Intermittant mic drop-out with loudspeaker calls.

Intermittant mic drop-out with loudspeaker calls.

Hey all,

 

Have posted this already in another thread but to no avail so thought I would try again.  I'm having problems with the loudspeaker call function on my N97.  My microphone cuts out when there is noise in the background of the person I am trying to speak to.  If they are in a quiet room then it works fine.  This seems like a echo cancellation software issue or something but I have spoken to Nokia and they were no help.  I have also updated to Version 12 firmware but if anything it seems to have gotten worse.  Does anyone have any ideas on how or when this may be fixed?

 

Thanks in advance.

THIS IS A BUILT IN FEATURE OF THE N97. BASICALLY THE SPEAKER PHONE SYSTEM WORKS ON A DELAY SO YOU HAVE TO WAIT A SEC BEFORE TALKING AFTER YOUR CSLLER DOES. ITS KINDA LIKE A WALKY TALKY THAT WAY.... AND YES IT REALLY SUXS! I ALSO DOUBT IT WILL BE FIXED. YERT ANOTHER N97 ISSUE.

Re: Intermittant mic drop-out with loudspeaker calls.

Yes I have this problem with my second N97 (the first I returned because of reset issues) in that all the people I phone complain they cant hear when the speakerphone is on.

 

This is a huge problem for me as I am in my car for long periods and it is forcing me to break the law.

 

I got this phone in July and have spent a large portion of my life since then trying to get things to work like my N95 which was great.

 

Now I feel like I am on my own with the N97 as you dont get a 3rd exchange (even if the phone is faulty)

 

You can speak to some people in India that agree there is a problem (as they cant hear me) so they give me services center telephone numbers in Australia that dont answer. I just spent 3 hours waiting on hold to 3 service centers none of whom answered and the connection came up with an error and hung up.

 

I also have an issue with voice dialling in that if I dont have at least 3 words in the voice dial it doesnt work at all so prehapes the 2 are related and something to do with the speaker.

 

I am at my wits end with this phone and what really irks me is all these happy apple iphone users who cant wait to show me how well there phone works in the areas where the N97 doesnt.

 

I think the phone was released way to early and I object to Nokia using me as test bed for a phone that should not be on sale and does not work in the most critical area - as a phone.

When a mobile phone doesn't take calls, you know things are bad
