[Q] In call volume problems CM11 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed the CM11 nightly (cm-11-20131210-NIGHTLY on Verizon), and I'm having in-call volume problems. It's stuck at a really load level. Most people say they hear an echo when talking to me. Anyone else having this issue? Anyone have workarounds?
Pretty solid kit kat ROM minus this issue... Pretty irritating.

I'd like to know too

I'm with you on this one, I would love a work around. I am finding a number of good kit kat roms (most CM11 based) and they all have that issue which is a deal breaker for me.

Speaker volume too low

I'm praying for someone who can solve my problem.
I LOVE my n1 but I dont hear it when Im outside home.
I surfed tens of forums searching for the solution and there is no dsp manager or lvh that has been able to solve the problem.
can someone help please?
p.s. i heard that maybe cyanogenmodded rom on gingerbr could solve the problem but i heard also that it uses dsp manager which wasnt working on my n1
Are you using a custom rom?
Most custom roms have an audio boost over stock. And maybe that DSP Manager would only work if the ROM supported it, so that could be why nothing has worked sof ar if you are on stock.
I think you're looking for the vibrate option
the audio boost is present in most custom ROMs such as cyanogen. so you really should have no problem if you use that. i know my volume has increased very well using cyanogen so i dont have any complaints anymore.
i do remember in cyan 5.0.8 that the audio hack was TOO loud and people complained, so the dev's reduced it to somewhere in the middle. perhaps you can go try that old ROM and see if that helps just as a test. if so maybe you could edit your kernel to match that old hack? might be a lot of work though...
i'm using one of the gingerbr roms from this forum
so you'r suggesting me to wait for the cyano's gingerbr?
p.s. today i bought an ideos for my old father ((( its LOUDER AND LOUDER than my n1 (((((
Unfortunately, you will have to live with crappy HTC speakers I am afraid. Rom's don't have a significant difference - I mean it will still sound crap :/, I don't know why HTC keep doing this.

dont say me so! please! i heard about people who solved and had to REDUCE volumes beacause the loudnes made the speaker clip instead!
i wanna clip my speakeeerrrrr!
Try enomthers Official ROM with the AudioMod kernel. I now run my incall volume at 50% where on the stock ROM I had it maxed all the time. The speaker phone is actually useful now as well. Besides this excellent perk its also a very fast and stable ROM with lots of features that I've found I can't do without. I ran a Gingerbread ROM for a week and was so happy when I switched back.

do you know if it's possible to flash only the audio hack? i'm just running stock cyanogen 6.1.1 and i would like to play around with the audio hack. can i flash it somehow, or does it have to be built into the ROM? and also, i have a build environment set up, so could i just play around with the kernel code for the hack, and compile my own kernel for testing it out?
Can anyone suggest any 'good' solution? kernel or otherwise to fix this $#@$# 'bug' of low in-call volume in Nexus One??
Would really appreciate all the help!

That's my problem from the beginning. Speaker is crap and there is nothing you can do. Tried different ROMs and nothing changed it.

[Q] Talk Mic Background Noise

I just got my HD2 a couple days ago an went with MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 v2.6 A2SD+ NAND build which was nice and easy to flash over and has really impressed me.
The only problem I have, however, is that the talk mic is too loud and people I call complain that it sounds like I am on speaker phone. I've tested it a bit and it seems that it is too loud.
Obviously the build I am using is not the newest, but has this been addressed in something like pongster's HyperDroid builds?
I've searched all around and this seems to be an issue that was more common when the MDJ build was released, but it would seem people are still having issues with some newer builds?
Thanks so much!
So, I have switched over to the HyperDroid builds and it didn't help the problem, I also went ahead and followed the proposed solution on this thread and haven't really noticed much of an improvement. Is there no way to throw an app in the signal path and just turn the gain down? Or better yet run some sort of background noise reduction?

Lag on all roms?

