Call quality of custom ROMs vs Stock - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I got my replacement phone (from insurance claim) today and all three callers say that the call quality is much better than usual.
I'm wondering if I had poor call quality on my previous phone because I flash about 2 ROMS a month or because it was dropped a few times.
I planned on rooting and flashing Jedi Jelly today but now I'm not too sure.
If I'm being too paranoid just call me out but i want to be cautious.

Could have been hardware or software related. The best way to get a for sure answer is to make a backup and flash a rom. If you get bad results, restore the backup.

I also got a replacement phone today in the mail and I have noticed that the manufature date is january 2013! which means the phones are very new. Mine is made in china, its possible that the parts they are using now are the same model but maybe something is different inside. The factory probably uses whatever parts are available and i too have notice a much better gps signal indoors so maybe now the s2 has some newer guts.

where is the manufacture date located?

roms!!!!!!! especially on jelly bean ports "whenever i go back to stock i notice better call quality "

It's underneath the battery. It has the month and year

Thru my experience, I had echo problems on the majority of custom roms... especially jb roms. After about 5 months of flashing just about every rom, I went back to an ics rom (infamous to be exact) and have had no problems since. At one point I went back to stock unrooted and experienced no call issues and amazing battery life. Infamous has done exactly the same thing for me that's why I'm sticking to it.
Btw, I'm not knocking on any of the devs here as their work has always been greatly appreciated so hopefully I didn't offend anyone.

Skyrocket-based kernels do not work well. AOSP/CM-based ROMs all have problems with SGS2 talker quality, far-end listener echo, or both. AOSP/CM kernels that use H0tcakez, kko, or ASDK kernels fix the echo problem. The SGS2 talker quality problem can be fixed by setting Phone -> Settings, "Noise Suppression" to ENABLE. After setting Noise Suppression, you may have to reboot if your ROM settings don't seem to stick. While there definitely has been progress, there is more work to be done.

poor call quality
Issue: poor call quality (muffled, cloudy, foggy) after I flashed my phone from ICS (4.0.4) to JB (4.1 or higher). The original ROM that came with the phone had the best quality.
Attempted:
Flashing: ATT-SGH-I727-UCLL3-STOCK-odexed-cwm.zip :: worst quality, cm-10.0.0-skyrocket.zip :: bad quality, cm-10.1-20130221-NIGHTLY-skyrocket.zip :: bad quality, ATT-UCLF6-cwm5.zip :: OK quality, ATT-UCLI3-odexed-cwm.zip :: OK quality, I727-UCLF6-071212.zip :: worst quality. I wiped the cache, and data. I even wiped the dalvik cache. Other times I did not with the same ROM.
Radios: I tried different Radios (UCLI3 & UCLF6) and did not notice a difference in call quality. Even with the original ROM was loaded, I flashed the Radio (UCLI3 & UCLF6) and not notice a difference. I believe the Radios are not related to the call quality. Is this true or am I missing something?
Settings: I disabled noise suppression, in the versions that supported that feature, which made the quality better but not as good as the original. I also disabled the extra volume feature, in the versions that support that feature, and that also made the quality better but not as good as the original.
Info: I have a Samsung S II Skyrocket (SGH-I727) and use AT&T. The signal strength seems consistent no matter the ROM is loaded.
Currently, besides my original ROM – which is the best call quality, the ATT-UCLF6-cwm5.zip & ATT-UCLI3-odexed-cwm.zip have the best call quality. Can anyone recommend an Android 4.2.x ROM that may have the best radios and/or kernel to alleviate this issue?
Thank you!

Great post! I was going to start flashing today but after seeing this thread I'm going to hold off until the official Jelly Bean from Koodo or Telus. I thought that all ROMs would interact with hardware in the same way! I enjoy the call quality I currently have clear and crisp. Thanks All!

Could it be an issue within the kernel not the radio?

