I can't hear you - what should I do? Why can I hear myself on the phone when talking on a mobile phone? Why is there an echo during a phone call?

Modern smartphones are multifunctional devices, they can be used as a webcam, game console, multimedia player, and even Personal Computer. However, the main purpose of any mobile phone is to provide high-quality voice communications in a cellular network. Therefore, the owner is extremely unpleasant when his device does not allow you to comfortably make calls.

Judging by the forums, one of the most common problems is the echo in the phone when talking. Its essence lies in the fact that you or your interlocutor begin to hear your own voice, which comes with some delay. As a result, such a cacophony is created that it is simply impossible to talk.

Consider the reasons why this problem occurs, and provide tips on how to fix them.

Why is there an echo when talking

First of all, it should be understood that echo is an integral companion of any conversations at a distance, since the transmission of analog or digital signal takes a certain time, and the sound has the property of reflecting and returning back. And the more distant the interlocutors are from each other, the more clearly this phenomenon will manifest itself.

Before the advent cellular communication echo was also constantly present in conversations on a regular home phone. However, the delays in signal transmission over the wires are so meager (on the order of a few milliseconds) that the speaker's voice practically merges with his own voice, which returned back, so there was no discomfort.

Everything changed with the advent of cellular communication, and especially modern good smartphones with Internet telephony. Now, due to the many stages of signal processing and conversion, delays in its transmission have become very noticeable. Most often this manifests itself if you call from a mobile phone to a landline. When changing from a local line, which is usually two-wire, to a four-wire trunk, the signal part is reflected.

To combat echo in mobile phones, operators install special echo-compensating devices on their terminals, the principle of which is based on the subtraction of the direct signal and the reflected one. However, such systems do not always work perfectly, require adaptation to each specific session and fine tuning. And sometimes they do not cope at all if the echo occurs due to a malfunction of the telephone set.

What to do?

So, you found an echo during a conversation, let's list the possible reasons for its occurrence.

What to do if you hear an echo in the phone during a conversation? And in general, why is this phenomenon observed? These questions are being raised more and more frequently. In fact, telephone echo can be due to various reasons. Sometimes it turns out to resolve the situation without any problems, in some cases it is not possible to do this. In general, if the subscriber has the described problem, he will have to go through several scenarios, the diagnosis of which is very difficult without outside help. So what to do if you hear an echo during a conversation? Why is this happening? How dangerous is the phenomenon?

The first step is to understand how realistic it is to solve the problem. Perhaps there is no way to eliminate the echo in the receiver that interferes with the conversation?

As practice shows, echo during a telephone conversation is a phenomenon that usually needs to be corrected. And without radical action. Accordingly, do not be afraid if this problem occurs. But what causes the echo in the tube? And what to do in this or that case?

The most obvious option is a manufacturing defect. Relevant for new phones. It is likely that the device was initially defective. As a result, an echo is heard during a conversation.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that the problem begins to bother the buyer immediately after the first call. That is, from the very beginning. You can act in several ways:

1. Send your phone in for repair. If the reason is not at all in marriage, but in some kind of breakdown, then it will definitely be eliminated. And it will be possible to pick up an already working device.
2. Exchange the gadget in the store and write a complaint about the purchase of a defective product. Relevant if the echo is detected immediately after purchase. Usually sellers quickly exchange defective phones for serviceable ones.

However, marriage is only one of the reasons. It has already been said that it is detected immediately after the start of using the phone. What are the most common situations in real life?

Why is there an echo in the phone during a conversation? Sometimes subscribers complain about this situation. Moreover, regardless of the services of which operator they use. Why is the interlocutor or yourself heard repeatedly?

It is likely that the volume of sounds is to blame. Or, as people say, phone settings. The other party's speaker or microphone is too loud. Because of this, the indicated problem occurs.

Why is there an echo when talking on the phone? If the device has been used for a long time, it is possible that a bug is installed on the mobile phone. It helps someone to listen in on phone conversations. This is where the echo comes from.

