Doesn't work for me on Xoom, but works on my Nexus One. I believe HTC put in circuitry that can detect different contact layouts.

[Q] Ringer Stalls low then gets high - Anyone have this?

So my ringer is a bit weird, when the phone rings the ringer is initially low and kind of distorted then a few seconds in it goes up to full volume. Anyone else have this or know how to fix?

Its normal. A feature, not a bug.
I like it. Means I can grab the phone before it gets loud.... think of it as a pre-ring.
Yep, mine does it too. I like it so I don't get a full volume blast right away when the phone rings, making crap my pants.

That's exactly what it is for. Just in case you have your phone to your ear already it isn't blaring. it's like a warning feature.
It's one of my favorite features on this phone. I really really like it.

Why would your phone be up to your ear if you aren't on a call?

its how samsung made it.. all of these phones are like that first 2 seconds are very low then out of no where its loud... it doesnt even seem gradually thats why it sounds weird.... but its made like that! so dont worry about it
I think all samsung mobiles have this feature !
I had 4 Samsung mobiles and all of them had that feature !
I don't know why Samsung done this but I think there is a secret about it !
Oh ok awesome, thanks for clearing that up. This is my first Samsung, I've had mainly HTC's so I wasn't sure if my phone had a bug that I need to fix or something.
The volume it came originally like that cuz I went on YouTube & watch videos on the volume & it's originally like that. It doesn't bother me. I just needed to know why.

im not the same person but i have also found i can use any headphones with my PLAY for clarification its a 2011 model r800i unbranded.
mine also shipped with 2.3.3 and had an option to chnage auto brightness and Xloud already installed
You can also get an adapter from ebay which lets you use any headphones on the xperia 2011 phones - this does not however enable you to use the microphone on these unsupported headsets.
It's just a 3.5mm headphone jack. All my headphones have worked fine.

Then you're lucky.
Since when can't you plug other headphones into the XPlay? As others have said it's just a standard 3.5mm jack. Just about any headphones will work in it.

I've tried plenty, from Sony headphones to Samsung earbuds to HP wrap-around earphones and generic no-name earbuds and they have all worked. Every single one of them.
Headsets on the other hand might be a different story, as I haven't tried headsets so I wouldn't know. But I don't see why headphones wouldn't work.
I've tried quite a few in HMV, they all worked.

Have a couple pairs of MEE headsets and the adapter works. Never used it for mic purposes, though. Just use them as cheap but decent pair of headphones.
Is this a joke or are people this stupid? First off, this doesn't apply to any r800x, THEY CAME WITH ADAPTERS. Second, Sony will GIVE YOU ONE, all u do is ask. so instead of doing this moronic trick, use your head.
Explain
Can anyone explain why and how this works? dont want to break good headphones if iam not guaranteed it will work?

[Q] Noise cancellation sounds terrible

Just after getting my G2 i installed CyanogenMod 10.2 Milestone on it. I started doing some tests to see if CM could be my daily driver, and nothing really seemed to be a deal breaker, except, when i try to record videos (or I'm guessing any other sound recorder) the sound it not really that great. I went back to the stock LG software, and was hoping i only had to stay there until CM fixed the noise cancellation issue. But what do i find, the noise cancellation problem is still there.
I have been looking around here on the XDA forums, (This is my first post btw) and I came across this (what seemed like) amazing mod. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471900 But it might just be me being a droid-noob (Have only had android for 2 weeks now), but i cant figure out how to get this to work, it even bumps up the quality of pictures and videos including other cool tweaks. I have tried installing the .zip file via CWM, but that gave me nothing, also tried installing the cameraapp.apk the thread provided, but it just refused to install.
So please, if any droid-guru can help me make my microphone sound better, (both in the stock software and in CM) i would appreciate it!
Are you using some cover on the G2 ? If so, try removing it as it might cause disturbance to the reference microphone.

I do not have a cover or case, and I know the noise cancellation is software related. My phone is the D802, the one without a rear-facing microphone, maby that can have something to do with it?
I have the same problem witm my lg g2.After I record a video or use voice recorder the sound freezing and the quality is very poor.I thought that I have only my this problem...My phone is not rooted and I have it from yesterday morning.Today I sow this problem.I made a factory reset and the problem is not solved.Is something that I can do with this issue?

