Call Echo - Samsung Focus S

The person on the other end of the line hears themselves in an echo. Seems to be a problem with the Focus S and a lot of other WP7 Phones.
Why is this? And how can I fix it? Really annoying and I've searched everywhere, no one has a solution?

I sometimes hear an echo of myself, other times I don't, its very odd, the mere fact it isn't all the time kind of rules out hardware, at least in my situation I wonder if its some radio compatibility setting issue, this phone was only sold on the AT&T US network after all, stands to reason the radio will be "tuned" for them

problem: i hear my voice echo when talking

the caller on the other end said that it is clear on their side however on my side (tilt) i hear my own voice echo on every call. its not very bad, but not acceptable either
has anyone else had this problem and a fix?
I have the same problem. Sounds perfect with a bluetooth headset,,, but horrible with just the handset. Hopefully it can be fixed with software, because as it is now my 8125 had much better call quality.
i am having the same problem, i am on the tilt rom. what rom are you using? is it just tilts or all kaiser?
if kaiser is fine i will just put a the kaiser rom on it.
It seems as if the phone was doing that the first 3 days, and now its completely stopped doing it. It is the tilt rom, with a lot of add on programs. Im not sure if it worked it out itself, or if it is because of the programs on it though.
This used to happen quite often on my 8125 and was so loud I could not hear the other person. It now happens very rarely on my 8525 and not nearly as pronounced. My mom has also experienced it on her flip phone.
I always thought it was a network problem with AT&T.
I also get this on the handset.
Tilt, no EXT ROM cabs installed, just a few apps.
its happening on my tilt tom
I have this on my Dutch Tytn II but only when i call one particular number. Figured it was my friend's phone, but you guys make me wonder ...
Ditto. I am hearing alot of feedback. What makes it worse is that my wife also has the Kaiser, and has the same echo problems.
I just returned my original Tilt to the store.
New model has the exact same issue.
I do hear my own sound, sometimes not all the time. Is it the AT&T service or the phone
I had this when I first got my Tilt. After flashing the Kaiser ROM, it was gone.
Have a tilt, and also have this problem....
i have a tiny echo. annoying all the same.

Usually it's a network problem. I had it on and off with a variety of Verizon phones, usually when signal strength was weak.
Haven't had it yet with AT&T, but I'm sure it's a matter of time.
I just had a thought. This may be the side effect of a "feature".
On the Hermes you could not record both sides of a conversation when using the recorder in notes. If I recall (correct me if I am wrong) you could only hear your side.
However, on the Kaiser (I am rocking a Tilt) I just tested it and the recorder, sure enough, picks up both sides.
Just a thought.
Later, Lew
solutions?
I have the same issue. I just got my tilt 3 days ago, heard the echo of my own voice on calls so I took the phone back for another and the echo is still there. Has anyone found a fix/reason for this yet? This thread died down about 2 months ago... are people still having this problem?
My guess is the network problem, I have the TytnII on T-Mobile network USA. And I have the same problem once a while.... but usually is at a weak signal place.....
I have the same problem with my razr phone. Wonder if we all have AT&T for service?

Phonecalls keep cutting out during mid call.and people complain they cant hear me

Hi
Had the kaiser 3 months now..had the initial prob with the speaker phone...where people just couldnt hear me..now this..
I know its the phone has tried my chip in my old phone and no problems.
everytime I make a call the other people say that my voice is cutting out and coming back in..sometimes the phone call just cuts off and i have to call back..
anybody here having the same probs with Kaiser/wario III etc.??????

This could be a hardware, software issue. Without checking we cannot tell. Hopefully it's either software or the "banswitching" issue. If it is a new thing that has just started then a hard reset may solve the problem.
Many folks with newer phones in areas where different available phone bands are present, report dropped calls as the phone seeks to change to the strongest signal.
See this thread (one of many) that mentions the problem) also note the Bandswitch application that lets you fix the phone to one band to avoid the problem:

I presume you've tried turning off Microphone AGC (Automatic Gain Control) if it was enabled and you're using the speakerphone?

Hi, any news regarding your problem? It seems I have same issue, after replacing my LCD screen. I would like to find some solution.
Echo is a ''normal'' ting not a device bug.
There is an echo on every call. Echos are caused by feedback in devices that take two wire signals into 4 wire signals, that is a telephone. Even when you talk you get echo, from your head and objects around you.
So why are some echo okay and others are annoying, it is the delay between the spoken signal and the time that the echo returns. The brain cancels echos that return within a small period of time. If that time is exceeded then the line has to have an echo canceller added to the line. The echo canceller takes the original signal and at the appropriate time sends the signal back 180 degrees out of phase with the echo, so it cancels out the echo. That only works with a known delay. The person that mentioned loading coils is correct as on your local line there are no echo cancellers, so a defective one (very occasionally and not the most common cause) would be annoying. With traditional telephone networks the known delay on a long distance call will allow echo cancellers to be on the end of the circuit over the distance, when they fail then they need to be repaired.
The delay on cell phone calls and VoIP calls can be variable and the echo cancellers do not work if the delay is variable. The technology could be there but would be too expensive to put into the equipment for all but the most common delay length.
So if it is a land line to land line call even over long distance report it so that the problem is fixed. If it is on a VoIP or a cell call (at one end or both ends) then it is more problematic and you can report it but it may not be able to be fixed. Sometimes there is a route that has a lot of data and voice mixed and changing the voice to another route can fix the problem if it is reported by enough people.

Echo during voice calls

Hello guys.
Its 2 weeks now since iv bought this moto g2.
I have noticed that once in 5calls i have been hearing echo
And some different voice quality during the call.
Is my device faulty or is there any setting kindof thing
Thanks
You're not using a headset are you? Also this used to be a big problem on some carriers, ie. AT&T. Have you rebooted your phone since you had the problem, if not try that. The reason I asked about a headset, if it's not fully seated, it can cause an echo.
I never tried the headset... I use the headset v rarely..
I'm in india and I'm using airtel.... One of the best networks in india.
Usually sound quality is not bad but this echo thing..happens once
In 5-6 calls.. V irritating at times when I'm on an important call..
I almost spend 3hours a day on calls on my moto g2
Same problem here, I have a moto g 2014 XT1068 since december.
Everything was fine the first days I had it, but lately people I was talking with started to complain about this echo issue. They hear themselves voices.
I've tried everything but nothing works, sometimes it just disappear.
I even flashed 5.0.2 soak test to see if it was a software issue, but echo is still alive!
I don't have any problem with Hangout or Skype calls.
Is there a way to fix that problem? Like, a way to change mic settings?
Still noticing echo during calls , not exactly echo but Disturbance and changed quality of voice during calls
Plz help
OMG thought it's only me!
Do you guys still have the echo problem?
I also have that echo problem.
I don't know when that happens, and it's very rare. Today it happens on my second SIM wich is on 2G.
Do you also have the problem with the second SIM and 2G?, or happened to you also with the first SIM and/or 3G?