Fortunately, such a situation is a huge rarity. If there are suspicions of wiretapping, you can take the mobile phone to a service center, report suspicions and wait for the diagnostics and repairs to be completed. This technique is the fastest, most logical and simplest solution. After all, it is very difficult to get rid of the bug on your own.

factory feature

If an echo occurs while talking on the phone, you should not be scared. And immediately think that a low-quality product was bought, too. The thing is that each mobile phone has its own "stuffing". That is, all phones are arranged differently. The cause of the problem may be precisely the factory feature.

That is, initially the phone was assembled in such a way that when working with a mobile network, an echo will be heard. Actual mainly for older models of gadgets. The solution is only 2 options:

1. Deal with the echo. You have to listen carefully to the words. But sooner or later it will get boring.
2. Immediately buy new phone. It is advisable to continue to make a test call before making a purchase.

There are no other solutions for this situation. How to remove echo in the phone when talking? It all depends on the cause of the problem. What other methods of struggle should be paid attention to? For example, if all the previously listed layouts do not explain the resulting echo?

In such a situation, only the service center will help. Or buying a new phone. But we are not talking about the features of the device of the mobile phone. An echo in the phone during a conversation may occur if it is a speaker breakdown.

A fairly common problem faced by subscribers who do not monitor their mobile phones. If the phone has been dropped or dropped into water, it is likely that an echo problem will occur.

By the way, if you leave this phenomenon without attention, in the end the speaker will refuse to work in principle. That is why after some negative impact on the phone and the appearance specified problem you need to contact the service center. There the speaker will either be repaired or replaced. Luckily, you don't need to buy a new phone in most cases. But expect that the repaired speaker will last a long time, too, should not be.

Housing tightness

An echo in the phone during a conversation can occur when the tightness of the gadget case is violated. The situation does not occur too often, but it is very problematic to deal with it.

If the subscriber is thinking about how to get rid of the emerging echo, you can offer him the following steps:

1. Take the phone to a service center. They can spend there complete diagnostics and fix the problem. Although few people are engaged in correcting the tightness of the case.
2. Change body. This method does not always work. The body panels need to be replaced with more dense ones. You can buy these components in any store, depending on the model of the gadget.
3. Change phone. The most logical, though not the most pleasant solution. It is almost impossible to fix problems with the tightness of the device. That is why you often have to buy new mobile phones.

To combat echo that occurs when calling to a regular landline phone there are special echo suppressors. These devices identify human speech coming from one end of the connection and suppress all signals coming in the other direction.

As you can see, the problem is not solved without costs in all cases, but nevertheless it is solved. By the way, an echo can occur, due to the fault of listening devices, here it is necessary to read less books about spies.

Many users are faced with a problem when an Android phone or tablet starts acting up. It seems that nothing happened that could cause a malfunction, but it does not work as it should.

For example, the device has problems with the fact that during a conversation (call) any distortion or defects in the transmission / reproduction of sound appear. The reason for this may be:

The first group of reasons Since the speaker and microphone of your unit are in the same housing, acoustic echo may occur under certain conditions. The sound from the speaker can get into the microphone for two reasons: the first is the lack of “tightness” of the connection between the speaker and the hole for it in the case, due to which the sound from this speaker propagates through the case and enters the speaker. Such a phenomenon can be caused either by the mechanical looseness of the case during operation, or by its design; The second possible reason is the cover. After some time has passed since the start of operation, cases tend to “break in” somewhat, due to which a certain amount of free space is formed between the case and the phone body, which helps to shield sound from the speaker to the microphone.

In the second group of reasons, the following can be distinguished: the first is the transceiver of the base station of your operator, near which you are located, the second is the wired telephone provider with whose subscriber you are talking. This happens due to the reflection of part of the signal during the transition from the local line to the main line.

How to determine the cause of the echo effect in your mobile phone.

To effectively solve a problem, it is necessary to accurately determine the cause of its occurrence. Unfortunately, this is unlikely to be done with 100% accuracy, but the probability is still high.