I have thought about that, but I've heard a few other people have this problem as well, and im 99% sure it is software related. Though to every rule there is an exception..
Just some more info. Here is a video i recorded going home from work, and as you can hear the sounds are very "Watery" or "Distorted" as many describe it. (The bad video quality is a combination of my using CM10.2, only recording in 720P and YouTubes bitrate being bad as always)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgdtWzoQkOU&feature=youtu.be
And no, I did NOT cover up any of the microphones, im 100% sure about that.

Video uses the rear mic for audio zoom. Not even sure if it cancels as well like the top. Verizons model ONLY has a top. I have no distortion or watery sound when using stock recorder or on video. I however do get dead silence between some sounds, very good cancellation, sometimes a bit too much. Voice Privacy in dailer has NOTHING to do with voice cancellation. It is an algorithm used to encrypt voice communications and is worthless being hacked long ago. VS980

I have the d802, and that does not have rear mounted microphone. So maybe it is just some bad optimization. There has got to be a way to disable the noise cancelling microphone, or use it as a secondary mic.
Sent from my LG-D802 using Tapatalk
Okay..
So basically every rom out there for the G2 has terrible sound when it comes to the microphone, but there is a fix, i'm sure!
A few weeks back i downloaded the AOSPA 4 rom for the G2 and installed it, and guess what, it removed the noise cancellation!
But after the rom was buggy here and there, I decided to live with the bad sound on CM 10.2.
Now a few weeks has gone by, and I wanted to try out the updated AOSPA 4 rom, but what is diz, the sound is terrible!?
So it seems like the whoever is in charge of the AOSPA rom for the G2 has brought back the horrible sound.
Now is there a way to get the microphone profiles from one rom over to another? I have the old AOSPA 4 rom, with the working sound on my computer, and I want to take the microphone profile, and save it, so that i can manually add it to any other rom i download in the future, because I know that roms like CM probably wont update the mic profile for one specific phone.
Hey there, I just got myself LG G2 D802 and I find the noise cancellation in videos to be extremely annoying. Do you guys know if there is a fix to it yet? Something to disable it would be awesome.

Might be a HW fault or y'all are being too sensitive videos recorded with my D802 have great sound.

Can you tether it to a phone so you can use the phone's internet connection? This is something most smartwatches seem to be lacking, even though it should be included if the manufacturer doesn't mess with the software (i.e. removing that option intentionally)

I meant that it is lacking phone pair connectivity. Such as ; if you get a text the phone cannot notify you, or if you have a call coming in the watch will not notify you... this software doesn't exist yet. I have tried numerous apps on play store but no luck as of yet.

It's a 2 mega pixel camera... the quality isn't too bad overall... video quality is actually Very Good... i sent a video from the watch to my galaxy note 2 and the resolution was very surprising..... it was good. not too much distortion - The only thing is that the frame rate is less so you will noticing a little skipping vs a high quality galaxy note or s4 camera would take.. this is expected though.

[Q] Microphone Issues Like Nexus 5/Not working

Issue: LG G2 Microphone sounding muffled and like I'm meters away from it just like the recent issues on the Nexus 5.
Solutions: Speaker phone, headset w/mic and Bluetooth headset.
Tried but unsuccessful solutions: Change build.prop string for noise cancellation microphone to false. Gone to 4.2.2, 4.4.1, 4.4.2. Take Q-Tip and cleaned 3.5mm jack to see if dust or anything else was stuck. Left off for extended periods of time. Let sit in rice just in case of any moisture or condensation shorting mic.
Summary: Mic is muffled and have tried software solutions. I think it has to do with the noise cancellation mic having some kind of short or error. Speaker phone works like a charm but I don't want everyone hearing my conversations. I'm continually trying for a solution. Right now I'm going to be returning to full stock and seeing if that can help at all. I'd rather have a working phone than root honestly.... I've searched for days for solutions here and in the Nexus 5 forum because I understand that the LG G2 and Nexus 5 are a lot alike.
TLDR: Mic won't work and is muffled. Tried a lot of software fixes for G2 and Nexus 5. Any ideas guys?
Edit: Returned to stock updated to latest, love the new network logo too. Still now fix.
Wasn't the problem on nexus because there was some plastic stuck in the way?

