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:

I upgraded from the O2 XDA mini to the Orange M3100 and use the same Sony headset and can't get the voice tags to repeat in the headset after they have been recognised. It worked fine with the O2 phone, you pressed the headset power switch briefly, said the name and the phone played the match back to the headset. This new phone simply shows the name on the screen and repeats through the phone speaker. Tried to pair it again but still the same, anyone had this and found a fix?
As an update I was using the voice dial function the other day sat in the car and could hear the recorded name in the headset but it's reall quiet. The previous HTC phone was a lot louder so is there anyway to increase the volume of the spoken voice tag in the headset, I have the headset volume up full but still it's too low to hear properly.
I've seen some other posts on getting stereo headsets working with this Orange device. Can anyone help me find a way of getting the phone to increase the volume of the repeated voice tag in my bluetooth headset please?
Well there are only 263 posts re. Bluetooth and headset problems in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285419
If you can't find any answers there, there are about another 10 threads about headset and bluetooth problems, about 15 threads on Voice Command problems and you combine the two and you have a nightmare
... almost makes you want to use a wired headset and hand dial.
Trust me, I thought this would be easy.........
The previous HTC device I had (Wizard with O2) worked fine, press headset button, speak, phone confirms back and then dials. This one has such a low volume that you can't hear what it says. I read through a load of the posts but they all seem to be trying to solve problems I don't have, for me the headset and phone works, the TomTom GPS v6 also works, the TCP video software is almost there and all of this without having to hack any programes.
I tried it again today and before when I thought it was very quiet it was in fact the speaker on the phone I was hearing on the seat next to me, the headset does not reply the voice tag.
Surely others must be using BT headsets with this phone and use the voice dial tags when driving etc?

I don't have these issues so don't know the exact thread but I have read that many ppl are having the same problems as you. I think they have solved all but incomming notifications - so go looking and you should find.
I was sleepily switching SIM cards and accidentally poked the sim tool into the noise reduction mic.
I'm sure I felt a little click or pop and I'm obviously worried I've damaged something.
Is there any sure fire way to test its definitely working properly other than just making calls?
I pulled up the diagnostics menu but I can't see anything relevant in there to test, is there anything in there perhaps not immediately obvious that could help me see if it's functioning properly?
Thanks!
Well, now I don't feel so stupid for doing the same thing.
Guess we are three.... any findings??

Well either it's an ongoing problem, or there's three stupid people. I'm gonna go with ongoing problem.
Only findings I have is that the phone's function doesn't seem to be impacted at all.
I've not noticed any issues, calls seem to be fine!
I didn't find anything else concrete, just an article somewhere talking about the diagnostics menu where I left a comment. The author came back to me and had also done something similar (it's a real issue! ) and said his was fine and it "probably" hadn't done any lasting damage
Good to know, thanks!

and here is the 5th stupid. :silly:
Yet another. I just did the same on Galaxy E5. A bit worried although nothing seems broken.
A 6th stupid
I did the same too...
Well, fortunately I'm not one of you, stupid people D ) but maybe I have a tip to test the microphone.
Open the voice recorder and set the interview mode (I have set the Italian language on my phone, so I don't know the exact english name of the app and of the function, sorry): using that you can record the voice of two people (one in front of the other) using the 2 microphones, with a visual feed of what mic is recording the sound (you have the visual feed in the play mode, too).
Test it!
Thank for the advise Glaucos, I ran the voice recorder and luckily both microphones appear to be in good order even though I poked the hole of the noice cancellation mic pretty hard.
Hey guys, I'm with the same problem haha, someone poked my mic and I don't know how to check it.
My galaxy A3 2016 has the Samsung Recorder, but I'm unable to change to the interview mode. Any thoughts of another recorder I can download?
Thanks in advance!
Working solution for testing mic (works for both the mics )
Dial *#0283#
This will take you to mic test menu, offering 4 options i.e. rcv_1st mic
Rcv_2nd mic
Earphone
Stop.
Generally second mic is the mic on the top(noise cancellation mic)
Choose the option and speak into it. It will be reapting your sound. If it does then its working else you have damaged it.
Choosing the option channels the mic and speaker into something like mic to speaker system where you speak into mic and hear the same thing out of the speaker at the same time.
I have tested this on my galaxy note 5

Thanks! Worked on my A50 with android 10. Droped the phone to the water and I was unsure if the second mic was working ok.
Hello, first of all my english isn't good enough to describe all i want to say, i hope it's enough understandable.
My device xperia z3 (D6653) has a problem on speaker with incoming calls and activate loudspeaker phone during phone calls, the ringtone is too low.. as well as my speaker in phone calls.. the music is working fine and loud as it should be (both speaker work, top and bottom) but when somebody call me the phone rings too low even though every volume level is set to max! it's even more weird because when i go to "phone ringtone" like i would to set a new one, when i play the ringtone i already put or any another one the volume is normal as it should be and both speakers work.. but the problem still goes on when somebody calls me the bottom speaker only working and the phone sound is too low to hear of course as i mentioned when i active phone speaker during a call the bottom speaker still only working and i can't hear the caller while no sound or noise near me (quite place)!!
please help me, i am really very very disappointed.. i am missing most of my incoming calls because of this, and i can't hear the when loudspeaker is activated in calls..
P.S: the phone sound overall become a bit low but pretty noticeable after lollipop update or whatever i don't know, it was more louder when i bought it new, btw the speaker issue is remained the same when it was new though..
Build number; 23.4.A.0.546
Thanks.

You will have better luck asking here:

That's where the experts for your device are located.
hello guys , sorry for the break , I update tonight via ota the ZenWatch 2 and I wanted to ask you a question : " You should also note that in the call if you turn up the volume this is " scraping " and distort???"speaker " scratch " in a high call volume ( maximum possible volume)
Thanks all!!!!!
I just experienced it too. Just seems to happen when in a call, alarms and notifications sound fine. I will try to play music with it and report back.
I 've tried to listen to the music , and this feels very well and especially with a larger volume than calls ! I simply believe that the calls have this "problem "
There is a crackling sound only during calls. Any idea ??
I have also used music and alarm sounds fine, on calling volume get's distorted.
Same problem here
have you also noticed that although the volume of the speaker is at maximum , is lower in the call than when you listen to music ? For me it is very difficult to use in the car , because the volume of the speaker , is covered by the noise of the machine !
Yes music plays loud but call volume is average.
Do you have to have a phone with marshmallow to use the speaker

Found a solution for the volume in calls:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65830574&postcount=3
I am experiencing the exact same problem , speaker works fine with music at highest volume , but it is distorted on calls on every volume step after the half volume , as volume is increased distortion also increases
One more thing i have noticed , whenever i talk through the watch , the other side can hear their own voice as an echo sound , do u guys have the same problem or only i have this , coz if i only have such a problem i shud initiate a replacement as i just purchased the watch
Anyone ?
