I'm loving this phone in all other respects, but the call quality sounds a bit muffled to me. Anyone else?
I'm coming from an HTC Inspire 4G. It wasn't the greatest in terms of call quality but I feel like it sounded better than my new LOG.
I was expecting bad call quality after reading reviews, but my call quality is excellent and never muffled. And I also get good service at work whereas my iPhone 5 usually had NO signal.

I had the same concern. However, this phone gives me the best signal reception and the call sound quality is exceptional. Sound so good, loud and clear from the builtin speaker.

Agreed...This phone has the best sound quality for phone calls that I've ever had.
Mine is excellent,actually the best sounding phone I have owned and coming from a S3,
Not a problem here.

Turns out the area I was in when I made this post just had incredibly poor reception. Call quality is great when I've got a proper signal!

Purchased the Amaze a few days ago and loving it...everything except the call quality. Voice calls sound tinny like I have a bad connection most of the time. In addition there is noticeable background hiss.
Has anyone else had this issue or do I have a bad unit (with a defective earpiece or sound hardware)?
Mine doesn't have this problem.. I haven't seen anyone else complain either. I would say do an exchange.

I think you've got a bad unit. I would rate the call quality on mine as excellent - on par with my BlackBerries.
To a discerning ear I could consider it tinny, I'd also throw in that it's pretty quiet, as well.
I do have to say that it is still very good.
I just got my Rezound and one of my only complaints is the call quality. It sounds very distorted. I wasn't sure if there was a mod or something I could flash to change or better the call quality.
Search is your friend.
Scroll down to almost the last post.
Thanks, I did a search and for some reason didn't see that. Anyways, tried it and calls still sound off. Im beginning to think that it's a speaker issue.
My first rezound had a bad ear piece speaker. Sound like the speak was blown out. The new phone I have is perfect. Exchange the phone.

my incall quality is great, it's the low speaker volume that sucks!
As a phone my Rezy has far and away the best performance for voice calls of any smartphone I've ever owned...ymmv.

Since my wife and I got our GS3s, we have noticed that sometimes when we call each other the quality is almost crystal clear. It's like we are standing in a room together.
It only happens on about 1 in 10 calls though.
Does anyone know what I'm on about?
We were both on Tmobile at the time. We are now on Orange and Three.
I've had nearly perfect reception and crystal clear voice quality on pretty much every call I've made and received. Granted I was on AT&T, so that might have something to do with it since you're on T-Mobile. So far I've never been disappointed with the in-call quality.
use the in call eq settings to enhance your calls to near crystal clear quality.
All these people having problems with their phone and mines been fine since day one lol excellent video recording audio, crystal clear voice calls and excellent still pics

This phone is HD Voice enabled. That's why reception is crystal clear. Also on HOX
I believe this will only work when both phones are hd voice compatible AND both phones are connected to cell towers that support it.
My brother and i both have gs3 and have not been able to demonstrate hd voice working and i believe its because of the cell towers/networks not the actual devices.

That is maybe because you both might be in same room still assuming you are miles away from each other !
Call quality is excellent.
I went to a show last night and took some videos.
The audio recording on this thing is terrible.
I go to a lot of metal shows, and have been able to capture the action beautifully in the past. This was not even close to a metal show in volume, and the audio sucked.
Coming from an Atrix 4g which handled loud recording like a champ, this is quite a let down.
I remember that video recording at shows worked best on any stock based rom for the Atrix. Trying it with Cm, the audio would come out crappy.
I think the reason it is so bad is because the mic sensitivity is way too high. Does anyone know how to reduce it?

Even semi loud recording is terrible... Wasn't sure if it was the app or the phone at the time.

im on the same boat at the moment, my S2 is a champ at it when it comes to loud audio recording and my OG is supposedly going to be my new vlog cam for the car, looks like ill have to invest in something different
There is a mod that was posted that'll enhance camera / video and audio recording. I've noticed a huge increase in quality in all 3 aspects. Check the dev section.

the last phone i had that could handle high quality recordings was a nokia n97 4 years ago, since then the 4 phones i had were crap compared.
I would recomend an external mic to record concerts, that's what i do.
here u have some info http://goo.gl/57vRX
could you post up a video for reference? i'm curious how the video itself looks.
i personally use my work phone (iphone 4s) which does great except for bass clipping. it is better to use a separate voice recorder (i use an Olympus WS-210S which works fantastic).
Here are some samples...
First is an Arkona show from last March. This was shot with the Atrix and the sound is amazing... for a phone.
Scroll to 1 min for when the loud stuff starts.

Good grief. The OG is absolutely TERRIBLE. It's a distortion fest.
I really think the mic gain needs to be turned down...

Thanks - that is pure crap. Much worse than anything I have ever heard.
LG fail.
Any one using the nexus 4 mode see any improvement in sound recording

I wonder if the boeffla sound app will help once we get a custom kernel you can control mic sensitivity

Everyone knows the One has great sound. Since I don't know anyone who currently owns the One and don't think I can get a real feel in-store, can current owners give me a comparative opinion?
My frames of reference are the Galaxy Note 10.1 stereo speakers and the Nokia N8.
Thanks!
I had the nexus 10, which I think was supposed to have the same speakers as the galaxy note series.
The One's speakers are much fuller in terms of range and soundstage. Highs are higher and lows are deeper.
The only positive aspect of the N10/Note's speakers were that they were front spacing, quality wise they were relatively crappy-sounding.
I'm very pleased with the speakers, I will admit I thought they would be a little louder but the sound quality is impressive. If you disable beats the volume is a little greater Imo. I'd try to find a demo unit and mess with it.

They're almost obnoxiously loud, but the quality is amazing. I don't want another phone with rear speakers.

They won't replace any headsets or speaker docks, but they have brought built in speakers from hideous to surprisingly acceptable. They're magnitudes better than the very very low bar that is the norm.

Agreed... I have to keep my ringer to half or so in the house because of the volume but I wouldn't have it any other way...
It blows away the Note 10.1, Nexus 10 speakers

I had to get a new alarm clock that slowly increases the volume of the alarm over 5 minutes. The standard alarm on the One scared the crap out of me in the morning on two occasions.
I agree with the others. The sound is loud but also clear. My GS3 speaker would get loud but that was only if it was facing away from you or if the sound was reflecting off of something. While it was loud it sounded really distorted. The speakers on the One are loud and don't sound like a teeny tiny cellphone speaker. They sound like decent laptop speakers.

:good:
Is amazing how good and crisp they sound. One of those things that you think is overhyped marketing.....and when you see it in action you don't want to get another phone with rear speaker. Crisp. Clear. If music played has stereo quality it comes out as it should. Obviously, these are small speakers, but for the size it's amazing.
I use my One to play music for my office floor. Rameses b. Not bad stuff. Check him out.
Excellent speakers.

I love the speakers, they are loud, but not overbearing, the quality is much better than most others phones I have heard. Im happy I dont have to cup my hand behind the phone anymore just to hear the sound when im watching a youtube video. all in all, I think its the fact that the speakers are in front instead of on the back, it makes for a better user experience IMO.:good:
My 2 year old can finally listen to "wheels on the bus" in stereo quality, praise the Lord!
