[solved] Earpiece not working? No call volume

Hey guys. I just bought a mytouch 32b from someone. It worked fine for about an hour. Calls worked and everything. Later in the day I couldn't hear anything from the earpiece. No call volume or anything. The external speaker works fine though. Anyone have a similar situation? Thanks.
edit - let thisdie. solved...

How did you solve it?

First I tried completely wiping and re-flashing the rom. It worked for a bit but some calls wouldn't be heard. What fixed it completely was using setcpu to keep the clock speed up. Idk but it worked for me. 576/352 screen on. 528/122 screen off.

I am having the same issue, and in my attempts to try and fix this, it's only gotten worse. I used to be able to hear people fine through the speaker phone function, but now I can no longer access that option, and my mic no longer works.
I've tried time and time again to flash and and even bought setCPU on the market in attempts to fix this issue. I've searched, and searched, on Google, on here, for a way to solve this. And it seems like no one has an answer.
Am I wrong?

What rom are you using and do you have any lag??

[Q] No Voice (incoming or outgoing) on Nexus 4?

OK, having a huge problem with my Nexus 4. I'm still running stock kernel/ROM (although I am rooted) and everything about the phone works great EXCEPT for the phone itself! What I mean by this is: everything works (data, texts, tethering, et cetera), I can make and receive calls... but on those calls, there is no sound in *either direction*; when on a call, the mic doesn't pick up my voice, nor does the speaker relay the caller's voice. WTF?
My in-call volume is set to maximum, as checked via Power Toggles.
I've also noticed that the phone has a hell of a time hanging up after a call. For instance, I make a call on the N4 (again, no voice/sound during said call), and when I go to hang up the phone screen simply says "hanging up" and hangs like that for almost a minute. If I try to make another call after that, I get an error "Call Not Sent".
Any ideas how I might be able to track this problem down?
I should also mention that I don't know how long this problem has been present. I really don't use voice calling very much. When I tested the phone when I first received it, I simply made a call from it and to it from our land line and made sure it rang... I didn't think that there might be any issues with the call itself!

I have a brand new N4 that I just rooted using WugFresh toolkit and I see now that I can't hear anything during a call nor can the other person hear anything.
I've tried downgrading to .33 and .27. Also reflashing .48 with no success.
What should I do?

If you are experiencing the same problem I was, it wasn't fixable. I tried everything (reflashing stock, trying different ROMs, etc.)... and apparently it was just a hardware defect. I contacted Google and after explaining the issue (which they hadn't heard about at that point) they shipped me a new phone, which works perfectly.
I would highly recommend not wasting your time trying to diagnose the issue further and get in touch with Google about getting a replacement.
Cheers,
Matt

Thanks a lot for getting back to me. I contacted them and they already sent a replacement unit.
I found a thread on Google forums with six pages of people complaining about this. Apparently is not an isolated problem. Half of the people have the problem after updating to 4.2.2 and the other half (last pages) are all with new phones (4.2.2).

jumped in been a while since I had a play with LS - first impression love the splash screen :good:

Same problem, no warranty
Lucky you guys who were still under warranty. My Nexus 4 is 2 years old now and I just got this problem. It seems to be software related. The mic and speaker works for anything else other than placing phone calls. Furthermore, even if I plug a standard headset thought the 3.5mm jack, still no luck. The same with bluetooth headset.
It's interesting that when this problem started I would be able to place or receive a call once per reboot, i.e., after rebooting, the speaker and mic would work on the first call, but not for the second call unless I reboot the phone. Now I doesn't work even after reboot.
Gargabe?

Hi,
I have exactly same problem with sound during call. I'm using CM11. It doesn't matter if it is nightly or snapshot, simply there is no sound during call. Everything except calling works fine - music, ringing etc.
Restart didn't fork for me and also deleting application data has no effect. I've found only one solution - factory reset approximately each week. It is obvious that this is only workaround and not real solution.
I don't know if it is HW or SW issue. Strange think is that factory reset helps.
Any ideas are welcome. Thank you in advance.

I have the same problem.
Reverting to stock solved the issue form me until a fix for CM11 will be found.
BTW there is a bug report for CM11.
I can't post links but the code is CYAN-5728 on the CM bugtracking system.

