TS1631 People say I sound like I'm in an echo chamber or empty room when I'm calling on my iPhone 4S

Help!  People say I sound like I'm in a tin can or empty room when using the iPhone 4S

Have you by any chance covered the little hole at the top of the phone or is there any dirt in it?

  • Headset voice: people say it sounds like I'm underwater, any solutions?

    I am currently using mainly the speakerphone because my voice on the headset is so muffled and not on the speakerphone.
    I have tried another headset and it only works if I press and hold it in (can't do when driving) I imagine it is because the jack is stereo and the headset is mono.
    Has anyone else experienced this or solved how to get the ROKR to work with other headsets?
    Thanks! Ben

    I'm on my 4th ROKR for this very reason. Sound is 'slightly' better when not using the headphone, but still unusuable. I filed a formal trouble report with MOTO. I believe their A/D convertor is faulty in its design. Seems phones are fine so long as there is NO background noise, otherwise the noise cancelling doesn't work well and people cannot understand you.

  • Why do my podcasts sound like they are in an echo chamber?

    All the podcasts I have downloaded have developed an echo effect. This includes podcasts that were downloaded prior to the development of this problem. Echo does not effect i Tunes downloads. Do I need to reset or what?

    I figured it out...
    Somehow, my "system preferences > sound > output" got changed back to "built in speakers" on my iMac instead of my audio interface which puts out sound through my active monitors, but I guess since the way Logic works, the output always goes back out through the interface when playing back from within Logic, so when I was playing back the MP3 on my desktop, it was coming through the built in speakers on my iMac.
    So if you are having this same issue, check and make sure your audio interface is selected as your output in "SYSTEM PREFERENCES>SOUND"
    PHHEWWW I FEEL BETTER!!!

  • The callers on the other end say it sounds like im whispering

    The callers on the other end say it sounds like im whispering is there any way to turn the voice intake up ??

    My Pre speaker has also stopped working, now for the second time.  The first time was within a week of getting the phone & Sprint replaced the phone, now it's happened again.  Sprint wants to replace the phone again, but I really don't want to go through the hassle of re-downloading apps & uploading contacts. 
    I've gone through the troubleshooting steps & have noticed that it's more than just the phone speaker. Pandora will only play over my stereo headphones or bluetooth headset (speaker phone isn't available?).
    It seems like this should be a quick fix, so any ideas would be great!

    please help

    Has nothing to do with the SIM or master reset.  This has been done to my phone.  The SIM once and the factory reset many times over.  You all just sold us a bad piece of equipment and have us by the tail with our contracts so none of us can get a new phone without paying full price or re-upping our contract.  I just got off the phone last night with your high up tech people (you know, the hidden number we get once we tear into your support people enough), they went into my phone again and still didn't find anything wrong.  I about got fired from my job for not getting my calls and texts.  The BBB has now been contacted, and I feel your end should shore this up for all of us!

    I think what you are asking is ,can your iPad let you know when you have a call on your I phone. The answer is no it can't.

  • Earbuds Sound Like You're in a Tunnel?

    I have several employees who bought iphones and the earbuds are unusable especially for important phone calls. You can hear the other person alright but they say you sound like you're in a windy tunnel or on a motor cycle when you're in a silent room!
    Does anybody else have this issue?
    Is this enough for an earbud replacement or are they all bad?
    Normal calls are average, speakerphone calls are poor and earbud calls are horrible.

    Yes, I had this exact issue. Earbuds were UNUSABLE for calls - everyone says that you are in a "windy tunnel" like you said, and they can not hear anything.
    I took the phone in and was given new earbuds -- Problem fixed. Still not the best sounding conversation according to others I am talking too, but definitely usable, and people can actually hear me.
    Hope this helps.

  • How come when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside?

    I just got my iPhone so i can't imagine there is anything wrong, but I noticed that when I tap the back of my iPhone next to the camera, it sounds like there is a lose piece in inside. Also, when I put the iPhone down on a desk or table i hear the same sound. Wondering if this is normal?

    Hi JRM833,
         That would be enough to make me worry as well. I've not seen (or heard, in this case) that happen on any of my iPhones, or any others that I've been around (friends, family, etc.).
    I would say that no, that isn't normal. If you're near one, take it to an Apple store. Or, if you made your purchase at the wireless carrier you've chosen, take it back to them to see if they could help you out.
    Best of luck.

  • 3 way calling sound like underwater

    I have an office with a 2811 voice gateway and 2960 switch and 5 7942 IP Phones. When the manager is on a 3 way conference call which he originates from his IP phone the callers on the remote end say he sounds like he is under water. They have a full T1 with QoS. The T1 never gets over 60% utilization and there are no errors on the T1.

    The issue surfaces when anybody else in the office makes a call from their IP phones while the managers conference call is in place. Then the outside clients will notice that the manager sounds like he is talking under water.
    Well now this is a QoS problem. Look at your policy-map; packets are likely being dropped from the LLQ. Remember that the LLQ is policed at the rate specified. It appears you only have enough bandwidth to support three calls; or, the conference call (which is sourced from a different IP than the phone) is not getting placed into the LLQ class.
    Be careful to know which codec the calls are at when doing your math. For example, if you have four G.711/722 with 20msec sampling would require at least 352kbps at layer two (assuming MLPPP and RTCP). You can use http://www.bandcalc.com/ to take some of the guess work out of this.
    You may want to include the sccp local Loopback0 command to ensure you know which interface confernce calls will be sourced from.

  • I do a radio show, when I pre-record i get a very low end hiss, almost sounds like gain is too high, but its not. If Im live to the station its fine. It only happens when I record. Is there a way to set audition NOT to record that low end sound?

    I use an Allen & Heath broadcast board. When I record to my computer for later broadcast there is a low end hiss/hum barely noticeable when im speaking BUT very prominent when there is a quiet moment.
    Sounds like gain may be tooo high, BUT its not.  When I do a LIVE broadcast using same equipment all is fine!
    Thoughts

    Well, several thoughts here...
    First, what are you using to get from the A&H mixer into your computer and is it in the chain when you broadcast live?  I ask because a lot of built in sound cards are pretty noisy and that could be the source of the problem, fixable with even a very cheap external USB interface
    Second, if the hiss actually starts at the mic/mixer, I know the A&H XB series has a high pass filter on every mic channel.  Have you engaged that?
    That said, it's pretty rare for hiss to be such a low frequency that the high pass filter will kill it.  You may get on better with the Noise Reduction feature in Audition, applied after the recording.
    Anyhow, to repeat how I started, what's your signal chain when recording and how does it differ from when you go live?
