Speaker Phone Annoying

Hey guyz i was just wondering u know you put it on loud speaker, the person on the other line always hears an echo of his voice and they can immediatly recognize they're on loud speaker + it's kinda annoying hearing ur own voice. Is there anyway through this? I tried lowering the volume.. no use :/

I think it is either the distance of the phone from your mouth or the phone application itself! I think you do get this even on the normal desk phones, so does the N9210!

my bet is feedback from mic to speaker
all devices which have a mic and a speaker can get feedback
but most likely it would be something they could fix in the software

cybermate it's not Me who i hear the echo of.. the person talking to me always hears His echo and it's annoying to the people i talk to and sometimes id rather talk by speaker because im like typing or something ..

Yup, every time I use speaker phone I am told to get my head out of the bucket.

because speaker phone inc the vol the mic can recieve the sounds comming from the speaker
thats why they can hear themselfs
every time i have my head in a bucket while speaker with people on my xda2 people tell me to disable speakerphone

yeah same here !! shouldn't they have THOUGHT of that at least !! it is important to some people !

I have the same problem any fixes for it.

Yes, me too on my QTEK 9100. Unfortunatley most of my day is spent in long conference calls and the speakerphone is a must! Anyone with any fixes please let me know.
When ever I use it people complain that they can a) hear themselves and b) can hear alot of hissing sounds

Getting Skype To Use Phone Speaker rather than PDA Speaker

Hello
I have an XDAIIi and am using skype. Ive found that skype outputs to the main pda speaker, not the phone speaeker, and the quality is not a good as the phone one and of course everyone can hear your conversation.
Is there anything I can do or do we have to wait for skype to support this (if they even can?)
Are there any other applications that manage to use the phone speaker?
Thanks for any feedback
Brian

Hi Brian,
I have a Skype with my XDA2i as well & if someone calls me, my XDA's earpiece was the default. If I want to use my XDA's speakerphone (handsfree or where everybody can hear the caller), all I did was to press & hold the "call" button (they also call this as "send" button, the one you press when you answer a phone call) for around 3 seconds. If I want to deactivate the speakerphone, I press the same button for about 3 seconds.
Hold & pressing "call" button for about 3 seconds will activate/deactivate speakerphone. If you still have the XDA2i user manual, kindly check page 48.
I hope this will help you.

you mean your skype can actually work with the earpiece or you mean normal telephone call works by default with the earpiece?

Vmirage & Brian,
I'm so sorry & it was my mistake. I did not realize what I'm typing a while ago. No, you cannot use XDA2i earpiece while on call, the default is the speakerphone (PDA's speaker). Instead, I use my XDA's earphone to have a privacy while on Skype's voice call.
I got mixed up with a normal call & the Skype's voice call.
Again, my apologies.

Have you tried this?

From the authors website
Please, don't even try to run it on other PDAs - it's absolutely pointless

So no I didn't bother

try your BT headset, as IIi support audio gateway. just press the answer button on your BT headset & the sound will be rerouted.

unfortunatly I don't have a headset and really just want to use the phone as normal

Bluetooth headset call button problem.

I got TyTN and at the same time I got a SE HBH-DS970 bluetooth headset. Ofcourse there is the skipping problem playing music and the extremly anoying all-sounds-transfer-to-headset issue.
But from what I see others have posted there really no good tweak or reg hack to fix that until there is a rom upgrade.
But my other issue I have is an other thing. I have played around a bit with MS Voice Commander, and I like it alot. I done the regfixes to lock it to the callbutton on the headset and so, but here is where I get my problem.
Pressing the callbutton on the headset works, it launch Voice Commander, but for some reason the sound is rather bad, I hear some noise in the background, kinda just it have picked up the phone or started to use some "amplified" microphone (can't find a better way to describe it, but for some reason the headsets microphone seems to be amplifed).
It also take about 1-3 sec before I see Voice Commanders microphone in the topbar on the screen.
It is very anoying since it more or less make voicecommander useless, the "amplified" microphone (or what is is that generate the noise) is alot more sensitive and if it isn't totaly silent around you it simply wont understand me.
This "noise" only happens if I use the Callbutton on the headset and not if I use the button on the phone itself, if I press the button directly on the phone and launch the program like that it works perfect, no noise, program launch in a sec and you hear Voice Commanders beep in the headset and it work perfect.
I just wonder if anyone else have a similare problem like me and if anyone know a fix/tweak or something.

Where might I find those reg fixes?
My Motorola S9 headset phone button doesn't launch M$ Voice Command.

Did you use the instructions in the massively long thread regarding MS VC 1.6 and BT?
As for the delay, those instructions do tend to induce a delay, but as for a hyper sensitive mic, not sure. I do know that using the handset for VC is WAY more sensitive to noise than my Jawbone.

Sound problems - only vibration, no alarm, no conversation but ringtone?

Hello everyone, my Hermes worked a looong time very fine but now i cant hear the normal "beep" when i adjust the volume. Also i hear no conversation when i phone somebody. Alarm sound is off too. I hardresetted it once but it didn't help. The weird thing is: I can hear the ringing sound when i get a phone call?!
It looks like the other person can't hear me either, thats a bit weird because i thought this isnt a speaker but a microphone problem... Two components crashed on one day? WTF? Need help

I have seen this problem with a different htc phone.
their may be a bit of dirt across the miniusb contacts making the phone think it is connected to a headset.
plugin a mini usb cable and waggle it round a bit then test calling someone hopefully that should cure it for you.

I have a very very similar problem with my Vario II. The sound is VERY intermittent. Sometimes it rings but when I pickup there is no sound either way, from the earpiece or mic, the other person cannot hear me. Most of the time the phone just vibrates (set to Ring and Vibrate) so I know there is a message or a call coming...not that I can answer the call. Tried soft resetting it and even changing the ROM, only works for about 5 minutes then the sound is gone again.
The device only works as a phone with a blue tooth headset, the rest of the time it is just a PDA....that vibrates.

Calls problem

Hi all. Do u have this same problem with your x1 like me? When someone is ringing me and i answer the phone then sometimes i cant hear hear his voice and he cant hear me either in 1st few seconds. After 2, 3seconds is normal.
I tryed few differend roms and this same problem. Is it something wrong with the phone, or this is normal in x1????

please raply yes or no.

Yes it's normal in X1, no there is nothing wrong with the phone.
I have the same problem. I am used now and wait for about 2 seconds before I say 'hi' When I call someone or when I get called and press the green button, it takes a few seconds before the person hears me. I think that it's normal in X1, but it is quite irritating. My opinnion about X1 is that the phone is really nice to use different applications but the calling performance is below average.
These are few things that I don't linke about the x1 (beside the problem that its mentioned in this topic):
- calling volume is too high, even when I set the volume to lowest level. People next to me can hear the person who I am speaking. (So, I don't mention the speaker on the left-bottom, but on the top.)
- The speaker on the bottom is really on a bad place. You can easily cover the speaker with your finger or handpalm. If that happens, you can't hear the sound.
- The microphone of the standard headset is really bad quality. The person can't hear me well.
- When I put the headset on and someone is calling me, the ringtone rings both on the headset and the speaker of the x1 on the bottom.

thank u very much. i`m glad someone reply on my post.