The issue is with Google Play Services. more specifically the checkin service within it.
(this is from the CM bugtracking system , code: CYAN-5728, as stated by pupillo)
download/install the app "DisableService" from the play store. (must be rooted)
under the [System] tab, browse to "Google Play Services", tap it, then browse to "checkinservice", uncheck. (it will prompt for superuser, allow)
restart phone
try placing/receiving a call

none of u guys spent even 1 second to check this forums for answer. there have been at least 2-3 threads about this issue, all of them containing/linking to the fix.

No audio during call

Hi, since few days I have a big issue on my i9505: i have no audio on a call, nobody hear me and I don't hear anybody, it happens also with headset and loudspeaker. I've tried with a full wipe, with a factory reset, restoring a stock firmware, nothing works..Any ideas?
Thank you

Hey there. You need to get the phone replaced.
I had this problem and reset the phone, took battery out, factory reset etc. No luck.
O2 took it back and "fixed it" saying "flashing the firmware is always recommended". Came back working then a week later it went again. All in call volume gone but games and video were fine.
Sent it back to O2 and got a call from the engineer saying No Fault Found so I explained the issue and again got the phone back "fixed". It lasted another week or so and in call volume went.
I got online to O2 via the chat and contacted customer services. They sent me a new SIM, didn't work. So I hit the roof and explained why I wasnt happy paying for an expensive phone when I couldnt make calls.
Anyway they sent me a new phone (door exchange) and (fingers crossed) the problem has happened again. Although I've had the new phone less that two weeks......
Its a hardware problem.
Oh and I posted on the O2 Community and on here and googled the internet and NO ONE had experienced it. There were a couple of occurrences on an S3 but that was it.
So I'm actually pleased its happened to someone else (sorry).

Call problems

Had to send my SP back for repair today, i'm on o2 uk and had nothing but problems calling out with this handset.
Not only that people cant get through either and it just diverts directly to voicemail!
Changed the firmware, done a fresh install, I know its not a sim card issue as I have used it in a different phone with no issues
Anyone else had a similar problem?

did u find any solution?

Oh god I hope mine doesn't start acting that crazy, I mean lately I too had problems with calls as in automatically turning on the speaker when aswering.. also the front camera has stopped working unless I restart the phone, then everything is normals for a couple of hours

I've got exactly the same problem with speaker turning on when I answer a call. I was planning to do a complete reset of the phone this evening hoping to solve this one.

Me too, it's just I kinda hoped I could wait the new update out though it was quite awkward in the metro today when my gf screemed out of the phone when I answered.
Any good backup app you have on mind?

I took a backup with PC companion. You can backup sms and contacts, and I wouldn't recommend to restore apps to avoid restoring the bug
Do 2 backups, 1 complete and one with only sms and contacts so you can choose what to restore and try.
At the moment the problem seems to be solved, but more time is needed due to the fact that it wasn't happening 100% of the time on my device.

Downgraded back to 4.1.2 as I thought it might be a firmware issue, (I did have the bug where it answered direct to loudspeaker too but I believe that is a 4.3 bug)
Still had issues with calls not connecting and not being able to receive calls, so I have sent the phone back for repair.
Today I have received an email stating the phone could not be repaired and I will be getting a replacement phone, I don't know whether this will be a new handset or a reconditioned one yet

The problem is caused by the Chrome update. Uninstall all updates and disable the app, and your phone won't switch to speaker anymore

Sometimes when I answer my incoming calls it goes to speakerphone.Then I have to restart my XSP to get out of this problem.

Phone call problem

Anyone else find that every once in a while you'll call someone and won't be able to hear anything and they won't hear you until you call them back? Happens when I call out from time to time. Very frustrating.
Tried wiping dialer data. Also tried reinstalling app updates from the play store, no change.

I'm actually on ATT, which means it's probably not carrier related. Wonder if anyone knows of any alternate dialers that would work? Could see if it's app related or driver related.

I've done this but found my phone was on mute. Next time it happens check to see if that's the case. I think maybe it is easy to hit with your face?

I had the same issue but it would work with some numbers and not with others. I found a setting under the caller that was turned on for hearing aid support. Once I turned that off, it seems that my issues have gone away.
10 hours into the phone (got mine this AM) and I like the device but still not a fan of the camera, even with the Google camera port. Some things essentially (intentional) seem half baked or not thought completely through.
I just downloaded the MS Launcher and I have to say, I like it a lot. I'm considering keeping that the stock launcher.b

Same issue, my face it's the mute button all the time.

Happened twice in a day, I had to reset everything and still same if I restore all apps from back and/or if I connect my phone to car bluetooth --> safe unlock.
