Hi all - from some reason, after a non consistent time, any phone calls I make do not transfer my voice - it'd dial the number, the recipient will answer but hears nothing. A reboot may not fix it - but a few will eventually. Calls I am receiving are perfectly fine.
Any ideas?
hi, post this on CRC's thread or do a search there (no need to create another thread)
dodgy microphone crc 13 rom fix
Hey i had the same problem and found it hard to find a fix, so i installed resco audio recorder and set it to record phone calls, now the microphone kicks in every time! its a dodgy work round but it works well if your desperate. tho its worth opening and closing the audio recorder occasionally to reclaim program memory, and deleting the files through the program only sends them to the recycle bin if u use resco explorer, so delete through that. sorry if this is the wrong spot to reply, but i've been at work all night and want to get this info out! good luck and thanks to all
Uninstall SRS WOW HD
I had this problem when I first used CRC's ROM. I don't think it's the CRC's issue to fix, per se, but I determined it was the SRS WOW HD app under System in his Device Update that was the offender. Once I removed that, my phone's mike started working again. Never investigated the app to see if anyone else reported a problem. I just figured I didn't need it so badly as to lose my ability to talk on the phone (and let people know I was actually able to hear them).

Yes, most of the time when people have issues with there sound, its SRS WOW or its a hardware issue.
Please post in the approrpiate thread.

On pretty much every phone I've ever previously owned, if I call someone who's in the middle of another call, I get a little beep and a notification displayed on screen saying "Call Waiting" or equivalent. On my HTC Desire, my first Android phone, there is no notification. Is there any way to make it tell me?
Is your Call Waiting (in Call settings) notification ON?
If by that, you mean:
Settings>Call>Additional Settings>Call waiting
then, yes. But that setting is for me recieving another call while I'm already on the phone. What I asked for is a way to be notified if the person I'm calling has me on call waiting.
I'm sorry, it seems I didn't pay enough attention to your original post.
I apologize but I don't know the answer.
Yea I found this pretty annoying also. Would be cool to find an APP on the market that notifies you with a beep or a vibration that another call is coming in
I don't know about you, but I get a beeping notification if someone's calling me while I'm on the phone. Might be done by my provider though. I switched to this provider at the same time as I switched to this phone.
Well I got used to Bluetooth dialing (put BT to ear, push button, say "NAME" and it dials", but unfortunately the Desire and Android 2.1 do not offer it right now
My provider might have something to do with my "no notification" when another call is coming in. Hopefully Froyo 2.2 can be released soon because I think it does offer BT support
there is
I have noticed this bug with the original ROM too. After rooting and installing Pays ROM the beep was ok, loud and clear.
Also on my current ROM (DeFroST 0.6) call waiting work.
(Payed) App from the market: http://www.cyrket.com/p/android/com.droidea.callwaiting/
dboy0911, you made the same mistake ferus initially made. I'm not asking for the notification if someone's calling me. I want the notification if I'm calling someone who's already on another line.
i miss that in android, like my nokia,its defenatly not operator option since the same sim was on my nokia and it did notify me
Yeah, Rabia seems to be the first person getting exactly where I come from with this..

whats the use my friend, still no fix to my knowledge
Galaxy Tab does it so its possible, I actually found out that all Samsung phones even windows ones will actually display call waiting msg if ur calling someone who's is on a call currently, I actually might go for galaxy my self unless someone try a Samsung Android on HTC
It is very important to display call waiting msg. Why HTC does not support this basic feature.
I just checked and there's an option for "Vibrate on call waiting" in CM7. Don't know if thats AOSP or CM specific though.
It's not in the AOSP.. Or at least not as of FroYo, which is what the HTC Desire officially has as the latest. I know this because my colleague has a Nexus One and it doesn't have that option either.
I see. A good excuse to start rooting and loading CM then :]

Sorry, but that's not reason enough for me to change my ROM. I'm very happy with Sense UI. Though I would like to try CM tbh.. Still not gonna try it though.

