Hey everybody so I have had the Samsung Galaxy fold 2 for 6 months and ever since I got it every single premium pair of earbuds that I have purchased, have made the other person on the other end of the phone tell me I sound very bad! They say it sounds like I am in a tunnel! I have tried going into the developer settings and looking at the Bluetooth settings and there didn't seem to be anything I could change it to, does anyone have an idea what is going on or how I might troubleshoot this? Thank you so much

Hi I have an XDA 2s which is fairly new but wasnt working so I have claimed for a new one, howver I got to thinking wether it was mendable and how serious the fault was. When I use the ophone wether I have made the call or someone calls me they cannot hear me very well, it sounds tinny and distant yet I can hear the person perfectly. Has anyone got any ideas? does anyone think I'll get any money for it on Ebay if I explain the fault?
Cheers
I have a samsung gt i7500 but I'm sure the problem is android related.
After playing around with some roms and one time when I called someone he did not hear me and I didn't hear him, it worked only with the microphone and the headphones it came with. From there on reinstalled all possible roms versions and default versions and I always have the same problem.
Also I noticed that if I try to play music on the speakers I can't hear it.
Today I installed a new rom and saw the music DID work before making a call. But after the call with no voice/sound the speakers music didnt work any more either.
At one samsung shop a guy told me that he can't fix it but the internal drivers/software components are of different versions.
I think it might be the phone.tar file with an amss file inside that is ****ed up.
Any ideas? hoping someone can help

Hey Guys, I have read all the post here, and have done numerous searches here as well as google, and cant find a single topic on the problem I'm having, and I know other people have to be having the same problem, or maybe they do, and don't realize it, lol.. anyway when I am on the phone talking to someone and someone else calls, the person I am talking to hears my beep, some ask who's trying to call you? while others say hold on they are getting a call, but it is my beep they are hearing, so I have tried almost every app in the market, and patiently waited for the 2.3.4 update, and no fix, I called tmobile and they said it was a known issue and LG is working on a patch, but didn't know when one would be available, I called LG they said it was a known problem but had no plans of fixing it.... Does anyone here know how to fix this ? or have a work around ?
besides disabling call forwarding all together ????? This is like an invasion of privacy
and really irritating, Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys !!
are u using Bluetooth? plantronic?
Na, stock g2x, stock rom 2.3.4 android, no accessories, if you have one try an experiment with someone, it does the same on mine, my fathers, and my girls.....
Weirdest thing.... thanks for any help
because my friend using 3gs and Bluetooth happened just like u said.
Hi all,
Apologies if this has been posted but I could not find any using the search although I came close.
I bought a 2nd hand Telstra HOXL using an Optus sim on fleabay and it is basically brand new. I've had it for almost a week and everything has been working fine except that I dont actually use it for calls that often. So last night I get a call and the person on the other end couldn't hear me so I figured they were in a bad reception area. Similar thing happened today and it felt strange so I called myself and all i could hear was a loud buzzing sound every time I spoke into the mic. When i turn on speaker phone, it actually works properly. Obviously it's a bit pointless if I can make a call without being on speakerphone. The strange thing is, I definitely had a successful call when i first got the phone but it required a few attempts before we could hear each other and I was told by the caller that all they could hear was the buzzing noise. Why it would suddenly work after a few attempts and then never again is beyond me.
Things I've tried:
- Performing the Audio Test. It failed because I could not record anything. I confirmed this by trying the voice recorder and it didn't work - just buzzing.
- I tried factory reset without success
- Finally I jumped onto the online support and they told me there is only 1 mic so it sounds like a software problem.
Has anyone experienced the same thing? I can't exactly take it for repairs cos the Ebayer has gone MIA even though they promised to provide proof of purchase. Hopefully they aren't dodgy cos they even refunded the postage difference. So now i'm stuck with a potential lemon and a few hundred bucks poorer.
Thanks.
I probably can't help you, but I suggest making more tests and post here, hopefully somebody had a similar problem and can help:
- try over headphones
- try over Bluetooth headsetor in car handsfree
- try a call over Skype or yahoo messenger (on wifi) to make sure isn't the network
Post results here. You'll probably end up with a custom rom, but not sure.

Thanks. It's definitely not the network because I put my sim back into my old trusty Desire and it works fine. I'll give the headphones / bluetooth a crack later and I have a feeling they will work.
UPDATE - Tried it with headphones on and it works. I read on another forum that some people believed it had something to do with removing the headphones from the jack which caused the propblem. I happen to use my headphones a fair bit and I'm thinking maybe it's "confused" itself somehow. Some people have tried clearing the cache but I'm not sure how to do that on the XL.

Hi All,
Coming from a solid iPhone background, this is the first time I have fully jumped on the Android ship.
So far, I have really enjoyed the large screen, the custom keyboard and how fast the device is.
However, I use my mobile for work related conference calls with a headset and since getting this phone people are ALWAYS telling me my voice has gone quiet:crying:
I have searched the internet and can see others have reported similar issues and even Google have acknowledged it:
**cant post links!**
My question is if this is related to CTIA vs OMTP headsets? ie maybe I need a CTIA headset and that will sort the mic issue?
Can anyone confirm which headset they have that works perfectly (ie people can hear them)?
thanks in advance
i have this issue too.
google, i know you see this(u the biggest xda digging) : you have lot of problems :'(

I often use the white earpods that Apple started giving with the iPhone 5 launch. I use it for long conference calls, have no issues with voice/sound through the headset whatsoever.
Maybe troubleshoot? Clearly if 2 people are having a problem, it's not your headsets, but perhaps try a new pair or see if it's different between cell phones and landlines?
I using earpods too. Mabye you Satisfied, so you dont have any issue. I looked out the internet and found more ppl having this issue.
