I have a problem with my HTC One Max and my Plantronics Legend.
When in call people say they can't understand me because it's too loud.
In technical terms it's called peaking.
Is there a way to decrease bluetooth mic input when in calls?
My push to talk app zello sounds perfectly fine where it is as I tweaked it's recording down a bit.
I'm on Stock (Rooted) Kit Kat.

My dad and I both have this phone and the legend. Neither one of us have this issue. Do you have the latest firmware on the legend?

I've updated the firmware twice... Even swapped it for another at best buy to see if it was the headset.
I went back to my epic 4g touch and it works fine with no complaints on the other side.
I've tried both JB and Kit Kat versions on the HTC One Max with the same results in complaints that the
other side of the conversation can't understand me.
I'm thinking about the problem and I'm wondering if the Aslamixer program by skvalex can edit the input control volume of the bluetooth...
If so what control do I need to edit for it.

Oh. So you can resync it by turning it off and laying it flat.....then turn it on and don't touch it for five seconds. That's a quick fix. My permanent fix was to disable those Damn smart sensors.

I have the same issue. I flashed Virtuous yesterday and now all in call volumes are super quiet.
Look for a file called "Sense4.0_InCall_Vol_Fix.zip"
It fixed mine.

^^^ So all your audio is very low, just not your call volume? Media volume is pretty low on the 3d, but my phone volume was VERY low after flashing ICE. After doing the in_call.zip fix, my media volume is still low, but my phone volume is back to what it was under 2.3*.
Maybe a thread title change?

My speaker has be good without an issue (knock on wood) but ever since I flashed an ics rom like few days later all of a sudden I can't hear ppl on the other end really

FWIW, I'm using Newts RC3. If you haven't given his ROM a shot, might be worth a try. It could still be a bit louder, but it went from unusable to workable.

change rom
I would try a different rom, mean rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466362
is an awsome rom and use chads kernal qualcom 1a will allow you to use beats which can help get youur media volume higher and cleaner. But watch your speaker like always if you think its pushing to hard it probly is.
Is there a setting in your rom to boost the volume? My old desire had that.
weird. i have leedroid on mine and it's perfect.
my mate got an evo 3d, i s-off'ed it etc and restored my nandroid and deleted what he didn't want etc....and his is nearly silent. Brand new phone so i doubt it's a blown speaker. Very odd.
I was wondering if theres anyway to make this phone ring through the head phone jack when I have them hooked up. Right now whenever this phone is hooked up to my radio, and I get a call, I dont hear it because the ringtone plays through the phone instead of the radio....

I have three G3's and a N2 and they all do this.
I have never seen a way to fix it. It doesn't really bother me anymore, but at my old job when I listened to streaming audio all day it really pissed me off......
Mine actually play through both the headphones AND the phone, so I guess thats a little different problem but it sucked at work when I didn't want other people thinking all I did was text all day...LOL

My problem is that when my boss calls me at work, I don't hear it because I'm working. That's one of the reasons I hook my phone up to my radio. I'm sure there's a mod or app out there, I just haven't found it yet.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk HD
I have not personally tested this, but Soundabout Pro from the Play Store is the app that I have seen recommended to solve audio routing issues on S3 and Note 2.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...nk.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix.pro&hl=en
in the market place there is an app called "soundabout" has tons of features can even force the media player to play through the mono blue tooth signal.
there is a free version but you'll need the paid version to do what you are wanting to do I believe.

My girlfriend and I both have Rezounds she however likes to talk with hers between her face and shoulder while busy doing other things. When she does so she sounds very distant and barely audible. Is there anyway to anyway to get around this? She is rooted running CleanRom DE 1.4 if that helps.
I've had multiple cln rezounds and everyone of them I've had, ive gotten complaints about my voice going in and out, unfortunately i think it's just how the rezound was made.

I think you should try updating to either OTA or global firmware and trying some different roms based on those. If it only gets halfway better that would probably still be a big difference. It won't fix a hardware issue but just software may make some difference.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
The problem is that the rezound uses two mics and a proximity sensor to tell when your face is right up against it. Too much movement of the phone and it switches between modes...causing the audio to sound super compressed for a couple seconds.
Get her a Bluetooth she can hide under her hair

I had the same problem with the mic and Bluetooth. I found turning off voice privacy worked for me.

