Mic and speaker hardware - Galaxy Tab General

where would you guys think this can be found?
aditional device which is attached to the tab and can turn your tab to a normal phone. external speaker cum mic attached to tab so you can place the speaker to your ears and speak through the mic.

ehm... who wants to put the tab to hald like a phone? Me defenetly not otherwise I could even talk with a brick ;-)
If you want to do so just turn the speaker on min level and turn the device so you will hear the speaker and your mouth is at the mic.

Personally, I'd use the headset that came with the Tab, as it does exactly what you describe!

If you want a normal phone to use with the tab, is a simple mod to rewire the headphone that come with the phone to a normal headset, very vintage

I've used the supplied earbuds + inline microphone for both phone calls and Skype conference calls. The quality is very good.

No sound from speaker while calling

Hi ppl! Let's see if I can express my problem!
My wizard is having this problem:
The inside speaker doesn't work during a call, only loud speaker(hands free) works, or by handset or bluetooh speaker! Does any one have this kind of problem?
I've send this one to warranty but, i've got a stupid respond from HTC:
"....Dear Sr. You have used an illegal software that damage you HTC motherboad...". Uaaauuu I've never used any 3rd software on this one. after received this answer Yesterday I made the first update to this phone (install the XDA Mobile 6 Release 3) but the problem still there.
Does any one have some ideas?
Now a stupid question ? how many speakers does wizard have ? 2 ?
Thanks for your time.

A while ago i had a similar problem where the phone thought my wired headset was plugged in and would not send the sound to the speakers... Only the headset, so i put some music on and plugged the headset in and out pretty fast until the sound came out the speakers in the phone. I think it had something to do with the switch inside the jack port that controls where the sound goes. Anyway that fixed mine but im not sure whats happening with yours.
The wizard has 3 speakers
2 Stereo speakers, one on each side
1 Speaker for calling in between the flashing lights

Thats very true, if headset is used often or used much of the time,then the clips inside the jack port get over stretched and won't come back to it's original place after the input jack of headsets is plugged out,thus,not allowing to pass through the voice to the speakers.
Hi again! thanks for your replay!
Yes it was true about the mini jack! A good cleaning have solve 50% of the case!
The sound now cames out from the 2 stereo speakers ! But not from the speaker for calling!
I'm start to suspects from the speaker! Is it hard to dismount the wizard ???

Rui

[Q] Samsung Focus, Terrible Built-in Mic? Or is there a way to activate?

With my iPhone or Blackberry, I can plug in earphones (without a mic) and talk directly to the phone and the other party can hear loud and clear. This way I can talk hands free with any earphone. However, with the focus I am unable to do this. I plug in earphones and I can hear everything okay, but talking to the phone is completely useless. No one else can hear what I am saying. Do I need to activate the built-in mic? Or is the mic on the phone just really terrible? Do I need to have an earpiece with a mic for this to work? If so, I feel that this is a huge negative..

it depends on the minijack that you are using, some will contact the mic ring and then the phone will think your headset has a mic and thus will disable the phone's mic.
the aux cable i use for my car is short (or is missing the ring) and i can listen to calls through my car speakers and just talk out loud and the phone hears it. i have yet to have anyone complain that they can't hear me.
so, maybe try another headphone cable and see if that helps.
some phones have this function built-in, if not you cannot use it.

What is the best mic fix for this tablet?

I'm new to this tablet, only had it a week and relized people cant hear me when i Skype with them. So before i purchase a head phone set with a mic on it i wanted to ask here to find out what is the best solution ??
I use a stereo headphone (make Wesc - more or less 50 €) with a little microphone which is located on the cable (close to the headphone). The sound is crystal clear.
I didn't find any other solution for using voip (skype, google) with this tablet.
I use it in three ways.
1- like castafiore do.
2- using only a headphone, no mic. (use the internal mic)
3- using speakers conect to heatphone plug. (use the internal mic)
I think that the "plug" disconect something internal in reference with the "cancel noise system."
Please excuse my bad english.

So are you saying that all I need is head phones no mic?
Yes.
If you want better results, you can install: "volume control"
market.android.com/details?id=com.revsodev.volumecontrol&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5yZXZzb2Rldi52b2x1bWVjb250cm9sIl0.
and high the "in-call volume".
Try skype test.
I talk with my son every night and he hear me wery well.
Unlike tabasco22 even though the noise is reduced when there is something plugged into the headphone jack, the internal mic is not usable for skype.
it seems that there are many headphone/mic sets that work, though i have tried 2 iphone sets that do not .

