[Q] Beats by Dre Help? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

ok i just got my powerbeats and heard about the troubles with using all controls. but i thought i had seen a mod or flasable program to maybe get these to work properly. my biggest thing is the mic doesnt work when im trying to talk on the phone through skype or whatever. im deployed right now and would like to talk in private some days. ive been searching for the past couple days and havent been able to really find anything that would work. if anybody has a fix or know anything let me know. thanks in advance.

Phone mic voice too soft

My phone is giving me a problem in this area. When i talk on the phone (without using bluetooth or handsfree) people say i sound very far, or very soft. I've tried alot of different radios, and schaps diff versions. Including the latest 4.22ROM
Other then the rom itself i didn't install any other thing. But yet i'm still having this problem.
I've read in other topics that might be about setAcoustic.exe problem, but it doesnt' seem to solve my problem.
Anyone got any other suggestions? It's been causing me a big pain :
anyone know how to fix this??
update, it seems to be happening at random atm, some phone calls it's very clean, other it's too far..
hi, im having this same problem on my 8525. sometimes people can hear me and sometimes people can't hear me at all. any one else have this problem?
there was an old thread on this, search setAcoustic and you'll find it. if that fails , then i guess you can join me to wait for another solution
on the side note, bluetooth works nicely and i don't get any voice distortion or volume too soft.
Update:
So far things seems to be better atm, but it still happens. Sometimes while talking halfway, my signal can get very bad.. does this have to do with radio?
hey guys .... this is my first post here and i too am facing the exact same problem.... any solutuins? please HELP! (sorry for the caps)

Here's something to try the next time someone complains you sound far away/too soft: Switch over to your bluetooth handsfree without moving the phone. If you start sounding better then, I would guess that your built-in mic isn't working properly. You'd never know especially since you got it from eBay
Signal strength shouldn't matter too much, unless you start getting a marginal signal (say, one bar), and if that happens, try moving your head about (with your phone) - that should help the signal a little.

haha yeah, recently it seems to be working though, a few times people called me and said can't hear me but i called them back and it worked.
well just an update, nothing seems to be working for me.
Flashing to the latest schap's rom = not working
flasing to other radio versions = not working
Changing to non 3G network, same problem
i'm beginning to be convinced that it might be my phone hardware that's screwed up.
now i'm flashing back to original official dopod rom. see if that fixes things.
Update: While installing my officail dopod rom, i realize that the officail ones install alot more stuff into my Dopod.
Is this normal/ as per compared to schap's roms?
this is the 1st time i'm installing a WM6 official rom, does it make any diff? Everytime you reinstall a rom = kinda like format drive C and reinstalling windows right?
If startup animation is enabled, and set acoustic parameter is not ran. You will have low volume issue. It is Rom/WM related, not necessarily a hardware problem. My Rom ahs startup animation disabled, acoustic parameter is properly set.
Second that, I highly recommend u all try k's 1.30b rom!
how do you make sure acoustic parameter is properly set?
bump.. any one figure this out yet? im tired of texting i just want to talk on my phone hahah. ive come to the point that im gonna buy a razr.
hi all, just another update.
things was working very well for a long while while using K's rom, but now it's starting to happen again while i'm on k's rom.
setAcoustic Param is done (i read in K's rom it's set properly)
anyone got any other suggestions?
update: I've been reflashing a few diff roms, apparently all of them have the same problem, including K's one which i see setAcoustic running at 1st run.
I really have no clue why my voice is too soft. Now i'm flashing the official HTC one, hopefully it works...
anyone got any new info on this? i'm still having the same problem
if it is an hardware issue, is there anyway to figure if it is an hardware issue? or how do i open my phone?
just another update.
Now my voice fades in and out.. it's literally mood swings.. sometimes sounds good, other times sounds bad..
but i'm resorting to use wireless for now. it seems that wireless is more stable. there was 1 time which i was trying to talk on the phone's mic but the other party couldn't hear me, so i switched to wireless immediate on the same call and the other party could hear me immediately.
I've changed countless of roms already, the problem is still there regardless of what rom, official ones from HTC or others cooked in here, (schaps, k's, and many others) i can only assume that my mic is broken....
this i'm in malaysia and this is a orange phone.. i wonder if i can get any warrenty here at all.. or someone that knows how to repair this phone..
Hopefully this will be my last update
I've sent my phone for repairs. hardware wise, they say they fixed it. After that, my volume is pretty stable.
There are once or twice that my voice still went out, however, i found out that by disabling WOW HD Settings, it solved my problem too.
So far, i'm happy with my hermes

Herald/Wing with a BTB200

I have a Pioneer AVIC-D3 with a CD-BTB200 bluetooth kit that will allow me (technically) to broadcast bluetooth music to my headunit, and also to use as a handsfree through the stereo. Has anyone done this before? On the AVIC411 forums, a lot of people have had some serious issues with WM6 and synchronicity, but some people have downloaded JetWARE and been able to use one function or the other.
Any input would be awesome.
Ok...it seems no one else cares, but I got it to work with the phone functionality. It's rather cool sounding, and I like it a lot. The only problem I'm running into currently is that I can only send my contacts across one at a time, which is kinda lame.
question
do u mean u can play music in ur car, as long as the car is bluetooth enabled?
thats great..i dont have a car with that yet.. but i plan to, and thats great to know.. thanks

So you got it working. with out any bugs,
Try this: in the registry of your device HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\SYS\COD
change the value to 5374476 (DEC). That helped me. The Phone changes in bluetooth to a smartphone (I don't know the difference to WM5-6.1).
I used jetwaremobile.com and downloaded the hands free config profiles onto my wing and it works fine.