So, if the echo is a constant phenomenon, or vice versa, it is impossible to trace any regularity in its appearance, then the reason is most likely your apparatus. To finally verify this, try reducing the speaker volume. In cases where after that the echo disappears, the cause of its occurrence was in the phone. Also try removing the cover. The echo has disappeared - the case is the reason.

If the echo occurs in any specific places, or when calling to some, or arose for a certain period of time, then your terminal should not be blamed. There is one of the second group of reasons. The BS is to blame if an echo occurs in some place, and not to blame if you are communicating with a landline phone when an echo appears. When you have an echo, try another operator's SIM card in the same place. The echo is gone - the cause of the OSS, no - no.

How to deal with it.

If the matter is in your device, the outputs are as follows: reduce the volume of the speaker, if the reason is in the case, if this does not help, there is only one way out - replacing the phone. The reason is in the cover - the solution to such a problem, as you might guess, is the refusal to use the cover, or, if this option is not acceptable, replacing it with a new, denser one.
If the operator is to blame for your unbearable torment, then you need to call the subscriber service and tell the place where you constantly feel shortcomings in the quality of communication. Your application will be accepted, but when the cause will be eliminated (and whether it will be eliminated) is unknown. There is only one way for an ordinary user to influence an operator - to call and call. Or, if everything is really bad, you can change the operator, after making sure that you will not have such problems with the new one.
To combat the echo that occurs when calling a regular landline phone, there are special echo suppressors. These devices identify human speech coming from one end of the connection and suppress all signals coming in the other direction.
As you can see, the problem is not solved without costs in all cases, but nevertheless it is solved. By the way, an echo can occur, due to the fault of listening devices, here it is necessary to read less books about spies.

The so-called "echo" that your interlocutor hears during a conversation is caused by:

a) "Tip" of the signal, it's all to blame - poor soldering of the microphone, its cable and contacts, sometimes - over a sensitive microphone. Or the speaker's rubber gasket has come loose. As a result, the sound of the speaker enters the phone and enters the noise canceling microphone instead of only passing through the speaker hole on the front of the handset. All of the above are factory defects.
b) Noise reduction (the fact is that starting from the official firmware 2.3.4, the noise reduction function is active by default, but there is no adjustment item)

Ways out of the situation:

a) MARRIAGE. Check soldering, cable and contacts. In case the rubber gasket is to blame. That is a very simple way out. The photo shows two components that affect each other: "A" - noise reduction microphone. Make sure the elastic that covers it sits properly in place. "B" - the speaker, holding on to its seat:

Move the speaker up and down a little until you can lift it up. Clean the speaker housing and its seat from all contaminants, as they prevent the speaker from sitting normally in the socket. Put the speaker back and press it firmly so that it sits well in the socket. The rubber seal surrounding the speaker needs to be firmly seated in the seat to isolate the phone's innards from sound. Now we need a piece of paper 0.5mm thick and 5x12mm in size. It must be placed on top of the speaker. A business card is very well suited for this purpose, because their thickness is what you need. The paper should cover the area indicated by the red rectangle "C":

Reassemble the phone by replacing the back cover and tightening all the screws. Now the piece of paper additionally presses the speaker onto the seat, preventing it from creating an echo in the phone.

Articles and publications

Unfortunately, mobile technology has come so far that wiretapping a mobile phone has become not too difficult. It can be carried out by everyone who is not too lazy and who, of course, has an interest in this. But there are several ways that prevent the invasion of the owner's privacy. In this article, we will define the main points that will allow you to determine whether the phone is being tapped or not.

1. Battery temperature.
Touch your phone when not in use. If the battery is warm or hot, then it is still being used. Do not forget the factor that heat is generated due to excessive operation. The battery will only be hot if the mobile phone has been used for some time.

2. Too fast phone discharge.
If you notice that you are charging your phone much more often than usual, this is a reason to be concerned. In this case, there is a high probability that someone else used it. In the case of wiretapping the phone, its battery runs down much faster. Such a phone records all conversations in the room, even if at first glance it is idle.
But if the phone is more than a year old, the battery capacity will no longer be the same due to the intensity of use. In this case, the article "How to extend the working time of a mobile phone" is for you.

