Suddenly very low in call volume on every Nand androids issue - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hi, guys
Have big issue with incall volume, on every nand androids which i flashed in last 2 day have almost non possibe to hear other person.
When putting call on speaker its normal volume and can here everything.
Problem started after few days while using miui hd android.
Searched this section of forum and didnt find any working solution.
Tried this:
Task29 provided by doloop
Reinstalling DFT_LEO_MAGLDR113_DAF
Reinstalling Cwm 3.x.x AND 5.0.2.7 Recovery
Tried different Flash.cfg partition size
Tried around 10 diffferent nand roms
But allways same results, very low incall sound, normall speaker sound.
Is this maybe hardware failure?
Doesn maybe changing to some Radio would fix issue even i use current radio till now without any issue for almost 2 years.
Radio rom which use is: Radio Leo 2.15.50.14
Any advice is wellcome, ty in advance.

I don't see what it can be other than hardware failure, but if you try Volume+ you can increase the volume of your mic/headset by a lot (although you will have to trade off some sound quality at the higher ranges). Is it just the in-call volume or the volume when playing music aloud as well? Might help deduce whether it's a hardware or software fault. My dad's old iPhone 2G (I've been pestering him to get an upgrade for ages) has an issue where it detects something plugged into the headphone jack even when it's not there. Maybe your phone is doing a similar thing?

Shortly:
Calls which are on speakerphone works and its clear and loud
Notification, ringtones working clear and loud
Music is playing and sound loud and normal.
Calls on headset sound loud and normal
In call volume is very low(when call isnt putted on speakerphone), hard to hear person even when volume is up fully.

Well in that case it isn't hardware failure and I honestly don't know why it would happen so randomly. Try messing with the call settings in the settings menu and see what you can change that might solve your issue. For example, try turning off the dial tones (or whatever they're called) and haptic feedback etc., it's helped others in the past judging by what I could find.

fix permissions in cwm should work. u can find it under advanced

i dont think its hardware related from what you say.maybe you are unlucky and have problems with the specific rom.
if you cant adjust it from the settings on the phone, there are some apps on the market that let you adjust all the sound related features (volume control+,audio manager and many more).
then you can try reflashing your rom (clean install preferred after you do a backup)
if that fails maybe theres dust or garbage in the cracks and you should try cleaning your phone from the inside(but thats VERY risky if you dont know how to open the phone properly..)
and if everything fails then try a new rom maybe?????

Ty guys for helps and advice .Seems after a while that found source of issues, was related to Ext partition in combination with androids which use them. My card works suspicious, ill need to buy new one, this time ill stick with Sandisk type, current is Toshiba's card micro hc version which from start didn't gave me some good reliability on hd2.

HELP NEEDED!!! No Sound whatsoever

Hello,
i seriously need help.
Until this morning, my X1 worked. Over the last few days I was playing around a bit with various TF3D options, etc. I should note that I did not touch the ROM.
Then suddenly my phone gave no sound anymore.
No audible resonse to a stilus click on the screen.
No sound from FM radio.
No sound from phone (neither ring nor can I hear the caller).
(Vibra alarm works when activated though)
When switching to speakerphone I hear a very soft static crackle when doing the switch. Just as if the speaker is turned on. But then - no sound at all.
No microphone function on phone (caller cannot hear me).
No sound via headphones on phone.
No sound via headphones on MP3 playback.
Everything else appart from sound works. Even the phone can make a connection when calling - you just hear nothing.
I tried a soft reset. Nothing - still no sound.
Then I tried a hard reset:
Obviously the hardware of my speaker is ok. Because when I make a hard reset, there is the "pling" sound to inform me, that I should calibrate my screen.
Then there is another "pling" when the message appear, asking if I want to get the automatic provider settings updated.
But afterwards - no sound at all in the whole phone.
Then I went to update the ROM, thinking I might have (no idea how, but you never know) done something to audio drivers. I replaced my German T-Mobile ROM with the prepared German ROM without branding from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070
But still - same result as above.
Anyone got any idea?
Really nobody having any helpful comment?
did you try to change the radio??
I flashed a whole new ROM - same problem persists.
Besides: It´s not a Radio problem because system sounds and MP3 playback don't have any sound either.
Stating the obvious
Sorry to state the obvious but it sounds like the connection or the speaker module has gone. Have you recently tried the head phones on the X1? please see below link for a possible reason.

