Bad voice message quality via whatsapp? - Honor 5C Questions & Answers

Hello all!
My brother has a new Honor 5c. When he sends voice messages via whatsapp to me, his voice is very quiet.
We did a phone call, and his voice is loud but dull.
Is this a known issue?

I am not sure about 5C but I did read somewhere that some Huawei devices have this problem. Whether it's a model problem or device, I can not say for sure...

Try your wireless provider. Could be a possible APN or network issue or faulty setting.

When I tried people couldn't hear me..

press the speaker spot on the dial pad and see it that works, if that doesnt see if the mute is not on. Also there is a list of routers that do not work well with this program, so if you have a wifi xoom then try a diff router signal

Wait so this will work on my wifi xoom? Just want to make sure

So what number does it call from? Do you have to go through a SIP or what?
Also, I wish bluetooth headsets worked with the XOOM. I hate speaker phone mode and I'm sure that's the only way this would work.
After trying several different alternatives this is the best so far. The quality is great on my side but there's some echo on the other side. I'll have to try it with some headphones to see if that makes a difference.
Thanks for sharing.
It should i did a couple of test calls using wifi and 3g and it worked great! I dont have a wifi model so i cant say for sure but the dev website says it will!

That sounds kind of shady. I think I'll steer clear of this one.
bluetooth headsets - Moto S9 works well

Interestingly (for me, at least), my Moto S9 BT headset actually works well with the Xoom. In fact, I had pretty much discarded it until I got the Xoom and tried it out. It skips/drops constantly with my Tmobile G2 and with a BT add-on for my ipods and it had the same problem with every Android phone I've tried it with, from the G1 to the MyTouch 3G. The S9 had already been replaced at least once if not twice to see if the skipping would go away but it did not. I'm saying I could not have the phone in my shirt pocket and phones on my ears without it constantly cutting out - really worthless until now.

works good and just so everyone knows the xooms mic is on the bottom of landscape orientation you have to talk near it to pick up your voice

Poor Call Quality

Anyone else here having hissing/crackling in the background on calls with people?
I have checked settings, I'm not roaming, and the phone is stock out of the box.
With the speaker up to highest and 2nd highest setting I can hear hissing and crackling on several calls. People on the other end say they can hear themselves echoing as well.
Tested a Nexus S and iPhone and both don't have the problem.
Wondering if its just a bad device or issue with the quality of the speaker in the phone(which HTC is known for)
To be more specific, the dead air(in between conversation) sounds hissy/crackling.
I can also hear myself in the earpiece when I talk.
Tried same SIM on nexus s and iphone 4(no problems)
erhm.... LOL?
idk where ur livin or what kinda of provider ur using, but im like 100% sure no one in holland or surrounded (since i dont know the state of other country's have this problem)
so no...
Thank you for that informative reply....
Hi! I wrote it before, because i have the same problem in Hungary... People say they dont understand what iam saying... Echoing everytime.. i try it with another sim it wasnt better...
What can we do whit it??? Iam very angry about it!

your very welcome, and most likely its your provider not the phone, forgot to finish my sentence sometimes im busy and forget to add the rest of what i wanted to say.
Turns out, if the volume is turned up anything beyond 50% of the volume rocker, the sound distorts and can hear very low crackling.
With setting 50% and below crackling is not there.
Maybe a blown speaker? Can anyone test this out on their IS so I know whether to swap it out or not.
Thanks
With the higher volume than 70%, i can hear a little crackilng... So, same problem!
Same problem here, but not with all people (60 % problems ; 40 % - OK.), just with some of them (Nokia users in special)

Eco (is heard by the person that I am talking to)
Waiting for new feedback about crackling problem...
Just bought one of these and made first phone call. I always have earpiece volume on full on every phone I have and I could definitely hear a faint but noticeable buzz / distortion from earpiece when other person spoke.
Oh well I've got 7 days to find a fix or it goes back. I wonder if these are faulty units or all incredible s devices do this.
Can owners who don't have this problem at all chime in ?

[Q] Call Waiting

Can anyone tell me of an app whereby when I call someone and they're on the phone, my phone tells me. I know Samsung's Touchwiz does this. HTC doesn't do it with Sense though and I'm running CM which doesn't do it either.
Bump?
Sent from my Incredible S using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
AFAIK, Android does not have that feature. Samsung and Sony add that by themselves
It actually sucks to think that something so basic is patent encumbered. I'm guessing that's why I'm also yet to find an app to provide this missing functionality.

Doesn't it beep faster for you when you call someone that's talking to someone else?

Nope, if I call someone and they're on a call, my phone just rings normally leaving me none the wiser.
Lulz, that's really odd. For me it beeps faster and hangs up 2 sec later...
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA
In terms of non-Android I know Nokia does and I was surprised to be told that Apple doesn't. Am really quite gutted that this can't be done with a simple app.
It works on my Inc s. I've enabled call wait from my service provider, so when I'm on a call and someone else calls, I get a series of beeps with the other caller number or contact data flashed on my phone. I just have to accept, reject or ignore the second call and the first caller gets into hold... its all available on your phones too, you only need to enable it in call settings and of course, with your service provider too

That's the wrong way round. I have mine enabled for people calling me. But what I'm referring to with this thread is a notification to say that when I call someone else, I'm alerted to the fact that they're already on a call.
@Sabret00the
Wouldn't that be a function that the person you're calling, needs to enable with his service provider? I usually get a recorded message saying that the person you are calling is on another call... wait for him to respond, or hang up & dial later. The phone displays number busy... isn't that so? Or then I'm confused....
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA
Nope. It's a standard feature for Samsung's, Sony's and Nokia. If I ring from my IncS and someone is on the phone, it just rings normally. If I ring from a Samsung it states on screen that "the person you're dialling is on a call".

there are tons of threads and requests for this feature,like sms delivery report.Its a manufacture dependent feature.As far as i know it is called "gsm supplimentary service" n i guess on this situation when the user is busy on a call the gsm server sends a code to the phone n the phone then shows a toast notification.All nokia ,samsung and sony ericsson phone have that feature and htc , motorola and iphone doesnt have that I dont know it can be done by an app. may be .. by somethin in the "telephony.app" ... who knows since there is no developer interest in this and
the sms status report

microphones not working properly

Hello,
is anyone of you having problem with the microphones?
i am, and apparently a lot of other people are complaining on sony official forums!
my phone is brand new,never felt from any height,but still people are telling me that they having really hard times understanding what i am telling them!!
they are reporting muffled voice, that comes and goes, sometimes turning robotic or with statics background.
not to mention the ****ing second microphones, that when is enabled make impossible for the other person to understand me at all!!
in your opinion can it be a software issue of maybe something realetd to a bad sealing??from what is possible to read on the internet, is not so uncommon to find phones damaged from water
Try to disable microphone noise suppression option. It is located in settings / call settings.
