GrooveIP

I have been using GrooveIP to make calls and my wife called her mother in the Philippines a few times. It works well but her mother hears an echo when she talks. We had her on the speakers with the Nexus sitting on the table. Is the feedback coming from the speakers, back into the microphone? Is there a setting to eliminate this? My wife used some old Blackberry earphones with a built-in microphone and that seemed to eliminate the echo but she wasn't thrilled with being wired to the Nexus. If we can't get this working better I guess I am back to going to the store to buy phone cards.

This is from the GrooveIP FAQs on their website, http://snrblabs.com/snrb/Apps/GrooveIP/FAQ.aspx:

The person I'm talking to hears echo or hears themselves speak:
* Try enabling the Echo Canceler from the Audio/Echo settings
* Ensure Echo Post Processing is enabled and the echo tail setting is set to auto detect (unless you know the proper tail size)
* The Synchronize Voice checkbox under Troubleshooting can improve the Echo Canceler performance
* Try lowering both the Speaker Volume and Mic Gain settings

Thanks for the quick reply.
Another dumb question, are these GrooveIP settings or are these in the Nexus settings somewhere?

Thank you, found it. I enabled echo canceler, I'll try it from here and see if I need to dive into the other settings. I appreciate the help.
