It's a phone, build to receive calls.....Anyway, you can switch to airplane mode before starting a game. It ensures you won't be disturbed during gameplay.

Why would I do that? Like you said, it is a phone, i want to receive calls, but why not play too? I just said it lags 'cause on my S3 it doesn't...

I do call my friend and play Shadowgun Deadzone together while the call is on. No Lag at all.

If I call a friend and start the game I don't have any problem as well, but when I'm playing a game and in that time i'm receiving a call and let's say I reject it, or answer it or the caller ends it, when the game returns, it kinda lags...

Warning Wing owners: callers can hear you while phone rings!

A word of caution to fellow T-Mobile Wing owners:
I've found out that (occasionally) when my phone is ringing, the microphone is on and the caller can hear everything! My wife mentioned that she notices this when she calls. She can hear the ringer, and can hear me talking to others BEFORE I answer the phone! This can be really bad! The last thing I need is someone calling and hearing me mutter "What the #$%^ does this $%^& want now?" Plus it gives a big feeling of lack of privacy.
I thought surely it was a fluke, so called my self via landline and found it happened about 1 out of 10 or 15 times.
My next thought was it was software - some 3rd party app or tweak had caused it, so I hard reset back to the default stock ROM and still had the same problem. I installed a few different cooked ROMs, and still had the same problem.
The next troubleshooting step is to rule out hardware. My brother and coworker also use a Wing. I tried the same test and found the same issue there, so it wasn't unique to my device.
I called T-Mobile support to see if there was anything they could do, and they gave me a few bonehead suggestions: swap sim cards, hard reset, make sure the battery is fully charged...
Since this issue occurs:
1. With a clean stock ROM
2. With different cooked ROMs
3. On multiple devices
I don't really know what can be done about this. All I can do is watch my mouth while my phone is ringing until the T-MO Diamond or whatever Android phone they release comes out...
Anyone have any ideas? All you other Wing owners may want to try this yourself, or ask someone who calls you often if they've noticed it!

oh wow no wonder.
its happend to me before.
but only once so im good.
thanks for clarification
This happens to me quite frequently. If you quickly put the phone to your ear when you answer you can hear your ringtone still playing, but hear the person on the other line as well. I think it's more along the lines of a delay in your ringer shutting off rather than the mic turning on.
Just my opinion. Maybe I'm wrong.

I do experience what you're describing, but this is different. If I leave the phone sitting on the counter, then somebody calls me, they can hear my ringer and anything going on around the phone even if I don't touch it.
It's like the phone mic occasionally turns itself on, and the caller hears the open mic instead of the normal dialing tone.

funny thing is i can actually believe that t-mobile said "make sure the battery is fully charged"

Isn't there a setting that says "automatically answer phone after 3 rings"? Could that be it?

But that's the thing... the phone isn't picked up. After about 30 seconds, it rolls over to voicemail and shows as a missed call...

[Q] No sound while calling/receiving calls

Hey guys,
So I got a problem - I can't hear a thing while calling/receiving calls and the other side of the line can't hear what I'm saying as well. The phone was taken care of and didn't crash, so that was unexpected. Feels like a software problem, because both mics don't work. Other than that the phone is functioning properly, music is playing etc.
Did anybody have such a problem or anybody suspects where the problem is?
Thanks

Try flashing latest radio and bootloader.

Yep. You definitely need to update the baseband radio.

Galaxy S7 Edge Gold No Sound

I am facing a problem with my new Galaxy S7 Edge gold where the sound suddenly disappears. (up to 5 times a day)
No Sound at all (notification, earphones , phone ringing, even if i answer the phone i cant hear a thing)
When i close all apps it goes back to normal (yet there is no specific app that when i close it by itself would solve the problem)
Have anyone faced such problem ? should i replace the phone on the warranty although its not a physical problem ?
Please HELP!
If this happened to me and Its not rooted, I wouldnt think twice getting it exchanged.
Did you turn up the volume

Here the same problem i have the S7 edge version. The last day's i lost all my sounds from ringing the phone till music the clock alarm. When i started the phone up again it's gone but for how long tihis is the third time in two day's. I put the latest rom on my phone now from Engeland. But on the forum's i see this problem more times. I hope there will be a solution.
I had this happem to me for the first time last night. Did a reboot and my sound came back. So far it has been working fine.. just hoping that it stays this way.

Having same issue. A reboot fixes it. I noticed that it only happens after a single app I use. In this case a certain game. It is only that app that mutes the sound on the phone. Doesnt happen at any other time. I dont play the game often so its not a big deal for me. No issues with sound otherwise. I have the Gold (FD) version.

I looking also to another forums there also problems but till now no solutions.. Also i take the last new rom on Sammobile

Same issue here, with the F version. I have a certain game that won't release control on the sound. If I already have music playing when I start the game, it keeps going, but once the music app stops for long enough to give up the speaker, the game gloms on, and has to be manually killed to enable anything else to grab the sound. Works against headphones or speakers.
I theorize that this is Game Center related, since my s6 with 6.0.1 and the very same game does NOT have this issue.

Dokkan Battle - the funny thing to me is that I have both BGM and effect sounds OFF.
in my case i found out that a game on my phone called "Diamond Dash" is causing this issue. and it never happened to me again after uninstalling it.
but from what you guys say i see that the Galaxy S7 Edge is facing the same problem with some other games too
hope they will find a fix soon.
I had the same problem until I flashed a different Stock Firmware (Build G935FXXU1APC8)... No problems since thankfully

I do this to but for me the problen is still there with the new firmware. I have it wit real racing 3 but sometimes i lost all the sounds and somethimes not. Very strange, but i was already 1 time to late on my work because i not here the alarm. So the problem is that i not thust my phone on this moment.
My problem is when I have silence on I still hear notifications so I use Do not disturb. I think I've had other sounds issues but I restart my phone every morning so maybe that helps.

Hope this issue will solved in a new update.
Will make a test and see if it continues to happen after playing.
Let's keep updated.

Incoming calls - buzzing sound [video inside]

Hi,
I'm loving my OnePlus 5, but there is a strange behaviour with incoming calls. When the phone is ringing and vibrating, sometimes a really bad buzzing sound occurs every few seconds.
It doesn't happen with every call and I have absolutely no idea what's triggering it. I've thought about the vibration motor, but then it shouldn't only make that sound for some calls.
Anyone else with this issue?
Ok, I've done some tests and can easily reproduce the issue:
It happens when vibration is set to strong, like it is set default for calls, and the phone is lying somewhere. As soon as i touch the phone a little bit or take it in the hand, the sound stops. It cames definitely from the top (right?) of the phone.
It would be nice, if anyone could check if their phone makes the same noises. Either call your phone or simply go to vibrations settings.
I've made a video of the vibration sound on strong settings. Would anyone please be so kind to check it on his/her device? You can hear the strange noise pretty well.
OnePlus support told me it was normal.

Just tried on mine, doesn't have the issue, the support is clearly ****ing with you. If i had this issue, I would just get nuts

Thanks for your reply. I've set vibration to medium as a workaround. It would have been hard to believe every device is doing this ugly noise, especially since you hear it with standard settings for incoming calls.
Nevertheless I'd appreciate any further feedback wether his/ her device is affected or not.
Bro, I'd like to know if this issue got fixed for you? I am commenting because I started noticing this too.

I had to RMA the phone. Unfortunately it's the only solution.
I have 2 days left before my 10-day-replacement policy is over. You're saying, your replacement device doesn't have the issue?
