I was wondering something. It seems ever since I installed this app (along with fakecarkit), headsets don't work like they used to. I could be wrong about this, but I am trying to troubleshoot the situation. It seems that I when I plug a headset in (the generic one that came with the unit), I get complaints from the people I am talking to that they can "barely hear me". This used to never be the case. I also found that when I would stick the phone in my pocket, I could barely be heard (over the headset). It appears that the MIC on the unit itself (not on the headset) is STILL active when I plug in a headset, and therefore, almost seems to take precendence over the input from the headset. When the phone goes into my pocket, all the sound gets muffled, or background noise gets picked up by the mic on the unit. This reduces the sound of my voice coming through the headset mic! Is there a chance that some setting in FakeCarKit treats plugging a headset in like some sort of "car kit", and keeps the base unit's mic active? I dunno what's going on here. I might try uninstalling both TreoGuard, and FakeCarKit to see if this makes the situation go away. Having good functionality of the headset is more important that having the screen turn off during phone calls!