After upping to P.A.C. 's 4.2.2 I wa told by someone (who I could hear perfectly" that they were having a hard time understanding me.
Noise Suppression was ENABLED, trying it disabled now.
Having searched around, and read this thread (thus the quotes) I've realized that advice can vary a fair bit! haha.
Well see what happens.
Not about to go back down to that old school ICS Telus is offering here in Canada. Took ages just for that and doesn't look like anything else is coming anytime soon.
EDIT: Noise Suppression was ENABLED by default. I disabled, called a friend and was told it sounded bad. RE-ENABLED and called back, was told it sounded good. Reboots in between each change/call.
Even if enabled maybe switch of, reboot, switch on and reboot?? Worth a shot anyways.

hmm I'll try this then post if working with me as well
ok the call quality is much better,I disabled the noise suppression then re-enabled like you did with reboots every time,I'll testing with other calls i hope problem solved because i love my AAMOD rom the only thing i changed was the radio from t989UVLI1 to T989UVLI4

I'm glad I searched for this thread and found people with similar issues. I rarely carry on long phone conversations, but when I do, I'd prefer the other person not have to strain to hear me. The call quality issue that I run into the most is "you sound distant/quiet" and people generally asking me to speak up when I'm already talking awkwardly loud to try and appease the issue. An iteration of this call problem has been persistent for me in every ROM/Kernel combo since 4.1.2 build bases. Heck even CM10.00 stable had problems for me. Some people say the Cerux Kernel helps but I've yet to see that ring true. I've tried the enabling/disabling noise suppression, with reboots, and still the problem exists.
I hate to switch from a solid build strictly because of call quality issues, but it is extremely annoying having to repeat myself or speak really loud for someone to hear me.
Hopefully this gets more attention and resolutions in the near future as I'd REALLY hate to go all the way back to an ICS based build. Too many new features I've grown accustomed to.

idk if it was just me but my calls have always been choppy on stock rom.

Currently using Embryo 6.8, stock radio on Koodo, incoming calls are crisp and clear, no complaints on the other end, usually a landline or Rogers phone. Usually the second question I ask the receiver, do I sound clear...always yes.

Consistent call quality complaints with 2 GS2's...
I got a second t989 thinking my phone was messed up. Rooted the second newer model and it's got the same call quality complaints. I could deal with just about any issue not working except call quality. Can't believe this isn't fixed yet.
I'm also speaking of 10.0, not 10.1.
I just don't have the stomach to flash radios and kernels etc to find a fix. Hopefully a stable 10.1 will fix the issue.

Running S2 I9100
Since in the section specific for my phone, isn't a good thread like this (didnt find it, if it exists), I'm posting here.
Got the same issue. Running CM10.1.3 on my I9100. I was trying different radio's, but no improvement in call quality.
Trying different Kernels.

Advantages of Gingerbread over Froyo?

So I was wondering if anyone could lie out a few points of the differences or advantages between these 2 versions?
I've noticed a lot of GB ROM's are slower and a bit more "heavy" but that may just be due to them just coming out and still having a lot of work to be done with them to optimize them for speed and battery life.
As of now I'm perfectly happy with Froyo and see no reason to switch, but still would like to know what advantages Gingerbread brings to the table.
You need to try cm7.

With Gingerbread your screen has that awesome on/off animation.
I know gingerbread is supposed to have built-in VOIP calling with Google Voice. Does that work with CM7? If that did, I could totally reduce my calling plan!

hah agreed, I guess there isn't a whole lot significant about the gingerbread release, I may be sticking with Froyo for a while if that's the case.
Also I've actually tried out CM7 before (several weeks ago) when it was very first released.
The screen on/off was pretty cool for the first day or so, but it started to bug me after a while and I kinda wished there was a way to disable it.
The VOIP calling with google voice has been available on the incredible for a while now, or at least I thought it had been. I never used it because of what a pain it is to switch back off of google voice, not to mention you are required to have a 3G connection or else you're out of luck and your phone is useless.
There are a lot of optimizations made to the whole android framework form what I gathered reading the android dev blog. They were targetting UI responsiveness which is definitely an issue in android as compared to iOS. I know that all of that is definitely better from my brief play with CM7 but I think it still has a long way to go to be as good as I want it to be. I also kind of like the orange glow that appears when you scroll lists, its a subtle but nice improvement.