[Q] Ventrildroid/Mangler

Has anyone gotten these apps to work? Both kick me out when someone talks, I figured its probably an issue since the nook doesn't have a mic but being able to atleast hear people would be great, atleast until bluetooth is working and we can use headsets with it. xD

[Q] Unsolvable Hero question....

UPDATE: ok, ive figured out part of the problem so maybe a solution will be easier. After experimenting, iheld down my menu key and it opened the keybrd, hitting the speak button initiate my call for as long as i talk, once i stop it tries searching and does its job. SO, there is a problem between the voice recognizer initiating when it should turn on....or something like that.
could not find ANYTHING in my settings that would turn this on permanently.
ideas? thx
hey guys, first time poster long time reader.
huge fan of what everyones been doing here so maybe i can get help cause ive been unable to find any solution.
PROBLEM: In car bluetooth handsfree communication for PHONECALLS only, competely not working.
Ok, so i have had my telus htc hero for 2 years now, everything worked fine on stock 1.5 and upgrd 2.1
once i started having trouble with memory and no a2sd, i bit the bullet and flashed CM6.1 and loved it, but thats when my BT trouble began. ever since then, it hasnt worked. It will pair, connect and if i receive a call the music(which works fine) will pause and the phone will ring, but when i answer it.. complete silence from both ends.
I flashed CM7.0.0(maybe 7.0.1?) beta3, thinking it would solve the problem and no luck.
After several weeks of searching i came across ELELINUX last night, read the changelogs and it said BT worked fine. so i flashed 7.1.0 RC1 v3.1 to find the exact same problem persisted.
I am out of ideas and threads to read...if ANYONE has a suggestion they think will work, i am all ears.
Thx so much for any help and sorry for my long first post.
Sounds like trouble with the roms bluetooth stack. I'd test a stock rom and see if that solves the problem. If it does, its probably the roms you're using.
Hmm ok. I just assumed that since the build said "Bluetooth working", that it would! Lol
But ok thanks man, I guess I just search for that with "stock hero rom" right?
Ill give it a whirl and see what's up. I wish someone knew of a working 2.2 Rom for hero, sheesh

Calm down, just because your problem still exists, doesn't make it our fault, or our responsibility. If anything, its your responsibility. If you want it fixed, contact the developer of the rom. If that doesn't work, try developing a fix yourself, and see the time, skill and patience it takes. Until then, quit raging against the hardworking fellows here and let us move on to bigger things. If you truly want bluetooth, you can always unroot and go back to stock to fix your problem. Beggars can't be choosers.

Sorry, that was supposed to be read in a comical fashion with no actual bitterness :/ prob should have made myself clearer.

Volume Issues

Ok, i'm sure i'm not the only one having this issue. I'm stock and currently on the latest OTA and for some reason my phone likes to reset itself to max volume. I can almost always reproduce it with having headphones plugged in, playing a a song and when i open my dialer, it goes max volume. Its a persistent issue and i was wondering if anyone has had these similar issues and or possible knows of a fix? if its a known bug, then i guess i'll have to find a work around till another update is released . At the moment, i'm using Audio Manager to keep the volumes from changing again. I tried to recreate the issue again with the above process and it sounded like it was about to jump up then came back down so its working for now...just wish it worked properly is all. Anyone with this happening to them too?
Update: Ok, so i'm noticing when i start to have issues...i have my headphones plugged in and the beats app shows a notification...but beats is off when i check settings... possibility?
Update 2: Turning off beats and trying to recreate the issue no longer happens. guess its beats after all. guess i'll run without it for now. if its just me having issues and not anyone else, i'd appreciate hearing it from you guys to know what my next step should be thanks again guys!
Update 3: Damn it...went in with high hopes....still went to max volume when i went into the dialer....just didnt make my ears bleed since beats was off... i'm out of ideas...i wait for your responses....
Update 4: So i have not been able to stop looking for information and i found some other posts that helped. Alot of people were having issues with Tango. No problems now after uninstall! Hope this helps anyone that was having issues. Sorry if this was annoying >.< Now i know... (if it helped you, at least some good came out of it)
I've had the same issue on both mine and my wife's DNAs. We haven't used headphones with them though, so I don't think that's the problem. I have searched all over the net for tips and this is the first one that seems to work. Thanks!
yup...
I'm experiencing the same problem... Know what you mean about making your ears bleed. I use beats by Dre ear buds. Happened on my first DNA more frequently. I had it replaced after it was stolen. Didn't happen on the new one for weeks, thought I was in the clear. Will try uninstalling tango...
I would believe the idea about Tango. I used to have this problem all the time. I don't have Tango now and I haven't had the problem in a long time. Never knew or thought about Tango being the culprit. Thanks I will never go back and download it now.
