[Q] Noise Reduction/Cancellation - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems that the tone of my voice is partially seen as background noise by most phones
To the people I'm talking to, my voice is not very clear. I had a Galaxy S3 and there was an option to disable "noise reduction" and that pretty much took care of the problem.
Does anyone know of anyway to turn this feature off on the N5?
Thanks!

Hi,
I've the same problem with my Nexus 5 ! So, i look for the same option : disable noise cancelation (Instead of using a headset !) Someone has an idea ? Do you know if the safe mode disable noise cancelation ?
Thanks,

Same issue... No good solution that I know of. Bump for visibility

Bump. Sort of the same issue here. During a call if I hold the mic next to my mouth it works fine, but if I move it like 5 cm from it it looks to the caller like I'm 10 meters from the phone. Also, when I play back a recorded video I hear a static under the normal sound (really anoying), I think those issues are related right? Btw, on a Skypecall or soundrecorder app it works flawlessly like it should, really weird!
So anyone found a trick to disable noise cancellation yet? Or something else?

I'm also experiencing these issues, and looking forward to a solution.
As far as I know, currently it is not possible to disable the noise cancellation sw.

As a temporary fix you can try to cover up the second mic located at the top of your phone.

I downloaded an app from the Play Store called BuildProp Editor. Just open the app and find it in the list, click on it, change the setting to false and you're done.

Use adb to pull edit and push build.prop file :good:

To edit/overwrite build.prop, /system needs to be mounted read-write, which in turn means root is required.

Just did a quick test for about 5 mins on a normal call and NOT with speakerphone on the Nexus 6P. It turns out covering the mic below the "visor" on the back with my finger gets rid of the problem completely!
I tried speaking from about 8cm away towards the phone and the receiver was able to hear me clearly with the back mic covered. Even speaking at different angles the other person was able to hear me, however the second I removed my finger from the back mic, the person said the voice became muffled.
---------- Post added at 01:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------
Tried using the build prop editor on my Nexus 6P changing the value to false and rebooted the phone. The value has reverted to True since my phones not rooted, BUT I don't need to hold my finger over the back mic anymore as the receiver can hear me clearly now! Maybe that attempt somehow reset the the noise cancelling mic or did something since its fixed the muffle effect ? will update in a few days time.

It could be a bad phone. The first one I got did the same thing on every single call. Everyone I spoke to heard an echo. I had AT&T replace it and the new one works perfect.

That is not an option on ICS, its in the in call menu now. I was referring to GB builds.
there was another user with a similar issue, noise suppression was a problem on pics, and he had to disable it each call. I may actually have a damaged skyrocket, I recommend warranty action

Do you have a case on the phone? If so, take it off and see how it works. On GB, people that had the "echo" problem usually could handle it by disabling "noise suppression", but ICS needs it to be disables on a call by call basis. It is one of the things (along with the "contacts" tab) that I hope the devs can add back into the ICS builds.
I didn't have the "echo" problem with GB, but it is there with ICS when I have a case on the phone. I get around it by using bluetooth most of the time.

Weird issues
Hey guys, I'm new here and im having some weird things going on, I had that echoing problem so I used odin to go back to stock, now when I'm in a call the mic seems to cut in and out, any ideas?
Mine is being sent back for warranty work.
The echo won't go away no matter what I try.
Sammy didn't even flinch. Just issued a repair ticket. Sucks that I will be without it while they fix/replace it.

Same thing here bro, for most people going into settings-call-additional settings then turning off noise suppresion works. To test it do that then call your home or some voice mail and as your speaking run your finger back and forth over the tiny hole by the headphone input (that is the noise canceling mic)
If you can do that and you dont go in and out anymore then you should be good to go. I myself get the same problem and have to send in for repair.
HA HA! I got this problem solved!
I bought a outterbox case for my I9100,
and same time I cought this problem!
I thought that there is a problem with the demultiplexation, changed a lot of modems and kernels...
What a funny pill was to take off the CASE!
The case is very tight and problaly because of that it transports vibration(sound) from speaker to mic! Same moment as I took it of the problem was solved!!!

I must say that I'm a little surprised that the noise suppression is done in the phone apk, wasn't expecting that at all. I will definitely test this to see if my theory was correct. And if it really fixes the problem, you've definitely earned yourself a beer.

I think it's my bad, noise suppression is referred to our mic, not incoming call. So this mod can help to fix outgoing call problems, not incoming ones.
The good news is that i have an idea, i may know where are parameters to change incoming call settings too
@luxandroid, @rosswhite, @CazeW: can you tell me what rom/kernel (new or old rom) is/was working better for you (regarding in call quality)?

The quality is great, better than with 4.1.1, if the signal is good and thats almost everytime the case if not connectet to a data network.

That's from a different thread. Don't know if that causes the problem but I am a 100% sure that there was no data when calling on 4.1.1...maybe it logged into GSM network as stunner2002 said?!
EDIT: when googling found something about dual mode transfer setting (ro.ril.enable.dtm) in build.prop. Was that disabled in 4.1.1? Does that have anything to do with it?

This ROM and this kernel is what I used before MaximusHD and had no problems with call quality.

May be it's just me but the fading only happens to me when I'm on the phone to a landline (and not all the time). Mobile phones seem to be ok.
Outgoing is definitely no issue so I'm not sure how noise supression has anything to do with it
For me the quality only gets bad when the other side speaks quiet. If the person speaks loud, quality is okay. When the opposite is speaking quiet, it seems some parts are cut off...

