please see my other reply regarding how to get a sensible set of settings. My settings would be no use to you as I turn down from default not up. I suspect the variations in how loudly people speak and how they position the phone relative to their head have more to do with the need for different settings than variations in the handsets themselves. We would need to do a lot of measurements to find out though. Normally phone handsets get around this problem by using automatic gain controls. There is one in the Wolfson audio codec, but I have never managed to get it to help. I think one of the openmoko hardware guys said it isn't any use for the signal levels we have, but I haven't checked the datasheet of poked the board with a scope to be sure. There is probably also such a control in the Calypso, but we have no means of using it (unless the project for an open calypso firmware makes some sudden and unexpected progress). _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
