Hey guys I bought my phone 2 days ago, and its a great phone for the price.
So.. I'm having a problem on bluetooth calls, the volume is to low and the sound quality is not the best, but when I play music trough bluetooth it works great, I'm running Android 8.0 Oreo, does anyone know any fix for that?

(Update: 2/23/10: To replicate the problem, use a bluetooth headset, make a call, then walk away from the phone until you're almost out of range. That's exactly the problem I have when I'm holding the device, it doesn't matter where I am distance wise, the best audio call quality I get STARTS where most phones get when you're too far from the device. Ideas?)
After weeks (3 straight) of searching, I have to finally ask.
Does anyone else have an issue with the quality of their bluetooth connection (calls only) regardless of brand and distance from the phone?
I've purchased nearly 13 different bluetooth devices trying to fix this. Changing the distance from the actual handset (experimenting if there's a different to if the Hero is plugged in or not), the price of the bluetooth unit, what type it was (speaker phone unit only, carkit, headphones, ad2p or not, etc etc), and I still have a poor call quality call.
Reception isn't an issue, I've tried from full bars to almost no bars, and in every instance, when I disconnected the bluetooth and went back to using either speakerphone, headphones, or directly on the device, the noise went away.
You can only hear the noise when the remote party speaks, and it really sounds like the old analog bag phones in bad reception. Is there anything as far as changing settings on the bluetooth to improve the audio quality?
not really. the BT module sends information to the receiver and the receiver decodes that into audio. so you cant really set an EQ for BT with android at least so it basically depends on the receiving unit. while music is playing turn the volume down to 75% on the phone and thats the best quality you will get. im an audiophile and it works for me.
I have a Plantonics Stereo BT.
It works great on my Hero... Much better than my HTC Diamond!
Haven't had any trouble from my Jawbone 1. The sound quality isn't as good as it was on my TP, TP2 or Pre but it's ok. Haven't had any weird noises. But it does randomly disconnect from my Hero. Well the phone says it is still connected but I get no call notifications through it and when I answer, the audio is through the handset. Even right after I finish talking to someone through the BT. Gonna have to chalk it up to the Hero cause I've had no issuse with it on any other phones. Best BT ever in my opinion.
Yeah, I don't know. I have used the Jawbone II, Jawbone Prime, Moto H12, Moto H790, and Plantronics Voyager Pro all with no problems in sound quality, also audio quality is very important to me because I do have some hearing loss. My call quality with the Hero isn't quite as good as with my old Blackberry Curve, but it is still very functional as I use it at least an hour everyday. If you have gone through that many headsets it is quite possibly the device itself.
I don't know, I have 3 Hero's and I honestly don't like the quality of sound on any of them. One of them is just straight stock. I just wish I could get it with a clear quality as my old dumbphones have. I think I've been helped to discover the answer to my question, thank you all!
I tried to use the Streak with both of my bluetooth handsfree devices (stock Toyota Prius solution and Becker Cascade Pro) and it doesn't work: In the Toyota the voices are choppy on both ends of the conversation and with the Becker I only get static when I call or receive a call.
Since both handsfree kits work with all my Symbian phones the error seems to have something to do with the Streak. Does anybody experience similar problems?

Yes, with my Pioneer head unit. The a2DP streaming is incredibly good but some calls get really choppy and broken. There don't seem to be any settings you can play with like the ol' WM days either!
Frustrating as I do 120 miles a day in the week and could do with better BT call quality!
Are you guys still on 1.6 or did you update to 2.1?
Still the stock ROM as I don't think rooting works with German Streaks.

Hi,
bite late replying, sorry
Yes firmware 1.6
Used it again today and the call started out OK and just progressively got worse. Very frustrating because as I previously mentioned the A2DP streaming is virtually CD quality.
Hope it's just a firmware thing and an update sorts it cos this thing is becoming more awesome by the day, as I add stuff to it!
Sony BT XPLOD stereo
I can make calls ok and stream music ok. I just cannot stand the stuttter that happens every couple of minutes. The audio on a call or the A2DP from slacker will inexplicably stutter at least once every several ninutes. It is so maddening when I consider how good it sounds otherwise. If I turn off bluetooth, it immediately stops.
Has anyone tried it with a 2.1 ROM yet? Cos it's a major PITA!
I basically can't phone anybody on my way home from work as they can barely hear what i'm saying for the rapid stuttering. Same on the receive side as well.
As I've previously mentioned streaming music is playing fine. No stutter on mine and superb quality.
Is there nothing I can change to fix it?
Hello I am using gal 3 apollo and I have had a problem with some audio settings
Even with the 3.5 mm jack sound is not loud it seems they have locked the output for battery life somehow. And I just bought a New Nokia BH 505 Which is pretty clear . But When I connect it to my phone It has a weird like low quality sound as if the signal is not good. At first I thought it was range so I put it next to my BT still same and i even walked to the other room .. and it still sounded like that so signal is fine. I tried this BT on my Blackberry Full quality rich music the whole workds so i know its the samsung.
I heard of a hack to increase output 3.5mm on a Spica in service mode but i didn't understand or know how to unlock this limit (if this is the Problem) I Alson See a Bluetooth Gain settings I have the link over here http://android.bigresource.com/Samsung-i7500-headphones-volume-hack-galaxy-hl7LazklU.html. This Would be very great if someone knows how to fix this Thanks all
Hi everyone. I just got a Galaxy note 3 and its pretty great but I am having one issue. I have a Bluetooth headset that I love and it doesn't seem to be compatible with my new phone. When I make a call the sound on my side is very distorted and almost impossible to understand at any volume. The caller on the other end says that they can hear me fine. I know it's not an issue with the bluetooth headset as it worked fine with my last phone (Galaxy Note 1).
Any ideas on what would be causing the issue and how to fix it?
It would really bum me out if this headset won't work with my new phone. I went through about 5 other bluetooth headsets before I found one that the noise cancellation actually worked on.
Headset I have is the VXI Blue Parrot Express

Tested several BT headsets, car BT and most of the time i get stattic and Extremly bad call quality on both ends.. Sometimes it works without any problem.
Even Call quality with phone itself is pretty bad compared to other phones i owned.
Googled and several have this issue.
Wounder if there is any fix?
THanks

I have no issues either with my headphones.
Its only Call qualty..IF i listen to a radio station/song on BT there are no problems. But as soon as its a call it goes to hell! Must be a software issue.
Beside that even call recorders have problem.
I had the same issues with my car stereo and Bluetooth. Kept having to repair. Same thing happens to my smart watch. I just feel like it's something in the Bluetooth radio. Idk it's really annoying.

Sadly its very anoying and if the Nougat firmware wont fix it i will return the phone. Will wait 1 more week
I Tested it with following BT
Car BT Audio streaming works,. Calls Disaster
Jabra Stealth - Works on both calls and audio. BT 4.1
Jabra Boost - Horrible at calls, Audio streams works fine
Samsung Gear S3 Works on both calls and audio
Dunno if changing caller app changes anything?! But strange thing that it works for some headsets but not all. And its easier to change the phone than the Car
