Poor microphone - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

When using the MDA3 I've got very poor microphone quality. People are constantly saying they can bearly hear me.
I've upgraded from 1.03.00 to 1.22.169, but still very poor microphone quality.
Could this be a defect, or is this a common problem?
Regs,
Niels

Common problem unfortunately.

Microphone gain too low (phone)

People compain that they do not hear me...
this goes for the internal microphone unless i hold the QTEK horizontally (microphone neat mouth) og handsfree, unless I hold the microphone in front of my mouth.
during recording, the internal microphone is very sensitive and just fine.
how can I make it that sensitive when using the phone ?
Start -> Settings -> System -> Microphone AGC
Play around with this one, and see if it gets any better..
If not, buy a BT handsfree?
no, I (we) know for a fact that this setting have nothing to do with Phone-mode, *only* recording.
sorry, read my last post is a big problem of Qtek 9090
no solution the 9090 only works with the headset bluetooth
I returned my 9090 and took a 2020 !!
read other post in this forum and other forum, many people say the same... the 9090 phone is very bugged !!!!
french, spain, netherland and more country user have the same problem.
try once to hold your phone in the other hand ;-) ... i had people complaining about my spv m2000 being too silent and then i discovered, that i covered the little microphone hole which is a littlebit towards an edge and not excatually in the middle of the phone... so i concentrated on not covering the hole anymore and never had anybody complain about the volume since..

Mic too quiet
I've got the same problem as the original poster - on a Blue Angel XDA IIs.
I agree that the AGC works for the voice recording (and does a crystal clear job too) but for standard voice calls it's getting on for being as deaf as a doorpost.
Surely one of you techies has found a way of implementing the AGC function for voice calls :?: :idea:
Same problem. The problem doesn't appear every time. Using the headset doesn't fix the problem.
I'm very disappointed, the 9090 is great, but is not a phone. I'll maybe change with a treo 650...

newer units seem to be fixed
I just received my Cingular Siemens SX66 Monday, and the microphone issue seems to have been resolved in the newer units. Don't know what was changed, but I have used the phone in both speakerphone and held to ear modes and everyone says I am coming thru almost with wired quality. Maybe HTC and Siemens took the extra time to market to fix some of the early production issues. I also find the build quality to be excellent on my unit.

Downgraded Bluetooth

I originally got my M2000 with BT 1.0.0.3500.
It worked OK with my Southwing headset but I heard that getting the upgrade to 1.6.0.600 would improve the sound quality.
I upgraded and there was very little improvement, if any.
I then noticed that the connection with my headset was very erratic.
The headset would connect ok and the m2000 would repond correctly to me pressing, double-pressing or tripple-pressing the control button on the headset. If I made a call from the handset it would be transferred to the headet. However, this would only happen for one call. Once I had made and terminated one call it would get kinda stuck and not reset itself so I could not use the headset properly. The only way I could fix this was to turn off the headset, do a reset on the m2000 and then switch on and reconnect the headset.
Finally got fed up and downgraded back to 1.0.0.3500 and it's all OK again.
Anyone else had similar problems ?
southwing and bluetooth
I just bought a southwing bluetooth headset and couldn't wait to get started. Little did I know that the pain was just about to start.
I am using an Orange SPV M2000 with the 1.12.22 WWE ROM and Radio version 1.04, build 2200 of bluetooth stack 1.00 build 2200. Not sure if this is the problem.
Anywaythe Southwing sounds fine when i use it but the volume that its sends to the other party is about 10 times to low and even when yelling I can't be heard well. Is this a known problem with either the Blue Angel phones or SouthWing headsets? Is it easy to upgrade to a newer bluetooth stack? Is this something I should do?
Sorry to reply to your question with another question but do you find the volume levels acceptable on your SouthWing?
I have had a lot of complaints from callers when I use my southwing including too quiet, static and background noise, voice cutting in and out, sounding like I'm in a tunnel etc.
Fortunately it has also fallen apart, i.e. the grey rubber eargrip bit keeps coming off the main body.
I bought mine at expansys so they said I could just send it back for a refund.
I have just bought a Cardo Scala 500 (also from expansys) which should arrive tomorrow.
It looks pretty cool and the reviews says the sound quality is excellent.
It also has an alternative to the round-the-ear grip which is a little stem that clips onto the arm of your glasses. Exellent for me as I wear specs.
I would seriously think about upgrading your ROM to 1.31.00 and then patching your BT Stack.

Tekkeon ET3000 experience?

Hi people, I was wondering if anyone has ever used Tekkeon ET3000 with Imate Jasjar. I was able to receive the numbers only for the caller ID but I couldn't access my phone book...does anyone have any luck with the phone book access via the earpiece? Just want to know if my device is defective before I exceed my return policy.
Thanks
What do you think about the Tekkeon? How about reception, any comments?
The earpiece fits really comfortably imho, volume is great but the quality of the audio itself is kind of unstable compared to jabra bt800. Hope that helps.
Thanks for responding. So does this mean the Jabra BT 800 is better than the Tekkeon?
Yes i have the Same problem with the JasJar, but hey what about the mic quality? whenever i call anyone, complains because its far
i have this http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/9275.htm
i believe it,s the same as tekkeon i have also the problem with no phone book i also have the problem that i cannot recieve the international (+) symbol before the number example +30210999888 i only recieve 30210999888 does anyone else see that?
qtek 9000 with bth8 v-three

no sound, only heard crackle

no sound HTC P3300, only crackle in speaker, through earphones too not audible. Help who faced with such problem.
Thank you!!!!
Hi,
I think I have similiar problem as yours, only crackle sound...At the very beginning, I assumed that I had faulty on speaker. I managed to get a replacement speaker from ebay (search for "xda orbit buzzer" for those do not have sound at all).
After the replacement, I am now dissappointed as the problem still the same.
Furthermore, I just realised that this crackle sound still occur when using earphone. What a fool I am!! I should have test it first!
Anyway, I just want to point out that my speaker is working fine but what is my actual problem for this crackle sound?? Anyone have this problem and how to solve? Anyway response would be appreciated.
Many thanks!

Bluetooth Call Sound:

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone noticed a huge quality drop in the transmit/receive audio quality with bluetooth to a car. I've heard that its a common problem with xiaomi but was just wondering if there was a fix or something I could do to resolve it.
Edit: It kind of makes everyone sound like they're in a tunnel and a bit tinny noise and on their end I sound like I'm distant. I tried it with other phones as well (blackberry priv, iphone 7, samsung s7) but just seems to only be a mi5s issue.
