OK, back to the drawing board. In the Prius (I had an '05 for two years), all models have a display whether or not they have NAV. That's not the case with the Camry, or Highlander for that matter.

Re: Bluetooth microphone weak - solved
 

The microphone is by the overhead switch that toggles the light between door/on/off. I had the same issue and wrote up this after finally getting the problem solved:

Setting Bluetooth sound level on 2007 Camry Hybrid w/ Navigation

In my '07 Camry Hybrid w/ Nav, my Motorola V3 Razr paired fine, and I could hear people fine when using handsfree, but people I called were always asking me to speak up. I couldn’t find a microphone sensitivity control in the user menus. I called Toyota service and they told me how to bring up the diagnostic screen (a function reserved for the service technicians). There I was able to adjust the Bluetooth "send voice level". Following are the instructions:

-Turn on car power (doesn’t need to be started)
-Press Map button (hit I Agree first if needed)
-Press Silver “Disp” button (bottom right side of display – physical buttong)

-A kind of divided screen appears with “Display” on top and contrast/brightness on bottom. While this screen is displayed, do the following very fast:

-Alternately touch the screen under the Display line, then above the Contrast line. Keep doing that over and over until the diagnostic screen appears. If it doesn’t work, keep trying. It took me a few tries. Touch the top, then the bottom, then the top then the bottom, all very quickly. Using two fingers might be too quick, as that didn’t work for me. I used my pointer finger. There is no icon, you just have to stay under the top line and above the bottom line.

The System Check Mode screen appears
-Touch Menu in upper right
-Touch Bluetooth Tel Check
-Touch Hands Free Volume Quality Set
-Change the “Send Voice Level to a higher number (press the up arrow next to it).
-Get back to the main menu
-Turn the car power off (there’s no other way that I see to get out of the Diagnostic screen).

The “Send Voice Level” on my ’07 Camry was set at zero. I changed it to 3 (5 is max). I then called my voicemail using handsfree, left a test message, played it back, and my voice was much louder. I haven’t tested it on the road yet.

Re: Bluetooth microphone weak
 

You can exit this menu by holding down the physical "display" button for about 5 seconds. This will "reboot" the nav system, bringing you back to the "I agree" page.

Re: Bluetooth microphone weak
 

hello fellow tch owners,

Please provide solution for adjusting mic volume for NON-NAVIGATION cars.

I repeat mic adjustment for NON-NAVIGATION TCH

Thank you and have a nice day.

Re: Bluetooth microphone weak
 

It works! Great Job. I asked my Dealer, last week he suggested changing phone!? I like my Samsung i730 PDA, now my wife (very honest person) can hear me well. Thanks.

Re: Bluetooth microphone weak
 

No takers, darn!!! I asked the same question once before, but it seems no-one has been able to solve this with non-NAV versions so far...