Bluetooth Voice Dialing is in the Froyo feature set.
I can't see this feature anywhere on the Desire after the 2.2 update. Anyone else?
I can't find it either...
really really annoyed about this!! when i bought the phone it was something I really needed! Was told it would be on the phone with 2.2 in a couple of months but now nothing!!! Grrrr!!!
I read somewhere that you can use the voice search do dial someone, and it actually works, but there are two problems:
1) Since the main objective of voice search is to search using google, you need to be on wireless or 3G to start using voice search, even if you don't want to use google at all. So if you don't leave your 3G active all the time, you'll have to activate it before launching voice search.
2) You can't launch voice search by pressing the action button on the bluetooth headset, so you still have to pull the phone out of the pocket to activate it and then give the command.
Those two problems pretty much makes voice search unusable as a replacement to a dedicated voice dialing dialog, because you always have to take the phone out of pocket and interact a lot with it to finally call someone. It's easier to just tap your contact's shortcut to call it.
It was in the leaked ROM that was floating around a couple of weeks ago too! My guess this will be coming in another update around the time that HTC release their car dock. Bloody gits.
in the prerelease 2.2 (LeeDroid) I am using if I press the talk button on the steering wheel it requests a voice command and then searches for whoever you said "call". But it its true that 3G MUST be activated.
Can anyone recommend a 2.2 ROM with HTC sense that has this feature? Is it a good idea for me to reflash do you think?
This was the one thing i was waiting for with the froyo release and it appears to be missing.
Im not seriously considering rooting my phone just to get this feature.
Can anybody recommend me a rom with this feature enabled?
I'm in the same boat, wasn't really bothered about rooting but now it looks like I'm going to have to!
I've emailed HTC on their support page, does anyone think I'm going to get a response?

HTC replied to me saying "we can decide what parts of the system are used and which are not".
Removing this from the release is ridiculous. It's so common now for use of hands-free kits to be compulsory, if not the only legal option.
It was my main reason to debrand and upgrade, only to find that it's been omitted.
Maybe some kind soul can manage to knock up an APK from a release where it was included (fingers crossed)
Well here's the response from HTC!
Not good really!
Hi Dave, Voice to text is only available in North America due to the limitations of the voice recognition software database that our phone uses. We are researching the possibility of expanding the coverage of the Voice-To-Text feature but we are still analyzing
the feasibility and currently have no schedule to relay this to you now. We have your contact information on our system and will contact you when we have a solution. Kind regards, Tom HTC

Don't tell me that HTC is not going to include this feature in Froyo! I bought my desire AFTER the announcement of Bluetooth voice dialing, and I thought I could wait for this to come in 2.2 update, and now they say they won't include it???? Are they crazy enough to omit one of the main features in Froyo??? What on earth are they thinking?!?!
Correct - they are NOT going to include it in Froyo 2.2
I have the official HTC version of Froyo that doesn't have it, and am rather upset as i would have rooted my phone to get this feature, but I was under the impression I didn't have to.
Now that I've updated to HTC's version not only do I still not have Bluetooth voice dialing, but I also don't have the option to root my phone anymore to get it.
Nice to see that they spent time on real things like a new android graphic, the way the lock displays and other useless but blingy stuff instead of items that were lacking that almost every other phone on the market has for granted.

If voice to text doesn't work, how does Google Voice search operate?
This is complete arse.
I thought that in the announcement Google said they were expanding it to work with different accents and languages?

I tried it a few days ago and thought it was terrible.
I've tried it and seems to work well, I've emailed the dev as well about the last comment but he said it uses the in built speech to text library so it will be as good / bad as any other android dialer
Hope that helps!

anyone else noticing a challenge with their voice search?
i used to be able to say "Navigate to Los Angeles International Airport" and the phone would put the address into gps navigation... but now i get google searches for los angeles international aiport
"dail 6262164571" gets me a google search for "kbb 2164571"
"call elaine" gets me "did you mean... kbb, qb, etc"
AT LEAST these results are consistent.. but these results are consistently WRONG. anyone with any clues how to remedy?
******* EDIT / UPDATE FIX (6/1/2011) *******
I AM VERY HAPPY TO REPORT THAT I FOUND THE SOLUTION (that's worked for me) ON THE GOOGLE FORUMS!
i hope it works for you guys... see the fix here:
http://www.google.com/support/forum/...04a4aa5a04556c
pretty much (for the lazy):
On your phone, Start Google Voice
Click the Menu button and tap Settings.
Turn of "Personalized Recognition"
Tap the "Google Account Dashboard"
Scroll down to the "Speech" section and click the "Anonymize recognition"
Click "Yes..." when it asks if you really want to.
i was losing hope but someone answered my post finally on the google forums =D
er.. anyone with clues at least of what i can look into? or anyone ever experience anything similar?
Nope..I'm not having issues but you can try....
Settings - Voice input - Voice recog settings
Check "personalize recog" if its not checked
OR uncheck it if it is.
Worth a try at least.
thanks dude... i tried that -- no avail.
i think my voice search chops off like the first bit of what i'm saying... it's kind of funny. if i say "navigate navigate to los angeles international airport" it'll process fine, but if i say "navigate to los angeles international airport" it'll google search the "lose angeles international airport" LOL
maybe i'll need to do some stuff through the terminal ?? have no freakin' clue... this is weird tho
Don't know if this will have an effect but it fixes a lot of other apps when they act weird. Try clearing the data for Voice search.
Settings - manage apps - Voice search
Clear data and/or uninstall updates.
dkechitkid thanks for taking the time to help me out -- i'm very grateful!
i looked in the market for voice search and it looks like some other users might be experiencing something similar
not sure how to contact the "devs" of the app tho b/c it's google inc.. i'll figure it out.
Not a problem. Good luck and if you find a solution..report back to this post. You never know, I might run in to this one someday and need the fix.

