Sound randomly stops on calls - Epic 4G General

This is a new issue that I'm having, just over the past couple of days. When I'm on a call, randomly a few minutes in, the other person can no longer hear me. It doesn't happen on every call, just some and I have no idea what's causing it. Has anyone else had a similar issue?

what rom are you running?

I have a few times but I think it is more of a network issue because I have a blackberry on sprint for work and out does the same thing even with full signal.

I'm running stock. Never rooted.

It must be a network thing, I am having the same issue, but only a couple of times over the last 5 days.... I am running stock DK28

I've had a similar problem start this week where there is no audio when beginning a call. Very frustrating, never had an issue before, have been on Syndicate 2.1 rom since november. One time I eventually got a CDMA failure call dropped popup error, so hopefully it's just temporary network issues. (50 miles apart)

have the same thing going on.... if i turn on the speakerphone then they can hear me again. but you have to talk on speakerphone for the remainder of the call.
i thought it was a rom issue, i run AOSP 3.1 though.... seems kinda strange for it to be a network deal. wonder if there is something up with the phones??

Is anyone else having any problems receiving calls?

It seems like I've been having on and off problems getting calls ever since I updated to 2.1. Right now I'm on DamageControl v1, but I've had this on the others too. Sometimes my calls go straight to voicemail or the caller receives a message that my number is not available at all! This morning all three things happened back-to-back when my girlfriend called me (first voicemail, then disconnected number, then it went through). I am using my phone with an Airave system, but I never had this problem in the past or on my other phones with with it. I have yet to test it in a non-Airave area.
yep.. been experiencing the same thing the past couple of days... exact situation this morning as u.. my wife called a couple of times and went thru the same thing before she actually got thru to me... im also using DC v1.0 ROM..

I have the straight to VM problem alot, even running stock. I think it is a problem with sprints network but with several calls in to them I get no where at all. The only thing they do is have me wipe and reset and they sent me an airave. All of which have done nothing to help the situation.
I think if more people call and complain then maybe Sprint will get a clue and fix the problem. Or not, after all this is Sprint that we are talkin about.
I had the same problem. Here is what I did:

I had this issue when i used to run android on my old winmo phone. If this is a 2.1 rom causing the issues i may wait for awhile to install.
I have had that issue on occasion since I took the phone out of the box stock rom or rooted or 2.1.

Really? Ive never had the issue on stock or running a custom 1.5 rom?
yes I have, not all the time just every once in a while.

Can't Hear

Hi I am having an issue with my Evo where first couple of times the callers can't hear me. It usually goes away after 2 times but then if the phone sits around for about 40-60 minutes then it seems like the cycle starts over again.
I was using Fresh 3.3.0.1, but then I switched to CM 6.1 hoping that the issue would go away, but its still there. Anyone have something similar or know how I can solve this.
That happens to me about half the times I use the updated Voice Search app to call a number. No problems otherwise.
hmm..I wonder if I should get the phone unrooted and fixed by Sprint...its really annoying...

Cannot hear other person during call?

So usually after the phone has been in my pocket a bit, if I try to make a call, the screen and everything looks normal, but I hear no ringing. I don't know if it is actually going through but I doubt it.
Hang up, call right back... the phone starts ringing as normal.
I do this more and more often lately. Have to call everyone twice.
Has anyone else ever had this?
I've had this happen on several different ROMs, and I've been using 2.2 since it was publicly available.
same thing is happening to me, figured it was one of the bugs with dk28, hoping the official release will fix this annoyance
+1 same bug---same hope
I've been having it at least since DK17, maybe earlier.
I have the same problem.
Same problem as soon as I installed DK28. Hopefully they have these kinks worked out in the final release.
had this same problem from long ago. but i heard it was part of the delay for then the call is being sent 2 the tower... or something along those lines
Also intermittently having this issue, but it happened with my previous, non-android phone, too. I'm pretty sure the problem isn't the phone or its software.
I'd believe it was the network easier if hanging up and calling back didn't fix it...
Same problem. When I try the first time and hear nothing, no ringing or anything, the person Im calling says their phone rang and they answered it but heard nothing.

I've had this happen also.
So why is this not widely discussed? Did everyone think it was just them? I know that's how I felt...
This is a pretty serious issue. Is anyone on stock ROM?
i have this same issue and it only started happening once i flashed froyo. quantum rom. i dont think this was happening on eclair from what i remember but also people do say their phone rings. this is kinda annoying.
I'm using Quantum, too...
this started happening to me right when I installed DK28.
I had this issue too when I installed DK28.
I just flashed back to DI18 cause it was driving me nuts.
But one thing I found was that if you turn the speaker phone on then off, your good to go.
Have this problem. I have froyo, didn't happen on DK18.
Same here. By the way...I've also had a failed audio issue on voice dialing as well. First call the receving part can never hear me. I have to hang up and call right back manually.
Omg I thought I was crazy! Its been doing this since dk17. It only happens when I call businesses though :/

Okay, this just happened to me on my new flash of Cyanogenmod. So it's either a radio or "didn't wipe cache enough times" problem, right?

call waiting, voicemail, dropped calls

Has anyone else around here experienced a a bug where trying to use call waiting drops both calls? I've seen people mention it else where but never any solution.
Incoming voicemails also seem to cause the current call to drop.
The phone has been replaced a few times and no one at Sprint is any help.
any ideas?
I have been running into that problem since I had my og evo so I always just figured it was a sense problem I don't notice it much on cm but then again I don't use the phone part of my phone much at all

I don't know if you are using a Bluetooth,but mine does that if I'm using a Bluetooth and try to answer from the Bluetooth.I finally discovered if I use the phone to answer it never happens.I was getting really frustrated till I figured this out.

[Q] Unable to make a call and several FC's?

I;m sorry if this has been discussed before but I can't seem to find an answer for it. I have an Epic and it works great except for minor problems usually resolved by looking through the forums. Although my dad has the exact same phone and I put whatever Rom I am currently using on his phone so that he can have a fantastic phone. He has had Frozen 1.1, 1.2 and Randomrom 2.2. They have all been istalled with Journaling on. The rom will work fine but then out of nowhere he will have FC's and will not be able to make phone calls but can still receive them. Any idea what is going on? We have the same phone, modem and rom but he seems to have problems. The only difference I can figure out is that he lives in an area that has NO signal for any carrier and so his phone is constantly switching back and forth from Sprint and roaming which of course drains his battery like crazy. Could that cause the phone to wig out on him no matter which software he is running. Thanks for any help provided.
Do you have an airave? If not Odin back to stock to see if it works then root and flash again.

They do not use an airwave and I have done several odin's and reflashed and still the same problem. I've tried to see if he is doing something before it happens to slueth it out but he it seems to happen at random times. It use to be just tons of FC's but figured it was due to haing journaling off so I fixed that but now he has less FC's sometimes but now with the unable to mae outgoing calls problem. I'm just frustrated because I try to help my family with their smartphones and they have nothing but problems with them but me, the one who actually plays on his phone too much, never has any seriuos problems.
It may just be the No signal area. If there is no signal it can't dial out. If there is no signal for any carrier then you can't even try Roam Control.
