[Q] Perception 9.5: Call volume thru headphone very low

When I make/get a call while having my phone plugged into my car stereo's Aux input, the call volume is very low. I previously though it simply wasn't coming through at all, but I happed to get a call while the engine was off, and could just barely hear the call volume through the stereo. Even after cranking the phone, stereo & aux level setting in my stereo, the volume's still too low to be used while driving.
Is there a fix, setting, or work-around for this? I really enjoyed using this as my hands-free solution.
One more thing, when I use the stock earbuds with a mic that came with the phone, the volume's fine. I know the phone recognizes headphones with and without a mic from using Tasker.
Thanks in advance!

Talk while auxiliary plugged in

hey,
I usually listen to Pandora in my car on my N1 , i have the aux cord so you know it goes to speakers. but when i get a phone call i have having to unplug the aux cord just so they can hear me. I can hear them fine through the speaker in my car. I guess its like this because N1 assumes i plugged in a headset and cuts off the internal mic. how can I use the internal while I have a aux or just plane headphones plugged in.
Thanks

When I use pandora with the aux cord and a call come in, I just talk like normal, they can hear me and I can hear the caller on my car speakers. How far away is the phone to you? Mine is mounted only like a foot away from me.

i put the phone right to my face haha

I have the same issue, I think its because of how far the phone is, however I usually just use the speaker phone, then once the call ends the music resumes

[Q] Mic muted when audio jack in use

Anyone else noticed that the mic is muted whenever you plug something in the audio jack? This means if you are plugging your phone to the aux port in your car, you can't make/receive calls unless you unplug it. On the focus it worked fine. You can test it by starting a call, then plugging anything to the jack - mic is muted right away. Couldn't find any settings to override this either.

I don't have that issue. I plug my phone into the aux port all the time and it works fine.

Yep

I have the same issue. Was great to have a conversation while plugged into the car audio with the Focus. Now we're limited to the speakerphone, which just isn't loud enough to be useful. Maybe when the Diagnostics app gets mapped out better we'll find a setting...
Probably gonna buy a cheap headset, cut off the ear buds and splice the wires to a cable with a 3.5mm jack.

It would make sense for the internal mic to be shut off when a headset cable is plugged in, since the working assumption (I guess) would be that there is a mic on the headset taking over. It's most likely a 'mechanical' shutoff in the jack itself, with no 'checking' to actually see if there is a mic connected on the cable or not.

The issue is, the old focus, the Titan, and about all other cell phones don't do this. They allow the internal mic to work while using the 3.5mm jack.

Headphone / speaker bug

Has anyone else encountered this? Sometimes if I plug headphones in and listen to music, then unplug the headphones afterwards, then the speaker would not work. I would have to plug my headphones in again, pull them out, and the speaker would work again. It's almost as if the phone thinks headphones are plugged in even when they are not, and routes the music to the headphone jack instead of to the speaker.

I don't have this issue with the Z3C though i had this issue with my old Xperia S, after couple of months use this resolved it self. must have been a contact point issue in the headphone jack it self.

Diferent
What has happened to me is different, when I'm listening to music on the earphones and then I stop the music and close the Walkman app, and then I play it again I can't listen to anything, If I use the volume controls to turn up/down the volume nothing changes, and I need to unplug the earphones and then plug them in and it works fine then.
I don´t know why this is happening.
Sorry for my bad english

check your headset port (jack)

I've had that problem in the past with a dirty headphone jack. If you use Bluetooth no problem and it works, the headset jack might be the cause.
