Problem with calling - Galaxy S II General

Hey!
Got my S2 Galaxy yesterday, and today my father called me and said that it sounded weird when he talked to me. Anyone know what's wrong? Or do i have to change something in settings?
And it is like that every time someone calls me or I call them. That they barely hear me. And I talk loud. Do i have to change something in settings?
Thanks!

This is known to be an issue with noise reduction, when you next call try selecting menu then choose noise reduction off.. See if it makes a difference!
Bear in mind tho you can't keep it off for good unfortunately.I'm hoping for the new firmware update to fix this problem

You could always try downloading the galaxy tuner and adjusting the volume through it. You must be rooted though...

I don't use any of the stock ringers anyway, so I just modded the gain of the MP3's I use for ringers before I sent them to the phone. I also use the Voodoo sound app to get the gain up a little on the headphone jack.

I guess we're just more deaf than you are. For fun I listen to death metal for long periods on high volume and shoot shotguns, high powered rifles, etc... My hearing is pretty well screwed.

Every day I work iexpose my self to 100dbs or greater for extended period of time. My personal car reaches 172dbs (173dbs with voodoo sound) (world record is 178dbs). If you haven't figured it out I do mobil electronics. I'm also no stranger to high powered fire arms.
Its not long till I'm fully deaf

I hear ya man (pun intended).... I also played in a machine shop on the weekends when I was a kid which I'm sure didn't help. I have no idea how many dbs my car puts out but I'm sure it's no where near that. Wonder if there's an app for that...
Well, Well, Well... This really is a swiss army phone. Just installed a free DB meter.

I wonder if it actually works? I'll have to run it side by side with a real mic
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
My mom had this same problem. I found a solution tho. Somehow when she connected her Bluetooth the phone rings through the front speaker instead of the speakerphone speaker so I'm assuming increasing the volume of a ringtone may kill your speaker. Anyway if you disconnect Bluetooth and restart the phone the ringtones worked flawlessly
Mind you she began having the problem after the froyo update but today she said she updater something last night now she has low volume again. Hope this helps somebody

Caller cant hear me solution (Voodoo)

called myself through my house phone and played with voodoo settings till i heard a difference. well, this worked for me:
in voodoo, scroll down till you see "Digital/Analog Conversion Quality Settings"
uncheck "Hi-fi record" (ADC 128x oversampling Maximize recordings quality)
rom being used: cynogenMod beta1
Voodoo Sound Plus 3.1.1
Upgrade to beta 2
The only setting that causes mic issues is the mic one the options are normal, balanced and loud something to that effect change it to loud and callers will hear you. The hifi record does not play a factor.
Holy double thread Batman!
shucks
the environments change the input volume and i think the hi-fi record turns on a gate. cause turning off hi-fi made a big difference to me cause people dont have hard time hearing me anymore and i dont have to touch anything. and i've always thought recording has to do with mic inputs. oh well....

I don't think so, I'm still on beta 1, but the voodoo toggle was the fix for me to get the mic to work properly, so I know they didn't fix it on Beta 1.

Well rc1 update one has been out for a litttle bit the change log says they boosted the mic

Beta 2 did not fix this issue in regards to what he's talking about, and without testing it yourself you shouldn't tell him he's wrong. I'm always told people can not hear me and I just did the same test with my home phone. With HiFi record enabled I could not be heard unless I put my mouth directly over the mic and talked very loud. With HiFi record disabled I could then be heard from a normal distance at which with it enabled I could not be heard at all from the same distance as if I were not even speaking.
Thank you for this. I'll test more later when my girl calls me and see if she can actually hear me ok or not with this disabled.

Beta 2 fixes this with the default kernel and no voodoo... most things I say are fixed are with the stock kernel...

Some of us use voodoo sound with the stock kernel through voodoo sound plus. That's where it gets confusing. I'm not saying the issue is cm9. It's definitely this setting and/or voodoo sound in general. I'm just saying this is good to know for any of us that use stock cm9 but also inject the voodoo driver via the app.

This totally works i tried it on 3 different cell phones my moms epic touch my dads zte fury and my younger brothers transform ultra i think the way it makes things higher quality is it filters out more interference ergo wind static etc etc but in doing so the volume it can record at is severly lowered.

