Basically 2 people have complained that they couldn't hear me properly on the phone. I'm talking at the same level I did on my old phone (htc diamond 2) and I never had any problems with that. Is there anyway to increase the mic volume when in call?
Thanks
I had the same problem and a simple reboot worked for me

Hi guys, I've had my Hero about a year now. The other day, all of a sudden my speaker seemed to stop working. I thought, oh great, it's a hardware bust. I then tried a call and the sound came out fine. That is the only sound working. Everything works with my earphones plugged in. Any advice?
Any ideas guys, I'm pretty desperate here -_-
It could be something wrong with your media volume? I know when you plug in headphones there is a different volume setting? Try a sound volume manager like audio manager .. there is different
Does the problem replicate itself on different roms. etc.. also what rom are you using.
sorry, I know this is basic
Thankyou for the reply man .
Unfortunately I know it is not down to a volume problem because also the ringer volume does not make any sounds.
I am currently on an ancient Floyo ROM as I haven't been able to flash over the last few months. I'm currently waiting for a Froyo Sense with working camera or a reasonably stable GingerBread ROM.
Did you test a handsfree calling? Try making a call and enabling mobile speaker (there should be an option pressing menu button while you are calling).
HTC Hero, as many mobile phones, has two different speakers, one in the back used to play music and loud sounds, and another one on the front to make calls. I think your back speaker is not working and that's why you can't hear anything except voice when you call.

Thankyou, I did not know there were two different speakers, although I suppose it makes sense when you think about it!
Tried what you said and my back speaker is definitely knackered - may have just persuaded myself to get a Z >_>
cheers
Hi,
I'm on Galaxy S2; Android 2.3.3; KE7.
When using headphones on my device the volume is great for music, videos, youtube, and even skype. However for some reason it's only around half of that level when calling (even tough the volume is set to maximum).
I've done some google research and found out that it's quite a common issue with this phone. A workaround has been found by using some codes. However, it is not a permanent solution.
I've found a post which says that someone had called Samsung and they acknowledged the issue and will send them a new phone where this issue has been fixed.
1) Has anyone found a permanent solution to increasing the volume of the call when on headset?
2) I've also found a post where someone says that apparently Samsung will fix this issue in Android 2.3.4. Can you confirm this? When will this be available? If it's longer than 1-2 weeks I will have to send my phone for a refund/exchange (although I love it).
Your advice on the above is much appreciated.
Hi, I've done some further research and I think I've found the solution:
First make sure that your sound is on (as you can't access the volume settings in the silent mode) -> press the Menu button -> Settings -> Sound -> Volume -> and then increase the 'Incoming call' volume.
I've just tested the call volume when on headset and it has been increased to a more that enough level. Great. My love to this phone is growing
Now I have to figure out how to disable the camera shutter sound....but that's a question for another post...
It seems that the solution above worked for some time but now my phone started to deliver very low call volume when on headphones. Maybe it's due to the Android update, I don't know.
However I found that the issue is related to the media volume. For example when I listen to music and turn the volume low then this affects the incoming call volume and it becomes low as well.
The solution to this problem seems to be: make sure that the music volume is max before you want to make a call. I've just tested it an is seems to do the trick.
It would be great to hear to another solutions to this problem for unrooted phones.
Heard this app works well,

guys sorry about posting again, but this thread is continues to the old one but with a different problem.
note: i tried to delete/close the old thread but i didn't know how.
any way, my problem is the volume of the person i am speaking to is extremely low
any way i tried many ways:
*apps like volume+ and equalizers.
*changing volume from service mode.
*changing kernel
*changing firmware
*updating firmware to the latest official
the funny thing
i use grooveip to call through google voice
the app has an option to increse speaker volume
when i increesed the volume i started hearing the voice a bit louder and then i noticed that the volume is coming from the back cover.
when i flip the mobile to the other side and i put my ear on the cover, i can hear the voice a little better but still extremely low
note : mobile lout speaker working correctly and when i plug the headphone i can hear very clear and loud. so the problem is only while i am on the ear speaker
i am confused, is it a hardware or a software problem ?
if the speaker is broken will there be voice coming out from the speaker ?
please advice and thanks in advance :good:

For a long time and at different official/ developer firmware I am struggling with this phone.
1) does not work otg, cdla.
2) Very quiet call speaker and microphone it is necessary to put a palm so that the interlocutor can hear me.
I'll do without otg but help me fix at least the sound. Picked build.prop, something rewrote in mixer_path
With the edited mixer_path, the volume seems to have risen, but now it's quiet again.
Can I change the speaker? I do not mind if it helped.