3. Delay during shutdown.
If you turn off your mobile and see a delay, a backlight that does not go out for a certain time, or the phone simply refuses to turn off, all these signs indicate a possible listening.

4. Incomprehensible activity.
During the operation of the phone, the backlight suddenly lights up for no reason, various applications are loaded, spontaneous turning on or off occurs - this is a high probability of using the phone without your knowledge. Perhaps someone is manipulating the phone remotely. But such a failure can also occur due to network interference.

5. Constant background noise.
Usually the phone that is being tapped interferes with the conversation. If you hear an unusual noise from your mobile when you are not using it, this is a signal that you are being watched.

6. Frequent interference.
If your phone is placed near a TV or other electrical appliances, it may interfere with them through the presence of foreign objects in its case. In some cases, this is normal, but if you use a phone. If not, then you are "under the hood".

7. Learn to be a disinformer!
If you are sure that you are the owner of the tapped phone, try to give out invented information in order to bring the spy to "clean water". Share the secret of your fear with someone close to you. Transmit false information using the phone, if it becomes known to outsiders, you must have been tapped.

8. Ask for help.
If you believe that the phone is being tapped, seek help from specialists. The police are a great option, they have the necessary equipment with which you can check the mobile for wiretapping.

Don't be alarmed if most of these items apply to your phone! After all, the chances of getting hooked on an ordinary person are very small. Phone-related problems can be caused by poor communication, firmware, or a worn out battery. But if you want to be completely safe, lock your mobile with a password and never let go of it.

What to do if you hear an echo in the phone during a conversation? And in general, why is this phenomenon observed? These questions are being raised more and more frequently. In fact, telephone echo can be due to various reasons. Sometimes it turns out to resolve the situation without any problems, in some cases it is not possible to do this. In general, if the subscriber has the described problem, he will have to go through several scenarios, the diagnosis of which is very difficult without outside help. So what to do if you hear an echo during a conversation? Why is this happening? How dangerous is the phenomenon?

Is it subject to adjustment?

The first step is to understand how realistic it is to solve the problem. Perhaps there is no way to eliminate the echo in the receiver that interferes with the conversation?

As practice shows, echo during a telephone conversation is a phenomenon that usually needs to be corrected. And without radical action. Accordingly, do not be afraid if this problem occurs. But what causes the echo in the tube? And what to do in this or that case?

Marriage

The most obvious option is a manufacturing defect. Relevant for new phones. It is likely that the device was initially defective. As a result, an echo is heard during a conversation.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that the problem begins to bother the buyer immediately after the first call. That is, from the very beginning. You can act in several ways:

2. Exchange the gadget in the store and write a complaint about the purchase of a defective product. Relevant if the echo is detected immediately after purchase. Usually sellers quickly exchange defective phones for serviceable ones.

However, marriage is only one of the reasons. It has already been said that it is detected immediately after the start of using the phone. What are the situations in real life most often?

Volume

Why is there an echo in the phone during a conversation? Sometimes subscribers complain about this situation. Moreover, regardless of the services of which operator they use. Why is the interlocutor or yourself heard repeatedly?

It is likely that the volume of sounds is to blame. Or, as people say, phone settings. The other party's speaker or microphone is too loud. Because of this, the indicated problem occurs.

"The Wire"

Why is there an echo? If the device has been used for a long time, it is possible that a bug is installed on the mobile phone. It helps someone to listen in on phone conversations. This is where the echo comes from.

Fortunately, such a situation is a huge rarity. If there are suspicions of wiretapping, you can take the mobile phone to a service center, report suspicions and wait for the diagnostics and repairs to be completed. This approach is the fastest, most logical and simple solution. After all, it is very difficult to get rid of the bug on your own.

factory feature

If an echo occurs while talking on the phone, you should not be scared. And immediately think that a low-quality product was bought, too. The thing is that each mobile phone has its own "stuffing". That is, all phones are arranged differently. The cause of the problem may be precisely the factory feature.

speaker

In such a situation, only the service center will help. Or buying a new phone. But we are not talking about the features of the device of the mobile phone. An echo in the phone during a conversation may occur if it is a speaker breakdown.

