[Q] roboic voice on a brand new N2

Guys, I have another white GN2 (brand new). Currently, anyone on the other end cannot hear me on this phone. They hear garbled sound or as others call it, robotic voice.
I have tried rooting it and installed stock rooted rom. That didn't fix the issue though.
Any suggestions? Could it be the radio? Can someone point me on how to replace it, or reinstall the radio?
Thanks

Was this before you rooted and installed another ROM? If it came defective from factory why not just return and get a new one... it could be a bad mic (ie. hardware problem) so you might not be able to fix it...

Like this when I got it. I thought it could have been a hardware (mic) problem as well. But if I put it on speaker phone, the other party all of a sudden can hear me. So hardware has to be ok.
Last option would be to return, but I"m trying to avoid that.

Turn off the Autotune feature... JK I would root, backup, and factory reset to make sure it wasn't something installed. If you still have issues try to exchange.

thanks. looks like it's a bad mic. i have tried speaking the address in google navigation and it doesn't even register. even in s-voice it doesn't register anything i say.
so i called tmobile and a replacement is being sent overnight. now how do I unroot this bad boy so I can return it without issues??

I had this same problem, but mine was not fixed by putting it on speaker phone. The only way to fix it was to end and call that person again.

nothing i do now works.... so i'm just waiting for the replacement to come in. I bought 4 GN2s and sadly this is the only one with that issue....
on side note, white note 2 or the titanium grey one? The defective is white and the one I'm currently using is titanium grey? and I'm a male not female.... not sure if I'll take the white one and give the grey to my brother, or keep this and give the white to him.

Screen does not recognize S-Pen

Dear All,
Lately I'm experiencing a strange issue with my mobile. The S-Pen just stopped working. I thought at the beginning that the S-Pend is defected, but after trying it in a different Note 2 devices it worked fine. Now, the problem is in the screen, it does not recognize this Spend and neither other pens I tried on it. I have a screen protector, but the S-Pen was working fine on it before. What do you this is the reason behind this strange action??
Thanks a lot

try a hard reset.

Does the phone still detect when the s pen is taken out of/placed into the phone?
If not, it could be an issue of that coupled with s-pen battery saving being enabled.

Excellent question! Try rebooting your device. If no go there back up your needed things and factory reset/restore the device. If that fails and you are on a custom rom go back to stock and test.

Thanks a lot .. I was on an original ROM with Root enabled. I did a factory rest multiple times. i even installed the CM10.1 ROM to test it but with no luck!
And the phone recognize that the pen is pulled out when I pull out the S-Pen ..
What is meant by Hard Reset??
Thanks a ton for your support and for the fast response.

Might sound basic, but are u using magnets around it? My pen doesnt work when i have the case on, because it has a magnet on it. It may be that. Try it without the case on.
Hard reset = losing ALL of your internal storage (game data, etc), and starting afresh, like you did when u first took it out of the box. Sometimes called a factory restore/reset.

Thanks a lot for the follow up. Yes I had a case with magnet. I now removed this magnet from the case. I'm now without the magnet for almost 5 days with no luck. Does the magnet may corrupt the screen?

Its tym for you to unroot and take it to service center .

Hmmmm... I'm not an expert, but I'm quite sure that magnets don't 'corrupt ' or permanently damage the screen. As above, by aukhan, service center, I think.

its the case!
I'm not going to let my galaxy note 8.0 be with a defect because a part of the screen cannot be detected by the s-pen. After reading this thread I noticed that the part of the screen that does not work with the s-pen is where the magnet is on my case. After I removed the case, the s-pen worked perfectly.
Thanks to this thread it has spared me from lining up at the Samsung service center though I'm now off to get me a new case.

accelerometer/gyroscope problems

Hi, my screen won't auto rotate and games that feature accelerometer support do not work at all. Would you guys know if this is possibly a software issue that could be fixed by perhaps reinstalling the stock ROM or maybe in an update or is this something my nexus 7 needs to be RMAed for?
Is anyone else having this issue or is it just me? I've tried rebooting into safe mode and flashing a new kernel but neither have worked. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have your rotation locked for your auto rotate by any chance. I'm sure you already checked this but I figured I'd ask.

That's what I thought.
I guess I'll be heading out to Staples tomorrow to get it replaced.

