Not sure if its my phone of the rom but let me say something weird if i go ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh in the phone speaker at normal tone when im on the phone with myself it goes down and down and then buts off, unless i change my tone i will stay off, but if i do change the tone of voice it will come back on untill you make a long normal sounding noise like oooooooooooooooooooooo or anything consitant so my question is the rom is bugged or phone speaker ive tried all the noise cancel opions and all the patches i could find if anyone has any idea how i can fix this let me know please, i will donate to the first person who helps me solve this issue this is a much needed phone DD THANKS
Easiest way to see if its the rom or not is to flash stock rom and try to duplicate issue...

hi there!
im using a hero with mc 2.3 and FU_6.35.07.08 radiofirmware.
everytime I'm talking to someone, he keeps telling me to speak louder.
no matter how good the signal strenth is or to whom i speak!
I've already tried several radios, just in hope to be able to handle it.
the only solution is to hold the microphone straight to my mouth (its on the downside)
but thats still not the all in all solution..
is there anything like a microphone boost?
or at least can anybody tell me its just a bug or something?
i just hope its not due to the construction.
did u used the Volume Boost app from the market ?(forgot the name....removed asap...)
I used this is had that problem...
and backup didn't help..
ended up had to wipe and re-flash...
dammit... yes.. i did..
thank you for your help!
ill try it out.
Happened to me to.
What did you have to reflash to fix this ?
I will try to get a modified csv file for all hero roms to increase volume on headset, speaker, and for incall volume!

Thanks Drizzy!
This will be much appreciated!!
When I hold my Hero in my left hand up to the ear my little finger (pinky) always cover the little microphone hole so the sound can't reach the microphone. Those who I speak with tells me to speak louder because of this.
Otherwise I get good reports of the clarity of how I sound
Actually, after the latest official ROM upgrade, people have been telling me to speak up, that they can't hear me properly or that it sounds like I have a sweater over the mic or that I'm in a tin can.
I was about to send it in, perhaps I've dropped it or something. But it apparently not just me who has this problem,
Yeh Im also having the same problem. I have the MC 2.3 ROM but did use the volume hack program also. Do you think this has something to do with it?? Does anyone know of any way to increase the volume of the phone without screwing up the microphone?
hi guys, im having this problem too but only since like yesterday i think! im sure its something to do with the modaco rom as if i go back to default everything seems fine.
Any ideas?
Confused
Hi,
Sorry about the maybe obvious quiestions but I am quite new to this!
I bought an apparently new unlocked HTC Hero from eBay recently (which I now realise might have been a big mistake!)
On "About Phone" section of the phone it says I have firmware version 1.5 and "Build Number": "MoDaCo Custom Rom 2.3 Core".
I am now realising that this phone is probably not as new as advertised and has not come with the original software.
Anyway everything else seems to work perfectly with this phone apart from the same microphone problems as other people have described, so I was hoping that someone could explain to me what has been done to the phone and any suggestions on how to fix it or return it to its default state!
Im sorry, for the simple questions but as I say I am new to Android and would like a phone that I can make phonecalls with!
Thanks for any help you can give me.
Solution
I think it can be solved by replacing the following files with the original ones:
/etc/AudioFilter.csv
/etc/AudioPara4.csv
/etc/AudioPreProcess.csv
Of course you have to be root to be able to replace these files...
Note: I have not tried the above yet, but these files contain low level audio settings, so there is a good chance changing it can help you.
Thanks for the response.
However being completely new to this I am still a bit unclear.
How do I access these files on my phone and where do I find the original ones?
I am pretty sure it has been rooted - although not sure how I check - it definately has a custom rom installed on it though
You can download for example the MoDaCo ROM: http://content.modaco.net/hero/2.3-update-hero-modacocustomrom-core-signed.zip
In this .zip file you will find the mentioned files in the /system/etc/ sub-directory.
Simply copy them to your MicroSDHC card, than in the phone use a file browser (like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530271 ) to copy them from the card to the phone's file system (into /etc/ ). After this you only need to reboot.
aaaah, i have this exact same problem!! I really hope it is the ROM & not the handset.
[Q] This just started this morning. When I talk to someone they hear me at a very low volume and the mic cuts in and out. Also noticed when the phone rings it sounds really "snowy". Anybody have any ideas what could be wrong?
Running SFR 1.1.0
HC Fusion 2.1
Clean Kernel
I have a problem were either sides can't hear each other .... happens maybe 4/10 times... im also on SFR (i think we all know why xD)
Happens even more times on midnight... not sure what it is but yea i've done alot of Odins, Redownloads, Reflashes ... just gave up on it really.
Could be an issue with speaker/mic. Do a backup then flash back to stock. if it doesn't solve the problem then you'll have to go to sprint. You'd have to flash to stock anyway for them to look at your phone.
After I updated to stock Froyo, my phone started muting during calls. No face pressing of buttons, and the mute button wasn't on. It just muted itself, and the only way for me to fix it was to turn speakerphone on and off. I thought rooting the phone and putting a custom ROM (Syndicate Frozen) on the phone might help, so I did just that. The problem is still on-going.
Does anyone else have this problem? Is there any solution? My Epic is my main phone and it's done this on a few very important phone calls a few times already. Before I take it into Sprint I just was curious if there's a simple, less having-to-deal-with-face-to-face-tech-support kind of way.
Thank you. I apologize if this has been answered already.
Is the phone muting your voice so that the caller can't hear you, but you can still hear the caller?
I had the exact same thing happen with my Epic and I ended up having Sprint exchange it for another phone.
Out of curiosity, what happens if you turn on speakerphone?
Ahh, yes that's exactly what happens. They can't hear me, but I hear them perfectly fine. Usually what I hear is, "Are you there? Hey, are you there?" a few times before I realized what happened, and no matter how many times I tell my mom to just stay on the line and I'll fix the problem in two seconds after it dawns on me what happened, she always hangs up in a huff.
When I turn on speakerphone they can hear me right away, then I just turn it back off and everything is fine the rest of the call. It doesn't even happen every call, which is the best part. I'll be in the middle of a 10 minute conversation and it will mute itself, then the next phone call will last 45 minutes with no problems.
Does the mute icon show it's on? Did you try backing up and simply switching roms? If there's too much trouble, odin ec05 and take it in to repair if the problem still exists.

