call sound quality bad or good? - HD2 General

i've readed, that in some test say some user, that the quality of the call sound a bad.
it's true or not?
the HD2 in in my opinion a gread smartphone, and i think, if over 50% sad, that the call sound quality are not bad, i buy it one.
but if the call sound are bad, i take an other htc-phone.
thanks in advance!

Did you try to flash any other radio ?

Tested on Tmobile U.S.
Sound quality from earpiece was good and above average in loudness. IMHO compared to other WinMo phones.

i don't have currently the HD2-smartphone.
If on other roms/radios i have a better call sound quality, let men know there name! (i know, i will lost my guarantee)

I`m not going to give you a specific ROM ... just you have to read some topics in ROM Development section, to find which ROM would suits you best. Read user opinions etc ... look for suggested radio versions for custom roms, do some tests ..
This is pretty much how it works
I found a rom the best for my needs after few other roms tested ... When I stack with this rom, than testing few radios with this particular rom ... and found the set (rom + radio) which is the best for my needs, gives the best battery life, sound quality etc (in my opinion).

cause it's a windows mobile phone. lots of wm phones have this problem

I do think it's odd that such a fantastic phone suffers from such call quality issues. My previous Symbian based phones had much better call quality. That's not to say that I'd ever go back to Symbian after owning the HTC HD2, but I do find it to be the Achilles' heel of the device.

Thus far, there are only three radio I've found that won't brick us, and the stock radio is the best for me.

There should be plenty of conversation over there as to which is best, but each cook will tell you which they prefer you to use. In actuality, I just test each one for a day and watch to see if my battery or call quality improves.
We can have the exact same device but use different radios for different areas of the country/carriers, so it's impossible to really say which is best until you try them.

Best Radio that compromises between sound quality and battery life

Hey guys, just want to know which radios are you guys using. I'm using darkstones latest build, had 2.11 installed last night but battery life was horrendous. Today switched to 2.10 on the advice of some members. However sound quality during call was bad, could hear static.
Which radios do you guys use that strikes a balance between both? Or is there no compromise?

Speaker volume too low

I'm praying for someone who can solve my problem.
I LOVE my n1 but I dont hear it when Im outside home.
I surfed tens of forums searching for the solution and there is no dsp manager or lvh that has been able to solve the problem.
can someone help please?
p.s. i heard that maybe cyanogenmodded rom on gingerbr could solve the problem but i heard also that it uses dsp manager which wasnt working on my n1
Are you using a custom rom?
Most custom roms have an audio boost over stock. And maybe that DSP Manager would only work if the ROM supported it, so that could be why nothing has worked sof ar if you are on stock.
I think you're looking for the vibrate option
the audio boost is present in most custom ROMs such as cyanogen. so you really should have no problem if you use that. i know my volume has increased very well using cyanogen so i dont have any complaints anymore.
i do remember in cyan 5.0.8 that the audio hack was TOO loud and people complained, so the dev's reduced it to somewhere in the middle. perhaps you can go try that old ROM and see if that helps just as a test. if so maybe you could edit your kernel to match that old hack? might be a lot of work though...
i'm using one of the gingerbr roms from this forum
so you'r suggesting me to wait for the cyano's gingerbr?
p.s. today i bought an ideos for my old father ((( its LOUDER AND LOUDER than my n1 (((((
Unfortunately, you will have to live with crappy HTC speakers I am afraid. Rom's don't have a significant difference - I mean it will still sound crap :/, I don't know why HTC keep doing this.

dont say me so! please! i heard about people who solved and had to REDUCE volumes beacause the loudnes made the speaker clip instead!
i wanna clip my speakeeerrrrr!
Try enomthers Official ROM with the AudioMod kernel. I now run my incall volume at 50% where on the stock ROM I had it maxed all the time. The speaker phone is actually useful now as well. Besides this excellent perk its also a very fast and stable ROM with lots of features that I've found I can't do without. I ran a Gingerbread ROM for a week and was so happy when I switched back.

do you know if it's possible to flash only the audio hack? i'm just running stock cyanogen 6.1.1 and i would like to play around with the audio hack. can i flash it somehow, or does it have to be built into the ROM? and also, i have a build environment set up, so could i just play around with the kernel code for the hack, and compile my own kernel for testing it out?
Can anyone suggest any 'good' solution? kernel or otherwise to fix this $#@$# 'bug' of low in-call volume in Nexus One??
Would really appreciate all the help!

That's my problem from the beginning. Speaker is crap and there is nothing you can do. Tried different ROMs and nothing changed it.

[Q] Which ROM? Good FM reception AND battery life

I am currently using Samsung Galaxy Tab as my primary phone but unfortunately it doesn't offer any FM radio support. So I'm in search of a HD2 Android ROM which can satisfy the following criteria:
1) With acceptable FM Radio support
- MIUI's FM Radio reception is really bad
2) With battery life comparable to original HD2.
- I currently charge my HD2 once every two to three days because the primary usage is one to two hours of FM Radio. I've tried a couple of Android ROMs, but they drain battery pretty fast, sometimes the battery get completely drained in 10 hours without new apps installed. I'd be very grateful if someone could recommend a ROM with a normal battery life.
3) In-call recording (optional)
4) normal Bluetooth drain (optional)​
Any help would be greatly appreciated
1) FM radio is problem (in WinMo too). My HD2 has worse reception than the cheapest mp3 player but .. I use build-in radio from CM7 ROMs and it´s better than nothing. You can try it..
2) In my opininon 3 days is utopia if you want to use your device reasonably. Anyway I had the smallest battery drain with charsinghs unofficial CM7 nightlies.
3) I have not found any useable yet ..
4) I beleive that "60mA battery drain" issue in non-Sence builds will be solved soon
good FM reception

Okay. Very funny.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
pretty bad radio, ain't it? I have a pound shop radio with ten times the reception of this piece of, well, piece of not-good-radio!
I personally feel tht theres no rom out there with perfect radio reception
It's perfectly possible to obtain perfect FM radio on the HD2, but only by streaming the station via the internet - no hiss or crackles that way!
Yeah I use my age old Nokia XpressMusic phone for radio while I'm out and about. The HD2 has a really bad FM receiver it seems. You always have to be positioned correctly just so it won't 'hiss & crackle'.

[Q] "Best" SD Rom?

Hi everyone,
I bought a relative new EU HD2 for my school project, because we want to develop an android application. WP7 looks like an interesting OS, I want to give it a chance and so I want to use a SD-Android (for a while!?). There are many threads about NANDroid like Recommend a NAND Rom? or Best daily use NAND ROM ?, but I haven't find one about SD-Android.
I saw 3 types of Roms, CyanogenMod- , MIUI-, and Sense-Roms. HTC Sense looks very beautiful, but I've heard about graphic glitches and "low" batterylife. What's the difference between CM and Miui?
Must have:
stable Wifi
stable 3G
~2 days of battery life (moderate use)
german language
good performance
good speech quality
Nice to have:
HTC Sense
Bluetooth
720p record
good camera quality
GPS
Which rom are you using? Do you use HTC Sense? And if not why? I know that I'm not the 1st one who ask for recommendations, but there are a lot of different roms and I'm totally overwhelmed by the variety ^^.
Thanks in advance!