Hey guys. So i had a Nexus 5 for about two weeks. i was slightly dissapointed in the camera and screen. although it is built by LG as well, i noticed the quality control may have been a bit more lenient(to cut costs im sure), as there was minor light bleed. i found a mint condition LG G2 on craigslist for $420, so i decided to get it and return the Nexus 5 for a refund. As far as screen, battery and camera are concerned, the G2 is amazing. My problem lies with some of the unresolved issues which i am hoping are software based. I do have the issue where the touchscreen will randomly go crazy with phantom touches (fixed by turning screen off and on again). I've also noticed lag, on the stock launcher as well as apex and nova. the phone was rooted when i got it, so i decided to flash cm10.2, carbon rom, and cleanrom...with all of these roms, i experienced lag (swiping around homescreens/app drawer). i dont benchmark, but i know this phone is just as fast as the Nexus 5, so it shouldnt lag on aosp based roms. im really not trying to bash on the phone because it really is amazing, but i really feel like maybe i made a mistake. do you guys have any ideas what may be causing the lag? i have tried stock based roms as well as aosp based and still experience it.

Dude stop complaining. These ROMs you speak of that lag, those issue will be resolved over time in the first few builds. Give the devs some time to work out the issues. If you don't like it, don't flash it and get back your Nexus 5 since nothing will satisfy you.
Install AOSP and you'll be fine. Even stock I didn't notice any real noticeable lag.

Thougts about returning to JB?

The reason is headphone audio hissing. I am such an audiophile and cant stand it. I have few questions for you. Please, dont tell me to try JB myself, because i will loose all my apps, data and so on. I just want to be sure about returning. Thanks.
1. Is the performance much worse comparing to KK?
2. Do you know any KK roms that has no headphone hissing?

I dont know which version your on but the audio hissing was said to be fixed with d80220c. Theres also an option in xposed that has a fix for it. And from what i remember jb didn't perform any worse that kk. I don't think you'll notice any difference unless you compare them side to side.
There's hope

20c - was that the version that came in may/june? It didn't fix it - some people reported that the problem disappeared, but for others(like me) it remained.
In my case it made me switch to using custom KitKat ROM's. I've never had the problem since doing that. CM11, CloudyFlex, G3 ports and now Pardus Sensation Black has all been good in that aspect. I've used Dorimanx's kernel with all but CM11. So you don't need to go back to JB.
You could try and just flash Dorimanx's kernel if you want a fast fix and don't change ROM. I think that might be enough. But if not - switching to one of the ROM:s mentioned definitely fixes it.
There's a monster thread here about it. Im sure by now there would be several fixes or work arounds.
If anyone can tell me how to get good sound on aosp though, I'd love to here it. It seems no matter what I do I can't get it to sound as good as stock no matter how many mods or kernel tweaks I make.

Thanks! Flashed dorimanx kernel, the hiss is still here, but uncomparably quieter.

There is one fix at G2 tweakbox, didn't worked for me. Also temporaly fix you set from from hidden meniu, but once phone reboots you have to refix it again. Some people claim the sound was fixed with the most recent update. No other fixes

[Q]Echo on any CM12 based roms. Note 3

O I have been using touchwiz for a while and wanted to test our stock or CM12 based ROM just to see.
The main issue is on normal calls people hear themselves slightly depending on how high the voulume is set on the device
This was never an issue with touchwize and I tested all the following ROMs and the same result. If ytou lower the voulme the issue goes away but its hard to hear sometimes.
Im not sure if this is a noise suppression issue or something else but I know people have commented on these issues in the threads of these ROMs
Anyone aware of a fix for this?
Thanks

Have you provided log to temasek if you tried his rom. Normally you have to work it to get noticed. Like providing logs and how to.....

Since issue was occurring with all 12.1 type ROMs (tested PAC man yesterday as well) figured at this point the issue isnt related to 1 specific ROM
which one are you running? Also what model are you using?
So it seems the issue is CM12.1 roms and phone cases and how echo cancellation works vs TZ roms
I tried a bunch of different cases from different brands at best buy and same thing.Otterbox, Trdent, Bodyglove, cheap brand
Seems TW firmware is better at echo cancellation then CM12.1
Volume on CM12.1 must be about 60% or under for other people not to hear their own voices
