Headset Questions - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I hope i am in the right Part.
Since one week i have OPO and i am happy so far.
As you know there is no headset incl with the phone.
Now i bought a headset from House of Marley with pause,plus and minus buttons.
plus and minus doesnt work that i know as it is made for Apple stuff.
On the S4 i can answer an incoming call and end the call as well.
On my OPO i can only answer the call if i press the button to end the call i just mute the phone.
Now my question. What is controlling the Headset ? Is it the Rom itself or is it kernel related ?
Would be nice if somebody can give me some advice.
Thank you

The kernel is what controls the headset. I'm not really sure what else to answer as theres only one question.

Oops yes sorry.
Does it mean that it could be possible that a kernel other than the stock one can solve the end of call problem ?

Any updates if this is being fixed?

Could work. Just try out the custom kernels one by one and test.

Thanks in advance for any help or tips,

I was just getting ready to an identical post - I'm really surprised that this has not been a more common post thus far -- maybe I'm getting old and my hearing is suffering but given the other phones that I've had lately this is the worst one for earpiece volume in the last couple of years.
I asked super about this on twitter said its gonna be in ver8

Isn't this an identical thread ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1041712
As I stated there too, it could be a phone-related issue. Go to the store and tell them to give you another one. If that one is louder, then it was an issue with the previous phone. If it has the same issue, then ask for another one. This issue is present on many other phones, including Sony Ericsson's. Check Google for this.
Het everyone,
I tried lowering the volume in the middle of a call and then increasing it and it seems to fix the issue. Try it and let me know if it works for you.

Hey lambda30,
Thanks for the link, but that thread discusses headset volume not earpiece volume. DSP manager already supports boosting headset volume.

Oh, I didn't notice the difference between the threads, sorry, my bad. In that case, in my story, I had a problem with the earpiece, not the headset. So, I had a problem like yours, in this thread.
And no, lowering the volume in the middle of a call didn't change anything. The refund for the phone did, lol.

Can't hear the caller

Hi,
My Samsung Omnia i8350 was working great but suddenly today I can't hear the caller at all, although they can hear me. Tried everything from changing the SIM to calling different carriers but no luck.
I hope there's a fix for this?
Thanks!
Yes. The fix name is the "manufacturer's warranty".

Hmm, it's a pity... BTW, did you tried Bluetooth or regular headsets (headphones)? Or wait... Check first - may be you accidently paired with Bluetooth device/headphones?
I would definitely suggest trying both headphones and a headset.
Also, silly question, but did you chek the in-call volume? It's different from the volume used in the rest of the phone (it's the *only* different volume meter the OS has, somewhat to my annoyance). I know I've accidentally pressed and held the volume-down rocker while on a call a time or two.

[Q] very quiet voice only in calls

Hello,
I have a strange problem with my rooted Haier W910 Smartphone (Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8260A CPU with ICS 4.0.4).
In all calls, the microphone is very low and everyone hear me very quiet.
But in all other apps, like voice recorder or google speech recognition, the mic works fine and perfect.
I hold the phone properly and also I don't touch the mic with my fingers in the call.
I can't edit something in the phone options and I don't know / can't find the right secret code for service or engineering mode
Who can help me, please?
Best regards and sorry for my terrible english
Andy

I also have this problem only when i calling out. Changing ROMs dosen't solve this strange problem. The engineer code is *#*#303#*#*
Me too
Anyone found a solution to this? I have exactly the same problem. Just done a static test when I call out using the Haier the voice levels are very quiet. But accepting a call in the voice levels are just fine.
Has to be software related??

It's seem software related but all the ROMs I checked (various 4.0.4 a d 4.1.2] don't solve the problem.
I just returned the phone to the seller.

It seems that the problem is very apparent when using handsfree, because the other party experiences huuge quality loss when the phone is switched to handsfree (switching to the loudspeaker and talking from say 50 cm away) I have however heared ppl tell me that my voice comes through worse then before anyway. Same for cellular and ip calls incl wifi

OnePLUS One audio low during calls

Hello to everyone,
I would like to know if there is a solution to the problem of audio low during calls?
if the answer is no, you know if CyanogenMod is planning to solve this particular or is it a hardware problem?

Horrible call quality

Hey all,
Everything was fine and dandy with calls being loud and clear, until about a few days ago.
One day the call quality from my side just randomly went from great to terrible.
I can hear the other side just fine, but from my side its really low-volume and barely hearable.
Things I've tried:
-Flashing different radios (25R,30O,33R,Find7, radio from the latest nightlies)
-Flashing different ROMs and kernels
-Switching network modes (LTE, 3g, 2g)
-Combinations of the above
If anyone has experience dealing with issues like this/knows anything to improve the call volume from my side, any help would be very much appreciated.

You are not alone, I've had similar issues. For me speaker phone still works perfect, its just my voice during a regular call that's terrible.

Yup, the speakerphone works great but its inconvenient.
Gutted to have such a basic function impaired.
Hopefully this issue will be fixed by the next OTA, which should be next week around Monday.
Same here. My call quality is really bad. When I am speaking on the phone I'm typically running around desperately trying to find a quieter place, with the phone held up to my left ear and a finger plugged right into my other ear, hunched over like Quasimodo in a desperate attempt to understand 50% of what the other person is saying.
I learned one thing from the OPO. You actually do get exactly what you pay for. Lesson learned. :good:
win
So, after updating to the latest version of vanir and re-flashing the 33R radio, my in-call volume magically got back to normal.
I wish everyone affected best of luck and patience :fingers-crossed:
OPO hype much more than the phone deserves. Not going to last long

@Kiahnlliya I agree with you 100%. Same lesson learned. In fact, if it was not for the invite system, I wouldn't have bought this phone. I just had to own the phone, most difficult to buy.

@Kiahnlliya @jrior001 @latenightchameleon My in call audio volume from the earpiece is really very low & muffled. I think I am audible on the other end, coz haven't got any complaints from people talking to me. I am on stock 33R unrooted. This is really annoying & really hope I can get rid of this issue with a firmware upgrade.

You should try the latest cm nightlies, they've pushed a bunch of improvements to audio and volumes.
It's a very simple fix if rooted. You need to edit a value in mixer_paths.xml. Some custom ROMs increase the value.

It'll be very helpful if you could please let us know what exactly has to be edited, with what values, in the mixer_paths.xml file.
Thanks in advance.
You can find all the details in this thread or just flash the zip.

hi, is there a way to increase incall volume to the earpiece without root? im not rooted and cant hear people im trying to talk to. if so please help
No you'll need root or custom recovery to flash the zip unfortunately. Otherwise you will need to wait for your ROM to be updated. CM have merged this in their commits so hopefully if your on stock CM11S you'll see this in the next update.
thanks alot mate for the fix.
Simple fix found
Hey i was having the same robotic voice on the reciever's side as well and i found a simple fix for it! just disable the "ok google" detection and delete your voice recording as well. It worked for me.. It might work for you as well.