I have the same issue and it's driving me crazy. I'm on Tmobile and have the D801 variant. I notice it's random like sometimes it will work fine and the other user can hear me loud. Other times they can barely hear me and I sound really quiet or far away and muffled. I am also told that there is some slight static sound when I'm talking as well.
Similarly I found out when on speakerphone everything becomes loud and clear to them. I'd love to find out what the cause of this is. Is this hardware or software related? Is this on all G2s or just the Tmobile version? Is my phone defective?
I'm on Sprint LS980. I've tried messing with audio settings but no success. I was thinking what if there was a way to make the phone think your on speaker but use the handset speaker instead of the actual speakers. I will keep trying and see if there isn't something. This is driving me mad.

This is my build prop audio settings. I've changed handset mic string from digital to analog and I just changed voicecall mic to 1 from to 0.
EDIT: Well that didn't change anything I modified the value between 0-2 and that didn't change a darn thing. If I can't get a solution soon I'm opening this bad boy up.
EDIT: I opened up my phone and disconnected some of the basic paneling on the bottom a d looked for any sort of damage but found none. I tried blowing and removing any dust or anything in that way but still no success.
BTW this phone is just as pretty on the inside as it is the outside.

Haha nicely done. How did you go ahead and open up the phone??
Well if there is no damage, then is it safe to say that this is a software issue? Does this happen to you all the time, or occasionally like mine?
Mine is constant. I removed the sim card slot (phone off of course) by poking the hole with one of my girlfriends earrings. Trust me this gets ghettoer. Then I used my phone charger adapter and stuck it ever so slightly in the open hole just enough to where I was only touching the case and not the hardware and turned it clockwise and then took my capital one credit card and put it in the now opened slit. Then followed along the outer side of my phone. The corners are tight don't be a hero and pull it off. Go all the way around with whatever you wanna use. There is a specific tool for it but I'm impatient.
Edit: Changed String

Thanks for the reply man. I've done multiple recordings and have no idea what the heck is going on. I've gone to every ROM avaliable to see if there were any ones that worked but none did so I have no clue. I'm probably just gonna diagnose it as hardware.
Edit: Well good news and bad news. Bad news is I've stabbed holes in the cover to my microphone. Good news is people can hear me a little better. Progress. Heck yeah.

So you're saying it was your case/cover that might have been the problem? You tried taking it off and making calls?
Hard for me to diagnose the problem on my end because like I said it's on an off for me. So not sure if any changes I make work, until it happens again. I'm going to try recording myself next time it happens as well.

I'm not going to say that that's a solution, like I said people can hear me a little better but it did make a difference. After work or later tonight I'm going to post audio files of what I sound like with the issue.

What most of the times happen to me is that the other caller hears me like if I was holding the phone far from my mouth, and other times they hear themselves like echo.
I can't reproduce the problem. It's totally random apparently. Maybe RAM memory related?

Maybe but not likely.
I doubt its software for me at first that seemed like the problem but I've COMPLETELY gone back to stock several times and there is still the issue. I'm going to take off my back tomorrow and do a thorough cleaning.
Edit
Sprint recently released their new network Spark to the LS980. And so I decided to go ahead and upgrade and up on doing so I found a custom ROM

No in order to have the latest update and still be able to use a custom recovery there's quite a tricky process you have to downgrade the aboot in order to be able to have a custom recovery. Doing this solved my microphone issue. I do not know why but I'm not complaining.
Glad to hear that solved your issue! Maybe it was a network issue all along? I think I figured out my issue to.
Embarrassed to say, but turns out it was more a user error. I realized when I had issues it was when I was lounging around. Turns out depending on what I was doing and how I was holding the phone it would kind of cover the secondary mic on the top of the phone which was causing the issue. Can't say I've had this issue on previous phones, but seems to affect this one.

All that matters is people can hear us now.