I have this issue too. The screen always keeps landscape mode although I places the tablet vertically. However, I bought it from amazon and there is no retail stores like Staples in my country. Should I send it to ASUS Royal Club for repairing?

Got it fix just now by re-installing the stock firmware.

I have had this problem since I rooted my phone a week ago. Got it fix just now by re-installing the stock firmware.

I've just had a new Nexus 7 delivered and ran a system update.
The accelerometer doesn't seem to work on my Nexus 7 either, and AndroSensor just displays 'Waiting for event' under the accelerometer and other sections.
Am I going to have to RMA this already?

Same here, but with a 2012 Nexus 7... Has anyone fixed this without having to send it to the RMA? I mean, by software?

Fixed
I have had this problem with my Nexus 7 2013 for a while, but only today fixed it!
If it's a software problem then a factory reset should fix it.
If you want a software fix you will probably need an app like smart rotation or something!
My problem was fixed with hardware! Open the rear cover and apply some tape to the ribbon cable on the back of the battery near the ZIF connector, problem solved so far!

[Q] Battery problem

So this is the fastest way how I can introduce to you my problem - please open Attachments and see my battery history. My phone just back from the service repair. They told me that the battery has been replaced. Maybe it was big mistake that after I get my compact in hands I rooted him and restored the old ROM and now I'm worring that I just have broken next battery. Is that possible? or my phone wasn't repaired...?

Just flash a stock rom and see what happens. Maybe some combination of your old features is bad for batterys.

I have exactly the same problem. Sending of for repair tomorrow. It seemed to start when I started using Google voice but when I stopped using it the problem stayed so I think it's unrelated.

I ran into problems after installing Lollipop,now my z1c won't charge like it used to. I had it charging last night for 10 hours and it went from 11-50%, have no idea what happened. Did factory reset and even installed from the scratch again with no luck. Also I sometimes get the text power is going faster than you're charging,etc. Tried three different chargers and cables.
Lähetetty minun D5503 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

Did you experienced any water damage?

If you're asking from me,no I had a bootloop first trying to flash rooted Lollipop,don't know if that damaged something. But I've had hundreds of bootloops before so my phone should have been dead long time ago.
Lähetetty minun D5503 laitteesta Tapatalkilla

Finally succeeded charging to 100%,only able to do so by turning off phone while charging. Calibrated the battery and installed Better battery stats to see are there some bugs eating the battery like crazy.

Yeah, solved the sudden drops. Still don't get as much life as when I originally got the phone but I think thats due to apps syncing too often etc.
I'll try and post a picture in a bit.

Yep on kit kat. I thought it was software originally but it did it in recovery and also after being repaired in pc companion. There's several people on here with the same issue, I had an online chat sessionand they said send it in for repair.

Facebook and Google Play Services Keep Alive permission -> OFF helped things a lot in Lollipop, using the App Ops app from Play Store. Still getting Facebook notifications just fine.
Not sent by me.

Yea.
Syncing, checking mail automatically, keeping Wi-Fi on all the time.

So... my Asus Zenfone 6 just DIED (BEWARE BEFORE YOU BUY)

I received this phone on 1st July and today, 27th July, it just died on its own. Recently the camera module became wobbly and whenever the phone vibrates it rattles a lot.
Well, an hour ago i sent a whatsapp message to my friend, put the phone down, after a minute i picked it up to check, and lo and behold, it cant turn on anymore. It cant be battery issue because i know it had a more than 50% charge. I tried plugging in the charger and switching it on but it still doesn't work.
Called up Flipkart.com to claim my Mobile phone protection insurance . They will pick it up for repair. Hope all things goes well.
However, i am still unsure about the Swivel camera module. Dont know if it will hold up anymore seeing how it became loose so quickly. I trusted Asus, not anymore....
I made a youtube video showing its wobbly camera.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Rf24NTMS_o

Asus 6z dead
Mine is also dead, it went into a boot-loop. The wobbly camera is not an issue though its common to all devices, even reviewers have addressed this.
Flipkart just declined my request for a replacement, I went to the service center and they have told me that if it is a software issue then they will flash the new software or else they will give me a replacement.

Guys it started working again, out of nowhere.

