Mic is very weak and resolution is weaker

I purchased my HTC Incredible 2 last May. The first 2 months with the phone was great, then out of no where, the mic just became very weak. I went to my local verizon store and the first thing the person did was hard reset the phone, of course that did not correct the problem. Well after two more visits to see about getting this corrected, I asked the question about replacement. The answer I got was to have the phone replaced with a refurbished phone and a charge of $90.00. I then asked if I could just change the phone altogether to an iPhone 4 for the $99.00 and the answer was they could not do it because it is not time for me to upgrade. So pretty much I am being told to either pay a total of $300.00 for a used phone or $650.00 for an iPhone. How is that good customer service? I want a working phone for the money that I spend every month, but it looks like this is not the case. So I have another option and that is to change companies all together.
Has anyone else had this type of problem with verizon and if so,did it get resolved. And for the Verizon employees that read this, please explain why you don't do everything you can to keep your customers happy. All we ask is to have working phones and working service, don't try to rob us because a something bad comes off the assembly line.

I was completely amazed you thought that ...
" The answer I got was to have the phone replaced with a refurbished phone and a charge of $90.00. I then asked if I could just change the phone altogether to an iPhone 4 for the $99.00"
was an actual option....
We get really inexpensive (subsidized) phones to start with... Most of us do not buy our phone at retail cost, we purchase them at a substantial discount when we renew our contracts... So when you expected NEW replacement. or wanting a new iPhone as a replacement boggles my mind.... I wasn't wise cracking at all....

I have version 4.1.2 and recorded a lead guitar track (live classical guitar) using the acoustic guitar echoes (flange enabled). Now, when I burn a CD, the guitar track is very weak. Any clues?

I have version 4.1.2 and have been doing great rercording for several years. I use only real instruments. This week I added "acoustic guitar echoes" to my classical guitar, and that enabled the "flanger" setting which is what I wanted. Mysteriously, every time I burn a test CD, that lead guitar track is very weak, even though the recording level is quite high. Nothing I have done has helped the mix. Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to circumvent it? I've tried burning straight from GB to a CD and also via Itunes; it doesn't make any difference. Thanks.

P.S. I usually record my classical guitar on the "vocal" and "live performance" settings, using my Blue YETI mic, set on stereo. I get great recordings which always transfer perfectly to my CDs. I'm puzzled why adding the acoustic guitar echoes would be failing in the burn process. Hope this clarifies.

Resolving Replication Conflicts And Errors Very Weak In 5.0.0.6

The current 5.0.0.6 release of 9ilite is very weak in the area of resolving replication conflicts. It seems like you need to create your own conflict handling routine. First, you need to read the C$EQ table in the mobile admin account to check if any errors have been logged. Then you need to read the CEQ$tablename table(s) from the application schema based upon the data contained in the C$EQ table. At this point you can change the data in the CEQ$tablename table and then call the consolidator api from your application to either remove or process the transaction that caused the conflict or error.
I've worked with Oracle Support on this and they don't even have any information on this. It is left up to the user to figure it out.
Perhaps this will be addressed in the 5.0.1 release.
I was wondering how some other developers where handling this issue.
Tom

You are correct, the method for bailing out of unresolved conflicts or errors is very lame. It would be 100x better if there were some sort of log file/log table entry giving a clue as to why the conflict is being dumped into the ceq$x table.
As far as workarounds, we're taking the approach of testing our app to the point that we hope no inserts into ceq$ ever happen. Probably a pipe dream, but hopefully later releases will address this.

HT4623 After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

Based on what?
"When Apple rolled out iOS 6.1, its first major update to iOS 6, yesterday, it introduced a series of bug fixes, software tweaks for iTunes and Siri and also added LTE support - but none of that was any use to the disconnected and discontented sufferers of a particular iPhone software flaw: greyed-out Wi-Fi."

The phone is an iphone 4

Take the device to Apple or an Apple authorized service center and let them check it out.

Have brand new iphone 4s. Wifi signal is very weak even when very close to router. I have also an iPod Touch and when both are side by side, the iPod wifi signal is excellent and the iPhone wifi signal is very poor??!!! Hardware issue? or software issue? I was hoping it is just a software issue, but...
Saw may web sites discussing this same issue; many discussions point to hardware problems but there is no official word from Apple about it, which is disapointing !?? Few discussions point to software problem with solutions based on try and error, and they don't seem to work.

did not help at all; the problem continues the same

ip5s's why I do not live screen and camera are very weak faint? please check for me seri17m800xffgc

Sorry, not quite accepted, I see that I missed something out...
This rapid flashing has only occured since I had BT Sport included in my package a few days back. Before then the light had been stable green with the occasional rapid flashing whilst I have been connected to the internet. That obviously does indicate data transfer.
However, when I was not connected to the internet, the light glowed a stable green all the time. Now it flashes rapidly even when I'm not connected - I'll add there that my BT Vision box remains on all the time.
Heat - The unit IS WARMER than it was - That may sound nit-picking but with my OCD's I "Touch-check" every item of electrical equipment every time I leave my house and, when I go to bed at night so I am very well used to "How warm something should be" so that in my mind, I "Feel Safe". At this time I don't "Feel Safe" with the increased temperature so have to switch it off overnight, or when I leave my house.
** The unit may of course be warmer due to extra data-transfer but then, why do I suddenly have extra, and constant data transfer when my computers are switched off and I'm not using the internet?
A thought about that I think could be that someone else is constantly accessing my connection though I've no idea how that could be so or if that ever could happen.

