Verizon To Droid Early Adopters: Your Lousy Audio Will Be Fixed Please Don’t Return Your Droid
For a company like Motorola to create the Droid smartphone and have one of the biggest flaws be lousy audio quality is shocking. Not everyone complains about it — and my theory behind that is there are two kinds of Droid owners – those that notice the poor audio and those that just choose to live with it. The Droid has been bashed senseless on the Motorola forum by owners for recurring serious problems with echo, computer sounding voice, clipped speech, muffled speech and just about every other nasty audio problem you could imagine. Here’s hoping that the promised patch fixes the problem. It’s too bad the patch probably won’t be out before December 6 which is the 30 day return window the the early adopters have to bring back any malfunctioning Droid.

I'm on my Second Droid in less than a week from getting as a Christmas gift.
It has static, muffled noise and others on the end of the call can't hear me at times.
I have done the fixes I've read online at forums too.
One from Here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-general-...
and one “trick: Disable “voice privacy”.
Still have poor audio. I will continue to test the phones in different situations, but
I may have to give up and get another phone or go back to my old LG! Boo…
Other than the actual phone (which should be a no brainer)
the phone features are great.
I've gone through two replacements (I'm on my 3rd) and the audio quality has not been better on any of the three. It's “robotic blown speaker” quality…. I'm resigned to living with it as I think it's a flaw of the Droid that not all users notice.
Yes! I think you are right and totally agree with your statement : “– those that notice the poor audio and those that just choose to live with it.”
Phone rooted, running Android 2.1(from the Nexus One… 2 weeks before Nexus One was released lol) and changed VOCODE… and I have zero problems with the sound quality. Speaker phone is great and have noticed no poor quality when not using speaker phone, either. I live in Arkansas and have great coverage with this phone. Using it now, tethered with PDANet. Get 2.4Mb 3G speeds at all times. I really haven’t found much of anything to complain about with this phone. Check out youtube for videos of people trying to scratch their screens with keys, unsuccessfully. Best phone I’ve owned and wouldn’t trade it for anything… except maybe the next version of this phone

I wish I could find that perfect sounding Droid. I went through three (still on my third) as well as have listened to various Droids at Verizon and they all sound pretty much the same.