As soon as I have the chance I am AT LEAST going to get her onto the global update. I think while I am at it I might as well s-off her phone before that maybe get her on a decent new rom.
I wonder if using one of the asop roms where you need to tweak the proximity sensor anyway if there is something in doing that which could help? *shrug*
When it comes to using a Bluetooth she has one but she never thinks about it so she rarely wears hers.

I tried the voice privacy and haven't noticed a big difference maybe a little bit but a little bit is better than nothing I suppose. Thanks for the suggestion.
So I have had bluetooth problems with this phone sine day one.. On all my roms and even after getting a replacement phone. I also have used 3 different bluetooth headsets on it.. Is this just me or a wide spread problem?

I did have some problems before and most of the time it was fixed by increasing the max frequency while screen was off ( I was using viper rom or meanbean), I don't know what rom you are having trouble with and also Bluetooth is really sensitive to interference specially in open spaces, I work outside and I've noticed that if I wave my hand right next to my handset while on a phone call, I get the static and crackling noise you might be referring to, but if I'm in my house I dont get the same result... What rom are you using? Kernel? Scheduler? Or app to set your frequencies? I'm on cm 10.1 and this is my second replacement which doesn't like over clock without the kernel stabilizer made by Viperboy and I'm currently using Komodo rls 30, I don't have that static anymore... :good:
Hatkalte 1.3.2... But it happens on all roms. Also it crackles and then disconnects and then reconnects.. And then cycles again.. It's so annoying.

Ok, my bluetooth died at the end and would not be recognized nor recognize any device that I had previously paired with my phone so I had to use VipeRuu and got it replaced, this is my second replacement after that bluetooth failure... Good luck, you might have a hardware issue like mine was, I won't be surprised if in a couple days it dies completely just like my original evo lte, have you tried stock rom?
Sent from my EVO
I've had issues as well. The best performance I had was on an aosp rom. I was able to walk a crossed 8 bays and through a door and still pick up my music playing. I've noticed sometimes while doing yard work that the music would be very choppy. My buddy has an lte and the same LG tone headset and has the same problems. Hopefully when I get my new s4 my problems will be solved. I'll report back when I verify if it is the phone or the headset or just bluetooth in general.

Correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that the 'loudspeaker' is made up of both the top and bottom speakers for stereo? What I am implying is that while using the loudspeaker for music/YouTube, the speaker at the top of the handset has a weaker sound that the one at bottom. It does not carry as much bass and is noticeably quieter.
This seems odd because i dont have this issue
Is it the same in different modes, landscape/portrait

Ok I have received a replacement Z2 today and it has exactly the same issue. When playing music/videos/games, the speaker at the top is noticeably quieter and provides a lower quality sound.
Maybe this is a software problem? The two devices I have had are on 17.1.A.2.55 but I have seen in the General section there is a newer firmware than this.
Can @LotoTutu @Envious_Data and @Alex Charles confirm what version your're using? Thanks!

im on 17.1.A.2.55 too, i dont have any issues, the only issue i have ran into with my XZ2 is a random lag ever so often, but this only occours when i have 3 or more apps open,
(I Believe this is a RNGD/Entropy)
Misc info
i believe then new firmware is 17.1.A.69 which contains some minor bug fixes and stuff, im not sure about the details of it realy so i cant tell much realy
the Speaker issue we have here i cant tell if its a Firmware or Hardware, i kinda need to test some more,
ill be getting a second XZ2 so ill be able to test weather this is a HW or a Firmware issue unless someone else can conform

Best way to test is test file like this http://www.testmyspeakers.com/speaker-test.mp3 (this plays left, right then both)
Because some songs records in a way one side for base

i tried this link and my bell unit has the same issue. it is not drastic, but there is a slight difference in volume with the bottom speaker being louder. i noticed this today when listening to a podcast when i accidentally covered the bottom speaker and noticed that the sound dropped quite a bit. the difference was not as noticeable with this link though. i am on the .55 firmware, can anyone with .69 confirm that their unit works differently?