Very weak Right Channel output

Looks like this is a growing hardware defect on the iPod Classics. This leaves me wondering how long Apple will ignore this before resolving the problem or do their sales level leave them unmotivated to even discuss it.
I have the 160GB model, about 15 months old. The right channel has gone VERY weak.
I am using the standard factory headset which works fine in any other device so the headset is ruled out.
The headset jack in the iPod is clean and makes good contract with the headset and persists when connected via the base connector (see below), so the headset jack is ruled out.
I can connect the iPod to a portable docking port that connects to the iPod via the connector at the base of the headset. The right channel is also weak when playing music out the portable dock speakers. So, this rules out all connectors.
Next, I tried changing the Equalizer settings across all personalities (Rock, Jazz, etc) with no change in the problem.
Next, I tried doing a master reset (Press and hold the Play/Pause and Menu buttons simultaneously until the Apple/iPod logo appears). No joy. Problem
Finally, the Factory Reset was tried using iTunes (which only seems to erase the hard disk and reload all my music).
None of this has worked. Either there was a bad firmware update from Apple, which they will never admit to by policy obviously, or there is a hardware defect in the latest design of the iPod Classic. There are far too many people posting this problem on the net for this to be an isolated case.
Has anyone found a resolution to this problem (WITHOUT armchair guessing)?
Thanks.

- If it works with other headphones the try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. Also try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack
- Next Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem.
- Reset. Nothing was lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If still problem that points to a problem with the headophone jack.

I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand. But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status. What do I do?

I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand. But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status. I also have very weak wifi reception. What do I do?
I already tried the following:
a. Turned the phone off and then on.
b. Checked all wifi connections – no problem given that all our laptops and desktops can connect seamlessly.
c. I tried restoring the phone to original factory settings via itunes
d. Tried resetting the phone.
e. Tried different microsims from all networks
f. However, all methods failed given that the network reception is very weak and often reflects – “no service”. And with regards to the wifi reception It has difficulty in reading even the signal right in front of the wifi router.
I went to two Apple resellers here in Bangkok and requested that they please look at my Iphone and have it serviced. I was frustrated when they said that given that I bought my phone in Canada, they are not able to support me and should instead try to contact the Apple store in Canada.
I went to apple.ca website and went to the expresslane support and I was said to register and callback. Tried calling the 1800 number but given that I was in Thailand I had difficulty getting a connection.

Very weak signal

Hello
I have just moved, and in last home the airport express sent a strong signal to my iBook and my G5.
Now that I have moved (and I added the connection to my speakers) the signal is very weak (but working) on my G5 but full signal on the iBook.
I checked Airport Admin and increased robustness also I don't think it's other items that may cause interference.
The Express is now on the same shelf as my TV, DVD, stereo, but I don't think that should matter should it?
Please help

It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference in the immediate area that is preventing you from getting a good clean signal.
I suggest you perform a simple site survey, using utilities like KisMAC, MacStumbler, iStumbler, or IPNetMonitorX to determine potential areas of interference...and then, try to either eliminate or significantly reduce them.

E90 Very weak WiFi signal

My E90 has a VERY weak WiFi signal, and in places I regularly use a 9500 and my laptop with no problem, my E90 simply will not work e.g. from first floor to ground floor. If I move closer to the Wireless router, then it is fine on both Email and Web.
So it seems purely that the strength on E90 is far weaker than 9500.
Has anyone else found this?
Is there any way to alter signal strength in the various WiFi settings?
Or is this yet another shortcoming of E90 over 9500?

Yes I already altered Tx power settings. Thanks for suggestion. Makes no difference.
It really seems this E90 just has a vastly lower power WiFi rating than my 9500.
It is very tedious to be unable to connect even within one's own home and frankly renders the phone totally useless, quite apart from all the other problems well documented on here.
I think I can see why so many are up for sale on Ebay.
Does anyone at Nokia read these discussion pages and does anyone care that their products seem to fall short in SO MANY aspects?!
That's right, it seems no one reads these discussion.
However, if u have ur problem solved, pls advise

Very weak WLAN signal on Satellite Pro L10

Hi,
I have a Sat Pro L10 that came without a mini pci wireless card so I bought and installed one and fitted internal antenna behind the screen. When I am in the same room as the router I have a brilliant connection but as soon as I leave the room I lose it all together. The router is fine as other people have no problem connecting to it. The card I bought is made by Agere but came labelled as Toshiba, I have updated the driver to the newest I could find which is june 2002.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated as I'm sick of dragging this wire around with me.

Hi
I think there is no much to do. I think the environment has a strong influence on the Wlan signal receiving. Its the same issue like yours.
My brother uses the Wlan at home and the signal is strong enough if he is in the same room but in other rooms the signal is very weak. But at my home he can receives the WLan signals without any problems. The signal is strong also if he is in different rooms
I think the room walls are the reason for the weak signal.
But you could check the Wlan card properties in the device manager. There you could change some settings in the Advanced tab. For example disable the power saving, etc
