I had the same issue and what I found it is related with software, after try of so many rooms I finally had to go back to stock asiaretail thru a service center.

In OTA 3 Brasil retail its everthing okay... No problem with voice.

[Q] ICS Passion v9.0 -- Inconsistently Poor Call Quality

Hello gentlemen!
First of all, I want to thank neobuddy and everyone that he worked with on the ICS Passion ROM. I find it excellent and have been using it for the past week or so.
I do have a slight issue, though, and as I am not yet familiar with mobile development, I am not sure if the problem stems from my hardware or the software. I bought this Vibrant used, though in excellent condition. As soon as it arrived, I rooted it and installed ICS Passion on it. Therefore, I never actually used the stock software, and that is why I am unsure if this issue stems from the ROM or from the phone itself.
Anyway, my problem is that sometimes during a call, my voice will cut in and out very frequently. This occurs with various people and in various places, so it doesn't have anything to do with signal strength. I can hear the other person just fine. It also seems to only occur when I receive a call. Once I hang up and call the person back, they seem to be able to hear me just fine.
I suspect that this has something to do with one of the following:
1) Sound filtering and normalization. The way that the software handles the data that it receives from the microphone. If it was the microphone itself, I would expect this issue to be much more consistent.
2) Which network the phone uses during phone calls. I've gathered that H is for data transfer and 3G is for phone calls (for the most part). Is it possible that ICS Passion somehow fails to switch to the proper network when a call is received? This seems unlikely as I searched through the ICS Passion thread in the dev forum, but couldn't find an issue similar to mine.
Any insight would be appreciated, although I suppose if no one can help out I can just flash the stock and see if the problem persists. If it does, then I can only assume it's the phone.
Thanks!
try v 10 or v 10.6
Mute and then unmute your call. We've had this problem since cm7

Sweet, good to know, thanks. Do you know of a more permanent solution?

I'm afraid to upgrade to v10 because some people have been experiencing issues with their phones rebooting several minutes into the call. I may try it anyway, though.
Do you know if your problem is with incoming calls only?? That's where the issue seems to be, that the mute/unmute fixes. I put 10 on about a week ago, and am loving it. Put 10.5 on yesterday, and 10.6 today, so they are working on it. I think 10.6 might have fixed it for me, so I'm so happy. Thought Bionix was going to be the end of the line, I tried a couple of gingerbread roms, and had issues!

Been on v10 for a week and have not had the reboot problem. I've heard 10.6 has some problems but yeah the mute/unmute bug isn't that bad you get used to it

That's what it seems like. I have not had a single "you sound like you're underwater" issue for outgoing calls.
Thanks for the responses, everyone. I'm glad to find out that the problem isn't with the phone because I can't afford to replace it for a while. I guess I'll just wait a bit and hope that these slight issues get resolved in a more stable iteration.

Signal n Voice Clarity

Recently i hav flashed my rom to the new version of MiUi v4 WeUi v1.0. I find the signal strength to fluctuating up and down and even goes to NO SIGNAL some times. This never happened to be before cos i always have full signal in my area.
Also many people speaking through phone the other end that the voice clarity goes down and doesn't even able to hear the voice. But i tested with sound recorder that the mike is in perfect working condition.
What would be the cause of this guys.. Help me

[Q] Is Skype crackling for you?

I'ts only on ICS rom, before on GB rom it has never come out. I have terrible crackles during skype conservation.
For those who doesn't know what I'm talking about here is a short sample:
http://www.speedyshare.com/4MGV7/sample-crackles.wma
I have done a little research through Internet:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1600896
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1647711
So I'm not alone. The problem is connected with htc device using ICS soft. I don't know if it's soft related or skype related. Moreover I can say the same situation is in GTA 3 game, crackling all the time, it was mentioned in one of links above.
Does anybody have some idea how to deal with it? It's really annoying and skype is important peace for me.

Hey I also had a lot of problems with crackling speakers on ICS roms. on the thread of the custom rom that i use at the moment (mwakious) there were more people complaining about it. In his latest version he seemded to repaired it if you check the change log. i tried it for myself and i dont experience any problems any more. Maybe an idea to flash that rom? don;t know if you like it but at least you are not bothered with that crackling noise anymore.
Good luck!
It's funny because I use this rom all the time and person who has complaint about it was me . I have the newest version and still have these crackles. Have you done something special or the newest version has solved this problem for you?
'Temple Run' has it too.

Chances are your speaker is broken. I had mine replaced for this last year. I hear its pretty common with these

The 3d already has a problem with low in call volume, but if yours was louder, it could be hardware related. You could try this to increase it.

[Q] New Skype 4.0 Video Call Audio Issues

So Skype got updated to v4 lately. Everything about it looks and works great...
...except for video call.
It uses the "phone-calling" speakers instead of the "external" speakers for audio out, making it extremely small when you're holding it away from you as you're using it for video calls.
what the hell.
am i the only one with this issue?
unrooted stock Rogers RAZR XT910.
thanks.
edit: nvm. saw Skype's community board. lotsa devices having the same issue.

Nope, I'm seeing (uh, I mean hearing) the same thing with Skype. It's forced me to switch to Google Hangouts until the problem is resolved...
yeah hangouts has evolved, still buggy but better than skype