BTW, when using ODIN start from having the phone off and connected to the computer. hit the power and number 1...
Use the instructions on the odin page
TAKE OUT THE BATTERY BEFORE STARTING
mine always got stuck unless i took the battery out.
Joel
Thank you for the tips, ya'll. I'm going to first update the ROM I'm using now (as there is an update out). If that doesn't help it's off to Sprint I go.
Thanks again.

when you go make sure its a corporate store they have the techs and tell them you already called customer service (dont bother calling them there gonna tell you to factory reset...........every time i have called i can hear that that most if not all are reading from a scrip) then the tech will try to get out of helping you by saying its the towers (bull sh$%) that the most popular answer you will get........ And for the bad news the phone that u will get is a referb
did you try to updat the PRL and profile?
AND FOR GOD SAKES if your rooted got back to stock 2.2 EC05
My phone did the same thing after the upgrade. It is random though. The phone mutes during calls randomly but mute button doesn't light and my face hasn't hit it. I've been trying to find out how to correct the problem, but my Epic was working fine until the upgrade.
I have been flashing ROMs for years and can almost always resolve issues on my own but I am stumped and can't find answers. I have been getting random aol type dial up sound when I make some calls. Even once I hang up the call the sound continues until i turn off my phone and turn it back on. Of course this seems to happen at the worst time so it is rather annoying. I first noticed it on RC8 then RC9 I have tried several other roms and even flashed root66 to try and resolve this. I have also flashed kootz kernel, lean kernel and the kernel that comes with some CM based roms and nothing has worked so far. I am looking for help if anyone has ideas I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance
This problem happens randomly if I call someone or if someone calls me my phone rings and I answer the phone and its silent I cant hear the other person and the other person can't hear me usually to fix this I reboot the phone or take the battery out and sometimes it doesn't even work. I'm not sure what kind of problem this is when I first bought the phone I had no problems like this with it I rooted it and put a variety of different Custom ROMS on my phone and thats when the problem started occurring. Can anyone give me any ideas are things I can do to fix this problem, do i need to update my Radio or should I restore it back to the way it was ? Has anyone else on this forum experience something like this ? Anyways I hope someone can help me out thanks in advance.
