I'm sure theres a couple of people who are expericing the same problem.'
anyways who here experience this
If you place the phone on your right ear to talk, the other side experience fade in and out voices. Alot of my callers say they cannot hear me if I hold the phone on my right right
but if I switch to the left ear they hear me crystal clear. anyone expericing this?
+1 here.
i suspect it's because the design, the position of the mic (the one receives our voices) get easily covered when in your right hand (partially if not whole) and it just can't pick up our voice.
yeah thats sad. I hope they do something about that such as if its detected in right ear it cancel that second speaker.
+1 my peoples hate my new phone... they say i sound like iam in a tin box... then they hang up on me!!!
same here whenever I use the speaker..sucks!!
I have this same problem. I use the phone on my right and people say I get super quiet.
Then I switch the phone to the left and it's fine, but after like a minute my voice goes down to super quiet and I have to switch again.
Hmph.

Hey guyz i was just wondering u know you put it on loud speaker, the person on the other line always hears an echo of his voice and they can immediatly recognize they're on loud speaker + it's kinda annoying hearing ur own voice. Is there anyway through this? I tried lowering the volume.. no use :/

I think it is either the distance of the phone from your mouth or the phone application itself! I think you do get this even on the normal desk phones, so does the N9210!
my bet is feedback from mic to speaker
all devices which have a mic and a speaker can get feedback
but most likely it would be something they could fix in the software
cybermate it's not Me who i hear the echo of.. the person talking to me always hears His echo and it's annoying to the people i talk to and sometimes id rather talk by speaker because im like typing or something ..
Yup, every time I use speaker phone I am told to get my head out of the bucket.
because speaker phone inc the vol the mic can recieve the sounds comming from the speaker
thats why they can hear themselfs
every time i have my head in a bucket while speaker with people on my xda2 people tell me to disable speakerphone
yeah same here !! shouldn't they have THOUGHT of that at least !! it is important to some people !
I have the same problem any fixes for it.
Yes, me too on my QTEK 9100. Unfortunatley most of my day is spent in long conference calls and the speakerphone is a must! Anyone with any fixes please let me know.
When ever I use it people complain that they can a) hear themselves and b) can hear alot of hissing sounds
Hi all. Do u have this same problem with your x1 like me? When someone is ringing me and i answer the phone then sometimes i cant hear hear his voice and he cant hear me either in 1st few seconds. After 2, 3seconds is normal.
I tryed few differend roms and this same problem. Is it something wrong with the phone, or this is normal in x1????
please raply yes or no.
Yes it's normal in X1, no there is nothing wrong with the phone.
I have the same problem. I am used now and wait for about 2 seconds before I say 'hi' When I call someone or when I get called and press the green button, it takes a few seconds before the person hears me. I think that it's normal in X1, but it is quite irritating. My opinnion about X1 is that the phone is really nice to use different applications but the calling performance is below average.
These are few things that I don't linke about the x1 (beside the problem that its mentioned in this topic):
- calling volume is too high, even when I set the volume to lowest level. People next to me can hear the person who I am speaking. (So, I don't mention the speaker on the left-bottom, but on the top.)
- The speaker on the bottom is really on a bad place. You can easily cover the speaker with your finger or handpalm. If that happens, you can't hear the sound.
- The microphone of the standard headset is really bad quality. The person can't hear me well.
- When I put the headset on and someone is calling me, the ringtone rings both on the headset and the speaker of the x1 on the bottom.
thank u very much. i`m glad someone reply on my post.
Every single time I talk on the phone, my gf (she's the only one I call, everyone else I just text, including my parents) say she can barely hear me if I don't have the phone oriented just perfectly. If I move it like a 1/2 inch further away from my mouth, she says something almost immediately. Has anyone else noticed anything like this? Is there a way to boost the sensitivity, or the mic volume, or something like that? A workaround would be to get a bluetooth earpiece, but I dunno if I want to get one just to use it for like a half hour a day, if that.