I'm not sure how GB roms could feel heavier/slower, especially with CM7. I'd agree with you if you were talking about sense because its a bit bloated.
I'd suggest try CM7 again, RC2 with Chad's latest 37.2 kernel. Give it time to sync up with Google then play around with it. I'm sure you wont be disappointed. Unless you are a super sense fan
P.S. you can turn off the screen animation in CM settings. In the display menu.

Alright I guess I'll be giving CM7 another go, cheers for the feedback.
Only reason why I haven't tried CM7 is no 720p recording, not complaining just stating. Maybe im being a stickler but I like to have all options on the roms I run.
I honestly have noticed any differences in speed or responsiveness. I have tried a few gingerbread roms not sure if its because they are in early stages or not, but so far it doesn't live up to the hype in my book.
If I am posting this, I'm probably pooping.
Is it just me or does CM7 have crazy good sound quality. And the bass is extremely good as well, used dsp manager to boost base and it sounds as close as I have heard to bose (but still not as good as the great bose)
There are some small things that have bothered me with Gingerbread... for example I miss the sense Camera.apk, and of course 720p. But I went back to things such as Sense and MIUI, and I couldn't last 24 hours on them. I was originally between Evervolv and OMGB... then I stuck with OMFGB. CM7 RC2.5 is what I'm running now, and may I say it's pretty amazing. But I am gonna have to try out the new OMGB 1.1.0 build tomorrow though
I guess it's just the overall feel of Gingerbread. Oh, and optimization and web browsing is quite a bit faster I have noticed.'

Are you saying the built in phone speaker sounds like BOSE? That I would believe
Anyway is the sound quality via BT and headphone jack actually better? This would be something that might interest me.
I found CM7 to work very well, even better than SkyRaider IMHO, however I LOVE what JuiceDefender does for my battery - and it's not compatible with Gingerbread. As soon as that is released, I will have a semi-tough descision to make.
Scott
Just switched to CM7 from warm Z and loving it (Pandora sounded like garbage). Very responsive to say the least, GB seems to be quite a treat.
BT tends to leave out a lot of bass, but you can help correct it by using DSP manager.
The kernel plays a bit part in this area as well, chad's incredikernel has some audio boosts (especially for the earpiece) that I like. I know the stock earpiece volume was formerly way too low in crowds or even moderately loud situations.

[Q] ICS Daily Driverable¿?

I use my phone day to day for school and work and want to know if any of the ICS roms are capable of being a daily driver. Enough that the bugs dont hault usage dramatically. If so suggestions on which ?

The reason I had to go back to gingerbread is because I rely on my phone all day long, and my battery died in 8 hours with ICS.

easydoesit v2.2 was excellent for me...but i reverted back to gb...dont mind waiting for a fully working ICS
if you dont have the call echo issue then the roms should be fine..seems to be hit or miss with some people...i didnt experience it with easydoesit2.2
I've been using ravers latest black version the last couple days and it easily lasts me through the day with very minor issues, rotation and power off/reset.
I tried all of the ICS builds and some are better than others. The last one I used was Easydoesit. I could live with the rotation issue and the power off/reboot issue, but I could not live with the call echo issue. The echo happens to the person you are talking to. They can hear themselves talking. Almost everyone I talked with on the phone would complain about the echoing. I have customers that call me on a daily basis so the echo issue is a deal breaker. Im sticking with gingerbread until ICS ROMs are more stable.

