Hi, I hava an Elfin and today I started to have a problem with the incall audio in the speaker and olso in the earpiece, but when I use the speaker for music or any other sound it works OK, I change ROM, Radio and same problem. Any ideas?
thanks in advance!!!!
You've mentioned problem but haven't specified which kind? Choppy sound, broken coverage, no sound at all. Whats it like? Remove the casing around the speaker and try cleaning it. Dust etc accumulates there pretty quickly. It sounds more like a hardware problem to me....I doubt it would have to do anything with the phone software etc.

thanks for your reply, it sounds like sparks, but the rare thing it only happens during a call, because when I use the speaker for music or other sounds is OK and when use the speaker for a phone call the sparks sound come again!!

Hi guys.
I have a little audio problem with my Himalaya/i-mate/XDA II/MDA II/Qtek 2020 or whatever you like to call it.
The internal speaker seems to have a contact with something metallic or hard plastic. At the max earpiece volume, when calling, the ringing tone is distorted. When lowering the volume, it does not do this. It seems that, when the plastic membrane is moving, to reproduces the loud sound, it touches something hard and it distorts the sound. Does anyone have experienced this? I want to try to fix this. I paid hard won money for this marvellous device, and I do not want my experience to be ruined by bad audio.
Thanks for the help guys!
Not sure if its the same thing but when i played any sound it crakled a little. Did not bother me until the camera sound went on and off every 1 second. Did a hard reset and seemed ok until it happened again so i did another hardware reset went through all the programs i had instaled until it happened again. So i reset a third time without instaling that program(cant remember the name of it) but it works ok now.
I know what you mean Patrick..and if you hold your thumb over the earpiece it sounds a bit better, though of course muffled.
This is something that does bother me as I sometimes use the loudspeaker call option. Other phones don't have this problem in loudspeaker and it surprises me the II does this, as apart from a slightly rattly volume adjuster the build of my II is significantly better than the XDAI.
Just one of those things we have to put up with in order to have such an otherwise great piece of kit, though I'm equally surprised the manufacturers didn't notice it!

Thanks a lot !
Yeah, your description and the thumb thing is exactly what I mean. I wonder if it's the speaker membrane itself or a contact with something? Maybe it could be fixed?
Thanks a lot guys!
It may be a warranty claim, you need full volume when using the speakerphone, get in touch with the service centre.
I have the same exact problem... The sound distorts if you have it set too loud.
I guess it's just the el cheapo speaker or poor design.
Hi guys, i have the same problem and its bugging me alot, any sugesstion or solution???? is it a hardware problem or did we install some software that case this? my XDAII still has warranty do you sugest me to go for service center or just live with this problem.
Thanks
Well Iam not saying its a good thing but Iam happy to see Iam not the only one experiencing this problem with the speaker although I dont own XDA II but XDA IIi or Qtek2020i whatever way you wanna call it. I also wondered if it is a harware problem couldn't we replace the speaker with a better quality one? In my case this jitter mettalic sound does not happen only in speaker mode but also in normal mode as long as the volume is set close to max or max.
My Qtek2020i has the metallic sound only when it's a large amount of humidity and very hot outside.
It seems that the speaker suffer a lot from humidity, it also happen when i keep it in my jeans pocket and i prespire a lot. After half an hour when it dries out, everything is ok.
Hello,
When I got a call, the loudspeaker quality is quite horrible. It´s Metallic !
Like if there was a piece of steel vibrating.
But If I listen music, it´s normal !
Anyone ?
Cheers.
Me too, i thought that my speakers are malfunctioning after spraying screen cleaner!
well thank you, i think it's a problem with the tone or something..
anyone else?
Hi im hoping someone can help me with my problem.
My loudspeaker makes alot of warbling sound when anything is played through them, if you change the volume level it makes the same annoying sound, also sounds like interference.
I have replaced my Loudspeaker unit and I have also now replaced the usb board and wiring, as I understand that this is the power source for the loudspeaker.
The Microphone sounds fine, and the headphones are fine as well, as I can listen to youtube etc with no problems. When ringing somebody as well, there is no problem either, so trying to figure out the source of the problem, as it sounds like radio interference and cracking sort of sound.
It had the problem on stock rom and have now changed the rom to Phoenix, so see if that would fix the problem, but with no luck.
Any ideas anybody?
I have recently replaced my LCD, digitizer, and glass on my LG G2.. had some issues with pins on connectors, but it is working perfect now, as far as the digitizer and LCD. I am now having issues with the loud speaker not working! I've checked all connections and everything seems well.. This isn't too much of a problem, except that every app that uses the loud speaker crashes. Youtube app won't even play videos, dialer won't call out, etc. I would think that it would just not play sound from the loud speaker, I would think dialer would still call and use the ear speaker as normally. I mean it shouldn't even be trying to access the loud speaker unless I click on speaker phone.
Anyway, I am running 5.0.2 resurrection rom, is there any build.prop edit or something I can flash to fix this? Disable the loudspeaker or something?
Anyone have any other suggestions to fix loudspeaker itself instead of trying to find away around it? I will test loudspeaker sometime soon and see if it is working itself, maybe there is just a bad connection somewhere even though I triple checked them all.
I've even pulled the 2 spring arms that make the connection up a tad to make a better connection..
OK, well my loud speaker came back to life and apps that use it aren't crashing anymore.. Can make phone calls again, etc.. Must have been a bad connection or something.. Didn't change any settings or anything of the sort.
Hello all. I got my S5 two weeks ago and I love it. But one thing bugs me a bit about it though... I have read many comments on the Internet from owners of this phone that the microphone & speaker sounds muffled while the speaker on my phone sounds crystal clear (the same as on my HTC One M7) together with the microphone... I did a test call & the person told me that they hear no difference between this phone & my HTC... Is this good, or should I be worried about a popped membrane on both parts?
P.S. This phone was bought used
You're worried there is a fault because your phone is working normally with clear audio?
Don't you think the guys who are complaining of muffled audio are the ones with the fault?

I actually thought, that the muffled audio is correct because of the waterproof membranes to protect them... But good to know that it's the other way around [emoji4]
No muffled audio on mine, there is a clarity setting you can play with in call settings, with Adapt sound, Soft Sound, Clear Sound, and Off
Open the dialer and hit the 3 dots menu > settings
Mine can be used for everything but making calls. What ROM you running that works so well?