Options:
1) Talk Louder.
2) Get married to her. Then you won't want to talk to her at all
Sorry. I don't have anything constructive to say ... just being a smart-ass.
Lol... Yeah, if anyone that knows me read #1 they would laugh, apparently I already talk too loud.
I've gotten this problem as well. One peculiar thing I've noticed is that the phone uses the microphones you wouldn't think it'd use while you talk.
In normal phone conversations, my Droid X uses the microphone on the back - the one next to the speaker. I used to hold the phone in such a way that it'd cover that bit; after I gave the phone a bit of space between it and my hand, my voice has gone through much better.
Similarly, when on speakerphone my Droid X uses the mic that's on top of the phone next to the headphone jack. So instead of leaving my phone right side up on the table, i turn it around so the top faces me. Much better results.
I wonder if there's a way to select which mic to use in what mode. Or perhaps an app to select the microphones is in order?
Wait...people use this to talk on?!
But yeah...when I do nobody has any problems hearing me. Granted, I put them on speaker 90% of the time.
I did a quick google search and saw that someone mentioned this in the comments on another forum. Maybe a common issue?

Ugh...posted twice...sorry :-(
Turn your phone to the back to the camera is facing you, put the speaker next to the camera against your ear, do you very faintly hear some kind of static coming from it? Mine does that but I have no cllue why...
Is it noticeable when playing a video/music without putting it directly to your ear?
and is it noticeable when using headphones?
Some speakers pick up radio waves.... And speakers also make static when any type of airwave data passes thru the speaker...
**try putting ur phone right next to a computer speaker, while sending/ receiving a text... Bet you'll here some static..

I noticed this too, the earpiece is supposed to be shielded from the RF. Never heard this on any phone I had since my nokia 5190.
No one listens to their phone like that, so why should it matter...
And no, I don't hear this. Maybe you left you phone in a bad place and something happened to the speaker?
Its big brother reprogramming the neurons in your brain!!!
I just realized I sounded like Steve Jobs in my last reply: "No one listens to their phone like that, so why should it matter..."
I need a cocktail, or few...
I've had this since day one. Not a big deal. It only happens while in a call and it's so faint I don't notice it anymore
my g1 used to do that
just radio interference
I can only barely hear it when the screen is on...
I could care less, no real issue that I can think of.

its the ocean dude!
OMG... I was doing this and thought I looked pretty stupid and then an email came through! Nearly made me go deaf! Ouch!
I tried it and couldn't hear a thing. But maybe I've just attended too many concerts...
Good find, yeah I hear it

I misread the op's post. I have interference coming through the normal earpiece you use for phone calls.
On a side note, google talk has a bug where it will play the alert you have set for it through the ear piece when you are in a phone call instead of making a descrete beep. Almost made me deaf today while on a call.
I haven't heard it since I flashed v5
Still flashing , thanks to odin & tw
Anyone else experiencing super low microphone volume when using hangout calls on speakerphone/video calls? The other person i'm calling says they can barely hear me.

yes, very much so. I may have found a weird workaround as this was annoying me for some time. You must leave the call screen up and let the first couple rings happen with speakerphone off. Then switch to speakerphone and do not leave the screen or turn off the call screen until the call is initiated. After that mess that i stumbled upon, i could be heard much better when making a speakerphone call with hangouts. Also, make sure not to cover both the front speakers or the mic in the back. Basically you must hold the phone in your hands as I believe laying it down on either face will obstruct mics.... Obviously a flaw that should be worked out I would hop with software or hangouts updates. I have opened a complaint thread on the google hangouts forums. I suggest you go there and explain that you have the problem too so that it may be looked at a bit more...
Thanks, posted on the Hangout support forum, so one else replied and said they have the same issue as well. Unfortunately though, I can't get your trick to work for me, super low mic volume unless I put my mouth right next to the top speaker grill. Hopefully this gets fixed, I think my wife is tired of seeing my chin during video calls.
I'm experiencing the same problem but with WhatsApp calls. It also happen on normal phone calls where there's no sound coming or going out, have to hang up and try the call again.
Anyone notice the speakers are only good at 100%.. Lower it to 90-80% and I can barely hear them, standing at about 1ft - 1.5ft
No news on this? Renders speaker calls on Hangouts, Viber etc useless.
Also, where on Google Forums did you post?