A fairly common problem faced by subscribers who do not monitor their mobile phones. If the phone has been dropped or dropped into water, it is likely that an echo problem will occur.

That is why after some negative impact on the phone and the appearance of this problem, you need to contact the service center. There the speaker will either be repaired or replaced. Luckily, you don't need to buy a new phone in most cases. But also expect that the repaired speaker will last for a long time also shouldn't.

Housing tightness

An echo in the phone during a conversation can occur when the tightness of the gadget case is violated. The situation does not occur too often, but it is very problematic to deal with it.

If the subscriber is thinking about how to get rid of the emerging echo, you can offer him the following steps:

1. Take the phone to a service center. They will be able to carry out a full diagnosis and fix the problem. Although few people are engaged in correcting the tightness of the case.

3. Change phone. The most logical, though not the most pleasant solution. It is almost impossible to fix problems with the tightness of the device. That is why you often have to buy new mobile phones.

But the options don't end there either. There is another fairly common reason for which an echo will be heard in the phone when talking with the interlocutor. You also need to know about it.

Mobile network operator

It's about the operator. mobile communications. In every city, such companies have a huge number of transmission lines. Because of this, for some operators in certain places, the signal overlaps. From here, an echo appears in the phone during a conversation.

There are several ways to fight. Usually at least one of them is effective:

1. Change of location. Often the echo is heard only in certain parts of the city. In this case, it is better to avoid such areas.
2. Change mobile carrier. Another way that helps to permanently get rid of the problem. Usually it is used by the population. Especially now, when you can easily change the operator mobile network while maintaining old number phone.
3. Call to the operator. Alternatively, if echo is not a constant problem, you can call your service provider and then report the problem. Be sure to name a place where it is inconvenient to communicate with interlocutors. The operator will try to correct problems on the line or explain why the echo is being heard.

Perhaps this is the end of all the most common reasons for the appearance of an echo during a conversation. How to act in this or that case, now it is clear. In reality, everything is not as scary as it seems.

Reboot

However, before sorting through all the previously listed problems, it is recommended to use a little trick. Occasionally, an echo can be heard on a phone call due to minor system glitches. Both on the line at the operator, and in the mobile itself.

Turning the phone off and on again will help fix the situation. Or you can end the call and call the other party again. It is still recommended to use the restart of the smartphone. Such a technique, as practice shows, helps quite often.

Results

What conclusions should be drawn? There are many reasons why an echo occurs during a conversation. It can be very difficult to diagnose it on your own. But most often this phenomenon occurs due to:

• phone settings;
• violations of the tightness of the device case;
• factory marriage;
• careless attitude to the phone / due to the long service life of the device;
• the work of the telecom operator;
• assembly features;
• listening to conversations;
• network or phone outages.

Most of the time, you can fix the problem. And as already mentioned, only in some cases it is necessary to act radically.

You hear an echo, that is, a reflection of the signal. This interference is a consequence feedback when the caller's microphone at the other end of the "wire" picks up your voice signals from the speaker. It is not your device that is to blame, but the interlocutor's device. If the "complaint" came from your interlocutor, then you can recommend reducing the volume of your phone's speaker. If your phone is "packed" in a case, remove it or replace it with a more fitting one.

Not always the phone acts as a hindrance to conversations. Interference can be with operators of cellular networks. In this case, you need to contact the subscriber service of your operator, explain the situation and wait for the results of eliminating the interference.

Why do you hear yourself when talking on the phone?

The most common cause of an unpleasant phenomenon, when you hear your own words after a short delay when talking on the phone, is being in an area of ​​​​unsure reception. In other words, the signal is too weak. To combat this problem, there are special echo suppressors. An echo canceller is a device that identifies human speech coming from one end of a connection and suppresses all signals going back.

