110405 v10b (I tought i've had v10a before).
The call quality is realy worse, on speaker it is verry clear!
edit: I've also got the same values as shown above in rejj's post.
if someone could edit this value in the kernel, the value are stored in sys/platform/devices/star_wm8994/data
in particular the value that change the volume of the speaker are the register 1f, 20, 21
please someone that is able to compile and edit kernel, could try to change this value?
anyone got link to the latest baseband?
I've installed Skype and called their testing service to test my quality!
Skype doesn't seem to have these problems???
Me and my friend both have a galaxy s both running jw4 and his phone is louder when playing the same songs....only difference is im on semaphore kernel and on his phone everything is stock..Any ideas why its like that?
bump please :/
Is he/are you running some sort of Sound Eqaulizer to improve sound qaulity (for Jacks &/or Speaker)?
no but his music EQ is set to custom and everything is max...i do the same and his is still louder...but they were the same loudness when i flashed them to new firmwares
could it be semaphore thats causing this?
I am a long-time user of CyanogenMod, but I have never flashed a non-"stock" kernel into CM until recently. I tried the Devil and Semaphore Kernels, and while performance was excellent, my Captivate's speaker is problematic with both of them.
First, the speaker is extremely loud regardless of how low I set the volume. This volume issue does not appear when the speaker is disabled.
Second, when I activate the speaker, the person with whom I am speaking complains that I sound "distant and tinny," possibly with a lot of reverberations. This is not the other person's hearing him- or herself. If I disable the speaker, regardless of whether I actually move the phone toward my head, the problem seems to disappear. They can hear me clearly.
Re-flashing CM10 fixes both problems. I have not modified the default settings introduced by either non-stock kernel. Could these issues be due to audio tweaks introduced in those kernels? Does anyone have any suggestions for me if I would like to continue using one of them?
Thank you!
Hello freinds
. my cappy came with froyo 2.2 and i flashed cm 10.1 nightly rom on it. Everything seems to work fine execpt that the loudspeaker volume has decreased very much...then i tryed the captivating xperia themed but the loudspeker volume dint incresed so i decided to go back to stock with odin one click back to 2.2 and now the speker volume is loud like before..i have followed mr trusello's guide to flash the rom the odin way..
Now i want to flash a 4.2 rom without compromising on sound
Any help pls seniors.??????
Thanks
Am i the only 1 facing this issue?
Anyone????
CM Jelly bean has some sound related settings that will be unfamiliar to you coming from Froyo.
on 4.2, did you check the system settings, particularly for DSP manager on the speaker tab? and headset plug in jack safety?
did you download the voodoo sound app and they try unchecking the box for tune speaker for music or other voodoo settings?
As above, it's a bit of a known issue on jb.
If you have a ROM with dsp manager or a similar root sound manager, you can crank up the levels a bit in there by messing with it. I know SLIM has it embedded, same with captivating.
Experiment with some settings and find what works best for you. As far as a permanent fix goes, wait for an update?

thanks bro dsp manager solved the problem
Try Unofficial Semaphore by Nick0703. You'll be amazed now loud your speaker can be. This kernel enables In-Call Volume Controls in Settings>Device.
This refer to minimum sound is so high on headphone. I have this problem on stock ROM 4.3, i think its not so high on 4.1.2.
Same on CM11, minimum sound is lower than stock 4.3. I have tried change volume steps to 50 but didn't help much.
-It is possible to change it by editing or
-there are custom stock ROM with low minimum sound?
Please help me with this, sorry if my grammar wrong.
Use Viper4Android and set the Audio Gain to a negative value