I don't know why i haven't experienced any in-call volume issues. May it be incoming or outgoing. In fact, in-call volume is more louder now on maximusHD than when i was on viper before. But in case in the future, if i experience those issues (hopefully not. ), i might try flashing this mod. Thank you anyway.
The problem happens with headphones too?
This is for me to understand if issue is earpiece related only
I'm still unable to reproduce the problem
I'll post soon a mod to improve earphone volume, it may help a little bit
Japp, headphones to. It wouldnt fix it if the volume is raised its a Software issue. I notice sometimes the data connection is disabled by default when i call someone. If its the case Sound quality is outstanding. But its not always the case it disables automatically

I've had data completely disabled and still get problem so I doubt it's caused by that. And I agree that raising the volume will most likely do nothing to fix it.
I could also mention that I've tried both a different kernel (ElementalX) and a different radio and still had the problem.
I really think i've found the bastard now it's kernel related
please test this kernel, it should fix incoming call quality issue:

Nexus 5 - vibration intensity ?

Hi all, never owned a nexus phone previously but just ordered from play N5 - coming from S4.
Just got a quick question... Is the vibration intensity adjustable on the N5 or even LG G2 like it is on my S4?

Download a custom kernel that support it and install trickster on Google play to control it.
And there's a app call battery widget reborn that will show your a battery percent on the top left. This phone hasn't even been release a week yet.
Lol but no touch wiz did not spoiled you the nexus 5 support will suck you in if you like customizing your android.

the intensity is adjustable...at least for the haptic feedback when typing
I have a mushy annoying vibration when typing...especially when typing fast.
I did RMA my Phone and the new phone is allready on the way to me (still have the old one)
After i did RMA i found out that the haptic feedback is adjustable....i put it on 1ms for typing....now it is less annoying and feels kinda normal....but not as crisp as it should imho.
I will receive the new one tomorrow and will compare them......who knows how the new phone will be (dust, dead pixels).....if there is anything like that i´ll keep the old one....if i am allowed to...i heard google forces you to keep the new device....anybody knows that for sure?

Yes it is thanks to custom kernels like Franco or Faux.
vibration config on the playstore will sort you out!
It´s adjustable without custom kernel or any app...
just go to settings -->Language & Input
there you will find Google Keyboard and at the right of it there is a symbol (haven´t seen it for the first few days)
Push it and you will find an extra poined called "advanced settings"
There you can change the vibration feedback for typing

I don't think so, I did it before and I couldn't find anything, just root it. it's really easy.
by the way that APP works great.
Hi guys, is there any way I can increase vibration strength permanently by editing a file instead of using a root app? I tried doing what Vibration Config does by going into /sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/amp and changing the value from 60 to 95, which works, but on a reboot it keeps changing back. Any idea how to keep it permanent? Thanks

It changes back because the kernel sets everything back to default, which is why kernel apps have a "set on boot" option. It also requires root access to be able to modify such values.
You can:
- compile a kernel yourself and change the default
- use a kernel app to set on boot
- use tasker to change the value on boot
- change it manually every time
An init.d file can do the job also.

Meh, I don't like the sounds either. I suppose it's because I don't like the mimic sound of a physical hardware shutter. HDR is at least a beep.

As far as I know the sound in the stock ROM is the same as the HDR+ beep, I think the shutter mimicking sound is an AOSP thing lol. I don't like the AOSP sounds
I looked into this for a while and found that there's no easy way. I'd say the best option is a tasker profile to turn your phone to silent when you launch the Camera app and reset it when you close the camera app.

That won't work, the mods don't just trawl through threads searching for messages to them lol. To have a thread closed you need to report it. To have a thread stickied you need to contact a mod via PM and request it (it may or may not be stickied though, it's at their discretion).

Thank you for the reply. Making a note in a thread is a curtsey gesture IMO, so post's stay clean or on topic. Usually, when I make a note on a post,one of the mod's picks up on it within a few days. Also I already sent a request for a sticky. If their is anything else I missed please feel free to contact me via PM. Hope you're summer is going great.

Thank you, making this thread helped me find a solution. Why do you want to close it? Mic got fixed with Mahdi ROM too, it wasn't low, just 11s didn't allow it to work at all for some strange reason.

BTW your "fix" almost screwed me. Good thing I backed up first....

Hi,
Thanks for this thread as it lead me to a solution for the 'ok google' problem by replacing the mixer_paths.xml file.
However, i had another speakerphone mic issue that may or may not relate to the 'ok google' problem.
Everytime i made a video call, my friends is complaining he cant hear any voice from my side at all. So i get to test it with my other phone and found that it was the OnePlus One speakerphone / mic issue. Everytime a video call started (Google Hangout, LINE, etc), the speakerphone is always on by default as we get to speak and watching the phone at the same time.
However, at the call recipient's side, there is only a buzz sound and cant hear anything from the call. When i mute the OnePlus One mic, the buzz sound is gone. Unmute the mic and the buzz sound continue. (So the buzz sound is indeed an input received by the OnePlus One mic)
Next, i switched the speakerphone off to earpiece mode and the buzz sound is gone. (So the buzz sound was caused by speaker output?) And then the mic was actually working now (with the speakerphone off), the call recipient's side can hear the call conversation clearly.
It seem that the mic activated some noise cancellation processing or similar when it detected noise from the OnePlus One's speaker itself? Anyone have the same issue? I'm pretty sure its not the App issue as i tried a few different app and all are having this issue.

I have the same issue too, but luckily not as severe. There is definitely a lot of echo/buzzing sound on the other end of the call but if i'm very close to the One and i'm talking loudly they can hear me. Not very ideal, but it's working to some extent.
Search for BACON-549 on the JIRA, looks like the same issue.
