Hi
I bought a new motorola droid razr m,
I use it international (GSM and WCDMA) and sometimes the other side does not hear me (Like a silence). Is there any way to fix it? an app or something?
Please help It is a good phone but it does not worth it if it does not work perfectly.
Does it happen on speaker phone also?

Actually, I have a similar problem. When on speakerphone, the other person can hardly hear me, and so the feature is basically useless. And I've also noticed that the in-ear speaker is also on the low audio quality side. Is this a hardware issue? If so, might be time to upgrade...
i have the same problem from time to time but hasent happened since i updated to kitkat but its too soon to tell if the update did anything about that issue. one thing that i noticed if i pressed the google talk button on the top of the main screen it would strobe like there was st\eady sound waves going through no matter how silent the room was, its easier to test with google search button rather than make calls. (i would not recomend this uness you are out of ideas or just dont care) but i slammed it against a wall a couple times and whadaya know it started to work again. it may sound caveman-ish but maybe if youve dropped it few times something becomes slightly disconnected :silly: i got mine for free cause the screen was cracked slightly in exchange for some time fixing a friends xbox so i didnt really care about messing anything up any further but it worked for me.

Hi,
I just got a td2 and straightaway thought that the speakerphone sounded abit crackly. After showing a couple of friends and seeing what they thought they both said the crackling was abit weird but maybe the phone was just like that but im not entirely sure.
Does anyone else have any trouble with there speakerphone? When the volume is completly low it sounds fine, putting it up even abit causes there to be a small crackle when someone speaks (signal is fine and ive tried with a few of my friends).
I've got a 14 day return policy with this company i have gotten my contract from and its been 3 days now and i should be able to get a replacement but i dont want to send it off and them to say this is how its supposed to be. So is this a known cause or is there something that can be fixed or did i just get a bad td2?
Thanks
I have had it with my Touch 3G, before making a call i blowed in the speaker and it was gone.
My HTC Touch Diamond2 does not have that problem.
i had a very similar problem. the speaker worked fine, but when the voice hit a certain pitch level it would distort slightly, like it was picking up a vibration.
I sent it back and got a replacement, and the new one is fine.
Right thanks to both of u, ive tried the blowing thing already and tried again but no luck.
I think the problem is exactly the same as the u described adamrob69 but I just didn't explain it very well lol, so i've sent them an email and will ring on monday and get it exchanged, how lucky must i be to get sent a faulty one .
Thanks
dont worry, it seems at the minute theres a 50-50% of getting a duff phone. The build quality is slipping on these phones.
Im still not enitrely happy with the quality of my second one, but whilst everything still works on it im not going to go through the hassle of changing again!
I have same problem but with speaker at side, when phone rings the sound cracks.
I have had my nexus for about a month now and a little while back started having problems with the microphone. People on the other end will say I sound like I am in a "tunnel" or "distant". Seems to get worse during long conversations. Sometimes I can hold a 20 minute conversation and not have one problem other times it gets so bad that they cant even hear me.
I have really good reception and 3g at my house. I called T-mobile to see if it could be something with their network and they said probably not since they had only noticed problems in Texas and some other random state (I live in BK,NY) . Called HTC and they were no help at all (said I should try and reboot my phone thats all they could think of). Called google and they said I sounded just fine. As I said before It doesn't happen during every single call, but I have had about 3 different people tell me the same thing...
Anyways, the bootloader is unlocked so I can't send it in to get it replaced or even have it looked at with out paying an arm and a leg.
Anyone Have any ideas? Anyone? Bueler? Bueler?
Thanks.
Ok this is just a random thought as I have had a similar experience, but only when I hold said phone with my shoulder. Are we perhaps doing something to the noise cancelling mic? Would covering it make a difference during a conversation? Something to do with the proximity sensor? i am just thinking out loud.
I dont think its the proximity sensor because I put tape on it keeping the screen off and it was still doing it. as for covering the mic on the other side I don't know. I guess i could cover it for a while and see what happens. I'm going to send it to HTC and see what they say. Hopefully its a hardware issue that they can fix for nothing.
Hello everyone i have had my galaxy for awhile now and i dont know why i never posted this but phone reception is very bad. When someone calls me or i call someone i can hardly hear them, this is with the volume turned up to max.....is there a volume hack or something to turn up volume on inner calls past the max ?....anything at all would be helpful.
There is a way to turn up your volume but you'd have to do it every time you reboot your phone, just search the forums for it. I never had a problem with my galaxy s phones gt-i9000m and I had two of them. Maybe your phone is defective and you can exchange it?

