It doesn't seem to matter what combination of rom and radio I flash, everyone I call claims that they hear themselves echo and they get a lot of distorted feedback from the background. I can confirm that that happens because I called myself with my wife's phone. The only thing is that from my phone I hear them loud and clear with no feedback whatsoever.
The radios I've tried so far are:
TLLG2 koodo
UVLG3
LC8
UVLH1
The rooms I've been using are:
Xtremperia
Jedi mind trick
Jedi Knight
Anyone have any suggestions? Could really use some advice cuz I'm at a dead end here

Ok........ well it could be a number of things but try this exact setting:
AOKP ICS Milestone 6
Any ICS/JB radio
Then go to Phone -> Options -> click on noise suppression***
And 2nd thing could be your phone CASE. Some cases have design flaws that causes echoes during phone call. Try a phone call without any case on.
This should solve your problem. If problem still persists, I suggest you get another one under warranty.

This might be a dumb idea but everyone I know I have ever spoke to on the phone that I heard myself echo, just had there phone volume to high. Have you tried just lowering your earpiece volume.
thanks for the suggestions, will try them later and report back.

So I am having a little issue with call volumes. I have to practically yell over the phone sometimes for the other person to hear me. Other times it just feels as if its normal. I am currently running jugs 5.0 with the included faux kernal. Still on kid baseband.
Anyone else with this issue?
I was always on jugs roms, and I don't really recall if its always been like this or not. And yes, I did a full wipe and clean install.

i had the same problem, odin it back to stock and start over. it should be fine, if not then odin back and use a diff modem
I've been having this problem with all ROMS except for the stock ROM from 4.0.3. My noise is heard distorted to others like a synthesizer (robot) and when I switch off noise suppression they can hear themselves echo. What am I doing wrong? Already tried clearing cache, dalvik cache and fixed permissions to not avail. I love this ROM more than any ROM I've ever used...but people are having difficulties hearing me.
Edit : before flaming I already checked but none of the answers helped me unfortunately.
Edit #2 : Upgrading to #5 and reverting back to stock 4.0.4 kernel and sound changes Jovy added COMPLETELY ELIMINATED the problem.

I think it might only be with roms that are based off of skyrocket roms. Apparently the position of the microphone on the skyrocket is slightly different, causing echo. (Saw this posted somewhere else on the forums.)
You already posted a thread about this issue.. Read my friend take your time and search...
I am on the same rom...
you need to go to your dialer then settings and enable noise suppression!!!!
and if it still have a problem do it again, mute and unmute
seems to help for me

Thanks and yeah I know. I did the noise suppression enabler and I have to keep muting and unmuting every two seconds. But it must've been the kernel. Jovy already fixed it with v5. He's fast!

I have the same issue. No amount of noise suppression enable/disable or mute/unmute toggling will fix it. I even odined back to stock and it persisted. The fact that Samsung doesn't acknowledge this as a defect is laughable.
Now, I'm just waiting for tmo to process my exchange and send it out.
I love the Samsung hardware, but so far, I am 2 for 2 on phones with hardware issues that were not considered defects. (a vibrant with a wonky GPS, and now a hercules with a piss poor mic design.)

I remember that lack of GPS on the Vibrant, and the lag on the Vibrant 4G cause of less memory and ram. And now the S2 with the mics problems. I havent search on the S3 to see what kind of defect it has yet but I am thinking on getting one and before I do I'm gonna do a lot of research on it
Well to start its a great phone but issues issues issues my wife an I are on our 5 replacement. Reason being when some one calls half the time can't hear nothing or they can't hear you. Rather mobile network or wifi calling. No matter what ROM either. As well as wifi calling sucks ass! No matter what router or flashable zips that are suppose to help with the issue. Swapped out two different Sim cards. An nothing phones work fine for the first day or so after that turns to ****. TMobile an there retarded Reps an so called tech support oh do a reset maybe a factory restore that should do it. Doesn't fix a damn thing. Oh and a trouble ticket every three days that they never call back about. As well as I have to dial a number a couple of times to get a call to go through. Never had these problems with my HTC phones. But we love our Samsungs. Anyone with the same consistent problems? Something else a rep said was the phones are having issues due to 4.0.4 update and they are working with Samsung to get it resolved but when I called back to find out about the trouble tickets this rep said he doesn't know anything about that.....retards

My wife says the call quality for her stinks but I find mine to be ok. The only Issue I had was with the D30 case the person i'm talking to gets an echo. But I remove the case and there is no issue.

