I've now downgraded my FW to .55, and it fixed my mic issues. Problem sorted.

There's a few settings in settings/call settings that let you fiddle with voice quality

I got Noise cancellation and Speaker Voice Improvement Activated. EQ at Normal..
Disabling the Noise cancellation improves alitle bit, but i didn't have these issues until i upgraded to the newer baseband.

I just noticed something. My voice is only bad when talking like normally on the phone having it against the ear. But if i have the phone's mic directed to my mouth, my voice is hearable.

Noise cancellation?

I read the SGS2 has noise cancellation?
Can anybody confirm if this uses the dual microphone approach as used in the Nexus and
some noise cancelling headsets?
If it does, I'm guessing there should be an additional microphone located away from the 'proper' microphone.
Thanks

Yes it does have noise cancellation. The second mic looks like it's at the top next to the headphone socket.
can anyone comment on the in-call quality with the noise canellation? the nexus s has very bad call audio in noisy environments. my nexus one call quality is superb with the second mic.
is the SGS2 very good in this regard?
He talks about call quality and it sounds very good.

Does it also reduce non-stationary background noise ?
Is this noise cancelling mic used as one of the stereo mic's when recording video do you know?
Does anyone else's noise cancelling mic seem to turn itself off? Every time i make a call,the screen shows noise reduction off even though its enabled,i switch it back on but when i make a call again its off.
Can anyone see if this is the case on there S2 to see if its a fault or a bug. Thanks.

When do you see that message? Is it when the other end answers?
Cant say I have noticed it.
Does it only happen on speaker phone or BT headset?
It happens when the other person answers,a squiggly icon appears on the left. If u press the menu button you can select to turn it off or on.

As I previously said, are you using speaker or a headset?
Or is this just a regular call, ie you hold the phone to the side of your head?
Oh, and where are the settings for noise cancellation?
thanks
its just a regular call mate.

When your on a call press the menu button and the option to turn noise cancellation on/off is there.
I can confirm I get the same
If you've turned it on while on a call then disconnected that call and make another call is it still on or has it turned off again? Mine always switches off..
Yep thats what I get
Do you think thats a fault, its a bit annoying that you have to turn it on every time you make a call..
Unless the icon with the line through the sound wave actually means that its cancelling noise?

[Xperia Sola] Speaker not loud enough

Voice call speaker seems to be quiet even if I've got In-call volume set to highest level. There is no problem to hear my interlocutor when is silence around but it starts to be more difficult to hear clearly in loud environment like restaurant or street. Is there any hidden option or service menu to help solve that issue? Have any one else got problems with speaker in Xperia Sola or it's just me?

I noticed the same thing. It would be nice to be able to boost it a little. I can hardly hear the phone in my truck.

call volume - noise suppression

For those saying call volume is quiet when you are on a call if you hit the menu button there is a noise suppression option that is checked. Unchecking this increases the volume.

Not sure. Still on the same phone call...over an hour and they didnt mention anything. I haven't heard any crackles or strange sounds other people complained about either.
Mobile data is on...hence me being on this site @ this time. (Testing the bluetooth now) Call quality & range are excellent as well (Plantronics Voyager Legend).
Battery hasn't dropped @ all & the phone is cold to the touch. So glad i got this phone

Caller can't hear me clearly?

Hi
I have Xperia Z2 D6503,M rooted.
Recently i've been facing an annoying problem which is when someone calls me or i call them the other part can't hear me well but when i use speaker they can hear me very clearly.
can anyone tell me the problem?
Hi,
you may try to turn the Microphone noise suppression off in the call settings.
I faced similar issue, it was cutting off silent tones of voice.

Pretty sure you need MM build 575 for that feature. It's not in 570.

@mascox14, Although the settings are somewhat related accessories, you tried to change the microphone sensitivity from there?
Settings / Sound and Notifications/ Accessory settings / Mic sensitivity
Look at what value is pre-made and test after that the microphone in the Settings / About phone / Diagnostics
Change it to High level and test again in service menu for results.
Will was surprised by the difference in the test.
Set mic equalizer to "bright" and see if that helps. I know equalizer is not supposed to be related to the voice sent but it helped for me.

Bad call quality

Is anyone else having problems with the call quality?
I also checked with HiCare and I sound very muffled when using the microphone.

Not for me for now
So what I found out is, that if I am in a quiet room and talk, then voice quality is very bad.
If I stand in a very loud area, voice quality is good.

i have the same issue lately. I will back up the phone then reset to factory defaults and if it's not helping I will send to service through the window.
