Sound quality in ear speaker

---

Hello,

I'm running a X10i since 2 days. I must say that I'm quite happy with it but I have difficulties with the sound of the ear speaker : as the volume is quite low, I have to increase the volume and when I increase the volume higher than 3/4 to full I hear a lot of cracking and popping.

Do you have the same problem ?

On my phone to sound is quite good. I have to volume at max, and dont have any bad sounds, or unwanted noices.

is this while using the bluetooth headset?

Ive not tested it with the bluetooth set yet...
I seldom use that...

So, I think the sound in the phone itself is great.

How's the ringer volume, because I've heard random reports of it being pretty low.

Unfortunately, it is kind of low....

And i noticed when something blocks the speaker, like having it in the pocket, it becomes even lower...

And if in a somewhat noicy area.. Forget about hearing it..

this is currently one of my main gripes with the X10. The earpiece volume on my unit (firmware 1.6) is extremely low. At highest volume I get cracking and popping. If there is even a little background noise it becomes almost impossible to hear through the earpiece. It's getting to the point where the phone is almost unusable in many situations. Also the speaker volume is quite low as well. Miss many calls and notifications even at full volume.

I have just used the BT headset thus far. and the sound quality is good up until I attach them to the speakers.. Then they make a ****t up sound when I change song, or when it is no sound on at all. This does not happen when I connect them directly to the phone.

I’m having problems with the in-call volume on my X10I.
I called orange uk and was told that there have been many similar complaints with this handset on their network.
I was told them that it may be the deal breaker for me and told them i wished to return the handset.
The rep said that the reason the call volume was low was because i was using my old sim and not the one that was shipped with the upgrade.
Apparently there a certain profiles assigned to each sim for each respective handset???
The rep was confident that this would resolve my in call volume issues.
Anyone else aware of this?

Personally I have no problem with the soundquality. My problem is just low volume in the earpiece. Hopefully this can be turned up in updates or custom ROMs.