Your video is unavailable so I can't tell if your camera is rattling more than mine. They should've implemented some kind of a lock when camera is not used and used a rubber coating or something in that camera hole so it would be at least quiet.

This happened to me too a few times. Fine one minute and the next screen will stay black. Pressing power does not do anything. You can not bott, restart you phone because nothing happens.
I am rooted and use xposed, custom kernel so I will not bother with Asus' service
What has worked for me every time is taking out the sim/SD card tray. Then powering on works.

my phone also died
This also happened to my zenfone 6 on the 28th June. Completely unresponsive (and removing the SIM tray didn't change anything). I bought it from Gearbest, who have agreed to replace it, but I'm still waiting, with no ETA so far. I loved the phone while it worked, so I'm a bit disappointed. BTW, if you don't need a selfie cam, a bit of silicone glue solves all the camera issues

Aren't you just using the Nova Prime Launcher and ASUS gestures instead of classic Navigation Bar? That could be a culprit of strange behaviour.

I was using stock standard software. The phone had been on the charger overnight, and in the morning was dead - no response to pressing any combination of power and volume buttons. I followed a set of recovery instructions from gearbest, nonw of which worked, and then they asked me to return the phone.

I know there are many people waiting for this phone to be released, or shipped, and they're wondering what the holdup is?
I think Asus built themselves a lemon. While it looks cool, and has some decent specs, and many people want one, the fact is that many of those who already received theirs are sending them back because of semi-major issues and even complete failures of the device! So I think the delay in availability is Asus scrambling to get this thing fixed before it becomes a complete flop, assuming it hasn't already! I know that my interest has basically died and I will not even consider this phone until I read that many have the phone in hand and ALL the major bugs have been squashed!

Sure.
I didn't say it would damage or break the phone, or that the phone would die. It's not even a third-party launcher error, but an ASUS gesture error that, in combination with some changes in developer settings (scaling), can cause the non-standard behavior of the launcher. This can surprise the inexperienced user and he or she may consider the phone broken. Like it was with Animation scale bug a few updates before.

I regularly attend discussion forums in several European countries about ZF6. I have encountered one case where a child threw a ZF6 into a mother's pool and one user who had one SW problem after another and constantly spammed the forum. But these problems were not device errors, but his ignorance of ZenUI and pure Android. Eventually, he bought a phone from a manufacturer he had been used to for years, and finally there is peace in the forum now.
Here at XDA it is different, most of the pseudo problems are endlessly discussed by those who have never held the ZF6 and fatal problems affect users mostly from an unnamed Asian country. Poor users from the same country most often complained about my previous Xiaomi Mi A1 with Android One about missing MIUI (!) and about slow updates (despite the fact that we have had regular monthly updates). Anyone can make his own conclusion. Most users do not deserve to use a smartphone at all because its complexity often exceeds their capabilities.
Then there are UK users complaining about slow filling of warehouse in stores and USA users who complain that the ZF6 is not on sale in their country yet.
I'm involved in the ZF6 user community in my country, and as far as I know none of them have had any fatal problem yet.
ASUS has only one problem, it did not expect such an interest and does not manage to produce in such quantity.

This is your personal pure and false speculation.

just too popular
I also think the number of actual incidences of broken zenfone 6 reports are very few, say less than 10, which is about par for the course in a new phone, and I think I've just been unlucky. The real problem here is that the phone is almost exactly what everyone has been wanting, and so every batch delivered to the retailers almost immediately sells out. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to getting my replacement, which can't come soon enough.

Actually, a friend of mine had changed a few settings from the developer options to make the phone faster. I don't remember the exact setting but after that the phone was dead.
But, the service center has fixed that issue and replace the camera also. The service center returned me the phone within 3 days (here at Pune, Maharashtra, India).

Mine is also dead, it went into a boot-loop. The wobbly camera is not an issue though its common to all devices, even reviewers have addressed this.
Flipkart just declined my request for a replacement, I went to the service center and they have told me that if it is a software issue then they will flash the new software or else they will give me a replacement.

Actually, a friend of mine had changed a few settings from the developer options to make the phone faster. I don't remember the exact setting but after that the phone was dead.

Classical tinkering with a new phone without proper knowledge. So it was user error.
"to make the phone faster" as if ZF6 is not fast enough...
