Hey there,
I know it has been discussed partly, but with I think different aspects and details than I have. To cut it short: in about 50% of my phone calls, be it with good or bad reception, people cannot hear me speak on the phone.
The fun thing is, this cannot be connected to the internal microphone since I have it both on the normal mic as well as my bluetooth headset. No matter whether I call them or they call me. Sometimes (!) it helps to mute and re-enable the microphone on-screen, but this is not always effective. I thought this may be related to a bad combination of firmware and radio, but I recently switched to InsertCoin GE und updated both FW and radio, to no avail as regards to that matter. Furthermore, sometimes phonecalls just drop in the middle of a conversation, with no change in signal quality as far as I recognize.
Does this sound like some software thingy (and one might have a solution) or would you believe this is hardware related?
All the best in advance

Hi can you tell us what exact combination of Firmware ROM Kernel etc you are using currently?

Hey there,
of course, I picked InsertCoin GoogleEdition with the corresponding 3.06.1700.10 firmware that's offered as a complementary download for the ROM. No hands on the kernel, left the one coming with the ROM. Does that help ?

can you do a nandroid backup and try with another ROM? You could also ask in the thread of the ROM if someone got a similar problem.
I would also downgrade the firmware to the latest for HTC One (non GE). this should not be the problem but just to be sure

Yeah, I think I can. But I came from a 4.2.2 ROM with the latest radio, TrickDroid 8.0 and I had the very same problems. Does it more sound like a hardware than a software issue?

if it happens with other ROMs too it is most propably a hardware issue

Hi,
I'm experiencing some static noise during rings, but as soon as the other party pick up, the static noise is gone. I don't think it's for every call though, I couldn't remember, but I remember I get that often. Is anyone experiencing the same thing?
Thanks.
I have never experience that.
Suggestion:
How about flashing another Radio to see if problems persist. If they don't then you know it was a radio problem if they do with other radio's then it could be a hardware issue. Don't think this is a ROM issue.

Thanks for the reply and suggestion, band27.
I'm currently using the latest official ROM 2.03.831.2 with Radio 1.08.25.20. Which radio version do you suggest? And do I need HardSPL just to flash a different radio version?
I hope it's just a radio issue, but I'm a bit skeptical about it, because if it's the radio, isn't it supposed to be the same for both ring and connected? I'm not sure, but this can be said for hardware as well.
Yes, please Hard SPL your device before any flashing including Radio's. I'm currently using as my signature states the ....1.09.25.23.
However, it's difficult to recommend Radio's especially since there are many factors, location being one of them, that creates different scenarios for everyone.
Hello,
I have a huge problem with my new LG 2x. I installed CM7 and everything went fine and I was quite happy about my new phone. Then I called someone and he complained about my terrible voice quality. Acutally it's not the voice qualitity, he can hear me clear but there's this static "signal checking" noise in the background - like when a phone is getting a call and lying next to your speakers. (I don't know if there is an English word for?).
I testet all basebands with it's corresponding RILs, the problem occured with all of them. Then I noticed that he can hear me perfectly when I put my speaker on while calling.
Now I went back to Stock with NVFlash on 10b - and updated via the LG update software to 10c (it game together with baseband 0405) - still there was this noise. I tried all basebands again - it seems to be better on 0503 ONLY. Still no great audio quality but at least not this noise.
Do you have any idea what I can do now? Is my device broken? It's really unuseable this way.. and I heard that most people are able to use CM7 with the newer basebands (0503, 0622) - am I the only one who is not?
I'm on O2 Germany on 2G (can't get more than EDGE here) if that matters.
I really hope you can help me
I love this device but I need to make calls with a goddamn phone...
Thanks in advance,
tony
Edit: I didn't test the "0622 Gingerbread only" Baseband because I read somewhere that this shouldn't be used.
noone here at xda? oO
Your phone probably have a defect microphone. You should get it repaired.
i have exactly the same problem (eplus-base)
but the microphone can't be defect, cause i have the problem only at home
everywhere else it's fine..
i think it's the low signal strength..
(cm7 standard ril and baseband 1802)
I live in Finland, operator is Saunalahti. I have exact same, problem. Only baseband is 502, which won't give "electronic noise" to people who i am calling...
I don't have any idea, why it is so. I have tried, basebands 622, 614, 606. Always same "electronic noice".
I also have the same problem and I think that there is allot more people with the same problem. In my case it gets really bad with any Gingerbread based rom.