It is worth noting that a reverse echo may appear when listening to a conversation. However, this reason can be considered unlikely.

Also, the fault of the constant reflection of speech may be a software failure in the phone. In this case, it is better to contact the repair shop to diagnose the problem.

Experts identify another reason for the occurrence of an echo when talking on the phone - a "gray" (fake) or a very simple mobile phone. In this case, the solution to the problem will be to buy another high-quality model. This effect occurs when there is a mistake in the design of the mobile phone case and the manufacturer's desire to save on a special electronic element.

Among the causes of echo when talking on a mobile phone is the presence of a transceiver nearby base station your operator. To solve the problem, just change the location.

In fact, if a reflection of a conversation (echo) occurs, it will be enough just to call back or reduce the sound of the speaker and the echo during the conversation will disappear.

★★★★★★★★★★

You need to buy a phone with echo protection.

If you hear an echo, you can end the call. The echo is caused by the inability to fully connect two phones together, i.e. due to weak signal the phone starts echoing.

Mute call phone and redial, the only way solve the problem of.

Why do I hear myself when talking on the phone?

In addition to the above reasons for the occurrence of echo during a conversation on mobile phone, maybe another reason: wiretapping. No matter how strange it may sound. But not always echo during a conversation can be the cause.

This can also happen due to the subscriber being between two network coverage areas, that is, the canopy cannot determine which network the phone belongs to.

at Android platform you can hear yourself, phonite, crack, or any other defects appear. What to do and how to fix.

Many users face the problem when phone either tablet on Android based starts to freak out. It seems that nothing happened that could cause a malfunction, but it does not work as it should.

For example, the device has problems with the fact that during a conversation (call) any distortion or defects in the transmission / reproduction of sound appear. The reason for this may be:

1st: Software failure - i.e. the problem is crash software

2nd: hardware failure- i.e. the problem lies in the "hardware" (i.e. - replacement or restoration of spare parts of the gadget is required)

However, do not rush to get upset - in 90% of cases with problems with the operation of the data transmission and playback system and directly adjusting and adjusting incoming and outgoing calls smartphone a or android tablet is to blame software failure, which you can fix on your own.

Fixing a software bug:

Method 1. Pretty simple - go to "settings", find there « backup and reset" in which you choose full reset settings to delete all data. Be careful, using this method often turns out to be effective, but it entails deleting all photos, contacts, passwords, music, games, videos and, in general, all information stored on your smartphone e or tablet e. Therefore, first save everything you need by connecting the gadget to your computer. If this method does not suit you, or if the problem persists after it, see Method 2.

Method 2.

Based on solving problems with communication and network reception phone ov and tablet ov based Android method implementation of additional software. Utilities that control all processes inside gadgets. Today, there are quite a few of them, however, the fewer functions an application contains, the more, as a rule, it is effective. Best controls system functions, corrects, and corrects everything possible mistakes settings and synchronization is small and easy to handle, free utility for Android devices. Download app from Google Play and you can see its additional options in the description. After installing the application, it remains only to launch it. Further, from you, in principle, nothing more is required. The application will take full control of the device functions. (By the way, among other things, the gadget will start charging 20% ​​faster, and its performance will also increase significantly, which will affect the loading and operation speed of all applications, games, and the system as a whole. On average, after scanning, the system runs on 50% faster.)

• In addition, it is worth cleaning the system with a NORMAL antivirus. Best of all, it copes with this task kaspersky antivirus , which you can download. Unlike the "multi-cleaner", the software " Kaspersky Laboratories"paid, therefore, if you do not have the opportunity to install such protection, you can skip this step ...

Method 3.

Changing the device software, or, as it is also called "re firmware ".This method, as a rule, requires certain skills and is solved by contacting the Service Center. For the independent implementation of this task, you need to contact the manufacturer's website of your device, download the utilities necessary for the firmware and the firmware itself, and then reinstall it on your gadget.

If none of the methods brought results, unfortunately, you will have to contact Service center for repair of your tablet a or smartphone a.