are you sure you are putting the earpiece where it's supposed to go?
if you have it higher, you wont hear it, if you have it lower you wont hear it
it has to be exactly facing your inner drums
it's the same with all other phones i've had in the past
have you tried Bluetooth? perhaps that will work better for you?
my SGS sounds loud and clear, and i got bad hearing
Same problem with mine. I find it has something to do with the signal though. When I call OCTranspo or my voicemail or something it's loud and clear, but when I speak to people it always sounds like they're whispering.
hmm it seems fine right now....i really hope it was cause i was in a dead spot or low signal reception when i was on the phone....i will monitor the phone for the next few days and post here if i fall into this problem again thanks for the help guys!...oh and Gamer ill look into that bluetooth headset maybe.
the first 2 are recorded messages, so the audio quality is expected to be the same all the time
those are very good point of reference
that means whatever it is the problem is not the phone earpiece, but the people talking on their end
otherwise you'll be hearing whisper like sound from the voice recorded systems

I used that hack. worked alright
On calls I get popping sounds. a few times the pops have been so loud I almost dropped.
The microphone is also really low. people can't hear me I use to be able (Gnexus) to set the phone down and talk with it on the computer table next to me but now they can't hear me.

Standard 'is this a hardware problem?' test:
1. If you are on a custom ROM, flash completely back to stock and retest.
2. If you are already on stock, backup all your data and factory reset. Even better, completely wipe the phone and re-install stock and retest.
3. If the issue still occurs, the issue is most likely with the hardware. If the issue no longer occurs, then it was a software problem.
4. If I understand this reply correctly, you have already received a replacement device and the issue still occurs. In this case, you happen to be very unlucky.
As for the Nexus 4 in general, I can only speak anecdotally. I don't have the issue on the seven Nexus 4 devices I've tested: two of my own, three from coworkers/friends who also own the device, and two test devices.

Since the issue only happens during Skype calls and not while using the standard calling function, I would blame this issue on VOIP quality: either your latency is high, Skype is having quality issues, or some combination of the two. I have issues with Skype call quality on both my phone and my PC, and the issues are largely to do with Skype throttling the call bandwidth.
what about my mic issue the sounds very low. is there a way to change the gain on the microphone? I always use my phone by calling 1 of my friends I'm placing the phone beside my desk as I speak with them they can't hear me with this new phone they were able to perfectly hear me with the galaxy Nexus.

No advice?
I don't talk a lot on the phone, so it's taken a couple months to find out this issue.... When I'm talking to someone on the phone, I have to hold the phone pressed up against my face and speak a little louder than I normally do.. If I pull it away any at all, people are always saying they can't hear me or I sound really muffled.
I just called my voice mail and left a message, and this is what I've discovered as well. I knew what I said, but had problems understanding myself unless I held it right up to my face and spoke slightly louder than I've had to do with any other phone.
I heard, back in December, this was an issue and was to be fixed on the next update.... I'm now on a M29P (January release) ROM and nothing has changed.
Has anyone found this to be an issue or have you found a work around/fix for this?
I have the same issue.
When I put the phone in my neck so I have my hands free, people tell me I'm very hard to hear, and it's perfect when I hold it in a normal position...
It's quite frustrating, as I sometimes need to have my hands free..
Same here

Same happen here, it's because the noise reduction micro that the nexus 6p has back, check the small hole on the back face of the phone, when you are in a call put your finger there and they will say the same "I cannot hear you well", there are tweaks on the forums, but I have not tested yet, I used to use the speakers instead
If the phone is like 6 inches away they cant hear me, it's a noise cancelling issue, too strict.
Change in build.prop from true to disable noise cancelling.
persist.audio.fluence.voicecall=false
I had this with the very first call I made, but haven't had that complaint since

do this. fixed mine and my mothers problem with calls being muffled
I can't fathom how this is still an issue. I get constant, i mean CONSTANT echo. People stating they hear themselves when they talk to me. I finally downloaded build prop editor as instructed here and edited persist.audio.fluence.voicecall=false as shown here. I have yet to test but it can't possibly get worse than EVERY DAMN CALL not working. Seriously , this is a phone, the tech for calls was perfected only a decade or more ago ?

Do you have any issues when in busy areas like restaurants, bars, airports etc?
the issue is still persist even after the June OTA. is there any way we can contact Google or Huawei to fix this issue permanently ?
I really love the phone but this issue is frustrating as it is a basic need in any phone. phone calls must be ok. how it can be fixed without root.
Have the issue here too even after June update. Will be rooting to edit build prop to see if it helps since I'm not sure I'll get much of any help from Huawei's support.