Hello Creamy-Goodness,
thanks for you input.
If there was somewhere a hardware switch for sound output to speaker or headphones (which I doubt) that is stuck, it would not explain why I have neither sound in speaker NOR headphones. (One would assume that depending on the position of the switch at least one of the two should work.)
Apart from that I only tried the headphones to troubleshoot the problem after I found out there was no sound.
Nevertheless interesting, that this happens to other devices.
Speaker module cannot have gone either. There is an audible system sound from speaker right after hard reset to inform me that I need to calibrate the screen - but no sound anymore afterwards.
I will try to have the device swapped next week.
reg. sound issue
I'm suffering from the same problem here.
it only freggin vibrates.

Usually there is a simple fix which involves replacing a DLL, but not in this case of course - unless that ROM includes the bad DLL. I seem to remember it was a problem which occured after installing TF3D, but I couldn't find anything when searching just now.
It might be worth you checking the ear-speaker sound (make a phone call), as there is always the possibility that sound is being re-directed or intercepted (by something like Troca2). Check what programs and services are running.
Tests should be done with a known-to-work-fine-ROM of course.
Okay, I finally got the original ROM to flash the X1 back.
And strangely - when after one week of not using it I turned it on again to flash the phone, I got my sound back.
I have absolutely no idea what happened and why, but I am glad that I do not have to send it back.
@k_ash82
What I did is:
Turned my X1 off (not just stand-by), really off.
Waited one week.
Switched it on again.
I had my sound back.
No idea why, but maybe that works for you as well?
Just try it and please post your experience.
It would be very kind of you to share the german t-mobile stock rom with the community . Perhaps it could be added to "Xperia ROM and Guides" Thread, too.
I have no sound sometimes with this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460190.
After switch off and turn on the phone again the sound is back.
Karsten
i have original sony rom (no branding) and also the same problems
no sound after a while (sometimes when phone goes in standby, sometimes just without a reason)
cannot play any sound in no application (media player,core player,etc) also the phone ringing or sms sound is off.
but the most annoying thing is, i can make a call, the call goes through, but I can hear nothing from the called person.
sometimes it works when i switch of the phone and restart, but sometimes I have to do 4 or 5 restarts.
the phone is now 1 week old, an I haven't installed Touch3D or anything like that, because I made hardreset and left the original configuration on factory settings, just to make sure, that it's no software error.
anyone got a solve for this problem actually?
if I ask google, there are many people with this problem, but no solve found till now
i have an issue with the speaker too but not exactly the same as the one described above.
my speaker still plays sound but it is about 10% of the original volume when it is already set to loudest (you have to put your ear right next to the speaker to hear the sound)
after i re-flashed the rom, it worked normally for about half a day until the problem returned
can anyone please help??
i keep missing my calls ><
thanks
this is a well known issue on some X1 phones ! you cant fix this with any software-update because it is hardware related. some x1 phones have it like every 2 weeks, others 3-4 times a day. most of the time you can just reset your phone but this is not a solution.
you have to send it back to SE in exchange for a new one.
i called my provider (o2) and they delivered a new x1 _on the next day_ in exchange (they have a 48 hrs delivery/pickup/return service).
the new phone works just fine !

