Speaker Phone Annoying

Hey guyz i was just wondering u know you put it on loud speaker, the person on the other line always hears an echo of his voice and they can immediatly recognize they're on loud speaker + it's kinda annoying hearing ur own voice. Is there anyway through this? I tried lowering the volume.. no use :/

I think it is either the distance of the phone from your mouth or the phone application itself! I think you do get this even on the normal desk phones, so does the N9210!

my bet is feedback from mic to speaker
all devices which have a mic and a speaker can get feedback
but most likely it would be something they could fix in the software

cybermate it's not Me who i hear the echo of.. the person talking to me always hears His echo and it's annoying to the people i talk to and sometimes id rather talk by speaker because im like typing or something ..

Yup, every time I use speaker phone I am told to get my head out of the bucket.

because speaker phone inc the vol the mic can recieve the sounds comming from the speaker
thats why they can hear themselfs
every time i have my head in a bucket while speaker with people on my xda2 people tell me to disable speakerphone

yeah same here !! shouldn't they have THOUGHT of that at least !! it is important to some people !

I have the same problem any fixes for it.

Yes, me too on my QTEK 9100. Unfortunatley most of my day is spent in long conference calls and the speakerphone is a must! Anyone with any fixes please let me know.
When ever I use it people complain that they can a) hear themselves and b) can hear alot of hissing sounds

Voice / Audio quality

This is something that I really like about my HD. Compared to my Polaris, the voice call quality is really brilliant. Even though I have a kinda low signal here at work, the callers voice is clear as clear can be. Way better than what I was used to with the HD, which wasn't bad either in my eyes ...
What do you guys think about the voice quality?

Are you saying that iPhone's voice is too soft? Was it a problem in noisy environment?

For me the loudness/volume of the ringtone of incoming call is to silent. Al settings of volume are on max. Even when I tried different ingtones.
Can't even find a phone setting ring and vibrate at same time on the HD!Maybe is there something I overlooked?

incoming sms tone

i'm experiencing the loud incoming sms tone whilst im in a call and i couldn't listen to the other side talking. can anyone help me on this?

Yes its annoying when you're on the phone to your dentist and all of a sudden the tone 'Walllll-eeee' speaks over the top of you...not to mention sounds weird. And then you have to ask her to repeat. Quite embarrassing. I'd definately like a solution for this!

VoIP on SGS

Please look anybody the SipDroid application working on SGS!
Do I hear the conversation from the earspeaker or the external speaker? (this is interesting because the echo)
I'm useing Asterisk server and I would like to use the pda like a softphone.

With SipDroid i get sound from earpiece. Call quality is quite decent.
I tried a few other VoIP apps and some of them work on earpiece, some not.

Sipdroid works fine.
Others don't. i can hear the other party but they can't hear me.
The same goes to Fring.

Thanx. Give please the version number of SipDroid working properly.
Several questions:
Can you switch between earpiece and external speaker?
Does the program online when it is in 3G and the device is standby?
What about the incoming call during screenlock?

yes - but with external speaker there is a lot of echo. even using earpiece i had to lower earpiece volume as well as mic gain to eliminate all echo.

It wakes up and lets you answer just like with the native phone app.

Are you using pbxes or your own voip provider?
Because I can't get Sipdroid to work on SGS.
On pbxes I can, but the quality is not good and the sound comes out of back speaker and sometimes earphone, its not consistent. I can't get the sound to come out of the earpiece though.
So someone post a solution please. I'm using the latest 1.5.4 beta.

Set the servername to pbxes.com on the phone, and not to pbxes.org. This should solve your earpiece (sound from eksternal speaker) problem.

Unfortunately, this doesn't help with the problem at all. Sound still comes from external speaker and earspeaker, inconsistently.

On the I7500, apparently they had the same issue, so made a VOIP kernel..
And yes, I have the same problem.

My workaround at the moment is:
When I receive a call
- I hold it
- wait a few seconds
- then unhold
Then usually the audio doesn't come from the back speaker anymore.
Still, we really need a patched Kernel for this.

[Q] low volume in call

I have this problem.
when im in conversation, the volume is very low. but when im listening to music is much higher.
does anyone have this problem as well?
I know its not a reception problem, since i've tried to talk from same place to the same number (which is land line) with WM and with ANDROID.

I am experiencing the same problem. Maybe we need an Audio Gain driver.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I think in general Android in call volume is low.
I also experience this with Nexus One.
I did install WOW SRS on the HD2 WM rom and it seems to increase the volume of Android running on it.
Can someone confirm this on their devices?

do you feel diffrent in android as well or only in WM?

for me its low only in incoming calls but its good in outgoing calls, any idea why ? people said it a wenn known issue in android and has been solved here , i search a lot with no luck .

I am also noticing this. incoming call volume is low and muffled. outgoing call quality is perfect.

Same problem for me too.
I've noticed a similar problem with loudspeaker too, but in this case, disabling and enabling the loudspeaker during the call usually solves the problem.

You must have the ringer on. The rule of thumb is this.
If the speaker is on (playing something) when a call is made/received. There is low volume in call.
50/50 when you are dialing out. You have the dial touch tone disabled or there was enough time for the speaker to re-gain control (<---?) and thus the call volume is good.
I am praying this issue gets fix pronto.. ... I live in a very very noisy city and I can barely hear the earpiece.

well, my problem is in both calls, the volume for it is lower than WM volume
I guess there is no solution for it for now, might be better later (hopefully).

During the call turn speaker on then off real quick this will raise the volume for you

Hello
A simple solution that worked for me was... Settings>Sound Then turn off audible touch tones. Got this from another member the other day.
