I wear 2 over the ear hearing aids and it is almost impossible to hear callers without putting the phone on speaker. I just bought this phone. It's a pain in the butt to have to pull down the notification bar each time I make or answer a call to turn the speaker on. Every other phone I've owned has the speaker icon available on the phone screen, not hidden on the notification bar.
Does anyone know of a way to make this phone function like I'm used to?
Phone Info: Moto X Pure US Edition, Factory Unlocked
Android 6.0
System Version: 24.231.16.clark_retus.retus.en.US.retus
Thanks in advance.

Hey guys,
For some reason my hero is causing a lot of problems in terms of answering phone calls. If I stand 10 feet away from the phone, I have full connectivity and if I call my phone from another phone, I get the trackball lighting up on my hero when I've heard the 3rd ring on the phone I'm calling from. If I carry on listening, by about the 6th ring I get my first ring on my hero. This is a very big problem as people give me a call and I used to answer immediately and so no one waits more than 2-3 rings. Is there a fix for this?
Many Thanks
try menu > settings> sounds and display. Turn off the "quiet ring on pickup"
try Cronos rom,your hero will ring immediately as a call's coming
Hey guys,
Thanks so much for your help. I've tried it on chronos and disabled the option for a day and have been asking everyone of my caller about which ring it was (1st, 2nd or 3rd) and the good news is I get the trackball half way through 2nd ring and the ringtone on the 3rd which is a very significant improvement. If it is possible to improve it slightly more then it would be perfect. I dont need it straight on one maybe missing the first ring on the max.
Thanks again!
So, ever since my Droid X arrived via Fed-EX, I've had issues with the ear speaker in-call volume. Turning up the in-call volume much past half way yeilds, what I describe as a vibration buzz, following any sound coming through the ear peice, similiar to a blown speaker. I plan to have it replaced, but wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this issue?? I hope it's not a design flaw for all of the phones... I would like to turn my phone up past half way!!
Other than that, the phone seems great and I can't wait for Froyo to arrive!
droid x speaker buzz
I too have this problem. My Droid X arrived via fed-ex on Monday, 7/26. It was perfect except for one thing: on any call, the voice of the other person has a "power line buzz" overlay to it whenever they speak. When they're silent, there is no buzz, but when any sound is made from the other end, there is a heavy buzz overlay from the speaker, very annoying. It is more prominent when it is a machine voice on the other end, such as voicemail and especially the activation voice (when I first noticed it).
I should point out that there is no buzz on speakerphone, or with a bluetooth headset/headphones, only when listening using the normal phone speaker, which leads me to believe it is a hardware problem.
I filed a "problem ticket" with Verizon technical support today, who told me that they probably wouldn't get back to me until after the weekend because of their hours...
Hello, after being on the iphone 3g for my 2 years the one thing I really liked was the ability to have the phone on vibrate but, at the same time I could hear custom ringtones so I knew who was calling.
Is there any way I could turn off the sound completely to to handset speaker and have go directly to my headset? I did a search I may have overlooked it a I played with the settings with headset plugged in and to no avail
Booo on this feature.. unless I'm missing something..
Sadly, that's either a feature of Android OS or Motorola.
I had a winmo phone as well, HTC Fuze that sent everything to my BT headset, which was nice, I don't even remember having to silence the phone as it sent everything to my headset.
I had the Droid X on Verizon, and I couldn't get it to do the same, played with all the settings, nada!.... was thinking it was just the Droid X...
Now on my Atrix, same thing as the Droid X.. which makes me believe it's the Android OS. The only way I know if I get a txt/phone call is when I'm listening to music, and it get a quick pause for when a text/email notification pops up. Same with phone call, goes silent longer, so I know my phone is ringing.. which sux, cus then I have to go see who's calling cus I can't hear the custom ringtone in my headset....
Wow! That's how I noticed as well when the music stopped. Yeah sucks now I gotta look but I guess that's what we get for being lathargic lol. I do hope they come up with a remedy for this though.
Hey guys this thing thats been happening to me is absulotely mind boggling and if anyone can resolve this it would be greatly appreciated. it bugs me like theres no tomorrow.
so heres the issue.
i have a samsung galaxy s4 with all the latest updates provided Android Version 4.2.2
when im travelling along in the car or even randomly seated i would receive a call or even make a call and place my phone on loudspeaker now the funny thing here is that the phone after maybe 10-20 seconds will automatically switch back to normal speaker and it annoys me so i have to put it back on loudspeaker mode
ive had the occasional scene where it still showed that loudspeaker was activated but the caller was coming through the normal speaker so it forces me to tap loudspeaker to de-activate it and then tap it again to activate only to realise not long after it automatically switched back to the normal speaker all over again.
NOTE: the phone is laying flat on my lap or standing infront of me.
has anyone had this issue before and is there some sort of fix for it
PLEASE HELPPP !!!
Hello
I'm having an issue, well... not really an issue but an inconvenience.
I have a J5 2015 with LineageOS 16 installed. Everything has been working great until now. However, when I'm answering calls and want it to switch to the loud speaker, I have to manually do so every single time.
Is there any way I could let the phone automatically switch from ear piece to loud speaker when I leave the phone further away from my ear? I looked through all settings but didn't find anything relevant.
Thank you

That's not a feature of any ROM really. You use a tasker script to set it switch to loudspeaker with proximity sensor but if you don't know how to use tasker and scripts then you will definitely not be able to do it.
Very strange feature request. pixel, OnePlus, xiaomi, Samsung etc, none of these phones have a feature like this so I don't know why you are expecting it to be in the settings
Hello
Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure how often do you use it but I use it a lot. I normally have to do something else while the other person talk on the phone. That's why I want the phone to switch to loud speaker immediately when I put it down.
I previously used an IPhone 5s as my first smart phone and this feature was included. Guess I got used to having that around.
Could you share me the link how to set it up manually using tasker script?
Thank you
