How to improve Skype call quality - HTC One S

I am now on HTC one s over 4 g or WiFi. Just did ota to version 1.84
I have slight improvement with Skype but still fuzzy.
I had before cheap Samsung exhibition and Skype quality was amazing.
Any suggestion to improve voice quality?
I am thinking about selling the phone if I can not solve this issue or switch to unlimited voice plan (40 dollars more than what I am paying now).

Should I get a new SGS2 or refund?

Ok. Quick question. Should I get a replacement for my defective SGS2 or get a refund and switch from AT&T to T-Mobile and get the HTC Sensation. I am coming from the IPhone 3GS with a Grandfathered Unlimited Data Plan.
hmm they may force u to get another data plan.. and theres also the new SAMSUNG Hercules coming out...
get a refund
I'd be signing a new contract with T-Mobile so I know that I'd have to get a new Data Plan. How is T-Mobile? Also, how does the Sensation compare to the Samsung Galaxy S2?
Don't do anything till ICS comes out unless you really can't wait

Would wait , I'm probably going to sell the sensation and buy a cheap phone and wait till New nexus rolls out or iPhone 5 if it's compatible with tmobile

Sgs2 rocks dude better than sensation
Have gone through too many phones, buying , selling ,trading to newest phone. Been through almost all tmobile phones. Guess never satisfied with them, nexus one was probably kept the longest . IPhone is solid, used a 3gs for over a year and it was excellent. Just waiting for it to have tmobile bands to use on local carrier

Refund. Stay away from any recent NVIDIA hardware. I'm pretty sure the sgs2 uses it. Might be wrong tho. Besides that the sensation will decimate all once cm7 is released.

Consumer rights is one area where the UK/EU have done well forcing down the cost of using mobiles, protecting consumers from faulty goods, and specifying what mobile technologies can be used so no "only 3G with certain networks" issues.
Our ROMs also don't seem to get borked by the carriers either.

Pre paid phone

So my parents decided they don't want to pay the tmobile bill.... So my phone is shut off :'(
I was wondering what's the best alternative plan I'm looking for something real cheap like 20$ a month I'm thinking a pre paid plan or something
My phones unlocked so I can use any sim. Tmobile has horrible service where I live. I'm planning on just using my sensation I don't need 4g, Data would be nice though.
So what do you guys think would be the best option for me?

Call quality complaints

I have been getting complaints on call quality from my wife which is who I talk the most.
Also this is a replacement Sensation and my wife complained even after replacing.
Have you guys got any complaints from people you speak to?

I also have HTC sensation 4G. People complain that can't hear me well. I have been searching a solution, but out of luck. I have tried many different roms, but the same issue. I'm using now stock Rom ICS TMOUS.

I have the same problem. people have problems to hear me.
It is not always, but often enough to make me uncomfortable with the phone.
Works much better using a BT connection.
HTC has forgotten that this a phone...

Unlock code needed for Straight Talk?

If I wanna use a Straight Talk sim do I have to unlock the phone first or will it just work?

Pretty sure ST just puts you on ATT, so you should be ok. If not you can get one online for around $5. Let everyone know how it works out please.

You can only purchase sim cards online just be sure to get the micro sim for AT&T. Your phone doesn't need to be unlocked either if its an AT&T phone. I'm running my One X on straight talk without problem.

Damn. I didn't wanna wait for it to be shipped. I was hoping to pick one up at a store. I wonder if Radio Shack or any other place that sells cellphones would have them.

On ST with at&t One X. No problem. You have to order the sim online no Radio Shack or any other locations.

I don't get it. Why don't more people use straight talk instead of carriers like att? $45 a month is A LOT cheaper than an att bill. Is there some sort of catch with straight talk. Like say for example someone gets an unlocked gsm Galaxy Nexus. It seems like a no-brainer to get straight talk, but yet some go with att. With straight talk being unlimited data, voice, and text for $45 a month with no contract, you would think more people would use it.

Not a lot of people know about it. I recently discovered it 4 months ago because people kept on saying to get it in forums but yeah its way cheaper and WAY BETTER service than Sprint. I used to pay 100+ for crappy reception and 3g that would kill my battery.

It does. It can also use verizon towers depending on your service area. They basically just sub-let the towers.
It's tracfone's semi-new service.
Just got my sim and activated it. Everything went great. Voice and data are working perfectly. Glad to be off of att.
