I was experiencing the widely reported call distortion and people being unable to hear me when making calls. I think I found the fix. When you place a call, pull up the menu and turn off the noise filter. Did this and haven't had a problem since with multiple ROMs.

This post title is confusing it makes it look like you have the fix although i have never had any call distortion is it during WiFi calls? what rom are you using....
I too was having that problem and was making all calls via speaker as the issue did not present while using the speaker. I can confirm that disabling noise reduction did the trick.
Phone (like you are making a call)
Menu Button
Go to call setting
Go to additional settings
Disable Noise Reduction
It is also being reported that capping your overclock at 1.5 eliminates the problem as well. The rom/kernel gods are working on the issue.
I've used a few ROMs ranging from Frosty to Sonic and I am now on CM10. Turning the noise reduction has worked with the distortion issue on all the ROMs I've used. My WiFi calling on CM10 works fine as well.

Woah, you should go collect your $350 then.
Flashed Wicked 2.1 a couple days ago and have not had to disable noise reduction.

This is ridiculous... I've had this problem for over a year on multiple phones. I'm surprised I'm still using it. I just don't even listen to my vm anymore.
Anyone know what is causing the low volume bug? Any known fixes? I get low volume on both the ear-piece and on speakerphone. I've tried turning up all my volume levels and it is still awful. Any ideas?

Nobody?? Is anyone else having this problem?
Seems to be a Google app issue...I had this same problem on roms and stock for ICS but didn't see it on GB. What are you running on your phone,setup-wise?

Still running an EL29 rom.
Yeah I'm pretty sure its the app, has nothing to do with the phone or setup.

I have the same issue with the Sprint Visual Voicemail app. Most voicemails are recorded so low that you cannot hear them (with the app). I've gotten into the habit of just calling voicemail to listen to the message instead.
This JUST started happening to me as well.
I've been running Gvoice on my androids since my very first HTC G1, and never experienced this issue until this week.
The app was working fine, voicemail playback was loud as the rest of the phone, speaker or headset.
Then later on in the day I play another one back, and it sounds like olden times, when in the silence during a telephone call you could occasionally hear AM Radio being picked up by the phone wires, very faintly.
I de-registered my phone with g-voice, cleared app data and uninstalled gvoice app, rebooted. Re-installed gvoice app, re-registered phone with gvoice, re-forwarded calls, and set the app back up, no luck.
This is horrible. I actually listened to voicemails on my phone before. I don't want to go back to using ATT's crappy default voicemail system.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? If it's an app setting, how did it "all of a sudden" fail?

Try "reducing" the sound below the mid-level
I am on AOKP milestone 6 and noticed the same low volume in Skype, Google Voice (voicemail), and Sprint Voicemail. After some tinkering I noticed that reducing the volume to a little below mid level actually brings back the sound. I am not sure if this is something specific to my phone, but you might want to try the same if you are experiencing this issue.

thanks for this! this worked for me, but I was wondering if anyone else was able to figure out why this was happening. Adjusting volume is easy enough, just a little annoying.
Google just needs to update the app. Happens to me too on aokp and aosp jb.

I have mad echo on CM9/CM10, not for me, rather for the person on the other end whenever I am using speakerphone. It is only with AOSP based ROMs, not Touchwiz based ROMs. Touchwiz based ROMs work perfectly.

same problem here with echo in speakerphone mode, running CM9
same problem here, friends complaining about huge echo when i'm in speakerphone mode, they say it's their own voice they hear echoing.
i would assume this is an issue of echo cancellation missing when speakerphone mode is active.
ie. sound from my phone's speaker feeding back into the phone's microphone.
Currently running:
CM9 nightly 2012-08-19 mtd on SGS i9000 international.
with icy glitch kernel for the overclocking.
I should also note that i have installed the sipdroid app, could this interfere with the speakerphone?

The same issue was just reported to me on my Galaxy S (i9000), running last nightly build of CM10, so it's not just S2 issue.
Edit: I checked i9000 CM10 forum and found the solution. In Advanced Settings -> In-Call Volume Controls -> Speakerphone Mic -> reduced it from 31 to about 18. The other side can still hear me well, however the echo disappeared.
Did you try disabling "noise cancellation" in the dialers settings? Worked for me.

My parents have been complaining about call quality. Basically they cannot understand what I'm saying most or the time.
I'm running the jb nightly
Any suggestions to fix it or any or you experiencing the same problem

I think I might be possibly having the same issue. I get complaints about call quality randomly. It's only some calls some of the time. Usually the person on the other end complains about an echo. if I hang up and call back it usually resolves it.
Is your problem intermittent or all the time?
Edit: Running stock ICS 4.0.3.
I know it. Skype quality is very fine. But the normal calls are a so bad. Open the call window -> go in the option menu and de/activate the (i dont know the word in english) "Noise suppression". Test both. After the change it should working correctly.
You can check your microphone. Do a test call with skype or some other internet call app.

Noise suppression works well on the latest CM 9.1 and AOKP builds and ICS 4.0.4 from my experience. Everything else, I can't really vouch for.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
Options:
1. try different modems
2. try different kernels
3. make sure noise suppression is checked off
4. try different phone.apks
Now here is something that some dont realize but next time you are on a call and use call waiting, when you come back to the person on the original call ask if your call quality has changed. It is an issue if you go from one call to another in AOSP based roms it seems to re-create the underwater muffled sound. If you dont have this happen to you then you are lucky but I have tried this on a few of my friends phone with the same result
Edit: OP ya gotta search next time this has to be the number 1 or 2 asked question in here
I was plagued with these problems as well. No matter what rom or setup I had it never got better. Got a warranty replacement and problem solved. Hopefully it's not that but a brand spanking new device is always cool either way.

My device has no in-call sound and sends no microphone sound. I hear no sound from the other line, and others report that they cannot hear anything from my end. I am running the latest Paranoid Android. What are some steps I could take to troubleshoot this issue?

Flash a TW ROM, to see it's not ROM related
I've had issues like that when I flashed certain radios, so if you've recently changed yours, that might be it. Other than that, I don't know, sorry.
Russian smashed across the interwebz from my T-Mobile Galaxy S2. Please hit thanks if I helped.
If you just reboot/turn on your phone, wait for it to finish settling (wait for 3-5 minutes) before using your phone. I just found out that I had no call sound because I was rushing on using it as soon as I turned it on.

I got Call Recording working on my m919 TMO 4.4.2 with Fenny's Stock Rom v1.3 using Xposed and then the xposed module and then the S4/S5 app.
But it plays the recording through the speakerphone (so everyone can hear it, no privacy)
.
Is there any way to toggle all sound/music from the speakerphone speaker to the normal phone speaker (the one you use when you put your ear to the phone).
That would be cool, like add it the the toggle menu where wifi, gps, and everything else is...?
Or anything else that can do it?
It should be the normal speaker, how are you playing the recording?

ohhh, call record button wont work with wifi calls. is that a bug in my phone or are we never allowed to record wifi calls?
I don't use call recording so I can't say, however I have recorded one call before and it was fine, but can't remember if it was over WiFi

I meant I want to switch all sound from the speakerphone speaker, to the phone speaker (the one you use when you put your ear to the phone).
Any way to do that?
Is the issue with the recording playback or all audio is playing through the speakerphone?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk
There is no issue. The phone works exactly like it is supposed to.
I'm just asking, if there was any way to get all sound/audio/music to go to the phone speaker (the one on top/front of the phone), instead of the speakerphone on the back/bottom?
Oh ok, yeah I'm sure there is a way but I haven't seen anything regarding this.. Hopefully someone else can help