annoying noise - help please
It's not a hardware fault as it sounds perfect in froyo ROMs
I have the same problem after installing cyanogen mod. Did you find a solution ?
When I do/receive calls I need to put phone in loud speaker mode to listen.
The other side of the call can hear me and also hears himself (not a real eco its like the speaker and mic are connected).
Tryed to flash Nova 8 Rom, CM7 Nightly v11 and v20... and also stock rom...
Everything defaulted...
Everything reseted...
Happened after using CSipSimple app (Voip Calls) and after i tried to change Sound Routing (or something similar...)
Any tips?
I'm tired of looking on the web (over 5h today...)
Thank you
Update:
There is no eco now (dunno what I did to fix it...).
Also tested with handset (cable phones) and it works fine...
Could it be hardware?
I hope it is software and it has a fix...

The audio are the main problem for CM, and haven't any solution yet, or perhaps you can try my build (look at my signature). If your problem still persist, I can't handle that, since our CM P970 is still working in progress, the source is not completed yet, as we can say perhaps it still 50%.

You also already 'downgrade' to Stock ROM and still having the problem. It might be the hardware. But, referring your CSipSimple app, perhaps that's the problem. What if you're not using it, is it normal?

Thank you for your reply
I went back to Stock Rom (Vodafone Portugal V10a), everything fully reset (even unrooted, at least I do not have root access), no programs installed (other than the OEM ones) and the problem is still here...
I'm thinking on giving it back to Waranty, do you think it is still viable?
I flashed stock rom using LG Support Recovery Tool (100% oficial as you know).
Thank you again!
Greetings!
This is my first post in this forums. They've been very useful to flash, check updates, etc and I've never had the necessity of posting anything since I've cleared mostly any doubt I've ever had about my Android devices. This time, after searching all over the forums and in several other sites over the net I haven't been able to find any solution to my problem. Let me expose it:
Few months ago after having flashed my device to different ROM's, my friends started to tell me that they couldn't hear me well during phonecalls. The sound was not clear enough. They could hear, the volume was ok, but the phonecall the sound call they would recieve was not well.
I thought that this would be related to the hardware, maybe the mic was broken, because once I was thrown into a swimmingpool and I saved my phone by putting it into a jar with rice and letting it rest for few days. However, I have used other programs such as Skype and done the test phonecall so I could hear myself and it went verywell compared to call recorder app tests or regular call, the sound was much better. So I guess that the microphone is still okay and the problem is related to a setting issue that haven't been changed with flashing to different ROMS.
I've been running several ROMS, most of them based in CM7 and I'm now back to the latest stock ROM for America (2.3.5) and the problem is the same.
Any advice will be very apprecciated!
Yeh, if it doesnt work change the mic !

Thanks for the answer.
Actually, nothing of the posted above has worked out. If its a software problems how changing hardware would work?
if its still there is a problem after flashing stock one...than its probably your mic need replacement..!

I just cant figure how the mic works well with skype and not with phonecall and how changing de mic would fix it
I'm having lots of problems while calling, I can hear the person on the other side of the line perfectly while they can't hear anything I say (I sound very far away from the phone). This makes it impossible to have a normal conversation with anyone.
I understood flashing a new Radio could solve this problem, now my question is:
Where do I find these radio's and which one should I flash (Xperia V 4.3, The Netherlands)?
Andddddddddd Bash.
It might be a problem of mic. I had this problem before and the service center had replaced the mic. They said it was water damaged.

Can't be the problem, recording of sound is fine (Whatsapp record, video etc.)

Then it's software-related and not a hardware/radio issue.
Did this problem come with 4.3 or did it exist on 4.1, too? What about other ROMs like CM - are you able to test?
Exactly what I thought, but I just moved from 4.3 stock, to 4.3 Lovins. And I can't recall if it happened on 4.4 CM..
That's why I was kinda hoping I could just flash another radio/baseband or something.

are u saying you dont remeber if the radio was working on CM 4.4 e.g.!?
Honestly, if you sound really far away it cant be a problem connected to baseband/radiofirmware. Its either because you are standing quite far away from the person you are trying to test-call (joke) or due to the phone app.
Make a NANdroid and try it with another firmware....
No that's not what I said I meant, I can't recall if the issue was happening.
