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?

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.

Opinions are what I'm looking. The only specification I made was a good call quality build. Everything else is up in the air
And thanks I will consider that combination

hmm
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 Everyone complains on call quality in ROMs but never update their outdated radio.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.

Did you use high-end headphones before and after? thats the only way you'll hear a difference
i did... 3 diff set for that matter and i didnt notice any difference , now with the actual rom and the ware installed it made a huge diff even with crappy headsets. had to tune down all setting it was so loud lol!!

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

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
My co worked who used to have an ET4G and now has a Galaxy Nexus stumbled upon this MOD. Knowing how must of us running any jb ROM have low headphones/aux issues I thought I could post this to try and help.
There is a tiny problem though.... I flashed this last night. I successfully booted my phone but once everything loaded my phone froze up and just powered cycled. I tryied flashing it with different gapps combinations and different jb ROMs. So with that said... do any of you devs or anyone that want to try to modify this MOD for our phones?? Maybe it will bring a solution this this bug?
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to try this and provide some input

Might be a kernel thing? Who knows.
Glad to know I wasn't the only one with the audio problem but from my short testing in my car it seemed to only be music related, I'm using double twist. When I got a text message the ringtone was alot louder than the music itself and the volume setting on that was only around half as loud. Things use to be the other way around on ICS. Like someone else posted hopefully there can be a fix soon because I'm loving JB.
I tried this mod on my Nexus 7 and I didnt notice a difference
Not sure why it didnt increase volume for you. Worked just fine for me.

The latest cm10 Nightlies fixed all of the sound problems
Sent from my E4GT by using THE FORCE
From what I can tell from my testing on the E4GT, your headphone and bluetooth volumes are tied to the speaker media volume originally. I haven't seen it in any other builds of CM10, but it seems fairly common in the E4gT's roms.
Where are the nightly builds posted? I don't see it on thier official site

This is not true ... Pandora and/or any other music related app still has the problem, even Youtube, however, everything else is topnoth in CM10. We all hope it gets fixed quickly. Im running CM10 9/24 nightly.

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

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.

I clean flashed the 4.2.1 build on my fiancee's phone last week and she has been saying that everyone has mentioned to her an echo/robotic/underwater sound on her calls?
I see loads of threads that have said that the CM10.1 and the AOKP 4.2.1 have this remedied but hers doesn't seem to be any better.
Is there a kernel suggestion like with the All-Star kernel that fixed the call echo?
Is it just me or is there any suggestions? I'm using the S3 so the Hercules is a little foreign to me as far as the ins and outs of these roms.
When I get a little time with her phone I'm going to update to the newest 4.2.2 nightly that AOKP just released.

Try this, this might fix it: go to the Dialer, go on settings,go down and look for Noise Suppression and make sure it's checked, should be right below TTY. Hope that helps! :good::laugh:

Thanks for the tip. I'll have her try that tomorrow when I see her.
Still going to flash 4.2.2 but I'd like to take care of this before I do.
It probably won't work though... I recommend touchwiz roms. Especially embryo 6.3. I have not had call echo at all, and I had it on all aosp roms.
