terrible echo during calls

Hi,
I got the XDA Diamond Pro (Touch Pro O2 germany) yesterday.
During a call,the phone generates a terrible, slightly timeshifted echo of the own voice. The voice of the other person is normal and the other person doesnt hear an echo. I have tried it several times with different persons and networks (mobile + landline)...always the same phenomenon...sometimes more or less.
Is this normal with the Touch Pro? Do you also have this echo while making a call?
regards

(sorry, my english is probably not the best)

Nobody with the same problem? Are your Touch Pros without echos?

No prob for me. Never heard something similar. What about your signal strength? Do you have good reception?

No problem here aswell.
tried a hard-reset already? I noticed that my TP worked better after I did a hard-reset (more stable and quicker), dunno why though.

Thank you for the replys!
So it seems that my device is not working properly :-(
It´s already on the way back to the provider.
regards

Holy crap! I just got another exchanged fuze and it's having the same issue. I'll try flashing to a new rom and see if that works.

When I first got the phone I noticed that my voice would echo but it stopped happening on its own. I think it was occurring because of bad reception. At that time my phone was having major problems with the data connection also and I figured it had something to do with ATT's towers.

I have experienced this echo, too, but considered it to come from reception problems as it does not happen on a regular basis. I.e. some calls are experiencing this echo, some do not.

I assume you mean flashing another radio rom, right? I have this issue on my Fuze as well. I flashed to NATF's rom, but am still running the stock radio rom that came with my phone: 1.02.25.32.
Did a different radio rom help you??

I changed my radio to 1.08.25.20, but I still have the echo. Do you think this is a hardware or software issue? Thanks!

I had the same problem I think with mine. It went away after a while when I was using NATF v2.2 but then when I flashed to v2.3 it came back. This was because the incall volume went down. So increase the volume when you're in a call and that should fix it.

I'm not sure if this is the same problem, but the same thing has happened to me with both the Fuze and the Tilt. What I think the issue was though was that there was a slight lag between the time I said something and the time the sound came out of the earpiece on the other phone. The other phone's mic would pickup the sound of my voice and send it back to me. Very annoying. The problem was always solved when the person I was talking to switched to headset.

Same issue
I am experiencing the same issue, but it does seem to come and go depending on the in-call volume settings.
Obviously, no problems on speakerphone, which I use frequently.

Stock Radio, Stock Rom, no bloat

I just switched away from NATF v2.3 to aruppenthal's ver2 final ROM and the echo has cleared up! Thought I'd share in case others want to try...

since you know what a radio is and you have flashed roms , im guessing you've tried hard reseting ? in that case it may be a hardware problem or a wiring problem .

how do u figure?
when i first flashed the rom, i did everything i was suppse to.

I had a similar problem after I flashed 4.4, but it went away for me on future versions. To make the volume louder during calls (and overall too), I installed the Audio_Lighter_Boost.cab from aruppenthal's rom thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467592#6
Just install the cab and soft reset. If it is still not loud enough for you, follow the directions for the AudioPara3.

phone call problem =[

So my thunderbolt has been overall great but i have this problem where if someone calls me they cant hear me but i can hear them and i can hear myself in my own speaker. is it a setting problem? i also flashed the latest radio for GB on the Infected Synergy Rom.

I've literally had that same issue on almost every device I've used on Verizon and Alltel at some point. Some areas it's happened a lot in, other almost never. I'm hesitant to say it's the device because of my experience. I think it's something quirky with the network. For me, if I just call them back it works fine. It used to happen almost every time I called my Mom. Second call was a charm though. Then it mostly stopped... about the time she got off that damn Motorola and onto a BlackBerry... but it still happens occasionally.

yeah =[ ive never had this problem though and its constantly doing it because i was originally on cm7 but it started to i flashed another rom and it worked for a couple of calls at first but now no calls go through and im afraid to call verizon since im rooted but idk what to do =[ thanked you btw

eh.... I've called them with issues on both my rooted HTCs. It's never been a problem. I've talked to guys there about their rooted Androids. If they tell you to do this or that, either play super-stupid or BS your way through it and get them to put a work order out to check out things on their end. If that doesn't solve it, then it's time to go back to stock and exchange some hardware or something.

i was just experimenting and it turns out after like 25 secs they could hear me but im still lost on why

No sound when making call on CM7

I installed the lastest CM7 (R9B) and when I make a call, I can't hear the other person, but they can hear me. It was working perfectly fine but it just all of a sudden started. Any one had this problem? Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Finally
Yes, I have been trying to figure out a fix for this all day but can't find one. This happen to me on the Lewa rom as well as CM7. I went back to the old miui rom so I can't help but just stating I got the same problems

I also had this problem and i was running Lewa at the time but i found a way around it only a temp fix. When you answer a call or make a call, once you know you are connected press up on the volume button. This worked for me give it a shot

Volume goes away after phone calls

Anyone know waht is causing the volume level to go WAY down after I place, or receive a phone call. I love the phone very much but this is driving me crazy! I'm on T-Mobile which is working fine. I have to use the Digits app at home to make calls. But no mater if I use Digits or not, if I make or receive a call the loudness of anything on the phone basically goes away. System sounds, YouTube, Iheart radio.... Anything that uses the speakers looses all volume. I have to reboot to get it back. Pretty annoying

I am facing the same problem. It just started to happen this week.

Clearly it's boring! if your device is rooted with magisk try viper4android it's magic, believe me !

Im having a similar problem and started to notice it few days ago, mainly because I am 85% of the time using the phone on vibration only.
I don't know exactly what OP means with "goes away", if this means that the volume is low (ringing or playing music) but the controls are still to the top, then yes I'm facing it too, but, what is really strange is that for me, just the top speaker have sound, while the bottom speaker is really low.
I managed to figure out that if I cover the top speaker with my finger without "pressure" or trying to squash it, the bottom speaker start "working" again. Im lost with this situation.

Sounds like a messed up mixer math or possibly audio mod that is messing it up

Could be a botched firmware. Be my guess. Iv flashed many roms and official firmware and never had this issue. Have you tried flash tool or the new flasher?

No, I never flash this phone before, just the automatic updates. All is stock.

Ahhh then one of the updates got messed. Sony must of messed something up. Flashed an older, firmware, different region firmware or hope for a patch from aony

No one else with this problem?

this just happened to me but after listening to spotify any way to fix this?