I've been flashing around the last few days. The ics I liked the most is ravers. I'm running it now. Ofcourse no wifi no rotation. But reboot works. Audio on the other end sucks. That didn't bother me. I had issues with video playback. Great battery Gallery worked. If you read though the threads you'll see some of the devs helping others. They well have a stable build soon. I would make a nand of your current rom and give ravers rc3 a go if you don't dig, flash your nand backup.
Wipe really good to prevent stupid ass issues! !
I too went back to gb. Yeah the roms were pretty stable but at the moment gb roms are best in my opinion

The case is the reason you have a bad echo. The case puts a "tunnel" around the mic, and because of a nasty bug, the mic doesn't know how to handle it. I was talking to my wife and she complained about the echo, I took my case off and the call went smooth from there. Its a bug that will get fixed, but for now it sucks.

Just tested this theory And it does'nt work for me. I use the d30 case and took it off during the call and no help also checked off noise reduction in the soft menu key while in call nothing!

I'm running black edition and it works great. Enough battery life for a day worth of tech support calls and faster than Buck Rodgers!
The only issues I had were the echoing (ditched the D3O case and it went away) and the auto rotate and I fixed that with a quick little Tasker profile. Now my auto rotate works perfect.
Having a case on the phone does not cause the echo problem on these ics roms. That is the most idiotic thing I have ever heard. I personally don't use a case and my callers complain about it on every call. I don't mean to sound like a ****, but I'm sick of people thinking that all you need to do is take your case off and the echo magically disappears. It is 100% the rom/kernel that we are using. Peace!

I'm on foxstar and have no echo problems. Mobile hotspot wasn't working but someonw posted a fix.
I've been playin' around w/ a few of 'em also, so far the best I've found = (Rom) IML74K_Ics_Perfection (Fully ICS Themed) 04.03.12 (Fixed Tweaks). Been using it as my DD and not had any issues. I hardly use auto-rotate, and theres an app for that, same goes for the power/restart function, and I haven't had any call quality / echo issues reported w/ this rom at all. Battery life isn't the greatest, about 8-10hrs of frequent use, but I use Juice Defender or whatever it's called to get the most out of it. I happen to have a charger damn near wherever I go, so I don't notice it much
All the other roms I've tried haven't allowed me to change LCD density (dumb, but important to me) and have had freezing / lag issues for me. Best of luck on whichever you choose!
TL/DR So far I haven't noticed anything that would steer the average user away from using it!

what tasker profile did you use for auto-rotate? and how does it work conceptually?
mind explaining please...does it work on the camera orientation too? got really tired to flipping pics after taking them...its mainly the only reason i reverted back to GB.
I installed and was using IML74K_Ics_Perfection RC2 for a day, but had to revert back to rooted stock. This particular rom was great, overal very smooth and snappy, but some little things here and there were bugging me. As far as i understand it will be the same no matter what you install untill we get a proler kernel. Things like shutdown/reboot, skype not working, rotation, wifi calling etc.
But if things above are not a big deal for you, I can honestly recommend this rom. Probably will not find better

Call Quality Differences: AOSP vs Sense

Hi All,
In my experience so far with the dinc2, I've used several Sense as well as AOSP roms. Though I prefer AOSP overall, I did notice that when I used Sense roms, the call quality seemed a bit better / different when using the built-in earpiece (aka non-headset, non-speakerphone).
There was something about it - perhaps I could hear my own voice better through the earpiece, or the person on the other end sounded clearer; I can't adequately describe what it was. I do know that the Dinc2 has multiple mics for sound-cancellation; is this a feature that is present in Sense that didn't make it over to AOSP? Or is the way the sound is processed just different in each?
Also, other features like raising the ringer volume when the phone is in your pocket and then lowering it when you pick up your phone to answer a call, or switching to speakerphone automatically when the phone is placed screen down on a surface - is there a particular reason these features were never ported over to AOSP?

Part of the reason the call quality is different is because of the differences in the two kernels. Some of the AOSP kernels have a lower call volume and others have better call volume. Most of the more recent AOSP kernels have good volumes overall. Im currently running tiamats most recent kernel and my call quality is just as good as sense.

[Q] How is bluetooth working on your ROM?

