Distortion in voice - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So I just installed the hercules rom running jelly bean on sg2. I have been getting alot of complaints that my voice sounds distorted when talking to other. I had no problems on my previous rom, and Have re-done this rom many times and it doesnt seem to go away. Anyone have any idea what is causing this?

Go to your phone app. Menu button. Settings. Enable the noise suppression. You're good to go

Someone should make a giant bold sticky in the QA section or maybe a banner on every page in our forum.. However I still think people would overlook it.

Linking notification and ring volumes?

I feel like a complete noob asking this, but on the stock s3, is there a way to link the notification and ring volumes? I haven't found the setting if it is possible. And if it's not.... wtf Samsung! I hope the lack of this feature gets your employees frowned upon when they are at work and their phones go off with a super loud notification tones during meetings so that you guys don't forget this simple program in the future >=[

Check settings -> sound -> volume. I'm not on stock so it might be wrong but Frosty is very close to stock when it comes to settings so I think it should be there.

I like them separate. They're for two very different things.
Oh, I'm sorry for my mistake. For some reason I thought that you were talking about something else... I need to stop spending time on xda during nights.
On stock you can't link those together. Maybe there is some app which will do it for you.

Ugh... hella dumb of Samsung to leave out the OPTION. I guess this is just another reason to start trying out new ROM's.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yea, this is very annoying. In most situations, I want my notifications and ringtone volumes to be linked, and there is no option for that.
Are there any apps that will link the Notification volume to the same level as the ringtone volume?
FINALLY
This app solves the problem! Credits to the developer, can't thank him enough bcos it was such a pain to find something that works for this simple problem...

I really appreciate you finding that app. I've missed the linked volumes since my HTC Glacier.
Tasker can do this, if you have it.
Is it easy through Tasker?
Thanks

[Q] what does the swagger option do in the ktoonz ROM for the at&t S3?

This is a noob question but what does the swagger option do in this ROM from the pull down menu, now I know my way around this ROM but I'm not entirely sure what the swagger option does?

It actually slows down your data. Tiny elves inside the hat hold your data hostage so the rest of us who didn't turn it on can browse freely. PERFECT CRIME
Toggles the, "Way Known to The Emperor".
It doesn't really do anything it's just a little Easter egg or something.
It says in the FAQ, that it serves no purpose. It is also designed to not turn off. Why would you want to get rid of your swagger?

Annoying

Recently I've flashed a couple roms and my phone started doing this thing where it reads (outloud) the number and the text that I recieve.
It's quite annoying, I've been through all the settings and can't find anything pertaining to it.
Can anyone help me with this?

Must be some other app allowing that to happen (if it's not Talkback or Driving Mode).

Sms popup doesn't read aloud. Check svoice settings I forget what its called but theres a audio option in there that reads whats on the screen. I think its called voice mode or audible mode or something buried in the svoice settings
I like to break stuff!

just to be clear, you mentioned that this is happening across several ROM flashes...
are you TB'ing apps back w/ data? or does this actually happen on a clean flash?
All else fails, nandroid and add apps one by one. What ROM(s) are you flashing?

Any chance this is a feature that got turned on in Google voice?

This is happening over a clean, factory reset rom.
But usually yes I use Titanium.

The last 2 ive had on (when it started) was on Digiblur's ROM.
Now I'm on Slesh's Tweaked Odexed ROM and it's still doing it.

It has to be a feature in touchwiz. I work for sprint and one of our display note 2's is doing the same thing. We can't figure it out either.

Maybe so. I usually stick with AOSP. Never had an experience like that. I'm not touting one over the other. Just curious what sammy feature would do that. I'll see what I can dig up later.

Apparently the app has to know this not just the OS. People look at me funny when I appear to be petting my phone.

It does I solved your issue use a different service. That's not hard to comprehend at all. Clearly the built in screen shot isn't that great so use a different service. There are plenty of options on the play store.

Thanks again for ur response but I insist this does not solve my issue since I want the STOCK SCREENSHOT SERVICE to have a better quality and I bet that changing the build. U can do that unfortunately I don't know which properties to change for it to be done and that's why I ask the question here to see if any DEV could lead me into the right direction otherwise I would've just go to the play store and download one of those screenshot apps u mention!!

Why try to figure it out? As an app thats like 80kb and does a better job dude clearly that rom dev didnt want it to be best quality. You could have already taken a thousand of screenshots in perfect quality if you had just downloaded an app.
I don't understand you reason to use the built in service. Your not benefiting At all.

The reason why I want the built in is because the apps either put an icon on the screen or u have to use a shake movement for it which makes it bad since I'm always moving and the damn phone start taking screenshots if I find one that I could just merge it into the power menu or the screenshot combination buttons then yes it works For me
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I honestly can't see a difference from the screenshots I take with the built in feature and the original screen. They look the same when viewed on my phone unless I send them thru the messaging app which compresses them.

See thats easy to fix. Dude in most apps give you the option to turn it off any other ways to do it. And when I try to take a screenshot with power menu it would hit pause on games and bring me to a menu. Unlike using an app where it doesnt have that issue.

My screen shots are crystal clear and as mentioned, they only get blurry when i try to send them due to compression

an app will not embed it to the power menu thats done within the ROM itself ask the Rom Dev to bake it in.
But an app like screenshot by Kastor Soft with the nexus icon for the app is really good.
