CM7.1 speakerphone echo? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
maybe someone can help, i have been using the cyanogenmod 7.1 for the last couple of days and my only bug so far is that whenever im on a call, where im using the speakerphone, the other person complains of hearing themselves, like echoing. I am running cm7.1 with glitch v12 beta, and ed05 radio. Anyone experiencing the same and have a fix? or anyone else running cm7.1 without the issue (please post kernal and radio used)?
i really like the rom and would have to hate to downgrade but i really need the speakerphone. Thanks in advance for any help guys!

So nothing can be done? Can you give your opinion on a good stable Rom....

If you're hung up on speaker phone go stock. But Pool Party suits all my needs and wants out of a rom.
good day.

Does pool party have the same speakerphone issue?

Did u try to modify dsp settings on speaker?

Yup i tried everything, seems it's a known issue and can't be fixed until source code is released....

Ya. All Mtd roms have the issue...I brought it up to ssewx in the glitch kernel and he took the job.. He is currently working on Bluetooth echo, speakerphone echo, and 3.5 jack echo.. I believe he has made progress on Bluetooth echo so far.. Don't flock to him with questions off era's as it takes from his coding time, and you will be reminded of the first rule of cm.. NO CTA'S.. But if you like. Go thank the man

My girlfriend is addicted to speakerphone (annoying to me) but she also doesn't like the touchwiz interface. Big thumbs up to the devs putting time into fixing this issue, it'll make my life much easier once it's fixed.

---

So, so far there is no fix for this? Because I just went from Mik Shifted G to CM7 and it is SOOOO much better, but I have to take calls a lot and I literally can't hear the other person at all, so i had to go back to mik. Until theres a fix looks like I'm stuck.

I'm having the same problem on my AT&T Galaxy S3. Person on other end of line experienced terrible echo when I turn speakerphone on. I don't have the issue on my stock ICS ROM only on the custom JB ROM's I have tried: CM 10 M2, AOKP M1, AOCP newest build etc... I'm assuming all these ROM's share some common code. It's definitely the the case as I have tried taking it off and on with no effect. If you have found a solution., I'm all ears. Thanks!

Actually, a solution has been posted over and over and over again, more than a few times by myself. But, I also know that the forum search tool here doesn't work very well - I personally can't stand using it. Therefore, rather than grumble (much) about having to repeat myself again, here it is.
The speakerphone echo is caused by a combination of too high of a boost in the speakerphone call audio plus too high of a microphone gain in speakerphone mode. Both of these can be adjusted in a few places, but my preferred method is to use the Home Screen -> hit the menu button -> "System Settings" -> "Device Options" -> "In-Call Volume Controls" path.
Once you've got that open, adjust your "Speakerphone Volume" setting down to 1. Some people prefer 0. 2 will almost certainly cause echo. 3 will give you echo with severe distortion and probably melt your eardrums while causing a significant space-time anomaly in your fridge which will immediately consume all your beer, sending it back to 1955. You've been warned.
Next, adjust your speakerphone mic gain down some. I've found that 14 is a good value. Some may prefer slightly more or less. I've found that anything above 19 usually results in an echo. You'll just have to play with this one. If you have it above, say, 25, then you will almost certainly get some echo along with over-modulation, and the kernel will freak out and send an email to your parents and grandparents with your entire collection of nasty sheep porn attached. You've been warned.
Finally, make sure you hit OK, or all these settings will not be applied. They *should* stick after a reboot. Mine do.
I've made a blog post about this so that maybe a Google search will turn up some usable results for you all. Here it is: http://blog.efpophis.net/2012/11/speakerphone-echo-on-samsung-fascinate.html

Oops my bad... I thought this was an S3 discussion. I appreciate the solution thought. I wish I had those options in my phone so I could alter them. If so I'm not finding them, thanks!

Awesome. Thanks for the helpful information and link. The image in the blog post was helpful so that I knew exactly what settings screen I was looking for. For me, I needed to go to "Settings > [Device] Advanced > [Volume Controls] In-Call Volume Controls". Those settings seem to have done the trick for me.
Thanks again!