I remember having this problem as well a while back on certain roms that I used, including stock, but I have not had a single issue since I switched the CyanogenMod10 rom. I would say give CM10 a try if you haven't. It's built from the ground up so it doesn't inherit all the weird issues that stock and modified stock roms have. I have never used WIFI calling so I am not sure if that works on CM10, but since switching to CM10 I have not had any of those weird issues where one person can't hear the the other on a call. Also, if you do try CM10 and people you are talking to complain about the voice quality, try enabling Noise Suppression in the phone settings on CM10. Overall CM10 made me fall in love with my phone, its rock solid, stable, fast, and has great usability improvements over the stock based roms.

Has anyone had an issue with connecting to phone calls with T-Mobile lately? I have tried 3 different radios on multiple ROM's with no luck.
Problem kind of goes like this. I'll make a call....phone will not ring and sometimes say call connected, sometimes it won't ever do anything. I'll hang up, call right back and it does ring. This doesn't happen every time but it happens enough to piss you off.
Any help would be great. Thanks community.

I have the exact same issue. Don't know what is causing it. I have also tried different radios and ROMS. Seems to only have been happening on Jelly Bean ROMS, but don't know if that is a cause, or just that I have only been on those ROMS for a while now.
What Radio/ROM are you using? I am on LiquidSmooth with the UVLH5 radio.
I'm currently on the UVLH radio and PACman latest release.
This is annoying, not disabling my phone but annoying at any rate.

Yeah. I have noticed it a lot when I call my girlfriend. It will say it's connected but I won't hear anything and usually it will disconnect. So if it starts doing that I have started hanging up and recalling and it rings from the start. I just found out today though that it is ringing on her end even though I am not hearing anything. She said most of the time I call it rings, I hang up, and then call right back, but to me, it seems like it's not connecting the first time.
Same thing happens sometimes when I receive calls, I will answer and hear nothing and have to hang up and call back. I wonder if its a T-Mobile thing in our area.
This is a typical issue with Samsung phones and T-Mobile and has been noted in multiple threads.

Im looking for a solid dd for my phone but don't have the time to flash ROMs all day. The only builds I've been trying are the official cyanogenmod builds.. and there awesome except the call quality on the opposite end is unusable in the real world. I heard aokp is better and we now have slim and pac. I have tried the cerux kernel along with cm10.1 but the call quality wasn't any better.. what you guys think?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
how do you define best? your best dd for your phone might not be best for me. Its really subjective to personal preference.
If I wanted to recommend a setup that I personally like the best with good call quality, I recommend pac+cerux.

Try slimstar with cerux kernel and recheck noise suppression, I havnt had any problems with it plus good call quality IMO. Also don't download it yet because the dev said he's updating it tonight so get the updated version
You guys are all pointing to the wrong direction. The ROMs aren't what make the quality of calls even with kernals that tweek settings. Try flashing the most current radio for your android version. After installing the 4.2 radio released last month I haven't experienced a lot of call sound quality related issues. Try flashing a more current radio. Everyone complains on call quality in ROMs but never update their outdated radio. Since I've updated people say they hear me clear when before they used to tell me get a new phone. This might be your fix, especially if youve never updated it

Personally I am digging onlychevys slimbean unofficial 4.2.2, with the newest blaze radio. As suggested, go to phone settings and uncheck, recheck noise suppression, that seems to solve the poor call quality issues most of the time.
T769UVMB1 radio gives me the best user experience here in ne fla. It may be different where you live, you may have to try different radios to find one that works best for you.
Hope that helps

None of the ROM's will help you if they are all using the same radio. You need to flash a new radio. Go to the link there is a really nice list made of all Hercules compatible radios. Pick one, boot to recovery and install the .zip file. Many people like using the galaxy Note radio. I found T989UVLI4 worked best in my area. Make sure noise suppression in phone settings is checked.

Was "noise suppression" enabled when you went back to 10.1? If I disable noise suppression, nobody can hear me on the other end either. They complain of a faint echoing.