Although I have an HTC Incredible, I am having the exact same problem; the kbb business and everything. This problem only started happening recently for me (last several weeks).
I just discovered (tonight) that if I say:
Test Navigate to Burger King
It drops "Test" and I end up with "Navigate to Burger King". The first word doesn't have to be "test", any word seems to do. Not perfect, but now I can at least get directions. This has been driving me crazy and I've tried everything to resolve it (flashing different ROMs, deleting everything on my sdcard, etc).
Update:
These people seem to be having the same problem:

The app does NOT have BT audio enabled. (A very bad lack of a feature.) It hasn't been updated recently either. And the phone mic works fine most of the time in my experience.

I never had this problem until recently and I have a different phone than the OP has (I have an HTC Incredible). I believe this is a problem with the most recent version of the voice search application (users posting to the discussions I linked to believe this as well).
Maybe I'll back up my current ROM and revert to an older version of MIUI to verify.

Hi guys
Please help! I am a few days into my OnePlus 3 ownership and for most part I'm loving it! I have been a Nexus owner since the 4, with my last device being the 6P (unfortunately just a little too big to keep) and wanted a near vanilla OS device with great hardware in the form factor.
Besides the known bugs with Oxygen OS and the outdated phone apk which I wish had call blocking and local search/caller ID - any suggestions for a solution? The real issue for me is I get no voice responses to any of my OK Google voice commands. I am running the oxygen OS 3.2.1 update.
I only get responses in the browser / on screen. This is regardless of the command, what's the weather , what's the time in Tokyo etc or set a reminder, send a text to ... etc
Now I have done the following to troubleshoot:
1) Checked all related settings (speech output on etc)
2) Tried both uk and us English and ensured languages had been downloaded
3) Factory reset and tried again from restoring Google account
4) Factory reset and tried as a new phone with no Google account
Whatever I do there is no voice response. I will note during Google maps use if I ask a question I get a response.
OnePlus support offer nothing but an RMA which of course is probably no the solution it must be a setting or a software bug.
Can fellow owners check if they have the same issue and if they have a solution, kindly share it?
Many thanks

My first op3 was defective. Same issues with the mic. (besides phone calling)
Don't waste your time guys., you have to return device.
Sorry.
I think it only works on Google launcher home screen and any screen while phone is on (if activated under settings). It will not work while screen is off. Correct? Or are you referring to something different?

Thanks for this, to be clear are you saying you had the same problem, voice commands via 'OK Google' were working but the response was only on screen? But your replacement phone works fine and you get audio responses/'OK Google' talks back?

Thanks for your response, I am referring to the fact the phone doesn't talk back. No voice response when asked a question. 'OK Google' works from any screen when the phone is on (and you choose the setting) but whatever you do the answer or response is on screen only, no answers are spoken back.
I have the exact same issue, it was working when I received the phone. But since 4-5 days it has stopped responding back, it just shows the answers on screen.
Good to know that I am not the only one facing this problem. I hope it is just a software bug and will be fixed soon.
i am saddened because of this as well! I used to ask Google Now about the weather, time, to set the alarm and the talk-back is a great feature to
me, just that now my OP3 has lost this capability !!! I've already googled for a while, a few are questioning same problem but no resolution!
Wow, it got fixed automatically after so many days. I was just setting a reminder and it replied with voice, so I tested other commands too, like weather, time and other stuff. It is working properly for me now, please check if it's fixed for you too. (I didn't update to 3.2.2 yet)
I've had this phone for almost a week and have had the same issues. Tried clearing cache, reinstalling Google, changing settings and nothing worked. All of sudden it started talking back to me yesterday. So there is hope.

Hi FateWeaver, I updated to 3.22 and this is now fixed!!! That's the solution guys at least it was for me, install the oxygen os 3.22 update! So happy OnePlus are delivering fixes so quickly!
