I tried it and did notice that things might be a little crisper and there seemed to be less background noise, but I couldn't really control the other person's reception or environment so it could all just be nothing.

I heard of a similar thing with the dinc, some people reported it helped some didnt know if it helped. But I havent done them (the one for the dx or dinc) ,...... yet , just cuz I got good call quality already ha

I haven't used my phone yet since the post. There's some other stuff in there that could be useful to somebody. The article has an interesting link at the bottom there. Just stuff to play with I guess.

I tried this on stock and it worked. But it wouldn't work on any rom I've tried

For anyone who was wanting to know....I did this & it really does work!

My calls were clear before, but now if I wasn't holding the cell phone in my hand...I would swear I was on a landline.

It does work until you hit a newer tower that does not support this OLDER audio codec. It is clearer because it has less compression

Just FYI

Just FYI...you actually have it backwards. The phone is by default set to EVRC which is the older audio codec (it was developed in 1995). EVRC-B is the newer technology. I haven't had any dropped calls since making the switch, only crystal clear calls instead of just clear calls.

Enhanced Variable Rate Codec B - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ah you are correct. So if you hit an older tower. All I know is we have plenty of people on another forum that did it and got silence

That's odd....I live in the rural midwest & it has never happened to me. We would have the older tower technology around here because we are a long way from getting LTE coverage.

I'm sorry, but I call BS on that. Do you have a link to that forum or thread?

Is there any way to get these settings to stick on Gingerbread .596 after a reboot?

Wow I was wondering this myself today at lunch! On a mission, to the clouds!!

If my call quality was sub par, I would do it. I'm aware of some other special numbers that tweak the radio.

Well in crowded restaurants I can barely here who I'm talking to which is a bummer. I've noticed that the Vocoder settings are gone from Gingerbread. :-(

anybody else miss the classic comeback from Dallas?

 

[Johnly]

Like I say, if mine did that, I would try it too. Yup, GB has some changes mang.