HELP: Cannot Fix Mic Volume (Rogers Magic)

I have a Rogers Magic, and I cannot for the life of me fix my microphone volume. Even when I restore a nandroid backup of the stock ROM, I still sound quiet and muffled. Is there a certain radio I should have flashed? I believe I am using the stock radio. I've also tried pretty much every custom ROM that will work on the Rogers Magic, and they all sound the same. I'm really stumped here.
Could it be a physical problem with the mic? Where exactly is it located anyway? Any help at all would be appreciated!
Try making a phone call, enabling speaker phone, disabling speaker phone then hang up the call. After that do a test call to see if that fixed the mic issue. Please let us know the results.
Thanks for the reply, but that didn't help at all. Still quiet and muffled.
i have the same problem and it is driving me insane!

Now I put an original ROM but still the same problem,
the microphone is activated only when I activate the loudspeakers during the call, and also for recording a sound it is sooooo low, you hear nothing
this is the first time I meet a problem with the microphone of my mobile

suddenly no sound?!?

hi there
i have a Hermes, exactly the T-Mobile version..
anyway it worked fine till one day i got no sound at all, no mp3 no notifications, nothing....
except the boot up sound... checked the forums, seems it's a common problem, and i figured that the rear speaker works (since the boot up sound comes from it), the speaker cable is connected so i have no clue... if it would be broken, than the boot-up sound wouldn't come at all from the rear speaker, riight?
changed like 5-6 ROMs so far, from 6 to 6.5, no changes with sound...
any clue guys what to do?
I'd need to solve this asap...
thx for any solution
can please someone at least confirm me if my rear speaker is dead or not?
cos i hear the boot up sound from it but no other sounds...
please ,its urgent, thx
Well, the first thing that i would consider doing is backup my important data and do a hard reset....why don't you try that too....?
okay
got from ebay a new speaker... changed it and it doesnt work either...
hard reset and changing the ROM (6-7 of them) didn't help...
at beginning the sound could be heard at boot only while playing music, ringing and that stuff was mute... after 2 days the sound at boot disappeared too...
so, does anyone have a solution? when i plug the microUSB to 3.5mm adapter i can hear the sound on my earphones, but there is no sound when played normally on the ppc itself...
can anyone help me to solve this? where could be the problem?
thanks
okay...
going mad really... now i flashed an original AT&T US rom (although i have a tmobile EU) and guess what.... i hear the sound back again, but only at boot up... other sounds in winmo (ring, mp3, music, programs) are dead... can't hear anything although the volume is set at max...
so... i assume this can't be a hardware issue..
before this ATT i changed like 6 more different roms and all with same problems... now i have sound only at bootup... does anyone know where is the problem and a possible solution?
thanks
cmon guys... don't tell me no one has no idea what to do.....
i've been flashing and reflashing the roms but so far i can get only the boot up sound... any other sound is not available.. why? how to repair it?
thx
it's funny to see you can ask sometimes questions no one knows to answer
you've tried it by using the head set...?
whether the results were the same as well (no sound)..?
when using a headset (extUSB) there is sound and everything is normal...

you'd better check the speakers on your device , may be the connecting cable is damaged and if necessary you replace ....

Hi all... new here
I also have the same problem on my AT&T 8525. The Telephone speaker works but the phone doesn't ring or give audio notifications any longer. I've done a hard reboot 3 times. Bluetooth audio works fine. But no speakerphone. If anyone has a solution we'd appreciate it!
Thanks!!!

Fix for low microphone volume

So, it seems I have finally found out how to adjust the microphone volume on the phone.
I have posted the instructions on my blog. If you try the solution it please respond if it works or not.
This might be veey interesting. I changed 88 to 100 but will only be able to talk to someone tomorrow.
From personal experience both sgs ans sgs2 have low treble input sent to peer. Ots annoying.
Posted from Galaxy S II
tried, we will see...
Interesting, there's an option for speaker receive volume too...
I tried it but it didn't work on audio recording (Hi-Q MP3 Recorder).
There is some way to adjust mic volume of voice recording?, My old SGS recordings were a lot louder than on my new SGSII.
Great thank you so much for the post. It helped me out.