I use SONY headphones ,speakers.
using a $1.50 headset with mic i got from ebay. works great. actually it works way better then it should for that price.
yo all have been thanked
I was gonna just drill a bigger hole in mine lol I guess I could be more logical ill try volume control + see if it helps any

Making a hole?
There is another solution: take off the back cover of the tablet. If you do a test with the two microphones totally uncovered (as I've done myself), you will notice that there is NO improvement at all.
Evidently, the problem doesn't come from there...

Anybody tried remove second mic? I mean sound canceling mic. Or maybe just cover it with tape.
I think it's a software problem, between the level of the microphone and cancel noise system level
This problem disappears when you insert any kind of plug into the speaker output., which cancels the "noise canceling system".
deepdelete, you phisicaly disconect the "sound cancelling mic" when you insert a plug.
I think sensitivity of sound canceling mic must be lower, or it must be placed somewhere else.
Sure there is also possibility to correct things with software mod.

Yes, I did try that as well. But it doesn't make any difference neither.
I think you could be right, deepdelete. The second microphone on the a500 faces the back of the tablet (opposit the user).
But the 2 microphones are so closed to each other that the desired effect (as explained on the link you give), the "noise-cancelling", doesn't work properly. It's just a guess but it sounds logical (to me, anyway ).
Surprised nobody mentioned, removing the tab from the cover if you use one.
Found this out the hard way. Tab's cover, actually covered the mic! And, if I held it in my hands, it actually picked up the residual sound my fingers made when holding it. Resulted in a "garbled" sound on the other end.
I found with skype, the best thing, was to remove it from the cover, and place it on the covers "stand".
Where is the microphone located? I can't even use the voice search function with mine.
STUPID MIC locations... AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN
There are two mics..
ONE is dead center in the grove between the glass and case at the top of screen. you will see a tiny slot..
the second one.. on the right of the sd card door you will see a tiny hole.. Its right under there.. This one is for background noise canceling. Like from the a500s own speaker.. and does not work well.. The mic works ok with yahoo messenger.. if YOU HAVE NO BACKGROUND NOISE AROUND or you cover that back mic..on not well BUT BETTER THEN IT DOES WITH GTALK OR skype ..
it just sucks is all there is to it.. I tried replacing the mic with a high end known to work well mic . NO LUCK So its either a hardware chip.. or software issue.. Do not think this will ever be fixed .. USE HEADPHONES

[Q] Voice Call Receiver Mode???

'''Voice Call Receiver
The GALAXY Tab 7.7 calling function has been upgraded to let you make and receive voice calls privately by using .Receiver Mode. in public places. You no longer need a headset or Bluetooth for voice calls."""
I just read this...
I dont plan to use a bluetooth or earphones...
Does any-1 know how or where to access this function??
Receiver mode..... Iknow it's gonna look funny holding this big sucker up.. But oh well... I do it with my GNote and did it with my GTab 7.. P1000 and I will do it with this 6800 too....
What have folks found out about "Receiver Mode"???
Thanks
I don't think you need to do anything specific to access "Receiver Mode", just don't have a wired or bluetooth headset connected to the tab. When you make a phone call, place the tab to your ear, just like a normal phone. That's "Receiver Mode".
If you want hands-free, hit the speaker button on the dialer once you are calling.
one thing I just found out...
When using it as a phone... regular mode.. no bluetooth.. no speakerphone..
Hold the tab to your head just like a regular phone..
ear-speaker at the top and the mic at the bottom..
NOW..if using SPEAKERPHONE...
Hold it up-sidedown...
The bottom speakers at the top and the top mic will now be at the bottom..
YES.. these (6800's) Do have 2 mics.. 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom....
So when using speakerphone.. hold it up-sidedown... use the top mic..
it seems to switch mics on it's own depending...
good luck

Isn't the mic on the "top" side (close to the phone receiver) a secondary noise-cancelling mic?
I don't know... possibly...
I did.field testing using my homes speaker phone and doing tapping and speaking in both mics in both receiver and speakerphone modes.
.
You may be right... but I left a lot of.voice.mails.that never got heard cause I spoke into the wrong Mic. I don't know.. now I do...
I use the speakerphone alot...
Hard of hearing, I reckon

[URGENT! ] Headset and speaker at the same time, possible ?

Hi, I had a problem with my headset, I saw on internet that if I put an aluminum ball in TRS connector of the phone (the hole), my headset will work. My headset are now fixed
But now there is no speaker anymore, (i guess that my phone now think that there is a headset in it), so I will not know when someone will call me, and I need the alarm the morning to wake up for school(most important) ! :/
So I'd like to know if there is an app or something like that which could enable speaker and headset at the same, to get the speaker back.
Thanks you it's very important !
Switching between speakers and headphone is actually done physically inside the jack. AFAIK, there's no way to enable both using a software.