I have searched, read and googled but don't feel as though I've gotten a solid response because of the rather light usage of Bluetooth with most users talking about it. The reason for posting this is that I've tried multiple ROM's since I got the phone a month ago but have found that the Stock ROM has been not only the least of a hassle but also the most reliable in terms of connecting to the proper devices. The only thing I really use my Bluetooth for is connecting to my car stereo, a Sony, and I've continued to have problems with the ROM's that users have reported stable use and while I know mileage varies, one of the largest issues I've had is maintaining a connection using the various music apps.
Now, I know they've said they're waiting on source and that some have been fixed but I was hoping to find someone who uses the stereo connection as frequently as I do (daily use for my drive to and from work, about 35 minutes each way, as well as normal driving to SF during the weekend). I don't heavily mod my phone nor do I use a ton of apps, my use is pretty much text/phone/music with the occasional youtube video and of course browsing the internet.
Here are the ROM's I've used (eventually returning to stock due to a lack of reliability with Bluetooth):
CM10
CM9
AOKP
Paranoid
Leaked JB \
I've had the most luck with these 2, Bluetooth connection is recognized quickly and super reliable
Stock /
I'm not looking to flame, be flamed or stir up a hornets nest, just looking for input from those who are using the current nightlies because when I flash roms I tend to do full wipes to avoid issues so I'd like to minimize how many times I flash =)

Since it's tw based you get all the tw features, basically all the main selling points of the phone.

I use FreeGS as well. I like it because graphically, it is stock (I'm not a fan of the color themes), but under the hood you have lots of tweaks for better battery, accurate reporting of your data connection, etc.
I have no problems with my Bluetooth, either.
I wonder if it IS an AOSP issue, since solo the ROMS you mentioned were AOSP...

Jellybean ROMs with no call echo? Any solutions for this issue?

First of all, I'm sorry if this has been asked before or not but I I wasn't able to find any proper solutions for the issue yet. I just wanted to ask that is there a solution to the call echo? I'm currently on tweakwiz v2 and I love the ROM but it still it has the call echo issue.
Also are there any jb ROMs that don't have this issue?

From what I've read there is something about there audio try lowering the volume might help also. I've been running aosp so idk about skyrocket ROMs. Lowering call volume might help
I recently switched over to Jedi Jelly 3.1 from the awesome Tweakwiz v2 and have tested it out with no echo during my calls. The people I have called or been called by said they hear me loud and clear. Noise suppression is enabled for me.
Official SlimBean 3.1.0 works flawlessly with no echo. I mean some say its case by case but maybe it will work on yours. I've been running it all day, made a few calls, flashed JediMindTrix and reflashed CM10, and then back to slim bean and still no issues, including no echo
Recently got my phone replaced because the original one fell in liquids.
I remember the original phone an echo. I enabled Noise Suppression on the device. Didn't make much difference, the echo was still there.
The new GS2 that arrived was already ICS ROM. I just flashed my JB CM10.1 to the new phone. Tested speaker, and there is no echo. The one who hears the echo is the person on speaker. I've started using speaker more and more. Who knows.
Maybe it the hardware. Maybe its the noise suppression. Maybe its the new phone. The original GS2 (Water damaged) had Gingerbread. I flashed ICS ROM using ODIN. Plus it was made in Taiwan. The replacement device, made in China.
Just my experience. Finally have a new GS2, but had to pay the insurance deductable.
Can't really say what happened and why it works now. But hey, can't complain.

Official SlimBean 3.1.0 works flawlessly with no echo. I mean some say its case by case but maybe it will work on yours. I've been running it all day, made a few calls, flashed JediMindTrix and reflashed CM10, and then back to slim bean and still no issues, including no echo

I agree. I decided to switch back to 3.1.0 due to the great battery life and lack of echo. The Touchwiz 4.1.2 ROMs are fun and have great potential. I will be waiting until Tweakwiz v3 comes out before I flash back to Touchwiz.