Note voice leak

Hi
Anyone has voice leakage problem during phone calls? Voice from the other side can be heard clearly by people around me...
How to fix this?
Um, turn the earpiece volume down...?

Ermmm check its not on loudspeaker and also ask person on other end to talk softer

SO..it seems it's a problem with the Note and there's no way to really fix it (I don't mean ways to circumvent it)? Is it due to the long size of the speaker on top?
It sounds like it's due to the Note having a good volume band. If it's bugging you, turn it down. That's not really a work around is it? More of a choice, and which is a good thing I thought?

I really had to check it was not still April 1. I do not see a 'loud' speaker as a problem, as you can simply turn it down. I do not find my note to be too loud. If yoh are using a custom rom tben it might be the rom that is amplifying the sound.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
The speaker is not long at all. The grill is, but that makes little difference.
The real problem is that the phone is so damned thin! The ear-speaker happily blasts out of the back too.
What is irritating is that you still get the issue where if the grill is not well positioned against your ear you cannot hear well, even though everyone around you can
Turn!
It!
Down!
'nuff said.
No.. there is NO problem with the Note..
if people around you can hear it then would you not say that is a real obvious clue that you have the volume too loud..? turn it down...or.. get you one of these http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/7830/
problem solved.

Person on call does not hear me when I first answer the call

Every time I answer a call, the person on the other line does not hear me if I speak as soon as I answer the call. Is any one else having this? I have to call someone, wait till they pick up, say hello, hello. They catch the second hello every time. I can't help but think this is not normal.
This is not an issue of the case or bumper as I do not change the level of my voice when this happens.
I have excellent call quality. I do not have the buzz or the mute issue. I do not have any call quality issues at all.
I started another thread to discuss the issue I am having. Mods, feel free to move the responses into here and delete my other thread.

ok... I thought I was the only one having this issue. I have to say hello twice all the time. I just thought I was too quick to say hello, but it's been driving me crazy!
also, it happens regardless of the ROM I'm running. I guess I just have to get used to pausing for a few seconds when I answer the phone before saying hello... or just keep saying hello twice
I also had the same problem with my GNex on AT&T. I'm just now used to taking a breath after answering before saying anything.
I'm having this problem as well. I don't hear them neither do they hear me for about 4 seconds.

This happens to me on t-mo..happened on my GS2 as well. I noticed that if you wait until you hear the unlock sound after answering the call they can hear you.
Yes noticed in my nexus 4 after i got it, its kinda annoying, i want it fixed!
I also do have the buzzing in the phone, but its really low only hear it when theres no sound, doesnt really bother me...

As soon as u answer if u wait one second and say hello they'll hear it i noticed it too but as soon as it goes from 0:00 to 0:01 they could hear don't think it was serious enough to make a thread but hey I'm not judging

HAHA I really thought I was the only one with this problem. Do any of you guys get random hanging up? Like you know FOR SURE you have good reception and that you never touched the end call but the phone hangs the call up anyway once in awhile.
having the same problem with the call delay as well, on ATT. the Gnex didn't do this
I have the problem but it is only for a split second so if I just wait a sec before saying something it works as it should.
Ok this is odd as I have the same problem and thought it was due to my using Groove IP or Talkatone. It sounds like it may be a hardware issue or a JB issue.
This is a very concerning problem. I hope it is fixed ASAP.
looks like a sw issue ....had the same on my Samsung Spica i5700 which was fixed by the devs on samdroid
Same issues! What the heck!

Very annoying. In the end it is a phone, what on earth it can't do it right on the basic function as a phone. Hope more people raise the concern and push Google to fix that. Otherwise RMA is on the way.
Yep happens to me also, hopefully will be fixed soon but not a big issue.

some of my friends have this phone and it only happens to mine for some reason. maybe a faulty handset?
it sounds like the vibrator part inside the phone is faulty does it vibrate when phone is on ?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
the phone is perfect apart from that noise.
although i did notice if i shake it it does vibrate for no reason.
but yes i think the vibrator is faulty or something inside is loose
The camera can make that noise if it is having trouble focusing, does your camera work OK, can you tell what part of the phone the noise is coming from?