MY SGS2 DOES NOT HAVE THIS VOLUME ISSUE! PEOPLE HEAR ME VERY WELL, SOMETIMES THEY ACTUALLY LOWER THE VOLUME IT IS SO LOUD!!!
Seriously, how much better does it get? I am not in a noise free environment at the moment, how big of a gain does this produce? Does this fix work with the genuine wired headphones?
i thought this fix was temporary only, after a phone reboot the fix resets to default ?

I must admit...in all the smartphone that i have ever used.....This is the only phone that i have never rebooted except when flashing roms/kernels etc...
I never reboot! I did today, because I wanted to calibrate the battery for the first time and I let it die. So I let it die after 24 hours of use, and then when it turned on it rebooted
I love my phone

It works but sadly as others have already mentioned, after a reboot, you have to re enter the settings, which is the only draw back, and am one of those who reboots the phone on a daily. Is there any way of making this permanent even following a reboot?. I can imagine its probably difficult, but thought I'd ask anywhere. Thanks op.
I'm actually looking for a way to lower the input gain, as my voice comes out distorted on the other side. Any clues? Besides the obvious "Turn 88 into something lower, I tried 70 and didn't work"
I don't know how the values can be saved so that they survive a restart. Personally I only restart my phone when it runs out of battery, or if I've done flashing that requries a reboot. If I need to disconnect from the real world airplane mode is used.
So, has anyone had any luck using this method? Seems to work for me.

That's quite the opposite problem Other than what you tried I have no idea. Sounds like a faulty device?

Actually, I tried 20 yesterday, and it did solve my problem!
Now sound is crisp and undistorted!
The question is,
1. How to make it stick reboot.
2. What do the rest of the volumes do? Vol0_1 0_2 0_3 etc, you suggested to edit number 5. Why specifically that one?
1. Still a mystery
2. My guess is that there are certain levels of output, and that all of them should be adjusted according to the other to have a linear line. The fact that I wrote that only 5 should be edited was simply because that worked for me.
First, great thanks hpe !!
I got my phone 2 days ago and got same problem.
ppl could not hear me well.
I tried your solution, hope it will help (tried 1-2 calls and seems ok).
I have noticed also that when you talk you should be
stable with your hand and your face , I mean,
it should be with fix distance between the mouth and phone, not important the distance but it should be stable during the call, if not the AGC comes up and down and the other side can't hear you well...
About save setting,
Maybe there is ini file or something (rooted phone) that can be changed to keep value after reboot, I have noticed in the 2 days I have the phone that I had to reboot phone after install application to get it works well.
I've follow the hpe solution but i still have volume problem
My specific problem is:
On Normal Mic call > very low volume... on my SGS2 with android 2.3.3
But with Speaker call > clear (no problem)
Very strange!! I can't be able to solve this problem.
I'd like to precise that with other voip app like bria or "csip simple" i have no problem, mic volume is perfect..

Speaker call uses different mic settings (since you've a higher distance between your mouth and the mic while using speaker), so it might just the "normal mic call" volume setting which fails.
I have understand and many thanks for your reply but it's strange that those settings works perfectly with the other voip applications..

[Q] Mic volume too soft in Dorimanx ROMs

I googled and searched the forum, most saying the in-call volume is too loud and so forth.
But I am getting the other end, where the other side can't hear me much unless my lips are literally next to the microphone or shout it out loud.
Done many tests and confirmed that my previous TYTUNG ROM was better, but then it freezes my phone with incoming calls sometimes... I have had a few updates through Dorimanx and quite happy except this low mic volume issue.
Does anyone have a clue on this? I would like to seek for solutions better flashing out another ROM like crazy. Thanks!

Do you have speaker phone enabled ? if not , thats your problem . when using the earpiece for a call the microphone levels are set as if you are holding the device right up to your ear and the microphone is right next to your mouth . as a normal phone would work . try enabling speaker phone and see if that does anything .
If not you could try this http://code.google.com/p/custom-android-sciphone-n19/wiki/MicGain are phones (well mine at least) doesnt have this file but at the same time if you add this file and reboot it may use it . just be sure to backup everything using recovery backup . just in case .
