[Q] (help) Calls choppy and tinny sounding

I have a Defy rooted and CM7, after doing this i wasn't getting 3g so i went into the Defy baseband switcher, switched to what appeared to be (closest) to what looked similar to my old setup, now i do get a "H" speed on my connection (assume this is 3g) but now all my calls sound tinny (almost electronic) and choppy. i really dont want to switch back to stock rom. Any tips would help. Have tried all of the US Tmobile bands, all do the same.

H is HSDPA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access), that's just your data connection, it shouldn't affect your call quality. Phone signal or the earpiece itself are the only potential problems I can think of. Defy do have a notorious problem with broken ear pieces, is the sound still tinny when you click Speaker during a call?

[Q] When WiFi is on, voice signal almost non-existant

Hello.
So my T-Mobile Note 3 is acting up. The problem is, when WiFi is connected, the cell signal indicator drops to zero, or almost zero. It is more noticeable when I am at home. Not as much as the office. And the impact is, that calls do not come through, and when they do, they sound like a horrible T-Pain autotune song. To make a call, I typically have to disable WiFi, wait for about a minute for better signal. Signal always gets better when WiFi is disabled.
I am on a stock T-Mobile ROM, rooted. WiFi calling enabled but not active.
Any suggestions?

Wi-Fi Call Quality

I have Sprint Wi-Fi calling on my Galaxy S4 Spark. The voice quality is unuseable.
I was glad to get the OTA download because I have had no bars in my house for three weeks. I used to get 2-3 bars.
Wi-Fi calling would be a viable solution if it worked. But the voice is so broken all I can do is call back from a land line.
It's not my network. I have 30 MBs and Skype does video calls perfectly.
My service is in Cedar Park, TX (North of Austin).
Does anybody else have Wi-Fi calling? How is the voice quality? :crying: :crying:

I had similar issues with the WiFI Calling update. Check your router and turn off IPV6 worked for me.

I'm afraid that won't help. My router is pre IPV6.
It's updateable, but I never had a reason to.

I just rebooted my cable converter. It's much better.

vs980 peoples: What do you think about volte and video calling on Verizon?

I'm on xdabbeb's ROM so I can try it out and so far I'm pretty impressed with Verizon's volte, it sounds like a Skype call. Also half the calls I make, I hear a static in the background whenever theyres noise. Also can anyone confirm if normal calls and SMS go through LTE or it falls back to 1x for that. I cannot figure out a way to force my phone on LTE only

Distorted chipmunk voice when calling (SOLVED)

I have this issue that when I receive a call, all I hear from the other side is like a chirping distorted noise. This only occurs with the stock dialer app. Also, it's happened in differing custom ROMs (AICP 17.1, and now CrDroid). Apparently the only quick fix is to disable wifi calling and VOLTE, which I did and it did help. Is there a way for me to get rid of the chirping noises while keeping VOLTE and wifi calling enabled? Any insight is greatly appreciated.
Edit: so what did work for me was switching the network type to LTE/WCDMA/GSM under mobile network settings. Make sure to check your device and the compatible network bands to set this accordingly. Leaving this here in case other people with other devices have such a similar issue.
