Voice Echo

Everyone that calls me complains of an echo on thier end. If I go to speakerphone the issue is gone. Anyone else?

28 views and not one comment? Lol..guess it's just my phone then. Sucks because no insurance. What would anyone recommend if I'm forced to sell my Note?

Dude change your in call sound settings theres like 5 different to choose from. "Optimized for left ear", "optimized for right ear", "clear souns" n some other ones I cant remember. Also theres the noise reduction. Tweak w all of them worth a try

Thanks..definitely have been. Nothing seems to help. Doing some google searching seems like this was a pretty common error with the Note and the GS2..but it's hit or miss. There is a fix that requires taking the phone apart that I'm not willing to do. It has something to do with the noise cancellation. I've been turning it off every call now and it seems to help, but not fix the problem. Only sure fix is to use speakerphone or hands free mic. I'm just annoyed. I shouldn't have to work around anything on a 2 month old flagship phone.

you are right...you shouldn't. have you taken it in for repair or contacted Samsung?

I haven't yet..that will probably be my next step. I don't have insurance so Sprint will probably just offer to exchange it for the $35 fee.

[Q] is this part suppose to make a clicking sound?

i bought me the samsung galaxy note 2 about a month ago and recently i noticed when i press on the part on top next to the headphones port it makes a clicking sound as it something is not in place. i removed the back cover and pressed again it still clicks. i dont know for sure if it is a problem or not but it is really annoying me.
i cant return the phone for a new one because it passed the 14 days return policy in my country but it is still under warranty status.
im worried about one thing if i send it there that they might open the phone to fix it and i dont want an open phone
so can somebody an expert in these things can tell me if it is ok to leave it like this or should i get it fixed.

I just tested this out of mine and heard the clicking. I'm sure its not supposed to but the phone is creaky in general, guess it's just a trade off you have to accept when owning the best phone in the world.

He is talking about the upper bezel.
That click is because of the double tap the bezel to return to the top of a list (in contacts or messages etc).. It's a setting from motion settings.

Yeah, I thought Samsung made devices that were durable and extremely solid, even if they felt very cheap.

No one has the power button sqweak sound?

Both my note 2 phones from hantec had this issue. Two of my friends with the at&t version do not.
My handtec phones also had the gap issue between the frame. My friends phones do not.
I dont buy phones from hantec anymore. The replacement for my note 2 was sent with open box. They told my to piss off when I complained.

Als got the clicking issue on the top of the bezel. My gap between screen and bezel is there as well. I have to live with it because my phone was bought second handedly.

I must have a lemon then, because my phone (AT&T Note II) doesn't have any squeeks, rattle, chinks or bumps.

Mic problem

So my note 2 mic is not working . Only speakerphone and bluetooth work. My question is is the mic easy to replace? Is it part of the motherboard or seperate? If its seperate anyone have a broken note 2 willing to sell? Is it weird that speakerphone works and not regular method of talking on a phone? Any help would be great. And by the way no voice apps work either ie google svoice etc. Thanks

What's funny is that if the speaker phone is working. Then in theory the Mic should b good. Because it uses the same one! I agree with the above poster, if your running a custom Rom I would go back to stock to see if that fixes your problem. Another thing I would look at is if the Mic, is clogged up with lint/dust. It happen to my brother's daughter phone. Called me saying her phone don't work, can't here her talking!! Cuz I'm the tech guy of the family, told her to try and clean out her Mic. After that she called her dad now he can here her fine.
Just my 2¢

Thanks for your help. I am on stock rom. Already faxtory reset. And tried to clean the mic hole. I'm out of ideas and don't want to take this phone apart. I use the bluetooth but it's driving me crazy.

Isn't your phone still under manufacturer warranty? Why would you pay or do this yourself?

I forgot to mention I bought this phone used and have no paperwork . So I cant do warranty I dont think.
I bought it from cl and it worked fine for a few days . Before you say I got ripped off I only paid 100 cash + a galaxy s1. So even with the 25 $ mic still came out clean . Phoneis mint except non working mic .

I work for a cell phone retailer as a repair technician and warranty repair is free lol. I can see any manufacturer charging for shipping though, unless you complain enough. The warranty follows the device not the phone number

Well after over a month I finally got my note 2 back. .. They sent it back to me broken so I sent it back and finally got it yesterday. They replaced the pba which is the mother board ... It works great and glad to be back

Sorry to revive this thread, but I'm having the same issue. Completely stock, mic works with speakerphone and obviously bluetooth, but not on normal calls.
Thoughts?

[Q] phone after note2

I am atierd of proximity sensor issue.i cant get rid of it.i dont know about you guys how you living with it.but I want to upgarede my device.which one.

Not sure what sensor trouble your having but other than note 3 think I would have htc one or s4
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app

I think that i have the same problem but I noticed its caused by viber..so basically Exit from viber (by pressing exit button not exiting through home button or back key) than restart your device and its Boom its gone (not forever but for a long time..lol) mine happens once a week so I'm happy with that

It's like having an adorable illiterate pet

Either you have a hardware issue, in which case claim warranty. Or just do a clean wipe and restart. Are you rooted?
Because that's a silly reason to switch phones. I totally get if you need to upgrade to some other phone - but if this is your sole reason, explore other options before you do.

This failure of screen to come back after a call has been reported by others. I doubt it's hardware.

Are you on stock ROM?

If it's software, it's defo fixable. I haven't faced this issue on any ROM/Kernel combo I've tried thus far.
Okay scratch that, I did face it once on X Note IIRC. Did a full wipe and everything works well to date.

[Q] Unknown hole ?

Hello, I'm sporting N5110 version, no LTE or 3g so it doesn't have a phone functionality. But there is something I don't know what is this for? A little hole above power button. Look like a mic hole, if I get one, at the bottom side next to the right speaker. I'm using gel cover for my Note and there are two holes in it: one for mic (if I get one) and other one above power button. I took a look and I found that there is this tiny hole.
What is it for?

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 N5110 and the Galaxy Note 8.0 N5120 are almost identical with the only difference that the N5110 is WIFI only and the N5120 supports 3G, LTE & Cellular Network and IMHO Samsung just used the same template for both devices

I know what speaker is, I know what microphone is but what tha hell is speakerphone? What is its purpose?

It doesn't apply to the N5110 "your model"

Well, it seems like it may! Because i have that hole and I don't have a hole for mic on the bottom side. I know whag are you talking abut, that all Note 8's have same chasis, just different features. But it seems like they don't, otherwise I should get prop hole for mic, too, but I haven't.
Anyway, I have it or not, can't you answer my question, which wasn't if I have something or nor but what is speakerphone?

Speakerphone is nothing more then a microphone that allows you to hold the phone a little distance away from your face when in a phone call, this can either be half-duplex "one way" or full-duplex "two way" but since the N5110 is WIFI only this feature is not relevant for the device since it cannot make phone calls, now moving forward.
I do apologize for my ignorance, I took my N5110 out of its case and looked to see if it had a microphone hole located at the bottom and realized that I indeed did not have a microphone there either, so having said that I can only come to the conclusion that the microphone/speakerphone hole on the side located above the power button is the microphone for the N5110 to be used for lets say S-voice, video recordings or Skype.
That is about as good of an explanation I can give
Hoping this was a much better answer
